Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to kf
Speaker 1: I A M six forty, The Gary and Shannon Show
Speaker 1: on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: We still have stuff that we're giving away. We have
Speaker 2: some Gary and Shannon Show swag, some hats and T shirts.
Speaker 1: I've met two babies.
Speaker 3: There have been two babies, one wearing a Deebo Samuel.
Speaker 1: I mean, does it get better than this baby and
Speaker 1: the Deebo Samuel Jersey. I also met baby Lily.
Speaker 3: Hold that baby up like lion king. That was That.
Speaker 2: Was great, fantastic.
Speaker 3: I love it.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's so good.
Speaker 3: Oh did you see is yours? How about that? James
Speaker 3: Earl Jones died?
Speaker 1: I know what a loss.
Speaker 3: Sorry that was.
Speaker 1: I just thought, I mean dark Vader sort of sort
Speaker 1: of like that.
Speaker 2: Do you know James Earl Jones was not actually Mark
Speaker 2: Hamill's father.
Speaker 1: What.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I didn't find that out until he passed away.
Speaker 3: Do you see the look on this face here?
Speaker 2: This was that was an amazingly long There were so
Speaker 2: many like empty bubbles in your head just now, just now.
Speaker 3: And they all popped at the same time.
Speaker 1: It's kind of a that's kind of a regular thing.
Speaker 3: That was agreed. That was a great look.
Speaker 2: At bottom of the hour, we're going to get into
Speaker 2: some strange science stories, and like I said, we have
Speaker 2: some stuff that we're going to be giving away, including
Speaker 2: the tickets to Sweet Caroline the Music of Neil Diamond
Speaker 2: starring Jay White at the Sorita Center for the Performing Arts.
Speaker 3: That's coming up. But in the meantime, what else is
Speaker 3: going on? Time for what's happening?
Speaker 1: Well, we've been talking about it. Oh, we've been talking
Speaker 1: about it all day. The earthquake. I didn't feel it.
Speaker 1: You were driving, But Deborah was a naked in the
Speaker 1: shower with conditioner in her ear.
Speaker 3: She didn't she never, she never said the word naked.
Speaker 1: Have you ever taken a shower not naked? Your honor?
Speaker 1: I rest my case.
Speaker 3: I didn't get it. I didn't have a chance to answer.
Speaker 2: I was trying to I'm trying to revisit all of
Speaker 2: the times that I've taken a shower, and I didn't
Speaker 2: find any that I had clothes.
Speaker 1: You were nude too, That's an old John and Ken drop.
Speaker 2: So it was about a four point seven magnitude quake
Speaker 2: centered in Malibu at about seven thirty this morning while
Speaker 2: we were on the air here at about nine thirty,
Speaker 2: there was another It was an aftershock.
Speaker 3: There was about a three point four.
Speaker 2: I didn't think anybody felt it here, Like I said,
Speaker 2: we were just having too much fun.
Speaker 1: Microsoft announced that systems are back online. There was a
Speaker 1: temporary outage that affected its services, but now it has
Speaker 1: been fully resolved, so you can jump on. Is that
Speaker 1: a team's thing or well?
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 2: They also said it was not their faulty. There was
Speaker 2: a change within a third party ISP's managed environment.
Speaker 1: What the hell does that mean?
Speaker 2: I feel like, you know, I've joked about my daughter now.
Speaker 2: You know, organic chemistry is her field of study, and
Speaker 2: she start maybe three or four years ago when she
Speaker 2: would talk about chemistry. I stopped understanding. I mean, just
Speaker 2: you get out of sophomore level high school chemistry, and
Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about right this. There's
Speaker 2: something about computers that I feel like ended in nineteen
Speaker 2: ninety five or ninety six, whereas I'm not even interested
Speaker 2: in what a third party Internet service provider's managed environment is.
Speaker 1: It sounds like maybe there was like an air conditioner
Speaker 1: that broke in a building somewhere that houses servers, a
Speaker 1: server farm.
Speaker 2: Again, you're but even that is so far above the
Speaker 2: level that.
Speaker 1: I only know enough to say that is because I've
Speaker 1: read a bunch of Michael Connolly f books that involve
Speaker 1: that very plot line.
Speaker 3: I see.
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, we if you want to do balls jokes,
Speaker 1: were your people?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I feel like that's we have a d.
Speaker 2: A PhD. Perhaps when it comes to scrotal humor. Right yeah,
Speaker 2: but I mean organic chemistry. And you know I advaced
Speaker 2: computation systems, not us.
Speaker 1: And I say we're pretty much a team because I
Speaker 1: tried to do some balls jokes while you were gone
Speaker 1: totally fell flat.
Speaker 3: Well who are you saying them to?
Speaker 1: Just various people, just your normal humans.
Speaker 3: Roll your window down at an intersection.
Speaker 2: I don't know why I did this, because I know
Speaker 2: you don't have windows that roll down anymore.
Speaker 3: But I just everybody knows, like.
Speaker 2: If I did this, if there's anybody here under the
Speaker 2: age of fifteen, I'd say under the age of thirty.
Speaker 2: And I do this with my hands. When I say
Speaker 2: rolling down the window, you don't know what I'm doing.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 2: You think I'm cranking the engine in the front, Like
Speaker 2: is nineteen eighteen or something?
Speaker 3: Is it even better? Reference.
Speaker 2: One of the big deals in New York is that
Speaker 2: the police commissioner has resigned. In fact, they have already
Speaker 2: named an interim police commissioner there, Tom Donlin, former BI
Speaker 2: counter terrorism official. Mayor Eric Adams made the announcement that
Speaker 2: Donalin's going to take over because and battled to police
Speaker 2: Commissioner now former Edward Kabon Cavin cabin uh step down
Speaker 2: after this, or I should say, in the midst of
Speaker 2: this federal investigation that saw federal agents come in and
Speaker 2: take a bunch of electronic devices during his home from
Speaker 2: his home. I don't think that's ever a great thing
Speaker 2: when the FBI comes and takes computers out of your house.
Speaker 1: Especially if you've got your genitals on him, like Shannon
Speaker 1: Sharp or just Shannon Sharp, j Anthony Wiener. The sounds
Speaker 1: of your oh it's awful, people are eating. Gary, have
Speaker 1: a little decency.
Speaker 2: You're the one who literally just said if we're the
Speaker 2: people to go to for balls.
Speaker 1: Jokes right, and I want to walk that back.
Speaker 3: That's too late.
Speaker 2: Speaking of Harvey Weinstein has been indicted on some new charges.
Speaker 2: The guy who literally looks like a giant scrowed them
Speaker 2: Oh my.
Speaker 3: God, charges too far.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you spent your vacation doing, but
Speaker 1: you can't come back here with all this smut and
Speaker 1: just lay it on us. Am I right again.
Speaker 2: We established early on that I had not seen the
Speaker 2: Shannon Sharp video.
Speaker 3: And you watched it twice. I love it. I don't
Speaker 3: think it.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 2: Something about glass houses and rights and throwing dirty socks. Yeah, anyway,
Speaker 2: Harvey Weinstein indicted on new charges by a grand jury
Speaker 2: in the City of New York. Prosecutor said the indictment
Speaker 2: is currently under seal.
Speaker 3: Trial.
Speaker 2: It has been set for November twelfth. The District Attorney's
Speaker 2: office didn't provide any specifics about the new charges, although
Speaker 2: they said it was not they believe not connected to
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty conviction that had been overturned, but he
Speaker 2: will likely go for retrial on that.
Speaker 1: I think that was the first time when I saw
Speaker 1: the breaking news was during the show that Harvey Weinstein
Speaker 1: had been rushed to the hospital for emergency heart surgery.
Speaker 1: It was the first time I ever had the reaction of, Oh,
Speaker 1: thank God that this guy's got to shot it dying.
Speaker 1: For a couple of reasons. Number one, he's horrible, he's
Speaker 1: a horrible excuse for a human and number two, I
Speaker 1: don't want to see any more pictures of him. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want to see that anymore. Why why are
Speaker 1: we exposed to that?
Speaker 3: It's awful, not gotten better. That's right now.
Speaker 2: We mentioned the private space walk that took place earlier today,
Speaker 2: the NASA astronaut and two cosmonauts took off today on
Speaker 2: a more traditional space flight.
Speaker 3: It was actually late yesterday.
Speaker 2: They are going to be up there for a six
Speaker 2: month tour of duty. So if you're keeping track at home,
Speaker 2: there are forty seven thousand people on board the International
Speaker 2: Space Station right now. Remember it's only at a capacity
Speaker 2: I think of nine.
Speaker 1: Right, So there were the people that were up there already,
Speaker 1: and then the two people in the dirty underwear Boeing, right.
Speaker 2: So this is the Donald Pettitt is the oldest active
Speaker 2: duty astronaut at the age of sixty nine.
Speaker 3: Wow, sixty nine.
Speaker 2: That guy blasted off in a Soviet capsule, sorry Russian
Speaker 2: capsule yesterday on his way to the International Space Station.
Speaker 2: He alexi ovin chinnin cosmonaut ivon Wagner. They were on
Speaker 2: top of that soy used to rocket yesterday. They are
Speaker 2: going to be. The total number of people in orbit
Speaker 2: at one time is now nineteen on four different spacecraft.
Speaker 1: That's too many. That's like when you have family over
Speaker 1: for the holidays and you find out everyone's coming. You know,
Speaker 1: like you extend the invitation. You're like, you guys can
Speaker 1: come here. Yeah, we'll do Christmas here, and you know
Speaker 1: that maybe at least one of those people will say yes,
Speaker 1: But then they all say us, and then you're just
Speaker 1: stuck with a house full of people and it's awful
Speaker 1: and there's not enough bathrooms.
Speaker 2: And it's not like you can say the kids are
Speaker 2: coming over later, the fam that we have to go, right,
Speaker 2: it's your house, you can't go anywhere.
Speaker 1: The good news, though, is that everybody in your house
Speaker 1: usually has enough clean underwear. Unlike those two astronauts that
Speaker 1: have been there for months after it's told that they
Speaker 1: would go for eight days.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like there's a I feel like NASA,
Speaker 2: maybe SpaceX. They're clearly not Boeing, but because they've screwed
Speaker 2: things up left and right, that they would have some
Speaker 2: high tech underpants underpinning.
Speaker 1: High tech underpinning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that would not require the same amount of laundering.
Speaker 1: Okay, So like maybe like a Jetsons thing where like
Speaker 1: the underwear is this big and then you just tap
Speaker 1: it three times and it goes pooh and it explodes
Speaker 1: into real size underwear.
Speaker 3: Carlford, what I said, did you what did you say?
Speaker 3: You just add water?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: To the math on that, How are you adding water
Speaker 3: to your underwear? I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think they could have some properties
Speaker 1: to where you add water, but they're some sort of
Speaker 1: chemical compound to where what are you pointing to water
Speaker 1: to your like peeing in it?
Speaker 3: Yes, Wow, there's a big bubble that one didn't.
Speaker 1: Well, that's so stupid. I didn't even consider it.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go for the smarter balls jokes. So there
Speaker 2: are there are nineteen people in orbit right now, Nine
Speaker 2: of them aboard.
Speaker 3: The space many of your men.
Speaker 2: Four of them aboard the Polaris drew down crue Dragon,
Speaker 2: three aboard China's space station, and three aboard the Soyuz
Speaker 2: that's making its way towards the international space.
Speaker 1: Seriously, what is the gender breakdown?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I know I know at least two women,
Speaker 2: because there's one. I know there's one woman on the
Speaker 2: Polaris crew and there's one woman, at least one woman
Speaker 2: on the International Space Station.
Speaker 3: Okay, so thank you for asking a great vacation.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was well deserved. You needed a nice long vacation.
Speaker 1: You've had some, You've had a lot going on for
Speaker 1: a while.
Speaker 3: My fireplace isn't done yet, though.
Speaker 1: Oh well, you don't need it, so that's good.
Speaker 3: That is good. That is also very true.
Speaker 2: I do not need it as of just this moment.
Speaker 2: So all that is good news. Stories that we followed today.
Speaker 2: Of course, the campaign continues. Vice President Harrison North Carolina
Speaker 2: polls are tied there. She's going to try to win
Speaker 2: back what Barack Obama won in North Carolina. Trump is
Speaker 2: going to be at in Arizona today, campaigning a state
Speaker 2: that he narrowly lost to Joe Biden four years ago,
Speaker 2: and of course is a must win if he's going
Speaker 2: to take the White House again. Tonight, he's speaking at
Speaker 2: a campaign fundraiser here in the LA area, they say,
Speaker 2: but they haven't said specifically where it is.
Speaker 3: And then tomorrow morning he's got a news conference at
Speaker 3: the golf course there, the Trump Golf Course and Rancho Palace.
Speaker 2: Verdes, before he goes up north to the Bay area
Speaker 2: for another fundraiser hosted by software developer Tom Siebel and
Speaker 2: his wife Stacey.
Speaker 1: Well in the absence of Lucy Jones, Should we bring
Speaker 1: on Debra to talk about LA having an unusually act
Speaker 1: of earthquake year.
Speaker 2: Yes, I think that's not a bad idea as a
Speaker 2: matter of fact, because we understand that Deborah was doing
Speaker 2: her own research on the qualities of water. Is that
Speaker 2: you were doing water quality testing in the midst of
Speaker 2: a seismic event.
Speaker 1: Well, let me just just backpedal a little bit. You're
Speaker 1: putting this in a light situation. Here in California, our
Speaker 1: water pressure is not what you experienced in Tennessee over
Speaker 1: the past couple of weeks. It is very weak, and
Speaker 1: as a woman, it's never more apparent than when you
Speaker 1: are trying to get conditioner out of your heir.
Speaker 3: I see, I see where you're going. I see where
Speaker 3: you're going.
Speaker 1: It takes a long freaking time, and if you don't
Speaker 1: get it all out, Gary, you end.
Speaker 2: Up with sticky, greasy Yeah, I've seen I've seen that
Speaker 2: on you.
Speaker 1: I know, I know it happens to me pretty regularly
Speaker 1: where I think it's all out, but it's not. I've
Speaker 1: just spent four minutes getting the conditioner out. So that's enough,
Speaker 1: that's suitable. Is it all out? No, No, it's not.
Speaker 2: Deborah was in the shower when the earthquake hit this morning.
Speaker 2: It was a four point seven, I believe in Malibu.
Speaker 3: And you said, the dogs reacting.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just put.
Speaker 4: The conditioner on my hair. So that was at the
Speaker 4: very beginning, Shannon. And all of a sudden, the beginning
Speaker 4: of the four minutes, yes, and the I mean, the
Speaker 4: shower door is banging, and I'm like, oh, no, this
Speaker 4: is it because I'm watching everything shake and I'm feeling
Speaker 4: it that Okay, this is it, this is the big one.
Speaker 4: Then I see my dogs they're running up to the
Speaker 4: shower door saying, Mommy.
Speaker 1: Help me, help me.
Speaker 4: And then I'm thinking about you, Shannon, when you said
Speaker 4: that you told Robin Bertolucci one time, Look, you know,
Speaker 4: when the big one hits, don't you want Deborah Mark
Speaker 4: to be in the chair.
Speaker 1: So I thought, oh, yes, this is okay. So for
Speaker 1: everyone who doesn't know this story because I've only told
Speaker 1: it once, I think on the air, Deborah wanted to
Speaker 1: anchor for John and Ken and and there were some
Speaker 1: other people involved. Maybe some other names that were coming
Speaker 1: to the surface. And I remember talking to our boss
Speaker 1: about it, Robin, and I remember saying, and this is
Speaker 1: years ago, right when the big one hits, because that's
Speaker 1: our bosses like, we want to make sure all hands
Speaker 1: on deck when the big one hits, right, we want
Speaker 1: reporters scattered. We have plans, We have all these contingency
Speaker 1: plans in place of where we would broadcast from if
Speaker 1: the Burbank studios crumbled to the ground, and we have
Speaker 1: it all dialed in. It's a concern, right, it should
Speaker 1: be for every news organization. And I said to Robin,
Speaker 1: you're gonna want Deborah Mark in that anchor booth when
Speaker 1: the big one hits. I had no idea that Deborah
Speaker 1: Mark freaks out over a three point one, like, I
Speaker 1: had no clue that this was. It's just funny that
Speaker 1: I used that as my vote for Deborah to be
Speaker 1: the anchor.
Speaker 2: We do use that as kind of the litmus test.
Speaker 2: It's like that when the big one hits whatever, Right,
Speaker 2: when the big one hits, we have to be ready
Speaker 2: for this. And when the big one hits, we have
Speaker 2: to be capable of doing these things and know what
Speaker 2: we're talking about so we use that sort of as
Speaker 2: that that bar that you want to achieve.
Speaker 3: I think that is hilarious.
Speaker 1: So that, yeah, I have no idea.
Speaker 4: I think of I've turned to movie if I beat
Speaker 4: Hill so that I don't disappoint Robin and freak out.
Speaker 2: But I think there's a there's something that is human
Speaker 2: about that is.
Speaker 1: Going to turn the page so much that she's gonna
Speaker 1: take these earthquakes on totally naked. She's gonna be like,
Speaker 1: I don't even need clothes for these earthquakes anymore.
Speaker 2: She's gonna start feeling the shaking, the shower just just disrove.
Speaker 3: At that point.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's so great.
Speaker 3: Are you paying attention to the aftershocks too?
Speaker 4: I self them, Yes, okay, kind of big one at
Speaker 4: my house, and then my husband texted me that there
Speaker 4: was another one that he felt.
Speaker 2: There were two three point four aftershocks so far. One
Speaker 2: of them was at nine thirty seven. One of them
Speaker 2: was a pretty pretty soon well about an hour after
Speaker 2: the original quake, there was a three point four, and
Speaker 2: then at about nine thirty there was a three point four.
Speaker 2: Now there's been about a dozen others that are smaller.
Speaker 2: We're not selling there two, three, two five, stuff like that.
Speaker 1: But can I clear about one thing?
Speaker 3: I We'll see.
Speaker 4: If I knew that the earthquake was gonna stay at
Speaker 4: a four point seven, you know what, I can learn
Speaker 4: to enjoy them. It's the worry of the big one.
Speaker 1: That's what I worry about.
Speaker 2: Well, and there is a moment I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's a few seconds into the shaking where I've seen
Speaker 2: this in Shannon's face a handful of times now, where
Speaker 2: you realize, Okay, that is an earthquake, and then her
Speaker 2: question on her face is is it getting.
Speaker 3: Is it gonna last much longer? Is it?
Speaker 1: It's the earthquake getting even bigger?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 1: But what I've realized, Debra, is that usually in my
Speaker 1: experience with a big one, you can tell right away
Speaker 1: it doesn't like heat up to the big one. Well,
Speaker 1: this one felt really big. Honestly, I really thought this
Speaker 1: was the big one.
Speaker 4: I did, and I thought, great, I'm naked in my
Speaker 4: shower with conditioner in my hair. What the hell am
Speaker 4: I gonna do?
Speaker 3: Your face? I've done everything I could to not make
Speaker 3: it go there.
Speaker 1: And you guys, when you shower your naked.
Speaker 2: No, No, it's more than that it's so much more.
Speaker 1: I think it's the talk about the big one.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, and how yeah, how much larger is it
Speaker 2: going to get?
Speaker 3: And how long is this going to take? Yeah? All
Speaker 3: of that.
Speaker 2: Congratulations you guys, you guys have what was something beautiful?
Speaker 2: I have some breaking news and it was about a
Speaker 2: topic we discussed a couple of times.
Speaker 3: So far on the show today Genitals second Debate.
Speaker 1: Oh get It.
Speaker 2: Stand by BBC is reporting Donald Trump has said he
Speaker 2: will not participate in another debate against Kamala Harris. The
Speaker 2: post on his Truth social platform comes after the Harris
Speaker 2: campaign said she is ready and willing to participate in
Speaker 2: another debate. Following the first meeting of the debate stage
Speaker 2: tuesday night in Philadelphia, Trump wrote, when a prize fighter
Speaker 2: loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth
Speaker 2: are I want a rematch, equating Harris, of course, to
Speaker 2: a boxer who would.
Speaker 1: Have been calling her a prize wing Muhammad Ali a loser,
Speaker 1: because he's saying she's the one who lost, and the
Speaker 1: loser always says I want a rematch.
Speaker 2: He claimed that the polls show that he won the debate,
Speaker 2: but I don't know where those polls are. I haven't
Speaker 2: seen any of it.
Speaker 1: I still think that comparing her to a prize fighter
Speaker 1: is a shedding good light.
Speaker 2: The former president added in this post, all of the
Speaker 2: problems caused by Harris and Biden, actually, he said by
Speaker 2: Kamala and Joe, were discussed in great detail during his
Speaker 2: first debate against Biden in June, and then in his
Speaker 2: second debate against Harris.
Speaker 3: There will be no third debate.
Speaker 2: He ended his posts, and he did it with all
Speaker 2: capital letters, which means he means.
Speaker 1: It is that is that?
Speaker 3: I think that's right.
Speaker 1: That's what I sent you a couple all caps texts.
Speaker 3: Can I read any of those? I feel like you can.
Speaker 3: You can't keep referencing them and then me not.
Speaker 1: It's time for strange science.
Speaker 3: It's like weird science, but strange.
Speaker 1: Do you know who is the world's most monstrous bodybuilder?
Speaker 1: Carl No, No, it's a guy by the name of
Speaker 1: Golam Golam Yeffi Mitcha Kakra.
Speaker 3: Sounds right.
Speaker 1: Golam Jeffi Mitcha Krap dead at thirty six years old.
Speaker 3: That seems a little young.
Speaker 1: He was a renowned bodybuilder known for his massive physique.
Speaker 1: Passed away at the age of thirty six, dubbed the
Speaker 1: most monstrous bodybuilder for his extraordinary size and strength, was
Speaker 1: celebrated in the fitness community. Fans are shocked. They yes,
Speaker 1: thank you whoever said that, because the next sentence I
Speaker 1: was gonna say was the cause has not been disclosed. Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know. He's thirty six years old. He's a
Speaker 1: bodybuilder and he's the biggest one ever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, at thirty six. That's the his heart blew up.
Speaker 2: It sounds like uh and that usually is.
Speaker 1: This is why I try to tell you to stay
Speaker 1: out of the gym so much, right, And I have
Speaker 1: taken that.
Speaker 2: To heart in the last couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: So look at this guy.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, how do you You can't buy shirts like
Speaker 2: that is what it looks like.
Speaker 3: Beatle.
Speaker 1: He looks like a juice, Like his head was shrunken
Speaker 1: by beetlejuice because his arms in his traps are so big.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that just doesn't seem comfortable. Can you sleep like that?
Speaker 2: Maybe that's why he died.
Speaker 3: He didn't. He didn't have a lot of sleep. Wow.
Speaker 2: There is a modified version of nicotine that has shown
Speaker 2: up in vapes.
Speaker 3: Is that how you say it?
Speaker 2: Sure shown up in vape pens, vape pens, vape cartridges, vapes.
Speaker 2: They started showing up about a year and a half ago.
Speaker 2: So some tobacco researchers are worried about this. They said,
Speaker 2: it's the latest in a long history of moves by
Speaker 2: the tobacco company to avoid regulation by modifying nicotine so
Speaker 2: they don't have to classify it as nicotine, they don't
Speaker 2: have to label it as nicotine. They can do all
Speaker 2: of these different things. For example, the Food and Drug
Speaker 2: Administration is looking into a new line of vaping products
Speaker 2: called spree Bar. It contains metatine metatine trademark for its
Speaker 2: synthetic nicotine analog matatine. Because of the narrow definition of
Speaker 2: actual nicotine in the law, you add one chemical structure
Speaker 2: to it, called a methyl group, that allows the company
Speaker 2: to market it as indistinguishable from traditional vaping products nicotine.
Speaker 2: But because it's not nicotine, they could do with it
Speaker 2: whatever they want to and they don't have to go
Speaker 2: through the same regulatory scrutiny that others do.
Speaker 3: Other companies are doing.
Speaker 2: The same similar nicotine analogs in vaping liquids and oral pouches.
Speaker 1: Midst of strange science and what is one of the
Speaker 1: big rules when you go to national parks? If you
Speaker 1: pack it in, you pack it out. Sometimes it's your output.
Speaker 1: You got to take it with you. Sure, right? And
Speaker 1: it just goes to say that you shouldn't leave anything behind,
Speaker 1: especially things like a Cheeto's bag. The US National Park
Speaker 1: has issued a warning about the environmental impact of these
Speaker 1: seemingly small acts like dropping a Cheetos bag, which I
Speaker 1: don't think is a small act if you're in a
Speaker 1: national park, Like what kind of a hole litter is
Speaker 1: in a national park? A bag of Cheetos?
Speaker 3: Are Cheeto's the thing?
Speaker 2: If you went on I went on a couple of
Speaker 2: hikes while I was gone, Cheetos was not my go to.
Speaker 1: No, no nuts, You should bring nuts, trail mix, that
Speaker 1: kind of thing.
Speaker 3: Forgot it.
Speaker 1: I like cats, shoes and peanuts and Eminem's.
Speaker 3: Eminem's not a nut. But I understand what you're saying.
Speaker 1: Oh, I need to tell you my altitude sickness story.
Speaker 3: Oh I can't wait for that one.
Speaker 1: I went on a hike in elevation at Mammot Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: and I almost died, Well not really, but it was
Speaker 1: touch and go there for a minute.
Speaker 3: I knew your husband had plans.
Speaker 1: I know it was brilliant.
Speaker 3: I love that plan.
Speaker 1: He came so close to winning that day.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh that's good. That's good. Yeah, writing that down.
Speaker 1: I'm definitely not hiking with you anyway. So the park
Speaker 1: has highlighted how you in minor littering can cause significant,
Speaker 1: lasting harm to wildlife and ecosystems. So they're urging you
Speaker 1: to be mindful of its waste, and they're world changing
Speaker 1: consequences because that Cheetos bag is no boy.
Speaker 2: No, I did notice we went hiking. We were in
Speaker 2: the Smoky Mountains. I guess that is a national park.
Speaker 3: So there were what do you call them receptacles.
Speaker 2: There's garbage cans at the trail head, basically, but there's
Speaker 2: nothing deep in the forest. They do not care who
Speaker 2: you are. They do not want anything out there, and
Speaker 2: those trails were spotless. Mami good, no litter at all.
Speaker 1: You know, you told me about the Salt and Pepper
Speaker 1: Shaker Museum. You told me about Dollywood, you told me
Speaker 1: about minor league baseball, but you haven't mentioned the National Park,
Speaker 1: which many people say is their favorite.
Speaker 2: It's the most I didn't know this, the most visited
Speaker 2: national park in the country. Yeah, I'm saying that I
Speaker 2: shouldn't say it like a question. It is the most
Speaker 2: visited national park in the country.
Speaker 1: Did you get out on the hiking trails, enjoy the
Speaker 1: nature you see? Did you feel the effects of nature
Speaker 1: on your soul?
Speaker 2: It's funny that there were there were times when my
Speaker 2: wife and I were it was just the two of
Speaker 2: us that were hiking, and I didn't take her to
Speaker 2: places where I would push her off a cliff or
Speaker 2: anything like.
Speaker 3: That, like your husband does, well, you like her, I do.
Speaker 2: She's fun There were you could go forty five minutes
Speaker 2: and not say.
Speaker 3: A word to each other. Sure, because we're just.
Speaker 2: Looking around, and we're looking around at the there's turkeys,
Speaker 2: and I'm certain we saw bears.
Speaker 1: I can't handle yap. And on the trails, first of all,
Speaker 1: i'm out of wind.
Speaker 3: That was it.
Speaker 2: The first one we did was two and a half,
Speaker 2: was three miles in and three miles out, and it
Speaker 2: was up the whole way. It was going up and
Speaker 2: inclined the entire way to the waterfall.
Speaker 1: And then the other thing is you're out of wind.
Speaker 1: And then also you're usually like in a single file
Speaker 1: line and maybe somebody's like three or four steps ahead
Speaker 1: of you, so anything you say, they don't say. So
Speaker 1: you're like, oh, that's a pretty tree, and I was like, what,
Speaker 1: that's a pretty tree?
Speaker 2: You know? Well, And this is the one that we
Speaker 2: were on was technical, I didn't want to say technical.
Speaker 3: It wasn't like it was.
Speaker 2: Rock climbing or anything, but it was very bumpy, a
Speaker 2: lot of tree roots and a lot of big rocks.
Speaker 2: So if you're standing too close to the person in
Speaker 2: front of you, you can't see what's coming up, and
Speaker 2: they'll they misstep and you're immediately going to fall on
Speaker 2: top of them. So we had to be spaced out
Speaker 2: a few feet fire you know, ten twelve feet whatever
Speaker 2: it was, so I could see what was coming and
Speaker 2: I was watching her walk away the whole time.
Speaker 1: And also if she fell, you didn't want her to
Speaker 1: crush you there.
Speaker 2: And then there was a time where you have to
Speaker 2: shit me down some rocks to get to one waterfall
Speaker 2: and she's like, you go first, so I have something
Speaker 2: to fall on.
Speaker 3: Oh that's very nice.
Speaker 2: Like I really thought she meant it. We were talking
Speaker 2: earlier about oh it's.
Speaker 1: Time to say thank you and to move on with.
Speaker 3: Our day, I feel like time flew.
Speaker 2: Work is good to come back to after a two
Speaker 2: week vacation, isn't it. It is great you've been listening
