Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
Speaker 1: AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
Speaker 1: on the iHeartRadio app. Well, yesterday I was sitting at
Speaker 1: my neighbor's house. It was his seventy sixth birthday. A
Speaker 1: bunch of neighbors got together. We had some cake, some champagne,
Speaker 1: and I see smoke. We see smoke in the distance,
Speaker 1: and I go, oh, that looks like a fire. Looks
Speaker 1: like it's got some fuel there. So I get on
Speaker 1: my little phone, get I jump on the Twitter, and
Speaker 1: I Google fire, I google La County. I'm searching for
Speaker 1: all sorts of different you know, the fire, two tens,
Speaker 1: just stuff like this. I can't find any answers. So
Speaker 1: I called Steve Gregory and he picks up the phone
Speaker 1: and I said, Steve, I see smoke. It's near my house,
Speaker 1: and he, in the most gentle way, said yes, it's
Speaker 1: the Wittier narrows. It looks like they've knocked it down.
Speaker 1: And he was so gentle, and it reminded me of
Speaker 1: the way my father would talk to his mother when
Speaker 1: she was senile, and would call the house with in
Speaker 1: nane question. Right, I'm now that old.
Speaker 2: Well, it's not that you're that old, it's just that you're.
Speaker 1: Starting to You should have heard his tone. It was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the wittier and narrows, like, bless your heart, you're
Speaker 1: still seeing things. That's good, right, that's positive.
Speaker 3: I saw a lot of Olympics yesterday. I actually enjoyed
Speaker 3: watching some of the Olympics.
Speaker 2: It was fun.
Speaker 3: The whole basketball thing cracks me up. We have arguably
Speaker 3: the greatest what twelve athletes or whatever that ever played
Speaker 3: that sport currently, and they dropped ten points right away.
Speaker 3: I mean they were down ten to two in the
Speaker 3: opening seconds of the game.
Speaker 1: Makes no difference.
Speaker 2: Steve got to be like, whoa turn out.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. They choose to turn it on, and
Speaker 1: they turn it on. They're like the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1: It's like la de da three and a half quarters. Oh,
Speaker 1: I guess I'll start playing now. Win win, win.
Speaker 2: So we'll talk about the Olympics.
Speaker 3: There's some fun stuff that's gone on at the Olympics
Speaker 3: in Paris over the court and yet another attack of
Speaker 3: some kind that went after telecommunication services that doesn't appear
Speaker 3: to have the same impact obviously that attacking rail stations does,
Speaker 3: but a sign that that's still definitely a target. President
Speaker 3: Trump said something stupid over the weekend that nobody quite
Speaker 3: understands what he meant with the whole vote.
Speaker 2: Now you won't ever have to vote again.
Speaker 4: Oh.
Speaker 1: Everyone lost their minds online about this, about how he's
Speaker 1: going to take the presidency and never let it go.
Speaker 1: And this is our worst fear. I think he did
Speaker 1: it just to f with people.
Speaker 3: I don't even think he thinks that far ahead. I
Speaker 3: think he's I mean, he's clearly did it off script.
Speaker 3: It was off of off the teleprompter, but yes it was.
Speaker 3: And it's one of those things where he says it
Speaker 3: it sounds good, but without showing any of his work.
Speaker 3: It leaves just like we see in other instances when
Speaker 3: there's no information, we fill it with vs.
Speaker 1: I think it's meat to the base. I mean, that
Speaker 1: is the lane he is driving in and he's committed
Speaker 1: to this. It is the carpool lane with the double
Speaker 1: yellow line. He is wanting to fire up his base,
Speaker 1: and he's turning away. I think independence in the process.
Speaker 1: That's what he did with JD. Vans. It's what he does,
Speaker 1: just letting them have that seed. Planted that once he
Speaker 1: gets the presidency, he'll never let it go, or the
Speaker 1: Republicans will never let it go, and that they will
Speaker 1: thwart democracy. I think the base loves to hear that stuff.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we just found out a short time ago that
Speaker 3: former President Trump is going to sit for what they
Speaker 3: call a victim interview in the investigation into the attempted assassination.
Speaker 2: The FBI does this routinely.
Speaker 3: It's not anything specifically interesting other than that it's a
Speaker 3: former president. The FBI Special Agent in charge of the
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh office didn't say when this is going to take place,
Speaker 3: but said it would be a standard victim interview that
Speaker 3: they do for any other victim of crime. Of course,
Speaker 3: remember there was one guy who was killed and two
Speaker 3: others who were hurt in the stands. The President was
Speaker 3: hit with a bullet in his ear. This morning, also
Speaker 3: on Good Morning America, Aaron Katursky, who you've heard on
Speaker 3: this show multiple times, sat down with the sniper team,
Speaker 3: the local sniper team that was there Beaver County Swat
Speaker 3: and talk to them about what happened that day. They
Speaker 3: were the closest swat team and we're charged with the
Speaker 3: security in the outside perimeter.
Speaker 1: There Beaver County swat sniper Gregory Nichol spotted this man
Speaker 1: skulking around the outskirts of this site where Trump was
Speaker 1: about to take the stage. He had a second floor
Speaker 1: post inside the AGR complex at the fairgrounds. He noticed
Speaker 1: this guy, a young man in a gray shirt, just
Speaker 1: kind of lurking was his word. He was looking up
Speaker 1: and down the building. He said, it seemed out of place,
Speaker 1: didn't seem right. He noticed an unattended bike and backpack.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: He was the first officer to issue a warning about this.
Speaker 1: But within an hour, and you heard that correctly, an
Speaker 1: hour went by before this guy opened fire. So the
Speaker 1: sniper raises the red flags. Hey, there's something going on
Speaker 1: with this dude over here. Doesn't seem right. It's a
Speaker 1: gut check. But yet that dude was able to continue
Speaker 1: to be at the event, arm himself and fire eight bullets.
Speaker 3: This was one of the revelations from this morning's interview,
Speaker 3: or the interview I should say that aired this morning
Speaker 3: on ABC.
Speaker 2: Let me see if this.
Speaker 5: We were supposed to get a face briefing with the
Speaker 5: Secret Service sniper's purse whenever they arrived, and that never happened.
Speaker 5: So I think that that was probably a pivotal point
Speaker 5: where I started.
Speaker 2: All right, well something wrong with the computer.
Speaker 1: But he's saying, helcome first, how come every Monday have
Speaker 1: we come in here? And it's like there were monkeys
Speaker 1: going wild, ripping chords out of things and just effing
Speaker 1: things up no apparent reason.
Speaker 2: And all you have to do is just leave him
Speaker 2: where it is, just where they are.
Speaker 1: It works just fine for everybody. Fine.
Speaker 3: Anyway, He's saying that they were supposed to be briefed,
Speaker 3: The entire Beaver County squat team was supposed to be
Speaker 3: briefed by Secret Service when they arrived at the location,
Speaker 3: and that never happened. In fact, when Aaron Katurski asked them,
Speaker 3: so when did you talk to Secret Service? He said,
Speaker 3: well after the shooting, and by then, obviously it's way
Speaker 3: too late.
Speaker 1: Do you think you could do that pommel horse thing? No,
Speaker 1: I was, you need to some more planks.
Speaker 3: I talked to my wife last night about gymnastics and
Speaker 3: if she ever I did gymnastics for I don't know,
Speaker 3: a year and a half.
Speaker 2: Two years.
Speaker 3: I think when I was I can see that something
Speaker 3: like that. I got as far as the uneven parallel bars.
Speaker 3: That's that's about as far as I got.
Speaker 1: I tried gymnastics as well, like any red blooded female American.
Speaker 1: And my problem is is I am not fearless. I
Speaker 1: am very I'm overly cautious. Cannot just throw caution to
Speaker 1: the wind and throw my body around. I am terrified
Speaker 1: of really everything that goes into gymnastics. Somersault nailed it,
Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. I mean I had a panic attack trying
Speaker 1: to do a cartwheel in the hallway a couple of
Speaker 1: months ago.
Speaker 3: That was pretty funny. You look, and now I realize
Speaker 3: where this comes from. My dog is very concerned about stairs. Yeah,
Speaker 3: like he can go upstairs, sure, coming downstairs is very
Speaker 3: frustrating for him because I mean, tiny.
Speaker 1: Little legs and stuff. I'm a wreck on an escalator.
Speaker 3: Well, but that the looks and the sounds that he
Speaker 3: makes now trying to come downstairs very similar what you
Speaker 3: were making right before you try to carp.
Speaker 1: I'm having an oversized reaction to this whole sexist remark
Speaker 1: by the by the euros sport broadcaster Bob Ballard. I'm
Speaker 1: having an oversized reaction. I do not believe that was
Speaker 1: a sexist remark. Women. Well, you know what the women
Speaker 1: are like, hanging around doing their makeup. I watched the
Speaker 1: Simone Biles documentary over the weekend, the first two episodes. Fantastic.
Speaker 1: You know what she's doing in a good portion of
Speaker 1: that documentary, hanging around doing makeup, doing makeup with Ali Raisman.
Speaker 1: That's what we do. That's what women do. Can you
Speaker 1: be an athlete and hang around and do your makeup? Yes,
Speaker 1: we do all of these things.
Speaker 2: Clearly they I mean, we just we just saw it
Speaker 2: all day yesterday.
Speaker 3: Now, the thing is it was sexist, but it wasn't
Speaker 3: offensive enough to I mean, get them out there and
Speaker 3: just go, hey, listen. Clearly I care enough about the
Speaker 3: events and the sports to do what I do as
Speaker 3: a for a living.
Speaker 1: So it was a fun little joke. Which what woman
Speaker 1: doesn't like to hang around and do her makeup? Childless
Speaker 1: cat ladies?
Speaker 3: Okay, no, no, I didn't say it was Jdvan.
Speaker 1: How about giving a waste some money? Will I do that? No?
Speaker 2: We're done with that?
Speaker 1: Really?
Speaker 3: Yeah, how did you get that away? All of our
Speaker 3: money we got we're poor. Now we are poor. We
Speaker 3: got to wait for more money to come in. There's
Speaker 3: a bunch going on today, at least eight people transported
Speaker 3: to hospitals with stab wounds after what they say as
Speaker 3: a major incident in the UK. Officers responded just before
Speaker 3: noon their time to reports of a stabbing at a
Speaker 3: property in Southport, a seaside town about twenty miles north
Speaker 3: of Liverpool. Armed police have detained a mail and seized
Speaker 3: a knife. He has been taken to the police station.
Speaker 3: They said there may have been kids involved. Israeli drones
Speaker 3: struck a remote road in southern Lebanon. At least two
Speaker 3: people were killed by these two Israeli drone strikes. Of course,
Speaker 3: this is in retaliation and we're waiting for a major
Speaker 3: retaliation after a rocket strike on Saturday in the goal
Speaker 3: On Heights killed twelve children, many of them as they
Speaker 3: were just playing soccer.
Speaker 1: So we mentioned this before the break. But my first
Speaker 1: reaction to reading this headline, President Biden announces bold plan
Speaker 1: to reform the Supreme Court. My first reaction inside my
Speaker 1: head right away without missing a beat, was lol, there's
Speaker 1: no way President Biden is calling for any sort of
Speaker 1: sweeping Supreme Court reforms. He's calling for warm milk, okay.
Speaker 1: And it leads you to this question, because after you're
Speaker 1: done laughing about how ridiculous that is that he's sitting there,
Speaker 1: you know, coming up masterminding some bold plan for the
Speaker 1: future of the Supreme Court. The big question is, after
Speaker 1: the laughter subsides, who's running the country?
Speaker 3: Who is writing op eds like this? I would say
Speaker 3: this about many of the presidents that we've seen. I mean,
Speaker 3: Trump didn't bother writing op ed pieces, not in his
Speaker 3: own language, at least now, because they would have been
Speaker 3: an absolute mishmash of broken sentences and malapropisms. In this case,
Speaker 3: it's a question of okay, he may have had an
Speaker 3: idea at some point, especially after the Dobbs decision, that
Speaker 3: he wanted to try to prevent a even greater majority
Speaker 3: conservative Supreme Court.
Speaker 2: I get it there.
Speaker 3: There have been times in the past when the Supreme
Speaker 3: Court has been very, very liberal, and we've never changed
Speaker 3: to the Supreme Court as a result of as a
Speaker 3: result of the political aspect or the political leanings of them.
Speaker 2: One of the things that he has said he's wanted
Speaker 2: to do was.
Speaker 3: A constitutional amendment called the no One is Above the
Speaker 3: Law Amendment never going to happen, make clear that no
Speaker 3: immunity for crimes a former president committed while in office.
Speaker 2: Share.
Speaker 3: He says, I share our founders belief that the president
Speaker 3: power is limited, not absolute. We're a nation of laws,
Speaker 3: not of kings or dictators. That's fine, I mean, the
Speaker 3: heart of it, I would agree with. I think there
Speaker 3: should be something spelled out that there is no one
Speaker 3: in this country that's above the law. I completely agree
Speaker 3: with that. You're never going to get that in a
Speaker 3: constitutional amendment. You're never going to get this through Congress, period. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because it's carry it full stop. Two thirds of Congress,
Speaker 3: right have to approve a constitutional amendment, and then it's
Speaker 3: three quarters of state legislatures. This process does not go
Speaker 3: in six months. This is not a quick process. That's
Speaker 3: why there are very few, relatively few amendments to the
Speaker 3: actual constitution. Second thing, he wants term limits for presidents. Sorry,
Speaker 3: we've had term limits for presidents. We should have the
Speaker 3: same for Supreme Court justices. Again, that would also require
Speaker 3: a believe a constitutional amendment because it's spelled out in
Speaker 3: the Constitution that justices do not have do not have
Speaker 3: term limits. And then third, a code of conduct for
Speaker 3: the Supreme Court. He says, this is common sense. The
Speaker 3: Court's current Voluntary Ethics Code is weak and self enforced.
Speaker 3: I heard a great smart comment from John Yu who
Speaker 3: is a former assistant Deputy Attorney General, said if this
Speaker 3: stuff is to pass, it would have to be in
Speaker 3: the form of a constitutional amendment.
Speaker 4: Now Biden and Harris are going to say, oh, Congress
Speaker 4: stream just pass it by statue. But really, if you
Speaker 4: want to be changing the term moments of justices of
Speaker 4: the Supreme Court, which in the Constitution are granted for life,
Speaker 4: I think you need to mend the constitution. That requires
Speaker 4: two thirds of the Congress and three quarters of the
Speaker 4: state legislatures. It takes years and years to get constitutional
Speaker 4: amendments through.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Wish for a sparkly uniform unicorn to fly
Speaker 1: through your window? Will it be just as successful? Or
Speaker 1: you're what?
Speaker 2: You're bum? You're bum?
Speaker 1: You want a unicorn in your backside? That sound like
Speaker 1: a good time to you.
Speaker 2: No, I'm just saying, what did you do this weekend? Unusual?
Speaker 2: That's what it would be. It would be unusual.
Speaker 1: Biden's going to be at the LBJ Library this afternoon.
Speaker 1: How many days are we going to have to put
Speaker 1: up with this as a nation? Watching him stumble through remarks.
Speaker 3: Well, one hundred ninety eight eight whatever until November fifth,
Speaker 3: and then.
Speaker 1: And then there's November and December and January.
Speaker 3: There's a new poll out that says we're gonna leave.
Speaker 1: Him out there in the cold in January. Oh gets
Speaker 1: cold at the handing of the baton.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: In fact, when Obama he's gonna need a blanket, I was, well.
Speaker 2: Everybody's gonna need a blanket at that point.
Speaker 3: But I was there a few days after Obama was
Speaker 3: sworn in, and it was about eighteen degrees I think,
Speaker 3: and it was colder than that on the day of
Speaker 3: the inauguration, if I'm not mistaken, Yeah, ter gross. This
Speaker 3: new poll shows that the race is essentially tied. According
Speaker 3: to the Wall Street Journal, the former president leads forty
Speaker 3: nine to forty seven, but the margin of error is
Speaker 3: plus or minus three point one, so it's well within
Speaker 3: the margin of error, which is interesting because if it's
Speaker 3: just the two of them, Trump leads forty nine to
Speaker 3: forty seven. If you include other independent third party candidates
Speaker 3: RFK jill Stein, people like that Harris gets fit forty
Speaker 3: five percent, Trump gets forty four percent.
Speaker 1: Items belonging to OJ Simpson will be auctioned off to
Speaker 1: raise money to pay civil claims. Back in ninety seven,
Speaker 1: the families of Nicole Brown, Simpson, and Ron Goldman were
Speaker 1: awarded thirty three and a half million dollars in that
Speaker 1: wrongful death lawsuit, not seeing a dime. The auctioned comes
Speaker 1: just one day after Fred Goldman filed a one hundred
Speaker 1: and seventeen million dollar creditor claim against Simpson's estate. Items
Speaker 1: in the auction include OJ's personal property like his heisman,
Speaker 1: the Heisman trophy at the golf clubs, a high end
Speaker 1: suv as well. Who's buying that stuff.
Speaker 3: The same people that it's like that they got in
Speaker 3: trouble with in Vegas.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of like, on one hand, you
Speaker 1: want to buy it to help Fred Goldman or help
Speaker 1: the families get something. On the other hand, you're feeling
Speaker 1: pretty gross about yourself if you're spending thousands of dollars
Speaker 1: to get OJ Simpson stuff.
Speaker 3: So Friday, at the turning Point Action Believers summat in Florida,
Speaker 3: President Trump said.
Speaker 5: This, Christians, get out and vote. Just this time. You
Speaker 5: won't have to do it anymore four more years. You
Speaker 5: know what, It'll be fixed.
Speaker 2: It'll be fine.
Speaker 5: You won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I
Speaker 5: love you Christians.
Speaker 2: I'm not Christian. I love you Christian kind.
Speaker 5: To get out and vote. In four years, you don't
Speaker 5: have to vote again. We'll have it, fixtion.
Speaker 1: You're knocking down on it, Okay, he keeps saying the
Speaker 1: word fixed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you think he said I'm not right Christians.
Speaker 3: I love you Christians, I'm not Christians.
Speaker 1: There's a debate going on if he said I'm not Christian,
Speaker 1: or he said I'm Christian. I thought he said I'm
Speaker 1: not Christian.
Speaker 2: I'm a Christian.
Speaker 5: Are you Christians?
Speaker 1: I'm not Christian, I'm a Christian. Maybe he's saying he
Speaker 1: is a Christian. Why wouldn't he say I'm a Christian.
Speaker 2: It makes zero sense. I mean, let's stand there for it's.
Speaker 1: Just really go for it.
Speaker 2: I did think it was funny.
Speaker 3: Somebody pointed out there are not pictures of him praying
Speaker 3: like I've seen a handful of pictures, very artistically done,
Speaker 3: you know, the very soft light through the window of
Speaker 3: the stained glass.
Speaker 2: They're all ai generated. I haven't seen any of them.
Speaker 1: Well, the closest he's come is that money shot of
Speaker 1: him bloodied on the floor of a secret service surrounding
Speaker 1: him after someone took a shot at him, and his
Speaker 1: hands are kind of up. And when I saw that image,
Speaker 1: here we go, someone's going, here we go.
Speaker 3: Now we don't know what the hell he meant by this.
Speaker 3: You got to get out and vote. In four years,
Speaker 3: you don't have to vote.
Speaker 1: This is when people start screaming at the radio. Stop
Speaker 1: saying stop trying to interpret what he meant. Just take
Speaker 1: him on his word. That's exactly what he meant. That
Speaker 1: he's going to stay in office or the Republicans will
Speaker 1: keep the office. There will be no more elections, and
Speaker 1: that's what people are losing their minds over.
Speaker 3: Daniel Goldman, Congressman, and said the only way you won't
Speaker 3: have to vote anymore is if Donald Trump becomes a dictator.
Speaker 3: Adam Schiff said, this year, democracy is on the ballot,
Speaker 3: and if we are to save it, we must vote
Speaker 3: against authoritarianism. Trump hopefully reminds us, helpfully reminds us that
Speaker 3: the alternative is never having the chance to vote again.
Speaker 3: And then why we even listened to Keith Overman again.
Speaker 3: Somebody said Trump just canceled the twenty twenty eight election.
Speaker 3: Chris Sununu, Governor of Massachusetts. I'm sorry, Governor of New Hampshire.
Speaker 3: They're all small and you know what I mean, he
Speaker 3: dismissed this whole thing. I saw this interview that he
Speaker 3: did with this week on ABC Governor.
Speaker 6: What the heck did he mean there? Well, I think
Speaker 6: that was a classic trump ism, if you will. I
Speaker 6: think he's just trying to make the point that this
Speaker 6: stuff can be fixed. You know, obviously it's we want
Speaker 6: everybody to vote in all elections. But I think he
Speaker 6: was just trying to make a hyperbolic point that it
Speaker 6: can be fixed as long as he gets back into
Speaker 6: office and all that. But you know, Conspt Trump right there.
Speaker 3: Why don't we ask the guy? Why doesn't somebody get
Speaker 3: and ask Trump what he meant by that?
Speaker 1: He knew what he was doing. He was making sure
Speaker 1: that everyone was talking about him today, and he accomplished
Speaker 1: that goal.
Speaker 3: I just I just don't think he's got that amount
Speaker 3: of Well, he stumbles into these things, he doesn't fight it.
Speaker 2: He stumbles into these things.
Speaker 3: He realizes that sometimes the best, uh, the best response
Speaker 3: is to not respond and just allow this thing to
Speaker 3: sort of simmer.
Speaker 1: Exactly last week, I said out loud, what's he going
Speaker 1: to do? All of the attention for Kamala has got
Speaker 1: to be driving him insane. He needs to claw back
Speaker 1: some of that attention. That's just his personality. And here
Speaker 1: we go. Over the weekend, he's got it back. At
Speaker 1: least today, no one's talking about Kamala. They're all talking
Speaker 1: about Trump. And over the weekend people lost their minds,
Speaker 1: while the whole time his base is somewhere, you know,
Speaker 1: behind a tree, waiting, you know.
Speaker 2: The mean they're rubbing their hands together the meme the guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they're like, yes, they love to hear
Speaker 1: that it's music through their ears, that they won't give
Speaker 1: up the White House.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 3: Deadpool and Wolverine gross two hundred and five million dollars
Speaker 3: in domestic.
Speaker 1: Sales, and that's what they were projecting. I mean, they
Speaker 1: blew the projections out of the water, but you knew
Speaker 1: they would.
Speaker 3: Four thirty eight globally, So it's the record holder for
Speaker 3: the highest grossing opening weekend for an R rated movie.
Speaker 3: It is also number eight all time for any movie.
Speaker 3: It's coming right between a couple of the Marvel products,
Speaker 3: The Avengers and black Pants.
Speaker 1: Speaking of Marvel, remember how we were all really sad
Speaker 1: spoiler alert when we watched Avengers Endgame and they all
Speaker 1: died and just like disintegrated into pieces, especially iron Man
Speaker 1: in particular. For me, it was hard and I was like,
Speaker 1: he can't be dead. There's just there's no way. They've
Speaker 1: got to figure out how to bring him back. There's
Speaker 1: got to be some sort of mechanism. But that did
Speaker 1: not happen, and you had to sit here and say, no,
Speaker 1: they're dead. It's over endgame. Well, Robert Downey Jr. Is
Speaker 1: returning to the Marvel universe. You already know this.
Speaker 2: But he's a bad guy, isn't he.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be Victor von Doom. Yeah, that sounds like
Speaker 1: a bad guy. Go out on a limb. Here, go
Speaker 1: outing on a limb. It's a new Avengers movie called
Speaker 1: Avengers Doomsday. Russo Russo Brothers are set to direct the film,
Speaker 1: along with Avengers Secret Wars.
Speaker 3: Is no one gonna go, hey, doesn't that guy look
Speaker 3: like Tony Stark Victor von Doom.
Speaker 1: Well, they're gonna have to definitely alter everything every because
Speaker 1: all I'm gonna see is iron Man.
Speaker 3: A big study, groundbreaking study presented at the Alzheimer's Association
Speaker 3: in international conference in Philadelphia yesterday showed that scientists have
Speaker 3: made this MA stride toward the goal of diagnosing Alzheimer's
Speaker 3: disease with a simple blood test. Teamor researchers are reported
Speaker 3: that a blood test significantly more accurate than doctor's interpretation
Speaker 3: of cognitive tests or CT scans in trying to signal
Speaker 3: this condition. So they said that this blood test about
Speaker 3: ninety percent of the time correctly identified whether patients with
Speaker 3: memory problems had Alzheimer's. They said that a dementia specialist
Speaker 3: using just standard methods like standard methods testing and things
Speaker 3: like that, they're accurate about seventy three percent of the time.
Speaker 3: Primary care doctors who use PET scans or spinal taps
Speaker 3: only got it right sixty one percent of the time.
Speaker 3: These There have been other blood tests developed for Alzheimer's
Speaker 3: and currently used to screen participants in the clinical trials,
Speaker 3: but they said that this is hugely groundbreaking because it
Speaker 3: could be a step in the screening process could be
Speaker 3: only used for people with memory loss and other symptoms
Speaker 3: of cognitive decline, not for people who would otherwise be healthy,
Speaker 3: to try to predict if they were in fact going
Speaker 3: to develop Alzheimer's. They also said that the research itself
Speaker 3: was done in Sweden, which has a very.
Speaker 2: What's the word Sweden has a very white population.
Speaker 3: Period, and they are well, they're saying it doesn't necessarily
Speaker 3: translate to a population like you'd find in the United States,
Speaker 3: which would be much more ethnically racially diverse. So they
Speaker 3: would do it again here just to see if it
Speaker 3: also works in different ethnicities, et cetera, at least to
Speaker 3: the same level. But massive, massive, news, and that's a
Speaker 3: positive thing. Hey, Tomorrow, the Dodger's going to take on
Speaker 3: the Padres. They beat the Astros yesterday six to two.
Speaker 3: The Dodgers going to take on the Padres down in
Speaker 3: San Diego. First pitch is at six forty and you
Speaker 3: can listen to every play of every Dodger's game on
Speaker 3: AM five seventy LA Sports Live from the Galvin Motors
Speaker 3: Broadcast booth, stream all the games in HD on that
Speaker 3: iHeartRadio app used the keyword AM five seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 1: Do you hear about Freddy Freeman's son. That's terrifying. Gosh,
Speaker 1: when there's something medically wrong with your kid, what a
Speaker 1: helpless situation. You can be Iron Man, you can be
Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman, the dutiest dude that ever dudd, but you
Speaker 1: have zero power and zero control over that. And that's
