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. That music is a sign that
Speaker 1: Tony Sorrentino is on the board this morning. And in
Speaker 1: Gary's chair is Leaila Mohammed. Laila, thank you for being here.
Speaker 1: Good morning.
Speaker 2: I have way more energy today. By the way, I
Speaker 2: love Tony. We get stuck on the D list crew
Speaker 2: sometimes on weekend mornings where there's no one here but
Speaker 2: the two of us, and he's the best.
Speaker 1: I love Tony too. He's been here for five thousand years.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that about him. He told me that one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how many years has it been, Tony? He's like, so long,
Speaker 1: I don't even want to talk to you. Put eight
Speaker 1: since ninety seven? Why seven? Is that real? Yeah? The
Speaker 1: first day on the board was Dave Princess Danda died. Wow,
Speaker 1: what a start, I know, right, my gosh, I'm.
Speaker 2: Surprised they've kept you here that this long. Some people
Speaker 2: will take pretty quickly. I'm surprised you haven't burned the building.
Speaker 1: Down, I know, right, like I haven't planned what?
Speaker 3: All?
Speaker 1: Right, Well, we've got tons to get to today. Of
Speaker 1: course we'll start with the interview because I thought she
Speaker 1: did a great job. I mean, I've been waiting for
Speaker 1: this person to show up, Leila. I've gotten a lot
Speaker 1: of heat over the years because I've been disappointed in
Speaker 1: her appearances Kamala Harris of Courses, who were talking about
Speaker 1: I've been disappointed in her off the cuff remarks. I've
Speaker 1: heard bad things in terms of the coverage of her
Speaker 1: being difficult to work with and the exodus of her staff,
Speaker 1: and it's led me to believe that she is not
Speaker 1: a likable person because of that, and last night I
Speaker 1: think she hit it out of the park.
Speaker 2: I got up this morning to fully watch the interview
Speaker 2: because when it was on last night, I was unfortunately
Speaker 2: in one of those evening classes that last past nine.
Speaker 2: Won't talk about that, right, that's start, So I got
Speaker 2: up early watched the whole thing.
Speaker 1: I agree.
Speaker 2: I think her composure, I think her ability to remain
Speaker 2: clear and calm. She I love that she did not
Speaker 2: address some foolishness. And the one thing that I love
Speaker 2: that she did not address is the comment about whether
Speaker 2: or not she's black that has been driving me crazy
Speaker 2: for weeks. Now we can move on to something bigger
Speaker 2: and better.
Speaker 1: I love that she did not even touch it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we actually have that cut Tony is cut for.
Speaker 3: I want to ask you about your opponent's Donald Trump.
Speaker 3: I was a little bit surprised. People might be surprised
Speaker 3: to hear that you have never interacted with him, met
Speaker 3: him face to face.
Speaker 4: That's going to change soon.
Speaker 3: But what I want to ask you about is what
Speaker 3: he said last month. He suggested that you happened to
Speaker 3: turn black recently for political purposes, questioning a core park
Speaker 3: of your identity, any same old.
Speaker 1: Tired playbook, next question, Please, that's it. That's it. I mean,
Speaker 1: that was the way to do it. She's obviously a
Speaker 1: black woman, and that's all she needs to do is
Speaker 1: show up as a black woman.
Speaker 2: In my opinion, well, at the end of the day,
Speaker 2: we have to be honest about how we view people
Speaker 2: in this country and around the world, because I feel
Speaker 2: like in many cultures, not just America, many cultures, people
Speaker 2: who look browner or darker skin are treated differently.
Speaker 1: That's the bottom line. It is true.
Speaker 2: People will tell you that in Hispanic culture, they'll tell
Speaker 2: you that in Indian culture. At the end of the day,
Speaker 2: when people see klm ly they see a black woman
Speaker 2: before if we would have never told you that her
Speaker 2: mother was Indian. You look at her and you see
Speaker 2: that somewhere in the bloodline, somebody's black and it is
Speaker 2: what it is. But for that to be a whole
Speaker 2: campaign conversation, it's just ignorant. We have way more important
Speaker 2: things to worry about. People can't afford to live in
Speaker 2: their apartments, let alone by a house. You can't afford
Speaker 2: to go to the gas station, the grocery store. There's
Speaker 2: a lot going on. People are fighting for reproductive rights.
Speaker 2: We have bigger issues than whether or not a candidate
Speaker 2: is black. I don't know where, Honestly, I don't know
Speaker 2: where Trump's family is from. I don't care to go
Speaker 2: digging doesn't affect good lights. Who knows, I don't care.
Speaker 1: I don't want to. It's irrelevant. It's irrelevant. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I heard demeans.
Speaker 4: She learned.
Speaker 1: I think everyone learned from Hillary Clinton too, because Hillary
Speaker 1: hit us over the head with the fact that she's
Speaker 1: a woman, woman, woman, woman, and it drove me insane
Speaker 1: how people would say, well, because you're a woman, you
Speaker 1: have to vote for her. It's like when Biden said
Speaker 1: if if you don't vote for me, you wain't black?
Speaker 1: Why why ignorant to right all of that? Like, I
Speaker 1: just I get upset when people say, well, it's a woman,
Speaker 1: you should vote for her because she's a woman, And
Speaker 1: it's like, we don't all vote alike, we don't all
Speaker 1: have the same ideas or policies or preferences. Just because
Speaker 1: you're a woman doesn't mean you're that just like the
Speaker 1: next woman. Just because you're a black person doesn't mean
Speaker 1: you're like the next black person. So it bothers me
Speaker 1: that that is a talking point as well. And I'm
Speaker 1: glad that she put it to bed. And I think
Speaker 1: she did put that to bed.
Speaker 2: And Dana wasn't ready for that. I thought she was
Speaker 2: ready for a longer answer because she had to shift
Speaker 2: nervous in that moment, she had to shift quickly to
Speaker 2: the next question.
Speaker 1: I don't think she was.
Speaker 2: I think she probably thought the vice president has been
Speaker 2: a little bit longer addressing it. But why you know,
Speaker 2: I'm sitting down with you. What was this a thirty
Speaker 2: minute interview?
Speaker 1: I was cringing a little bit. When she's like, and
Speaker 1: that's it, I was like, yeah, I think that's it.
Speaker 1: To your point she did talk about well, first of all,
Speaker 1: before we get to the middle class. I thought it
Speaker 1: was very clever of her that she made an issue
Speaker 1: out of children. She said, I see you, JD. Vans,
Speaker 1: and I raise you. You can talk about the childless
Speaker 1: cat ladies, but I'm going to actually do something for
Speaker 1: people that have children. Tony cutt one.
Speaker 5: Prices in particular for groceries are still too high. The
Speaker 5: American people know what I know it, which is why
Speaker 5: my agenda includes what we need to do to bring
Speaker 5: down the price of groceries, for example, dealing with an
Speaker 5: issue like price gouging, what we need to do to
Speaker 5: extend the child tax credit to help young families be
Speaker 5: able to take care of their children in their most
Speaker 5: formative years. What we need to do to bring down
Speaker 5: the cost of housing. My proposal includes what would be
Speaker 5: a tax credit of twenty five thousand dollars for first
Speaker 5: time home buyers so they can just have enough to
Speaker 5: put a down payment on a home, which is part
Speaker 5: of the American dream and their aspiration, but do it
Speaker 5: in a way that allows them to actually get on
Speaker 5: the path to achieving that goal in that dream.
Speaker 1: And that's what people care about. To your point, that's
Speaker 1: what they care about. They care about grocery prices, they
Speaker 1: care about being able to get into a home. And
Speaker 1: she was very measured. She didn't appear to be condescending
Speaker 1: or defensive in this interview the way that she's come off.
Speaker 1: She came off that way with Lester Holt in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty one when he pressed her on the border and
Speaker 1: she just she had this look about her where she
Speaker 1: was just kind of drilling into him with her eyes
Speaker 1: like how dare you asked me this question? And it
Speaker 1: came across on TV and she did not have that.
Speaker 1: She was absent of that last night.
Speaker 2: Do you find yourself because of what we do and
Speaker 2: how you know, our job in interviewing people is also
Speaker 2: we read boy language and eye contact and do you
Speaker 2: find because we come from that perspective that we tend
Speaker 2: to do that and we're watching. Yes, So it's like
Speaker 2: with her, like you sit in the past, you may
Speaker 2: have come off as condescending or you know whatever her
Speaker 2: inner booth Lester Holt, I feel like maybe there's been
Speaker 2: some work with her and her team. Oh yeah, but
Speaker 2: the boot camp or yeah, there's some media coaching, some
Speaker 2: boot camping happening. Where I noticed it the most in
Speaker 2: watching was where she was talking about the nieces, the
Speaker 2: bacon and all that stuff, and that shift to Biden.
Speaker 1: It was like she was smiling.
Speaker 2: Oh, I was in the kitchen making pancakes and the
Speaker 2: maniece's wanted more bacon, and then Biden called and then
Speaker 2: that tone shift and that softening. I was like, ooh, yeah,
Speaker 2: someone's been studying. That was almost masterful.
Speaker 1: We'll play that, Yes, we'll play that for you when
Speaker 1: we come back. Also, why did CNN tease us with
Speaker 1: word salads? She had like two word salad moments that
Speaker 1: she's had in the past where she just says things
Speaker 1: without saying anything, And there were a couple moments of that,
Speaker 1: but that wasn't the takeaway. But those were the clips
Speaker 1: that they released initially, So we'll talk about that as well.
Speaker 6: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on Demand from KFI
Speaker 6: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: Coming up in the next hour, we will get to
Speaker 1: the story of the missing elderly couple from the Olive
Speaker 1: Dell nudist ranch. This is near Redlands. They now say
Speaker 1: that there has been an arrest in the case. A
Speaker 1: neighbor of this couple Dan and Stephanie. They believe that
Speaker 1: the bodies are in his home. They're going to bring
Speaker 1: in canines and search crews today to go through his
Speaker 1: home or compound or whatever. The fact that they believe
Speaker 1: the bodies are in his home but not have not
Speaker 1: found them yet leads me to believe that it's a
Speaker 1: sprawling property. So we'll get the latest on that. Leila
Speaker 1: Mohammed is in today and we were talking about Kamala
Speaker 1: Harrison the interview and you said something, Leila before the break,
Speaker 1: you said, do you think that we look for body
Speaker 1: language and we're hyper focused to see how people are
Speaker 1: coming off because of what we do. And I think
Speaker 1: that the reason that I do that, especially when a
Speaker 1: politician is being interviewed, is because we don't know who
Speaker 1: these people are. Yeah, you never will fully know, No,
Speaker 1: you don't. So you have to read the cues because
Speaker 1: they're saying whatever is advantageous to them in their career, right,
Speaker 1: or what they want you to think that they believe.
Speaker 1: So you have to kind of pick up on those
Speaker 1: nonverbal cues to get a sense of who they are.
Speaker 1: You also, before the break that she talked about the
Speaker 1: Biden phone call. This was the phone call when he
Speaker 1: told Kamala Harris that he was leaving the ticket.
Speaker 3: When he called you and said he was pulling out
Speaker 3: of the race, what was that like And.
Speaker 4: Did he offer to endorse you right away or did
Speaker 4: you ask for it?
Speaker 5: Was it was a Sunday, So here, I'll give you
Speaker 5: a little too much information.
Speaker 2: Go for it.
Speaker 4: There's no such thing as a vice president.
Speaker 5: My family was staying with us and including my baby nieces,
Speaker 5: and we had just had pancakes and you know, Auntie,
Speaker 5: can I have more bacon?
Speaker 1: Yes, I'll make you more bacon.
Speaker 5: And then we were gonna sit We were sitting down
Speaker 5: to do a puzzle and the phone rang and it
Speaker 5: was Joe Biden and he told me what he had
Speaker 5: decided to do. And I asked him, are you sure?
Speaker 5: And he said, yeah, yes, And that's how I learned
Speaker 5: about it.
Speaker 4: And what about the endorsement? Did you ask for it?
Speaker 5: And he was very clear that he was gonna support men.
Speaker 1: Again, this is all very much by design. Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: did not get to where she is by not being
Speaker 1: super focused and strategic when it comes to things that
Speaker 1: she says, or things or her positions or.
Speaker 5: What have you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, She has had issues in the past with misstepping
Speaker 1: and word salads, but the whole anti Can I have
Speaker 1: more bacon? I mean Trump made a big thing out
Speaker 1: of bacon at one of his rallies recently. You can't
Speaker 1: even buy bacon, like he's ever shopped for bacon. That
Speaker 1: was by design. She's sitting there going, look, look, I'm
Speaker 1: a childless woman, but I'm an antie and I make
Speaker 1: bacon and I buy and I do puzzles. My grandmother
Speaker 1: still loves a good puzzle. I do too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a long time. But when she said
Speaker 2: that was like, I should probably play a puzzle.
Speaker 1: Advertising, I was like, I should probably eat some more
Speaker 1: bac But that was all by design, and it was
Speaker 1: it was just very strategic. Yes, And the way that
Speaker 1: she softened when she mentioned the Biden phone call also
Speaker 1: by design. But I bought it. It worked. She also
Speaker 1: is appealing to Republicans. When she talked about wanting a
Speaker 1: Republican member of her cabinet, had a lot.
Speaker 4: Of Republican speakers at the convention. Will you appoint the
Speaker 4: Republican to your cabinet?
Speaker 5: Yes, I would, no one in particular mine. I we
Speaker 5: got sixty eight days to go with this election. So
Speaker 5: I'm not putting the car before the horse, but I would.
Speaker 5: I think I think it's really important. I have spent
Speaker 5: my career inviting diversity of opinion. I think it's important
Speaker 5: to have people at the table and when some of
Speaker 5: the most important decisions are being made that have different views,
Speaker 5: different experiences. And I think it would be to the
Speaker 5: benefit of the American public to have a member of
Speaker 5: my cabinet who was a Republican.
Speaker 1: Freshing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, if you're speaking about how you want to
Speaker 2: bring people together and that we need to all be
Speaker 2: on the same page for the betterment of our country.
Speaker 2: You know, politicians always give this speech somewhere along the
Speaker 2: way paraphrasing here, you got to put the action into play.
Speaker 1: So if you believe that, then put a Republican in
Speaker 1: the cabinet.
Speaker 2: I don't think that we're going to hear Donald Trump
Speaker 2: say that he'll put a Democrat in his cabinet.
Speaker 1: That's just not going to happen. No, And I mean
Speaker 1: that's what a lot of people have been talking about
Speaker 1: with the Project twenty twenty five situation of the organizers
Speaker 1: of that, the writers of that, and and Trump said,
Speaker 1: I have have nothing to do with it, but there's
Speaker 1: this shadow narrative that those are going to be his
Speaker 1: cabinet members, the people that put forth that agenda. Some
Speaker 1: of the conservative people are hitting hard on Tim Walls
Speaker 1: this morning. Tim Walls, by the way, he looked like
Speaker 1: Captain Phillips. What was he even doing there? I don't like,
Speaker 1: he didn't even he topic seven words and he was
Speaker 1: just sat there like a prisoner.
Speaker 2: Maybe that was strategic to just just show them as
Speaker 2: a united front, you know, yeah, But it just feel
Speaker 2: like sometimes he softens, maybe her in the areas that
Speaker 2: people don't really feel like. Maybe she's relatable in certain points.
Speaker 2: He's like the coach, the guy that we all know
Speaker 2: that kind of like the coach next door.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: This is just my take on it. Looking at it,
Speaker 2: like maybe his whole point was just to show a
Speaker 2: unit at front. He did not say much, but when
Speaker 2: he spoke about family, we can tell deeply that he
Speaker 2: loves his family and cares about his family.
Speaker 1: I think was a misstep and he's getting a lot
Speaker 1: of heat for it. Today. When he addressed the campaign
Speaker 1: materials that was talking about video that talking about guns
Speaker 1: and keeping guns out of schools and so you know,
Speaker 1: there's fewer school shootings and things like that. And he
Speaker 1: said that the weapons of war, the weapons I carried,
Speaker 1: should stay at war, and which he did not. He
Speaker 1: did not carry weapons of war, and Dana Bash pushed
Speaker 1: him on it. Cut seven, Tony.
Speaker 3: I want to ask you a question about how you've
Speaker 3: described your service in the National Guard. You said that
Speaker 3: you carried weapons in war, but you have never deployed
Speaker 3: actually in a war zone. A campaign official said that
Speaker 3: you misspoke, did you well?
Speaker 7: First of all, I'm incredibly proud I've done twenty four
Speaker 7: years of wearing the uniform of this country. Equally proud
Speaker 7: of my service in a public school classroom, whether it's
Speaker 7: Congress or the governor. My record speaks for itself, but
Speaker 7: I think people are coming to it to know me.
Speaker 7: I speak like they do, I speak candidly, I wear
Speaker 7: my emotions on my sleeves, and I speak especially passionately
Speaker 7: about our children being shot in schools and around guns.
Speaker 7: So I think people know me, they know who I am,
Speaker 7: they know where my heart is. And again, my record
Speaker 7: has been out there for over forty years to speak
Speaker 7: for itself.
Speaker 4: And the idea that you said that you were in war.
Speaker 4: Did you miss speak? As the campaign has said.
Speaker 7: I said we were talking about in this case, this
Speaker 7: was after school shooting the ideas of carrying these weapons
Speaker 7: of war and my wife the English could turn. My
Speaker 7: grammar's not always correct. But again, if it's not this,
Speaker 7: it's an attack on my children for showing love for me,
Speaker 7: or it's an attack on my dog, I'm not going
Speaker 7: to do that. And the one thing I'll never do
Speaker 7: is I'll never demean another member's service in any way.
Speaker 7: I never have, uh and I never will.
Speaker 1: I thought that was kind of dodgy of him, and
Speaker 1: then using the children and the dog and those I mean,
Speaker 1: come on, well he redirected again, That's that's part of
Speaker 1: the training. I just say, you screwed up. Just say
Speaker 1: I I I A said he misspoke, right, Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: not grammar. Grammar is not factual, heirs.
Speaker 2: Grammar is not that you are one per correct, and
Speaker 2: he misspoke. He should have just owned that and kept
Speaker 2: it moving.
Speaker 1: Did he did? He serve? Yes?
Speaker 2: And that's commendable, right it is. I mean, I'm you
Speaker 2: know how I feel about the military.
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely child.
Speaker 2: My dad also served twenty four years, so he served.
Speaker 2: It is what it is. He misspoke. He should own
Speaker 2: up to that. We're also splitting hairs of whether or
Speaker 2: not his wife had IVF or some other form of treatment.
Speaker 1: Personally, I don't care. I don't. I don't. It's just
Speaker 1: we have other bigger fish to frag Get the grocery
Speaker 1: prices down.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have a We have a lot of everyday
Speaker 2: things we need to worry about.
Speaker 1: Coming up next, speaking of the military, Arlington Gate continues. Now,
Speaker 1: we're hearing from a gold Star family that is not
Speaker 1: pleased with Trump's outing there and the altercation from one
Speaker 1: of the campaign's staff members and a cemetery employee. Will
Speaker 1: get into that when we return. Gary and Channon will continue.
Speaker 1: Leila is here and.
Speaker 6: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 6: Am six forty.
Speaker 1: Did you hear this horrible story out of New Jersey?
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. Columbus Blue Jackets hockey star Johnny Goodrow
Speaker 1: was killed in a bicycle accident last night in New Jersey,
Speaker 1: around his hometown. His brother was also killed in this accident.
Speaker 1: They were struck by a drunk driver in a jeep Cherokee.
Speaker 1: The two were set to be groomsmen in their sister
Speaker 1: Katie's wedding today.
Speaker 2: So Katie lost her brothers, yes, right in the family,
Speaker 2: not just Katie right, and then this is supposed to
Speaker 2: be the happiest day of her life.
Speaker 1: Is she going to even go find I was gonna say, no,
Speaker 1: you don't have the wedding, and then do you even
Speaker 1: have the wet Like, when do you recover from that
Speaker 1: and the guilt you would feel for them being because
Speaker 1: of it your wedding. I mean, it's horrible that these
Speaker 1: things happen, right, and they're horrible. The reason we're hearing
Speaker 1: about it is because he's a hockey star. But still
Speaker 1: it just rips your heart out when you hear things
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 2: Breaks my heart for that family. But yeah, how do
Speaker 2: you even do you postpone for a year or six months?
Speaker 1: I don't even know how. I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 1: There's no playbooks for that about that right now?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah. New survey shows the use of cannabis among young
Speaker 1: adults is at historically high levels. University of Michigan has
Speaker 1: released its annual study called Monitoring the Future at track
Speaker 1: substance use trends among adults in the country shows about
Speaker 1: forty two percent of adults ages nineteen to thirty or
Speaker 1: reported using cannabis, with about ten percent using it every day.
Speaker 1: For the first time. In the survey, more women reported
Speaker 1: using cannabis than men. Interesting, they're not drinking, they're just
Speaker 1: using the gummies and things.
Speaker 2: Maybe I think maybe the gummies. Did you hear about
Speaker 2: the American who's going to go marry the Norwegian king's
Speaker 2: eldest child.
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, the Princess Martha Louise is marrying this self
Speaker 2: professed shaman tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'd watch that movie. I'm like, are we gonna
Speaker 1: televise it? No, we're not. We don't care.
Speaker 2: But you know when Americans go go marry royalty, I
Speaker 2: get a little excited.
Speaker 1: It is fun. Huh, it's like a dream.
Speaker 2: It's like Megan took my life and didn't stay over
Speaker 2: there for our own reasons.
Speaker 1: It's fine, it's a fair tale y, But I just
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, are.
Speaker 2: There any eligible prince or king bachelor's left in this world?
Speaker 1: We could probably figure that out.
Speaker 2: Not one who's struggling or they don't really have like
Speaker 2: an empire or staff, Like, find me one who has
Speaker 2: the whole.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing with men.
Speaker 4: When they're raised.
Speaker 1: With money, they come with a whole set of issues,
Speaker 1: a sole set of problems. Most when you have a
Speaker 1: spoiled boy, he doesn't always translate to a stable man.
Speaker 1: I kind of keep that. They kind of keep that
Speaker 1: spoiled thing. All right. Now, I'm gonna get in trouble
Speaker 1: with men. Okay, whatever, it's fine. I have You're back.
Speaker 1: We're sitting here. We're two child with cat ladies. You're fine,
Speaker 1: We're fine. Okay. So, families of American service members who
Speaker 1: were killed during the withdrawal from Afghanistan have revealed that
Speaker 1: they did give approval for photos and videos to be
Speaker 1: taken at Arlington Cemetery on Monday. This is after a
Speaker 1: Green Beret service member. His family spoke out and said, hey,
Speaker 1: we didn't give permission for Trump to use our son's
Speaker 1: grave in the campaign materials. He died by suicide after
Speaker 1: eight tours. It's not okay. So now the families that
Speaker 1: did give permission are speaking up. But this is not
Speaker 1: going away. May This is stayed in the headlines that
Speaker 1: he went there. He was supposed to be honoring these
Speaker 1: service members, thirteen who were killed and he turned around
Speaker 1: and used it as campaign materials, which always leaves a
Speaker 1: bad taste in my mouth. It's like, if you're going
Speaker 1: to do something good, just go do the good thing.
Speaker 1: You don't have to like get credit for it or
Speaker 1: take a victory lap. Just go do the good thing.
Speaker 2: But I think the families who invited him, the three
Speaker 2: in particular, who I don't think they cared that that
Speaker 2: was part of a campaign thing because they wanted him
Speaker 2: there because he knew of their son's stories. But the
Speaker 2: other families who were saying like, hey, I didn't give
Speaker 2: you permission to you know, my son's grave was in
Speaker 2: the background, and that's part of your campaignents here. I
Speaker 2: understand where they're coming from too, But as a former
Speaker 2: president and one who's still running, you know, campaigns to
Speaker 2: be president again, you should just know that this that
Speaker 2: this is like sort of a sacred area, right like
Speaker 2: this is these are people who've served, who've lost their
Speaker 2: lives and representing and defending our country or maybe after that,
Speaker 2: and we just respect Arlington.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, the altercation or the alleged altercation from
Speaker 1: one of his staff members and somebody who worked at
Speaker 1: the cemetery, I don't care about that. I care about
Speaker 1: what the military families think. And as a voter, I
Speaker 1: care that you go do something for for just doing good,
Speaker 1: you know, and you don't you don't hoore it out.
Speaker 1: But that's what politicians do. That's what they do. Just
Speaker 1: they all do. Yeah, yeah, I don't know if they're all.
Speaker 1: Can I say that word on the radio? Can I
Speaker 1: say that? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I just said it twice. I come from the news backgrounds.
Speaker 2: I don't know my boundaries.
Speaker 1: The only rule is that I'm not allowed to say
Speaker 1: penis before eleven and I spoke that.
Speaker 2: We broke that rule, but only right. The contract was different. Okay, gotcha.
Speaker 2: So you say you don't think this is going away anytime.
Speaker 2: So now there are not gonna be any charges pressed
Speaker 2: about the shoving and the pushing.
Speaker 1: But because she said or the whoever, the person who
Speaker 1: works at the cemetery says that they were afraid of
Speaker 1: retribution from the Trump people. Oh yeah, I do remember that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we've got a good old fashioned terror in the skies,
Speaker 1: childless cat lady. Addition, also a guy who loses his temper.
Speaker 1: You're for lost your temper at an airline counter.
Speaker 2: I've allowed my last name is mohammed. Oh yeah, I

Speaker 2: Yea, look at your ba I'm not being funny, I'm
Speaker 2: dead serious.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know.
Speaker 2: Right after and listen right after nine to eleven, when everything,
Speaker 2: you know, the restrict the rules were tightened and the
Speaker 2: security measures were heightened.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, it is what it is.
Speaker 2: I get it. I was always selected. You've been pre
Speaker 2: selected for like the additional screen. But I travel on
Speaker 2: flying if now, like, I'm never selected for anything. I
Speaker 2: just go through you know, pre check whatever, global entry.
Speaker 2: Nobody bothers me now, but I would. I'm not a
Speaker 2: person who's going to act out on a plane or
Speaker 2: at a counter because I already know what it is, right,
Speaker 2: I won't be able.
Speaker 1: To fight yet. I've seen people, so I'm not that person.
Speaker 1: Yeah that's good. I've seen people lose their minds, like
Speaker 1: a toddler and a grocery store type tantrum.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't mind when the toddler does it well for
Speaker 2: like five seconds, but I do mind when it's a
Speaker 2: grown up. And now those videos bad look circulate people
Speaker 2: having meltdowns. What's the one recently the guy's yelling at
Speaker 2: the flight of the gate agent and she wouldn't let
Speaker 2: him on his flight because he got there, I guess
Speaker 2: be after the ten minute mark where they closed the gate,
Speaker 2: and he's like, he says something about her hair, like
Speaker 2: I think he liked her hair, sola whatever, and they're like,
Speaker 2: we want to see her hair. You know, we can't
Speaker 2: see her in the video. But it's like, what's happening.
Speaker 2: They're crying, They're melting down. It's affecting their jobs. It's
Speaker 2: you know, starting to boil your your son. Oh this
Speaker 2: is worth These These were all spoilt men. I've seen

Speaker 1: like sesame seeds or something. Well, and now all I
Speaker 1: smell is just my my garlic breath and it's not great.
Speaker 1: I can't smell it. But Eric did not warn you
Speaker 1: that it was scarlet.
Speaker 2: He says, Oh, there's cream, cheese and bag and I
Speaker 2: can't eat cheese right now, which makes me sad, or really.
Speaker 1: Bagels I've been having. I've been cutting back on my
Speaker 1: recreational cheese, just cheese for the sake of having cheese,
Speaker 1: and that's why I attacked that bagel and cream cheese.
Speaker 1: I think because I've been cutting it out.
Speaker 2: I'm doing no cheese for the next several I'm doing
Speaker 2: this this whole seventy five hard, playing with my sister,
Speaker 2: and we've seen some results.
Speaker 1: It's great.
Speaker 2: But I took dairy. You can kind of choose what
Speaker 2: you want to remove from your diet in addition to
Speaker 2: like you no alcohol and you know whatever, I'm doing
Speaker 2: no dairy as one of my things because I love
Speaker 2: I can sit down and watch a good movie with
Speaker 2: the plate of just random cheese, olives and crackers.
Speaker 1: And now wait, let me show you the cheese plate
Speaker 1: that I put down. You put grapes on there too.
Speaker 2: I love a little grape, my little homemade charcuti, a
Speaker 2: little grapes and cheese and olives.
Speaker 1: I was on the charter flight for the Chargers coming
Speaker 1: back from Dallas. Fancy you are, so, I'm so fancy.
Speaker 1: And this was my cheese plate that the flight at
Speaker 1: Tenant made. Do you like dinner? She's like string, Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: it's all the cheeses, Colby cheese. It's a pepper pepper cheet,
Speaker 1: string cheese, all the crackers. But she says, do you
Speaker 1: want We've got chicken strogan off, We've got a fish dish,
Speaker 1: We've got something else I forget, like carne a sot
Speaker 1: or something. And I was like, yeah, no, I'm good.
Speaker 1: And then she's like, do you want some cheese? And
Speaker 1: it's like I would love some cheese. So she brought
Speaker 1: me that massive plate of cheese. Anyway, okay, speaking of
Speaker 1: tear in the skuys, not just me and my cheese plate.
Speaker 1: Two airline passengers who locked a stranger's crying grandchild in
Speaker 1: a plain restroom have caused outrage in China. It is
Speaker 1: a heated online debate now on how to handle upset
Speaker 1: children in public spaces. This went viral after one of
Speaker 1: the two women involved posted a video on Chinese social media.
Speaker 1: It showed them inside a locked lavatory with this crying girl,
Speaker 1: who appeared to be about a year old. Woman sitting
Speaker 1: on the toilet tells the baby, we won't let you
Speaker 1: out until you stop crying.
Speaker 2: I don't think the baby understood. The child is very small,
Speaker 2: but they say that, you know.
Speaker 1: One of the flight.
Speaker 2: Attendants said, listen, this tantrum was so disruptive that passengers
Speaker 2: were using tissue to block their ears, while others had
Speaker 2: to move to the back of the plane to escape
Speaker 2: the noise.
Speaker 1: It was crying NonStop for three hours. Oh that's rough.
Speaker 2: And the child was traveling with grandparents versus you know,
Speaker 2: like mom and death. I wonder if there was also
Speaker 2: this separation anxiety. Listen, kids on a plane. That's already
Speaker 2: hard for a lot of children. Their ears are popping
Speaker 2: that I really know how to deal with the fact that,
Speaker 2: you know, we're change in elevation and it's it's weird.
Speaker 1: I get it.
Speaker 2: I'm under the school of thought that whatever helps them sleep,
Speaker 2: knock them out and let them sleep for the three hours.
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is racist, but I have
Speaker 1: a feeling that people in China don't play when it
Speaker 1: comes to disciplining their children. I think it's safe to
Speaker 1: say that, but you should. You started with I don't
Speaker 1: know if this is racist. I'm like, oh, lord, and
Speaker 1: then I kept going, I know that's awful. No, you know,
Speaker 1: like the tiger mom thing of just like expecting a
Speaker 1: lot out of your.
Speaker 2: Your children, or just community parenting, like we don't tolerate this.
Speaker 2: You know, back in the day when we were younger
Speaker 2: and a neighbor could reprimand you and then call your
Speaker 2: mom and say, hey, Shannon was over here doing this
Speaker 2: and I checked her about that, and I'm letting you
Speaker 2: know your child was doing this. That doesn't happen today.
Speaker 2: There's no community parenting, and maybe this is you know,
Speaker 2: still part of the culture. They can community parent say
Speaker 2: your child is out of order, the child is screaming
Speaker 2: NonStop for three hours, and now locking the kid in
Speaker 2: the bathroom.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know, I wouldn't do that. Why
Speaker 1: did community parenting go away? I don't just people getting
Speaker 1: to an insular or weird about raising.
Speaker 2: Their kids, don't know our neighbors anymore. Yeah, it's that
Speaker 2: we used to know. I mean, we knew our neighbors.
Speaker 2: We knew their parents, They knew my parents. We didn't
Speaker 2: have cell phones, they had each other's phone numbers. Somebody
Speaker 2: could walk you home to your mom and dad and
Speaker 2: say your child was acting out in my neighborhood and
Speaker 2: I'm bringing your kid home. And my parents weren't offended.
Speaker 2: They would didn't reprimand me too. We were allowed to
Speaker 2: be reprimanded by a neighbor's parents.
Speaker 1: My parents' neighbors for the most part, who were there
Speaker 1: when I grew up, have died and their kids live
Speaker 1: in the homes now for the most part. But when
Speaker 1: I was an adult, I remember feeling a little bit
Speaker 1: of shame when I saw some of them because I
Speaker 1: was a little hell raiser teenager that you know, drove
Speaker 1: too fast and the cul de sac and the whole bit,
Speaker 1: and they would just you know, sternly look at me,
Speaker 1: or they yell at me community parentings. And then when
Speaker 1: I became an adult and they were still alive, and
Speaker 1: I'd see them living my you know, walking with the
Speaker 1: lord life like I'm not a hell raiser anymore, but
Speaker 1: just feeling that embarrassment of they knew me when I
Speaker 1: was seventeen and awful. But yeah, it is. It is
Speaker 1: a weird thing. I missed those days. All right, good morning,
Speaker 1: thanks for stopping. Bye, we're live. Do you know who
Speaker 1: that is? That's the new president of the company. Come
Speaker 1: on in, it's our new boss. And they unlocked the door.
Speaker 1: Sometimes they allow me to fill in. Are you listening?
Speaker 1: Like a raise, I'll send.
Speaker 2: You my number, okay, just just but I'm part time,
Speaker 2: so you probably don't care.
Speaker 1: She's talking to like he's a rando in the hall,
Speaker 1: like we're on the air. We're on the air, Okay,
Speaker 1: you can I.
Speaker 2: Say this to you, though, I commend the fact that
Speaker 2: did you notice the parking garage is emptdse. Folks don't
Speaker 2: work around here, maybe like once a week. But the
Speaker 2: fact that you're.
Speaker 1: Here on a Friday before the holiday is just amazing.
Speaker 2: No, I'm serious, that's good to be here, right, but
Speaker 2: it's you, like, you don't have to be here.
Speaker 1: Why are you here? No, it's a holiday weekend. The
Speaker 1: captain's got to be on the ship.
Speaker 6: Two of this.
Speaker 2: No one else would would care. They'll just let the
Speaker 2: ship go down and they'll say, why don't y'all.
Speaker 1: Keep it afloat. Well, good to see you, nice to meet,
Speaker 1: don't fire me, nice.
Speaker 5: Doll.
Speaker 1: That's why I woke up this morning. That was great.
Speaker 1: It seems so cool. So he's just walking around waving,
Speaker 1: I know, and he's always here on days when nobody
Speaker 1: else is here. Well, no one care. Most days. I've
Speaker 1: seen some people once a week. Ever, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursdays,
Speaker 1: those are the strong days. Well, they stopped by for
Speaker 1: like two hours.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Oh, Chris Little comes in from about one to three.
Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna call anyone out, but nobody cares because
Speaker 1: they only want him to be here from one to three. Chris,
Speaker 1: Chris knows. I love him.
Speaker 2: He's kind of I've kind of saught it when it
Speaker 2: comes to Chris over the years.
Speaker 1: Had five years. I haven't too, I have two or
Speaker 1: I did. I did a long time ago. I softened.
Speaker 1: So there was a man trying to check in for
Speaker 1: his American Airlines flight to Miami. His ticket wasn't working,
Speaker 1: and an employee told him he and be able to
Speaker 1: board the flight. Video, of course, captures everything these days,
Speaker 1: so he can be seen going through his luggage, taking
Speaker 1: out a hammer and smashing computer screens on the counter
Speaker 1: at the airline, Sir, what did you think was going
Speaker 1: to happen?
Speaker 2: You're gonna be banned from the flight, the airline, everything else.
Speaker 2: My thing is, sometimes these these tantrums last too long.
Speaker 1: Well, a hammer is too far out of there.
Speaker 2: I've seen like fights in the airport on these videos
Speaker 2: online and never in person, thankfully, or people yelling and
Speaker 2: having these rants and it goes.
Speaker 1: On way too long.
Speaker 2: I'm like, how long does it take security to get
Speaker 2: here when you have cameras all over the airport everywhere
Speaker 2: but the bathroom, like you see everything in the airport,
Speaker 2: and it just goes on forever.
Speaker 1: It's true, all right? Coming up and next we will
Speaker 1: hook up with Michael Monks from KFI News. He is
Speaker 1: covering the Brianna cup for murder trial. This was the
Speaker 1: young girl who was working in the furniture store and
Speaker 1: because we have no law and order in La County,
Speaker 1: guy comes in and stabs her to death. It's heartbreaking
Speaker 1: listening to her parents. Yesterday Phil Schuman was playing some
Speaker 1: of that audio was really hard to get through. We'll
Speaker 1: get an update on where that trial's going when we
Speaker 1: come back to Gary and Shannon. You've been listening to
