00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:03.919
This is Gary and Shannon and you're
listening to kf I AM six forty,

2
00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:08.080
the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app. Gary, I'm

3
00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:12.080
so sorry. We really need to
set up a gofund me poor Shannon,

4
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:20.039
and not send her money but espresso
copy because she is at her funniest when

5
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:27.480
she is higher than a kite on
four shots of espresso coffy beans. Poor

6
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:33.320
Gary. Hang in there, Gary, we love you. You're off it.

7
00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:37.039
Yeah, you're off it, she
said. Dang, Shannon woke up

8
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:43.119
and chose violence this morning, girl. Fifty more days, fifty more days

9
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:47.920
until kickof I know, and there
you can take all your aggression out on

10
00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:52.960
the side it. Yes, I
love you, love you back. I

11
00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:55.280
have the countdown in my head as
well. Is that what's going on?

12
00:00:55.320 --> 00:01:02.119
There's definitely some unspent energy that we're
dealing with, so it's throwing espress so

13
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:06.920
when it doesn't help, it's funny. We how we keep track of time,

14
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.000
right? I always say, and
I know your husband feels this way

15
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:11.480
too, because we've talked about it. At the end of the Super Bowl.

16
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:15.560
We always go, oh, look, nine days until pictures and catchers

17
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.200
report or whatever. Yes, the
end of the last out of the World

18
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:22.040
Series, will say, oh,
look, one hundred and nineteen days until

19
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:29.680
pictures and catchers report, is there
a Is there a like All Star break?

20
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:33.120
You think football's right around the corner
because they've got to I mean,

21
00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:36.200
don't they have a game this month? If I was paying attention to baseball,

22
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:38.120
yes, but I didn't even know
last night was the All Star game

23
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:42.359
show. Hey, Otani had a
three run home run for the next I

24
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:47.040
finished watching Receiver on Netflix. Crushed
the ball. He does what he does,

25
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:49.519
It's incredible. It was I mean, his stance, he knew it.

26
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.840
Everybody in the stadium knew it as
soon as he hit it. I

27
00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:57.799
have I just I wonder what that
feels like. I took three videos of

28
00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:00.599
him striking out when we went to
have video of him on my phone,

29
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:06.799
because you just never know when something
special is gonna happen. Iran is denying

30
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.439
our accusations that it was plotting to
kill former President Trump. Yeah, their

31
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:19.199
official statement said this what me CNN
said. Trump had his security boosted weeks

32
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:24.319
ago after authorities here received intelligence about
an alleged Iranian plot against him. Iranian

33
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:32.840
says, what'd they say again what
me called them unsubstantiated, malicious. A

34
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:38.000
Foreign Ministry spokesman says iron strongly rejects
any involvement in the recent armed attack against

35
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:43.719
Trump. Do you see this video
of a cow on the top of a

36
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:47.080
sloped roof, Well, that's so
great, my goodness. If the cow

37
00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:51.199
can do it, so can the
Secret Service. And if I'm the Secret

38
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.199
Service. If I'm a member of
the Secret Service, and I hear my

39
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:59.560
boss say that, I am embarrassed, I don't want to go to a

40
00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:04.599
hot dog party tonight, right because
I feel like I'm too wimpy to get

41
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.639
on a sloped roof. Somebody in
good natured ribbing would come out to you

42
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:12.039
and meet you at the driveway and
escort you in on the off chance.

43
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:15.400
Yet, I know, listen,
and even if you can handle a slope

44
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:17.680
driveway, there's three steps on the
ad, I don't know if you can

45
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:23.360
see the front door through that tree. And again, this is not us

46
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:25.599
making fun of the Secret Service.
Those men and women put their lives on

47
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:32.479
the line. It's whatever management,
whatever management decisions went into what happened on

48
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:39.639
Saturday, awful, awful. There
is discussion about a detonator that was reportedly

49
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:47.520
found near the shooter's body also,
and the explosive materials is as descriptive as

50
00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:52.719
I've seen it that were found in
a van that they believe that he had

51
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:57.240
been driving. So they don't know
if that was going to be part of

52
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:02.800
a distraction, a defense mechanism,
if it was just going to be an

53
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:10.759
attention getter something like that. And
then we also heard from the sheriff in

54
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:15.879
Butler County apparently who knows the law
enforcement officer who saw the shooter on the

55
00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:21.160
roof. Remember this story out about
two officers who were responding to the spectators

56
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:27.079
basically who were reporting that somebody had
climbed up onto the roof with a rifle

57
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:30.839
and then one of the two officers
was able to lift himself up or be

58
00:04:30.879 --> 00:04:33.160
lifted up by the other officer and
kind of grabbed the edge of the roof

59
00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:39.160
and that's when the gunman supposedly swung
the rifle at him and then went back

60
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:44.000
seconds later when the shooting started.
And there are questions about what responsibility that

61
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:47.959
officer has. Is he just supposed
to sit there and literally draw fire from

62
00:04:48.079 --> 00:04:55.000
almost no range at all to bring
attention to the fact that a gunshot would

63
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:58.839
have gone off, and that probably
would have prompted the Secret Service to get

64
00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:02.279
the president off the stage. What
human being, regardless of their training,

65
00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:09.319
would sit there and allow somebody to
shoot them in the head for the greater

66
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:12.480
good. I don't know. There's
just no human instinct. What it would

67
00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:15.560
prompt you to fall back like he
did. Bill Gage is a consultant at

68
00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:21.199
safe Haven Security Group. He's also
a former Secret Service agent. He says

69
00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:28.040
it is clear that the shooter did
an advance run of the target before the

70
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.800
event. Now, he scouted that
rally site. He said, Oswald did

71
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:36.800
it, Hinckley did it. They
all scouted before. He purchased Ammo hours

72
00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:42.639
before the rally. He bought a
ladder at home depot as well. Okay,

73
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:45.519
let's talk about the ladder, because
I feel like the ladder thing is

74
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:51.839
being we need to know there.
I have seen pictures of two different sides

75
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:56.439
of the building. One of them
appears to be kind of a fixed maintenance

76
00:05:56.519 --> 00:06:00.319
kind of ladder that's built onto a
side of a building, and the other

77
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:02.480
one is an actual ladder that somebody
put up on the side. But that's

78
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:05.800
after the shooting, and I want
to talk to new says it's confirmed he

79
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:09.759
bought a ladder. Well, he
bought a ladder. Bought a ladder in

80
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:13.079
This guy, the security expert,
says, he knew that there were elevated

81
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:15.319
positions. He knew that there would
be buildings off in the distance that he

82
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:19.480
needed a ladder to access. Whether
or not he used it, I don't

83
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:23.639
know, but it's neither here nor
there. It's really not important to the

84
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:31.480
story. The discussion today has been
centered around the tactical team that was using

85
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:40.360
that building, that AGR building as
a staging area, and that is perfectly

86
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:46.439
understandable, acceptable, and anybody looking
at that scene would have said, that's

87
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:50.560
one place that you need to have
officers. But if they were staged inside

88
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:58.839
the building at the time of the
event, that is such a weirdly lackadaisical

89
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:04.199
way. Why is the patrol that
area? Why would anybody be assigned inside

90
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:11.800
that building for what reason? Unless
they were operating the drone that was circling

91
00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:15.800
around overhead to make sure there was
no security threat, unless they were doing

92
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:21.439
some sort of surveillance with equipment in
there looking at different angles of the event.

93
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:26.800
Other than that, what the hell
use are you to be inside at

94
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:30.439
an event like a rally, and
it looks like a simple metal shed,

95
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:32.600
I mean constructed. It's not like
it's going to have a lot of insulation

96
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:39.079
in it necessarily. So those officers
that were inside the building, I would

97
00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:44.480
assume, heard eight shots from an
ar fifteen to ten feet above their heads.

98
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:47.959
I just realized I stole this water
from the kitchen. I didn't pay

99
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:51.959
for it. Do we mean to
call somebody like, is there a way

100
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:56.839
to detox you off of four shots
of espresso? Because I feel like this

101
00:07:56.920 --> 00:08:00.959
is going to be a problem.
I'm now in a life of Yeah,

102
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:05.120
there's cameras in there. I know
I gotta go back and pay for it.

103
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.360
Boy, I was going to talk
about just a quick note local,

104
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:18.040
not even locally, but California wise. A mayor that we've talked about many

105
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:22.560
times, the former mayor of Stockton, Michael Tubbs. Young guy. He

106
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:26.399
started the pilot program, the universal
Basic Income program there. He has announced

107
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:33.559
that he is running for Lieutenant governor
Okay to replace the lady Kuna Loakas who

108
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:37.840
is running for governor. Of course, now he's a champion for that UBI,

109
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:43.080
that universal Basic income and initiatives like
it. They consider him a rising

110
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:48.559
star in the Democratic Party. He
is currently serving as a special advisor to

111
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:56.240
Gavin Newsom for economic mobility that means
and he announced his campaign early today.

112
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:01.080
We should come up with fake names, fake titles for what we do here.

113
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:07.000
Special advisor for yapping, special advisor
not too that's not bureaucratic enough.

114
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.600
We'll have to work. I don't
think we're advisors. I think we're more

115
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:16.279
like we're open. You ever hit
Okay, I have to ask you this.

116
00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:18.279
It's just you and me here ready? Yeah? You ever hid a

117
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:22.240
purchase from your husband? Yes?
Are you kidding? Oh? I'm sorry?

118
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:26.600
Is it Wednesday? Yes? Did
you buy something for Amazon Prime Day

119
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.320
and not tell him? Do I
try to get home early and hide things?

120
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:35.120
Yes? Like packages to come up? Well, you know, I

121
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:39.240
I don't go places anymore to shop. I'm not that I'm a big shopper.

122
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.360
I'm not, never have been,
but I certainly don't like go to

123
00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:45.679
like a mall or anything and buy
a bunch of stuff on a given day.

124
00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:48.039
So I like, I'll buy stuff
from time to time, and then

125
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:54.919
I feel like I'm, you know, unnecessarily buying things, right, I

126
00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:58.480
feel the guilt. The guilt.
There is a story that suggests that stealth

127
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:01.759
shopping is what they call it,
keeping it from your partner. Everyone does

128
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:05.440
this one of my high Oh yeah, I have a girl, you know

129
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.200
Katie. Sure, she hides things
like nobody's business. She has the nanny

130
00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:15.919
hide stuff. I guess. I
don't know if my wife hides stuff like

131
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:22.240
she'll buy toys for her son and
then hide the purchases. Because what happens

132
00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:26.279
there is a conversation that the baby
has too many toys. Oh okay,

133
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:28.720
stuff like that. Yeah, it's
a hole to do. Well if you

134
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:33.399
if you keep stuff from your spouse, we'd love to know about it.

135
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:35.279
You can send us a message on
the talkback feature on the iHeart as.

136
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:41.879
I did get my husband a birthday
gift for him on Amazon Prime because it's

137
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:43.919
Prime Day. Today's the last day
of Prime Day. Can we talk about

138
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:48.960
Prime Day for a second. Yeah? Is there any more manufactured holiday than

139
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:52.120
Amazon Prime Day? They're all manufactured? What the hell do you think Valentine's

140
00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:56.320
Day is? Well, that's that's
my crap. But this is a perfect

141
00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:01.240
hot they it came out of nothing. It it came out of knowing cards

142
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:07.200
for Prime There was a Saint Valentine. I mean, there's no Saint Bezos

143
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:11.960
and why we celebrate him on July
sixth, I don't guess. We celebrate

144
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:16.960
consumerism and good deals a la America. What is it stuff you need?

145
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.559
No, it's never things you need. Gavin Newsom is being hit with a

146
00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:26.600
lawsuit over the story we reported to
you yesterday the state's new gender identity law.

147
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:31.039
He signed that law Monday, banning
schools from notifying parents if their child

148
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:37.440
asks to change their name or pronouns. The Chino Valley Unified School District claims

149
00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:41.159
parents have a right to know and
is the first to file a lawsuit to

150
00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:48.879
Chino Valley Unified. If my kid
was caught having sex with another person of

151
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:56.080
some gender I don't know about,
I would be notified, wouldn't I I

152
00:11:56.120 --> 00:12:01.080
don't know. If my kid was
that's part of the problem in the bathroom,

153
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:07.000
I would be noticed. You're giving
a parental power to teachers over your

154
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:13.679
children. I mean, like,
what if you have a nutcase teacher.

155
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:16.320
We've all had one. I love
teachers. We have families of teachers.

156
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:22.399
Yeah, they don't get paid enough
in my opinion, however, we've all

157
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:26.840
had one nutbag teacher along the way
somewhere, if she was making decisions for

158
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:31.639
my kid, burn it. Oh
mind at all the goodness. That's the

159
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:33.679
thing I don't quite understand. And
listen, I know a lot's been said

160
00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:39.360
lately about Elon Musk and his decision
to take SpaceX out of California and saying

161
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:43.039
that this was the last straw.
I mean that, I don't know why

162
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.200
this would be the other There seems
like there'd be a million other things for

163
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:52.480
a business to make a decision on
to leave California. But the arrogance with

164
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:56.639
which this was passed is what I
think bothers me the most. It doesn't

165
00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:01.039
surprise me knowing who was who has
been behind this, but the idea that

166
00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:07.320
a school or a district or a
politician or I mean, anybody outside of

167
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:13.000
the parent has a bigger role in
that child's life than the parent has just

168
00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:16.559
a narcissism. I mean, well, I'm shocked that he did this because

169
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:22.799
he has been a shadow campaign for
president. He's been busy with that for

170
00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:26.799
months now, and he's moved more
moderate with things. This takes him and

171
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:30.559
throws him far to the left,
as left as you can get in terms

172
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.919
of the progressive platform. I have
a quick sports story, actually a good

173
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:39.120
one. Cavin Sullivan. Cavin has
been named on the Philadelphia Unions squad for

174
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:43.679
tonight's Major League Soccer game against the
New England Revolution. If Cavin gets in

175
00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:48.840
the game, he will be the
youngest player in Major League Soccer history.

176
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:54.879
How old do you think Calvin Sullivan
is to be the youngest player in MLS

177
00:13:54.960 --> 00:14:01.159
history? Seventeen fourteen years and two
and ninety three days. Wow, fourteen

178
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:05.240
years. He would break the record
held by Freddie Aidou, who was fourteen

179
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:09.679
years old when he played. Oh
yeah, Freddie Adu, Do you remember

180
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:11.840
that from twenty years ago? Of
course I do. Being a big deal

181
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:18.840
fourteen year old kid playing a professional
sport. He was just like Messi because

182
00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:26.320
he could wouldn't clean his room,
Lionel, Oh you, it's not your

183
00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:33.519
sport. President Biden is said to
be considering endorsing some major reforms at the

184
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:39.360
Supreme Court. This would be the
first sitting president in generations to back changes

185
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:45.720
to the way the court operates.
Chief among these changes that he's thinking about,

186
00:14:45.799 --> 00:14:52.200
or at least looking at, would
be term limits for nine Supreme Court

187
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:56.080
justices, which are they are currently
serving for lifetime, or until they decide

188
00:14:56.120 --> 00:15:01.159
not to. The President is said
to be preparing to throw support behind an

189
00:15:01.200 --> 00:15:05.960
ethics code for the Court that would
contain an enforcement mechanism which right now is

190
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:11.080
absent from the Court of the code
that the Court adopted last year. Bless

191
00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:13.399
your heart. You'd need Congress to
do this, and you're going to lose

192
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:18.879
Congress if you continue to stay in
the race. Very very true. He's

193
00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:24.320
looking at whether he should push for
a constitutional amendment that would reverse the ruling

194
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:26.600
from the Court earlier this month that
gave president's immunity for some actions while they

195
00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:31.200
take office. The problem with amendments
is they take a long time. Not

196
00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:35.559
that I would disagree with it.
I actually think that would be a perfectly

197
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:43.679
fine constitutional amendment, but in terms
of endorsing one and then getting an amendment

198
00:15:43.799 --> 00:15:48.440
passed is very Come on, man, come what's with you guys? Anyway?

199
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:52.399
What's with you guys? Come on
man? Anyway? His name was

200
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:56.840
Mouse? Did you see this?
No? Who you didn't see that clip?

201
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:03.840
I'll pull it up. Did he
say something about mouse? He did?

202
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:14.000
This weird situation at the NAACP.
I forget what the event was specifically

203
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:19.320
with you guys, come on,
man, But I guess the convention of

204
00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:22.840
some kind. He also did an
interview with B. E. T last

205
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:26.440
night. No, I don't want
to hear that it's going to be embarrassing.

206
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:29.399
Well, I have a little bit
of it. Okay, Well,

207
00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:33.600
he just he has a new criteria
by which he would step down at the

208
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:36.120
top of the ticket. Okay,
if you remember, one of them was

209
00:16:36.279 --> 00:16:40.639
if the Lord Almighty told me to
stop. The second one was if I

210
00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.919
thought I would lose, which he
doesn't. He still doesn't think he would

211
00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:47.960
lose. And then the third one
was if he doesn't feel well, if

212
00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:52.039
there's some medical condition in emergency,
somebody doctors came to me, said you

213
00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:56.600
got this problem, that problem.
But I made a serious mistake in the

214
00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:00.600
whole debate. So if the doctors
tell him, or if the doctors are

215
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:04.680
told by the Lord Almighty that he's
going to lose, maybe the three,

216
00:17:04.960 --> 00:17:08.759
maybe all three. Does somebody in
the family go to him when he's sleeping

217
00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:15.920
and say something like, Joe,
it's me the Lord Almighty, get out.

218
00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:18.119
No, who in the family wants
him to not run? Well,

219
00:17:18.200 --> 00:17:23.160
Jill is drunk on power by all
the people around her. According to sources,

220
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:29.480
Hunter's not going to tell him not
to run. Hunter, I'm not

221
00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:32.519
going to touch it. Addiction is
an ugly thing. Gary and Shannon k

222
00:17:32.839 --> 00:17:37.119
I am six forty Live Everywhere on
the iHeartRadio app. I was listening to

223
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:42.160
a radio show this morning that is
at the convention, and they were talking

224
00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:48.559
about how tiring it is. They
said, can't explain it, but it's

225
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:52.519
really tiring. And I was remembering
us at the convention eight years ago,

226
00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:56.200
and I just remember it being first
whatever reason, I don't know if it's

227
00:17:56.200 --> 00:18:00.640
all though, the extra walking and
going through Secure and the leaving early and

228
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:06.319
to get there and transportation and all
of the secure to everything, and then

229
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:08.200
doing the show and trying to get
guests and everything. It really is like

230
00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:11.519
at the end of the day,
you are dog tired well. And I

231
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:15.359
don't remember there being a lot of
downtime even now, even the times if

232
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.240
we would go back to UH to
our hotel rooms, there was not a

233
00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:23.960
lot of time where you just were
because you'd always want to watch what was

234
00:18:25.000 --> 00:18:26.720
going on, or read what was
going on, or talk to people about

235
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.119
what was going on. There was
never downtime. I mean, it felt

236
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:33.160
like they were back to back too, where they oh they were right eight

237
00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:37.480
years ago? Yeah, yeah,
because I remember they lost our luggage,

238
00:18:37.519 --> 00:18:41.240
that's right. They were just going
to go straight to Philly or whatever for

239
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:45.119
flea flight was so late in Cleveland. Husband was like, you guys have

240
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:48.920
to come home just to sleep in
your bed for one night. You guys

241
00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:51.359
have to come home. And he
was so right about that. But I

242
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:55.640
remember on like a Wednesday in Philly
and I was just I got into that

243
00:18:55.960 --> 00:18:59.960
the card table we were set up
in the lobby of that convention center,

244
00:19:00.400 --> 00:19:03.799
and I remember looking at you being
like I and you were like, it's

245
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:07.720
okay, calm down. Gas tank
was empty. Gas tank was empty,

246
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:11.640
and you put on like Justin Bieber
or something through our headsets, and I

247
00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:15.400
was like, okay, all right, we got a couple more days.

248
00:19:15.039 --> 00:19:19.359
Choose, I don't know, but
it was very calming. But yeah,

249
00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:23.960
that was crazy. Yeah, that
was crazy, going back to back like

250
00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:27.839
that. And it was also the
trauma of staying in the Dead Hooker hotel

251
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:33.400
in Cleveland, or not even in
Cleveland. Well that I had we done

252
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:36.039
it the other way around. We
stayed in the Dead Hooker. You were

253
00:19:36.079 --> 00:19:38.440
so poor. We couldn't even stay
in Cleveland proper. But then we stayed

254
00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:44.839
in a nicer hotel in Cherry Hill, New Jersey's actually right across the river

255
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:47.440
from Phillies, which was better.
Could you imagine if it was reversed,

256
00:19:47.519 --> 00:19:49.599
That's what I mean, it would
have been, oh my god, awful.

257
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:55.759
And one of my favorite moments is
when we were at the Dead Hooker

258
00:19:55.799 --> 00:19:59.839
Hotel and they had this like tiny
breakfast room where they had stale bread and

259
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:06.920
like little cups of like yogurt off
brand Cereal fake egg omelet in the morning.

260
00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:14.559
So we're sitting there and we're watching
the twelve inch television that's in there,

261
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:18.920
which was one of those cube TVs
back of our childhood crt with the

262
00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:25.319
rabbit ears, and we're watching the
local news there, just looking down at

263
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:27.759
this piece of stale bread and being
like what are we doing here? And

264
00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:33.400
Ray Lopez is on the TV.
It's on the TV, and we're like,

265
00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:38.480
what the hell is Ray doing on
the local news with this s eating

266
00:20:38.559 --> 00:20:45.720
grin on his face because the airline
gave him one thousand dollars or something for

267
00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:51.079
booting him off his flight. Yeah, because Southwest had a massive computer air

268
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:55.480
and that was one of the main
areas was the Cleveland Airport and then Ray

269
00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:57.279
Lopez. By the time we got
to the airport, he was he had

270
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:03.240
been there for hours using the company
credit card to eat and drink and have

271
00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:07.119
himself a great day at the airport. And we sat for lunch. I

272
00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:08.839
mean our lunch was probably three and
a half hours. It was a long

273
00:21:08.960 --> 00:21:12.319
time because everything was delayed. Everything
was delayed, and we know our plane

274
00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:17.240
kept getting pushed back and farther and
farther, and he just would say,

275
00:21:17.279 --> 00:21:19.960
hey, rum and coke and just
keep him coming. And he went through

276
00:21:19.960 --> 00:21:25.079
about sixteen And I am not exactger. They lost money on Ray that day.

277
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:30.200
They've lost money. I mean,
think about how much a cocktail at

278
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:36.240
an airport costs. Anyway, do
you remember how much our bill was for

279
00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:40.000
that. I think we like split
a sandwich or something and maybe had a

280
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:44.480
couple of drinks or something, and
that the bill is like five hundred dollars

281
00:21:44.559 --> 00:21:47.599
or something. It's a lot of
jack and coke or rum and coke.

282
00:21:47.640 --> 00:21:49.039
I don't remember what it was.
One of the big stories so far.

283
00:21:49.119 --> 00:21:52.720
We'll dip into it a bit when
we get into swamp Watch here at the

284
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:56.440
top of the hour is that Congressman
Adam Schiff, who is running for Senate,

285
00:21:57.119 --> 00:22:03.480
is now, I would say,
the highest profile Democrat calling for President

286
00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:10.200
Biden to drop out of the race. He sent an exclusive, he said

287
00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:15.799
statement to the La Times and said
that he has serious concerns about whether Biden

288
00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:19.839
could beat Trump in November. Well, and that's the narrative that they're going

289
00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:23.720
with now, not that Biden is
too old or what have you, but

290
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:30.880
that a second Trump presidency, using
his words, will undermine the very foundation

291
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:33.799
of our democracy, the fight for
the democracy. Let's pick someone who can

292
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:40.880
beat Trump. The problem with that
is who could ever beat Trump right now

293
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:42.599
with the momentum he has right now? And I know it's early, it's

294
00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:49.200
July mid July. The Democrats haven't
had their rallying party yet. But right

295
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:56.160
now, on after this attempted assassination, he is a train full speed ahead.

296
00:22:56.559 --> 00:23:00.119
There's no one that's going to stop
him unless it's, like I said,

297
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:04.279
like a Oprah or I don't even
know if Michelle Obama could do it.

298
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:11.039
Maybe what's a celebrity. So they
have some internal polling that actually says

299
00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:15.599
that there are a couple of names
that do poll better than Joe Biden but

300
00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:18.640
not Trump but not yes, but
not necessarily that they would win. They're

301
00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:22.759
closer than Biden would be, but
they're not more. In fact, we

302
00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:26.880
can go through some of that when
we get into Swampwatsch. I also wanted

303
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:29.279
to play for you. We mentioned
it earlier, but we didn't get to

304
00:23:29.559 --> 00:23:33.799
the audio. Lara Trump, who
is a co chair of the Republican National

305
00:23:33.839 --> 00:23:38.039
Committee now obviously the daughter in law
of former President Trump, and her job

306
00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:45.319
last night. The bridges that had
been burned between Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley

307
00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:48.799
and Trump, they were rebuilt,
or at least there was an attempt at

308
00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:53.000
rebuilding that in order to show unity
within the party. But Laura Trump had

309
00:23:53.039 --> 00:23:57.880
the job of trying to humanize this
guy, and we'll play for you part

310
00:23:57.920 --> 00:24:03.079
of what she said in terms of
her big what she's doing, Well,

311
00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:06.279
you're typing. I was gonna say
that was aggressive typing. Oh no,

312
00:24:06.319 --> 00:24:08.960
what would I be typing? I
have no idea that could I possibly be

313
00:24:10.039 --> 00:24:15.440
corresponding? Do go goog looking something
up. I'm doing something important. You've

314
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:18.839
been listening to the Gary and Shannon
Show. You can always hear us live
