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: I have Where Did It Go?
Speaker 3: I have a quick health update from the health desk Okay,
Speaker 3: the tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas.
Speaker 1: I woke up this morning and the first thought was,
Speaker 1: get me some TB news.
Speaker 3: This may not be the largest outbreak of the disease
Speaker 3: in history, but it is still significant because it's happening now.
Speaker 3: Two people have died since this outbreak started last January,
Speaker 3: and as of last or as of this week, sixty
Speaker 3: seven people in Kansas being treated for active tuberculosis, most
Speaker 3: of them in why in Dota County.
Speaker 2: I'm not sure I'm saying that right.
Speaker 4: Sounds good.
Speaker 3: Another seventy nine people have what they refer to as
Speaker 3: latent TB. They said that seventy nine active TV cases
Speaker 3: and two hundred and thirteen latent cases in those two
Speaker 3: counties where this outbreak is happening.
Speaker 2: They're not saying exactly one.
Speaker 1: It is a day of walking things back in Washington.
Speaker 1: It's where we kick off swamp watch the Politician.
Speaker 5: Which means I'm a cheat and a liar, and when
Speaker 5: I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops.
Speaker 2: Here we got the real problem is that our leaders
Speaker 2: are done.
Speaker 4: The other side never quits.
Speaker 6: So what I'm not going anywhere, So that now you
Speaker 6: train the.
Speaker 4: Swat, I can imagine what can be and be unburdened
Speaker 4: by what has been.
Speaker 5: You know, Americans have always been gone at President.
Speaker 2: They're not stupid.
Speaker 3: A political flunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 2: Whether people voted for you with not swamp watch, they're
Speaker 2: all counting on.
Speaker 3: Let's start with the Fed Reserve since it just came
Speaker 3: down a second ago. The Federserve analysis going to keep
Speaker 3: interest rates at the same level that was set last month.
Speaker 3: Although I mean that part of it's not a surprise.
Speaker 3: The surprise is this goes against the wishes of the
Speaker 3: new president. The FED Open Market Committee agreed unanimously to
Speaker 3: hold the target federal funds rate at between four and
Speaker 3: a quarter and four and a half percent. This is
Speaker 3: the just breaks, I should say, the three meeting streak
Speaker 3: of cuts that dated back to September when they rolled
Speaker 3: out their first rate cuts.
Speaker 1: Since March, well, they're waiting to see what the impact
Speaker 1: of Trump's policies will be They're gonna wait and see
Speaker 1: what's going on before they try and see what needs stabilizing.
Speaker 4: In that vein.
Speaker 1: The White House Office of Management and Budget has walked
Speaker 1: back that memo that ordered a freeze on federal assistance.
Speaker 1: This led to a lot of chaos, a lot of
Speaker 1: confusion around the country as to which federal programs exactly
Speaker 1: would be impacted.
Speaker 2: There's an interesting.
Speaker 3: Wrinkle in all of this that's going on because so
Speaker 3: the President signed this executive order on federal funding. It
Speaker 3: was immediately challenged and it was supposed to go into
Speaker 3: effect a two o'clock our time yesterday. Just before that happened,
Speaker 3: a judge issue to stay on that and said that
Speaker 3: she could do a temporary restraining order. She had scheduled
Speaker 3: a meeting for Monday or a hearing for Monday. Then
Speaker 3: this morning this news came out that OMB walked back
Speaker 3: their memo that ordered the freeze on federal assistance. Now,
Speaker 3: Caroline Levitt, the White House Press Secretary, said this is
Speaker 3: not a recession of the federal funding freeze. It's just
Speaker 3: taking back the memo that OMB put out, and the reason,
Speaker 3: she said was to end any confusion created by the
Speaker 3: injunction that was posted yesterday just before the cuts were
Speaker 3: supposed to take place. She said in a tweet. The
Speaker 3: President's executive Order on federal funding remains in full force
Speaker 3: and effect and will be rigorously implemented. I don't know
Speaker 3: if she you can do that because of the injunction
Speaker 3: that was posted by the court, But.
Speaker 2: So that's what's going on there.
Speaker 3: The other big deal in DC today is that RFK
Speaker 3: Junior is sitting for his first confirmation hearing. Democrats have
Speaker 3: been hammering him on vaccine, comments, on his stance on abortion,
Speaker 3: although he agrees with most of them on that side
Speaker 3: of the aisle about the issue of abortion. Kennedy, of course,
Speaker 3: was running as an independent because the Democrats didn't want
Speaker 3: him to challenge Joe Biden. Then he ended up supporting
Speaker 3: Trump in the presidential campaign when he announced that he
Speaker 3: was going to drop out of the race right during
Speaker 3: the Republic I'm sorry, right during the Democratic National Convention.
Speaker 3: So he has been answering all kinds of questions about
Speaker 3: his actual view on vaccines, despite what Democrats have been
Speaker 3: pushing about him being anti vaccine. He even referenced a
Speaker 3: book that he wrote ten years ago. The first line
Speaker 3: of the book is I am not anti vaccine, And
Speaker 3: he says the last line of the book is I
Speaker 3: am not anti vaccine.
Speaker 1: And there was a tense moment between him and Elizabeth Warren.
Speaker 1: She asked whether he could or would continue to take
Speaker 1: money from lawsuits he referred against drug companies. There is
Speaker 1: a law firm that employs his son that is leading
Speaker 1: litigation against Merk over alleged serious side effects from a
Speaker 1: vaccine guard Gasil guard Ghasil Gardasil. Kennedy has said to
Speaker 1: be as profited from a consulting deal with this firm,
Speaker 1: and under his ethics agreement, would retain a ten percent
Speaker 1: stake of fees.
Speaker 4: Awarded by the court.
Speaker 1: Warren asked, you won't go to work for a drug
Speaker 1: company after you leave HHS, But you and I both
Speaker 1: know there's another way to make money. Then she asked
Speaker 1: him whether he'd declined compensation from lawsuits against drug companies
Speaker 1: during his government service and for four years afterward. He
Speaker 1: said he'd certainly commit to foregoing compensation while he's secretary.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know it's dirty when you make
Speaker 1: money from going after drug companies, but at least you're
Speaker 1: going after big Pharma.
Speaker 3: Right, I mean, if you're gonna the enemy of my
Speaker 3: enemy may be my friend.
Speaker 2: Yeah or the friend of mine.
Speaker 4: I know what you mean.
Speaker 2: Oh whatever, So anyway.
Speaker 3: Oh, I wanted to play this because there was a
Speaker 3: question specifically about an old sound Hugaryan Shane.
Speaker 7: Then what's going on in the Old Swamp Watch intro?
Speaker 7: There was a part that went something like, Gwampwamp is
Speaker 7: a bad dude.
Speaker 2: Okay, let me play that corn pop? Yeah?
Speaker 4: Why was that hard to remember?
Speaker 3: Baddoo that was the corn pop was a bad dude,
Speaker 3: but he only heard Wampwamp was a bad corn pop?
Speaker 4: You remember corn pop?
Speaker 1: He was the guy at the community pool where Joe
Speaker 1: Biden worked that was a bully and Joe Biden was
Speaker 1: haveing nun of corn Poply.
Speaker 7: That went something like, womp is a bad dude corn pop.
Speaker 7: I have no idea what that's supposed to mean corn pop,
Speaker 7: although it's turned into a nice song. Gwompwamp was a
Speaker 7: bad dude. Gwampwamp was a bad bad dude. I'll stop,
Speaker 7: but if it's in your head now, you're welcome. Have
Speaker 7: a great day of folks.
Speaker 4: Thank you ain't you gonna be singing that all day?
Speaker 2: Dude?
Speaker 4: You sound like bugs bunny.
Speaker 2: Kids are dumb. There's a story.
Speaker 3: A survey people by Education Week says that seventy seven
Speaker 3: percent of educator's report that kids are having difficulty handling pencils, pens,
Speaker 3: and scissors, fine motor skills, fine motor scar in the toilet.
Speaker 5: Here's a kicker.
Speaker 8: I have learned that this started almost twenty years ago,
Speaker 8: is when it started to be an issue.
Speaker 2: What happened now?
Speaker 8: I just had a conversation maybe two years ago with
Speaker 8: my kids pediatrician where she was seeing studies that showed
Speaker 8: that because kids live in such a two dimensional space
Speaker 8: on screens all the time, that they are struggling with
Speaker 8: three dimensions, their brains are struggling exception. No, it's not
Speaker 8: that their death they can see, but it's just that
Speaker 8: their brains can't process spatial awareness. And it's weird because
Speaker 8: we've also decided that having an immense awareness of space
Speaker 8: is some kind of a sign of genius.
Speaker 5: Are high intelligence day behind me?
Speaker 2: Okay, you might want to move away from start to
Speaker 2: start time? You couldn't wait for the commercial break.
Speaker 3: No, My favorite part of the show today, By the way,
Speaker 3: is when Ellen k came down and she was talking
Speaker 3: to us about the concerts that's tomorrow night fire a La,
Speaker 3: and she had this big her eyes got really big
Speaker 3: at one point and she said, I didn't know when
Speaker 3: we were on the air or off the air.
Speaker 2: Because the stuff like this.
Speaker 5: Literally tips falling out of her mouth. Try to eat them.
Speaker 3: Well, we'll see how how deep she gets into this
Speaker 3: chicken burrito.
Speaker 5: I'm an award winning journalist.
Speaker 4: What listen, I know I had to be playing around.
Speaker 5: I'll take down Dave. We saw come after you next
Speaker 5: fair and evidently I'll punch you today.
Speaker 3: Your tooth has been bothering you. So you went and
Speaker 3: got some fake They had.
Speaker 4: Some bake Ora Jellens.
Speaker 8: She came back into the room like she had just
Speaker 8: had oral surgery, Like she's loopy.
Speaker 5: In the head, Like my mouth is done.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 5: I don't know what I'm doing. Just realize I cannot
Speaker 5: be held the.
Speaker 6: Catle over my actions a mile topographical that we gottle
Speaker 6: o ointments. It crowds to no longer hold me responsible
Speaker 6: as an adult.
Speaker 2: Says it on the back.
Speaker 4: It feels so much better.
Speaker 2: I am surprised. They don't have just a little, you know,
Speaker 2: needlefull heroin in there for you.
Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna try heroin now.
Speaker 2: A couple of big stories that we are following.
Speaker 3: Uh, it looks like President Trump is going to sign
Speaker 3: the Lake and Riley Act here. This will be the
Speaker 3: first legislation to get a signature since he went back
Speaker 3: into the White House.
Speaker 2: Named in the memory of Lake and Riley.
Speaker 3: This nursing student killed by an illegal alien in Georgia
Speaker 3: would allow the detention of undocumented immigrants accused of theft
Speaker 3: related crimes. He had apparently been released many times on
Speaker 3: those theft related crimes before being accused of murder. Fed
Speaker 3: Reserve kept their interest rates level. Investors widely expected that
Speaker 3: the decision to maintain the current level does pause a
Speaker 3: series of three consecutive interest rate cuts imposed by the
Speaker 3: Fed over the final months of last year. And the
Speaker 3: National Weather Services it is cold and getting colder. We
Speaker 3: could see temperatures into the mid twenties in some parts
Speaker 3: of La County tonight into tomorrow morning.
Speaker 4: Did we ever play the thing?
Speaker 5: This is by far my favorite day to be here.
Speaker 3: I just why why you're low grade high?
Speaker 4: I don't think it makes you high. You guys, it's Origella.
Speaker 8: At nineteen year old on a zema right now, like
Speaker 8: it's very strange to see you to the bubbles.
Speaker 4: Don't understand institution.
Speaker 2: Here's here's the other thing.
Speaker 3: Justin she has this has been dry January, probably the
Speaker 3: most chemically intoxicated.
Speaker 5: She's what's true.
Speaker 8: I am sorry. I did not know that was that
Speaker 8: was that was just below my Dave. We the backle
Speaker 8: of the previous.
Speaker 4: It's okay, it's all right. I'm basically dying of a toothpain.
Speaker 3: No, and I'm sorry. Of Justin Warshon was joined as
Speaker 3: we talk about parenting stuff. Uh and you're still parent yep.
Speaker 5: So far.
Speaker 1: So I sorry, sorry interrupting, interrupting party of one. I
Speaker 1: was reading People magazine last night and it came across
Speaker 1: an article about a documentary on HBO. An Update on
Speaker 1: our Family is the name of the documentary, and it
Speaker 1: opened me up to this whole world I did not
Speaker 1: know existed, and I'm.
Speaker 4: Terrified of it.
Speaker 1: And it is people who have kids and go on
Speaker 1: YouTube and chronicle their entire lives with their kids.
Speaker 4: Husbands are in on it, wives kids.
Speaker 1: They document everything from sun up to sundown and they
Speaker 1: make money off of it, sponsorships and stuff.
Speaker 4: And the whole thing is that.
Speaker 1: Like some people have babies just to get more followers,
Speaker 1: because when baby news happens, there's a an obvious bump
Speaker 1: in followership. And the more followers you have, the more
Speaker 1: lucrative endorsements you have, and all of that.
Speaker 4: It's terrifying how prevalent it is.
Speaker 8: I every time you hear about this, where you know,
Speaker 8: like I've yet to see a successful family have a
Speaker 8: reality show, and that's a great point, like come out
Speaker 8: and be like everything was great, like we maintain just
Speaker 8: and you start to wonder, like is a lot of
Speaker 8: the drama produced because they need to make it interesting
Speaker 8: or does it become this thing where your job has
Speaker 8: now become interesting so you have to manifest drama in
Speaker 8: your life where normally there might not be any. Or
Speaker 8: is it a genuine reflection that just most family struggle,
Speaker 8: like most people are just struggling to have what we
Speaker 8: would like to be a regular normal life. I don't know,
Speaker 8: but this seems like just a horrible reason to have
Speaker 8: a family.
Speaker 5: And I just like when my son who wanted he wants.
Speaker 8: To be an actor, he came to be when it's
Speaker 8: eight and I just flat out told him no, I'm
Speaker 8: like because, and he's like why, and.
Speaker 5: I go, statistically, it doesn't break well for you.
Speaker 2: Because dads are built to squash dreams.
Speaker 8: Exactly, Thank you, Gary. I thought I was doing my
Speaker 8: job to make him creative. Right, he has to have
Speaker 8: an abusive father so he can lash out and write
Speaker 8: negative characters his fathers and movies.
Speaker 5: Yeah, all he wanted to do is work. He just
Speaker 5: wanted to work.
Speaker 8: Hate every family movie ever made where the dad is like,
Speaker 8: I'm just trying to pay for you in this three
Speaker 8: thousand square foot house. But I'm the animal, I'm the villain. Oh,
Speaker 8: we're only happy when dad's not working.
Speaker 5: Evidently I'm coming in hot and I apologize.
Speaker 4: I feel bad for day.
Speaker 5: I don't. Yeah, I mean, how why would you have?
Speaker 7: Like?
Speaker 5: You don't. You don't make a person for content. That's
Speaker 5: not a reason to have it.
Speaker 1: That's exactly what they take is is that you're making
Speaker 1: things for content. You're using your family for content, and
Speaker 1: it's disgusting and.
Speaker 8: The volume of time that your kids like you. Just
Speaker 8: hear so many interviews of people who grow up in
Speaker 8: entertainment and now they have to learn about dealing with
Speaker 8: the idea that all of their mistakes are publicized whereas
Speaker 8: ours aren't. Right, Like, we get to screw up and
Speaker 8: nobody really knows. But if somebody who's famous screws up
Speaker 8: or they have a million followers on YouTube, it's.
Speaker 2: Hard to hide from that.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and I still like there was a couple I
Speaker 8: saw documentary. I think it was a documentary on like
Speaker 8: I think it was maybe you porn or something or
Speaker 8: porn hub is like some kind.
Speaker 2: Of there was a this where you watch your documentaries?
Speaker 8: Yeah, why is that not? It's a great there's a
Speaker 8: lot of them. I've got I haven't even scratched the surface,
Speaker 8: it seems, but really short anyway about the site.
Speaker 5: Yes, it was.
Speaker 8: About like the development of the porn hubs. And I
Speaker 8: think there was like there or something. There was a
Speaker 8: family that was there. Oh no, it was Ashley Madison.
Speaker 8: I'm sorry all of the greats that I'm going through,
Speaker 8: but there was a family that they were like a
Speaker 8: good Christian couple. And then it came out that this
Speaker 8: that the husband who was on this YouTube channel, that
Speaker 8: they were a good Christian couple. He was having multiple
Speaker 8: affairs through Ashley Madison, and then he had to kind
Speaker 8: of deal with that publicly because people started finding out
Speaker 8: when there was a data leak about who was on
Speaker 8: Ashley Madison and his name came up. So like, I
Speaker 8: just and it's rough, right, Like how like I just
Speaker 8: don't know of anybody who comes out of that okay
Speaker 8: where the family seems good? But how many of your
Speaker 8: friends have families that you would say like they're doing great,
Speaker 8: like maybe or maybe not even great, but just good.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, there I can think of a few,
Speaker 3: a handful probably that probably overshare about stuff, but they
Speaker 3: only overshare the most positive stuff. And you know it
Speaker 3: can't be all positive. It just can't. There's just no way.
Speaker 8: Well, and I'm even saying, like in your circle of friends,
Speaker 8: all of our circle of friends, I would say probably
Speaker 8: my perception is that at least seventy percent of my
Speaker 8: friends have a really good family life, like things are good?
Speaker 5: Right? Is that? Do you think that I'm wrong about that?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 8: What's your definition of good? I mean, not like your
Speaker 8: marriage is on the rocks. Yeah, not the marriages on
Speaker 8: the rocks. The kids are being neglected or or like
Speaker 8: out of line.
Speaker 2: It may not be easy but it's good.
Speaker 3: Yes, Okay, yeah, I don't know about seventy percent, but
Speaker 3: I mean cause I think I think people would be
Speaker 3: They're less likely to share with you the information that
Speaker 3: would make you think that it is not so good.
Speaker 8: And that's a great because I've made this joke recently.
Speaker 8: I was hanging out with people and I'm not good
Speaker 8: at that. Like I say everything like I don't. I
Speaker 8: don't I say the things I mess up. I say
Speaker 8: the things.
Speaker 5: That I succeed at. I don't. People tell me all
Speaker 5: the time, Like, that's probably something you shouldn't.
Speaker 3: Be telling you.
Speaker 2: I'm glad you come in here and do it.
Speaker 5: Everyone.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about emotional well, which one do you want?
Speaker 1: You want a hardest age or let's talk about emotional emotional.
Speaker 8: Regulation the emotional So what they found is that the
Speaker 8: common factor or the best way or the parent who
Speaker 8: has the most impact on a kid who can regulate
Speaker 8: their emotions is a father, because fathers are prone to
Speaker 8: like they use the example of rough house, like rough
Speaker 8: housing while while you're wrestling with your kid and you
Speaker 8: have a smile on their face and they feel like
Speaker 8: they're doing stuff that's rough, but they never get hurt. Right,
Speaker 8: that that teaches them to kind of deal with a
Speaker 8: little bit of anxiety. And dads are also prone to
Speaker 8: like push their kids to more risky situations.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: As an example, my kids used to jump on our
Speaker 3: bed and we would do a pillow fight. Yeah, many
Speaker 3: many days, many many days out of the week. And
Speaker 3: the rule was the first person who cries the first cry. Yeah,
Speaker 3: game's over, games over all things shuts down and kick.
Speaker 9: Out of those kids start out fun and funny and like,
Speaker 9: you know, push them over and get old like yeah,
Speaker 9: somewhere in that in that vein, but not eighteen No, No,
Speaker 9: we tried that once.
Speaker 2: It didn't worry.
Speaker 3: You cried, But there was a time when I would
Speaker 3: ramp up, you know, you'd get it, and then there
Speaker 3: was like, this is going to go on forever unless
Speaker 3: one of these guys cry.
Speaker 2: So I just rare back and what.
Speaker 4: Am throw a kid against a wall?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: I never did that.
Speaker 3: I would just knock him off the bed because that
Speaker 3: at least the floors carpeted.
Speaker 2: You would purpose.
Speaker 4: What I'm hearing is you would purposefully make your children cry.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what a father does, Shannon.
Speaker 2: Hello, Yeah, I'm regulating their emotions.
Speaker 4: Interesting else is teaching them.
Speaker 8: To deal with the negative experience, which that's to me
Speaker 8: is I really can resonate with that. Like I really
Speaker 8: think that that's what dads do.
Speaker 1: Is that this whole I left all the corporal punishment
Speaker 1: up to my brother.
Speaker 2: I think, oh what they outsourced.
Speaker 1: It in terms of being thrown against a wall and
Speaker 1: things like that pillow fight, stuff like that.
Speaker 2: He do that to you?
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, but your dad wasn't a guy who would
Speaker 8: wrestle or do any now, but what do he make
Speaker 8: you do? Like kind of scary things like, I don't know,
Speaker 8: go out on a fishing boat.
Speaker 4: Or something something that makes you go You wouldn't know
Speaker 4: what to do with a fishing boat?
Speaker 5: Okay, did you.
Speaker 1: Not?
Speaker 4: Really?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: That was my brother too.
Speaker 5: What did you What kind of stuff did you do
Speaker 5: with your watch?
Speaker 1: Mafia movies, football games, go to the Wiener Schnitzel.
Speaker 8: I still think, I mean, honestly, I think Stitzel and
Speaker 8: Mafia movies definitely count as we're taking risks, right, Yes,
Speaker 8: Like it's a scary movie, probably a little bit beyond
Speaker 8: your years, you know what I mean?
Speaker 5: That makes you feel a little uncomfortable?
Speaker 1: What about in your house. Who's the emotional who drives
Speaker 1: the emotional trains?
Speaker 5: How dare you don't I'm not going to step on
Speaker 5: that landmark.
Speaker 1: I was just curious if it's the woman in any
Speaker 1: of these situations, it definitely is.
Speaker 8: I'm probably I would say my wife is closer to
Speaker 8: the Gary emotional spectrum than she is to uh your
Speaker 8: for that like easily. But I'm also the guy, Like
Speaker 8: we just had this, we went through this with I
Speaker 8: was starting to tell Gary off the air. My thirteen
Speaker 8: year old came and said, I want to get a job.
Speaker 8: And my wife's first reaction was you're too young to
Speaker 8: have a job, and I said, no, give it a shot.
Speaker 8: And then I talked to her in private. I said,
Speaker 8: let's not tell him that he's too young, Like, let
Speaker 8: him go try to figure out. He found a local
Speaker 8: place that was within walking distance of our house and
Speaker 8: he wanted to go there to do the thing where
Speaker 8: you say, hey, I want to get a job, and
Speaker 8: she's like, well, go drive him, and I'm like, no,
Speaker 8: he can walk, he's got a phone.
Speaker 4: It's as initiative, yes.
Speaker 8: Yes, And so I want to get that to me
Speaker 8: is like kind of what they're talking about a big
Speaker 8: praise of myself.
Speaker 5: I'm crushing it like these dads in this study.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's true, that's good.
Speaker 1: I mean, I think initiative should be rewarded, especially we're
Speaker 1: talking yesterday about kids coming out of college and they're
Speaker 1: getting fired because they don't show initiative.
Speaker 8: Right, they don't know what to do. And that's and again,
Speaker 8: all of this was uncoached. It just came out of nowhere.
Speaker 8: The only coaching I gave him was like here, like
Speaker 8: I kind of role played the scenario, would say, well,
Speaker 8: what are they going to ask?
Speaker 5: Or what should I ask?
Speaker 8: And I talked him through it, and he wanted to
Speaker 8: go through every possible scenario. And I just told him,
Speaker 8: I said, listen, there's so many variables. It's not worth
Speaker 8: planning to this level.
Speaker 4: You should drop them off at Chris Little's house.
Speaker 5: Oh, he'll run him through the ring.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the interview, he would. He was kind of known
Speaker 1: for asking bizarre questions like you say, you were dropped
Speaker 1: in at the bottom of a blender, how would you
Speaker 1: get out?
Speaker 2: How do you get out?
Speaker 4: How do you get out?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 8: Man, I didn't even make it to the interview. When
Speaker 8: I applied past the writing exam. I will I'm going
Speaker 8: to come up with some fun scenarios.
Speaker 4: That's a writing exam, not when I submitted to be.
Speaker 8: When I was working here, I tried to be an
Speaker 8: anchor at one point on the weekend or overnight, I.
Speaker 4: Failed HN exam at Fox News in New York.
Speaker 5: I have that in common. Then, only mine was name.
Speaker 4: All the justices.
Speaker 2: On the Supreme Court.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like twenty two.
Speaker 2: I do like that. It's no business.
Speaker 3: Male parents tend to be more supportive of their kids
Speaker 3: taking risks. But I think there's at least a percentage
Speaker 3: of that, which is I don't care what you do
Speaker 3: for a dad, Like I'm gonna. I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 3: start to see the difference between diesel and gasoline, like,
Speaker 3: which warns Hotter, you'd be like, okay, learned age, You're
Speaker 3: gonna learn something.
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're gonna learn the difference.
Speaker 5: Yeah I am. I've always been wired.
Speaker 8: As emotional as I am about my kids, I have
Speaker 8: always been wired to let them fail because I, like
Speaker 8: I told my son, I go, either you're going to
Speaker 8: get a job, or you're going to learn from this experience.
Speaker 8: I go, don't try to overplan and over calculate the
Speaker 8: whole thing. I said, just go and try it. You've
Speaker 8: never done this before, so it's unreasonable to expect yourself
