Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
Speaker 1: AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: What else is going on? Time for what's happening? By
Speaker 2: the way, rate cut? Rate cut? To be clear, right,
Speaker 2: rate cut? This Fed reserve cut rates by half a
Speaker 2: point rate cut. We keep screwing that up. But as
Speaker 2: a result, giddy Wall Street is projecting that they were
Speaker 2: going to dramatically reduce interest rates with this over this
Speaker 2: course of this next year. Gross domestic products is still
Speaker 2: at three percent. That's a pretty strong indicator when it
Speaker 2: comes to the economy. And right now Wall Street is
Speaker 2: reacting mixed. I guess you could say to this half
Speaker 2: point rate cut. In fact, the DAL has dipped back
Speaker 2: below zero, below flat. I should say it's now at
Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight points in the red as it continues
Speaker 2: to kind of digest this information about the half point
Speaker 2: rate cut.
Speaker 1: So cal Gas has shut off services to thirty seven
Speaker 1: homes enrolling Hills Estates, and by tonight fifty one more
Speaker 1: households will have their power shut off for good due
Speaker 1: to land movement.
Speaker 2: What a mess? What is the final How do you
Speaker 2: fix this? What was five years from now. Are these
Speaker 2: people going to have power again or are they just
Speaker 2: going to red tag that whole area and get everybody
Speaker 2: to move out of there and never move back.
Speaker 3: I have no idea. It just sounds like such a nightmare.
Speaker 2: Hawaii's Kilauea volcano is erupting again. That's prompted a volcano
Speaker 2: watch alert in some of the surrounding areas. That's occurring
Speaker 2: within a remote area, they say, of the Volcanos National Park.
Speaker 2: According to the USGS, lava began flowing from a new
Speaker 2: fissure vent that opened from east to west within the
Speaker 2: volcano's Napau crater early yesterday morning. They said there are
Speaker 2: a few lava fountains that have squored did thirty two
Speaker 2: feet high pools of lava now on the floor of
Speaker 2: the crater, observed by helicopters that are flying over the eruption.
Speaker 2: Seventeen earthquakes detected beneath the killaway A summit region just
Speaker 2: over the last couple of days.
Speaker 3: A tear in the skies a little bit here.
Speaker 1: Delta passengers left with bloody noses and ears after severe
Speaker 1: cabin pressure issues. This was flight twelve oh three from
Speaker 1: Salt Lake City to Portland, Oregon, and they say that
Speaker 1: it was unable to pressurize above ten thousand feet.
Speaker 2: How does it?
Speaker 3: Passenger jass.
Speaker 1: Passenger jac says she felt her ear pop and then
Speaker 1: bubble because the pressure in the cabin. She felt like
Speaker 1: someone was stabbing her in the ear. Wow, she said,
Speaker 1: I grabbed my ear. I pulled my hand back and
Speaker 1: there was blood on it.
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever heard of that before. No.
Speaker 1: I looked a row behind me on the other side
Speaker 1: of the aisle. There was a gentleman that clearly had
Speaker 1: a very bad bloody nos. People were trying to help him.
Speaker 1: Apparently ten people were treated.
Speaker 2: All of the Alaska air without any of the Hawaiian
Speaker 2: version of it. But Alaska has closed its billion dollar
Speaker 2: purchase of Hawaiian Airlines and they're gonna, yes, Alaska will
Speaker 2: own Hawaiian, but they said that they'll keep it as
Speaker 2: a separate brand so they don't have to repaint the
Speaker 2: planes among other things. So that's good. I gain.
Speaker 1: I've got another looting for you, this time in South
Speaker 1: la at an AutoZone looters were able to get away
Speaker 1: with sixty seven thousand dollars worth of.
Speaker 2: Merchandise sixty seven thousand. Yeah, it does seem quite high.
Speaker 3: What would you jack from an AutoZone from an auto zone?
Speaker 2: Like? What would be the highest Yeah? Wow, like the
Speaker 2: highest val even know AutoZone. I would think that some
Speaker 2: of the some of the replacement parts that they keep
Speaker 2: behind the count would be the most expensive. I'd take
Speaker 2: batteries and breaks. Batteries would be way too heavy. You'd
Speaker 2: never be able to get out of there with more
Speaker 2: than two batteries. I mean, maybe that's all the profit
Speaker 2: you need, But I'm just I don't know. There's got
Speaker 2: to be something specific, some specific.
Speaker 1: I mean, they must have spent a long time in
Speaker 1: there to get away with that much.
Speaker 2: That does seem like a lot. Final week of summer
Speaker 2: is expected to be a little bit rainy, this low
Speaker 2: pressure system moving through the area later this week. They
Speaker 2: said the best chance of rain comes on Friday Friday,
Speaker 2: below average temperatures continue. You got out of here just
Speaker 2: in time because it's been chilly for the last couple
Speaker 2: of days.
Speaker 3: Well that sounds nice.
Speaker 2: It is. It's nice to wake up to some cloudy
Speaker 2: skies once in a while.
Speaker 1: I'm always shocked by the Toy Hall of Fame and
Speaker 1: what is not already in the Toy Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1: Nominated for the Toy Hall of Fame include Choose your
Speaker 1: Own Adventure game books. Why the hell aren't those already
Speaker 1: in there? Those are great? More perplexing is My Little Pony.
Speaker 1: My Little Pony should have been in there years ago. Wow,
Speaker 1: Transformers not in there?
Speaker 2: What hess toy trucks which have been part of the
Speaker 2: holiday season since nineteen sixty four, remote controlled vehicles stick
Speaker 2: horses I used to have one. Rounding out the list,
Speaker 2: the game Phase ten Always a fun game, Sequence Another Game,
Speaker 2: and the Pokemon Trading Card game, along with the to
Speaker 2: the two perennial nominees. Like you said, the My Little
Speaker 2: Pony's been up for nomination before and Transformers have, but
Speaker 2: they have not yet made it into the final vote you.
Speaker 2: By the way, you can vote for your favorite toys
Speaker 2: through the twenty fifth at Toy Hall of Fame dot org,
Speaker 2: and the three toys that receive the most public votes
Speaker 2: will make up a player's choice ballot that'll be tallied
Speaker 2: along with the ballots from twenty two historians and other experts.
Speaker 3: Who is that guy? Who's that guy who's voting for
Speaker 3: the Toy Hall of Fame.
Speaker 2: I don't know who casts their vote for balloon as
Speaker 2: the Toy Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3: Oh, just an everyday balloon.
Speaker 2: Just balloon, last year's inductees, baseball cards, cabbage patch dolls,
Speaker 2: Fisher Price corn poppers.
Speaker 3: See what I mean? Like, how was that stuff not
Speaker 3: already in there?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean they have to create some You can
Speaker 2: only let in so many, I suppose, in order to
Speaker 2: create some discussion, some excitements about what's going to make
Speaker 2: it in what's.
Speaker 1: Not More wireless devices have exploded in Lebanon for the
Speaker 1: second day. Handheld communication devices exploded across Lebanon and in
Speaker 1: the southern suburbs of the capitol bea route an a
Speaker 1: parent attack on Hesblah. At least fourteen people were killed,
Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty injured.
Speaker 2: So this is it's crazy because this obviously comes on
Speaker 2: the heels of that the pagers that blew up yesterday.
Speaker 2: We found out more about the pay themselves, like what
Speaker 2: company made them. How in the world MASSAD would have
Speaker 2: been able to intercept, you know, get into the supply
Speaker 2: chain basically and then add whatever explosive element it was
Speaker 2: that was added to those things. To make them blow up.
Speaker 2: And now that the idea that they would have planned,
Speaker 2: not just I mean, just if you just took the
Speaker 2: pager story and all you said was they're going to
Speaker 2: have three thousand little tiny bomblets available to them to
Speaker 2: explode at a time of their choosing, at a time
Speaker 2: of Masads choosing, but then also plan that they would
Speaker 2: they being hasblah, would shy away from from pagers and
Speaker 2: go to an even lower tech form of communication in
Speaker 2: these wireless handhelds, these walkie talkies, and then blow those
Speaker 2: things up.
Speaker 1: Hussein Awata is fifty four. He said, I saw stuff
Speaker 1: today you only see in movies. He remembered how he
Speaker 1: watched a man attempting to open the road for ambulances
Speaker 1: and Bayroot become gravely injured when the two way radio
Speaker 1: in his hand exploded. He says it took seconds, the
Speaker 1: thing just blew up in his hands. Maybe tomorrow, he says,
Speaker 1: lighters will explode too. You want to light a cigarette,
Speaker 1: it'll just explode in your hand. I mean, how terrifying.
Speaker 1: I saw one video earlier today. I guess it was
Speaker 1: towards the beginning of the show, where it was a
Speaker 1: view of the skyline in Bay Route, and it's a
Speaker 1: time lapse video, so it takes some probably about I
Speaker 1: don't know, twenty or thirty seconds to go through what
Speaker 1: would be about ten or fifteen minutes. And across the
Speaker 1: skyline you saw different plumes of smoke coming up from
Speaker 1: different areas of the city, but all within a couple
Speaker 1: of minutes of each other, seconds of each other. Basically
Speaker 1: where in these different areas these walkie talkies had blown up,
Speaker 1: and then you saw the aftermath with the smoke rising
Speaker 1: from these different neighborhoods. They said, similar plane scenes were
Speaker 1: playing out across the country.
Speaker 2: And these explosions that came today the devices that were
Speaker 2: purchased by Hasblah about five months ago. And like you said,
Speaker 2: at least one explosion was close to a funeral that
Speaker 2: was being held in Beirut for some of the victims
Speaker 2: of yesterday's attack, which created a panic among those near
Speaker 2: the procession.
Speaker 1: When the blast went off, they said, a brief, eerie
Speaker 1: stillness descended on the crowd. Mourners looked at one another
Speaker 1: in disbelief. The religious chants that were being broadcast over
Speaker 1: a loudspeaker stopped abruptly. Then the panic set in people
Speaker 1: scrambling in the streets, hiding in the lobbies of nearby building,
Speaker 1: shouting at each other, turn off your phone, take out
Speaker 1: the battery. And then a voice on the loud speaker
Speaker 1: at the funeral repeated that turn off your phone, take
Speaker 1: out the battery.
Speaker 2: In basically the aftermath of this, they were trying to
Speaker 2: determine which companies were responsible for building these devices. There's
Speaker 2: a firm in Taiwan that was originally identified as the
Speaker 2: source of the pagers for me yesterday, they have denied
Speaker 2: manufacturing any of them, and then a firm in Hungary
Speaker 2: that was apparently part of the supply chain also has
Speaker 2: denied that it had anything to do with the distribution
Speaker 2: of either one either the walkie talkies or the pagers
Speaker 2: in these in these explosions. But you're right, I mean
Speaker 2: the idea now people are people are now scared of
Speaker 2: someone else using a phone. They won't they won't be
Speaker 2: they won't walk near you if they see you using
Speaker 2: a phone, if you're in Lebanon. Now, so this is uh.
Speaker 2: The criticism obviously is this is Yes, it's cinematic, Yes
Speaker 2: it sounds like it's out of a movie. But this
Speaker 2: is exactly what what is defined as terrorism for a
Speaker 2: lot of people. That's what they would now accuse Israel
Speaker 2: of doing. Is using the same terrorist tactics I suppose
Speaker 2: against Hesba law that has belaw would use against them.
Speaker 2: It's time for what you watch on Wednesday. The following
Speaker 2: program is brought to you in living color, but you
Speaker 2: watch it in there. Americans love television. They win their
Speaker 2: kids on USA television. Man, you've been watching too many
Speaker 2: of those live television shows. I just watched saying a
Speaker 2: half percent increase. Wait, no, it's a decrease. Okay, said
Speaker 2: it twice already. Let's get it straight. Yes, decrease.
Speaker 1: I watched the Mickey seventeen trailer in the break there
Speaker 1: with Robert Pattinson. This is the director, the same director
Speaker 1: who did Parasite, Bong June Ho, and it looks really good.
Speaker 1: It's kind of just like this weird sci fi futuristic
Speaker 1: thing of where you can sign up to be an
Speaker 1: expendable and humanity learns all sorts of scientific knowledge and
Speaker 1: wonderful things by each death that you go through. And
Speaker 1: it seems like this guy goes through seventeen deaths. That's
Speaker 1: why it's called Mickey seventeen. It's funny but dark, kind
Speaker 1: of like Parasite. I don't remember Parasite being very funny.
Speaker 1: I remember it being a great movie. I don't remember
Speaker 1: humor in it. There was humor, okay, I trust you.
Speaker 1: That's one of the three trailers that's up on the website.
Speaker 1: Go to kfiam six forty dot com slash Gary and
Speaker 1: Shannon and you'll find.
Speaker 2: Those trailers out there. You can check them out. I
Speaker 2: didn't realize Dancing with the Stars new season is out
Speaker 2: season thirty three. I had no idea that Anna Delviy
Speaker 2: is on the show this season.
Speaker 3: So it's here's who's on it.
Speaker 1: Danny Ammondola, of course, wide receiver played with the Patriots forever.
Speaker 1: Anna Delvey that was the one who scammed her way
Speaker 1: into New York High society, defrauding people financial institutions over
Speaker 1: two hundred thousand dollars. She this is a fun twist,
Speaker 1: will be wearing an ankle monitor on the show, okay.
Speaker 1: She was released from prison in twenty nineteen and is
Speaker 1: currently serving house arrest. The next guy, Joey Graziati. I
Speaker 1: didn't know this guy. I guess he was on the Bachelor,
Speaker 1: and he was also on something else. He's a tennis instructor.
Speaker 1: Dwight Howard of course from the Lakers. Chandler Kinney, who
Speaker 1: is an actor. She's been on Zombies, a Disney movie series,
Speaker 1: and that in Lethal Weapon as well. That rugby player
Speaker 1: that won the bronze medal in Paris, Iona Maher, she's
Speaker 1: on there.
Speaker 2: Oh you know what I did see her? She seemed
Speaker 2: very stiff.
Speaker 3: Oh did she?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, and I mean literally like just not flexible.
Speaker 2: She's massively muscular. Yes, she's got thighs like Volkswagens, but
Speaker 2: she just didn't seem very what do you.
Speaker 3: Call her thighs?
Speaker 1: Could eat your thighs for an appetizer, Oh they wouldn't.
Speaker 2: Even she could pick her teeth with my thighs.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Brooks Nader model, she's been in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit
Speaker 1: issue multiple times.
Speaker 3: Gorgeous.
Speaker 1: And then remember our clerk Kent from the Olympics, the
Speaker 1: horse pommel horse guy horse Stephen net Rosick.
Speaker 2: I saw him as well. And the only reason I'm
Speaker 2: watching it is because it's on Channel whatever. It's Channel
Speaker 2: seven here. We have it on in the studio and
Speaker 2: they're showing him earlier today.
Speaker 1: Oh, I was wondering how how explain that because it
Speaker 1: sounded so much, well, it sounded like the only reason
Speaker 1: I'm watching that, like I'm watching it at home, and
Speaker 1: I thought you were going to try and make some
Speaker 1: sort of sort of story up that, like your home
Speaker 1: television is stuck on channel seven.
Speaker 2: I chose the wrong word. The only reason I saw
Speaker 2: that is because it was on in the studio here.
Speaker 3: Phaedra Parks is also on it.
Speaker 1: Eric Roberts as well, he because he was on the
Speaker 1: Dark Night and some other things.
Speaker 3: Soy spelling is on. We saw her.
Speaker 2: Eric Roberts is out with a new book, isn't he.
Speaker 2: I think he's a new memoir where he talks about
Speaker 2: his riff with his sister that he was very upset about.
Speaker 3: Oh, he's the brother of Julia Roberts.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you didn't know that.
Speaker 3: No, I didn't know what's their fight about.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I didn't realize that they had a fight.
Speaker 2: But he said they had a fight and that he
Speaker 2: was very upset about it.
Speaker 1: Weird, that's good information from us. Who wants to hear
Speaker 1: that story? Like who wants that dirty Laundry aired?
Speaker 2: I maybe they've gotten over it, and he just is
Speaker 2: embarrassed about the fact that they had a fight in
Speaker 2: the first place.
Speaker 1: In the press, the long standing fight was fueled by
Speaker 1: his infamous quote, if it wasn't for me, there would
Speaker 1: be no Julia Roberts. Apparently he found success ahead of
Speaker 1: her with projects like Star eighty and The Pope of
Speaker 1: Greenwich Village, but her stardom soon eclipped eclipsed his, and
Speaker 1: he had a cocaine addiction.
Speaker 2: Oh well, that'll do it.
Speaker 3: That's a memoir you'd read.
Speaker 2: I don't read memoirs for the most part, so I
Speaker 2: don't think I'm gonna get on that one. But I
Speaker 2: did see a stand another stand up over the week
Speaker 2: and yeah, over the weekend I watched. It's an actual
Speaker 2: old one, but it's a guy named Nick Thune. Grew
Speaker 2: up in Seattle, lives in LA and had a couple
Speaker 2: of different specials. Nick Thune good guy from twenty seventeen.
Speaker 2: He's he's been in a bunch of different movies. I
Speaker 2: don't know if you'd necessarily recognize his face or anything,
Speaker 2: but he was like he was in Knocked Up, he
Speaker 2: was in Spring Breakdown. He's been in a couple of
Speaker 2: things like the Breakup Girl and but he was very,
Speaker 2: very funny. I liked it. Nick Thune was and it
Speaker 2: recalled a bunch of Seattle stories too, which always nice
Speaker 2: when you know the places that these people are talking about.
Speaker 1: I started watching The Perfect Couple. Is that what the
Speaker 1: name of it is? The Netflix with Theiv Schreiver and
Speaker 1: Sliv Schreiver and Nicole Kidman and Jacob and I were
Speaker 1: talking about it earlier. It's it's odd because those two
Speaker 1: do a great job so far.
Speaker 3: I just started it.
Speaker 1: Those two do a great job because they're very talented actors.
Speaker 3: The supporting cast is, as.
Speaker 1: Jacob put it, overacting, almost like a soap opera type
Speaker 1: of a.
Speaker 2: Thing, like they're trying to catch up to Nicole and live.
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I couldn't put my finger on it.
Speaker 1: I thought he said that perfectly. It's exactly what it
Speaker 1: feels like, a little overacting, maybe too many pauses, too
Speaker 1: many staring into different you know, situations, and the abyss.
Speaker 3: It's just kind of that weird soap opera timing as well.
Speaker 2: It's all about a woman about to marry into one
Speaker 2: of the wealthiest families on Nantucket. Until there's a death
Speaker 2: that derails the wedding.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a rich family that has this sprawling estate.
Speaker 1: Everyone comes to the estate for the wedding and the rehearsal,
Speaker 1: dinner and everything, and so far it's a classic who
Speaker 1: done it? Everyone has a motive. That's how they've set
Speaker 1: up as the episode one and two is just that everyone.
Speaker 1: They're laying out everyone's motive to do something and to
Speaker 1: be involved with this.
Speaker 3: Murder, seemingly murder that right now, I.
Speaker 1: Don't know if it's an accidental drowning or a murder,
Speaker 1: And that's that's how they're laying it out.
Speaker 2: That's good. The one headline I saw about it. My
Speaker 2: wife has also started watching it. The only headline I
Speaker 2: saw about it was that Nicole Kidman and Live Schreier
Speaker 2: have some sort of sex scene. Live Shreiver happens to
Speaker 2: be the ex husband of Nicole Kidman's best friend. I
Speaker 2: think Naomi wats oh interesting, Like that would be an
Speaker 2: odd day on the set, wouldn't it.
Speaker 1: It's funny because where I'm at in a series, it
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like these two have sex.
Speaker 2: It's barely a sex scene. Oh really, it's nothing. Jacob
Speaker 2: you like them hotter than that as well.
Speaker 3: I mean that's like kids stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just kids stuff, Bob, just kids, it's just
Speaker 2: kids stuff.
Speaker 1: Does Deborah have any sex shows to recommend? Oh? Boy? Uh,
Speaker 1: it's been a dry spell at line.
Speaker 3: Oh no, I know. I need to go find something.
Speaker 2: I really I need that. Right now we are in
Speaker 2: the middle of what you're watching. Wednesday, were talking about
Speaker 2: The Perfect Couple on Netflix.
Speaker 1: He Gary Channon, it's Becky. So the girl in the
Speaker 1: Perfect Couple is actually.
Speaker 2: The daughter of Bono.
Speaker 3: Oh, I didn't know if you knew that.
Speaker 2: The young girl I think you it's about to get married. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I know you you do.
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 2: Bye. Eve Houston is her name. She was in Bad Sisters,
Speaker 2: among other things. She's also played the title role in
Speaker 2: the musical film Flora and Son that just came out
Speaker 2: last year.
Speaker 1: I just watched the Woman of the Hour teaser that
Speaker 1: is up on our website at Gary and Shannon. And
Speaker 1: this is the one that was inspired by the story
Speaker 1: of Rodney al Kaala, remember him the serial killer in
Speaker 1: the seventies who went on the dating game. So and
Speaker 1: Anna Kendrick is directing this one and it's starring right
Speaker 1: and starring it is. It is a chilling thriller, as
Speaker 1: it's described, and it certainly feels that way looking at
Speaker 1: the teaser. This is a woman who Cheryl Bradshaw was
Speaker 1: her name, who appeared on the dating show with him
Speaker 1: The Dating Game, of course, and the synopsis says the
Speaker 1: stranger then fiction story of an aspiring actress in seventies
Speaker 1: Los Angeles and a serial killer in the midst of
Speaker 1: a year's long murder spree whose lives intersect when they're
Speaker 1: cast on The Dating Game.
Speaker 2: Yeah. But it's an interesting cast of actors that are
Speaker 2: involved here, because a lot of them are our comedians.
Speaker 2: Tony Hale most recognizable, probably from Arrested Development and Veep,
Speaker 2: Nicolette Robinson, Pete Holmes stand up comedian Pete Holmes. So
Speaker 2: very the interesting cast. But Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick
Speaker 2: are also coming back for a simple favor too.
Speaker 1: Oh that's cool. I think they left that opened, didn't they.
Speaker 2: I do remember that being sort of available, perhaps for
Speaker 2: a new one.
Speaker 1: I watched a Brothers trailer on the website. That's not
Speaker 1: for me, that's not that's for me, that's not for you.
Speaker 2: I love that you know that. I love that. That's
Speaker 2: a good thing. The Office is going to come back,
Speaker 2: and I am I am gobsmacked. I think is a
Speaker 2: correct term. Of course. The Office was originally a Ricky
Speaker 2: Gervais vehicle in the UK, and I believe it only
Speaker 2: had a season or two. The UK version comes to
Speaker 2: the United States. Everybody knows David Michael Scott, of course,
Speaker 2: played by Steve Carell as the Boss, this bumbling boss.
Speaker 2: Now they're talking about a spin off, kind of a
Speaker 2: continuation of that called The Paper, which will err On Peacock,
Speaker 2: but an Australian version, and the official trailer has finally dropped.
Speaker 2: That's going to be on Amazon Prime. Big announcement. Can
Speaker 2: I have a drum roll? Place the drum roll Lloyd's
Speaker 2: drum roll?
Speaker 1: People ask me how can I be come a gripe boss,
Speaker 1: And the answer is having a happy stuff.
Speaker 2: That love you found. This is a proper Hi John
Speaker 2: not man. I mean, it's it's got all this at
Speaker 2: least familiar characters, the actors you probably wouldn't know, but
Speaker 2: it's The Office Australia. Here's what gobsmacked to me. Here's
Speaker 2: what I didn't realize. Do you have any idea. How
Speaker 2: many versions like original vert that makes sense? Original versions
Speaker 2: of the office. There are no I'm going to tell
Speaker 2: you three. No, there's one in the United States, there's
Speaker 2: one in the UK. There's one in Australia that's coming out.
Speaker 2: There's one in Canada, in Chile, in the Czech Republic,
Speaker 2: in Finland, in France, in Germany and Greece, in India, Israel, Poland,
Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia and Sweden, they all had their own versions
Speaker 2: of makes that Office show?
Speaker 1: It makes sense because that's the vehicle, right. Everybody works
Speaker 1: in an office. There's different characters in an office. But
Speaker 1: the humor that we would have in our American offices
Speaker 1: is different than the kind of humor they'd have in
Speaker 1: the UK, or in Finland or what have you. Different jokes,
Speaker 1: different personalities, different experiences. So I can see where it
Speaker 1: would work for everybody. You just got to change the
Speaker 1: dialogue to fit your culture.
Speaker 2: And everybody knows. Michael Scott from the US version of
Speaker 2: it as sort of the regional manager for this paper company.
Speaker 2: In India it was jag Deep Chada and in Sweden
Speaker 2: it was Ova Sundberg. I didn't know that there were
Speaker 2: that many different versions of it.
Speaker 1: Did you know where the word gobsmacked came from?
Speaker 2: I think it was somebody who was hitting the face
Speaker 2: with a fish.
Speaker 1: No, it is a British word.
Speaker 2: But are you telling me that was not connected to
Speaker 2: people being hit in the face with fish?
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Ah, well, I don't believe fish
Speaker 1: are involved. But if you want to believe that, that's
Speaker 1: fine too.
Speaker 2: I was smacked in the my gob by a fish.
Speaker 2: Maybe I think there's fish in there somewhere. Ted Sarandos
Speaker 2: is challenging all of the streaming competitors. Of course, he's
Speaker 2: one of the CEOs of Netflix. He wants them to
Speaker 2: be as trend parent as Netflix when it comes to
Speaker 2: publicizing what viewers are watching. Here's the thing, does Netflix
Speaker 2: really are they really honest about how many people are watching?
Speaker 2: You've you've strolled through the old Netflix main page right
Speaker 2: and asked yourself, how in the world is Suits a
Speaker 2: Canadian show ranked number one in the United States? Why
Speaker 2: do people keep watching that show? Or why is something
Speaker 2: like Working Men the old Emilio estevej Charlie Sheen Vehicle?
Speaker 2: Why is that the number three most popular movie being
Speaker 2: watched in the United States today? Movie I know, but
Speaker 2: it's thirty years old.
Speaker 1: The word originated in England and Scotland in the mid
Speaker 1: nineteen thirties. It's a combination of the word's gob, which
Speaker 1: is slang for mouth, and smack, which is a verb
Speaker 1: that means to hit all that I feel like you've
Speaker 1: been hitting the mouth? Did you feel like you were
Speaker 1: hitting the mouth? With that information about that show More.
Speaker 2: In the Ears, Less in the Mouth, ABC is finding
Speaker 2: themselves in a little bit of hot water. Of course,
Speaker 2: it turns out that there was a bachelorette contestant, not
