Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
Speaker 1: A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
Speaker 1: demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: White House National Security Advisor Mike Waltz is apparently set
Speaker 2: to leave the administration, according to a couple of people
Speaker 2: talk to the AP also being reported by CBS ABC
Speaker 2: The Wall Street Journal. Waltz was the one that came
Speaker 2: under scrutiny in March after the revelations that he had
Speaker 2: added Jeffrey Goldberg, an editor for The Atlantic magazine, to
Speaker 2: a private text chain on the encrypted messaging app Signal.
Speaker 2: Laura Lomer, apparently one of the allies of President Trump
Speaker 2: with no real official government position, has also targeted him,
Speaker 2: telling Trump in a recent Noble Office conversation that Trump
Speaker 2: needs to purge aids who she believes are not sufficiently
Speaker 2: loyal to the make America Great Again agenda?
Speaker 1: Are we just going to one more than I'm allotted?
Speaker 2: I just want everybody to follow along with the idiocy
Speaker 2: of people saying I've listened to you for years and
Speaker 2: I know everything you've ever said.
Speaker 3: You know, you guys have no credibility about talking about
Speaker 3: the way someone speaks or the way they think, what
Speaker 3: about Biden. I listen to you guys for years, and
Speaker 3: you guys already ever said anything about abuse?
Speaker 1: Sir, did you make fun of your grandpa with dementia?
Speaker 4: Me?
Speaker 1: Neither? Or I'm done with that.
Speaker 5: Okay, We're done.
Speaker 1: Ye close the door.
Speaker 2: From this point on it is going to be what
Speaker 2: would be Shannon's stripper song after that.
Speaker 5: That's all I want to pals with it.
Speaker 1: I'm open for that kind of feedback. We are dealing
Speaker 1: with in Los Angeles and nearly billion dollar budget shortfall,
Speaker 1: and now we're hearing that some of the job cuts
Speaker 1: are going to land squarely with the LAPD. Michael Monks
Speaker 1: has been following this all the detritus that is downtown LA.
Speaker 1: One was on there. Here's my issue, just being an
Speaker 1: observer for twenty years here in LA. If you cut
Speaker 1: jobs from the LAPD, Michael, it doesn't take away work
Speaker 1: from the LAPD, which means you're dealing with something that
Speaker 1: the LAPD knows all too well. And that little thing
Speaker 1: is called overtime, which is going to cost the city
Speaker 1: a hell of a lot more than those positions. Am
Speaker 1: I wrong?
Speaker 5: Hopefully not according to the city.
Speaker 6: I mean or or hopefully so according to the city,
Speaker 6: because it's not just jobs are being eliminated, the overtime
Speaker 6: budget is also being slashed.
Speaker 1: Impossible.
Speaker 6: All of these things are an attempt to help close
Speaker 6: that one billion dollar budget shortfall. Now, when the budget
Speaker 6: was first proposed by Mayor Bass a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 6: it was noted, yes, there are layoffs in the LAPD proposed,
Speaker 6: but no sworn officers.
Speaker 5: So okay, a sigh of relief.
Speaker 6: Maybe maybe they're talking about, you know, somebody who answers
Speaker 6: the phones as a secretary or that type of person,
Speaker 6: a driver. But apparently to the chief, these are significant
Speaker 6: roles that do directly involve themselves in justice in solving cases.
Speaker 6: And like you said, if those folks are gone, it
Speaker 6: will be sworn officers that have to fill those roles.
Speaker 6: Chief McDonald's spoke to the La City Council Budget Committee
Speaker 6: yesterday and here's a little bit of what he had
Speaker 6: to say about it.
Speaker 5: Give me, I'm sorry, I could have set that up
Speaker 5: a little bit better. Here you go.
Speaker 7: The mayor's proposed budget includes a staggering reduction of four
Speaker 7: hundred and three civilian positions, representing fifteen point two percent
Speaker 7: of our civilian workforce. These are not faceless numbers. There
Speaker 7: are men and women who've devoted their lives to public service,
Speaker 7: often behind the scenes, with specialized skills, ensuring that our
Speaker 7: officers have the tools, data, and operational support they need
Speaker 7: to keep our city safe. Their work is essential and
Speaker 7: their loss is not just a human one, but one
Speaker 7: that will be felt by every neighborhood in our city.
Speaker 1: I have a question here. Tracy Park council member was
Speaker 1: quoted as saying that officers would be taken off the
Speaker 1: street to fill jobs like criminalists who handle DNA, gun
Speaker 1: duy evidence things like that. Those are different things. Those
Speaker 1: are different.
Speaker 5: Jobs they are.
Speaker 1: Don't take a patrol officer and make hey or she
Speaker 1: a criminalist in the lab.
Speaker 6: She was joined by a couple other members of council
Speaker 6: a timmic Oscar and John Lee yesterday before the Chief
Speaker 6: spoke to you know, deride these proposed cuts in the department.
Speaker 6: She may be technically incorrect on who would fill those roles,
Speaker 6: but the chief did say it would be sworn officers
Speaker 6: who are pulled off the streets to do some of
Speaker 6: these desk jobs. He's talking about DNA ballistics analysis, so
Speaker 6: that's directly involved in criminal analysis and investigation, but it
Speaker 6: off toying evidence and that sort of thing. So vehicle
Speaker 6: mechanics are also in the chopping block, so when the
Speaker 6: cruisers go down. We ran into this problem, yeah, during
Speaker 6: the fires with some trucks that were parked and not
Speaker 6: in use because they say we don't have enough guys
Speaker 6: to fix the So that might be looming on the
Speaker 6: horizon for the police department. He says the chief that
Speaker 6: we might have to shut down facilities, including jails, if
Speaker 6: we don't have this type of workforce.
Speaker 1: There's a lot of crying wolf, isn't there when any
Speaker 1: department is cut into But we need this or else,
Speaker 1: and then they throw a worst case scenario at you
Speaker 1: to scare you into them being able to keep the jobs.
Speaker 1: But the LAPD right now is kind of there when
Speaker 1: it comes to they they're already running very low at
Speaker 1: the LAPD. It's kind of like the same thing with
Speaker 1: the animal services that we talked about. They're already running
Speaker 1: at a deficit. These aren't bloated agencies.
Speaker 6: I don't think on paper they want about ten thousand officers.
Speaker 6: They've got somewhere between eighty five hundred and eighty eight hundred,
Speaker 6: depending on how many retirements have common during whichever month.
Speaker 6: They've had a hard time filling the ranks. And they
Speaker 6: are budgeted for about ten thousand officers, so they get
Speaker 6: the money asigned, but they have not been able to
Speaker 6: fill the ranks, and so at some point a question
Speaker 6: has to be asked, if your recruitment efforts aren't working,
Speaker 6: what do you need to do as a department, either
Speaker 6: to improve that effort or to improve your efficiencies to
Speaker 6: better deliver protective services to the people of Los Angeles
Speaker 6: with the resources that you have currently. One question that
Speaker 6: was raised by council Member Eunisses Hernandez very anti police department,
Speaker 6: especially with their budget. She wanted them to ground their
Speaker 6: helicopters and Chief McDonald explained that the helicopter does fly
Speaker 6: about twenty hours a day, and she says is that necessary?
Speaker 6: And he says it's necessary because it's easier to have
Speaker 6: it already in the air than to call it off
Speaker 6: a building should it be needed. But that's a question
Speaker 6: that was raised yesterday.
Speaker 1: Sure that I understand that question.
Speaker 6: Absolutely, and so we'll see more of those questions you
Speaker 6: mentioned Animal Service. All of these departments are coming through
Speaker 6: to lead their case about why these cuts would be
Speaker 6: detrimental to their various departments. It might be departments that
Speaker 6: you never deal with. The arts and culture departments will
Speaker 6: come in and say, you know, we won't be able
Speaker 6: to have the events that mean so much too whatever.
Speaker 1: The people will die, will die.
Speaker 5: Without that painting on the walls.
Speaker 6: So today, the homeless spending is on the agenda and
Speaker 6: that's going on right now at City Hall and I'll
Speaker 6: have those reports throughout the remainder of the day. But
Speaker 6: just to put a pen in this for you, you mentioned overtime.
Speaker 6: The mayor is proposed reducing the overtime budget in the
Speaker 6: LAPD by thirty six million dollars, and the Chief says
Speaker 6: that means less deployment to target areas like Nis Beach,
Speaker 6: MacArthur Park, the RV Homeless Camp Task Force. So you
Speaker 6: will see fewer people on the streets because of this,
Speaker 6: even if officers aren't being laid off.
Speaker 5: Thankless job. Jim McDonald has a thankless job, right.
Speaker 1: Well, well, I mean, let's let's not pretend that overtime
Speaker 1: hasn't been overused by people who protect and serve. That
Speaker 1: is as long as that has been an occupation. It
Speaker 1: has been overused, but it is necessary, especially when the
Speaker 1: department is strained unfortunately. So all right, Michael Monks, we've
Speaker 1: got a lifeguard emergency and you were a lifeguard rag Doll.
Speaker 5: I think rag Doll would be your stripper song Aerosmith.
Speaker 5: Oh really, that's a good one.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I think you'd be great at it. Yes, I was
Speaker 5: a ragged I was a lifeguard. Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 5: Oh, you know it.
Speaker 1: I don't like it. I don't know.
Speaker 5: That's helmer.
Speaker 1: Got a cute that was quick, pretty quick?
Speaker 5: Yep.

Speaker 2: thousand bucks when we come back.

Speaker 2: How far can we go? One of the big stories
Speaker 2: today broke I love.
Speaker 1: Guys in the same room with me?
Speaker 2: At the same time, White House National Security Advisor Mike
Speaker 2: Waltz is expected to leave the Trump administration. It's been
Speaker 2: reported in a couple of different major media outlets. This
Speaker 2: developed what would be the first major staff shakeup of
Speaker 2: the second Trump term.
Speaker 5: He come and came under fireback in March.
Speaker 2: If you remember when when Mike Waltz added journalist Jeffrey
Speaker 2: Goldberg to a private text chain that was discussing planning
Speaker 2: for a military operation against who the militants in Yemen.
Speaker 2: Nothing official from the White House. The President did speak
Speaker 2: at a National Prayer Day event outside the White House
Speaker 2: in the Rose Garden today but did not make comments
Speaker 2: about Mike Waltz. So we'll talk more about it we
Speaker 2: get into swamp Watch at the top of the hour.

Speaker 1: We have talked about the algae bloom that has taken
Speaker 1: a toll on local beaches, a lot of dead animals,
Speaker 1: sea lions, dolphins. It has been awful and now we're
Speaker 1: seeing lifeguards have to take mental health leaves because of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they say that a lot of them have feelings.
Speaker 2: They care about marine life. That's why they chose a
Speaker 2: job like being lifeguards. One of the reasons they chose
Speaker 2: the profession. And when you see dolphins sea lions come ashore,
Speaker 2: they're still alive. They do the best they can to
Speaker 2: make them comfortable, but obviously it doesn't work out many times,
Speaker 2: and that can take a toll.
Speaker 1: Michael Monks is from Kentucky and a.
Speaker 5: Lot of dolphins, sea lions, And I got it, Pricks.
Speaker 2: You know I was a lifeguard. You were deep in
Speaker 2: pig pig butt hollow.
Speaker 1: How does that work?
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's the county seat. I'm surprised at your geographic knowledge. Yeah, well,
Speaker 6: being a lifeguard is a pretty sweet gig in general.
Speaker 6: Now these are you know, the beach lifeguards. You start
Speaker 6: to get into like, oh, where was I lifeguard? I
Speaker 6: was a lifeguard on campus. I don't want to brag
Speaker 6: about my undergraduate education, but it was at Northern Kentucky University.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, amazing and the aquatic Center. I was
Speaker 6: also in the summers a lifeguard at a country club.
Speaker 6: And then the summer after I graduated, I couldn't get
Speaker 6: off of Kentucky fast enough, so I worked at a
Speaker 6: sleep away summer camp in the Poconos. And so I
Speaker 6: was a lifeguard at the pool there and also the
Speaker 6: dreaded lake.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 6: Yeahs die, not that I'm aware of.
Speaker 5: There were a couple of floaters, but I don't think
Speaker 5: it was on my shift.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I feel like whenever there's a camp these days,
Speaker 1: whether it's a book or a movie, someone dies.
Speaker 5: This was a summer camp.
Speaker 6: You got the vibes because all the movies are shot
Speaker 6: at those places and they all look the same. And
Speaker 6: that was all I could think. Not a good choice
Speaker 6: on my part, Not a good I should have just
Speaker 6: left town and moved to LA or something.
Speaker 5: But I don't know. I got a memoir out of.
Speaker 1: It, Yes, story exactly, So go on. Sorry.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: And so when you're that kind of lifeguard me that
Speaker 6: you know, this is the casual after class or in
Speaker 6: the summertime, it's a pretty good gig. Very rarely are
Speaker 6: you needed to do anything to save someone. It happens,
Speaker 6: and you're there for that purpose. Mostly you're doing the
Speaker 6: mundane maintenance of the pool, changing the chlorine and making
Speaker 6: sure that the people to stop running. Stop running is
Speaker 6: what you say the most. No running, you know. And
Speaker 6: you're trolling the whistle to the left and then you're
Speaker 6: trolling it to the right, and then your shift is over.
Speaker 6: It's a great gig and you get a tan if
Speaker 6: it's outside. These are pro lifeguards who are dealing with
Speaker 6: significant tragedy right that they can't save. When you are lifeguard,
Speaker 6: you were trained to save, right, and these are animals.
Speaker 1: Give mouth to mouth to a dolphin that's succumbed to algae.
Speaker 5: No, you don't want to put your mouth mouth to blowhole.
Speaker 2: Probably mouth to blowhole is that the way it would
Speaker 2: go in I've never tried, sounds like you have, Okay,
Speaker 2: I have, but it didn't work.
Speaker 6: Well, you're talking about some beloved creatures, the dolphin, the
Speaker 6: sea lion. He's trying to put the trade on the trail,
Speaker 6: the birds, and.
Speaker 1: You're talking about some beloved animals.
Speaker 6: It's not a rat you ran over in downtown l A. Okay,
Speaker 6: these are animals that you We've talked about this before, Shannon.
Speaker 6: There are tears of feelings for animals, right. Depending on
Speaker 6: the type of animal, you have different feelings a pigeon.
Speaker 1: Ken Champeau is the architect of the animal hierarchy. He
Speaker 1: famously would say, I would not eat a horse.
Speaker 5: So there's not really like a bold position.
Speaker 1: No, but that was the top of his higher you know.
Speaker 1: He didn't want, you know, animals, and further down you
Speaker 1: would eat them, but up at the top you would
Speaker 1: not eat.
Speaker 6: I think you go farther down, I wouldn't eat those
Speaker 6: animals either. I wouldn't need a rat. I'd need a
Speaker 6: horse before I eat a rat, would you. I would
Speaker 6: eat a horse burger before you gave me a rat sandwich.
Speaker 1: I mean from a morality perspective is where they hierarchy
Speaker 1: comes from. The things you'd feel bad about eating. You
Speaker 1: would feel bad about eating a you wouldn't want to,
Speaker 1: but if it came down to it, you went and
Speaker 1: feel like, oh it's so cute.
Speaker 5: I don't know that I.
Speaker 1: Would more in the majestic animal. Yeah, I might more
Speaker 1: eat a majestic animal.
Speaker 6: I think about my cat this way though, like, what
Speaker 6: if it came, what if the apocalypse comes?
Speaker 1: The cat will eat you before you eat the cat.
Speaker 2: He will try and has tried. I've got to scratching
Speaker 2: my arm right now, on your forearm. You know that's
Speaker 2: where they go?
Speaker 5: Is that where they go? But you die?
Speaker 2: That's the first thing your cat. It's not even that
Speaker 2: flesh groom. That's not the good meat. I got better
Speaker 2: meat than forearms.
Speaker 1: Now that's where cats go.
Speaker 5: Like the forearm must be tender or something.
Speaker 1: What's your cat's name?
Speaker 5: Milo, Milo Monks? Like you said, he was trying to
Speaker 5: put the show back on the tracks.
Speaker 1: Well, all right, thanks Michael.
Speaker 5: Goodbye, goodbye. Remember remember no running.
Speaker 1: Twirl to the right, twirl to the left.
Speaker 5: Shifts over. Garry and Channon will continue in just a moment.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary Ian Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: I've everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Stories We are following
Speaker 1: for you today? Is it the fan that fell off
Speaker 1: the no?
Speaker 5: No, no, brooks Lee. Oh kid who used to play
Speaker 5: at cal Poly Samuels Obispo's now playing for the Twins
Speaker 5: and hit a double.
Speaker 1: Oh thanks. I saw him play a bunch of times
Speaker 1: up at cal Poly. They keep playing the fan falling
Speaker 1: out of the stands thing. That's what I was wondering.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, No.
Speaker 2: My concern is they're going to start putting nets up
Speaker 2: in the outfield so people don't fall.
Speaker 1: I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. Elon Musk is
Speaker 1: defending the work of Doge as he prepares to scale
Speaker 1: back from his role in government spend more time at
Speaker 1: his businesses. It did an interview with reporters at the
Speaker 1: White House yesterday giving hazy answers about the work he'd
Speaker 1: been doing, and Doge's future seemed taken aback by the
Speaker 1: backlash he has encountered. He has estimated he's cut one
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty billions so far and hard to get
Speaker 1: anywhere near close to his original stated goal of one
Speaker 1: trillion dollars. He said, it's sort of how much pain
Speaker 1: is the cabinet in Congress? Willing to take.
Speaker 2: Speaking of Elon Musk, the Wall Street Journal ran with
Speaker 2: a report today that Tesla was Tesla's board was looking
Speaker 2: at replacing Elon Musk. Board members reached out to executive
Speaker 2: search firms to work on a formal process. Elon Musk
Speaker 2: came out and said it is an extremely bad breach
Speaker 2: of ethics that the Wall Street Journal would even publish
Speaker 2: a deliberately false article and failed to include an unequivocal
Speaker 2: denial beforehand by the Tesla board of directors.
Speaker 1: Well, different influencers are popping up all over the place
Speaker 1: with different takes on things, whether it is true crime,
Speaker 1: influencers on TikTok as they do their makeup and pimp products,
Speaker 1: or what have you. God is no different influencers have
Speaker 1: popped up preaching about God and they are not preachers.
Speaker 1: Girls Gone Bible is what we're referring to. It is
Speaker 1: at the top of the religious podcast charts on Spotify,
Speaker 1: more than twenty million listens in just two years. Girls
Speaker 1: Gone Bible. These are a couple of women who have
Speaker 1: no formal training in ministry, but they have become unlikely
Speaker 1: religious authorities to a fan base larger than that of
Speaker 1: many of the nation's most popular preachers. It's a two
Speaker 1: microphone megachurch. They call it speaking to the nation's evangelical
Speaker 1: teen and tween girls. Will Hart is a pastor and
Speaker 1: director of Iris Global, a church with missions all over
Speaker 1: the world. He told these women, you're reaching more people
Speaker 1: than I've reached in twenty five years of ministry. He said,
Speaker 1: is that weird for you? It's weird for me, but
Speaker 1: it's beautiful.
Speaker 2: One of them is an Albanian immigrant. Came to the
Speaker 2: United States at the age of two, spent her high
Speaker 2: school years in Clearwater, Florida, graduated in twenty fourteen, and
Speaker 2: moved here to LA to study acting. She did get
Speaker 2: a couple of little roles, but she supported herself waiting tables.
Speaker 5: Everybody's heard heard that story before.
Speaker 2: Angela Haleiley and then Ariel Ritzma also came to LA
Speaker 2: right out of high school. She came to LA from Massachusetts,
Speaker 2: small town right outside of Boston, and after a rough
Speaker 2: start sleeping on the blow up mattress in a small
Speaker 2: apartment off of Hollywood Boulevard. Again, very common story. I'm
Speaker 2: sure everybody's got a version of that, she found an agent.
Speaker 2: She started acting in theater productions and started modeling, developed
Speaker 2: a small social media following and doing brand deals to
Speaker 2: pay the bills.
Speaker 1: Their fans say they're drawn in by these women's unique backgrounds.
Speaker 1: Both raised Catholic, journey to faith began with alcoholism, OCD,
Speaker 1: panic disorder, depression, and anxiety, all of which they just
Speaker 1: discuss on the podcast.
Speaker 2: If the message is it's a little uncomfortable, because I
Speaker 2: think that there's a certain amount of reverence, if that's
Speaker 2: the right word that should go with a discussion of faith.
Speaker 5: I think you're honest about it.
Speaker 1: I think whatever leads you to God leads you to God.
Speaker 1: And right, who are as anybody to say you didn't
Speaker 1: get to God the right way? Right? The point is
Speaker 1: you got to God. I think most people would argue.
Speaker 2: I think there's also that interesting moment when what turns
Speaker 2: what starts as just a normal conversation. One of them
Speaker 2: says to the other, you know what other people would
Speaker 2: like to listen to us have this conversation.
Speaker 1: Each ninety minute Girls Gone Bible episode generally follows the
Speaker 1: same format. Yeah, the first few minutes like a slumber party.
Speaker 1: They're catching up, they're joking around. Maybe it's a new haircut,
Speaker 1: or something, and then they launch into the topic of
Speaker 1: the day. It may be shame, it may be being single,
Speaker 1: it may be doubt or modesty. They read relevant passages
Speaker 1: from the Bible. Occasionally they will interview a guest. I
Speaker 1: love the idea of making the Bible applicable for your
Speaker 1: life and for things that make it more I don't know, applicable.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 1: It is also sometimes you read it and it's hard
Speaker 1: to relate to it, especially if you're a young person
Speaker 1: and you're like, what the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 1: I'm worried about this or this and this. And if
Speaker 1: you can take something from the Bible and make it
Speaker 1: make sense for what you're going through in life, I
Speaker 1: think that is a good thing.
Speaker 2: Well, and they discuss, among other things, I mean the
Speaker 2: hot topics because they're women, often deal with sexuality or looks.
Speaker 2: Angela says, I've leaned into using sexuality or looks as
Speaker 2: a means of fulfillment, only to find myself deeply, deeply disempowered.
Speaker 2: The world tells you this is what's empowered, and she says,
Speaker 2: we come to find out it is not that.
Speaker 1: This is why I tell you all the time that
Speaker 1: you don't need to come in here showing you know.
Speaker 5: As much leg as I do.
Speaker 1: It's you. It's your breasts that I feel like should
Speaker 1: be more private. You know, you don't need to show
Speaker 1: them around here to make people like you. You can.
Speaker 1: We know that they're there, We know that you know
Speaker 1: you're dealing with more than most, and good for you.
Speaker 1: But like that's not why we like you. We like
Speaker 1: you for who you are.
Speaker 5: I'm dealing with more than most.
Speaker 1: Sometimes the Good Lord blesses us in different ways. And
Speaker 1: the Good Lord saw your chest and he put his
Speaker 1: little magic wand on it, and he will.
Speaker 5: Two poofsoof.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: How about them Dodgers, My goodness, just bearing I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess it's more about the Marlins, isn't it. They've
Speaker 1: head back to back games of racking up the offense there.
Speaker 1: Austin Barnes had a hell of a night last night.
Speaker 5: Dodgers beat the Marlins twelve to seven last night.
Speaker 1: Tomorrow, Dodgers take on the Braves in Hotlanta, first pitch
Speaker 1: at four fifteen. Listen to all Dodger games on AM
Speaker 1: five seventy LA Sports and stream all Dodger games n
Speaker 1: HD on the iHeartRadio app. A keyword AM five seventy
Speaker 1: la sports Zen. She handcrafted sushi made fresh daily at
Speaker 1: routes near the deli counter. You know who I heard
Speaker 1: Conway talking about who loves that Zen? She sushi is
Speaker 1: Tim Kates?
Speaker 5: Really so Tim.
Speaker 1: Kate's always walking around here with sushi sushi. But then
Speaker 1: maybe that's an afternoon treat for Tim Kates because we
Speaker 1: usually see him in the morning.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't see him with sushi when he's eating
Speaker 2: chili dogs. Lakers lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Lakers are out,
Speaker 2: They're awful. How could they be awful with Lebron James
Speaker 2: and Luka Doncic don Dunkic, don'tche.
Speaker 5: Luca. Lebron and Luca were supposed to be the saviors.
Speaker 1: Is that right?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Lebron is on borrowed time.
Speaker 5: Lebron's getting up there. Yeah, it's ironic to be hearing
Speaker 5: that from a woman in the autumn of her life.
Speaker 1: What I'm sorry, what I'm not you.
Speaker 2: I was just preferring if there was a woman who
Speaker 2: said that about Lebron is the old one, and then
Speaker 2: she was older than Lebron, it'd be kind of a.
Speaker 1: Well, he's playing a professional sport that men half of
Speaker 1: his age play, Yeah, like his son, Like I interviewed
Speaker 1: him when he was seventeen coming into the league, which
Speaker 1: was cool.
Speaker 5: How old were you?
Speaker 1: Probably twenty one a whole I'm not playing a professional
Speaker 1: sport at this age. I'm just living my life. I
Speaker 1: think I'm still allowed to do that.
Speaker 5: Even that's taking its tool. Guy.
Speaker 2: You have probably seen the video of this a man
Speaker 2: a critic condition after he dropped from the stands to
Speaker 2: the ground at a Pittsburgh Pirates game in Pittsburgh last night.
Speaker 2: Guys in critical condition at this point. They're saying it
Speaker 2: was an accidental twenty twenty one foot drop from his
Speaker 2: seat onto the field of play. He actually fell onto
Speaker 2: the warning track out right center field. It happened during
Speaker 2: a play. I think it was Andrew McCutcheon had hit
Speaker 2: a ball through the left side of the infield, so
Speaker 2: it's going to left field. This guy was in right
Speaker 2: center field, so everybody's attention, at least everybody on the field,
Speaker 2: their attention is away from him, and he kind of
Speaker 2: falls behind the outfielders and it's an awful looking fall.
Speaker 2: From the video from sort of behind home plate, you
Speaker 2: can see it happen where it's hard to tell if
Speaker 2: he's getting up to jump up to celebrate the fact
Speaker 2: that that was a base hit, because he kind of
Speaker 2: pushes himself up on the railing and then immediately goes
Speaker 2: forward over. It didn't look like anybody touched him or
Speaker 2: pushed him or anything like that.
Speaker 1: Was he drinking yeah, probably, yeah, But.
Speaker 2: The trainers for both teams immediately ran out to right
Speaker 2: center field and they had to get the stretcher out there.
Speaker 2: You could see the players were pretty shaken up by
Speaker 2: all of this because the guy was not moving when
Speaker 2: they got out there. It looked like he landed head next.
Speaker 1: I first, yeah, I didn't think that he was going
Speaker 1: to survive that fall by the look of it.
Speaker 2: The detectives from the Pittsburgh Police Department's Violent Crime Unit
Speaker 2: are leading the investigation into this, and again it doesn't
Speaker 2: appear that they're going to find anything.
Speaker 1: It's an accident.
Speaker 5: Full story.
Speaker 1: We will get to my favorite story of the day
Speaker 1: coming up later in the show. It is the Great
Speaker 1: Conclave secret. What do the cardinals the would be popes eat?
Speaker 1: Apparently I did not know this, but apparently for more
Speaker 1: than seven hundred and fifty years there have been in
Speaker 1: place strict rules that guard what cardinals can and cannot eat.
Speaker 1: Why why do they have weak stomachs?
Speaker 5: You ask, do they have weak stomachs or something?
Speaker 1: It's to prevent hidden messages stopped inside chicken ravioli and
Speaker 1: napkinss messages from whom some sort of peasant on the
Speaker 1: street that wants to tell which cardinal which pope to pick.
Speaker 1: I mean fascinating, right, very weird. Well, I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: it's not just the cardinals who There's a lot of
Speaker 1: politics that surround the picking of a pope. It's not
Speaker 1: just about God and religion. There's a lot of things
Speaker 1: that go into it. You got to follow the money too.
Speaker 1: Don't forget about the money.
Speaker 5: Involved, the idea that the food would be the vehicle
Speaker 5: for these messages.
Speaker 1: Dude, well, how else are you going to get a
Speaker 1: message to the cardinals? Great question, they're sequestered.
