00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919
<v Speaker 1>This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI

2
00:00:03.080 --> 00:00:05.839
<v Speaker 1>AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand

3
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:07.320
<v Speaker 1>on the iHeartRadio app.

4
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Today is the eighty first anniversary of D Day. There

5
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:15.960
<v Speaker 2>was an interview I saw this morning with Staff Sergeant

6
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:21.480
<v Speaker 2>Jake Larson. Jake Larson enrolled in the Army when he

7
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:26.320
<v Speaker 2>was fifteen years old and was one of those guys

8
00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:29.399
<v Speaker 2>that stormed the beach. He was at Omaha Beach. He's

9
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:32.920
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and three years old. Is Jake Larson and

10
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:37.479
<v Speaker 2>is in France for the marking of the anniversary eighty

11
00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:40.200
<v Speaker 2>first anniversary of D Day.

12
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:43.960
<v Speaker 3>Only did I make it, but I made it to

13
00:00:44.240 --> 00:00:52.039
<v Speaker 3>six battles, six battles with elp a scrunch somebody upstairs love.

14
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.479
<v Speaker 2>Is for me fifteen when he lied about his age

15
00:00:55.479 --> 00:00:56.520
<v Speaker 2>to enroll in the Army.

16
00:00:56.799 --> 00:01:00.399
<v Speaker 1>I met a guy who twenty one years ago when

17
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:03.320
<v Speaker 1>we did a freedom flight when the World War Two

18
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:08.319
<v Speaker 1>Memorial was erected in DC. Finally, and it was two

19
00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:10.760
<v Speaker 1>thousand and four that we took a group of World

20
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:14.239
<v Speaker 1>War Two veterans from Sacramento to DC so they could

21
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:15.200
<v Speaker 1>see the memorial.

22
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:17.120
<v Speaker 4>And one of the men, he.

23
00:01:17.079 --> 00:01:20.159
<v Speaker 1>And his wife came and he was the youngest surviving

24
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.040
<v Speaker 1>member of the Batan Death March. He also enlisted when

25
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:28.920
<v Speaker 1>he was fifteen. Was seventeen when that happened. And you

26
00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:35.280
<v Speaker 1>just think about You think of a twenty five year

27
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:40.319
<v Speaker 1>old enlisting and it's wild. But to think of a

28
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:43.599
<v Speaker 1>fifteen year old saying, I'm going to put my life

29
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:46.560
<v Speaker 1>online for the country. I'm going to lie to do it.

30
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:50.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna lie to get in all the things. It's incredible.

31
00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:52.959
<v Speaker 1>And the many times the parents were supportive of it.

32
00:01:54.359 --> 00:01:56.959
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, I mean I would be.

33
00:01:57.120 --> 00:01:59.239
<v Speaker 1>I'd be so proud if my kid wanted to lie

34
00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:01.840
<v Speaker 1>about his age or her age to get into the military.

35
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:06.159
<v Speaker 2>It's a different world I saw. Obviously today there will

36
00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:11.919
<v Speaker 2>be commemorations. I mean in France, the graveyard, the American

37
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:15.159
<v Speaker 2>cemeteries that exist there on the coast of France are

38
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.120
<v Speaker 2>just somber places to begin with, and today obviously would

39
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:20.639
<v Speaker 2>be more somber. I see a lot of the black

40
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:24.400
<v Speaker 2>and white, the grainy images of storming the beach there,

41
00:02:25.080 --> 00:02:29.879
<v Speaker 2>and obviously for us, anybody who's under the age of ninety,

42
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:34.479
<v Speaker 2>probably the images that we have were all connected to

43
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:38.240
<v Speaker 2>saving Private Ryan or some other sort of you know,

44
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:40.639
<v Speaker 2>theatrical version of what had happened.

45
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:43.879
<v Speaker 4>God, when you go ahead, I was just gonna say.

46
00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:47.479
<v Speaker 2>And the images that we do have of that day,

47
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:51.719
<v Speaker 2>actual footage from that day is all very sanitized because

48
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:53.879
<v Speaker 2>it is black and white, because it is grainy. A

49
00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:56.840
<v Speaker 2>lot of people just they don't connect it necessarily with

50
00:02:56.919 --> 00:02:59.919
<v Speaker 2>real life. And ironically, I'm saying that saving Private Ryan

51
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 2>it is a more realistic version of it.

52
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:04.879
<v Speaker 1>Well, everyone who was there that saw saving Private Ryan say,

53
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>that's as close as it gets you bringing this up

54
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:16.719
<v Speaker 1>and the juxtaposition of this conversation with what's going on

55
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:17.680
<v Speaker 1>in Washington.

56
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:20.719
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, is it's intentional.

57
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean I did purpose because of how insane we

58
00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:28.719
<v Speaker 2>have become as a we have devolved.

59
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:34.520
<v Speaker 4>It's a great way. Ah my God.

60
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:39.360
<v Speaker 1>One of the headlines today was that Republican hold on

61
00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:41.039
<v Speaker 1>let me get it so I don't I don't screw

62
00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>it up here.

63
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:44.520
<v Speaker 4>It is, it's a quote.

64
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 1>I just hope it resolves quickly. And then GOP praise

65
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:51.639
<v Speaker 1>for peace in the Trump Musk War.

66
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:58.240
<v Speaker 2>What we're so doomed, what we are so dooming?

67
00:03:58.319 --> 00:03:59.080
<v Speaker 4>We are so doomed.

68
00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Now some people are claiming that this is like WWF.

69
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:06.000
<v Speaker 2>I saw today a headline that said, this is Trump's

70
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:06.879
<v Speaker 2>third divorce.

71
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:14.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, is it real? Is it as painful as a divorce?

72
00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:16.199
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

73
00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:20.480
<v Speaker 1>We sat here whenever this began and said that this

74
00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:22.600
<v Speaker 1>was how it was going to end. Now we didn't

75
00:04:22.600 --> 00:04:25.040
<v Speaker 1>know it was going to end this publicly, and this

76
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:27.959
<v Speaker 1>in such juvenile way.

77
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:30.959
<v Speaker 2>But I'm almost ashamed that we didn't see that part

78
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:31.199
<v Speaker 2>of it.

79
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:33.959
<v Speaker 5>You can't have two guys with the egos that big.

80
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:35.519
<v Speaker 5>We said that from go that one.

81
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:40.399
<v Speaker 2>You can't have two sons sun orbit each other without

82
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:43.120
<v Speaker 2>one destroying the other in some wild fashion.

83
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:44.839
<v Speaker 5>And I don't know who destroys who.

84
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, hopefully, like you said, that headline is begging

85
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:52.120
<v Speaker 2>for some sort of de new mal some you know, resolution,

86
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:55.800
<v Speaker 2>at least the lowering of the temperature, which it appears

87
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:59.480
<v Speaker 2>that's where we are today. But the weekend could hold

88
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:00.560
<v Speaker 2>all kinds stuff.

89
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:03.759
<v Speaker 1>I love all the French words being thrown around about

90
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:06.879
<v Speaker 1>a quieting of this Cold war, because these are the

91
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:09.439
<v Speaker 1>words used to describe the Cold War so many years ago.

92
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.600
<v Speaker 4>This is not a cold war, detM, This.

93
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:16.279
<v Speaker 1>Is not a cold war. This is a fiery, active,

94
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:20.920
<v Speaker 1>active breaking up with a crazy X. She's setting the

95
00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:24.560
<v Speaker 1>house on fire kind of war, if that's what you

96
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:28.839
<v Speaker 1>want to refer to it. As some people are claiming

97
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:35.920
<v Speaker 1>that this all began, well, this ending began when Trump

98
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:44.759
<v Speaker 1>decided to name the head of NASA with Sergio Gore, right,

99
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:49.759
<v Speaker 1>and that that was a bridge too far for Elon Musk.

100
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:55.480
<v Speaker 2>Well, Elon knows the value that SpaceX has had for NASA.

101
00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:59.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, NASA is a shell of its former self

102
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:04.199
<v Speaker 2>and the innovation that has taken place not just with SpaceX,

103
00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:09.519
<v Speaker 2>but you think of Jeff Bezos's Blue Horizon, whatever the

104
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:12.360
<v Speaker 2>hell they call it, and then Virgin and the idea of.

105
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:16.680
<v Speaker 5>Rejuvenating space track.

106
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:17.879
<v Speaker 4>But here's the problem.

107
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:21.720
<v Speaker 1>This is an achilles heel for Elon Musk right now.

108
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:24.879
<v Speaker 1>And we'll take a break because we're running up late now.

109
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:28.480
<v Speaker 1>But it's an achilles heel because SpaceX has become a

110
00:06:28.600 --> 00:06:32.079
<v Speaker 1>mess and Trump naming this leader of NASA who's one

111
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:36.279
<v Speaker 1>of Elon Musk's friends. It's so trumpion, isn't it. This

112
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:38.360
<v Speaker 1>is what Trump does. If you watch The Apprentice, he

113
00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:40.759
<v Speaker 1>likes to square off people against each other.

114
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:43.839
<v Speaker 4>Iron sharpening, iron some could call.

115
00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:46.360
<v Speaker 1>It, but he likes to square people off against each other,

116
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:47.720
<v Speaker 1>and that's what he did last week.

117
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:49.800
<v Speaker 4>We'll get into it when we come back.

118
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.480
<v Speaker 6>You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

119
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:55.879
<v Speaker 6>AM six forty.

120
00:06:57.399 --> 00:07:01.360
<v Speaker 1>Tons to get to Gavin Newsome has met privately with

121
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:05.399
<v Speaker 1>one of Trump's anointed Hollywood saviors, John Voyd. Tell you

122
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>about their meeting coming up in the next hour. Also,

123
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:13.240
<v Speaker 1>what our pizza economy tells us about the overall economy.

124
00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:15.120
<v Speaker 2>It is going to be a test of willpower here

125
00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:17.839
<v Speaker 2>because we're going to talk about pizza right before lunchtime.

126
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:19.639
<v Speaker 4>Willpower? What is that?

127
00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:24.120
<v Speaker 2>A huge milestone when it comes to La area of

128
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:27.920
<v Speaker 2>transit today, the long awaited opening and opening of the

129
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Lax Metro Transit Center station. It has a whiff of

130
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:35.680
<v Speaker 2>a high speed rail to it in that it's not

131
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:39.360
<v Speaker 2>actually getting you to Lax, it's getting you to a

132
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:44.480
<v Speaker 2>location near Lax and then you get on a bus

133
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:47.399
<v Speaker 2>and go to your terminal. Eventually you'll be able to

134
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:50.639
<v Speaker 2>get onto the Lax people mover system and get to

135
00:07:50.680 --> 00:07:51.240
<v Speaker 2>your terminal.

136
00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:52.600
<v Speaker 5>But that's down the road a little bit.

137
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:55.639
<v Speaker 4>We're talking about the big fight between Trump before.

138
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:56.600
<v Speaker 5>We get to that. I'm sorry, we had to do

139
00:07:56.639 --> 00:07:58.120
<v Speaker 5>one more thing, just a quick book keeping.

140
00:07:58.160 --> 00:07:59.879
<v Speaker 3>Hey, GARYU is shen and I was just wanting to

141
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:02.519
<v Speaker 3>Elmer was able to feel the ripple effectors.

142
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:04.920
<v Speaker 5>Of course, last night, Thank you have a good weekend. Yeah,

00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:12.879
<v Speaker 5>felt to it? Yeah.

147
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:16.519
<v Speaker 2>Carl on Twitter also just after eleven o'clock last night,

148
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:19.680
<v Speaker 2>wrote good night Gary, and I knew something was up.

149
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:21.879
<v Speaker 5>I fell Did you feel well?

150
00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:24.120
<v Speaker 2>I did this thing where I fell asleep pretty quickly,

151
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:25.160
<v Speaker 2>which is unusual for.

152
00:08:25.160 --> 00:08:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Me because in Elmer's embrace it's very comforting, super comforting.

153
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:32.559
<v Speaker 2>Right, Yeah, it's like being into the belly of a

154
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:34.200
<v Speaker 2>ton ton like That's how I was.

155
00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:38.519
<v Speaker 5>That's how comfortable I was. Yeah, shame on both of you.

156
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:41.679
<v Speaker 5>We just skywalker on that.

157
00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 2>It's actually Empire strikes back to be technical, but yes,

158
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:49.320
<v Speaker 2>remember Han Solo had to slice open that creature and

159
00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:51.600
<v Speaker 2>stuff Luke in there to keep it.

160
00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:53.519
<v Speaker 1>He was on the frozen planet and he was going

161
00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:54.240
<v Speaker 1>to freeze today.

162
00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:56.840
<v Speaker 4>That's a plot point.

163
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:57.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. Yeah.

164
00:08:57.639 --> 00:09:00.279
<v Speaker 2>And then they marketed sleeping bags that were shaped like

165
00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:01.440
<v Speaker 2>to awful.

166
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:04.000
<v Speaker 5>No, it's not. They did not, Amy King.

167
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:06.080
<v Speaker 2>You could look it up right, you could get an

168
00:09:06.120 --> 00:09:08.679
<v Speaker 2>adult sized sleeping bag that's shaped like a tontan.

169
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:11.759
<v Speaker 5>Are you inside me?

170
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.440
<v Speaker 2>I Am going to end this conversation simply because I

171
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:22.480
<v Speaker 2>feel it's probably safest for everyone woke up this morning.

172
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Every day, God reminds me at least once why I

173
00:09:27.639 --> 00:09:30.080
<v Speaker 1>woke up this morning and today.

174
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:31.600
<v Speaker 4>That is an early front runner.

175
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:35.799
<v Speaker 1>Okay, there sleeping bag you can get and on the

176
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:37.039
<v Speaker 1>inside when you open it.

177
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:37.759
<v Speaker 5>Up, it's guts.

178
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:41.799
<v Speaker 1>It does it shows the intestines and stuff that's awful.

179
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:44.639
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you if I was if I was eleven again,

180
00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:46.519
<v Speaker 2>I would have like six of those.

181
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:47.679
<v Speaker 4>There, one and forty nine.

182
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:55.000
<v Speaker 5>You don't enroll in the middle. I misspoke. Yeah, you're volunteering. Yes,

183
00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:57.200
<v Speaker 5>I apologize. That is not meant to be. It's just

184
00:09:57.240 --> 00:09:57.799
<v Speaker 5>a misspeak.

185
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:00.240
<v Speaker 1>Can we just go back to if I were an

186
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:03.000
<v Speaker 1>eleven year old, I would totally have one of those.

187
00:10:04.480 --> 00:10:08.360
<v Speaker 1>And then let's press rewind on the tape here and

188
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:12.120
<v Speaker 1>press play to where you said they have adult size

189
00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:15.480
<v Speaker 1>sleeping bags. To me, that is proof that as an

190
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:19.159
<v Speaker 1>adult you have gone on the fact finding mission. Can

191
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:22.240
<v Speaker 1>I get a ton ton sleeping bag? And you found

192
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:24.639
<v Speaker 1>the answer was a yes. So it's not if you

193
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:27.440
<v Speaker 1>were an eleven year old, it's I'm fifty two and

194
00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:28.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking about it.

195
00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:33.840
<v Speaker 2>I was thinking about getting it for my kids, for you.

196
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:38.080
<v Speaker 2>For my kids, I mean, not the adults. I would

197
00:10:38.120 --> 00:10:40.159
<v Speaker 2>get the I would get the appropriate size sleeping bag

198
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:40.840
<v Speaker 2>for my children.

199
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:43.759
<v Speaker 1>But as your daughter would love to sleep in a

200
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:47.279
<v Speaker 1>ton ton sleeping bag, I'm sure of that.

201
00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:50.919
<v Speaker 5>Should get it well. Also if she didn't have a

202
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:52.639
<v Speaker 5>choice in which sleeping bag she sleeps in.

203
00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:55.879
<v Speaker 2>If I'm the adult, just go to sleep, okay, even

204
00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:58.279
<v Speaker 2>if you're sleeping in the guts of a creature that.

205
00:10:58.279 --> 00:10:58.879
<v Speaker 5>You've never seen.

206
00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad to see. We are all still children at heart. Listen.

207
00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.360
<v Speaker 2>I feel like the table has been set by two

208
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:08.480
<v Speaker 2>of the most powerful men in the world like a child,

209
00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:10.399
<v Speaker 2>and no one's gonna there no repercussions.

210
00:11:10.759 --> 00:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>So a lot of people are doing the autopsy on

211
00:11:14.559 --> 00:11:19.639
<v Speaker 1>this relationship, and one of the major narratives is that

212
00:11:19.879 --> 00:11:25.399
<v Speaker 1>this began last weekend when President Trump unexpectedly withdrew Elon

213
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Musk's picked to lead NASA. One name quickly surfaced as

214
00:11:31.159 --> 00:11:34.480
<v Speaker 1>a major force behind this surprise decision, and that was

215
00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:40.559
<v Speaker 1>top White House aid Sergio Gore. Now, Trump acknowledged yesterday

216
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:47.120
<v Speaker 1>that canceling Jared Isaacman's NASA nomination had upset Elon Musk.

217
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:48.679
<v Speaker 4>Those two are very close.

218
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:52.480
<v Speaker 1>They said it was a factor among many that led

219
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:57.200
<v Speaker 1>to the falling out, and that it was Gore's management

220
00:11:57.320 --> 00:12:02.000
<v Speaker 1>of the White House Personnel Office that led to Trump

221
00:12:02.279 --> 00:12:05.759
<v Speaker 1>changing his mind when it came to picking Musks, guy

222
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:07.120
<v Speaker 1>or somebody else.

223
00:12:08.519 --> 00:12:12.320
<v Speaker 4>That Gore was undermining this nomination to.

224
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Settle a score with Musk, and that Gore kind of

225
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:20.879
<v Speaker 1>came out on top with Trump in this.

226
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:26.440
<v Speaker 2>This is an odd thing because, I mean, Isaacman had

227
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:29.639
<v Speaker 2>his nomination pulled by the President because of what they

228
00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:30.679
<v Speaker 2>said were prior.

229
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:33.039
<v Speaker 5>Prior associations.

230
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:37.759
<v Speaker 2>He had donated to several Democrats, and Gore was the

231
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:40.559
<v Speaker 2>one who gave the president the list of those donations

232
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:46.039
<v Speaker 2>and one of the reasons why why Trump pulled Isaacman's nomination.

233
00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:50.200
<v Speaker 2>But Gore was a form former deputy chief of staff

234
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:54.679
<v Speaker 2>to Senator Rand Paul and joined the Trump campaign and

235
00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:56.480
<v Speaker 2>has been associated with Trump since then.

236
00:12:57.159 --> 00:12:59.039
<v Speaker 5>That's a strange bedfellow as well.

237
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.360
<v Speaker 2>Rand Paul is one of right at least right now,

238
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.759
<v Speaker 2>one of the major speed bumps in the Senate over

239
00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:07.600
<v Speaker 2>this one big beautiful bill thing because he says it

240
00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:09.360
<v Speaker 2>adds too much spending to the deficit.

241
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Score is a gatekeeper. He is like the male Susie Wiles, powerful,

242
00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:20.080
<v Speaker 1>rarely crossed in Washington, influences who works in the administration.

243
00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:25.120
<v Speaker 1>These are the puppet masters behind these guys. Now in

244
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:31.960
<v Speaker 1>terms of SpaceX and Trump overriding Musk's decision when it

245
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:35.960
<v Speaker 1>comes to NASA, it's his Achilles Hill right now. Elon

246
00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:40.519
<v Speaker 1>Musk's SpaceX business has been a problem for all its

247
00:13:40.559 --> 00:13:43.399
<v Speaker 1>promises to set up colonies on Mars, it's having trouble

248
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:47.679
<v Speaker 1>with the basics. The ninth flight test of SpaceX's starship

249
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:52.759
<v Speaker 1>program just a few days ago saw that reusable booster

250
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:57.000
<v Speaker 1>exploding and then forty minutes later the rocket itself blowing up.

251
00:13:57.759 --> 00:13:59.159
<v Speaker 4>This wasn't the first failure.

252
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:03.519
<v Speaker 1>There are critics to Elon Musk, and the scientific community

253
00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:06.120
<v Speaker 1>will lock it is one of them saying that we're

254
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:08.039
<v Speaker 1>going to look back in this period of history and

255
00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:12.320
<v Speaker 1>realize that letting a billionaire's ego drive innovation rather as

256
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:15.720
<v Speaker 1>than as part of a collective effort was a grave mistake.

257
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.240
<v Speaker 1>A collective effort. You're thinking about Apollo Saturn five.

258
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:25.320
<v Speaker 4>All of that. So he's already kind of.

259
00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Waffling right now when it comes to respect in the

260
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:34.600
<v Speaker 1>scientific community with SpaceX and its failures and maybe pushing

261
00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:40.360
<v Speaker 1>through this idea of going to Mars. Allah Faranos right.

262
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:43.960
<v Speaker 1>To be an innovator, you've got to have the ego

263
00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:46.799
<v Speaker 1>of a monster, and you've got to believe that you

264
00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:49.440
<v Speaker 1>can do all the things that you believe you can

265
00:14:49.519 --> 00:14:55.399
<v Speaker 1>do to the nth degree. And now everyone's pulling back, going,

266
00:14:55.519 --> 00:14:59.200
<v Speaker 1>are we just believing along with him and we're missing

267
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:02.639
<v Speaker 1>doing some of the math we're not. There's a dues

268
00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:04.960
<v Speaker 1>gap a little bit here in terms of where we

269
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:08.879
<v Speaker 1>are concretely when it comes to innovation and getting us

270
00:15:08.919 --> 00:15:12.279
<v Speaker 1>to Mars. So that's already a sore point for Elon

271
00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Musk right now. So for Trump to override his decision

272
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.360
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to NASA is a big deal. It's

273
00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:18.279
<v Speaker 1>a personal thing.

274
00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:20.879
<v Speaker 5>Well, you knew that that was coming.

275
00:15:21.080 --> 00:15:24.879
<v Speaker 2>You knew that there would be some personal affront from

276
00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:26.879
<v Speaker 2>one one side or the other. And I don't think

277
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.799
<v Speaker 2>it's necessarily over We'll actually talk when we come back.

278
00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.240
<v Speaker 2>Trump did have a phone interview today with a prominent

279
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:37.600
<v Speaker 2>reporter for CNN and said, basically, he's not interested in

280
00:15:37.720 --> 00:15:38.600
<v Speaker 2>talking to Elon.

281
00:15:38.440 --> 00:15:40.159
<v Speaker 1>Right right, he says he's not ready to talk to him,

282
00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:42.480
<v Speaker 1>which is funny because that's very relationship, ye isn't it

283
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:45.639
<v Speaker 1>very real? Housewifey also white House aids it was a

284
00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:48.679
<v Speaker 1>frantic night last night for them figuring out how to

285
00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:50.360
<v Speaker 1>repair this. We'll talk about that as well.

286
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:55.320
<v Speaker 6>You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

287
00:15:55.559 --> 00:15:56.639
<v Speaker 6>AM six forty.

288
00:15:59.080 --> 00:16:03.039
<v Speaker 1>About story talking about Star Wars on there off the air.

289
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:05.960
<v Speaker 1>About Mark Hamill, well, I had pointed out that we

290
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:07.960
<v Speaker 1>just saw him on TV right because he's in the

291
00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:11.279
<v Speaker 1>new Stephen King movie, The Life of Chuck, which has

292
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.200
<v Speaker 1>said the best Stephen King movie ever brought to film.

293
00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:17.440
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, I was going into a deep dive on

294
00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:19.159
<v Speaker 1>Mark Hamill because you had mentioned he was in a

295
00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:22.720
<v Speaker 1>bad acci accident and ruined his face, and they were

296
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:26.240
<v Speaker 1>even thinking about using a different actor for Empire Strikes

297
00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:30.039
<v Speaker 1>Back and all of that, and I was looking at

298
00:16:30.879 --> 00:16:34.639
<v Speaker 1>how he got involved, and it's a fun story. Robert England,

299
00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the actor Freddy Krueger, was auditioning for a role in

300
00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:42.679
<v Speaker 1>Apocalypse Now. He walks across the hall to where auditions

301
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:46.840
<v Speaker 1>are taking place for George Lucas's Star Wars. He's bored

302
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:50.240
<v Speaker 1>killing time watching the auditions for a while, and he

303
00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:54.159
<v Speaker 1>realized that Mark Hamill, one of his best friends, he'd

304
00:16:54.240 --> 00:16:58.120
<v Speaker 1>be perfect for that Luke Skywalker role. So he told

305
00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:00.440
<v Speaker 1>his friend, Hey, you shot audition for this. Pretty good

306
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:04.519
<v Speaker 1>at it. So Freddy Krueger, that's a good background story

307
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:05.839
<v Speaker 1>played a major role in that.

308
00:17:07.119 --> 00:17:07.559
<v Speaker 4>How fun.

309
00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, we are talking about the big breakup between Trump

310
00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:13.720
<v Speaker 1>and Musk?

311
00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:14.960
<v Speaker 4>Is it all theater?

312
00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:18.160
<v Speaker 1>Is it? WWF wwe what have you?

313
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:19.480
<v Speaker 4>Is it real?

314
00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:23.440
<v Speaker 1>We thought it would be inevitable. Inevitable, but it has

315
00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:28.119
<v Speaker 1>come to a very public public break Yeah, I mean

316
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:31.559
<v Speaker 1>just the basics of it from yesterday. If you remember,

317
00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Elon Musk was the first one to go low, I

318
00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:37.319
<v Speaker 1>suppose because he said he dropped the big bomb, which

319
00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:40.400
<v Speaker 1>was that Trump's name shows up in the Epstein files.

320
00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:43.559
<v Speaker 2>Well, Trump came out and said he was crazy first.

321
00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:48.680
<v Speaker 2>In response to the Epstein thing. Trump then suggested, Hey,

322
00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:50.960
<v Speaker 2>one way we might say billions of dollars is by

323
00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:55.319
<v Speaker 2>ending all of our contracts with Elon Musk's companies. Trump

324
00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:59.319
<v Speaker 2>said he was a man who lost his mind. There

325
00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:02.960
<v Speaker 2>has been discussion from Steve Bannon, former Trump advisor, is

326
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:05.680
<v Speaker 2>now doing a podcast that SpaceX be seized by the

327
00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:09.759
<v Speaker 2>government and Elon Musk deported because he's probably an illegal alien.

328
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:12.440
<v Speaker 2>And then Elon Musk said, Okay, fine, then we're going

329
00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:15.200
<v Speaker 2>to dismantle the Dragon nine or the Falcon nine program

330
00:18:15.559 --> 00:18:18.839
<v Speaker 2>so that we can't shuttle astronauts and supplies back and

331
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:21.839
<v Speaker 2>forth to the International Space Station. He's pulled back from that,

332
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:24.720
<v Speaker 2>and now the New York Post is reporting Trump wants

333
00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:28.440
<v Speaker 2>to sell the red Tesla that he bought the day

334
00:18:29.200 --> 00:18:31.480
<v Speaker 2>the day that Elon Musk had those tesla's out in

335
00:18:31.559 --> 00:18:34.279
<v Speaker 2>the ellips out in front of the White House.

336
00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:38.319
<v Speaker 1>Who's gotten rid of a car because of a broken relationship.

337
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:42.920
<v Speaker 2>And then Kanye tweeted because everybody was waiting, bros, please

338
00:18:43.119 --> 00:18:45.240
<v Speaker 2>know we love you both so much.

339
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 1>That's how you know it was a bad relationship. If

340
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:50.759
<v Speaker 1>Kanye is in support of it, that's how you know.

341
00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:56.039
<v Speaker 1>So Trump did a brief interview last night with Politico.

342
00:18:56.720 --> 00:18:57.920
<v Speaker 4>They got a hold of him.

343
00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Apparently the backdrop is the White House aids were frantic.

344
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:05.799
<v Speaker 1>They're trying to figure out how to smooth over this breakup.

345
00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:09.279
<v Speaker 1>They're scheduling a call. They're trying to schedule a call

346
00:19:09.400 --> 00:19:13.480
<v Speaker 1>between the two camps. White House aids were last night. Now,

347
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:19.039
<v Speaker 1>Trump answers the phone from Politico and says, oh, it's okay, it's.

348
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:19.799
<v Speaker 4>Going very well.

349
00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:22.839
<v Speaker 1>It's never been done better. And then he starts talking

350
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:25.079
<v Speaker 1>about his ratings and he says, the numbers are through

351
00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:26.799
<v Speaker 1>the roof, the highest polls I've ever.

352
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:27.680
<v Speaker 5>Had, and I have to go.

353
00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:29.519
<v Speaker 4>It was that quick.

354
00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:33.119
<v Speaker 2>This is supposedly what he said to Dana Bash on

355
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:36.640
<v Speaker 2>CNN this morning. She was interviewed after her phone conversation

356
00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:37.680
<v Speaker 2>with the President today.

357
00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:41.519
<v Speaker 7>Well, he said that he's quote well, here's exactly what

358
00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:45.359
<v Speaker 7>he said. Quote, I'm not even thinking about Elon. He's

359
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:48.839
<v Speaker 7>got a problem. The poor guy's got a problem. He

360
00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:51.440
<v Speaker 7>said he won't be speaking to him for a while,

361
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:55.000
<v Speaker 7>but he said he wishes Elon Musk.

362
00:19:55.359 --> 00:19:58.960
<v Speaker 5>Well, is this the end of it or something that's

363
00:19:59.039 --> 00:19:59.960
<v Speaker 5>happened sax weekend?

364
00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:03.279
<v Speaker 1>No way, and don't take it off your Bengo card

365
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:08.559
<v Speaker 1>that there is a reunification. Well, because remember these guys

366
00:20:08.640 --> 00:20:11.960
<v Speaker 1>were in this relationship to make money, both of them, right,

367
00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:16.440
<v Speaker 1>So that is the genesis is if there is money

368
00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:19.480
<v Speaker 1>to be made, in the future, the love will come back,

369
00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:22.920
<v Speaker 1>and of course there's always money to be made. Or

370
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:25.519
<v Speaker 1>do they stay bitter enemies because Trump never can let

371
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:26.079
<v Speaker 1>anything go.

372
00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:28.279
<v Speaker 5>That I think is the biggest speed bump.

373
00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:31.319
<v Speaker 2>I do think Elon would be willing to go, hey, listen,

374
00:20:31.880 --> 00:20:36.079
<v Speaker 2>I disagree with you. There are things that I mean

375
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:40.200
<v Speaker 2>the NASA administrator nomination, that's one thing, right, There's also

376
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:45.480
<v Speaker 2>the dropping of the EV man or the EV tax

377
00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:47.480
<v Speaker 2>credits that exist that the way they want to do

378
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:50.599
<v Speaker 2>away with them in this big beautiful bill thing, and

379
00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:54.119
<v Speaker 2>other aspects of it that Elon Musk can disagree with

380
00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:57.240
<v Speaker 2>the president on. But as we saw leading up to

381
00:20:57.880 --> 00:21:01.519
<v Speaker 2>his departure from the government from his special contract, Elon

382
00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:04.880
<v Speaker 2>Musk was willing to disagree publicly with the president on

383
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:08.480
<v Speaker 2>certain things. And it's not that this is enough, at

384
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:11.440
<v Speaker 2>least in Elon's mind. I think it's not enough to

385
00:21:12.519 --> 00:21:15.519
<v Speaker 2>scuttle the relationship altogether. It's that Trump is the guy

386
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:17.039
<v Speaker 2>who doesn't let things go.

387
00:21:17.359 --> 00:21:17.519
<v Speaker 7>Well.

388
00:21:17.519 --> 00:21:21.000
<v Speaker 1>You can tell that Elon Musk, by the way thrice divorced,

389
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:24.559
<v Speaker 1>is younger and still doesn't understand the art of war

390
00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:28.079
<v Speaker 1>as well, because he doesn't get the toothpastes out of

391
00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:30.519
<v Speaker 1>the tube thing, you know, when you're heated, when you're

392
00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:32.640
<v Speaker 1>younger and you're in a relationship and you break up

393
00:21:32.680 --> 00:21:37.039
<v Speaker 1>and you say awful earth scorching things, right, and then

394
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:40.160
<v Speaker 1>you realize, like that's not cool, Like I didn't need

395
00:21:40.279 --> 00:21:42.279
<v Speaker 1>to say that. But the toothpase is already out of

396
00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:44.839
<v Speaker 1>the tube. The feelings are already hurt. You can't fix that.

397
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:47.279
<v Speaker 1>He did that with Trump yesterday.

398
00:21:47.440 --> 00:21:47.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

399
00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Trump was a little bit more measured in his personal

400
00:21:51.000 --> 00:21:53.400
<v Speaker 1>attacks on Elon. I don't think it's out of bounds

401
00:21:53.400 --> 00:21:55.599
<v Speaker 1>to say Elon Musk is crazy and that he's got

402
00:21:55.720 --> 00:22:00.599
<v Speaker 1>an issue. Yeah and yeah, they asked and answered several times.

403
00:22:01.559 --> 00:22:05.640
<v Speaker 1>But Elon Musk went scorched earth. He went, we need

404
00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:09.839
<v Speaker 1>a new political party. This guy's in the Epstein files,

405
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:14.039
<v Speaker 1>like he went scorched earth. And I think that that's

406
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:17.359
<v Speaker 1>a real problem in terms of any sort of reunification.

407
00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:19.920
<v Speaker 2>What about that third party thing? One of the things

408
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:22.039
<v Speaker 2>that Elon must I voted yes on Twitter.

409
00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I voted yes, and so did at the time eighty

410
00:22:24.200 --> 00:22:25.400
<v Speaker 1>two percent of the other people.

411
00:22:25.599 --> 00:22:28.680
<v Speaker 2>He wrote it, isn't it about time we have a

412
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:31.880
<v Speaker 2>third political party that represents the eighty percent of us

413
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:33.160
<v Speaker 2>in the middle or something to that.

414
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:35.839
<v Speaker 5>I'm not the exact wording of it.

415
00:22:35.880 --> 00:22:36.920
<v Speaker 6>I don't know, but.

416
00:22:38.640 --> 00:22:40.599
<v Speaker 5>It's a question that I think brings.

417
00:22:40.839 --> 00:22:45.240
<v Speaker 2>It means something different when Elon Musk says it because

418
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:49.839
<v Speaker 2>he has the political fuel and by that I mean

419
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:56.720
<v Speaker 2>cash to actually build up an infrastructure quickly for a

420
00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:00.279
<v Speaker 2>third political party. It's still one of those you know,

421
00:23:00.599 --> 00:23:04.640
<v Speaker 2>far off kind of fairy tale things that I don't know, but.

422
00:23:04.920 --> 00:23:07.240
<v Speaker 4>There should that be Elon Musk is the head of it.

423
00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:09.559
<v Speaker 5>He can't well, I mean, he could be the head

424
00:23:09.599 --> 00:23:11.359
<v Speaker 5>of the party, but he can't run for office.

425
00:23:11.440 --> 00:23:15.160
<v Speaker 1>No, I know, but I'm just saying, but yeah, Or

426
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.200
<v Speaker 1>is he just the guy behind the scenes who funds everything.

427
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:20.799
<v Speaker 2>That's that's what he does with his businesses. He's not

428
00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:23.680
<v Speaker 2>the rocket scientist, he's not the electric car inventor.

429
00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:24.680
<v Speaker 5>He's not the.

430
00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:29.599
<v Speaker 2>Hole digger for the boring company or those are. He's

431
00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:33.240
<v Speaker 2>the guy who administrates and puts those things together and

432
00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:37.400
<v Speaker 2>builds the team of rocket scientists, electric car work. I mean,

433
00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:40.880
<v Speaker 2>that's what he does. So I could totally see him

434
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:44.680
<v Speaker 2>being the head of a party and putting together a

435
00:23:44.759 --> 00:23:48.119
<v Speaker 2>team that would you know, I don't know, cut through

436
00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:51.880
<v Speaker 2>the Republican Democrat morass that we've seen ourselves.

437
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:53.359
<v Speaker 5>In, yeah, for two hundred years.

438
00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:57.480
<v Speaker 1>That would require such a machine, such a crafted and

439
00:23:57.519 --> 00:24:01.559
<v Speaker 1>a lot of money, nicely curated machine of people who

440
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:04.920
<v Speaker 1>who know what they're doing. I mean, who have been

441
00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:08.000
<v Speaker 1>in the trenches long enough but not too long to

442
00:24:08.279 --> 00:24:10.680
<v Speaker 1>know what you need to do to tear down the others.

443
00:24:10.839 --> 00:24:13.920
<v Speaker 2>You'd have to find those smartest people in the room

444
00:24:14.480 --> 00:24:17.880
<v Speaker 2>who hate politics, and I don't know if I mean

445
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:21.319
<v Speaker 2>just by nature of them hating politics or wanting to

446
00:24:21.359 --> 00:24:23.319
<v Speaker 2>stay out of it, but still being the smartest people

447
00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:23.640
<v Speaker 2>in the room.

448
00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:25.079
<v Speaker 5>Great time you get people there.

449
00:24:25.079 --> 00:24:26.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, wouldn't it be great to have a party of

450
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:29.319
<v Speaker 1>people just want to get things done, you know, using

451
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:33.200
<v Speaker 1>that Elon Musk energy and doge to cut through red

452
00:24:33.279 --> 00:24:36.920
<v Speaker 1>tape and get things done or out the bureaucracy without

453
00:24:36.960 --> 00:24:38.839
<v Speaker 1>the pork that's in the big beautiful bill.

454
00:24:39.160 --> 00:24:41.839
<v Speaker 2>Wouldn't that be great? And to have it funded by

455
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:45.519
<v Speaker 2>somebody who's not beholden. Yeah, you're no special interest. And

456
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:47.319
<v Speaker 2>that's the thing I liked about Elon Musk from go

457
00:24:47.680 --> 00:24:49.880
<v Speaker 2>mightd me of Arnold Schwarzenegger when he ran for governor.

458
00:24:50.279 --> 00:24:52.480
<v Speaker 2>It was so refreshing to have someone get up there

459
00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:55.400
<v Speaker 2>behind that podium and say I'm not beholden to anyone.

460
00:24:55.519 --> 00:24:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't care about the special interests. I'm not here

461
00:24:58.000 --> 00:25:00.079
<v Speaker 1>for the money. I'm not here for to run for

462
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:02.240
<v Speaker 1>president or what have you. Let's just get some stuff

463
00:25:02.279 --> 00:25:04.559
<v Speaker 1>done in California. I mean that was so refreshing.

464
00:25:05.559 --> 00:25:07.240
<v Speaker 5>Any developments will definitely break away.

465
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:07.640
<v Speaker 6>I give that.

466
00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:11.559
<v Speaker 1>It's because Gray Davis was you know, weekend at Bernie situation.

467
00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:13.440
<v Speaker 1>In terms of personality, it was a.

468
00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:14.680
<v Speaker 5>Wet stack of paper.

469
00:25:14.799 --> 00:25:16.880
<v Speaker 4>Tell yeah, maybe he's a great guy.

470
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:19.960
<v Speaker 5>If Kanye tweets anything about this, we'll definitely bring me

471
00:25:20.119 --> 00:25:20.400
<v Speaker 5>will not.

472
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:26.079
<v Speaker 6>You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

473
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:27.200
<v Speaker 6>AM six forty.

474
00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:32.640
<v Speaker 5>Sometimes it gets a little confusing to say the same

475
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:33.720
<v Speaker 5>thing over and over again.

476
00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:34.440
<v Speaker 4>Why is that?

477
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:36.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't know. I almost didn't say it right.

478
00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:40.440
<v Speaker 4>Is this stroke day? It could be okay, have you

479
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:41.839
<v Speaker 4>made that doctor's appointment yet?

480
00:25:42.960 --> 00:25:46.279
<v Speaker 1>No. I was listening to Mark Thompson and he was

481
00:25:46.400 --> 00:25:50.839
<v Speaker 1>talking about how after forty I think he said, you

482
00:25:50.920 --> 00:25:55.599
<v Speaker 1>start making all those appointments with the cardiologist and the proctologist.

483
00:25:56.440 --> 00:25:56.799
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

484
00:25:57.200 --> 00:25:59.759
<v Speaker 1>There was a bunch of ologists and I thought, wow,

485
00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:05.200
<v Speaker 1>after forty that seems early, right, And then I thought, well,

486
00:26:05.279 --> 00:26:09.319
<v Speaker 1>Gary's since seventy five and he has not seen a cardiologist.

487
00:26:09.559 --> 00:26:15.440
<v Speaker 2>If you I feel like this is my interpretation of

488
00:26:15.720 --> 00:26:22.799
<v Speaker 2>medical advice. Take into account pre existing conditions that you

489
00:26:22.920 --> 00:26:23.359
<v Speaker 2>know about.

490
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:24.400
<v Speaker 5>I don't have any.

491
00:26:25.359 --> 00:26:29.799
<v Speaker 2>Take into account family history. Like Dad had a heart

492
00:26:29.839 --> 00:26:31.039
<v Speaker 2>attack when he was fifty five.

493
00:26:31.160 --> 00:26:32.079
<v Speaker 4>Dad also smoked.

494
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:34.079
<v Speaker 5>Dad smoked for a very long time.

495
00:26:34.200 --> 00:26:34.319
<v Speaker 7>Right.

496
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:38.799
<v Speaker 2>Dad had had prostate cancer diagnosed when he was about sixty.

497
00:26:40.119 --> 00:26:42.240
<v Speaker 5>So you I know what some of those things are.

498
00:26:42.559 --> 00:26:45.039
<v Speaker 1>You had your prostate checked, right, Well, I had the

499
00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:45.759
<v Speaker 1>numbers done.

500
00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:47.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I had the blood the PSA test. That was

501
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:52.400
<v Speaker 5>a couple of years ago, so there.

502
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:53.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

503
00:26:54.039 --> 00:26:57.119
<v Speaker 2>I mean well, because listen, we did the story the

504
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:01.400
<v Speaker 2>other day about these these wearable aura your aura ring.

505
00:27:01.359 --> 00:27:04.599
<v Speaker 1>As your doctor, I'm just like me asking Google when

506
00:27:04.720 --> 00:27:05.400
<v Speaker 1>something happened.

507
00:27:05.440 --> 00:27:09.000
<v Speaker 2>I just mean that if you get too attached to them,

508
00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:13.680
<v Speaker 2>the aora ring, your whoop bracelet, your Apple watch, whatever

509
00:27:13.720 --> 00:27:16.200
<v Speaker 2>it is, and you rely on that thing and you're

510
00:27:16.279 --> 00:27:17.160
<v Speaker 2>checking it every day.

511
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:19.759
<v Speaker 5>Am I pregnant? Am I not pregnant? Am I having

512
00:27:19.799 --> 00:27:21.839
<v Speaker 5>a heart attack? Can I tell you? It warned me

513
00:27:21.920 --> 00:27:22.920
<v Speaker 5>that I might be pregnant.

514
00:27:23.599 --> 00:27:24.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, why was that?

515
00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:29.519
<v Speaker 2>Something about that my overnight body temperature was high and

516
00:27:29.640 --> 00:27:30.880
<v Speaker 2>my heart rate was elevated.

517
00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:34.759
<v Speaker 1>I would throw the watch out of the freaking it's

518
00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:37.559
<v Speaker 1>car if it said you might be pregnant.

519
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:41.480
<v Speaker 2>It said never live with me again. Multiple reasons why

520
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:42.680
<v Speaker 2>that happened.

521
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:46.799
<v Speaker 1>Could you imagine women, if you had a freaking watch

522
00:27:46.880 --> 00:27:48.680
<v Speaker 1>that lit up is like, you might be pregnant.

523
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:52.319
<v Speaker 8>How about f you like that's a scare? Some people

524
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:55.640
<v Speaker 8>might be excited about that. Oh right, there is that

525
00:27:56.440 --> 00:27:59.559
<v Speaker 8>just just to keep you, you know, tethered to something.

526
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:02.799
<v Speaker 8>There are people who would like that, to say that

527
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:03.559
<v Speaker 8>they're pregnant.

528
00:28:04.200 --> 00:28:07.039
<v Speaker 2>But you get so paranoid about stuff that it's that

529
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:11.079
<v Speaker 2>It's i mean, not constant worry, anxiety, stress, whatever you

530
00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:14.160
<v Speaker 2>want to call it, is more detrimental to your health

531
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:16.559
<v Speaker 2>than the knowledge of whatever's going on.

532
00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:19.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm with you, I'm I'm just I am with you.

533
00:28:20.039 --> 00:28:22.799
<v Speaker 1>Like I am one of the people who I do

534
00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:26.160
<v Speaker 1>have a physical scheduled. I am doing that, but I

535
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:28.880
<v Speaker 1>am also just so I'm gonna do what I can

536
00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:31.319
<v Speaker 1>to keep healthy and then if a wheel falls off,

537
00:28:31.359 --> 00:28:35.319
<v Speaker 1>I'll get it looked at. But until then, I'm not

538
00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:40.319
<v Speaker 1>hyper into checking everything out, and I don't want to

539
00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:42.079
<v Speaker 1>know all of the diagnostics.

540
00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:44.559
<v Speaker 5>Well, that that I think is the biggest issue.

541
00:28:44.599 --> 00:28:47.039
<v Speaker 1>That's why I'm gonna take myself in for a smog

542
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:48.240
<v Speaker 1>check hoping I pass.

543
00:28:48.359 --> 00:28:49.960
<v Speaker 4>If I don't, then I'll deal with that.

544
00:28:50.079 --> 00:28:51.440
<v Speaker 5>Can you get you get into it right?

545
00:28:51.519 --> 00:28:55.480
<v Speaker 2>You don't need the baseline checks of go in now,

546
00:28:56.079 --> 00:28:57.839
<v Speaker 2>do the full panel of whatever you need to know

547
00:28:58.119 --> 00:29:01.000
<v Speaker 2>so that five years from now they can look back

548
00:29:01.039 --> 00:29:03.759
<v Speaker 2>and go, oh, well, when you were fifty two, these

549
00:29:03.880 --> 00:29:06.240
<v Speaker 2>numbers were fine. We notice that they're a little elevated.

550
00:29:06.279 --> 00:29:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you want to either change your diet, change that.

551
00:29:08.759 --> 00:29:11.039
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we look into this a little bit kind already

552
00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:13.920
<v Speaker 1>proactive in that regard, Like I think both of us

553
00:29:14.000 --> 00:29:17.519
<v Speaker 1>have made changes in our diets and things to where

554
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:18.720
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, we're getting older.

555
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:21.799
<v Speaker 4>We can't do exactly what we used to do fifteen

556
00:29:21.839 --> 00:29:22.240
<v Speaker 4>years ago.

557
00:29:22.440 --> 00:29:24.720
<v Speaker 2>That story that we did also last week about the

558
00:29:24.799 --> 00:29:27.759
<v Speaker 2>most important decade of your life, we're out of it now,

559
00:29:28.359 --> 00:29:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Like you're out of it. Okay, well you are following

560
00:29:32.559 --> 00:29:36.400
<v Speaker 2>very fast, you are gaining speed. I'll tell you that

561
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:38.599
<v Speaker 2>I got a couple of years left. But but that

562
00:29:38.920 --> 00:29:40.880
<v Speaker 2>kind of thing is what you have to write.

563
00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:44.680
<v Speaker 5>Nobody wants to. It's sorry, it's common said.

564
00:29:44.720 --> 00:29:47.720
<v Speaker 2>You just have to make the realization that if you're

565
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:50.200
<v Speaker 2>going to drink six days a week, you're gonna wake

566
00:29:50.279 --> 00:29:53.039
<v Speaker 2>up six mornings a week and feel like absolute dog.

567
00:29:52.960 --> 00:29:55.920
<v Speaker 4>Turn right, and then your liver is gonna start hurting.

568
00:29:57.200 --> 00:29:59.599
<v Speaker 2>I think I think it was Ricky Gervais who one

569
00:29:59.680 --> 00:30:02.759
<v Speaker 2>time he uh, he was one of those guys who

570
00:30:02.799 --> 00:30:06.640
<v Speaker 2>said he quit drinking, which just meant he quit getting

571
00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:07.799
<v Speaker 2>hammered every night.

572
00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:11.519
<v Speaker 5>He didn't stop drinking, he just stopped drinking to excess.

573
00:30:11.640 --> 00:30:12.319
<v Speaker 4>What a luxury.

574
00:30:12.519 --> 00:30:17.240
<v Speaker 2>And so you know, in interviews he'll talk about, you know,

575
00:30:17.440 --> 00:30:21.400
<v Speaker 2>being finger quotes sober with a beer in his hand.

576
00:30:21.839 --> 00:30:24.480
<v Speaker 5>But he'll talk about, but now I can do it responsibly.

577
00:30:24.559 --> 00:30:26.359
<v Speaker 2>I can do I can I can enjoy the taste

578
00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:29.240
<v Speaker 2>of a beer maybe two, and I wake up and

579
00:30:29.319 --> 00:30:31.960
<v Speaker 2>I feel okay, and I I don't feel dog tired,

580
00:30:32.000 --> 00:30:33.279
<v Speaker 2>and my liver doesn't hurt.

581
00:30:33.559 --> 00:30:35.279
<v Speaker 5>He used to, he used to talk about it true.

582
00:30:36.039 --> 00:30:39.680
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, it is just a common sense, okay. And

583
00:30:39.759 --> 00:30:41.319
<v Speaker 5>there's different versions of it now too.

584
00:30:41.400 --> 00:30:43.359
<v Speaker 2>I'll say that because one of the my wife and

585
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:47.240
<v Speaker 2>I were talking about this exact topic last week, and

586
00:30:47.839 --> 00:30:51.960
<v Speaker 2>there is a there is a move out there for.

587
00:30:53.640 --> 00:30:55.960
<v Speaker 5>Just getting blood, just blood work.

588
00:30:56.079 --> 00:30:58.359
<v Speaker 1>If that's all you do, just blood work, it tells

589
00:30:58.400 --> 00:31:01.119
<v Speaker 1>there's the reason why Sarah Nos able to get so

590
00:31:01.279 --> 00:31:05.279
<v Speaker 1>much money, because blood will tell you everything or.

591
00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:07.640
<v Speaker 2>Damn lot of stuff, damn near a lot of and

592
00:31:07.920 --> 00:31:10.160
<v Speaker 2>the things that would be I would be concerned about

593
00:31:10.359 --> 00:31:13.200
<v Speaker 2>now are things that would come out in a blood test,

594
00:31:13.240 --> 00:31:17.240
<v Speaker 2>whether it's p S, a numbers, or a heart, liver

595
00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:20.279
<v Speaker 2>and all that sort of stuff that can be tracked with.

596
00:31:20.720 --> 00:31:24.119
<v Speaker 1>You want Elma to check your prostate and the break god,

597
00:31:24.839 --> 00:31:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, that was too far that now. An hour ago, Elmer,

598
00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:34.119
<v Speaker 1>you were like, are you inside of me in this hypothetical?

599
00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:36.640
<v Speaker 4>So I'm just following your lead.

600
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:44.799
<v Speaker 5>I'm sorry. I don't have anything else to do with

601
00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:46.079
<v Speaker 5>the rest of that conversation.

602
00:31:46.839 --> 00:31:47.359
<v Speaker 7>Oh you don't.

603
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:49.440
<v Speaker 4>Okay, all right?

604
00:31:49.599 --> 00:31:51.480
<v Speaker 1>I wish I could have backed away before it began,

605
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:55.920
<v Speaker 1>but no, here we are Gary and Shannon will continue.

606
00:31:57.559 --> 00:31:59.880
<v Speaker 5>You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
