So that how you train the squat, 50 00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:15.280 I can imagine what can be and be unburdened by 51 00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:17.759 what has been. You know, Murvans have always been going, 52 00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:20.080 They're not stupid. 53 00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:23.039 A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth. 54 00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.759 I have the people voting for you were not swamp watch. 55 00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:26.919 They're all counter knowing. 56 00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:29.719 So yesterday I was on Twitter more than I've been 57 00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:35.759 on Twitter four years, at least non football news related Twitter, 58 00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.879 I guess you could say, because I kept waiting for 59 00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:44.520 this war to escalate throughout the day, and Elon Musk 60 00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:49.000 and Donald Trump took this break up quite public, quite quickly, 61 00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:52.560 and I feel like we've kind of plateaued today. 62 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:53.719 Not a lot coming out. 63 00:02:54.919 --> 00:02:57.039 I think there's a lot of hope, whether it's within 64 00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:00.599 the White House or Republicans in general, there's a lot 65 00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:03.840 of hope that this thing flashed and is over right. 66 00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:06.680 I don't think it is, but but that may be 67 00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:11.680 the hope. President Trump did say that he's disappointed in 68 00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:17.599 this discussion, this ongoing social media salvos that have been 69 00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:18.439 going back and forth. 70 00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:21.960 And I had a great relationship past tense. 71 00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:25.240 I don't know what will anymore, but I'm very disappointed 72 00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:25.680 in Elon. 73 00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:27.919 I've helped elon a lot, and I'll be honest, I 74 00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:31.759 think he misses the place. Dana Bash from CNN spoke 75 00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:33.800 with President Trump on the phone today. 76 00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:37.080 Well, he said that he's quote well, here's exactly what 77 00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:40.840 he said. Quote, I'm not even thinking about Elon. He's 78 00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:44.360 got a problem. The poor guy's got a problem. He 79 00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:47.000 said he won't be speaking to him for a while, 80 00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:51.400 but he said he wishes Elon Musk well. 81 00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:55.520 Again, I don't think it's over, but I do not 82 00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:57.840 know how this thing resolves itself. 83 00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:00.240 One if the winners may be the Moon. 84 00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:03.680 This is one of the more recent narratives to come 85 00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:10.719 out of this fight. The Moon mission may have new life. 86 00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:15.360 Of course, Elon Musk, SpaceX founder, well known Mars enthusiast, 87 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.959 has argued against returning astronauts to the Moon. But with 88 00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:25.120 his forced exit of his ham picked nominee for NASA 89 00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:29.800 and his fight between himself and the President, a lot 90 00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:33.759 of moonbackers in Congress and in the industry see an 91 00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:37.240 opening and they're seizing it. Clayton Swoop is a former 92 00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:40.079 Congressional advisor on space and he says Elon was the 93 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:42.319 main reason for the fork in the road for NASA's 94 00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:45.959 human exploration plans, and with his exodus, there's a good 95 00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:48.959 chance NASA will refocus back to the Moon with the. 96 00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:51.399 Plan of Moon than Mars. 97 00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:56.639 Major A number of major space companies are launching ad 98 00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:02.279 campaigns to going big on the Moon. This is the 99 00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:05.319 first real big pushback to Elon Musk. As we've talked about, 100 00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:08.079 or we talked about earlier. SpaceX has had a series 101 00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:12.240 of failures recently. So his stepback when it came to 102 00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:15.040 naming the new chief of NASA when Trump' said not 103 00:05:15.120 --> 00:05:18.120 so fast, I don't want your guy, was a huge blow, 104 00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:20.720 maybe a death blow to Elon when it comes to 105 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:23.800 him being the charter of the territory of where we're headed. 106 00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:27.040 If you've got another a number of other companies with 107 00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:29.759 political capital saying no, we're going to the Moon and 108 00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:31.639 maybe the Moon and then Mars. 109 00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:33.279 When we come back. 110 00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:36.879 The plastic surgery procedure that's booming in DC right now, 111 00:05:36.920 --> 00:05:42.079 and what the pizza economy tells us about the actual economy. 112 00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:46.879 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 113 00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:48.040 AM six forty. 114 00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:50.360 I drank it. 115 00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.720 Yeah, that's going to cause some issues, is it?

It had been on for a 196 00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:08.440 long time in twenty twenty. 197 00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:08.679 Did it? 198 00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:10.000 Why was that. 199 00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:11.960 Just because everybody was ordering pizza di oh? 200 00:10:12.039 --> 00:10:14.720 I see, yeah, we certainly did. We put down a 201 00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:15.360 lot of pizza. 202 00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:18.559 The chief executive of Young Brands, which owns Pizza Hut, 203 00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:23.240 says there were several things, including the value of the 204 00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:25.960 taste maker offer. I mean your point, pizza used to 205 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.919 be pretty cheap. They were doing a ten dollars large 206 00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:30.440 pizza with any three. 207 00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:31.480 Topics it enbox. 208 00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:32.840 Yeah. 209 00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:39.120 Interesting though, because it looks like those lower income pizza 210 00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:42.759 eaters are being priced out of the pizza. Same store 211 00:10:42.799 --> 00:10:46.039 sales down at all three pizza chains Dominoes, Papa John's, 212 00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:48.399 and Pizza Hut in the first quarter of twenty five 213 00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:52.279 five percent. For Pizza Hut two point seven percent of 214 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:54.720 Papa John's down a half a percent at Domino's that 215 00:10:54.759 --> 00:10:58.480 Dominoes did have one thing that they celebrated their takeout. 216 00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:02.480 Have you ever taken out pizza? It's either delivered or 217 00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:03.200 you eat it there. 218 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:04.519 Oh I picked it up. 219 00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:09.159 Yeah, because Little Caesar specifically used to be Oh yeah. 220 00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.559 We used to also have one where was a not 221 00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:13.799 a make your own, but a bake your own pizza, 222 00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:20.440 where you'd order it they would make no, is it no, 223 00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:22.600 they cook it for you. 224 00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:23.120 They do. 225 00:11:25.799 --> 00:11:29.320 One like that when we were growing up Murphy's. Murphy's 226 00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:30.279 Pizza so funny. 227 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:32.480 My sister worked there and she would always she would 228 00:11:32.519 --> 00:11:33.440 bring home pizzas. 229 00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:38.000 Were great pizzas, but it never felt the same as 230 00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:41.799 like a delivery. It did not cook the same never ever. 231 00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:45.639 Part of the Murphy's taken bake and part of the. 232 00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:48.759 Fountlems with pizza yeah, is that there's so many other 233 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.399 options specifically as well for takeout options. 234 00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:53.600 Plus you've got grub Hub. 235 00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:55.840 Can that turn into Papa Murphy's. 236 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:00.399 I don't think so. I think those were two sepsk. 237 00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:04.399 The average price of a large pizza at the top 238 00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:08.519 five chains is eighteen dollars. That overall check jump nearly 239 00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:11.639 thirty percent since twenty nineteen. I mean, it all goes 240 00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:15.200 to your point that pizza is getting more expensive. Part 241 00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:18.399 of it is the problem of the raw materials obviously 242 00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:22.799 are getting more expensive. Pizza re is the average meal 243 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:26.559 cost between thirty one and fifty dollars per person. They 244 00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:28.679 saw a forty three percent increase in the number of 245 00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:30.960 diners in the first three months of twenty twenty five. 246 00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:34.840 But the top ten percent of US households now account 247 00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:37.679 for half of all consumer spending. That's the highest in 248 00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:40.320 the information that goes all the way back to nineteen 249 00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:45.039 eighty nine. So how the current pizza trend is, which 250 00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:49.960 is again that takeout delivery pizza is down a couple 251 00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:54.919 of percentage points. That could potentially have some bad indications 252 00:12:54.919 --> 00:12:56.720 for the bigger economy. 253 00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:58.519 As we go farther into this year. 254 00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:04.600 I thought that and divorces were most popular in the 255 00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:06.679 new year, like people. 256 00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:08.919 Make it through Monday of Yeah. 257 00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:11.399 I remember doing a story years ago as a reporter 258 00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:15.559 and talking interviewing a defense lawyer who is in Hollywood. 259 00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:18.679 He does like high profile divorces, and he'd been around 260 00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:21.919 decades and he said, oh, yeah, January's definitely our most 261 00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:24.759 popular month because people get through Christmas and they're like, 262 00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:27.399 all right, I can't do it anymore. But that's not 263 00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:30.879 the case anymore. We'll tell you when divorces tend to 264 00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:32.519 spike in the year. 265 00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:35.919 When we come back, Gary and Shannon will continue. 266 00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:41.320 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI AM. 267 00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:42.159 Six forty. 268 00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:46.440 Republicans have been trying to urge them to settle their 269 00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:51.159 very public dispute. The feud between Trump and must probably 270 00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:54.919 best described as a as a moving target. The Trump 271 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.720 administration is asking the Supreme Court to pause a court 272 00:13:57.799 --> 00:14:00.720 order that would reinstate Education Department employees were fired in 273 00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:03.720 mass layoffs as part of the plan to dismantle the 274 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:07.559 education Department. The Justice Department's emergency appeal to the Supreme 275 00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:11.080 Court said that the district judge in Boston exceeded his 276 00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:14.679 authority last month when he usued a preliminary injunction to 277 00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:17.360 reverse the layoffs of nearly fourteen hundred people and put 278 00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:20.799 the whole the big broad plan on hold for the 279 00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:21.279 most part. 280 00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:25.360 Hey, guys, I used to live up in Sacramento area, 281 00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:28.159 and from what I gathered from all the ogs up there, 282 00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:30.919 I'm talking about like people my mom's age, Papa Murphy's 283 00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:32.120 and Murphy's are the same thing. 284 00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:35.240 They just went through some sort of name change and 285 00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:35.960 had some. 286 00:14:36.039 --> 00:14:41.919 Lawsuits to do with the Papa whatever down here pizza chain, 287 00:14:42.200 --> 00:14:44.399 so they just changed the names or whatever. 288 00:14:44.759 --> 00:14:47.279 I've not first hand knowledge. It's just I heard this 289 00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:49.039 from my aunts and all that stuff up there. 290 00:14:49.720 --> 00:14:50.480 Get on out. 291 00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:53.759 Here, I think now you gots go on gone get 292 00:14:53.960 --> 00:14:55.000 is the way we're going to say. 293 00:14:55.120 --> 00:14:55.240 So. 294 00:14:55.360 --> 00:15:02.240 Papa Murphy's is the combination of two taken bake pizza companies. 295 00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:05.320 It was Papa Aldo's Pizza. 296 00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:08.879 I've never heard of Papa and Murphy's pizza, so they 297 00:15:08.919 --> 00:15:13.440 combined it and made it Papa Murphy's Pizza because we 298 00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:15.440 had a couple of people who said it's not just 299 00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:19.840 Murphy's pizza. So there was originally just a Murphy's Pizza 300 00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:23.159 taken Bake, but also a Papa Aldo's Pizza taken Bake. 301 00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:26.039 I think I remember where the Murphy's Taken Bake was 302 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:27.519 in my hometown. 303 00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:31.720 They traced back to eighty one. Papa Aldo's Pizza chain 304 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:35.559 was founded in Hillsboro, Oregon. In eighty one, Murphy's Pizza 305 00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:39.080 began operating in Petaluma, California, in nineteen eighty four. 306 00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:41.000 Wow, that's funny. 307 00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:44.679 And then they combined into what now is known as 308 00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:48.519 Papa Murphy's in two thousand and three, voted best pizza 309 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:52.600 chain in America by Restaurants and Institutions magazine. 310 00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:55.480 Well, I think we got to get a Papa Murphy's 311 00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:56.759 pizza at some point. 312 00:15:56.919 --> 00:15:59.759 We don't have to, I mean, just for research. Probably 313 00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:01.200 today summer summer. 314 00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:03.679 Yeah, go on, get down, pizza. 315 00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:07.080 We've got to get you into swimsuit readiness. 316 00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:08.919 How would we know what that looks like? 317 00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:14.039 Oh, we know, I think we know, all right, divorces, 318 00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:17.519 if you don't look good in that swimsuit, that's that's 319 00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:20.799 the next day your wife might cut the cord. 320 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:24.440 They say that there is a. 321 00:16:24.399 --> 00:16:28.960 Pattern emerging that divorce filings hit two peaks per year. 322 00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:34.120 One is in late summer and the other is in 323 00:16:34.279 --> 00:16:35.279 early spring. 324 00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:37.919 They interviewed. 325 00:16:37.960 --> 00:16:44.000 The MPR reporter interviewed a divorced father of two. He 326 00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:47.679 is a family law attorney. He has twenty five years 327 00:16:47.679 --> 00:16:51.279 in the business, and he says it's a very seasonal business, 328 00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:55.440 similar to the rush CPA's face. Coming tax Day in April, 329 00:16:56.039 --> 00:16:59.639 his firm has twenty seven offices across nine states, and 330 00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:03.080 he's been keeping meticulous records on the influx of new 331 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:05.640 clients for the last decade, and he says every year 332 00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.720 we see the same thing no matter what state we're 333 00:17:08.759 --> 00:17:11.759 looking at. That while January is often referred to as 334 00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.200 divorce month, like we were talking about. 335 00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:16.160 It's one of the slowest months of the year for 336 00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:17.160 lawyers at his firm. 337 00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:20.519 That's funny, he said, in December and January, parties just 338 00:17:20.559 --> 00:17:23.559 don't tend to initiate divorce and family law proceedings. It's 339 00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:27.559 a drop off of fifty percent. Whether they're celebrating Christmas 340 00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:30.759 or Honeka or Kwansa, the New year's folks usually put 341 00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:32.039 these cases on hold. 342 00:17:32.880 --> 00:17:39.000 They refer to the domestic ritual calendar that drives when 343 00:17:39.119 --> 00:17:42.400 people would file for divorce. Once the holidays pass, there's 344 00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:46.119 usually spring break, you got to think about family summer vacations. 345 00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:50.599 Once those have tapered off, married couples can act and 346 00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:53.119 they'll usually do so. And again I refer to that 347 00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:56.519 domestic ritual calendar. One of those domestic rituals is the 348 00:17:56.559 --> 00:18:01.599 beginning of the school year every fall. At that guy's firm, 349 00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:03.920 he sees a drop of about thirty to fifty percent 350 00:18:04.119 --> 00:18:07.839 in divorce filings during the important family bonding times of 351 00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:11.720 the year, but that they do spike. University Washington analyze 352 00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:15.240 divorce filing information from across that state from twenty one 353 00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:18.400 to twenty fifteen and said they consistently peak in the 354 00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.240 month of March and in the month of August. 355 00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:23.240 Interesting. 356 00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:26.880 The study examined information from all but two of Washington's 357 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:27.880 thirty nine counties. 358 00:18:28.079 --> 00:18:28.759 I didn't know this. 359 00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:32.000 You can end a marriage by mail in Washington State 360 00:18:32.519 --> 00:18:33.559 for the most part. 361 00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:34.599 He said that. 362 00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:38.960 Actually, I'm Julie Brian's is the one who said this. 363 00:18:39.559 --> 00:18:45.240 She's a sociology professor, and she said that people tend 364 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:50.400 to face the holidays with rising expectations, despite what disappointments 365 00:18:50.400 --> 00:18:51.960 they may have had in years past. 366 00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:54.640 People are chronically optimistic. Wow. 367 00:18:55.400 --> 00:18:58.039 They represent periods in the year when there's this anticipation 368 00:18:58.200 --> 00:19:00.400 or even the opportunity for a new beginning, a new start, 369 00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:03.279 something different, transition into a new period of life. It's 370 00:19:03.319 --> 00:19:05.720 like an optimism cycle in a sense, and then they're 371 00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:09.440 completely let down and whatever faith they had in their 372 00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:10.680 fellow spouse or whatever. 373 00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:14.359 Are you looking at your spouseroid that I don't even 374 00:19:14.359 --> 00:19:16.160 think you're looking necessarily at the spouse. 375 00:19:16.160 --> 00:19:18.480 You're looking at the bigger picture of life. Oh could 376 00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:22.119 be a whole happy family. Oh wow, something like that. 377 00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:23.200 That sounds exhausting. 378 00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:31.440 The president of the Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts dismisses 379 00:19:31.480 --> 00:19:34.599 the idea that discontented couples hold out on splitting up 380 00:19:34.599 --> 00:19:37.799 over sentimental reasons. He says the idea that the divorce 381 00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:39.839 is peak in March because it's right after the joint 382 00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:43.000 tax returns her filed, or every August because it's the 383 00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:45.319 end of summer you just came home from family vacation, 384 00:19:46.160 --> 00:19:50.960 is inaccurate. Cara Lee says that the numbers of filings 385 00:19:50.960 --> 00:19:53.240 in any given month doesn't indicate much. It's just that 386 00:19:53.279 --> 00:19:56.279 many states have specific waiting periods before you can even 387 00:19:56.319 --> 00:19:57.319 serve the other party. 388 00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:01.000 There is a more important pattern, they say that has 389 00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:04.039 emerged in recent decades, and it's the average age of 390 00:20:04.079 --> 00:20:05.400 people getting divorced. 391 00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:07.240 Listen to this. 392 00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:11.200 The only demographic in the US that has seen an 393 00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:15.119 increase in divorce rates are those people over the age 394 00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:19.839 of fifty. It's doubled since nineteen ninety and it's tripled 395 00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:22.480 for people over the age of sixty and the same 396 00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:29.480 period gray divorces. Why, well, we're living longer. Sixty is 397 00:20:29.519 --> 00:20:30.319 the new forty. 398 00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:30.599 But I. 399 00:20:32.599 --> 00:20:33.599 Got a big problem with that. 400 00:20:34.599 --> 00:20:35.039 What's that? 401 00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:36.839
