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: Big Big Scientific Finding. Scientists say they've found the strongest
Speaker 2: evidence yet of life on an alien planet.
Speaker 3: Oh, I want to.
Speaker 2: Go well, to sell your to give away your mangoes.
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that when we get into strained science
Speaker 2: at the bottom of the hour. Reminder that the Dodgers
Speaker 2: last night beat up on the Colorado Rockies eight to seven,
Speaker 2: so they had the day off today. But the Dodgers
Speaker 2: will be taken on the Rangers in Texas with first
Speaker 2: pitch at five o'clock tomorrow night. Listen to every play
Speaker 2: on AM five seventy LA Sports Live from the Galpin
Speaker 2: Motors Broadcast Booth, stream all games NHD on that iHeartRadio
Speaker 2: app used the keyword AM five seventy LA Sports. Did
Speaker 2: you see Show Hayes first inning home run yesterday?
Speaker 3: I didn't.
Speaker 2: One of the few home runs to almost go completely
Speaker 2: out of stadium so far back there in right field. Wow,
Speaker 2: I think if I'm not mistaken, John Carlos Stanton hit
Speaker 2: one out in left field. This one was a massive,
Speaker 2: massive home run.
Speaker 3: So what else is going on?
Speaker 4: Time four?
Speaker 5: What's happening?
Speaker 1: Wow, Well, we've been reporting all the latest to you
Speaker 1: since it has happened. Florida is the scene of the
Speaker 1: most recent school shooting. This was at Florida State University.
Speaker 1: We do have a suspect taken into custody, multiple victims reported.
Speaker 1: Local reports are five fatalities, possibly with six additional victims
Speaker 1: being taken to the hospitals, but again no confirmation on
Speaker 1: those numbers. Also a report that at least one shooter
Speaker 1: has been taken into custody. Like we've kind of talked about,
Speaker 1: sometimes when these things happen, it can sound like the
Speaker 1: shots are coming from different places, just because of acoustics
Speaker 1: of whatever area you're talking about.
Speaker 2: At this point point, they have said that the Tallahassee
Speaker 2: campus a Florida State University is still technically on lockdown,
Speaker 2: and they've told people who are there on campus to
Speaker 2: continue to shelter in place until they are contacted by
Speaker 2: law enforcement. We don't know if that lends credibility to
Speaker 2: the fact that they may still be looking for somebody,
Speaker 2: or if they're just doing this out of an abundance
Speaker 2: of caution. And again, this was three hours ago that
Speaker 2: the first alert went out on the Florida State System
Speaker 2: on their emergency alert system. So we don't know yet
Speaker 2: if there is going to be a news conference the expectation. Actually,
Speaker 2: it's pretty unusual for them to go this long without one.
Speaker 2: So this is still considered an active crime scene according
Speaker 2: to the Florida State University.
Speaker 1: Wait, a crash in the valley and with an accident, well,
Speaker 1: not an accident, I guess, just a crash, a high
Speaker 1: speed pursuit, I should say, and in a crash in
Speaker 1: the valley. This was in Tarzana. It was a CHP
Speaker 1: and a c HP officer has suffered minor injuries, did
Speaker 1: decline treatment. Paramedics took the patient with non life threatening
Speaker 1: injuries to a hospital. But this happened about a half
Speaker 1: an hour ago that it came to an end. The
Speaker 1: pursuit did in Tarzana on Corbin Avenue.
Speaker 2: There there was another chase last night down in Orange
Speaker 2: County that ended with the cops shooting and killing the driver.
Speaker 2: Very dangerous high speed chase that ended with a pit
Speaker 2: maneuver and they crashed on the bridge over the Santa
Speaker 2: Ana River last night. Not clear when it actually started
Speaker 2: but we know that when it ended, this guy had
Speaker 2: blown through all kinds of intersections, hit numerous cars and
Speaker 2: whatever it was that the officers saw When they got
Speaker 2: close to him, as his truck was disabled, they decided
Speaker 2: to shoot back and eventually killed him.
Speaker 1: A whale that was trapped in a guildnet off of
Speaker 1: Palace Verdes about a week ago has been freed. This
Speaker 1: adult gray whale was first spotted by whale watchers April eighth.
Speaker 3: A day later, they saw the.
Speaker 1: Entanglement and found that the net had snagged a rock
Speaker 1: crab trap, keeping the whale from swimming free. But they
Speaker 1: were able after two hours to cut off the net
Speaker 1: and the whale is free.
Speaker 5: Well, the doom and gloom weatherwise?
Speaker 3: Can I have some Can I have some music?
Speaker 4: Here?
Speaker 5: It will be uh you guys?
Speaker 3: Rain, you guys, rain.
Speaker 2: Light showers expected through tonight into maybe tomorrow.
Speaker 3: When is winter going to be over? When will the
Speaker 3: sun come back? Could you imagine to light our doorsteps if.
Speaker 2: You went to Coachella last weekend when it was one
Speaker 2: hundred degrees on Friday, and you're going to go to
Speaker 2: Coachella this weekend and they're talking about seventy mile an
Speaker 2: hour winds.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's awful. The dust, the cold, the cold, the
Speaker 1: stages like Game of Thrones. Seriously, though, when's the sun
Speaker 1: shine coming back? Do you have an idea about that?
Speaker 1: Or do I have to look up some sort of forecast.
Speaker 5: I didn't realize that I was going to be the better.
Speaker 3: Saturday.
Speaker 1: The sun will be back Saturday, guys, we just got
Speaker 1: a hunker down for another day to gather through this hell.
Speaker 1: The sun will be back Saturday, and it looks like
Speaker 1: it will stay with us into next week, into the weekend.
Speaker 1: Don't worry. The sun will be back. The sun will
Speaker 1: come out, yes, but not tomorrow. Yes or Saturday?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Anything else? Did you want to throw in there?
Speaker 3: No, I'm still depressed until the sun comes back.
Speaker 5: This should be depressing, be jays.
Speaker 1: I don't even want to talk about that. Check it
Speaker 1: was depressing to me. Keep your cheese and baroccoli out
Speaker 1: of dessert.
Speaker 2: For the love of God, Hold on a second before
Speaker 2: you say this is an April Fool's joke on the seventeenth,
Speaker 2: it's not.
Speaker 3: It looks awful.
Speaker 2: The green and yellow concoction starts with a broccoli cheddar cookie. Okay,
Speaker 2: maybe not the greatest option, topped with two scoops of
Speaker 2: mashed potatoes. Yes, okay, And I'm warming up a cheddar
Speaker 2: sauce drizzle.
Speaker 3: Okay. Well, oh so it's not ice.
Speaker 2: Cream considerate dessert. No, I thought it was ice cream too.
Speaker 2: I thought it was cheddar and broccoli.
Speaker 1: Shouldn't call it puzuki, and they shouldn't shape the potatoes
Speaker 1: like ice cream.
Speaker 5: I think it's pretty brilliant.
Speaker 3: I like getting I like mashed potatoes. I ate a
Speaker 3: baked potato last.
Speaker 5: Night, the whole thing.
Speaker 3: No, I'm not a monster.
Speaker 5: It's okay if you ate the whole thing.
Speaker 3: You've been fat shaming me all You told me my.
Speaker 5: Face was weird and made you feel better about yourself.
Speaker 3: That was a joke.
Speaker 5: It was an obvious joke, totally a joke.
Speaker 1: Fast was screwed up. It would not be funny. But
Speaker 1: it's perfectly fine. It's an acceptable face. Thank you for
Speaker 1: my acceptability. It's about to make a reference to a
Speaker 1: major motion picture, and I stopped myself.
Speaker 5: Oh, I know what you're say. Yeah, it's an older movie.
Speaker 1: We want to talk, all right, when we come back.
Speaker 1: You want to talk about cocktails and roosters.
Speaker 5: It wasn't a Hell and Hunt movie, was it?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, let's talk about uh, let's talk about rooster
Speaker 2: Share Share.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI.
Speaker 4: A M six forty small.
Speaker 1: Business shout out This Thursday features rooster Fish.
Speaker 3: They're in West Hollywood.
Speaker 1: They also have a spot on Abbot Kenny there and Venice,
Speaker 1: but we Hooe is latest rooster Fish. We ho is
Speaker 1: the latest restaurant in bart to open in West Hollywood,
Speaker 1: and it's an a familiar spot, at least for people
Speaker 1: like me who watched vander Pump Rules for the better
Speaker 1: part of my life. Alex joins us now and Alex,
Speaker 1: you helped to run Roosterfish there in West Hollywood.
Speaker 3: How long have you all been open?
Speaker 5: We're going on our six month.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, so how's it going.
Speaker 5: It's going really well?
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Why West Hollywood?
Speaker 6: Well, the original Roosterfish, which opened up in nineteen seventy nine,
Speaker 6: is a historic gay bar, and we took it over
Speaker 6: in twenty seventeen and you know, reopened it still opened
Speaker 6: it up as a gay bar, but the demographics have changed.
Speaker 6: In Venice, we have a lot more of like a
Speaker 6: tech type of you know, Silicon Beach as I call it,
Speaker 6: and when we always wanted to take it to West
Speaker 6: Hollywood so it could go back to its roots, and
Speaker 6: we had the opportunity once Pump closed, we were able
Speaker 6: to take that location and it's the perfect location for.
Speaker 5: Roosterfish West Hollywood.
Speaker 1: It's a nice spot too because it's bigger, much bigger
Speaker 1: than your spot in Venice.
Speaker 3: You can't really get big spots in Venice.
Speaker 6: It's bigger, and we also have food that we don't
Speaker 6: have in Venice, so we have a kitchen component. So
Speaker 6: we're a restaurant bar I want to say, actually a
Speaker 6: rest restaurant club because the nightlife is pretty it's it's
Speaker 6: not necessarily just a bar, you know. We really we
Speaker 6: have different events every every week and it's fun.
Speaker 1: Is there ever just a gay bar? Like, isn't every
Speaker 1: gay bar a gay club as well? I mean you
Speaker 1: can go in in the middle of the day and
Speaker 1: it's a party.
Speaker 6: It definitely, especially on Santa Monica Boulevard and was Hollywood,
Speaker 6: it's always a party.
Speaker 4: Yes.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Talk about the food, I mean, who's who's designing the menu, who's.
Speaker 6: So one of our one of our partners Mario uh.
Speaker 6: He is an Italian chef, and our our mainstay is
Speaker 6: you know, has a really we have really good peaks
Speaker 6: of program pastas and so on. But we're adding now
Speaker 6: more to it for because we're able to expand on
Speaker 6: the the menu there. So it's really an American cuisine.
Speaker 6: We're gonna start We're gonna start putting some some sushi components.
Speaker 6: We're gonna have more salid options.
Speaker 5: It's a variety.
Speaker 6: It's rolling out next week, so I don't have a
Speaker 6: full menu, but if you if you check us out
Speaker 6: on our Instagram rooster Fish West Hollywood, you'll see all
Speaker 6: of the updates that are be coming up. But on occasion,
Speaker 6: like yesterday was country Night and we had ribs, we
Speaker 6: had barbecue ribs. Tonight it's Papasito Night, which is Latin
Speaker 6: themed and we have tacos.
Speaker 3: Wow, so really checked.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean like we're doing what Roosterfish.
Speaker 6: West Hollywood is like an ongoing show. So it's like
Speaker 6: every day there's a new there's a new event. Yeah,
Speaker 6: it's super fun. It's super fun.
Speaker 1: You have to have a well stocked closet, you know,
Speaker 1: to be a regular, you've got to have different outfits
Speaker 1: for different different nights.
Speaker 6: You have to, like even even for myself, like I
Speaker 6: have to constantly. Yesterday I was not shopping for cowboy
Speaker 6: boots and a cowboy you know me?
Speaker 5: Well it was Wednesday, so I think everybody.
Speaker 3: Cowboy can't look like a fool.
Speaker 5: It sure seemed like because I couldn't find any.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it reminds me of Farmer once a wife. I
Speaker 1: got into that show Alex last night.
Speaker 3: Don't do it?
Speaker 1: So what's your background? What are you into restaurants and bars?
Speaker 1: Is this your thing? Is this what you've always done?
Speaker 5: Yeah, not what I've always done.
Speaker 6: I'm one of four partners. It's myself, my brother, Vincent,
Speaker 6: Mario Chef and Patrick. But I've done a lot of
Speaker 6: different things. Starting off, I was I was in the army.
Speaker 6: It was a paratrooper in the army for a couple
Speaker 6: of years. Left that joined the LPD for a couple
Speaker 6: of years, and then transition into the family business with
Speaker 6: the furniture, and we did restaurants and bars and hotels
Speaker 6: and so on. And then about fifteen years ago my
Speaker 6: brother and Night said hey, let's not just make furniture
Speaker 6: for these establishments, let's actually own our own wow, And
Speaker 6: so that kind of that was the transition.
Speaker 3: I feel like I would watch Major Motion picture, right, there's.
Speaker 5: A lot to it. Yeah, so tell us the parts
Speaker 5: you left out. I want to say, we only had
Speaker 5: eight minutes. I don't want to start.
Speaker 1: If a guy mentions furniture and the police. You know,
Speaker 1: we don't want to get into like Denzel training days
Speaker 1: type stuff right here?
Speaker 3: Okay, So parking is parking an issue?
Speaker 6: Parking is not well, Parking is not an issue in
Speaker 6: the sense that there is paid parking everywhere. There's valley parking.
Speaker 6: There's parking in front of the abbey, which is right
Speaker 6: on oh right, right right next door, and then we're
Speaker 6: right next to Badigga Louis and they have valley parking.
Speaker 5: So it's never an issue.
Speaker 1: It's always fun there. No matter what time of day
Speaker 1: you go over to that section of who it's.
Speaker 3: A good time right now.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean we don't open until five, but you
Speaker 6: guys are welcome to come over.
Speaker 3: You give up for Jesus, no oh, somebody else did?
Speaker 3: Oh Joe did Joe quant did you could go lent?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: For Jesus right right? Isn't that the whole purpose of
Speaker 1: lent it is.
Speaker 5: The answer is no, I did not. I gave up
Speaker 5: other more valuable things. Wops.
Speaker 3: Do you uh? Do you know?
Speaker 1: Is there like a I remember the mural at Rooster
Speaker 1: Fish in Venice, Like, yeah, do you have that over
Speaker 1: there too?
Speaker 3: Is there something that did that?
Speaker 6: Yeah? We actually have been waiting if the city was
Speaker 6: Hollywood is listening, We've been waiting for them to give
Speaker 6: us you approval because they they count that artwork as
Speaker 6: a business logo. Wow, and so we're only allowed to
Speaker 6: have X amount of frontage. But you know, it's very
Speaker 6: sad because as you see the location in Venice, we
Speaker 6: have a lot of artwork, Like now, both the mural
Speaker 6: outside and inside.
Speaker 5: Is this the logo you're talking about?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it kind of. It's it's it's it
Speaker 3: goes with the brand. It is, it is, it's become
Speaker 3: the brand.
Speaker 6: But but the artist that did it, Diev, is an
Speaker 6: amazing graffiti artists, and we actually have permission from him
Speaker 6: to recreate it. And in West Hollywood they just have
Speaker 6: not approved.
Speaker 5: You're waiting for the city. We're waiting for the city.
Speaker 1: Now, are you going to have a rooster night where
Speaker 1: people dress up by roosters.
Speaker 6: That could be interesting. Maybe you don't, Maybe you can
Speaker 6: come up with it. I never say no. It sounds
Speaker 6: like a good time.
Speaker 3: So I'll keep thinking.
Speaker 5: Yeah, keep on thinking of cocktail napkin.
Speaker 2: That Alex Tappia one of the partners there at Roosterfish,
Speaker 2: the new one in West Hollywood on Santa Monica Boulevard,
Speaker 2: eight forty eight Santa Monica Bulevard. Again, he mentioned the
Speaker 2: Instagram account. It's at Roosterfish dot.
Speaker 4: We ho you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand
Speaker 4: from KF I am six forty Steve.
Speaker 3: I'm coming from Port Oregon.
Speaker 6: I'll maybe messages because Sonny and Bright Sonny and down there,
Speaker 6: but it's up here to here.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that sounds good. What Portland?
Speaker 3: Then you're sending me there?
Speaker 2: You know, I'm just saying, oh, there, you should go.
Speaker 1: I could grab a flight to Portland right out of
Speaker 1: Burbank this afternoon. Portland, Alaska will take me right there.
Speaker 5: Pretty unbeatable. Erry.
Speaker 3: I haven't seen you, but I think you are absolutely
Speaker 3: told week here.
Speaker 5: Thank you? Not just acceptable?
Speaker 1: Are you going to be asking for people to call
Speaker 1: in and talk about how good looking you are?
Speaker 5: Didn't you hear me? At she called.
Speaker 2: She left that message all by herself. I didn't solicit that.
Speaker 1: Please everybody, let us know how good looking is he.
Speaker 5: It's time for strange science.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, oh, I haven't.
Speaker 4: It's like weird science, but strange.
Speaker 1: I had that insect story. I wanted to tell you
Speaker 1: more about. Remember the insect with the most painful bite?
Speaker 5: Yes? I thought we kind of ran through that whole thing,
Speaker 5: didn't we Was there more to it?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, we kind of did.
Speaker 1: It feels like three inch nails stuck in your in
Speaker 1: your foot while you're walking through fire on coals.
Speaker 5: Did you ever step on a nail?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 5: I have twice?
Speaker 3: Really do you have tetanus?
Speaker 2: I didn't. I don't. Yeah, but twice I stepped on
Speaker 2: a nail. And once I stepped on an empty or
Speaker 2: broken beer bottle at my little league field.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, your parents don't seem to have
Speaker 1: the house that would be littered with broken beer bottles.
Speaker 2: No rusty nails, yes, but not the broken beer. So
Speaker 2: how big were the nails?
Speaker 5: Uh? There's probably what is that three inch nail? Something like?
Speaker 3: How old were you?
Speaker 2: It was five six seven somewhere in that area. Oh
Speaker 2: my God, a little bit older than that. When I
Speaker 2: hit that, when I hit the beer bottle, a three
Speaker 2: inch nail into your little foot, Well, I don't It
Speaker 2: didn't go all the way in, but it went in.
Speaker 2: A three inch nail would go all the way through
Speaker 2: my foot. Yeah, so but no it went in.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it hurts. It hurts a lot.
Speaker 1: And your parents did they say, just reb a little
Speaker 1: dirt on it, patch it up.
Speaker 5: Did they care that I was stepping on nails?
Speaker 1: Now? Right?
Speaker 3: Okay? I was hoped. Not.
Speaker 5: In fact, they were like, go out there and get
Speaker 5: a couple more.
Speaker 3: Right, let's build up your immune system.
Speaker 5: Let's see how you do with that.
Speaker 3: Neus.
Speaker 5: No, okay. So here's the big story today.
Speaker 2: Science wise, there is an atmosphere around a distant planet
Speaker 2: that shows signs of molecules that on Earth are only
Speaker 2: associated with life forms with biological activity.
Speaker 5: We do not know much.
Speaker 2: We don't know if there is life or if there
Speaker 2: is biological activity on this planet, but we know that
Speaker 2: it is a possibility. If you check out get passed
Speaker 2: all the comics and the letters to the editor and
Speaker 2: the Astrophysical Journal letters. There is an article there that
Speaker 2: says the authors have found the best evidence to date
Speaker 2: of a possible biosignature on a planet that is far
Speaker 2: from our solar See what kind.
Speaker 3: Of signature are we talking about? Animals?
Speaker 5: People?
Speaker 3: No, I guess they're the same.
Speaker 5: Nope, No, not that. Okay, here's the thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Specifically, the molecule that they say they have detected
Speaker 2: is dimethyl sulfide.
Speaker 5: Ahha, and that methyl sulfide.
Speaker 2: On Earth is produced by the decay of marine phitoplankton
Speaker 2: and other microbes.
Speaker 5: But it has no other known soul.
Speaker 1: Well, that's what I smelled last week in Huntington Beachie
Speaker 1: when that whale washed ashore.
Speaker 2: So the astronomers say they want to observe this planet further.
Speaker 2: It's known as K two eighteen B to strengthen evidence
Speaker 2: that that has water in fact present. So it has
Speaker 2: water so you can live there, they think it does. Well,
Speaker 2: how else would you explain the chemical that comes from
Speaker 2: the decay of marine phytoplankton without there being a water source.
Speaker 2: I have no idea there. I also don't know what
Speaker 2: goes on on other planets.
Speaker 3: There's no marine without water.
Speaker 5: On Earth, there's no marine without water.
Speaker 1: You think, what do you think these marine I don't know.
Speaker 1: What do you they're swimming in sand?
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I think I think you're like in beetlejuice.
Speaker 2: You're a little arrogant about your own knowledge about what
Speaker 2: goes on on other planets.
Speaker 5: You don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I will die on the hill that
Speaker 1: says the decay of marine phytoplankton is a definite sign
Speaker 1: of water on Earth.
Speaker 2: But what if the dimethyl sulfide comes from on that planet?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 3: I see, I see.
Speaker 1: So it's something else that would result in the same
Speaker 1: chemical that we get from.
Speaker 2: The marine final plankton, right, got it? Okay, so there
Speaker 2: you're saying, but they do. They are running on the
Speaker 2: same assumptions. They're saying. Listen, if what we know of
Speaker 2: on Earth, if all of the scientific properties that we
Speaker 2: rely on here on Earth exists and can be counted
Speaker 2: on in other places, then yes, maybe there is marine life.
Speaker 1: Well, I certainly rely on this show to bring me
Speaker 1: all of the analysis when it comes to dimethyl sulfide
Speaker 1: and where the hell it comes from.
Speaker 3: So we are where else you would go for that?
Speaker 2: We are your marine phytoplankton, another microbe show of.
Speaker 3: Record, Right we are.
Speaker 2: So I don't know why anybody would go anywhere else.
Speaker 2: My god, you know we haven't done it in a
Speaker 2: long time. What boom, Shakolaca Thursday, Let's do it. I
Speaker 2: mean science, we come back.
Speaker 3: You're in tissue samples on the way.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from kfi A.
Speaker 1: Six forty seven federal workers who abruptly lost their jobs
Speaker 1: in recent weeks are really stretching to make us care.
Speaker 3: I do care about people who have lost their jobs.
Speaker 5: That sucks.
Speaker 3: That can be true.
Speaker 1: As well as there's a lot of bloat in the
Speaker 1: federal government. Both can be true, but it's so transparent
Speaker 1: sometimes when people try to really make you care about
Speaker 1: them losing their jobs, like, for instance, seven federal workers
Speaker 1: who lost their jobs recently say they're worried that thousands
Speaker 1: of biological samples from human urine to frozen rodent organs
Speaker 1: may be left to rot in a government lab in
Speaker 1: West Virginia, that without us restoring their employment, these samples
Speaker 1: of urine and frozen rodents will go to waste. Like
Speaker 1: I am not hearing that and then calling up my
Speaker 1: congress person to say we've got to do something. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you heard the latest about these federal workers getting
Speaker 1: laid off.
Speaker 3: We're going to have urine go to waste.
Speaker 1: Now there's just gonna be frozen rodents that just they're
Speaker 1: going to be thrown out.
Speaker 3: Can you believe this?
Speaker 1: We have to do something like this isn't the right
Speaker 1: this isn't the right tree to climb up of on.
Speaker 2: Such a funny just the image of the they just leave.
Speaker 2: Who cares? Who cares about these things?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 5: I mean there's studies.
Speaker 2: Their argument is that the studies that are involved with
Speaker 2: these samples and animals need to continue. And if you
Speaker 2: don't have the samples and animals, they can't continue the studies.
Speaker 3: Okay, what's their study on?
Speaker 1: Because I've read more than I wanted to read through
Speaker 1: this article and wired and if there's a study that
Speaker 1: is on health or can give us some sort of
Speaker 1: leg up when it comes to curing things, cool, put
Speaker 1: that in the beginning, because all I've got is frozen
Speaker 1: urine and rodents that you're worried about with no math
Speaker 1: shown on what they provide us when it comes to
Speaker 1: medical answer what they're doing.
Speaker 2: So the research at this Morgantown facility say they've been
Speaker 2: studying how Gulf War soldiers were affected by mustard gas.
Speaker 2: How pregnant workers have been affected by exposure to pfast chemicals,
Speaker 2: or how manufacturing workers contract lung fibrosis silicosis specifically after
Speaker 2: inhaling nanoparticles from things like making countertops.
Speaker 3: Common sense to me, But.
Speaker 2: A team of researchers has developed a living building material
Speaker 2: composed of of fungal, micellium, and bacterial cells that are
Speaker 2: capable of self repairing. They set on like conventional construction
Speaker 2: materials like I don't know, cement or concrete. This bio
Speaker 2: based composite is viable for weeks. That opens new possibilities
Speaker 2: for regenerative architecture, like a concrete a building that would
Speaker 2: be able to repair itself right now. They say cement
Speaker 2: is responsible for about eight percent of global CO two emissions.
Speaker 2: They believe this innovation could pave the way for sustainable
Speaker 2: and adaptive building symptom systems. By producing this material at
Speaker 2: low temperatures relying on living cells, they could be a
Speaker 2: groundbreaking solution for them when it comes to the construction industry.
Speaker 1: Oh, we got a meteor shower right in time for
Speaker 1: John's show. Yes, this was a John and Ken special
Speaker 1: meteor showers. They used to get together and watch these,
Speaker 1: but on a cloudy day like today. The Lyrid meteor shower,
Speaker 1: one of the oldest annual meteor showers known to humankind,
Speaker 1: will grace the earth sky.
Speaker 3: Beginning this week.
Speaker 1: They will come into view and last through April twenty fifth.
Speaker 1: Leary Lyrids, like all meteor showers, the flying trails of
Speaker 1: debris left behind by comets.
Speaker 3: That'll be exciting.
Speaker 2: Well, and you don't have to sell it to me.
