00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:03.960
This is Gary and Shannon, and
you're listening to KFI AM six forty,

2
00:00:03.960 --> 00:00:07.839
the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app. I say this,

3
00:00:07.879 --> 00:00:14.160
I really enjoy warm weather. That's
all. That's the end of my

4
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:17.480
story. That's a great story.
All of this heat wave stuff. We

5
00:00:17.519 --> 00:00:20.079
have to talk about it because I
know people. You know, it's not

6
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:24.199
like they can't tell that it's hot
themselves. But I love the heat.

7
00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:27.399
I love it. I love walking
around in it. Of course, I

8
00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:30.839
love coming in to the air conditioning
after I've been in the heat for a

9
00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:33.799
long time. But I don't mind
walking around. I don't mind working out

10
00:00:33.799 --> 00:00:37.920
in it and playing it's good.
I would walk my dog in it,

11
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:43.320
but he doesn't walk apparently I got
a broken one and his legs are too

12
00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:45.920
short. He doesn't like to go
on walks, well, not yet.

13
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:49.000
And you're not supposed to walk on
the midle of the day because its sidewalks

14
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.560
get super short. How do you
feel about the cold? What kind of

15
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:57.359
cold? I don't like to wear
shorts in the cold. If that's what

16
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:02.679
you're asking, I mean, I
would rather This is the kind of Gary

17
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:07.760
and Shannon. This is Gary from
Corona Gary Joe Biden should wait to announce

18
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:15.920
his withdrawal until ten minutes after Trump
announces his vice president during the Republican Convention.

19
00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:19.359
Totally take the wind out of Trump's
sales. Yeah, I'm listening.

20
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.439
I'm I'm telling you. There is
something to be said of owning the headlines.

21
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:26.439
And that's one way to own the
headlines is to make an announcement during

22
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:30.680
the Republican Act. Trump would hate
it. Oh, he would hate it.

23
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:41.840
Gary should do cocaine. I'm not
looking again, I'm not necessarily looking

24
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:46.560
for the bump that I just I
would like to have a soda of something

25
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.000
that's busy waters, bubbles or something. I don't know why. That's a

26
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:55.760
bubble. That's a brand that Jacob
puts those things down pretty regularly. Oh

27
00:01:55.799 --> 00:02:02.680
really, I'm on that's the best
brand. Puller a polar, pretty good

28
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:06.560
color, tastes like a soda.
I have spend drift right now. That's

29
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:08.400
in my fridge. That's one of
those I have, like a grapefruit.

30
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:14.240
Be a million different types of these
things. There used to there used to

31
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:17.800
be only New York seltzer. Do
you remember I loved New York Seltzer cherry.

32
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:22.000
Yeah, that was a great Gary. I just I wanted to say,

33
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:24.800
like just man up man, drink
a rain or a monster or a

34
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:30.919
bang thres a caffeine man man hook
Damn, it's just started getting heart palpitation,

35
00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:37.840
say I felt my my my diabetes
kickback in. I'm sorry, but

36
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:52.280
this entire section of your show today
is radio gold, absolute radio gold.

37
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:57.879
Was that the penis stuff? Probably? What else is going on? Time

38
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:02.240
for what's happening? It's a good
thing. We did it after eleven?

39
00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:07.439
Is that the safe harbor? The
boss and she tell you not to say

40
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:12.400
it? What was the word you
can? Yeah, not before eleven?

41
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:15.000
Something like that, something like that. It is anatomy, you know,

42
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:17.960
it is a part of the body. Yeah, you're not using a strange

43
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:22.719
euphemism. That's what your doctor would
call it. That's what my doctor would

44
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:28.280
call it. A warning from a
woman in yellow Stone came in just after

45
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:31.319
midnight July fourth. She had been
held at gunpoint by a guy who said

46
00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:38.319
he planned to carry out a mass
shooting on July fourth. This was a

47
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:42.759
guy from Florida ended up dying at
a scene when he got into a shootout

48
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:46.439
with rangers outside of a dining area
with about two hundred people inside. He

49
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:52.360
shot a bunch of bullets of the
rifle at the service entrance. Rangers were

50
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:57.919
able to shoot him. Samson Lucas
Beriah Fussner. That is the name of

51
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:02.840
a of a serial killer. Yes, apparently after that woman called it in,

52
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:06.719
the rangers spent the next several hours
trying to find the shooter until he

53
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:15.800
showed up outside that dining area.
Yikes. Those three guys who were charged

54
00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:18.360
with the robbery attempt that ended up
killing the woman from New Zealand at Fashion

55
00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:23.319
Island made their first court appearance yesterday. Finally, well huh, look at

56
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:28.079
this. They all have priors in
La County, where we don't treat criminals

57
00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:31.439
that way. We just lets you
run amongst the other unicorns and unicorn land

58
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:35.879
with sparkles raining down upon you.
Part of the bonus show that people got

59
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:41.519
yesterday was I did the first segment
of the John coblt Show and Corbyn Carson

60
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:46.000
came on, and not only were
police very upset with the fact that at

61
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:51.399
least the twenty six year old of
these three guys had had not gone to

62
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:58.480
prison, basically accused the La County
DA of lying about why that guy had

63
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:01.199
not gone to prison, used a
gun and commit of a crime stealing a

64
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:06.120
role excess to somebody, so circumstance
that they don't charge anymore. Well,

65
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:11.560
because guns are what good or bad? They don't know. They can't make

66
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:15.399
up their mind. Well, we've
got some gruesome details about a violent and

67
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:21.600
bloody double homicide that included the death
of a dog and the suspect being shot.

68
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:25.600
This happened at an Orange County mobile
home park earlier in the week.

69
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:32.519
San Juan Capistrano Wow, Orange County
Sheriff said deputies responded to this horrific scene.

70
00:05:32.600 --> 00:05:38.120
Their words, two elderly victims,
a seventy nine year old woman and

71
00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:42.040
her husband seventy seven, both had
been decapitated, along with their dog.

72
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:46.600
My Goodness, forty one year old
son had lived in this community with his

73
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:51.160
parents. Any sign of mental illness, I would say that is a sign

74
00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:57.040
of mental illness. The Alec Baldwin
trial continues down in Santa Fe, New

75
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:03.279
Mexico, and the armorer, who
has already been found guilty of involuntary manslaughter

76
00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:08.360
for the death of the cinematographer on
that set, is expected to testify.

77
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:13.480
She will be called to the stand
we believe tomorrow she is already serving that

78
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:17.639
eighteen month sentence for her role in
the shooting death. She has been transferred

79
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:20.160
to Santa Fe where she is going
to be held where the trial, i

80
00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:28.480
should say, is being held.
Baldwin held the gun that fired the bullet,

81
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:31.319
could face eighteen months if he is
convicted as well. Now she was

82
00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:35.240
the one, as the armorer who
was responsible for all of the weapons on

83
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:39.639
the set. She said during a
pre trial interview a couple of months ago

84
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:44.439
she would be unwilling to cooperate,
that she did not want to testify in

85
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:48.399
this case. Costco is raising the
membership fees going up for the first time

86
00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:56.920
since twenty seventeen. The fees are
going up about five bucks to about ten

87
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:00.879
bucks. The executive membership the fe
Nancy one is going up to one hundred

88
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:06.920
and thirty dollars a year. Well, Jason Nathanson has the whole rundown about

89
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:13.879
Kevin Costner's disaster at the box office. Two things first, I'm honored Gary

90
00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:15.839
you named the dog after my father, so thank you for that. Come

91
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:19.560
and Shannon, welcome back from suspension. Thank you, thank you. Let

92
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:21.759
me know when you figure out what
I did wrong. Yes, I went,

93
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:26.360
Yes, Kevin Costner, I mean
we saw this coming. After the

94
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.240
opening weekend for Horizon and American Saga
earned just eleven million dollars for a film

95
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:34.759
that costs a reported one hundred million
to make, of which Kevin Costner put

96
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:39.480
in from what we're in what we
understand, about forty million of his own

97
00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:44.600
money to make just that first film. He sold property, leverage things.

98
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:48.680
This was his his magnum opus.
I guess because it was going it was

99
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:53.720
supposed to be four parts of this
movie, and the second part was already

100
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:58.279
dated to come out in August,
but after that the first opening weekend,

101
00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:01.759
and I think to date it's made
twenty five million dollars, which for one

102
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.519
hundred million dollar movie, you have
to make somewhere at least around two hundred

103
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:07.680
million to even start to try to
make your money back. So that's not

104
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:13.279
gonna happen. So New Line,
in coordination with Warner Brothers, who is

105
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.600
the company that distributed it, said
that August date, yeah, not gonna

106
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:22.439
happen. For Chapter two, we're
gonna put it on DVD or paid video

107
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:30.279
on demand rental starting July sixteen,
can put it on VHS exactly. Well,

108
00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:31.679
that might be the only way to
get some of the older audience that

109
00:08:31.679 --> 00:08:37.240
they're looking for to see it.
But they're gonna put it on paid video

110
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:39.919
on demand rental, where they think
it has a better shot of actually making

111
00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:45.320
some money in order to let audiences
get a chance to discover it, they

112
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.960
say, and then hopefully that'll then
drive fervor. That sounds like a bunch

113
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:54.440
of bologney. Yeah, I mean
it's it's it's their way of From a

114
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:58.879
business sense, it does kind of
make sense because look, the biggest sector

115
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.519
of the movie going public that did
not come back after the pandemic was older

116
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:07.720
audiences, right, and this is
an older audience movie. I think it

117
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:13.320
skewed well over forty five years old
for the average audience who actually did go

118
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.360
to see it, and those who
were, you know, going to see

119
00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:22.559
it were ones that liked westerns and
like, you know, Yellowstone, although

120
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:26.559
Yellowstone is one of the most watched
shows on television, so that has a

121
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:30.559
kind of a broader audience. But
this is always going to skew older and

122
00:09:30.639 --> 00:09:33.240
old. Older audiences just have not
gone back to theaters in the same numbers

123
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:37.720
as everybody else does, and that
doesn't mean people aren't going back to theaters.

124
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:41.759
They are in big numbers, as
we've seen recently with Inside Out two

125
00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:46.320
you know now is the highest grossing
Pixar film and other films as well.

126
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:50.960
People will go to the theater,
but the older audiences the stairway, they

127
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:54.360
don't go opening weekend. They take
their sweet time, and a lot of

128
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:58.399
them are just happy to see it
at home. Also, when your moviees

129
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:01.879
three hours hours in one minute long, that's going to keep people out of

130
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:05.159
theaters as well, especially the older
audience. You said that you were going

131
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:09.639
to hold off in your review until
the second movie came out because you wanted

132
00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:15.360
to experience the entirety of yes you
do listen, that's so nice and what

133
00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:18.240
happens to the right now. But
now we're just left dangling in the wind.

134
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:22.240
Well, we'll see chapter two at
some point, whether we see chapters

135
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:24.759
three and four, that's the big
up in the air question. Chapter two

136
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:30.000
is done. It's going to come
out, whether it gets dumped somewhere on

137
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:33.559
paid video on demand, whether it
gets dumped on Max whatever. But you're

138
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:37.320
going to watch it. Oh yeah, okay, so we're still have to

139
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:41.480
wait. I've invested three hours already
in chapter one. Darn touton, I'm

140
00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:46.399
going to watch the rest of it. He's pot committed at this bat,

141
00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:50.240
I will Does it end on the
cliffhanger kind of? No? Not really,

142
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:54.200
so it's just weak stream huh,
yeah, it's you know. And

143
00:10:54.240 --> 00:10:56.759
again, as I mentioned the first
time, this probably would have been better

144
00:10:56.799 --> 00:11:01.840
conceptualized as a series. That is
not the case here. I will say,

145
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:05.799
though, because I know you are
dying for that number on the review,

146
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.240
I need to know how many nats
it gets. It was in the

147
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:11.919
fives. I would say, as
it stands right now, five point.

148
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:15.919
Is there any chance that I know
you said that the second part is coming

149
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:18.720
out, there's no chance that this
ends up like Bad Girl, completely made

150
00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:24.440
and never released. I wouldn't say
there's no chance that happens. I mean

151
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:31.039
there always is a chance. I
think again, they're shifting their strategy here,

152
00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:35.120
and if that shift doesn't work,
say they put this on premium VOD

153
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:39.519
and people don't you know, in
big numbers go and pay to see it,

154
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:43.720
and then the next after that would
probably be putting it on Max,

155
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.120
where I think it probably has a
better chances. We've seen stuff go to

156
00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:52.720
streaming, it does have a better
chance of people watching it. It's just

157
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:56.000
all about how they want to try
to make their money back. So will

158
00:11:56.039 --> 00:12:00.879
it be in theaters, No guarantee
of that. Will it act be released

159
00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:05.000
in some form, whether that's street, the theaters are streaming. I think

160
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:07.799
there's a strong chance of that.
Is there some weird like bat Girl,

161
00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:15.600
Uh, you know underworld black market
where it can find? It exists?

162
00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:18.200
Not that I know of, no, because this it never saw the light

163
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:24.240
of day in any formd Somebody's got
to have it, not necessarily there I

164
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:26.559
had. It's on a server somewhere, so it's got to be on a

165
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:31.200
Warner Brothers server somewhere and those are
all locked down, and for somebody to

166
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:35.879
have gotten hold of that, I
don't know. Like there's remember right before

167
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:39.360
the Luis c k scandal happened,
there was a movie of his that was

168
00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:43.200
supposed to come out and it never
came out. This was back in twenty

169
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:48.000
eighteen. I got they they had
just sent out the DVD screeners of that

170
00:12:48.200 --> 00:12:52.440
for Award season. So I have
that, so that exists. Did you

171
00:12:52.519 --> 00:12:56.720
see the sorry not Sorry story about
the reporting on I'm going to try to

172
00:12:56.759 --> 00:13:01.519
watch that tonight because I'm very it
looks right up your alley and seeing and

173
00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:05.240
seeing that, because that was one
of the more conflicted of of all the

174
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:11.000
me two things for me in terms
of just I loved Louis c K.

175
00:13:11.559 --> 00:13:13.919
And then when all the stuff came
out, you know, it was very

176
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.799
hard to watch and stuff and listen
to his stuff. We know he loved

177
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:20.120
you too. He just did it
from across the room. He was more

178
00:13:20.120 --> 00:13:24.519
into self love, wasn't he.
He wanted me to watch him love himself,

179
00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:28.960
That's what he was. I don't
think he will that from you,

180
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:31.240
No, No, I think he
wanted somebody to watch him, right,

181
00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:35.320
but not you? But not me? Okay, I don't know how to

182
00:13:35.320 --> 00:13:39.639
take that well because it was primarily
female comics that he would expose himself to.

183
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:43.240
Okay, well down low, all
right, If it makes you feel

184
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:46.159
better, sure, Louis c K
wanted you to watch. Thank you.

185
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:50.799
That does make me feel better for
some reason. Weird strange science. Thank

186
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:58.080
you. Jason Nathanson, entertainment reporter. It's such a weird little family,

187
00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:01.879
aren't we. I can't wait we
get our reunion together, our reunion.

188
00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:05.519
Who you want to reunite? With
well, I mean we don't get to

189
00:14:05.559 --> 00:14:07.639
see Jason very off. That's true. I see what you mean. So,

190
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:11.960
uh, pickleball, you're gonna see
him in shorts. We're gonna wait

191
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:13.320
till it's one hundred and six and
then we're gonna play pickle That's great,

192
00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:16.720
great idea. Well, would you
be able to get on board with AI

193
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:20.600
if it could tell you what your
dog's bark means? Yes, that this

194
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:24.440
would be the This would be the
real AI. I don't need it,

195
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.399
you know, start in World War
three or anything. It's where we kick

196
00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:41.480
off strange science. Strange. It's
like weird science, but strange. Researchers

197
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:46.759
at the University of Michigan studying how
AI can be used to understand it dogs

198
00:14:46.799 --> 00:14:52.919
communicate. Listen, we're trying to
figure out whether the dog is being playful

199
00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:58.200
or if they're being aggressive. They
want to gather more information about vocalizations like

200
00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:01.840
the age, the breed, the
sex the dog, et cetera. And

201
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:07.720
they said, by using speech processing
models trained on human speech, they may

202
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:11.879
be able to leverage what we built
so far in speech processing to start understanding

203
00:15:11.919 --> 00:15:18.240
the nuances of dog barks right now. They studied vocalizations from seventy four dogs

204
00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:22.200
in very different contexts. There's so
much we don't know about the animals that

205
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:26.559
share the world with us. They
said. Their findings indicate the sounds and

206
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:31.120
patterns that originate from human speech can
form the basis for examining and comprehending the

207
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:35.840
acoustic patterns of other sounds, which
include animal vocalization. Don't you kind of

208
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:37.960
know, though, what your dog
is barking about? Or what you kind

209
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:41.399
of get to know your dog?
Right? It's like your baby crying?

210
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:46.240
Okay, yeah, I think so, you're I mean, using your own

211
00:15:46.279 --> 00:15:50.279
AI. You do? You use
your own AI? You use the context

212
00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:52.360
of where are they? What are
they looking at? Are they I mean,

213
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:54.679
are they barking? Oh, he's
looking at that bird out there?

214
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.200
Are they looking at the spirits?
Is he barking because he wants to go

215
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:00.840
out the back door? Is he
barking because he heard a sound in the

216
00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:04.039
front yard? All of that stuff
seems some of that is kind of intuitive.

217
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:07.240
Yes, why are you concerned about
your dog talking to the dead?

218
00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:14.600
I believe that dogs see things that
we don't. Really, Yeah, I

219
00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:17.519
never knew this. Concerned, Well, I mean, I'm not concerned.

220
00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:19.519
I feel like great. If they
have that power, good for them.

221
00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:26.240
Do you think that your dog is
seeing your your your dog that has departed

222
00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.279
us. It's possible. Trust me. We thought about that. Like,

223
00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:33.720
he'll he'll walk past that certain part
in the living room. Yeah, you

224
00:16:33.039 --> 00:16:37.039
can sense it. Yeah, and
he'll get like creeped out and he'll do

225
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:38.279
that weird look, like what was
that? Did you guys feel that?

226
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:44.799
Oh? Really, it's weird.
That's fascinating. Yes, no, I'm

227
00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:48.039
fine, I'm okay. If I
can't wait to come over and watch your

228
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:53.879
new dog talk to your dead dog, lucky you. Speaking of animals,

229
00:16:55.639 --> 00:17:00.440
one new rare animal has been introduced. Reintroduced, I should say, to

230
00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:04.480
meadow in Yosemite for the first time. More than one hundred toads flew over

231
00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:10.359
California last week on their way to
a remote meadow in Yosemite. The beautiful

232
00:17:10.359 --> 00:17:14.440
toads, aren't they? I suppose
I think they're beautiful. They're multicolored.

233
00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:18.799
They're black and brown and orange and
green. It's the first time anyone ever

234
00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:22.920
raised that species in captivity and then
released them to the wild. According to

235
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:29.359
Rochelle Styles, a conservation manager at
the San Francisco Zoo, They actually put

236
00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:36.519
tracking devices on these toads that were
released, so they're very cute. The

237
00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:41.119
Yosemite toad YEP is one of the
only that can live in elevations over eleven

238
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:47.319
thousand feet several locations throughout Yosemite,
but they were eradicated from the meadow in

239
00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:52.400
twenty thirteen after the rim fire rolled
through there. So there are new Speaking

240
00:17:52.400 --> 00:18:00.319
of rolling over the cooked remains of
your ancestors, there are new kittens at

241
00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:06.480
the Columbus Zoo in Ohio, a
new litter of near threatened cat species.

242
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:12.359
The two new palace cats were born
July third to Tina and Moose, and

243
00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:15.960
it's their second litter. Yeah.
What do these things look like when they're

244
00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:19.599
grown? I don't know. That's
a funny because that's a night vision picture

245
00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:25.160
that they have thereof Okay, long
thick gray coat, flathead, short ear.

246
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.279
Oh it's very cute. I think
I knew her. Look at this.

247
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:30.799
That's a nice looking cat. Yeah
it is. And I don't even

248
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:34.880
like cats. When they were first
discovered, some mistook them for wild ancestors

249
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:40.039
of domestic persians because they look so
much alike. But the kittens and the

250
00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:42.079
mom, Tina spending their time bonding
behind the scenes. They will not be

251
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:48.000
viewable for guests. Two guests for
about six weeks. They said the kittens

252
00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:52.240
can emerge from their den. They
should have their full adult coat according to

253
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:56.559
the zoo, and they say this
is a joyous occasion for people who love

254
00:18:56.839 --> 00:19:02.720
cats. Those astronauts still stuck up
there. It's funny you should ask.

255
00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:04.880
The answer is yes, uh oh, yeah, we'll talk about that.

256
00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:14.079
And those the NASA, you wouldn't
call them. They were marstronauts, the

257
00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:17.160
ones who are gonna head to Mars. But they actually sat in a room

258
00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:21.880
for a year with each other at
each other, smelled each other, just

259
00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:26.960
look smelled each other soup Gary and
Shannon. I don't need AI to tell

260
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:30.359
me what my dog's bark means.
A few weeks ago, I put my

261
00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:37.400
dogs and their dog run and my
my pit bull lab mix made a bark

262
00:19:37.519 --> 00:19:41.559
that made me stop in my tracks. It wasn't a normal squirrel, raccoon

263
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:45.799
whatever bark. So I went to
investigate and found both my dogs staring at

264
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:52.640
the corner of their run where there
was a rattlesnake. That's terrifying, but

265
00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:55.720
that's a good point. I didn't
think about it until you said it.

266
00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:59.640
But yes, you can tell the
difference. There's there. You know,

267
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:03.559
if you you heard your husband exclaim, I don't know. I've never heard

268
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:07.640
him say RG or O or ah. Yeah, but if he did,

269
00:20:07.880 --> 00:20:12.920
I mean you would know. You're
familiar enough with his mannerisms that if something

270
00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:17.720
was way out of the ordinary like
that, yeah, you would. You'd

271
00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:19.680
be able to tell. Not that
your husband is treated like a dog.

272
00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:25.920
He does not exclaim either, He's
not an exclaimer, But you tell,

273
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:29.599
you could tell something, and his
demeanor would have changed, probably body language.

274
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:34.759
You mentioned the Boeing Starliner capsule that
finally took off after delays and then

275
00:20:34.839 --> 00:20:40.039
got stuck at the International Space Station. Well, they decided yesterday they don't

276
00:20:40.079 --> 00:20:44.920
really know and they're going to come
home. The helium leaks, the thrust

277
00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:48.519
or problems. Engineers are still looking
into what caused them, which means that

278
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:52.200
they have not yet been cleared for
departure. But in an interview that the

279
00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:57.200
two astronauts did from the International Space
Station, they did say yesterday that they

280
00:20:57.240 --> 00:21:02.519
are both confident that if there was
there's an emergency on the ISS, they

281
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:07.799
could crawl right back into that capsule
and then that's it, like they would

282
00:21:07.839 --> 00:21:11.960
have to wait at that point and
then figure out how to get home.

283
00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:17.799
Have you ever heard of HD one
eight nine seven three three B? Is

284
00:21:17.839 --> 00:21:21.839
that a star? It is an
exoplanet discovered in two thousand and five,

285
00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:26.519
and you should be lucky. You
should feel lucky that we are sixty four

286
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:33.759
light years away from it. Because
it smells like rotten eggs go on and

287
00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:41.839
it rains glass. Wow, it's
a beautiful planet. It's blue, it

288
00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:45.000
looks gorgeous. But they say,
don't be deceived. Weather here is deadly.

289
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:51.799
The planet's cobalt blue color comes from
a hazy, blow torched atmosphere containing

290
00:21:51.839 --> 00:21:56.079
clouds laced with glass. Have you
read your your journal Nature that came on

291
00:21:56.119 --> 00:22:02.200
Monday? Yet no in it.
They say that they have just discovered not

292
00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:06.200
only does it rain glass, but
the pungent smell. They found new data

293
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:15.160
from the James Web Space telescope that
detected a trace of hydrogen sulfide. And

294
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:18.720
they say, yes, the stinky
smell adds to its already infamous reputation.

295
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:23.640
This is not a planet we humans
want to visit. They said, it's

296
00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:30.039
basically a hot jupiter, that it's
about ten percent larger than our Jupiter,

297
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:33.440
not that it's ours, but it's
ours. But it's much hotter than Jupiter

298
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:40.480
because it's about thirteen times closer to
its star than Mercury is to our Sun.

299
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:45.559
Yikes, and all of that just
through the web telescope. They can

300
00:22:45.599 --> 00:22:48.960
tell all of that, just through
that. I was at Griffith Observatory for

301
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:51.440
the first time in my life the
other way, what did you learn?

302
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:55.440
I learned that I hate a lot
of people, but I really enjoyed.

303
00:22:55.599 --> 00:23:03.359
I love those science museumy things where
there's the little description of this is what,

304
00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:07.720
this is how they figured out right
on gas exists in the that stuff

305
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:11.119
I could I could go through and
look at every one of those exhibits.

306
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:15.079
I liked, especially the live view
of the Sun that comes through that one

307
00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.519
section and all the different reflections of
the sun come through. How much did

308
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:22.759
you like all the people taking their
Instagram photos? I wanted to push every

309
00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:26.720
single one of them off of that
cliff, yeah, off the ledge down

310
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:30.640
and tumble their body to the point
where it was just dust, and then

311
00:23:30.799 --> 00:23:37.359
just talked to a right on it. Just it was awful. There are

312
00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:41.319
certain places that turn us all into
homicidal beasts and it wasn't. I mean,

313
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:45.559
it's a beautiful The building is.
Think about that place has been around

314
00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:49.480
for almost one hundred years now,
Griffith Observatory and all of the different things

315
00:23:49.519 --> 00:23:55.480
that have been discovered and talked about
there, and the movies and TV shows

316
00:23:55.480 --> 00:23:57.480
that have been set there, the
Paula Abdul videos that have been set there.

317
00:23:57.759 --> 00:24:03.160
It's it's a beautiful. It's a
great view everything, and people taking

318
00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:07.920
pictures of themselves. It's all about
them. It's all about them. How

319
00:24:07.960 --> 00:24:15.599
awful anyway, in the Mars Chappie
Crew Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog is

320
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:18.519
back on Earth. I mean they
never left, but so was it Rush

321
00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:26.759
Rush Yeah, with Keanu Reeves actually
using that video they are. They came

322
00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:32.119
out of the Martian Habitat simulation at
NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston on July

323
00:24:32.279 --> 00:24:36.759
sixth. They're designed to help scientists, engineers, and mission planners understand how

324
00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:41.200
living in another world with three of
the most annoying people with you could actually

325
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:45.440
pan out. They had. It
was about a seventeen hundred square foot space

326
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:51.160
and all four of these people did
nothing for more than a year. The

327
00:24:51.319 --> 00:24:56.240
three D printed habitat. They said
to support human health and performance research to

328
00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:59.680
prepare for future missions. And they
have two more, one next year and

329
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:03.480
then one in the year after that
as well. What is Keanu Reeves doing

330
00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:07.079
in this video? Was this for
a movie of some kind? No,

331
00:25:07.119 --> 00:25:12.839
it's just a video for the song. This is also back when you could

332
00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:18.359
pour millions of dollars into a video
and it meant something, right, This

333
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:22.119
was they became sort of the marketing
tool for all of the music that we

334
00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:26.599
saw, because back in my day
there was something called MTV and it stood

335
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:30.599
for music Television. Ah. My
wife and I were trying to explain that

336
00:25:30.640 --> 00:25:36.039
to our daughter and her friend as
we're pulling up to Griffith Observatory. Oh,

337
00:25:36.079 --> 00:25:37.359
there was this video that they made
here and it was a song and

338
00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:41.599
the song the video goes with the
song. It tells kind of the story

339
00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.799
of the song. And they were
just like, huh is this TikTok TikTok

340
00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:57.519
ah? And then a stegosaurus remains
I guess a skeleton is up for auction.

341
00:25:59.000 --> 00:26:02.799
One hundred and sixty one one million
year old stegosaurus that was discovered in

342
00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:06.559
Colorado a couple of years ago is
going to be auctioned by Sotheby's in New

343
00:26:06.640 --> 00:26:12.279
York. The dinosaur, the dinosaur
that they call Apex, stands eleven feet

344
00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:17.640
tall twenty seven feet nose to tail. And here's an interesting part of it.

345
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:26.319
The actual stegosaurus remains show signs of
arthritis. They said it was a

346
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:30.039
complete enough that they referred to it
as a coloring book dinosaurs. Now,

347
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:37.240
I want dino nuggets. Experts believe
that the stegosaurus is used the tail spikes

348
00:26:37.279 --> 00:26:41.480
to fight. This one didn't have
any sign of combat, but did have

349
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:45.759
arthritis. Apex was found with a
tail curled up beneath the body, which

350
00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:51.160
is a common death pose for animals. Oh god, So I don't know

351
00:26:51.160 --> 00:26:55.680
if they did that like humane in
home version where the vet has to come

352
00:26:55.720 --> 00:26:59.359
and put down the stegosaurus for you
on your living room floor and everybody's crying,

353
00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:03.240
and I hope not, because that's
sad. You've been listening to The
