Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to KFI
Speaker 1: A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
Speaker 1: demand on the iHeartRadio app. Elon Musk, of course, leaving
Speaker 1: the Trump administration after heading up Doze. Today's event is
Speaker 1: all about showing that there's no hard feelings there, that
Speaker 1: Elon is terrific. As the President wrote in his social
Speaker 1: post yesterday, let's get right into swamp watch.
Speaker 2: I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar,
Speaker 2: and when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops.
Speaker 3: Here we got the real problem is that our leaders
Speaker 3: are done.
Speaker 4: The other side never quits.
Speaker 2: So what I'm not going anywhere so that you.
Speaker 5: Train the squat, I can imagine what can be and
Speaker 5: be unburdened by what has been.
Speaker 6: You know, Americans have always been going at President.
Speaker 7: They're not stupid.
Speaker 8: A political flunder is when a politician actually tells.
Speaker 6: The truth whether people voted for you.
Speaker 8: With not swamp watch, they're all counting on President Trump.
Speaker 8: Sitting at the resolute desk.
Speaker 1: There a TV jacket, red and white striped tie. Elon
Speaker 1: Musk standing by black blazer, black T shirt black hat,
Speaker 1: but the T shirt has the Godfather, you know it
Speaker 1: the font the Godfather, but his T shirt with the
Speaker 1: white lettering says the Doge Father.
Speaker 8: He's also wearing an all black hat like you said,
Speaker 8: that says the word Doge on it. The President has
Speaker 8: been speaking of Elon Musk and it's his work with
Speaker 8: the Department of Government Efficiency and talking about a lot
Speaker 8: of the things that he says the Doge is responsible
Speaker 8: for cutting the fraud and the waist and the abuse
Speaker 8: and just you know, pouring these accolades out for Elon Musk.
Speaker 1: You all the late night jokes about him being the
Speaker 1: Doge Father, just like he's the father to all of
Speaker 1: those other kids.
Speaker 4: He started and then left.
Speaker 6: Real quick, let's listen into what the President said.
Speaker 7: We're doing really well where we came.
Speaker 3: When I left, we had no wars, we had no problems,
Speaker 3: we defeated Isis, we rebuilt our military, and we had
Speaker 3: no inflation. And when I came back, we had a
Speaker 3: lot of inflation. We had wars all over the place.
Speaker 3: We had the embarrassment in Afghanistan where we gave up
Speaker 3: billions and billions of dollars of military equipment. The most
Speaker 3: embarrassing moment in the history of our country. I believe,
Speaker 3: I believe that strongly. We have Russia with Ukraine. We
Speaker 3: had the attack in Israel in October, the horrible attack
Speaker 3: October seventh, horrible, horrible attack.
Speaker 7: Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
Speaker 3: And now we have something where we're really healing a
Speaker 3: lot of that.
Speaker 7: We stopped India and Pakistan from fighting.
Speaker 3: I believe that could have turned out into a nuclear disaster,
Speaker 3: and I want to thank the leaders of India, the
Speaker 3: leaders of.
Speaker 7: Pakistan, and I want to thank my people. Also.
Speaker 3: We talked trade and we said we can't trade with
Speaker 3: people that are shooting at each other and potentially using
Speaker 3: nuclear weapons. And they're great leaders in those countries, and
Speaker 3: they understood and they.
Speaker 7: Agreed, and that all stopped.
Speaker 3: And we're stopping others from fighting also because ultimately we
Speaker 3: can fight better than anybody.
Speaker 7: We have the greatest military in the world. We have
Speaker 7: the greatest leaders in the world.
Speaker 3: We put one of them in charge of the Joint
Speaker 3: chiefs of Staff, as you know, General Raisin Kan and
Speaker 3: we wiped out Iis, completely wiped out Isis in three weeks.
Speaker 3: They said it would take five years, and we did
Speaker 3: it in three weeks, and that's the way it is.
Speaker 3: But we don't want to have to use our military.
Speaker 3: We want to be peace through strength when we can,
Speaker 3: and that's the way we're going to have it.
Speaker 7: So I just want to thank Elon and all of
Speaker 7: his people.
Speaker 3: Most of those people are staying, almost all of them
Speaker 3: are staying, and they're going to be with us, and
Speaker 3: you're going to see the results coming long into the future.
Speaker 3: Even a year and two years later, you're going to
Speaker 3: see a lot of the results and those hundreds of
Speaker 3: billions of dollars they're going to be adding up and
Speaker 3: they're going to continue to add. It'll be interest. It's
Speaker 3: really interesting to see what the final number is going
Speaker 3: to be. But again, Elon gave an incredible service. Nobody
Speaker 3: like him, and he had to go through the slings
Speaker 3: and the arrows, which is a shame because he's an
Speaker 3: incredible patriot. The good news is that ninety of the
Speaker 3: country knows that and they appreciate it, and they really
Speaker 3: appreciate what he did. And I gave him a little
Speaker 3: special something we have here, a very special that I
Speaker 3: gave to very special people.
Speaker 1: I have given it to give it to It's a key.
Speaker 4: It's our country. It's like a key to the country.
Speaker 4: It's like a key to the city.
Speaker 9: But piece the luck of this is amazing.
Speaker 7: Large luck.
Speaker 9: Well, let me say it perhaps a few words, that
Speaker 9: this is not the end of dose but really the beginning.
Speaker 9: My time as a Special governmpline necessarily had to end.
Speaker 9: It was a limited time thing. It's one hundred and
Speaker 9: thirty four days, I believe, which ends in a few days,
Speaker 9: so so that you know it comes with a time
Speaker 9: of it. But the Dog Team will only grow stronger
Speaker 9: over time. The Doge influence will only grow stronger. It's
Speaker 9: i'd like to to sort of of Buddhism. It's like
Speaker 9: a way of life. So it is permeating throughout the government,
Speaker 9: and I'm confident that over time we'll see a trillion
Speaker 9: dollars of savings and a trillion dollars of waste and
Speaker 9: poor production. The calculations of the Dose Dose Team thus
Speaker 9: far in terms of an FI twenty five to FI
Speaker 9: twenty six delta, are over one hundred and sixty billion,
Speaker 9: and that's climbing. We expect that that number will probably
Speaker 9: go over two hundred billion soon. So I think the
Speaker 9: Dose Team is doing an incredible job. They're going to
Speaker 9: continue doing doing an incredible job. And and I'll be
Speaker 9: and I'll continue to to be visiting here and be
Speaker 9: a friend and advisor to the president. And I look
Speaker 9: forward to, you know, times being back in this amazing room.
Speaker 9: By the way, isn't this incredible? This incredible that.
Speaker 6: The office it's done.
Speaker 9: I think the way that the Oval Office, the President
Speaker 9: has just.
Speaker 8: Completely commenting on the interior decorations.
Speaker 7: And it's been there a long time. That was plaster.
Speaker 7: Nobody ever really saw it. You didn't know the ego
Speaker 7: was up there, and we highlighted.
Speaker 4: It's cameras are panning you guys, twenty.
Speaker 7: Four goal and everybody loved it. And now they all
Speaker 7: see it when they come in.
Speaker 4: That is beautiful. Good why you cover?
Speaker 9: You know, finally has the majesty that it deserves. Thanks
Speaker 9: to the President.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, did you get any.
Speaker 2: President?
Speaker 9: Continuing to support those team and uh and we're relentlessly
Speaker 9: pursuing eight trillion dollars in wasting for productions which will
Speaker 9: benefit the American.
Speaker 1: All right, well, I'm not gonna lie. Like the Oval
Speaker 1: Office does look better than it has ever. I mean,
Speaker 1: like the flags behind him in the Space Force Flag edition.
Speaker 1: It's really pretty colors, the flags and the way they're presented there.
Speaker 1: It does look really nice.
Speaker 6: They are starting to take questions. You want to come
Speaker 6: back and do this? Yeah, let's see that. I'll be
Speaker 6: recording this again.
Speaker 8: President Trump is sort of doing an official oval office
Speaker 8: goodbye and to thank you to Elon Musk.
Speaker 1: You think we could buy one of those Space Force
Speaker 1: flags and put it up around here somewhere.
Speaker 6: Sure, I'd love.
Speaker 4: To do that, you know, all right?
Speaker 6: It seems very.
Speaker 1: Whole paneply of flags would be nice. A backdrop of
Speaker 1: the show seems kind of to support.
Speaker 4: America knee jerk, but is it?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Would some gold look nice on the ceiling?
Speaker 6: I say yes, it.
Speaker 8: Would up the paneling fire panel? All right, Gary Channon
Speaker 8: will continue in just a moment.
Speaker 2: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 2: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: I started watching the Sex and the City spin off,
Speaker 1: and just like that, and just like that, I was
Speaker 1: super grossed out by the phone sex scene. It was
Speaker 1: so uncomfortable. If you watched it, you know what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about.
Speaker 6: Rosie O'Donnell apparently has a sex scene in the.
Speaker 4: Show also wildly uncomfortable.
Speaker 1: Now, this is a show that's always pushed the envelope
Speaker 1: when it comes to sex, thus the name.
Speaker 4: But see, now it's just getting weird. It's just getting weir.
Speaker 1: And I know we're all going to be in our
Speaker 1: fifties and sixties and seventies, and you know, it's not
Speaker 1: like you're dead, you know, but it's not like.
Speaker 4: You're dad, my god. Awkward.
Speaker 8: We have been listening into this White House news conference,
Speaker 8: if you want to call it that. President Trump is
Speaker 8: bidding Elon Musk adieu as he is leaving his special
Speaker 8: government service that lasted one hundred and thirty I think
Speaker 8: he said one hundred and thirty four days. And he's
Speaker 8: been asked about the cuts that the Department of Government
Speaker 8: Efficiency DOGE has been able to make over the last
Speaker 8: couple of months and what it looks forward to in
Speaker 8: the next couple of months and years in terms of
Speaker 8: overall savings.
Speaker 9: I think so we're on.
Speaker 7: Track to do so.
Speaker 4: Do you thieve that, Congress.
Speaker 7: You thank you, mister President.
Speaker 10: You had mentioned earlier in the week that Doe should
Speaker 10: become a whipping boy, and as the President mentioned, you
Speaker 10: went through a lot to go through this process.
Speaker 7: Was it worth it for you and what would you change?
Speaker 9: Yes, So what we thought was happening was that if
Speaker 9: there were any cuts anywhere, the people would assume that
Speaker 9: was done by Doge. And so uh, we became like
Speaker 9: the essentially the dogeball unit, where if you know, any
Speaker 9: cut anywhere would would would be ascribed to Doge. You know,
Speaker 9: a friend of mine's daughter who's a law school of Doorgetown,
Speaker 9: thought that the dog had cut the Senate, you know,
Speaker 9: the internships for the legal.
Speaker 7: Internships for the Senate.
Speaker 9: And we have nothing to do with that. So if
Speaker 9: they haven't cut, not to do with us, just as
Speaker 9: an example. So uh, you know, it just became a
Speaker 9: bit ridiculous where anything in any cut anywhere was shados,
Speaker 9: including things that made no sense, and we would agree
Speaker 9: made no sense. So there are many things that are
Speaker 9: current in the government because it's it's the it's the
Speaker 9: banal evil of bureaucracy. It's sort of the the the
Speaker 9: the frankly largely largely uncaring nature of bureaucracy. It's, as
Speaker 9: the great Bolton Freeman said, money is spent most poorly
Speaker 9: when it is h someone else has caught money being
Speaker 9: spent on people you don't know.
Speaker 4: Amen.
Speaker 6: That's that's how the many is so true.
Speaker 9: And then you can't really even blame the individuals because
Speaker 9: the way the govern works is complaining minimization. So when
Speaker 9: you do try to when someone within the government tries
Speaker 9: to stop that money being spent, there's usually someone that complaints,
Speaker 9: and then their manager will say it's not worth the trouble,
Speaker 9: just pay it. Anyway, that happens.
Speaker 7: Over and over against.
Speaker 5: It.
Speaker 9: I think it was I think it's an important thing.
Speaker 9: I think it was a necessary thing, and I think
Speaker 9: we'll have a good effect in the future.
Speaker 7: Thank you for President Trump.
Speaker 1: Plane have no effect on the future there. I do
Speaker 1: agree with him in that regard. I also know that
Speaker 1: you can't come into government at that level and be
Speaker 1: an outsider and change anything about the way the government operates.
Speaker 6: But there's.
Speaker 1: Shriving a light on it. I think is very important
Speaker 1: and it may it may go somewhere.
Speaker 8: This is has been an issue I think that his group,
Speaker 8: his mentality, has had to deal with, which is we're
Speaker 8: trying to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, right, And they
Speaker 8: said that out loud, They've said it over and over again,
Speaker 8: and he pointed to several times when things were cut
Speaker 8: that were blamed on DOGE that had nothing to do
Speaker 8: with DOGE. The interviews that have been done with the
Speaker 8: team that makes up that Department of Government Efficiency, and
Speaker 8: the things that they have found, and the stuff that
Speaker 8: they have talked about is mind numbingly ordinary, or I
Speaker 8: should say mind numbingly obvious things that should be clamped
Speaker 8: down on when it comes to overspending by the government.
Speaker 8: The only hope I have is that each president from
Speaker 8: this point forward has something along these lines, has an
Speaker 8: agency that is specifically designed to continue to root out
Speaker 8: that kind.
Speaker 1: Of the president he just added more to the federal
Speaker 1: deficit with the Big Beautiful Bill. It's not politically advantageous
Speaker 1: to cut it is to say we're going to do this,
Speaker 1: and we're going to do that, and this and that
Speaker 1: all cost a lot of money, right.
Speaker 8: So even even setting up an agency to do that
Speaker 8: cost money. And I get that part of it, but
Speaker 8: there should be I would hope there is going forward
Speaker 8: an emphasis on that, an emphasis even with this bill
Speaker 8: it's in the Senate right now. There should be an
Speaker 8: emphasis on the unsustainability of the way our government works.
Speaker 8: And we've got to do something now to turn that
Speaker 8: oil tanker around before it hits the Titanic.
Speaker 1: I think the Titanic is already at the floor of
Speaker 1: the sea in terms of that, But I love the optimism.
Speaker 1: Speaking of that, former President Biden says he feels good
Speaker 1: and all the folks are very optimistic. He says related
Speaker 1: to his prostate cancer diagnosis, he spoke at an event
Speaker 1: in Delaware. So the expectation is he's going to be
Speaker 1: able to beat this.
Speaker 4: He said.
Speaker 1: He has started treatment. He joked that he has meant
Speaker 1: incompetent and can't walk.
Speaker 6: As it's not funny jokes anymore.
Speaker 4: I'm asked about.
Speaker 1: When asked about the Democrats, who are reportedly concerned about
Speaker 1: his run for a second term, he said, why didn't
Speaker 1: they run against me? Then I could have beaten them all?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 1: Coming up next, which decade is most critical.
Speaker 4: For your health?
Speaker 8: And somebody finds them, smell them smelves. Somebody here finds
Speaker 8: themselves direct try it again. Somebody here finds themsel smack
Speaker 8: in the middle of said decade.
Speaker 1: That was like that instant mentally incompetent Carimon exactly.
Speaker 8: That's fascinating how quick God was whirling over their words
Speaker 8: without being zapped in the head. I'll show you that's
Speaker 8: what God said.
Speaker 2: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 2: AM six forty.
Speaker 8: President Trump has been holding a news conference with Elon
Speaker 8: Musk and the Oval Office today. They're taking questions now.
Speaker 8: The questions have gone from Elon Musk specifically in his
Speaker 8: work with Doze, to the conflict that kind of appeared
Speaker 8: earlier this week. Elon Musk said he wasn't too happy
Speaker 8: with that big, beautiful, all encompassing bill that's been making
Speaker 8: its way through Congress. So they're talking about that right now.
Speaker 8: Is I told you yesterday about that glacier collapse that
Speaker 8: buried a small town in Switzerland. A natural stone quarry
Speaker 8: in West Java in Indonesia collapse. Several people who were
Speaker 8: working on it were killed. More than two dozen people
Speaker 8: trapped in the rubble when the mine collapsed. Rescuers were
Speaker 8: able to pull a dozen injured people from the debris
Speaker 8: during their search effort, but the search effort had to
Speaker 8: be suspended today because darkness fell and it will resume
Speaker 8: very early.
Speaker 1: I see your Indonesian tragedy and I raise you a
Speaker 1: Nigerian tragedy where torrents a pre dawn reign unleashed flooding
Speaker 1: that killed one hundred and eleven people in a market.
Speaker 1: This was in northern Nigeria where farmers will sell to
Speaker 1: people that come up from the south, traders, and it
Speaker 1: was very crowded as you can imagine, and they are
Speaker 1: expecting that death told to grow there. They won't say
Speaker 1: how much rain, but the flooding was just crazy in
Speaker 1: the morning hours.
Speaker 4: One hundred and eleven killed.
Speaker 6: We have a new spelling champ.
Speaker 8: I saw that Faizan Zaki sees the title of best
Speaker 8: speller at the Script's National Spelling Bok.
Speaker 6: Seen year old from Allan, Texas. Was the word the word.
Speaker 8: I don't even know how to pronounce the word it
Speaker 8: claaris it claricis meant.
Speaker 11: E c l I no eclaire e c l a
Speaker 11: I r yes e s s e.
Speaker 8: A claire cismant eclaire got that part ciss e m
Speaker 8: e nt interesting ceeis.
Speaker 5: E m e nt.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm an idiot and a padded room in
Speaker 1: burbank with you.
Speaker 6: I don't like that.
Speaker 8: There's a new study that suggests that there is a
Speaker 8: very important decade in all of our lives, and what
Speaker 8: we do to our bodies during that decade can greatly
Speaker 8: impact the rest of the quality of the rest of
Speaker 8: our lives.
Speaker 1: Yeah, things start taking a toll, don't they. You think
Speaker 1: you can get away with a lot, and you can
Speaker 1: until you can't.
Speaker 8: There is a very interesting I wish I could say this.
Speaker 8: I think we could probably all had some things we
Speaker 8: wish we could say to our younger selves. But the
Speaker 8: hangovers that you feel when you're twenty two are very
Speaker 8: different than the hangovers you feel at thirty two or
Speaker 8: forty two or fifty two.
Speaker 4: And there's a reason why.
Speaker 8: There's a real I mean, there comes a time in
Speaker 8: a boy's life when his body begins to change and
Speaker 8: it never stops.
Speaker 6: I mean, it just goes on and on and on.
Speaker 8: There is a study doctor Philip borg As, an oncologist
Speaker 8: with the National Health Service over in the UK and
Speaker 8: founder of the Longevity Doctor, which is a clinic that
Speaker 8: specializes in preventative medicine, and he says that it's our
Speaker 8: mid to late thirties when that unhealthy behavior bad diet, drinking, smoking, drugs,
Speaker 8: whatever it is, can actually show their impact much more
Speaker 8: so than anything else. And it was interesting because and
Speaker 8: there's a series of things like rates of lung cancer
Speaker 8: begin to rise steadily when you are forty. There is
Speaker 8: cancers which could have been avoided with lifestyle changes that
Speaker 8: start to show up now younger than ever before. And
Speaker 8: he specifically, this doctor Borg specifically talks about senescent damage
Speaker 8: to our cells builds up increasingly when we get to
Speaker 8: this age of thirty six plus. Sinescent cells are ones
Speaker 8: which have stopped dividing, but they're still active, and that
Speaker 8: creates an inflammatory environment which damages neighboring cells. And the
Speaker 8: more unhealthier lifestyle, the more those damaged cells will accumulate.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's accumulative, right, Like you're saying exactly what
Speaker 1: you're saying. And your body fails to metabolize things the
Speaker 1: way it used to, whether it be alcohol, sugar without
Speaker 1: the alcohol, fats, all the things. Your body just doesn't
Speaker 1: process that stuff the way it used to, which results
Speaker 1: in x amount.
Speaker 4: Of health issues.
Speaker 1: You know, if there's a reason why you see people
Speaker 1: getting older and they start eating healthier or whatever, or
Speaker 1: not eating as much or not drinking as much, and
Speaker 1: it's because you just can't your body starts pushing back
Speaker 1: too much like you no, no, no, no.
Speaker 6: You know it's funny because you the term you can't.
Speaker 8: You probably wouldn't even necessarily be able to describe the
Speaker 8: feeling of having too much of whatever it is, you know,
Speaker 8: a lack of activity, too much sugar, too much alcohol,
Speaker 8: too much of this, too much food, whatever. You probably
Speaker 8: can't even put a good clear finger on describing what
Speaker 8: that feeling is. But you know it, you know when
Speaker 8: you've had too much. The way that the doctor says
Speaker 8: we get over that is obviously we change you change
Speaker 8: action now because as your metabolic forgiveness begins.
Speaker 6: To wane, I think it's a great term.
Speaker 8: You still have the tremendous ability to course correct because
Speaker 8: even as your body does get older and all of
Speaker 8: the metabolism can slow down, you can fire that thing
Speaker 8: back up. You can reduce the inflammation that you've grown
Speaker 8: so accustomed to for so long. Talk about cutting alcohol
Speaker 8: consumption to a degree, best to stop smoking before thirty six.
Speaker 6: You did that, right, Yeah, accounts doctor says.
Speaker 1: When I see people who continue smoking into their forties,
Speaker 1: I think it's madness.
Speaker 6: Well, we talked about this.
Speaker 8: Oh what was it when some show Oh, it was
Speaker 8: your Friends and Neighbors, the television show with John Hamm. Yeah,
Speaker 8: and they run into some cocaine into their mid fifties.
Speaker 8: And I said, age out of cocaine.
Speaker 1: Felt physical pain watching that episode the other day.
Speaker 6: How their heart doesn't.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm watching this and I'm just watching that
Speaker 1: night progress. It didn't even look fun to me. It
Speaker 1: looked painful.
Speaker 8: But that's that thing where you know your body knows
Speaker 8: that's not the feeling I want to have. That's no
Speaker 8: whatever fun went with that in the in your early
Speaker 8: twenties only comes with pain and discomfort and agitation, and.
Speaker 6: Fitness is on the agenda.
Speaker 8: They say you should aim to hit the minimum target
Speaker 8: of about one hundred and fifty minutes of moderate intensity
Speaker 8: exercise per week, as well as regular resistance training, strength
Speaker 8: strength training with weights, build up that bone density, prevent
Speaker 8: the muscle atrophy, and eat the real foods.
Speaker 1: To eat the real food that the processed foods are
Speaker 1: doing just as much as the cigarettes and the booze. Honestly,
Speaker 1: like it's it is not good eating eating real food,
Speaker 1: Like even if it was just you know, putting a
Speaker 1: piece of chicken in the grill pan.
Speaker 6: My wife. She is my wife. I live with her.
Speaker 6: She made hummus the other day.
Speaker 8: That's all, just made hummus because she was gonna buy
Speaker 8: it and looked at it and was like, I don't
Speaker 8: know if I need other Like it should just be
Speaker 8: your garbanzo beans, some olive oil, some garlic, and some taheini.
Speaker 8: That's it. It doesn't need all the you know, it
Speaker 8: should be a four ingredient food. Why can't we just
Speaker 8: make it to buy those ingredients and make it yourself.
Speaker 8: Sure it was fantastic. Yeah, I bet it tastes nice
Speaker 8: and fresh. How long did it take her to make that?
Speaker 4: Not long? I bet well?
Speaker 8: There was a She put it in the little food
Speaker 8: thing first, the little process, shiny, tiny little food processor,
Speaker 8: and she put too much in it.
Speaker 4: So we did a beer one.
Speaker 6: Yeah, what twenty minutes?
Speaker 4: Maybe that's fun. I should do that. I should try that.
Speaker 4: Debor do you make your own hummus?
Speaker 12: I think I did one time, and it doesn't sound
Speaker 12: like it went as well as Gary's wife's.
Speaker 6: We'll have to bring some in.
Speaker 4: I would love to try that.
Speaker 12: Hummus is one of my favorite things, and I agree
Speaker 12: you you really just need a.
Speaker 1: Just like yeah, the chickpeas, the tahini, garlic, olive oil, oil, lemon,
Speaker 1: maybe a little lot.
Speaker 8: Of yeah, yeah, yeah, you don't have to You don't
Speaker 8: have to mess with like the sun dried tomatoes or whatever,
Speaker 8: the special things that people are putting them in there.
Speaker 1: Or just buy hummus. That's a good start, honestly, which
Speaker 1: is what I do. What do you mean, Oh, if
Speaker 1: you're eating six cheeseburgers a day, you want to switch
Speaker 1: out one of those for some hummus?
Speaker 4: You can. You don't have not asking you to get
Speaker 4: into the food.
Speaker 8: Process or lemon meringue pie to a bowl of humbus.
Speaker 8: True that you could step down slowly understand that could
Speaker 8: be a lifestyle starts all all right, the paths we
Speaker 8: didn't take.
Speaker 6: We'll talk more about that when we come back.
Speaker 2: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 2: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: Kean, I heard you talking to Conway about this last night.
Speaker 4: What is the deal here?
Speaker 13: So I can't announce it because he's announcing it today
Speaker 13: at five thirty five? Okay, but what is public?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 4: What do we know?
Speaker 6: What is it?
Speaker 4: Is a trip? Somebody's going on a trip with him,
Speaker 4: or how does.
Speaker 13: It people are going to be able to go on
Speaker 13: a trip with Conway.
Speaker 1: Like a trip somewhere. Yeah, not just like to the
Speaker 1: Vond's and Burbank.
Speaker 6: No, okay, no, no, no.
Speaker 4: So so how did this come to be? Who came
Speaker 4: up with this idea?
Speaker 6: I think sales?
Speaker 4: Oh, I see, I see.
Speaker 1: So it's like when John Cobalt goes to Iceland into
Speaker 1: the urine pools and takes.
Speaker 4: People with him urine pools. Maybe they weren't urine pools.
Speaker 4: Maybe they were called something different. What were they called.
Speaker 8: The Showers of Golden Light or something like that.
Speaker 1: I don't know why I called them the urine pools though,
Speaker 1: that was odd. But I just remember John talking about
Speaker 1: going on a trip, and it sounded like when Elf
Speaker 1: goes to the North Pole and goes through the gun
Speaker 1: gum drop of Fairyland and then gumdrop for drop. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the forest, the candy cake forest, all of the stuff.
Speaker 1: That's what John sounded like talking about his trip. So
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear Conway. We don't know where
Speaker 1: it is, though, Hakeiana, No, is that going to be
Speaker 1: announced today at five point thirty?
Speaker 13: Well, I mean people know, but we can't. This is
Speaker 13: It's for Conway to tell everybody.
Speaker 4: I see else? Is it in this land? Is it
Speaker 4: in America?
Speaker 1: It's in a land, It's in a land in Tristing.
Speaker 1: You know what that sounds like? Well, I won't say it,
Speaker 1: but I have an idea. Do you want you jeopardy question? Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's do it, Okay, art and artists for twelve hundred
Speaker 1: dollars and artists you love art. I thought that was
Speaker 1: going to be a path that you almost took, the
Speaker 1: art gallery path. In eighteen eighty eight, this Dutch master
Speaker 1: painted fishing boats on the beach for his brother.
Speaker 6: Theo what is or who is Vincent ben?
Speaker 4: Go see? I didn't know that.
Speaker 8: I mean I got it right. What were the first
Speaker 8: like three words of that sentence?
Speaker 10: Dutch?
Speaker 4: Eighteen eighty eight? Yeah?
Speaker 6: How many Dutch are?
Speaker 4: How many Vans? Do I know? And that's true.
Speaker 8: We asked earlier, which path did you almost take but
Speaker 8: didn't or paths changed through no fault of your own,
Speaker 8: and your life completely different as a result of it.
Speaker 10: Hi, guys, my dad was really big on education, sent
Speaker 10: me to a college prep high school, and I was
Speaker 10: supposed to go to college and I was enrolled, but
Speaker 10: I didn't. I joined the military instead. After four years active,
Speaker 10: I got a job as a federal employee and did great,
Speaker 10: loved it, best thing I ever did.
Speaker 8: Good Good for you. Military is a strong choice for
Speaker 8: a lot of people.
Speaker 14: Hi, Gary, Hi Shannon calling from Bozeman, Montana.
Speaker 6: Hey, Colin Well.
Speaker 15: In my early.
Speaker 14: Twenties, I was bartending at Hennessy's in Dana Point, California,
Speaker 14: and one of my regulars she ended up being a
Speaker 14: madam and offered me a job and gave me a
Speaker 14: five thousand dollars check and took me about a week
Speaker 14: and I declined the offer and kept bartending.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean that kind of goes along with bartending, doesn't it.
Speaker 1: The sex and at Hennessy's. That's a double dose right there.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think a lot of people end up
Speaker 1: in sex work after a night at Hennessy's.
Speaker 16: Ibouked it.
Speaker 10: Many moons ago.
Speaker 16: I was going to college for business because I thought
Speaker 16: I was going to get into banking, and one day
Speaker 16: I won a radio station contest for two tickets to
Speaker 16: go see MCA Hammer on the party bus with the
Speaker 16: radio station and the Inland Empire. On the bus, I
Speaker 16: sat next to the promotion director who told me about
Speaker 16: his job. It invited me to become an intern, and
Speaker 16: from that day on I ended up during radio for
Speaker 16: twenty five years.
Speaker 1: Wow at an MC hammer. That's kind of how it happens.
Speaker 1: You kind of fall into those things, right.
Speaker 6: Hey, daring Shannon.
Speaker 15: I went into the Navy in eighty five after high school,
Speaker 15: got out in eighty nine honorably discharged. But looking back,
Speaker 15: I think I would have stayed in at least thirty years,
Speaker 15: if not forty years, and drew a really nice pension
Speaker 15: and traveled all over the world and have a lot
Speaker 15: more experience than what I did get for just four years.
Speaker 15: Could have done a lot of schooling and had them
Speaker 15: pick up the bill for everything.
Speaker 6: I had, faithful all would have been a good deal.
Speaker 5: Gary Shannon Courtney without a you from living in California,
Speaker 5: I think that moment for me was when I got
Speaker 5: a d in English and local community college here because
Speaker 5: I didn't attend the class, and I suddenly I think
Speaker 5: I'll join the Air Force. That changed my trajectory.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I love your shoe high, that'll do it.
Speaker 12: I was in college and I got engaged, and then
Speaker 12: I decided I really didn't want to do that, so
Speaker 12: I ran away and joined the Navy. So, yeah, my
Speaker 12: life took a much different path than I had anticipated.
Speaker 1: I think the military worth it, though we keep hearing
Speaker 1: the same kind of story involving the military. That is
Speaker 1: really one way to dramatically change the trajectory of your
Speaker 1: life by either staying in the military or getting or
Speaker 1: enlisting in the military, because it changes everything about your
Speaker 1: life like that.
Speaker 4: It gives you direction, a new direction.
Speaker 1: It's you know, I can't imagine that being a huge course.
Speaker 4: I don't want to say correction.
Speaker 6: Alteration, Yeah, alteration. There was one who called her.
Speaker 8: The left a message that the audio wasn't very good,
Speaker 8: so we didn't play it, but he said that right
Speaker 8: after September eleventh, he angrily joined the Marine Corps and
Speaker 8: as he's driving to his physical his girlfriend at the
Speaker 8: time called and said that she was pregnant. Yeah, and
Speaker 8: he turned around and went home. Wow, she did not
Speaker 8: join the Marine Corps. Wow, but you know, has a
Speaker 8: few kids and it is still married and all that sort.
Speaker 17: Of Shannon annoyed listener John checking in.
Speaker 6: Hey, annoyed John.
Speaker 10: When I moved.
Speaker 17: Back to California from New York. After fifteen years drinking
Speaker 17: myself sick and finally getting sober, I reconnected, not on purpose,
Speaker 17: but inadvertently got reconnected with my high school sweetheart, and
Speaker 17: I thought there was.
Speaker 10: A chance of us getting back together.
Speaker 17: She was married, so I passed on an electrical apprenticeship program.
Speaker 6: I don't know how it ended up.
Speaker 4: I hate it when we don't find out the ending.
Speaker 6: There's only so much time the story my path.
