WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839 AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand 3 00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:07.320 on the iHeartRadio app. 4 00:00:08.759 --> 00:00:11.199 Neil Savadra in for Gary and Shannon. Today. 5 00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:15.919 Marla was supposed to be with me marlateas Fox eleven's 6 00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:18.320 TVs Marla Teas. 7 00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:23.760 But she's under the weather today. She's not feeling well. 8 00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:30.320 So although I went ahead and texted her and said, hey, 9 00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:32.159 I want you to feel better, I do want to 10 00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:38.039 make some scientific point to you. Yesterday we were talking 11 00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:40.679 about that new study. It's actually a study that's been 12 00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:46.520 replicated multiple times about how endurance runners and endurance athletes 13 00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:55.759 have higher cases of calcium in their main arteries. And 14 00:00:55.799 --> 00:00:58.119 we talked about that a little bit yesterday. Now, I 15 00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:03.799 am not a scientist. That is not my job. However, 16 00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:07.000 I will tell you fat guy in the studio today, 17 00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:14.000 skinny runner at home sick. Moving on to more science, 18 00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:17.480 COVID maps. I love this. I don't know what it 19 00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:22.120 is with COVID and the color schemes. You remember we 20 00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:24.599 had all those color charts, but they never had green 21 00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:29.799 on them because Captain Hansome, our governor, said well, because 22 00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:32.120 we're never basically never going to be in the green 23 00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:35.000 sot out all these different color charts. We had to 24 00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:37.799 remember as to what place we were in. Well, now 25 00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:42.280 I'm staring out a newsweek dot com a map of 26 00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:48.680 these United States, and there's like a deep red, there's 27 00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:52.840 a bright red, there's white. There's a golden bar. Sorry 28 00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:55.680 I used to work in the printing industry, a gold 29 00:01:55.760 --> 00:02:00.680 color like golden rod or something like that, and it's 30 00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:05.840 very colorful. With the headline COVID map update shows states 31 00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:10.680 with very high viral activity in wastewater. So what does 32 00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:14.080 that mean. Well, the current way that they are testing 33 00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:23.400 how this virus moves is in our movements. They go 34 00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:27.080 through the wastewater and they look for viral content and 35 00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:31.360 they are finding this surge in wastewater that has very 36 00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:34.840 high levels. And this is in the vast majority of 37 00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:38.360 the states. This is the CDC looking at this and 38 00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:42.280 saying this is their concern. Not only is it up 39 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:48.120 from July. It was just in seven states or so 40 00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:51.479 in mid July. Now it's up in August. They fear 41 00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:54.400 that this past weekend everybody was up and around. Did 42 00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:58.439 you see everything? My wife and my son while I 43 00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:02.439 was on the area yesterday went to the roller rink. Yeah, 44 00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:05.800 that's still a thing, and said it was packed. The 45 00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:10.080 beaches have been packed, and the fear is there's going 46 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:15.599 to be another burst of the covids. However, going through 47 00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:20.919 the numbers and poking around a little bit, as far 48 00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:24.439 as the steady rise and infections is seen in the 49 00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:32.520 waste water, that still the hospitalizations have remained relatively low. 50 00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:39.919 So all these different standards or you know, makeshift rules 51 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:43.199 that we went through in the past four plus years, 52 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:51.599 roughly four years, I guess are they keep changing like 53 00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:54.919 the goalposts were? I mean, why are they telling us 54 00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:58.919 that it's in the poop if it's not in the hospitals. 55 00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:02.840 Do you remember flat in the curve? May we take 56 00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:09.520 a little wayback machine when it was about flattening the 57 00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:15.439 curve and the problem then was about the strain on 58 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:21.000 the hospitals. So if people are not dying in the 59 00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:26.600 same numbers, and we have the vaccine and yes I've 60 00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:31.199 taken the vaccine multiple times, as has my wife and 61 00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:36.759 as has my son, that we have all these things 62 00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:41.680 now and we're still getting maps and colorful things and 63 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.600 all of this, yet we're not seeing the surge or 64 00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:48.279 the problems. My sister was the first one in the 65 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:51.560 Caneo Valley to be hospitalized for it. 66 00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:54.319 She was secluded. 67 00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:59.720 And basically people in hazmat suits, nurses god bless them, 68 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.759 and has matt suits had to take care of her. 69 00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:06.839 With very very very rare exceptions. 70 00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:10.240 And I could be seen as that I have, you know, 71 00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:17.079 multiple comorbidities, which is worse than like calling me morbidly obese. 72 00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:22.839 There's something about comorbidity that's like, oh, all right, fatty, 73 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:27.199 You've got multiple reasons to fear this thing. So I've got, 74 00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:30.279 you know, repressed or suppressed immune system. It might be 75 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:35.319 repressed as well, suppressed immune system, all of these things, 76 00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:39.480 and and still I can go out and live. I've 77 00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.399 not gotten it yet, nor has my wife that we 78 00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:43.439 are aware of. If we did, it would have been 79 00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:46.040 prior to the outbreak. It would have been in November 80 00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:50.560 of twenty nineteen. That's the most sick I have been 81 00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.879 in a long time, and it was right before my 82 00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:56.360 surgery to get my kidney transplant. 83 00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:02.160 I just think, is it real absence? Can it be problematic? Yeah? 84 00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:07.759 To some most definitely fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, 85 00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:10.920 muscle or body aches, headache, gloss of taste or smell, 86 00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:14.120 sore throat running. That's basically the list you have as 87 00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:18.000 a parent when you wake up, nausea or vomiting, Yeah, 88 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:23.040 sometimes diarrhea. Well, you know, I like spicy food. So 89 00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:26.240 we still get these things. And it's not that it's 90 00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:31.240 not important for us to know, but we we don't. 91 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:31.519 Have a. 92 00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:35.560 There's not a goal or an enemy anymore. There's not 93 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:37.199 a face of an enemy. There's no one. 94 00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:41.240 It's like this. This just kind of. 95 00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:47.399 Blob that it's there. It's not flattening the curve. It's 96 00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:49.720 not be careful of this, be careful of that. We're 97 00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.319 told that masks don't really do anything, mostly because of 98 00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:55.480 you user error, by the way, and all. 99 00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:55.959 Of these things. 100 00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:59.519 And yet we're still concerned about it, even though the 101 00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:03.879 CDC he says hospitalizations have remained relatively low. And if 102 00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:07.160 that's not the concern, and people aren't dying in the 103 00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:09.759 same way young people certainly are not, then what is 104 00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:10.600 our concern with that? 105 00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:14.639 Are they saying now that it's kind of become like 106 00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:18.600 the flu in that it's seasonal and that we should 107 00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:22.439 start getting just planned to get regularly vaccinated for it. Like, yeah, 108 00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:25.279 adding it to the flu, the RSV, the COVID vaccine, 109 00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:26.079 you know what I mean, Like. 110 00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:27.279 Heather Brooker, you are right. 111 00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:29.560 Did you get a story today with a color frol 112 00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:30.639 map about the flu? 113 00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:33.839 I didn't, But you know, I interviewed an epidemiologist this 114 00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:37.319 morning on wake up Call, and she talked about kind 115 00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:40.079 of talk about ahead of the curve. 116 00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:40.920 No. 117 00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:44.959 He talked about how this new variant that's out there 118 00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:49.000 is pretty serious and can can cause more harm if 119 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:54.439 you don't get vaccinated, like if you get COVID, the 120 00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:57.279 damage it can do and risk or whatever will outweigh 121 00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:59.759 just anything with the COVID shots. So he said that 122 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.560 this new vaccine will be out any day now, really, 123 00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:05.240 and that everybody should plan to get it, and they 124 00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:08.000 should plan to get it sometime in September October pretty 125 00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:08.639 much every year. 126 00:08:08.800 --> 00:08:11.639 Oh yeah, and there's the long COVID and there's a 127 00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:13.839 lot of haziness. I've talked to people who said they 128 00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:19.519 never quite fully recovered or felt like themselves. Again, there's 129 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.959 definitely stuff to it, but I think we're in that 130 00:08:23.079 --> 00:08:27.120 stage where get vaccinated, you know, take care of yourself, 131 00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:29.839 and it's going to be around forever. 132 00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:34.080 It is like luggage. It is not going away anytime soon. 133 00:08:34.320 --> 00:08:36.000 So that is that, all right? 134 00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:40.720 Five shot too critically or too in critical condition in 135 00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:43.440 New York City. There was a parade yesterday, a big 136 00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:48.000 parade and one that has been rife with warnings for many, 137 00:08:48.039 --> 00:08:51.080 many years. And we'll find out more about that as 138 00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:54.440 we talk to Derek Dennis from ABC News. 139 00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:58.679 So go nowhere. Nils Savedra in for Gary and Shannon 140 00:08:58.759 --> 00:08:59.279 this morning. 141 00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:04.200 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 142 00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:05.679 AM six forty. 143 00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:10.480 Neil Savedra KFI AM six forty live everywhere on the 144 00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:13.360 iHeartRadio app. It is the Gary and Shannon Show.

I'm here to talk about terrible shooting at 158 00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:06.799 the New York Carnival Caribbean Parade, known here as the 159 00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:10.279 West Indian Day Parade, was yesterday. In the middle of 160 00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:15.320 the parade, there was a shooting. Five people shot by 161 00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:18.960 a single gunman, and authorities just updated us saying that 162 00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:22.840 they believe the shooting was not only targeted, but gang related. 163 00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:28.840 But still the victims appear to have all been innocent bystanders. 164 00:10:28.919 --> 00:10:32.799 They are celebrating the parade. And one thing to note, 165 00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:35.440 the parade went on as planned. 166 00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:40.440 Many people didn't even notice right something take place. 167 00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:45.080 It was so loud, so many people, so much going on, 168 00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:48.799 that a lot of the parade goers had no idea 169 00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:50.639 there was a shooting along the route. 170 00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.759 This is a parade that happens every year, same time 171 00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:59.440 in New York City's Caribbean community, and very colorful right 172 00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:02.919 into so let you know those who have never seen 173 00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:07.279 it or heard of it. It is packed, It is 174 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:11.480 incredibly celebratory. It is, like you said, loud and all 175 00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:14.159 these things and the four other victims other than the 176 00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:17.399 twenty five year old who man who was shot in 177 00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:21.519 the abdomen and dies, right, yeah, so other than that, 178 00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:25.759 there were four other victims, and these ages show you 179 00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:29.159 the diversity and the type of people that are going 180 00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:31.519 to this event. You've got a sixteen year old boy 181 00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:36.840 since my nine year old woman. They're in stable condition, correct. 182 00:11:37.799 --> 00:11:41.840 Right, the sixty nine year olds who shot in the shoulder, 183 00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:45.360 the sixteen year old shot in the left arm. A 184 00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:47.720 thirty six year old man though was shot in the head, 185 00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:52.080 so he's you know, his injuries are serious. And then 186 00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:54.159 there was a sixty four year old man shot in 187 00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:59.120 the arm. So listen, you know, authorys really want to 188 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:03.240 catch the suspect. They're holding news conferences, they're asking the 189 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:06.639 public if anybody's got any cell phone video to please 190 00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:11.480 come forward. They believe that they may have someone, or 191 00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:15.799 at least a description that will lead them to make 192 00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:19.480 an arrest of the suspect, and so they're working hard 193 00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:22.200 on that, tracking down every lead. They really want to 194 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:25.559 catch this person because look, if they can open fire 195 00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:28.559 in the middle of a crowded parade, what else can 196 00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:32.440 they do? And that's what the concern is Derek going over. 197 00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:37.600 Some you know, past stories about this event. Some have 198 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:40.960 said that they've heard, you know, there's been violence before. 199 00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:44.279 They even last year they said they heard gunfire. It 200 00:12:44.360 --> 00:12:48.519 has been noted in the news that they were on 201 00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:53.720 high alert already. I even see photographs of security and 202 00:12:54.320 --> 00:13:01.039 the NYPD holding you know, the magnetometers, the metal detectors 203 00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:04.679 handheld as people are coming in and out. They had 204 00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:07.919 heightened security for this year knowing that there could be 205 00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:12.080 the possibility of problems. Were they anticipating something dealing with 206 00:13:12.200 --> 00:13:15.720 gangs or general just because there were you know, large 207 00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:17.679 amounts of humanity in one place. 208 00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:21.000 Well large amounts. But there have been shootings and other 209 00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:24.000 incidents in the past at this very parade. In fact, 210 00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:29.320 in twenty fifteen, an aid to then mayor build a 211 00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:33.360 Blasio of New York City was shot and later died 212 00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:36.840 as a result of being shot during the parade. So 213 00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:41.320 there's some history here with this event. Be for it 214 00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:46.120 to happen just yesterday and for the guvernment to still 215 00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:49.039 be on the run has got everyone really concerned. 216 00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:53.759 And any leads are they not? You know mums the 217 00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:55.960 word with the New York Police Department. 218 00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:59.799 Yeah, I mean other than a good description. You know, 219 00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:02.440 they're tracking down a bunch of leads, but they don't 220 00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:05.759 have any that they really want to go full on 221 00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:09.320 public with yet. They are asking, though, as I mentioned, 222 00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:12.320 for cell phone video to try to piece it all together. 223 00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:14.279 And you know, everybody's got a cell phone in their hand, 224 00:14:14.360 --> 00:14:17.759 everybody's got a camera, and there are street cameras as well, 225 00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:21.799 so it won't be long before they, you know, seem 226 00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:24.720 to get at least a handle on who they're looking for. 227 00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:29.279 But they're confident in their statement they being the NYPD, 228 00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:33.159 that it is gang related, that it was targeted. I'm 229 00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:36.279 guessing that's based on the twenty five year old who. 230 00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:38.279 Was shot, right. 231 00:14:38.840 --> 00:14:42.240 You know, they haven't gone very deep into how they 232 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:46.320 know it was gang related. They haven't gone into you know, 233 00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:49.960 a lot of their what they've gathered so far in 234 00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:53.080 terms of questioning and evidence and those types of things. 235 00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:56.480 But they did come out pretty forcefully today saying the 236 00:14:56.519 --> 00:14:59.120 shooting was gang related, after saying yesterday that it was 237 00:14:59.159 --> 00:15:03.399 definitely targeted. So they've got some information that they're going on. 238 00:15:03.679 --> 00:15:03.879 Yeah. 239 00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:06.480 I just look over at this and I figure sixteen 240 00:15:06.559 --> 00:15:09.360 year old boy maybe, but sixty nine year old woman 241 00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:12.320 probably not the target. Twenty five year old man probably 242 00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:16.879 hits that nose right on the nose rather all right, well, 243 00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:19.759 I appreciate you taking the time a sad story, indeed 244 00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:23.240 during a what should have been just a great celebratory 245 00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:29.519 event about you know, the emancipation from enslavement and the parade, 246 00:15:29.519 --> 00:15:32.360 the annual parade that celebrates that. 247 00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:33.639 And it's a real shame. 248 00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:37.480 Derek Dennis of ABC News with Us this morning, Thanks 249 00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:38.120 so much, Derek. 250 00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:41.159 Sure than all right, stick around. There is much more 251 00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:41.519 to come. 252 00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:45.360 Net and Yahoo is getting a major pressure there over 253 00:15:45.399 --> 00:15:49.840 the Gaza and over Gaza and hostages, the latest six 254 00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:56.840 that were dead, you know, and it's a really weird 255 00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:00.759 tight rope to walk, because that's I'd piss you off 256 00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:06.879 all the more about hamas at AnyWho and then young 257 00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:10.600 people taking over the workplace a good thing, bad thing. Well, 258 00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:13.360 bosses may not be thrilled. I will tell you why 259 00:16:13.600 --> 00:16:16.600 it is. Neil Savandra in for Gary and Shannon today. 260 00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:21.639 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 261 00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:24.559 Am six forty. 262 00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:26.960 If you aren't hanging out with me on social media, 263 00:16:27.039 --> 00:16:29.840 I invite you to do so. At Fork Reporter at 264 00:16:29.960 --> 00:16:33.240 Fork Reporter on all the biggies, and I'm probably on 265 00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:34.720 Instagram the most. 266 00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:35.399 I will tell you. 267 00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:40.720 I posted an image of a breakfast meal earlier today. 268 00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:43.879 You could find it on my Instagram at fork Reporter, 269 00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:46.360 and it's one of my favorites. I don't know if 270 00:16:46.360 --> 00:16:48.519 I got it from my mom or from my dad 271 00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.679 or from a brother or sister or something, but I 272 00:16:51.759 --> 00:16:56.639 love it. And the responses are like, are funny because 273 00:16:56.639 --> 00:16:59.279 people are saying, oh, like core memory unlocked. 274 00:16:59.320 --> 00:17:01.120 So you can check that out at Folk Reporter. 275 00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:02.120 All right. 276 00:17:02.159 --> 00:17:03.519 On too crappy news. 277 00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:08.519 The discovery of six more dead hostages in the battle 278 00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:16.400 that continues to rage in Gaza with Israel is heartbreaking period. 279 00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:18.000 War sucks. 280 00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:25.160 People being killed sucks, Muslims being killed sucks. Israeli's being 281 00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:29.839 killed sucks. War sucks. I think you know where I 282 00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:34.880 stand on all of that. It sucks, but you and 283 00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:38.119 I will never have to feel, hopefully, will never have 284 00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:40.200 to be in the position of making the decisions that 285 00:17:40.279 --> 00:17:40.960 go with. 286 00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:42.640 War. 287 00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:49.440 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin net Yahoo, however, is in a 288 00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:54.559 different position and he is pushing back. There is lots 289 00:17:54.559 --> 00:18:00.000 of pressure pushing against him. This is because of those 290 00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:06.880 most recent hostages that were discovered. He is now pushing 291 00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:11.480 back in an intense way and saying do not and 292 00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:17.480 you cannot preach to me on this issue. He says, 293 00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:20.440 no one is more committed to freeing the hostages than me. 294 00:18:21.000 --> 00:18:24.759 No one will preach to me on this issue. Now, 295 00:18:24.799 --> 00:18:32.640 I will tell you from my observation, Benjamin Netanyahoo is 296 00:18:32.720 --> 00:18:43.599 a strict, brick fortified, lacking nuanced individual. He has one 297 00:18:44.279 --> 00:18:49.559 core purpose and one core purpose only, and that is 298 00:18:49.599 --> 00:18:51.359 to eliminate Hamas. 299 00:18:52.039 --> 00:18:54.480 Will he be able to do it. No. 300 00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:01.160 It is the equivalent in that region the world of 301 00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:07.000 saying I want to eliminate crime. There will always be 302 00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:09.759 new criminals. If you wiped out one game, there will 303 00:19:09.799 --> 00:19:14.839 be another game. You know why because on the other side, 304 00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:20.559 there is an equal amount of individuals that are a 305 00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:24.960 brick fortified, unyielding and lacking nuance when it comes to 306 00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:28.559 their focus, which is to eliminate not only the Jews, 307 00:19:30.359 --> 00:19:37.640 but Christians and other belief systems and gays and to 308 00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:42.000 control women in all of these things. Not a good 309 00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:46.920 group of humans. Now, does that mean that Muslims are 310 00:19:46.960 --> 00:19:50.680 that way? No, absolutely not. I've always said that when 311 00:19:50.720 --> 00:19:56.119 people say Muslim terrorists or Islamic terrorists, that they put 312 00:19:56.160 --> 00:20:00.119 the emphasis on the wrong thing. They put the emphasis 313 00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:05.279 on the Islam part and not the terrorist part. Islam fine, 314 00:20:05.839 --> 00:20:12.039 terrorism bad. And in this particular case, you've got one 315 00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:16.359 major sticking point with Netanyahu that he feels is the 316 00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:22.279 choke point. He feels is the breath, the oxygen producer 317 00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:30.720 of Hamas in Gaza, and that is the Philadelphi Corridor. 318 00:20:31.559 --> 00:20:35.640 That's this tiny, little narrow band. I know it's already small, 319 00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:40.480 but this narrow band along Gaza's border, this border is 320 00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:46.799 with Egypt, and Israel's belief is that Hamas smuggles weapons 321 00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:52.599 into Gaza from this location. Egypt denies it, and Hamas 322 00:20:52.680 --> 00:20:56.960 denies it. Now Hamas, who gives a rodents behind whether 323 00:20:57.039 --> 00:21:01.039 they deny anything, because they're pieces of crap and they 324 00:21:01.039 --> 00:21:01.480 don't care. 325 00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:04.119 But this is it. 326 00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:10.160 Net Nyaho called this corridor vital, that it is the 327 00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:17.880 location that re arms Hamas, and that this is the 328 00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:27.640 thing that he doesn't want to give up. These hostages 329 00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:34.920 were not killed because net Nyaho is negotiating poorly. In 330 00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:41.240 my view, these hostages were killed because there is a 331 00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:48.480 group of very dark and ugly people running Gaza, and 332 00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:51.359 they are a terrorist group by the name of Hamas. 333 00:21:55.039 --> 00:21:56.200 And I get. 334 00:21:57.599 --> 00:21:57.680 That. 335 00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:00.839 When you're in your home heaven Forbid, and someone breaks 336 00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:03.319 in and says, I want your money. You give them 337 00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:08.160 your money because you want them to leave your home 338 00:22:09.000 --> 00:22:12.200 and leave your family intact, I get those instincts. I'm 339 00:22:12.200 --> 00:22:15.119 on the street heaven forbid with my family, someone goes 340 00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:17.400 to mug us. I give them what they want, so 341 00:22:17.519 --> 00:22:21.519 my family is good. But if somebody comes into my 342 00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:24.799 house or mugs me on the street and says, give 343 00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:29.960 me everything, including your life, because my goal is for 344 00:22:30.039 --> 00:22:32.680 you to be dead, I have nothing to give them, 345 00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:37.599 and only everything in my heart and in my head 346 00:22:38.160 --> 00:22:43.079 to destroy them, because until they are destroyed, I will 347 00:22:43.119 --> 00:22:49.119 not be able to live. And that doesn't mean that 348 00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:51.680 I agree with the way this is being done. It's horrific, 349 00:22:53.759 --> 00:22:56.319 but man put it in a little bit of context 350 00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:59.319 about the ugliness of the situation. And it's not just 351 00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:05.640 give them the money, because more than six will die, 352 00:23:05.920 --> 00:23:08.039 and more than one hundred will die, and then more 353 00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:11.400 than a thousand will die, and over and over and 354 00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:18.240 over again. And Hamas and people like them will only 355 00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:22.000 be happy when all are gone. That is more than 356 00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:26.920 giving up your watch, your wallet and your credit cards. Neil, 357 00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:30.799 Savandra Infegary and Shannon today.

We 375 00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:32.240 talked a little bit about that yesterday. Of course, the 376 00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:36.599 ground is sliding at ten to twelve inches a week, 377 00:24:37.119 --> 00:24:40.079 pretty major when you're an inch and change. What a 378 00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:45.240 little about one point five one point seven inches a day. 379 00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:50.799 That's pretty crazy. So there's a lot going on. And 380 00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:54.799 Swap Watch coming up, and then Tasy Tuesday, who's coming 381 00:24:54.839 --> 00:24:57.440 into oh with Neil Savedra from the Forek Report. 382 00:24:57.519 --> 00:24:58.160 That should be fun. 383 00:24:58.200 --> 00:25:02.359 I like that guy. Seems like a friendly fella. All right, 384 00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:06.680 So young people taking over the workplace. That makes it 385 00:25:06.759 --> 00:25:09.680 sound like it's a swarm of locusts, but it's not. 386 00:25:09.880 --> 00:25:13.000 What it means is gen Z workers are going to 387 00:25:13.240 --> 00:25:16.880 outnumber at least that's what the numbers look like baby 388 00:25:16.920 --> 00:25:24.759 boomers in the US workforce this year. Okay, what's the problem. Well, unfortunately, 389 00:25:25.559 --> 00:25:31.119 bosses don't get them. They don't understand them. Now, many 390 00:25:31.160 --> 00:25:32.880 of you know, I've been here at KFI for a 391 00:25:32.920 --> 00:25:35.960 long time and I've worn just about every single hat. 392 00:25:36.920 --> 00:25:40.079 And my last hat was assistant program director, so I 393 00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:42.839 was in management. I have stepped away from management at 394 00:25:42.839 --> 00:25:43.279 this point. 395 00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:47.839 WHOOA look at me. I'm free, not really, sort of. 396 00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:51.440 But this is a thing. 397 00:25:51.640 --> 00:25:55.559 As you get an influx of different culture that comes 398 00:25:55.599 --> 00:25:58.759 with different generations, you have to adapt. You can't just 399 00:25:59.400 --> 00:26:01.960 strong armed people to do it the way that they've 400 00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:05.279 always done it. Now I have some pretty complex theories, 401 00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:07.960
