WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.919 This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI 2 00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:05.360 A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on 3 00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:11.279 demand on the iHeartRadio app. President Trump has offered some 4 00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:15.599 rare criticism of Vladimir Putin. Oh, we've got China news too. 5 00:00:15.640 --> 00:00:17.399 It's where we kick off swamp Watch. 6 00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:20.079 I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar. 7 00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:23.359 And when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops. 8 00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:26.519 Here we got the real problem is that our leaders 9 00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:27.039 are dune. 10 00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:32.240 The other side never quits. So what I'm not going anywhere. 11 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:33.479 So now now you. 12 00:00:33.560 --> 00:00:36.280 Train the squad, I can imagine what can be and 13 00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.640 the unburdened by what has been. You know, Americans have 14 00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:41.880 always been going at President. They're not stupid. 15 00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:44.840 A political flunder is what a politician actually tells the truth. 16 00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:47.960 Whether people voted for you with not swamp watch, they're 17 00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:48.719 all countoid. 18 00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:53.799 President Trump right now, is uh is in the Oval 19 00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:56.280 office with reporters and he was asked a couple of 20 00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:00.479 questions about the truth social posts from Lane where I 21 00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:03.439 said he was not happy with the missiles that were 22 00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:07.239 flying from Russia into Kiev and asked Vladimir or told 23 00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:08.560 Vladimir Putin to stop. 24 00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:11.760 I didn't like last night. I wasn't happy with it, 25 00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:15.439 and we're in the midst of talking peace and missiles 26 00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:18.719 were fired and I was not happy with it. That's 27 00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:24.120 what I meant, And that's you know what I assume 28 00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:27.079 that's what you mean, sir. Yeah, if they keep falling, 29 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:30.719 will you consider additional sanctions towards Russia. 30 00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:32.799 Or what will you do? 31 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:35.120 I'd rather answer that question in a week. I want 32 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:37.280 to say we can have a deal. No reason to 33 00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:39.079 answer it now, but I won't be happy. 34 00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:42.879 Let me put it that way. Things will happen, Okay. 35 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:44.200 So he wasn't happy with it. 36 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:47.040 To play a little catch up, it is the fact 37 00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:50.359 that Russia attacked Kiev an hours long barrage of missiles 38 00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:53.599 and drones. The death toll has moved to twelve, the 39 00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:57.640 wounded to about ninety. It was Russia's deadliest assault on 40 00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:02.560 Ukrainian capital since last lie, and the reason it was 41 00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:06.840 even more egregious is because peace efforts were apparently coming 42 00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:09.759 to a head. Zelensky said the attack was one of 43 00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:18.639 Russia's most outrageous, and Vladimir Putin has been silent on 44 00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:21.879 the matter has not said anything thus far, at least 45 00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:27.360 that has surfaced about Trump's rare rebuke of him. 46 00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:31.159 I don't know what he would say. I mean, I 47 00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:34.080 don't know if he just in my mind he's laughing 48 00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:34.400 at all. 49 00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:36.680 Absolutely he doesn't care because. 50 00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:38.400 Like I said earlier, I would have wished. I have 51 00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:40.759 no problem with the president's message. It's a great message. 52 00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:44.000 But do it in person. Do it either on the phone, 53 00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.360 he can call Vladimir Putin anytime he wants, do it 54 00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:51.680 in front of international TV cameras. And absolutely decry this 55 00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:56.439 because as much of a reach as he has on 56 00:02:56.479 --> 00:03:00.280 social media, it is a weak message to post on 57 00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:04.840 truth social or I should say, it's the weakest medium 58 00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:08.759 in which to post something like that or to have 59 00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:13.000 something said like that. Now on the China side of everything, 60 00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.560 China has denied the president's assertion that the two sides 61 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:20.759 are actually involved in active negotiations over tariffs. China says 62 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:23.879 any suggestion of progress in the matter is as groundless 63 00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:28.800 as trying to catch the wind. The president did say 64 00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:32.400 that he expects that final tariff rate on China exports 65 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:35.639 would come down substantially from what is currently one hundred 66 00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:38.639 and forty five percent, and when he was asked if 67 00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:43.639 he's engaged with China, he said everything is active. His 68 00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:48.319 own Treasury secretary says, there's no formal negotiations, but something 69 00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:49.479 is happening supposedly. 70 00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:50.919 Here's something fun. 71 00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:57.039 You remember all of the craziness surrounding the signal app sure, 72 00:03:57.319 --> 00:03:59.639 and the fact that Pete haig Seth is still getting 73 00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:02.479 raped over the coals for having a second signal chat 74 00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.800 we learned this week with his wife and his brother 75 00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:07.879 who will both work for the Department of Defense, and 76 00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:10.879 his lawyer as well. This was all about the hoo 77 00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:14.080 thyes and real time information about what the United States 78 00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:16.240 would be doing to battle them and Yemen and the 79 00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:19.879 whole bit. You remember it all now, well, you remember 80 00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:22.800 that why it came to light is because a journalist 81 00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:27.360 was included in that group chat. The journalist that has 82 00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:29.439 been raked over the coals by all the powers that 83 00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:33.519 be in the administration. His name is Jeffrey Goldberg. Well, 84 00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:37.920 the President's meeting with him today. The President is meeting 85 00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:41.120 and sitting down for an interview with Jeffrey Goldberg, the 86 00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:44.279 editor and chief in chief excuse me of The Atlantic. 87 00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:48.560 The President saying about it the way I look at it, 88 00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:49.279 What can. 89 00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:49.800 Be so bad? 90 00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:56.600 Well, the what was the Kevin Spacey Netflix show? 91 00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:01.439 Oh, the h was a House of Cards? Cards? 92 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:05.600 Okay, So the House of Cards version of this would be, oh, yeah, 93 00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:08.319 Jeffrey Goldberg has a whole lot more information than he's 94 00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:12.319 letting on than he published, and he used that as 95 00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:14.199 leverage to get a sit down with the president. 96 00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:17.920 The House of Cards version of this also is Trump 97 00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:23.680 is going to make mincemeat out of this person. It's possible, 98 00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:28.319 still possible. Trump said, I am doing this interview out 99 00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:33.279 of curiosity and as a competition with myself, just to 100 00:05:33.279 --> 00:05:36.600 see if it's possible for the Atlantic to be truthful. 101 00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.360 He said, are they capable of writing a fair story 102 00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:43.000 on Trump? The way I look at it? What can 103 00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:43.800 be so bad? 104 00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:46.879 I won interesting? Uh. 105 00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:50.399 The administration also has asked the Supreme Court to allow 106 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:53.120 it to enforce the ban on transgender service members in 107 00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:56.639 the military. The way the policy is written, it would 108 00:05:56.879 --> 00:06:02.319 generally disqualify from military service individuals who have gendered dysphoria 109 00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:08.480 or have undergone medical interventions for gender dysphoria. This comes 110 00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:13.439 as a judge in Washington State tried to issue a 111 00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:17.439 nationwide injunction. So the Solicitor General on behalf of the 112 00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:20.920 government filed this emergency application for the court wrote in 113 00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:23.560 this filing the judges injunction cannot be squared with the 114 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:29.680 substantial deference that the Defense Department's professional military judgments are owed. 115 00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:32.240 This is similar to a band that was in effect 116 00:06:32.800 --> 00:06:36.519 that was implemented in the first Trump term in office. 117 00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:40.480 Elon Muskin Scott Pssent apparently had gotten into it. Scott 118 00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:44.160 Bissent's name is We've said it a lot, We've had 119 00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:44.920 it in our mouth. 120 00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:45.199 Quite a bit. 121 00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:51.000 He get my Treasury secretary's name. He has made a 122 00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:57.839 lot of headlines in recent weeks. He is, of course 123 00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:01.639 the Treasury Secretary and apparently Opposent and Elon Musk had 124 00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:05.120 a very loud shouting shouting match in the West Wing. 125 00:07:06.079 --> 00:07:09.040 It was described as two billionaire middle aged men thinking 126 00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:11.439 it was the WWE. 127 00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:13.839 I guess the whole. 128 00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:17.680 Thing came down to a guy named Gary Shapley, who 129 00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:21.839 was a whistleblower during the Biden administration, former IRS agent 130 00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:28.000 who leaked details about Hunter Biden's taxes, and Elon Musk 131 00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:31.800 wanted to have it went straight to the President to 132 00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:36.439 have this whistleblower put in charge of the IRS as 133 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:42.759 a temporary commissioner until the Trump pick could be confirmed 134 00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:46.120 by the Senate. Scott Bessen said, Hey, this is my job, 135 00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:48.920 this is my department. I get to make those decisions. 136 00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:52.319 And apparently they went after each other. The way the 137 00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:56.600 White House describes it or explains it, they don't necessarily 138 00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:01.319 say that it wasn't a shouting match, but that Caroline Levitt, 139 00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:04.279 the White House Press Secretary, said something along the lines 140 00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:07.160 of this is just further proof that the president has 141 00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.680 picked people who are passionately patriotic about their jobs. Okay, 142 00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:15.399 nothing wrong with fighting done, nothing wrong with you know, 143 00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.560 the strongest voices, the loudest voices. 144 00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:20.279 Trump loves it. Trump loves that. 145 00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:22.439 The White House, by the way, has been hearing a 146 00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:24.480 chorus of ideas on how to get people to make 147 00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:28.120 more babies Americans to get married and have more children. 148 00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:33.720 One Prepare One proposal would reserve thirty percent of scholarships 149 00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:37.080 for the Fulbright program for applicants who are married or 150 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.799 have children. Another would give a five thousand dollars cash 151 00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:45.679 baby bonus to every American mother after delivery, every American mother, 152 00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:48.360 every just ones that are married. 153 00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:51.440 Oh no, that's interesting. I would have thought that they 154 00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:54.080 would have wanted. You know, I haven't read the fine print. No, 155 00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:55.559 you may be right. I don't know. 156 00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:59.320 Third calls on government to fund programs that educate women 157 00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:02.559 on their men's cycles, in part so they can better 158 00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:06.159 understand when they are ovulating and able to conceive. Please 159 00:09:06.200 --> 00:09:08.120 put that one in motion. I can't wait. 160 00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:11.879 Please Government, the government to tell you about your period. 161 00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:16.720 That's awesome. Oh my good lord. Gary and Shannon will continue. 162 00:09:17.840 --> 00:09:21.320 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 163 00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:23.080 AM six forty. 164 00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:28.519 As you heard, Heather mentioned in the news, aircraft crash 165 00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:33.559 occurred at Langley in Norfolk, Virginia. The crash involved in 166 00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:37.360 experimental mx aircraft mx as, took place while it was 167 00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:38.840 on approach to the base. 168 00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:43.720 There is a pretty well known arabatic pilot who may 169 00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:46.240 have been at the controls of that. I'm not going 170 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:49.320 to give a name only because it's not confirmed at 171 00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:52.000 all that he was the pilot, but there is some 172 00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:55.759 concern that this was a well known aerobatic pilot that 173 00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:58.960 then crashed. You said, Langley in Norfolk, Virginia. 174 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:02.480 I believe there's an air show coming up that is why. 175 00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:06.759 Yeah, Well, Mark Zuckerberg, the guy who brought you the 176 00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:10.799 Facebook back in the old days, now in Facebook and 177 00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:14.080 of course the parent company Meta, which owns WhatsApp and 178 00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:17.720 Instagram as well as Facebook, now suggests that. 179 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.000 Social media is over. 180 00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:24.759 The people we follow, the messages they post increasingly feel 181 00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:28.120 like just noise in the ether. 182 00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:30.879 Social media has become less social. 183 00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:34.279 And that's what Mark Zuckerberg said in more than ten 184 00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:36.960 hours of testimony over three days last week in the 185 00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:41.639 opening phase of the FTC's anti trust trial against Meta, 186 00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:45.559 the parent company of Facebook, and those others. He said 187 00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:48.919 that the company has lately been involved in the general 188 00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:52.919 idea of entertainment and learning about the world and discovering 189 00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:56.399 what's going on and shifting away from what has been 190 00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.600 interpersonal communication. 191 00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:02.039 And that they've intended. Should he been doing it that way? Right? 192 00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:06.559 There were times when I think they failed miserably. But 193 00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:12.399 Facebook was talking about using its platform as a broadcast outlet, 194 00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:17.000 that people were going to start making shows specifically to 195 00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:19.320 be posted on Facebook. That's kind of like what they 196 00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:22.080 do though, like videos, right, video, Yeah, but I mean 197 00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:24.639 like sitcoms and dramatic shows and things like that. 198 00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:26.360 Well, it's got a pivot. It's got a pivot. 199 00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:28.519 I think, you know, like you said earlier when I 200 00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:30.519 was about I barely look at it anymore, and you said, 201 00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:32.360 it's because you're bored, and I said, yeah, probably. 202 00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:33.159 I mean, we're all caught up. 203 00:11:33.519 --> 00:11:35.440 I remember in two thousand and eight or whatever, when 204 00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:38.960 this was all becoming a thing, and it was like, oh, 205 00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.000 so and so's doing this, and look at so and 206 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:43.480 so and whatever. And now you now so and so. 207 00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:45.840 You're tired of seeing so and so. You know, I 208 00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:48.639 mean you saw so and so. You know, say he 209 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:51.120 has risen a couple of days ago with the family, 210 00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:52.159 and you know them kids. 211 00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:54.799 You've seen those kids through the years. You're caught up. 212 00:11:55.720 --> 00:11:58.360 You're not surprised at how big little Johnny's got exactly. 213 00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:02.480 So it's like, what's next, Right, That's the question you've 214 00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:04.799 got to keep asking yourself if you're Mark Zuckerberg's of 215 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:05.159 the world. 216 00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:12.120 Zuckerberg actually had a surprising moment, they say, during this testimony, 217 00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.679 the FTC showed him a memo that he wrote, and 218 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.200 he sent it to company executives for five seven years 219 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:23.200 ago twenty eighteen, suggesting that it would be better for 220 00:12:23.240 --> 00:12:28.039 the company to spin Instagram off to its own entity voluntarily, 221 00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:30.159 as opposed to waiting for the government to come in 222 00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:32.360 and tell them they had to do that. He said 223 00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:37.840 that Instagram was potentially undermining Facebook's success and that businesses 224 00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:40.480 that are independent often performed better than they would without 225 00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:42.879 the big parent company over the top of them. That 226 00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:46.320 is an interesting look at the way social media has changed. 227 00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:49.759 And I mean, if you think about the weirdness that 228 00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:53.840 is the time we live in when everything seems to 229 00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.879 be happening faster lately, I've been sucked into these memes 230 00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:00.240 where they show a picture of the Right brother is 231 00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:05.879 taking off and Neil Armstrong on the moon and talk 232 00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:09.879 about how close those time periods were, the sixty years, 233 00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:12.480 seventy years it was between those two, and that we're 234 00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:16.399 farther past the moon landing than the Right brothers were 235 00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.720 to the moonlight. Like it, that time is so weird 236 00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:22.159 and everything is happening so fast. When it comes to 237 00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:25.759 technology and digital interaction, it's. 238 00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:29.240 All about content and what is going to captivate you. 239 00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:33.039 Captivating content, right, it's not just the picture of so 240 00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:35.519 and so from high school on Easter with the kids 241 00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:39.399 in the pastel floral dress that's super cute. You go 242 00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:42.679 to TikTok now and you're getting that personal touch, but 243 00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:45.360 you're also getting content. I was on TikTok yesterday because 244 00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:48.480 I'm listening to new podcast about TikTok solving crimes. It's 245 00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:55.240 like this amateur sleuth area space and the amount of 246 00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:58.240 videos of women just getting ready doing their makeup, where 247 00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:01.879 you're picking up makeup tips. You're hearing about this girl's 248 00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:04.279 life and what what her day is going on, and 249 00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:06.159 what she's like dreading about her day. But you're also 250 00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:08.639 seeing like, oh, I should shade that area while she's 251 00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:11.720 solving true crime. I mean, it's like content has been 252 00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:14.960 taken from you know, black and white to now you know, 253 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:20.200 three D hypercolor, and Facebook just does not keep up 254 00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:22.360 with that from what it is right now. 255 00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:25.399 So what's the what I would love to know and 256 00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:27.480 would probably invest a lot of money in is okay? 257 00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:29.720 So what's the next version of social media? Is it 258 00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:32.159 that that's what they need to figure out? Clearly, the 259 00:14:32.240 --> 00:14:35.919 algorithms that exist in these in these sites give you 260 00:14:36.120 --> 00:14:38.600 stuff that they know is going to trigger your lizard 261 00:14:38.679 --> 00:14:42.080 brain and keep you coming back for more. Is the 262 00:14:42.120 --> 00:14:48.360 next iteration of that an AI powered algorithm where it 263 00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:52.440 makes up stuff, it makes up people that you would follow, 264 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:54.639 or it makes up posts that would keep you in. 265 00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:56.399 I don't know. I don't think so. 266 00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.080 I think we're going to swing back towards authenticity handwritten notes. 267 00:15:02.759 --> 00:15:05.039 I don't know. I don't know what it's going to be. 268 00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:10.120 But what was I going to tell you? Man? 269 00:15:10.360 --> 00:15:13.759 There's a trend right now called de influencing where it's 270 00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:16.039 similar to what you're talking about, where people are like, 271 00:15:16.639 --> 00:15:19.639 I'm going to uninfluence you by pairing everything down and 272 00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:22.519 showing you the real MEAs. 273 00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:24.200 This may not be the right version of that, but 274 00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:25.960 I've seen a lot of that when it comes to 275 00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:30.360 Hollywood actresses that are downplaying. That's not the right word. 276 00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:32.960 They're not wearing they're not wearing makeup. Kelly Clarkson is 277 00:15:32.960 --> 00:15:34.000 one of them in her talk. 278 00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:37.279 Shows, Anderson hasn't worn makeup for like three years now, 279 00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:38.960 and Alicia Keys. 280 00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:42.000 So I think it's that's similar, But I think the 281 00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:44.240 de influencing is more like I'm going to give you 282 00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:46.399 my honest review of this product, and I'm not going 283 00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:47.720 to tell you what they're well. 284 00:15:47.639 --> 00:15:49.080 Because it's so transparent. 285 00:15:49.279 --> 00:15:52.120 Right when you're looking at Instagram and somebody's excited about 286 00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:52.559 a product. 287 00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:55.360 It's like, are you really come on? Come on my 288 00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:58.720 coconut based lip balm. Yeah? I love it. 289 00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:01.200 Actually, it's well, do you haven't worn makeup for three 290 00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:01.720 years either? 291 00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:04.919 It's been a while. It's been a minute tech talk. 292 00:16:04.960 --> 00:16:07.000 When we come back, Mark Saltzman was going to join us. 293 00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:12.360 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 294 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:13.480 AM six forty. 295 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:18.639 Coming up in the next hour, we'll be diving into 296 00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:23.120 strange science. Have you heard about the caterpillar on Awahoo 297 00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:25.600 that wears the bones of. 298 00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:30.519 Its tray bone collector? Caterpillar? Is that an Alex cross 299 00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:32.159 the bone collector? 300 00:16:32.919 --> 00:16:35.960 This may shock you, but I have not read a 301 00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:37.840 lot of James Patterson. 302 00:16:37.600 --> 00:16:41.639 And that was also a movie with you know that 303 00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:44.399 guy and that cow? Was that right about the author? 304 00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:44.639 There? 305 00:16:44.919 --> 00:16:47.320 I believe? So okay, I wasn't going to challenge it. 306 00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:50.080 So our whole internet's down the whole building. Yeah, there's 307 00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:53.440 something going on in here? Is it China? It could be? 308 00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:54.480 Could be. 309 00:16:55.000 --> 00:16:57.559 We have been following a couple of stories which no 310 00:16:57.639 --> 00:16:59.440 Internet is going to make it a little bit more difficult, 311 00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:02.399 but one of them as we've been telling you is 312 00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:06.279 the story of a small plane crash at Langley Air 313 00:17:06.319 --> 00:17:09.880 Force Base just outside of Virginia, or I should say 314 00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:12.559 in Virginia. I don't know a whole lot about that. 315 00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:15.160 There are apparently an air show that's going to go 316 00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:17.400 on this weekend, so it could potentially be one of those. 317 00:17:17.480 --> 00:17:22.519 And then, as Heather mentioned, also a shooting at a 318 00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:27.119 business in Southwest Miami Dade in the Miami area. Of course, 319 00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:31.519 the police there have told television stations that the suspect 320 00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:35.880 is dead, that there could be several people who are injured. 321 00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:41.400 There's still helicopter shots of SWAT and officers in tactical 322 00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:45.359 gear with canines going literally car to car in what 323 00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:48.400 is a lot filled with cars. I mean, this is 324 00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:52.279 apparently some sort of a automotive business or used car lots, 325 00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:52.839 something like that. 326 00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:55.519 So we're keeping an eye on both of those stories. 327 00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:58.759 Mark Saltzman gets us up to date with all things 328 00:17:58.839 --> 00:18:02.200 tech at this time of the day and week, day 329 00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:02.720 and week. 330 00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:04.119 The machines are getting smarter. 331 00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:07.960 This is tech Talk brought to you by sky Net. 332 00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:11.319 Well, it's something we all go through in our lives. 333 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:14.079 We know at least somebody who when you text them. 334 00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:18.880 It's the green bubble, isn't it?
