Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
Speaker 1: AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: Did you know what beaver slang for?
Speaker 3: I did?
Speaker 2: You did? Oh?
Speaker 3: Okay, I did? I did.
Speaker 4: That's why I laughed like a twelve year old. Ah, yep,
Speaker 4: yeah hey. Edmundton Oilers took Game one of the Stanley
Speaker 4: Cup Finals with a four to three win in overtime
Speaker 4: last night against the Florida Panthers. There is nothing better
Speaker 4: in sports than Stanley Cup Finals games that go into overtime.
Speaker 3: There is nothing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I excitement. I agree, And if you're there in person, oh,
Speaker 1: I can't it. Can imagine hard to take it. And
Speaker 1: that's not even somebody who grew up watching hockey. I agree,
Speaker 1: or I wouldn't even know how to play. I know
Speaker 1: what icing is.
Speaker 3: Game two in the Stanley Cup Finals tomorrow night.
Speaker 4: NBA Finals start tonight Indiana Pacers in Oklahoma City against
Speaker 4: the thunder. The Red Sox came back to meet the
Speaker 4: Angels eleven to nine in Boston last night. Day off
Speaker 4: today before the Angels come home and host the Mariners tomorrow.
Speaker 4: Dodgers lost to the Mets again six to one yesterday.
Speaker 4: They have about a twelve to thirty first pitch today
Speaker 4: at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 1: Looks like we'll be meeting with China to settle this
Speaker 1: whole tariff mess. At least that's the word out of Washington.
Speaker 1: That's where we kick off swamp Watch.
Speaker 3: I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar.
Speaker 3: And when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing that lollipops.
Speaker 5: Here.
Speaker 6: We got the real problem is that our leaders are done.
Speaker 2: The other side never quits.
Speaker 7: So what I'm not going anywhere, so that now you
Speaker 7: train the squaw.
Speaker 3: I can imagine what can be and be unburdened by
Speaker 3: what has been.
Speaker 8: You know, Americans have always been gone at president, but
Speaker 8: they're not stupid.
Speaker 4: A political flunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 3: Whether people voted for you were not. Swamp watch, they're
Speaker 3: all counting on them.
Speaker 4: So this phone call that took place, the United States
Speaker 4: agreed to hold more trade talks in hopes of breaking
Speaker 4: this impasse over tariffs. President Trump took to truth social
Speaker 4: and explained the call. With the call with President she
Speaker 4: of China, He said, I just concluded a very good
Speaker 4: phone call with she discussing some of the intricacies of
Speaker 4: our recently made and agreed to trade deal. He said
Speaker 4: it resulted in a very positive conclusion for both sides.
Speaker 4: Said that they had resolved some issues surrounding the exports
Speaker 4: of rare earth minerals that China had recently stopped sending
Speaker 4: to the United States. He didn't get into the details
Speaker 4: about that.
Speaker 1: So the current tariff level on Chinese imports brought into
Speaker 1: the US is at least thirty percent. Now that's down
Speaker 1: from the one hundred and forty five percent that Trump
Speaker 1: imposed until they had that handshake agreement in Geneva last
Speaker 1: month led to that mutual stand down, remember where everything
Speaker 1: kind of calmed down a little bit, at least on Wall.
Speaker 2: Street that we could see.
Speaker 1: Saw China reduce its duties there on US imports down
Speaker 1: to ten percent from one hundred and twenty five percent.
Speaker 1: And then tensions heated back up again on Friday because
Speaker 1: Trump accused China of violating this understanding that they came
Speaker 1: to in Geneva, but no specifics, didn't really show the
Speaker 1: math there. So then China on Monday levied a similar
Speaker 1: accusation against Trump. So it's been kind of ratcheting up
Speaker 1: to this phone call. That again, both sides, as I
Speaker 1: said earlier, and what I believe is that both sides
Speaker 1: don't want to admit that they need each other. They're
Speaker 1: both trying to appear the strongest person in the room
Speaker 1: before their countries. It's very important for Trump and for
Speaker 1: Jijinping to appear to be the most powerful guy in
Speaker 1: the room when it comes to America and China. And
Speaker 1: so that's why you're seeing this delicate dance between the two.
Speaker 1: Who invited who to the phone call? Who set up
Speaker 1: the in person meeting that they're going to plan soon.
Speaker 1: All of this is very choreographed.
Speaker 4: And then that will extend too whatever you know, lieutenants
Speaker 4: are involved in this next round of talks, very high
Speaker 4: level trade representatives on our side and their side as well.
Speaker 3: But then where do they do it?
Speaker 4: Who gets to host it, who gets to claim credit
Speaker 4: for organizing it in the first place.
Speaker 1: Trump publicly chastise elon muss again today. Of course, this
Speaker 1: is on the heels of Musk publicly going after the
Speaker 1: legislative agenda in Washington of Trump and the Republicans, the
Speaker 1: President was with the German Chancellor, as we mentioned, Frederick
Speaker 1: Murrs at the White House today and Trump said during
Speaker 1: this meeting that he was surprised and disappointed by Musk's attacks.
Speaker 7: I've always liked Elon and as ours, very surprised.
Speaker 9: You saw the.
Speaker 7: Words he had for me, the words, and yes.
Speaker 3: I said anything about me that's bad.
Speaker 9: I'd rather have him criticized me than the bill, because
Speaker 9: the bill is incredible.
Speaker 4: Never said it. Listen to what Elon must wrote on
Speaker 4: X today. Without me, Trump would have lost the election,
Speaker 4: Dems would control the House, and the Republicans would be
Speaker 4: fifty one to forty nine in the Senate.
Speaker 3: Such ingratitude.
Speaker 1: WHOA that sounds like Trump now start to finish even better.
Speaker 3: Elon Musk is using the Trump.
Speaker 4: Style, the style of writing where he's using not just
Speaker 4: the the sentence fragments to describe your feelings caps. He wrote,
Speaker 4: whatever keep the EV solar incentive cuts in the bill
Speaker 4: even though no oil and gas substitute or subsidies are touched. Parentheses,
Speaker 4: very unfair exclamation point, but ditch the mountain of disgusting
Speaker 4: pork in the bill.
Speaker 3: Some of those words are capitalized like.
Speaker 4: He's even using the specific social media style that Donald
Speaker 4: Trump has.
Speaker 1: Has been using fascinating go right after him wow, and
Speaker 1: I love his classic I Will unveil myself as a
Speaker 1: fifty three year old whatever right, very popular in the
Speaker 1: early nineties.
Speaker 4: Musk also denied Trump's claim that he knew the inner
Speaker 4: workings of the bill better than anybody.
Speaker 3: He wrote false.
Speaker 4: This bill was never shown to me even once, and
Speaker 4: was passed in the dead of night, so fast that
Speaker 4: almost no one in Congress could even read it.
Speaker 1: The President said about Elon Musk, he hasn't said anything
Speaker 1: about bad about me personally, but I'm sure that will
Speaker 1: be next.
Speaker 2: What's going on there? This is all it's such juvenile,
Speaker 2: But we knew that this.
Speaker 4: No one can shine by a brighter than Trump in
Speaker 4: his circle. Once you start getting to a certain level,
Speaker 4: you become a target.
Speaker 1: But it seems like Musk is the one who broke
Speaker 1: this all up. And I don't know if Trump likes that.
Speaker 1: I think that he may miss him. I miss There's
Speaker 1: those things we don't know as well, not just all
Speaker 1: about the bill, is it.
Speaker 3: We do not know exactly what's going on with this bill.
Speaker 4: There are a couple headlines in different places that suggest
Speaker 4: that the One Big Beautiful Bill has technically stalled in
Speaker 4: the Senate, that there was a report that some members
Speaker 4: of the Senate have already Republican members that, if that is,
Speaker 4: have already already said that they would be voting no
Speaker 4: on it. Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, said that
Speaker 4: he was going to be speaking with Elon Musk by
Speaker 4: phone today in order to at the very least get
Speaker 4: him to tamp down his very public commentary on it.
Speaker 4: Mike Crapo, the Senate Finance Committee chair, had said that
Speaker 4: there are at least two likely no votes against the bill,
Speaker 4: which means there would just be one more defection and
Speaker 4: that would derail the whole thing. And they have a
Speaker 4: still still sticking to that July fourth deadline, self imposed deadline,
Speaker 4: but the July fourth deadline to get something past.
Speaker 2: Gary and Shannon. We'll continue.
Speaker 7: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 7: AM six forty.
Speaker 2: Just to put a bow on our swamp watch.
Speaker 1: About Ukraine and Russia, Trump did touch on that to
Speaker 1: get again today, I should say peace talks have stalled
Speaker 1: there and Trump said today it may be better to
Speaker 1: let Ukraine and Russia fight for a while before pulling
Speaker 1: them apart, so he's not really.
Speaker 3: Disturbed by the number of deaths in that conflict.
Speaker 4: Okay, we are following a fire that is burning up
Speaker 4: along I five through the Grapevine. It's called the Fort Fire.
Speaker 4: They say it's about two hundred and twenty acres. Started
Speaker 4: just before midnight last night, and there are some traffic
Speaker 4: impacts up and down I five through through the Grapevine area.
Speaker 4: At this point, there's a lot of smoke visible, et cetera.
Speaker 4: But for the most part, just fire truck in the
Speaker 4: area that you're going to see and probably will be
Speaker 4: a distraction for most people. We were talking earlier about
Speaker 4: crazy exes and the stories that everybody has about somebody
Speaker 4: in their past, and you know, the one instance perhaps
Speaker 4: that let you know that they are not necessarily stable
Speaker 4: when it comes to love and relationships.
Speaker 9: Good morning, crew. Just want to let you know one
Speaker 9: of my exes, she always used to tell me to
Speaker 9: send her a picture as soon as I got to
Speaker 9: her house, send her a picture. Wherever I went to
Speaker 9: a location such as a liquor store or Walmart, Target,
Speaker 9: you know, all those stores, I would have to send
Speaker 9: her a picture. With me being there at that time
Speaker 9: that I said, thank you for listening.
Speaker 2: So liquor store, huh, I love that.
Speaker 3: That was the first thing.
Speaker 1: I don't trust that you're doing something good like going
Speaker 1: to the liquor store.
Speaker 2: You better send me a picture.
Speaker 4: So obviously that person has the shoes with trust, right, trusting.
Speaker 2: You say what you're going to be where you say
Speaker 2: you are.
Speaker 4: If my wife had said something along those lines, if
Speaker 4: she had come to me and said something I wanted
Speaker 4: something about, like hey, prove that you're where you say
Speaker 4: you are, that would be a big problem, wouldn't it. Well,
Speaker 4: that indication that there's something wrong. There's well, she tracks
Speaker 4: you on your phone. She could if she wanted to. Yeah,
Speaker 4: well but it's not just she tracks you.
Speaker 1: You you're the family is on each other. Find my
Speaker 1: iPhone or whatever or whatever the tracking device is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, find my friends.
Speaker 1: I get crap from my girlfriends for not enabling my location,
Speaker 1: like why why isn't your location on? Why why do
Speaker 1: you need to know wright? And these are my girlfriends.
Speaker 1: It's like I'm creeped out by people that need to
Speaker 1: know where I am whatever, whatever, it's just if they
Speaker 1: need me feel like I'm in some sort of weird
Speaker 1: prison arrangement house arrests thing like why do you know
Speaker 1: you to know where I am all the time?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: And if they needed to know where you were, why
Speaker 3: couldn't they just call you?
Speaker 1: Is it like a worry thing, you know, like my
Speaker 1: mom will say call me when you land, to which
Speaker 1: the first thought I always have when everyone anyone says
Speaker 1: call me when you land. It's my thought is if
Speaker 1: there's a plane crash, you know, from Burbank to Oakland,
Speaker 1: you'll hear about it.
Speaker 10: You know.
Speaker 1: It's if there's a plane crash in New Deli. It
Speaker 1: may take a day or two for it to reach you,
Speaker 1: but if my plane goes down, you're gonna know about
Speaker 1: it right away pretty quickly, Like you worried that the
Speaker 1: plane's gonna go down. And when you get the text
Speaker 1: like I'm landed, is that like, oh okay, good, I haven't.
Speaker 3: Heard anything parents.
Speaker 1: You know, maybe it's a parent thing where no comfort
Speaker 1: thing but comfort thing, but it makes no logical sense.
Speaker 3: You're right, I don't know.
Speaker 6: I just raised Hi, Gary and Shannon. My crazy ex
Speaker 6: was my crazy ex husband had taken the kids to
Speaker 6: raging waters out in sandmus. One day he was mad
Speaker 6: at me for something I don't remember, but probably wasn't important, right,
Speaker 6: But AnyWho came home and couldn't help but to smell
Speaker 6: the stench of bleach. Wonder where the bleach was coming from.
Speaker 6: Walked into the bathroom, opened the shower door, and all
Speaker 6: my clothes were in their bleach.
Speaker 1: Whoa wait, I thought he took the kids to raging water.
Speaker 3: He did, That's what she said.
Speaker 2: But but who was bleached?
Speaker 4: He bleached the and then came home like brought the
Speaker 4: kids home and oh, I guess took her clothes and
Speaker 4: bleached him.
Speaker 3: That's not cool.
Speaker 1: There's somewhere in white, you know. After a labor day Gary.
Speaker 10: And Shannon, I had had enough emotionally, I felt no
Speaker 10: longer attached and broke off the relationship. Went to blow
Speaker 10: off some steam later that evening with some guy friends
Speaker 10: some girlfriends, and she was there stalking me, and later
Speaker 10: came home. My door was open, only to find that
Speaker 10: everything I'd ever given to her was in ashes on
Speaker 10: my bedspread, burning, and even my bedspread hadn't looked like
Speaker 10: it had caught in fire.
Speaker 1: Yeah, burning is a classic go to if you think
Speaker 1: you're going to get into a fight with your wife
Speaker 1: or girlfriend and then go have fun somewhere. You are
Speaker 1: sorely mistaken, Like that's the first mistake, spoken like a
Speaker 1: true saying person.
Speaker 8: Aagorian Shannon Carol for Morange County. I've got the craziest
Speaker 8: X story. It involves guns, shooting, oh, getting arrested, getting
Speaker 8: fired from your job, going to trial. But I'm afraid
Speaker 8: to say what it is because he was found not
Speaker 8: guilty technically no anyway, and so I don't want to
Speaker 8: get sued.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: That's the thing.
Speaker 1: It's like when we tell you someone in prison they've
Speaker 1: gone away for something really bad. Most people get away
Speaker 1: with stuff, and they get away with stuff time and
Speaker 1: time again.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's hard to go to jail, it really is.
Speaker 11: Hey Gary, Shannon David and Kentucky.
Speaker 3: Hey David.
Speaker 2: My mom her second marriage.
Speaker 12: She's married to.
Speaker 13: A guy who out of nowhere. One day he decided
Speaker 13: he thought he was Jesus. Tried to smother my sister
Speaker 13: with a pillow because he told my mom he could
Speaker 13: bring her back.
Speaker 3: Luckily, she caught him in town.
Speaker 1: His fine line between a relationship, a close relationship with
Speaker 1: God and believing your God as soon as that line
Speaker 1: gets blurry, the red flag shoots up.
Speaker 4: I thought it was interesting that he said it was
Speaker 4: a decision that the guy made. He decided that he
Speaker 4: was Jesus.
Speaker 2: Yes, also not how it.
Speaker 10: Works, Hi, Garynon.
Speaker 5: My crazy X story is.
Speaker 6: I had a boyfriend that while we were breaking up,
Speaker 6: she took me to a restaurant and he gave me
Speaker 6: his marksmanship metal that.
Speaker 5: He could in the coast Guard.
Speaker 2: Oh said it was the most important thing they ever had.
Speaker 7: You wanted me to have it.
Speaker 14: He also called me and then didn't hang up the
Speaker 14: phone in the days when the phone would not.
Speaker 3: Just kidding, Ah, that's always fun.
Speaker 4: Yeah, tell your current girlfriend you're a really good shot.
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit.
Speaker 1: I mean it's funny because you know, in a movie
Speaker 1: or in a book, when someone says I'm giving you
Speaker 1: this it's my most prized possession or whatever, it's so sweet,
Speaker 1: But in real life it's always a little like it
Speaker 1: seems a little manipulative or I don't know.
Speaker 15: I don't know how, I don't know what you would give.
Speaker 15: You would use your kid's baby teeth and give them
Speaker 15: my wife and she would immediately throw them away.
Speaker 2: Honey, I love you so much. This is my prize
Speaker 2: possession of these old baby teeth.
Speaker 4: Oh that's nice, Nintendo switch to out today, Mark Saltzman.
Speaker 2: It's like on.
Speaker 1: Love Hotel when that one guy falls in love with Luanne.
Speaker 1: You needn't fall in love. It was it was too
Speaker 1: quick for you to fall in love. You don't know
Speaker 1: this person, you know. It's like when you give somebody
Speaker 1: your most prized possession and I think he feels then,
Speaker 1: I think he wants to have sex with her, like
Speaker 1: most men feel when they won't say.
Speaker 3: They love you, telling.
Speaker 11: I don't.
Speaker 4: I've never been on the receiving end of those things.
Speaker 4: So of what men telling me they love me just
Speaker 4: so they can have sex with me?
Speaker 2: Oh, well, the day is young. We can remedy that
Speaker 2: real quick.
Speaker 3: Lunch, John Gary Shannon will continue.
Speaker 7: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 7: Am sixty.
Speaker 1: Well, we have talked about all the hype surrounding Nintendo
Speaker 1: switch to the pre orders, the people lining up today.
Speaker 1: Finally they have hit the shelves. It's where we start
Speaker 1: our tech talk.
Speaker 4: The machines are getting smarter.
Speaker 7: This is tech Talk brought to you by Skynet.
Speaker 2: Problem.
Speaker 1: Mark Saltzman Top of the Afternoon to you, sir, and
Speaker 1: are you a Nintendo Switch guy?
Speaker 7: I am.
Speaker 12: I have the new Nintendo Switch too in my grubby
Speaker 12: little hands. Yeah, it came out today. I was in
Speaker 12: New York yesterday and I saw when I was in
Speaker 12: the back of my uber, I saw all these people
Speaker 12: lining up outside of game stops and best Spuys and
Speaker 12: all that. So, yeah, it looks like it's still in demand.
Speaker 12: I mean, Nintendo's got that secret sauce. They just they
Speaker 12: know how to create a system that just gets everybody bonkers.
Speaker 12: I mean, it's the This is the successor to one
Speaker 12: of the best selling game consoles in the history of
Speaker 12: the industry. I think the original game Boy was the biggest,
Speaker 12: but yeah, so this is the successor. This is it's
Speaker 12: whatever whatever made the Nintendo Switch eight years ago, so
Speaker 12: sought after. They've improved everything, in my opinion. So a
Speaker 12: bigger screen. Oh, first of all, let's just take a
Speaker 12: step back. It's called the Nintendo Switch for those who
Speaker 12: don't know, because you can switch between a handheld console
Speaker 12: and one that you can dock and play on your
Speaker 12: big screen TV. You get the docking station in the box,
Speaker 12: so that's why I think it's the versatility is one
Speaker 12: of the reasons why it had become so popular eight
Speaker 12: years ago.
Speaker 4: Is there is that way mark to compare that to
Speaker 4: compare the computing power that's in a Nintendo switch to
Speaker 4: to what other consoles were in the past.
Speaker 12: So Nintendo tends to not play that game. And that's
Speaker 12: usually you know, PS five versus Xbox Series X, like,
Speaker 12: that's the they go for all that processing power that
Speaker 12: It is true that Nintendo has upped its game pun
Speaker 12: intended in terms of specs. So it's got twice the
Speaker 12: resolution for the screen. It's a better looking screen and
Speaker 12: a bigger screen. This is on the device itself. It's
Speaker 12: got spatial audio. Now, it's got a fast processor.
Speaker 3: They don't.
Speaker 12: They're kind of mom on the deets, like what exactly
Speaker 12: is the processor and how many hurts is it rendering
Speaker 12: images and all that, But that's not what Nintendo gamers
Speaker 12: tend to want.
Speaker 3: They do have twice the.
Speaker 12: Hurts or the response times and measured and hurts where
Speaker 12: it can. The higher the number, the smoother the gameplay is.
Speaker 12: So now it's at one hundred and twenty, which doubles
Speaker 12: the typical sixty frames per second rate that some consoles have.
Speaker 12: But Nintendo plays you know, they march by the beat
Speaker 12: of their own drum, and they don't care about what
Speaker 12: Xbox and PlayStation are doing. And they've got those exclusives
Speaker 12: like you know, those characters like Mario and Donkey Kong
Speaker 12: and Princess Peach and Link from the Zelda series. That's
Speaker 12: what they want.
Speaker 3: What they have at it, and they are playing.
Speaker 2: A bit of catch up.
Speaker 12: Here is is for the first time, I built in
Speaker 12: microphone so you can chat with people who you're playing
Speaker 12: with or against, not with you in person. This is
Speaker 12: something you've been able to do for years on Xbox
Speaker 12: and PlayStation, but Nintendo has this Jena se Qua. They
Speaker 12: make it really fun and and almost like a little
Speaker 12: wink and a nudge nudge, like when you pull up
Speaker 12: your friends pictures or icons on the Nintendo Switch too.
Speaker 12: You know, you can see at the bottom of the
Speaker 12: screen who's like what they're doing at that time, and
Speaker 12: then you can click and then immediately connect with them.
Speaker 12: So it's kind of fun, you know, playful, which is
Speaker 12: very much in line with Nintendo. The Joycon controllers on
Speaker 12: each side of the screen now magnetically affixed to the console.
Speaker 12: You don't have to like find I don't know if
Speaker 12: your listeners are going to know what I mean, but
Speaker 12: there's With the original Nintendo Switch, there were these little
Speaker 12: grooves that you had to perfectly align the the game
Speaker 12: pads in it and slide it in. So now it
Speaker 12: just magnetically attaches just across the board. They made it
Speaker 12: so much more fun. And yeah, whether you play with
Speaker 12: somebody beside you on the same device or on the
Speaker 12: same TV or online, I think they've hit a home.
Speaker 7: Run with this.
Speaker 4: I mean, time will tell, but Nintendo says they expect
Speaker 4: to sell fifteen million of these to even I think
Speaker 4: that's a conservative estimate.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I think with the tariffs and all that they
Speaker 12: were bracing for a higher price. But it's it's it
Speaker 12: is what they were expecting at four point fifty for
Speaker 12: the regular console and then five hundred if you want
Speaker 12: the game Nintendo. It's called Mario Kart Worlds, you know
Speaker 12: Mario Kart racing where you can throw bananas on the track.
Speaker 3: And all that.
Speaker 12: It's really fun they have. They made it open a
Speaker 12: little bit more open world, so you can even drive
Speaker 12: around and not particular you know, partake in a particular race,
Speaker 12: drive around with friends like in the desert, look for
Speaker 12: secrets and Easter eggs, and take pictures of one another
Speaker 12: within the game. So yeah, I think they've they've done
Speaker 12: a good job. But at the end of the day,
Speaker 12: it's the games that are the most important. So hopefully
Speaker 12: there will have it'll have a rich library of games.
Speaker 12: It's a little sparse to start, but there's some good
Speaker 12: ones coming and parents will like to know that the
Speaker 12: Nintendo Switch to plays all existing Nintendo's Witch games, whether
Speaker 12: it's a digital download or on a little card a
Speaker 12: little cartridge.
Speaker 4: This is a weird trivia thing that I that I
Speaker 4: knew about. Doug Bowser is the president of Nintendo America,
Speaker 4: and Bowser is King Koopa in the Mario series.
Speaker 2: Yeah, fascinating.
Speaker 12: So there was a clip of me on The Tonight
Speaker 12: Show last week where Jimmy, I don't know, I sent
Speaker 12: this to your producer, but I don't know.
Speaker 7: You don't have to play it.
Speaker 3: It's short, but.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, of course we will.
Speaker 12: So it's it's it's basically Jimmy Kimmel, right, not fallon.
Speaker 3: I always get those two.
Speaker 4: Well, it depends which one. It's Night Show Kimmel, that's Fallon.
Speaker 5: I had.
Speaker 3: Like, alike, I get it.
Speaker 12: Yeah, anyway, Jimmy, Fallon is making a joke about he's
Speaker 12: he's like kidditzing with the band's leader and says something
Speaker 12: about how the pope's name something about his name is
Speaker 12: like pizza or something. And then he said and then
Speaker 12: the band leader said, and I'm sorry, I forgot his
Speaker 12: name too, quest Love. He's thank you, he says, what
Speaker 12: what's next? You're going to tell me that the president
Speaker 12: of Nintendo of America's name is Doug Bowser because Bowser
Speaker 12: is of course a character.
Speaker 3: In the Nintendo world.
Speaker 12: And then you see a clip and then and then
Speaker 12: Fallon says, actually, take a look at this. And then
Speaker 12: you see me interviewing. I say, we're joined by Doug Bowser,
Speaker 12: and it is that is the name of the president
Speaker 12: of Nintendo of America. So it's a funny clip. So
Speaker 12: all my friends were texting me, going, dude, you're on
Speaker 12: the tonight show. I'm like, well, pretty really not really,
Speaker 12: but it's cool. It's funny. Yeah, that's funny clip.
Speaker 3: Great if they gave those individuals.
Speaker 12: From that, yeah, it wouldn't that be nice. That was
Speaker 12: a big setup for not a huge sort of punch now,
Speaker 12: And it was fun. It was fine, it was fun.
Speaker 3: You've been on The Tonight Show a whole lot more
Speaker 3: times than we have.
Speaker 12: I would love to see Gary, Gary and Shannon on
Speaker 12: the Tonight Show.
Speaker 2: I think that would be awesome.
Speaker 4: That makes one person, But it takes a journey of
Speaker 4: one thousand miles. Takes one person to make a thing.
Speaker 4: So the way switch to is four hundred and forty
Speaker 4: nine dollars. Uh, that is that seems kind of expensive
Speaker 4: for forty nine.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's inflation. I don't even know how much the
Speaker 12: original Nintendo switch was. I think maybe two ninety nine,
Speaker 12: going back, you know, eight years, so it's it's a markup.
Speaker 12: But PS five and xboxes are not cheap either, especially
Speaker 12: with what's going on with tariffs. So and some games
Speaker 12: are going to be expensive. I mean this has been
Speaker 12: online a lot of people buzzing about this that they
Speaker 12: could be as much as you know, eighty ninety dollars.
Speaker 12: We could see one hundred dollars games one day, you know.
Speaker 12: So times are changing. It's not it's not cheap to
Speaker 12: be a gamer these days.

Speaker 1: of these Nintendo switches that you would just be obsessed
Speaker 1: with it?
Speaker 4: I remember how, Yeah, because I remember playing I remember
Speaker 4: that games for a long time, right, and how I
Speaker 4: could go, I could go hours.
Speaker 2: There's different. There's a difference.
Speaker 1: So seeing a twelve year old boy play that, yeah,
Speaker 1: and seeing a fifty two year old boy play.
Speaker 2: That, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like, it's okay for the twelve year old, right, it's expected,
Speaker 1: it's expect even.
Speaker 2: The twenty six year old.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you could argue, sure, But when you get to
Speaker 1: be you know, middle aged, it's different, isn't it.
Speaker 3: I would love to see I don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe there's there's probably tons and tons of I probably
Speaker 1: know tons and tons of middle aged people that game
Speaker 1: all the time, and I just don't know about it.
Speaker 4: I would like there to be a consciousness. But the switch,
Speaker 4: you're out in public with it, right, you can be yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: I just.
Speaker 2: Want you to hide it, like if you spend you know,
Speaker 2: eighteen hours a day gaming. Cool. I enjoy yourself, but
Speaker 2: I don't know if I want to know about it?
Speaker 2: Do you? You're looking at me like you do.
Speaker 4: I want each individual person to be aware of what
Speaker 4: they're doing.
Speaker 3: That's what I would want.
Speaker 2: What do you mean aware of what they're doing?
Speaker 4: I mean there comes in awakening when you're like, wait
Speaker 4: a minute, what just happened to those last five and
Speaker 4: a half hours?
Speaker 3: Right? And I didn't even finish the level? Like whatever
Speaker 3: you were.
Speaker 1: Saying, Like, if you know, Okay, I'm gonna sit down
Speaker 1: and play for five hours, that's fine.
Speaker 2: But if you lose the day and I see.
Speaker 4: What and then just keep thinking about it? I mean
Speaker 4: it's literally an addiction for some people. Yeah, that would
Speaker 4: be That's not a good thing. And I mean even
Speaker 4: being aware of it isn't enough to change it.
Speaker 3: But it's wow. Sorry, great X.
Speaker 1: Stories and we come back there should do you should
Speaker 1: produce like an intervention show, but for gamers, no, that

Speaker 11: then she persisted that when I became a teacher, she
Speaker 11: applied for the job of teacher's assistant, and she got
Speaker 11: it not by me, but by the district. And she
Speaker 11: kept it up and ended up marrying her and she
