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: It's time for swamp Watch. I'm a politician, which means
Speaker 2: I'm a cheat and a liar, and when I'm not
Speaker 2: kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops.
Speaker 3: Here we got the real problem is that our leaders
Speaker 3: are done.
Speaker 2: The other side never quits. So what I'm not going anywhere?
Speaker 3: So that is how you.
Speaker 4: Train the squad.
Speaker 2: I can imagine what can be and be unburdened by
Speaker 2: what has been. You know, Americans have always been going
Speaker 2: at President. They're not stupid.
Speaker 5: A political flunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.
Speaker 2: Whether people voted for.
Speaker 6: You were not.
Speaker 2: Swamp watch, they're all counter on.
Speaker 1: Well, we've been talking about China and the standoff between
Speaker 1: the Trump administration and Shi Jinping when it comes to trade.
Speaker 1: We most recently talked about the President hosting a Japan
Speaker 1: with his economic advisors yesterday, where Shi Jinping was in
Speaker 1: Southeast Asia probably still Malaysia yesterday. When it comes to
Speaker 1: wooing people to join their perspective teams, the CATO Institute
Speaker 1: has long followed the relations between the United States and China,
Speaker 1: and with particular how we're going to navigate what could
Speaker 1: be a urination match of epic proportions between these two countries.
Speaker 5: Right now, Clark Packard is a research fellow in the
Speaker 5: Herbert Stifle Center for Trade Policy Studies at the Cato Institute,
Speaker 5: and he joins us now.
Speaker 2: Clark, thanks for taking time for us again today.
Speaker 3: Yeah, thanks thanks for having me. I'm glad to be on.
Speaker 5: Let's get sort of a ten thousand foot level look
Speaker 5: if we can from you about where we stand with
Speaker 5: this burgeoning trade war between specifically between the United States
Speaker 5: and China.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, I think the Trump administration is
Speaker 3: right to point to a number of bad trade policies,
Speaker 3: trade and investment policies that come from Beijing. You know, China,
Speaker 3: for example, steals intellectual property, it hacks into cyber networks,
Speaker 3: et cetera, et cetera. So at this point, though, we're
Speaker 3: at one hundred and forty five percent tariffs basically on
Speaker 3: all imports from China except for certain computer and electronic equipment.
Speaker 3: And then China has imposed equivalent tariffs on American products.
Speaker 3: But China also doesn't buy as many products from the
Speaker 3: United States as we buy from them, and so China
Speaker 3: is having to switch some of its retaliation to focus
Speaker 3: on maybe services. So legal consulting financial services. Beijing ordered
Speaker 3: Chinese airlines not to take any further orders or deliveries
Speaker 3: from Boeing, for example. So I think, you know, the
Speaker 3: two sides are sort of dug in, and I don't
Speaker 3: know if there's going to be an off ramp. I
Speaker 3: know that that, you know, the Trump administration has indicated
Speaker 3: that it would like to talk, but so far nothing
Speaker 3: has has materialized from that.
Speaker 1: Some of the communities that stood up and voted Trump
Speaker 1: are communities that feel forgotten by this country. And if
Speaker 1: you go back to history for a lesson, you will
Speaker 1: find out that it kind of began when Congress voted
Speaker 1: to make things nice with China. When it came to
Speaker 1: trade relations at the turn of the century, imports from
Speaker 1: China nearly tripling from nineteen ninety nine to two thousand
Speaker 1: and five, and the factories here in America just could
Speaker 1: not compete, giving birth to the term the China Shock.
Speaker 1: It wiped out millions of jobs in the years that followed,
Speaker 1: and a lot of these communities that were hard hit. Well,
Speaker 1: now it's kind of it seems to be adding insult
Speaker 1: to injury with the very communities that hoisted Trump into
Speaker 1: the White House.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right. I mean, I do think there's something
Speaker 3: to the China shock, right, like that regions that were
Speaker 3: more exposed to Chinese import competition had worse labor market
Speaker 3: outcomes than those regions that were less exposed to Chinese
Speaker 3: import competition. And you're right that that something like you know,
Speaker 3: the numbers vary, but something about a million and a
Speaker 3: half manufacturing jobs were lost over a ten to fifteen
Speaker 3: year period, and that certainly hurt a lot of communities.
Speaker 3: But you know, I think that obviously the genies out
Speaker 3: of the bottle, and there's nothing we can kind of
Speaker 3: do to go back. And I'm you know, I'm skeptical
Speaker 3: that if we erect big tariff walls around the United States,
Speaker 3: even just for China, you know, just from Chinese products,
Speaker 3: it would have much of an impact. But yeah, I
Speaker 3: mean I certainly think that a lot of farming communities
Speaker 3: are going to be hit with foreign retaliation and yeah,
Speaker 3: and increased costs for American consumers. So, you know, I
Speaker 3: think that that you know, there was very real frustration
Speaker 3: and very sort of righteous anger. But I just don't
Speaker 3: think that the past followed by politicians today is gonna,
Speaker 3: you know, unwind and undo what's already been done.
Speaker 5: Clark, can you hang on for another segment? I have
Speaker 5: a couple more questions that I'd love to get to.
Speaker 5: All Right, Clark Packard again, research fellow for Cato Institute
Speaker 5: and a writer. You've seen his stuff, You've seen him
Speaker 5: on TV as well. We'll talk with Clark a little
Speaker 5: bit more about what's going on in terms of tariffs
Speaker 5: and the burgeoning trade war that we're staring down the
Speaker 5: barrel of.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: I love this look at the Chiron on CBS. It
Speaker 1: says do not drive high on four to twenty and
Speaker 1: then the image with someone lighting.
Speaker 2: Up a bowl of pot. Isn't that Easter?
Speaker 1: Do we need the news to tell us not to
Speaker 1: drive high? And it is Easter? It falls on Easter,
Speaker 1: So you've got Jesus.
Speaker 2: And weed and Hitler. Hitler that's his birthday, right if
Speaker 2: you say so. I don't know.
Speaker 5: We were talking swamp watch stuff that goes on in DC,
Speaker 5: and the biggest story of the last couple of weeks,
Speaker 5: of course, has been tariffs and the trade renegotiations that
Speaker 5: are said to be taking place. The biggest players in this,
Speaker 5: of course, are going to be the United States in
Speaker 5: China because of the massive economies and because of the
Speaker 5: products that we the United States and they China produce.
Speaker 5: And we're talking with Clark Packard, who's a research fellow
Speaker 5: at the Cato Institute about this specifically, and he focuses
Speaker 5: on international trade policy. Clark, we know that there've already
Speaker 5: been some indications of prices going up here in the
Speaker 5: United States because of all of this.
Speaker 2: In fact, I think it was.
Speaker 5: Ford that said that starting in June, consumers are going
Speaker 5: to start to see those manufactured manufacturers suggested retail prices
Speaker 5: going up on some of their vehicles, specifically their F
Speaker 5: one fifties.
Speaker 2: Do we have a good idea.
Speaker 5: I know it's a secretive society, but do we have
Speaker 5: a good idea of how this has or would impact
Speaker 5: the Chinese economy?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Well, yes, First of all, you're right, it is
Speaker 3: kind of secretive. They keep their economic data very close
Speaker 3: to the vest so to speak. But look, I do
Speaker 3: think that the Chinese economy depends on export. It is
Speaker 3: too heavily balanced in one direction, out of balance I suppose,
Speaker 3: toward production and not enough on the consumption side. And
Speaker 3: you know, all kinds of research analysts suggest that, look,
Speaker 3: the Chinese really need to try to do something to
Speaker 3: rebalance their economy. But you know, be that as it may,
Speaker 3: exports are very much an engine of growth for Beijing.
Speaker 3: And so yeah, I do think that the US is
Speaker 3: a major buyer of products from China, and you know,
Speaker 3: basically erecting this massive tariff wall that essentially prohibits I mean,
Speaker 3: the rates are so high it would essentially prohibit the
Speaker 3: purchase of Chinese goods will cause significant harm to the
Speaker 3: Chinese economy. But of of course it will also hurt
Speaker 3: the American side as well. That you know, American consumers
Speaker 3: that have to switch to higher price goods or whatever
Speaker 3: to for substitution.
Speaker 1: Just about the ward time out before the break about
Speaker 1: China's shock and how it's hard to find economists that
Speaker 1: will tell you that tariffs are going to bring back
Speaker 1: the manufacturing jobs that we have lost since the influx
Speaker 1: of China goods and the cheap way China is able
Speaker 1: to manufacture things over there and in other places like Vietnam.
Speaker 2: Where is there a world?
Speaker 1: And like, I guess, I just don't understand the thought
Speaker 1: process that the administration has that the tariffs will bring
Speaker 1: the manufacturing jobs back, because it seems like they all left,
Speaker 1: and then adding the tariffs, like I said, it just
Speaker 1: adds insult to injury. It makes it harder, at least
Speaker 1: in my dumb mind, it makes it harder to bring
Speaker 1: back those jobs with the tariffs in place. I guess
Speaker 1: I just if there's a way to understand how tariffs
Speaker 1: could help reverse China shock, I'd like to know it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I say, I think that's exactly right. Look,
Speaker 3: the first of all, the US does still maintain a
Speaker 3: pretty healthy uh it just we just don't have as
Speaker 3: many people working in those sectors. You know, the US
Speaker 3: is the second largest exporter around the world, behind China.
Speaker 3: And so part of the part of my my sort
Speaker 3: of complaint with the Trump administration is if you really
Speaker 3: want to focus and bolster domestic manufacturing, it doesn't make
Speaker 3: sense to tax the products that American firms use to
Speaker 3: build products in the United States. And so maybe if
Speaker 3: you want to impose tariff on finished goods. Maybe that
Speaker 3: would make more sense, but it doesn't make sense to
Speaker 3: and in fact, would hurt domestic manufacturers that rely on
Speaker 3: intermediate inputs and capital goods that they source from around
Speaker 3: the world to then make our products more competitive globally
Speaker 3: in the United States. And so I think there's sort
Speaker 3: of they're banking on all this investment coming into the
Speaker 3: United States. The problem is if all these foreign companies
Speaker 3: start to invest in the United States, it's going to
Speaker 3: be a significant lag by the time they stand up
Speaker 3: a factory for example. You know, you're talking maybe five years.
Speaker 3: And to me, there's a question on how much pain
Speaker 3: the American public is willing to take because I think,
Speaker 3: you know, the Trump administration can point back to higher
Speaker 3: prices during the Biden administration as probably the primary reason
Speaker 3: they're in office today. So I just don't think the
Speaker 3: American public has as much of a pain tolerance. And
Speaker 3: the time horizon isn't going to work. I think the
Speaker 3: American people are going to be pretty angry about this.
Speaker 2: Hey bring up a good point.
Speaker 1: The time alone, I mean, they don't have time to
Speaker 1: adjust in a best case scenario world.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think you know, if you wanted to
Speaker 3: do this in like a better, less erratic way, you
Speaker 3: know you would announce okay, in a year, here's what's
Speaker 3: going to happen, and that gives the supply chains time
Speaker 3: to adjust. But you know, when you're talking about radically
Speaker 3: overhauling a supply chain in the matter of a couple
Speaker 3: of weeks a month, there inevitably there's going to be
Speaker 3: major frictions, and that's going to hurt American consumers.
Speaker 5: Clark, great stuff, Thank you for your time, Thanks for
Speaker 5: having me on you bet Clark Packer, there again, research
Speaker 5: fellow at the Cato Institute. Nice to talk to people
Speaker 5: who are smarter than us.
Speaker 2: Well set the bar high.
Speaker 1: I mean I could pull in that guy that's standing
Speaker 1: out there on the street corner.
Speaker 2: He'd sounds smarter than that coming with a dog wearing
Speaker 2: a T shirt on the corner.
Speaker 1: Good time to ask you what did you learn this week?
Speaker 1: Garyan Shannon Show.
Speaker 4: Let us know.
Speaker 5: You can leave as a message on the talkback feature
Speaker 5: on the Iheard app.
Speaker 2: We'll get to him later in the show.
Speaker 5: Just a quick note also, you may have heard me
Speaker 5: exclaim about an hour and a half ago that there
Speaker 5: was a thing that happened at the Oval Office today.
Speaker 5: President Trump was officially swearing in doctor Oz to take
Speaker 5: over the centers for Medicare and Medicaid, and one of
Speaker 5: doctor Oz's family members, a guest of his young girl,
Speaker 5: probably twelve years old or so, had apparently fainted while
Speaker 5: President Trump was taking questions from reporters, and that quickly
Speaker 5: prompted the press people at the White House to usher
Speaker 5: everybody out of the room.
Speaker 2: Poor girl, poor little girl.
Speaker 5: She was able to stand up, and her mom actually
Speaker 5: was holding her hand over the little girl's mouth like please, please, please,
Speaker 5: do not barf on the floor of the Oval Office,
Speaker 5: please please please. So that's what that was awful or
Speaker 5: super embarrassing, unfortunately. And then the other thing is that
Speaker 5: Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the United States could
Speaker 5: move on from efforts for a Russia Ukraine peace deal
Speaker 5: if they can't come with can't show any progress in
Speaker 5: the coming days.
Speaker 2: There is a meeting that is scheduled.
Speaker 5: For London next week where Ukrainian, Russian and American officials
Speaker 5: are all expected to be somewhat co located and could
Speaker 5: begin some of that. But he says, if we don't
Speaker 5: see any progress. We're just gonna get out of it
Speaker 5: because it's it's not our business. It's basically what he said.
Speaker 1: Remember, if you're planning for Easter, your outfit, make sure
Speaker 1: your cleavage is not bigger than the cross around your neck.
Speaker 5: Somebody asked if that means that Jewish women can't show cleavage.
Speaker 2: That means they can show all they want, what they're
Speaker 2: showing on Easter. That's not. Oh right, then there's that too. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so I'm not sure they're concerned about it.
Speaker 1: All right, when we come back, we are going to
Speaker 1: talk about bunnies.
Speaker 5: Okay, right, what oh the animals that the you mean
Speaker 5: the Easter bunnies? Yeah, okay, I didn't like what are
Speaker 5: their bunnies?
Speaker 2: What I'd been talking about earlier in the show.
Speaker 5: We talked about a bunny that got sucked into a
Speaker 5: jet engine in Denver.
Speaker 2: I thought you meant playboy bunnies. That's because you're dirty
Speaker 2: mine in that room.
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's just something that makes us randy, being trapped
Speaker 6: in this room in here.
Speaker 2: I love it. Smut hussies. Whoa Okay, you know what
Speaker 2: that was too far?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: I went too far?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand
Speaker 4: from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2: This time of year, there's all the alerts that.
Speaker 1: Come out about I'm not abandoning the bunnies that you
Speaker 1: buy for Easter, and I feel like it's a media
Speaker 1: driven story. How often have you ever known anybody that
Speaker 1: bought a bunny for Easter, no to enhance their children's experience,
Speaker 1: and then just let the bunny go.
Speaker 2: It makes no sense.
Speaker 1: I believe that this story is right up there with
Speaker 1: the Bermuda Triangle and quicksand Okay, okay, it's an urban legend.
Speaker 2: It's not a thing that you need to fear.
Speaker 1: They're not going to be abandoned bunnies running in the
Speaker 1: street that were adopted just for First of all, I've
Speaker 1: never heard of anyone adopting a bunny.
Speaker 2: I know people that.
Speaker 1: Have had bunnies as pets, but like going to a
Speaker 1: shelter and getting a bunny, You've never heard that. And
Speaker 1: the idea that you'd go to a shelter, adopt a
Speaker 1: bunny just for Easter and then let it go.
Speaker 5: That doesn't happen, And then it becomes it becomes Night
Speaker 5: of the Leapus.
Speaker 2: It's not real.
Speaker 5: What is that that's a horror movie from the early seventies.
Speaker 5: Night at the Leapus it's a science fiction film based
Speaker 5: on a novel called The Year of the Angry Rabbit,
Speaker 5: an infestation of mutated rabbits.
Speaker 2: Yes, money, Oh, there's a trailer. Night of the leapis.
Speaker 6: Oh, that is some deep track movie.
Speaker 2: It's an MGM. Right there, You're welcome. You are welcome. Also.
Speaker 6: I don't want to burst your bubble, you guys, But
Speaker 6: when I was little, my parents got me a bunny.
Speaker 2: What did you do with the front door? You're the first?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you're you're right here, right here. I
Speaker 2: do not want to cause conflict. I need a whole story.
Speaker 2: So I was.
Speaker 6: About five and my parentcy I'm from Oklahoma originally.
Speaker 2: And second, that's that's slightly different. Can you sing a
Speaker 2: sorry with Yes? You can, pushy little Surrey with the
Speaker 2: fringe on the.
Speaker 6: Tour, Yes, go again, Gary and Shannon karaoke.
Speaker 2: We got it. Oh my god, no, my my parents
Speaker 2: golden hairs home moment. Don't stop. Yes, listen, I'm there
Speaker 2: was a reason why I came to work today. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, do oh what a beautiful morning. God, I
Speaker 2: just did that's the day. Yeah, you didn't get to
Speaker 2: the part, you know, the it's too high for me.
Speaker 6: I feel like this might be part of your new
Speaker 6: weekend show. It should just be carried people just telling
Speaker 6: you what they want you to see. I think we
Speaker 6: do all Oklahoma hits for the rest of the day,
Speaker 6: and if I'm not included in that, I will.
Speaker 5: Write you are included. Okay, now hang on, you're in Oklahoma.
Speaker 5: Your parents bought you a buddy.
Speaker 2: Money for Easter.
Speaker 6: Yeah, so it was this keeled bunny and I'm so
Speaker 6: basic they let me name it. Of course I named
Speaker 6: it Thumpter Thumper.
Speaker 2: Because I'm an old god. Because that's when Bamby came out.
Speaker 2: All expect more from you.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I was five.
Speaker 5: What's my creative somehow connected to the resurrection of Christ?
Speaker 2: Somehow? Five? She didn't know about Jesus on the Cross?
Speaker 2: And why did you get a bunny for Easter?
Speaker 6: I think it was just because this isn't Bunnies don't
Speaker 6: go hand in hand for Christ's sake.
Speaker 2: Listen, I know that, but I'm just sorry.
Speaker 6: I think my parents wanted didn't want to get me
Speaker 6: a dog. That was the day I wanted a dog
Speaker 6: or cat, and they were like, no, we'll get you up, bunny.
Speaker 6: And they built this wonderful like cage outside it says cage,
Speaker 6: but it was this really beautiful My dad built this great,
Speaker 6: you know place for the bunny to stay.
Speaker 2: And I loved it. I loved Thumper. He slept with
Speaker 2: me at night.
Speaker 6: You know, we used to pick up his little poop
Speaker 6: pellets everywhere, and like, you know, it taught me, like
Speaker 6: I just I loved bunnies, I loved animals. And then
Speaker 6: we were at the grocery store. We were out running
Speaker 6: airs or something, and somebody broke in and stole him.
Speaker 6: What yes, just the bunny, just the bunny. They ripped
Speaker 6: him out of the cage. They broke up in the
Speaker 6: cage and they stole father. I cried so hard.
Speaker 2: Who knew the bunny was there? I don't know, honestly.
Speaker 6: Somebody do have friends over too, Yeah, I mean somebody
Speaker 6: had to have told them or you know something, because
Speaker 6: the cage was in the backyard and you know, unless
Speaker 6: somebody went.
Speaker 1: And is there any chance your parents pretended that Thumper
Speaker 1: was stolen?
Speaker 2: No, my mom did that with my dog.
Speaker 7: Though.
Speaker 2: When I was in I knew there was something there.
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, she just did not want no dogs. But yeah,
Speaker 6: I had the bunny. I had the Easter bunny and
Speaker 6: he was such a little.
Speaker 2: Sweel thinking how long did you have Thumper? I had
Speaker 2: him for probably about a year. What's a life expectancy
Speaker 2: on a bunny like that? I don't know. I want
Speaker 2: a bunny.
Speaker 5: Now, you guys get some neighbors who had rabbits, but
Speaker 5: they weren't connected to Easter.
Speaker 2: Hey, guys, so our new producer and board op. That's
Speaker 2: training Nikki. He is obsessed with bunnies and she knows
Speaker 2: everything about bunnies. Do you want to chime ass? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Tell me tell me bunny stuff. I want to hear
Speaker 1: all the bunny stuff.
Speaker 2: Tell me what you know? Nicky, your mic over there?
Speaker 2: The blue BUTTONO at this, go for it? Can you
Speaker 2: hear me?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Introduce yourself. Hi, I'm Nicky.
Speaker 7: I'm one of the new producers here. I love her,
Speaker 7: love you at present. I believe the Guinness World Record
Speaker 7: for the longest living rabbit was a rabbit in Illinois
Speaker 7: named Mick who lived until age sixteen.
Speaker 5: Now that you have a lot of very specific items
Speaker 5: about that bunny, that's.
Speaker 1: Do you know that we really dive into two fun
Speaker 1: facts on this show with animals, and to be specific,
Speaker 1: so you are, you're nailing it right now.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 7: And so my last rabbit lived until age fifteen, which
Speaker 7: is insane because wild rabbits, they might be lucky to
Speaker 7: live for three years. Oh wow, But domestic rabbits, you're
Speaker 7: also lucky to have one to live for seven or
Speaker 7: eight years.
Speaker 2: But my gudes, that's with the best care and everything.
Speaker 7: Well do you know what I did to make sure
Speaker 7: that he lived a long life?
Speaker 2: You didn't need him, No, I'm a vegetarian. Well there's that. No.
Speaker 7: I gave him cannabis oil every day.
Speaker 2: I was going to say beer, So I was kind
Speaker 2: of on.
Speaker 7: The right, Okay, THHC and CBD oil and I would
Speaker 7: give him enough for a great day.
Speaker 5: Oh, a great story.
Speaker 2: What was his name? His name was Harold Goldstein? Yes,
Speaker 2: it was. Was that named after somebody or was it
Speaker 2: just a name you came up with. Imagine the best
Speaker 2: tax accountant you've.
Speaker 7: Ever had, Harold Goldstein.
Speaker 2: I'm looking for a new tax guy where he would
Speaker 2: do your taxes if he was still with us. Where
Speaker 2: is he buried?
Speaker 7: He's cremated on my mantlepiece with four other rabbits.
Speaker 2: What are the other rabbits names?
Speaker 7: There was his wife, Janice Longbody Goldstein.
Speaker 2: There was long Buddy. Yes.
Speaker 7: There was also Wendell who emigrated with me from Australia.
Speaker 2: Wendel Proctor legally, of course, legally, yes, he was a
Speaker 2: legal immigrant. He did his paper, he reads his flood.
Speaker 7: And then I also had Stanislav and Rory Stanislav.
Speaker 1: Was this a Russian bunny? Yes, he was Russian, was
Speaker 1: from St. Peter though, he was You had like a
Speaker 1: little you went of rabbits. Yeah, it was like a
Speaker 1: clown car for rabbits in my place.
Speaker 2: Are you going to get another one?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 7: I think I need to give my heart a little
Speaker 7: break from the sadness of when they die.
Speaker 2: Are they relatively low maintenance? No, they take a lot
Speaker 2: of work. I'm not easy until you unless you keep
Speaker 2: them high all the time.
Speaker 7: Absolutely, you got to be vigilant because they don't show
Speaker 7: you they're ill. When they're sick. They go quiet and
Speaker 7: sit in the corner because they're a prey animal.
Speaker 2: Do I detect an accent? Yes, it's an Australian act.
Speaker 2: You didn't hear, she said, Australian funny funny. Do you
Speaker 2: know the musical Oklahoma?
Speaker 7: Of course I was raised on it. What a beautiful
Speaker 7: morning sing along?
Speaker 2: No, I can't sing. I'm ready get its high as
Speaker 2: an elephants and it looks like is climbing clear up
Speaker 2: to the She's a real singer, She's got it. I
Speaker 2: cannot carry a tune in a bucket.
Speaker 5: But even just saying that sounds great. I'm going to
Speaker 5: put Heather to work. On the other hand, Yes, thank you, Nikki.
Speaker 5: When we come back, people will say we're in love. Hey, Richie,
Speaker 5: can you didn't I did?
Speaker 2: Hey Richie?
Speaker 1: Can you take that last segment, patch it up, patch
Speaker 1: it up into a nice little package and send it
Speaker 1: to the.
Speaker 2: National Radio Hall of Fame? Yes? Please, absolutely, I'm on it. Boom.
Speaker 2: I have a feeling it's going to be dropped off
Speaker 2: on the frontier.
Speaker 1: I really enjoy I enjoyed that segment more than anything
Speaker 1: in a very long time on this show.
Speaker 5: Gary and Shannon will continue with nothing after There's nowhere
Speaker 5: we go.
Speaker 1: After that, we can do more songs and do more
Speaker 1: Bunny Fact go to Oklahoma.
Speaker 4: You're listening to Gary and chann on demand from KFI
Speaker 4: am six forty.
Speaker 2: Justin Rose and Rory McElroy have been friends forever. It
Speaker 2: was a thirteen second hug.
Speaker 5: So if I had won the Masters, I would have
Speaker 5: hugs from people that I know. Thirteen seconds with your
Speaker 5: friend's wife. It ain't twenty twenty is the cutoff. Had
Speaker 5: it been twenty they would have been legally married. But
Speaker 5: since Rory's already legally married, he knew he had to
Speaker 5: cut it short. He didn't want to cause any confusion. No,
Speaker 5: it was such, they're just they're friends. I mean, I
Speaker 5: don't think that's and she's probably one of the people,
Speaker 5: if they're as close as they say they are, she's
Speaker 5: probably one of the people that knows everything that's gone
Speaker 5: on with Rory and his wife and the back and
Speaker 5: forth about getting a divorce and then deciding that or
Speaker 5: saying they were going to start divorce proceedings, and then.
Speaker 2: Thirteen seconds is a long time. What's wrong with you? Listen,
