Speaker 1: This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to kf
Speaker 1: I AM six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show on
Speaker 1: demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2: Amy, do you have a Oh, she left, she could
Speaker 2: be anywhere. I need a brush. I forgot to brush
Speaker 2: my hair this morning.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say something seems a bit off.
Speaker 2: I know, well, I appreciate you not saying anything.
Speaker 4: It's almost like you've been rubbing a balloon on your
Speaker 4: head for a while.
Speaker 2: I know, I don't know why I left the hat.
Speaker 1: I thought I had a brush in the in the purse,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I'll just brush my hair in
Speaker 1: the car. I mean, I showered, I did the whole thing.
Speaker 1: I did brush my hair at some point, but then,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 3: You didn't spend a lot. I didn't.
Speaker 2: I didn't brush before I left.
Speaker 3: Everything looks fine. Okay, you're on the radio.
Speaker 4: Too, so right, But I don't want I think everybody.
Speaker 3: Okay, wait, it's storm week. Did you know that? No?
Speaker 2: What does that mean?
Speaker 4: Not just storm week because of a potential tropical Storm Helene,
Speaker 4: but also Tropical Storm John the western coast of Mexico
Speaker 4: and the geomagnetic storm that's going to hit Earth. What
Speaker 4: does that mean? Oh, well, there was a coronal mass ejection.
Speaker 2: Is that like when mercury is in retrograde?
Speaker 1: Not quite as Jacob's cycle is all messed up.
Speaker 4: I mean, this is a lot more physical than Jacob's Mensi's,
Speaker 4: but it when plasma and magnetic particles burst from the
Speaker 4: Sun's that's the coronal mass ejection.
Speaker 2: And they do say it's a relatively minor storm.
Speaker 1: I feel like you just want to say coronal mass
Speaker 1: ejection as many times as possible. Yes, under the guise
Speaker 1: of sounding smart, but you're a deep.
Speaker 4: You would say c me because nobody knows what that means.
Speaker 4: But everybody at least tracks with the coronal mass ejection.
Speaker 4: So there's a lot going on this story.
Speaker 1: It can cause anomalies and disruptions to modern conveniences.
Speaker 3: Yeah, electronics, GPS.
Speaker 1: Would it be great if everyone's phone just not blew up?
Speaker 5: Wait?
Speaker 2: What well if everyone's phone has stopped working just.
Speaker 1: For a while, even just for like an hour and
Speaker 1: a half, and just to get some calm.
Speaker 3: President Biden spoke to the UN today.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I heard bits of this, and I thought to myself,
Speaker 1: why are we doing this? It's like when people run
Speaker 1: to Jimmy Carter with a microphone and how are you?
Speaker 1: How's your current uti? You know, just let these people
Speaker 1: live out their days well.
Speaker 4: Among other things, he admonished the people in the room
Speaker 4: to make sure that they love their countries more than
Speaker 4: they love power.
Speaker 6: Take my nation forward, my fellow leaders, Let's never forget
Speaker 6: some things are more important than staying in power.
Speaker 3: It's your people.
Speaker 4: Obviously, he spent a lot of time talking about the
Speaker 4: current conflict in the Middle East with Israel and Hesbellah
Speaker 4: and Hamas, but also talked about our withdrawal from Afghanistan
Speaker 4: from a few years ago.
Speaker 6: And I said, faced that decision, but I was determined
Speaker 6: not to leave it to what we're doing. Was the
Speaker 6: decision accompanied by tragedy. Thirteen brave Americans lost their lives
Speaker 6: along with hundreds of Afghans and a suicide bomb.
Speaker 2: I think those lost lives. I think them every day.
Speaker 2: And then the ceasefire bit over and over again.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's one hundred and twenty day, one hundred and
Speaker 4: eighteen days left in his administration. One hundred and eighteen days.
Speaker 1: I mean, even from a few months ago when he
Speaker 1: dropped out, there's been a decline and this is what happens.
Speaker 1: Should we all be lucky enough to live that long.
Speaker 1: This is a good chance it's going to happen. The
Speaker 1: decline is pretty quickly. Happens pretty quickly.
Speaker 4: This was not a this was his farewell address. I mean, basically,
Speaker 4: on the world stage, this is likely going to be
Speaker 4: his last major speech that is heard by by foreign leaders,
Speaker 4: And I mean, I don't know what to say. I
Speaker 4: listened to the majority of it and was not moved
Speaker 4: by it. Not because he he doesn't have, you know,
Speaker 4: fifty years of public service behind him. But we are
Speaker 4: showing a weakness now on the international stage that I
Speaker 4: don't think we've shown in a very long time.
Speaker 1: You and I yesterday talked about the unseeriousness of the
Speaker 1: candidates right now in a very serious world, and when
Speaker 1: you look at the sitting president, that's another another reason
Speaker 1: why you're seeing so many people on the move. You're
Speaker 1: seeing Russians, the Russians and Chinese up there near Alaska,
Speaker 1: You're seeing what's going on in the Middle East. Everyone's
Speaker 1: acting out because the adult in America is not in
Speaker 1: the room.
Speaker 4: Did you also see this revelation from Brett Farv that
Speaker 4: he has Parkinson's. It's awful.
Speaker 3: This was in Congress today.
Speaker 5: Sadly, I also lost an investment in the company that
Speaker 5: I believed was developing a breakthrough concussion drug I thought
Speaker 5: would help others. And I'm sure you'll understand why it's
Speaker 5: too late for me, because I've recently been diagnosed with Parkinson's.
Speaker 5: This is also a cause dear to my heart. Recently,
Speaker 5: the doctor running the company pleaded guilty to taking tan
Speaker 5: If money for his own use. I believe that I
Speaker 5: got swept up in a civil lawsuit at the instigation
Speaker 5: of state Auditor Shad White, an ambitious public official who
Speaker 5: decided to tarnish my reputation to try to advance his
Speaker 5: own political career.
Speaker 4: He's talking about misuse of taxpayer funds and different things.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hope he's not using Parkinson's as an excuse
Speaker 1: for a little bit of his involvement in this, and
Speaker 1: I don't think the case.
Speaker 4: But it is the first time that he's publicly acknowledged
Speaker 4: something like this. So just a sad note in terms
Speaker 4: of a very public disclosure of a very personal battle
Speaker 4: that he's going through. All Right, I mentioned the storms
Speaker 4: Hurricane Helene, not yet Hurricane Helene. But we have every
Speaker 4: expectation that the storm that's bruin in the Caribbean is
Speaker 4: going to get even stronger and absolutely punch Florida in
Speaker 4: the throat.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about what's going on to get ready for
Speaker 3: that storm.
Speaker 2: Gary and Shannon will return. Amy. Do you have a brush? Yes?
Speaker 2: Can I borrow it? I mean, I love the hesitation,
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it. Will you totally?
Speaker 7: I'm trying to know if I have my brush or
Speaker 7: if I moved it into another bag, but I will
Speaker 7: check and get back.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Amy, Amy, didn't you brush your hair today?
Speaker 1: I forgot I was I thought it was in my
Speaker 1: purse and I was just gonna do it in the car,
Speaker 1: and then I realized that I left the brush in
Speaker 1: the bathroom.
Speaker 7: You're like that kid who goes to school and because
Speaker 7: dude in your mom brush your hair.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you should see the way Gary's looking at
Speaker 1: me since I sat down.
Speaker 8: Good morning, Gary and Shannon. This is Maggie from the
Speaker 8: throat of Florida, preparing my home for the potential punch.
Speaker 8: I'm not scared, but can y'all keep my mom in
Speaker 8: your thoughts. She's back in the Midwest. Freaking out. This
Speaker 8: is my second hurricane. I don't know, guys, that's up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hope it doesn't get that bad. Pretty big
Speaker 1: fan of y'all. Entering the lexicon of the program, this.
Speaker 4: Is the way it sounds in Tampa, where they're getting
Speaker 4: ready for what could be major Hurricane Helene the next
Speaker 4: couple of days.
Speaker 9: When I tell you, I went to Sam's Club today
Speaker 9: in Tampa and the employees couldn't even set down the
Speaker 9: palette of water in the center of the aisle before
Speaker 9: people were ripping cases of water off of the palettes.
Speaker 2: We spoke to some of those people to see what
Speaker 2: they're doing to prepare.
Speaker 4: I'm actually going to the Panhandle, so I'm expecting the worst,
Speaker 4: but preparing.
Speaker 10: When people see this, some think of loading up on water,
Speaker 10: but for Angie Villa Rosa, it takes her right back
Speaker 10: to twenty eighteen when Hurricane Michael ripped through the Panhandle,
Speaker 10: an area she says still isn't the same almost six
Speaker 10: years later. Villa Rosa says this time she's preparing differently,
Speaker 10: focusing less on meat and more on water.
Speaker 3: Definitely water.
Speaker 7: I have some power aid hiding under here, because that's
Speaker 7: definitely needed.
Speaker 8: Because it's super hot with aut air conditioner eggs, something
Speaker 8: easy to keep and make on your ground.
Speaker 2: That's a good report, by the way. That was a
Speaker 2: good report.
Speaker 1: Started with that word picture of people grabbing the water
Speaker 1: off the off the palette and differently preparing those Well.
Speaker 3: Done, you're going to continue.
Speaker 4: I mean she goes on it. I mean all right,
Speaker 4: baby formula and stuff. That's good.
Speaker 2: All right, so right now local report, Yeah, this is good.
Speaker 2: Right now.
Speaker 1: It's about one hundred and fifty miles west of Grand Cayman,
Speaker 1: Wins just at thirty five miles per hour, so no
Speaker 1: biggie tomorrow. They say that the center is supposed to
Speaker 1: make its closest approach to Cancun Cosamel. With the surge,
Speaker 1: flooding and just bands of rain and wind over and
Speaker 1: over and over hammering this area. It's going to intensify
Speaker 1: when it gets to the eastern Gulf on Thursday.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they're talking about it making landfall somewhere along
Speaker 4: the goat of the Gulf coast of Florida as a
Speaker 4: large major hurricane late Thursday afternoon into sometime Thursday night.
Speaker 3: They said the most likely location.
Speaker 4: Listen, it's still a wide swath that they're looking at
Speaker 4: in terms of where it could make landfall, but that
Speaker 4: the most likely location is in the Big Bend region,
Speaker 4: and that often the center itself, the eye of the hurricane,
Speaker 4: is not where the majority the majority of damage would be.
Speaker 1: The highest storm surge is expected along into the east
Speaker 1: of where the center makes landfall, So for now that
Speaker 1: appears to be the Big Bend, Apple Chi Bay nature
Speaker 1: coast of Florida. They say some surge inundation could top ten.
Speaker 4: Feet and Ron DeSantis, the governor, has already declared emergencies.
Speaker 2: I think it's sixty one counties now.
Speaker 11: Now do it anticipate that it will intensify before it
Speaker 11: makes landfall. We do anticipate it's going to form the
Speaker 11: next twelve to twenty four hours. We also anticipate arms
Speaker 11: going to move pretty quickly once it gets beyond the
Speaker 11: Yucatan and Cuba.
Speaker 4: Helene would be the eighth named storm of the twenty
Speaker 4: four Atlantic hurricane season, the fourth to make landfall in
Speaker 4: the United States. Borough struck south of Houston as a
Speaker 4: high end Category one. Debbie hit the Big Bend to
Speaker 4: Florida as a Category one.
Speaker 3: In August.
Speaker 4: Francine made landfall southwest southwest of New Orleans, just a
Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago. And this all taken place while
Speaker 4: there's yet another hurricane. This one landed in Mexico or
Speaker 4: made landfall, you want to say it. It was downgraded
Speaker 4: pretty quickly to a tropical storm once it made it
Speaker 4: to land, but it weakened after it made a Category
Speaker 4: three Category three landfall. Most of the effects on that
Speaker 4: one on the west coast of Mexico felt from the
Speaker 4: coast of Wahaka down to a capoulcoat.
Speaker 1: And then, of course, the coronal mass ejection. Can't forget
Speaker 1: that it can be strong enough to disturb the Earth's magnetosphere,
Speaker 1: producing geo magnetic storms powerful enough to cause both the
Speaker 1: northern lights and widespread telecommunications disruptions.
Speaker 2: There was a sun spot. This would have been Sunday.
Speaker 4: A sun spot called AR thirty eight to thirty five
Speaker 4: unexpectedly spouted an M class solar flare.
Speaker 2: Come and get us, get us.
Speaker 4: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says that the coronal
Speaker 4: mass ejection induced geomagnetic weather would simply be a g one.
Speaker 2: Oh if that doesn't sound like it's going to get us.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a minor class storm.
Speaker 4: It's the weakest of the five categories that they watch
Speaker 4: for when they look at the coronal mass ejections.
Speaker 1: It can't wipe out earth anyway, unfortunately, the sun or
Speaker 1: this sci coronal mass ejection it's going to do.
Speaker 3: Just fry your phone.
Speaker 1: Hey, we got an announcement. This is important and it
Speaker 1: evolves diary.
Speaker 2: It doesn't have to. You could just take the day
Speaker 2: off or just skip out or work from home.
Speaker 4: Work from home in quotes, leafy greens and poultry are
Speaker 4: the top two foods that induce food poisoning.
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't wash your hands after you cut up
Speaker 1: that raw chicken and I, I mean that's your story. Oh,
Speaker 1: I forgot to wash my hands when I cut up
Speaker 1: that raw chicken.
Speaker 4: And I did see a study that also suggested that
Speaker 4: white wine specifically can help prevent food borne illnesses.
Speaker 3: Wow. Yeah, I'm not saying that that's the reason.
Speaker 1: Because it just kills the bacteria.
Speaker 4: Wine, particularly white wine, is found to help kill E.
Speaker 4: Coli and salmonella, and recent experiments that were done. See
Speaker 4: that was my scientist. That was my problem.
Speaker 1: When I went to Mexico City, I had no white
Speaker 1: wine for like a weekend, which my body revolted against
Speaker 1: and gave me e coal.
Speaker 4: I promptly, your immune system had been punched in the
Speaker 4: throat by.
Speaker 2: The lac did not have wine.
Speaker 4: All right, Jason Lee has dropped a couple of bombshells
Speaker 4: in terms of the celebrities that were probably at some
Speaker 4: of P Diddy's parties.
Speaker 3: This celebrity list.
Speaker 2: He just threw everyone under that bus.
Speaker 4: The bus needs to be one of those big articulated buses.
Speaker 4: It needs to be a big, big bus, Jerome Betti
Speaker 4: style bus.
Speaker 2: Oh I like that. That's a throwback.
Speaker 3: Thursday.
Speaker 4: Day after tomorrow, we're doing another News and Bruse. We're
Speaker 4: going to be live at BJ's Restaurant and brew House
Speaker 4: in Huntington Beach. This will be the one on Beach Boulevard,
Speaker 4: so it's right off the four oh five freeways. Easy
Speaker 4: to get to. Come on out, grab an early lunch
Speaker 4: or late. I don't care where you do it, but
Speaker 4: just grab a lunch, hang out with us. We got
Speaker 4: some stuff that we're giving away, all kinds of tickets
Speaker 4: to all kinds of places that will be giving away,
Speaker 4: but also some Gary and Shannon show swag that you
Speaker 4: can get your hands on.
Speaker 1: What are we going to eat? Why should I not
Speaker 1: play on? I shouldn't plan that right now?
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, why stray from what works, right? I mean,
Speaker 4: we could try something else, but a sweet pig pizza costes.
Speaker 2: It's really good. And I like that spicy crust.
Speaker 1: Ye.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the thin crust is a way to go. I
Speaker 4: wouldn't have gone that way, I know. And then you
Speaker 4: were happy, and then I was very happy. Yeah, because
Speaker 4: you can eat more. The dock workers on the East
Speaker 4: Coast and Gulf Coasts are threatening to strike next week.
Speaker 4: Businesses have been accelerating imports, They've been redirecting cargo. They're
Speaker 4: trying to get the Biden administration to prevent a walkout.
Speaker 4: They're saying that a lot of people, a lot of
Speaker 4: importers started ordering Christmas goods four months earlier than usual
Speaker 4: to get them through the ports before a strike takes place.
Speaker 4: Many shipments have been diverted to West Coast ports. Of course,
Speaker 4: dock workers belong to a different union out here, and
Speaker 4: that union agreed to a new contract last year, and
Speaker 4: the ports of La and Long Beach right now say
Speaker 4: they are handling at least as many containers as they
Speaker 4: did during the pandemic shipping boom of twenty one and
Speaker 4: twenty two. The view on the economy tumbled this month,
Speaker 4: falling by the largest level in more than three years.
Speaker 4: Fears are growing about jobs and business conditions. The Conference
Speaker 4: Board said. The consumer confidence index slid to ninety eight
Speaker 4: point seven. That's down from one oh five point six
Speaker 4: in August, the biggest one month decline that we have
Speaker 4: seen since the middle of the COVID pandemic. Each of
Speaker 4: the five components the organization samples fared worse on the month,
Speaker 4: the biggest fall coming among those people aged thirty five
Speaker 4: to fifty four who earn less than fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Jason Lee the actor, of course, you know him from
Speaker 1: Chasing Amy Maul rats different Jason, Oh yeah.
Speaker 3: Who is this?
Speaker 4: This guy's a radio guy part time route. Oh wow.
Speaker 1: The whole time I thought this was Jason Lee the actor. No,
Speaker 1: but this is still that's funny because I would have
Speaker 1: never put him at one of these parties, which has
Speaker 1: made it notable for me.
Speaker 2: I was like, what's he doing there?
Speaker 3: It was quite a surprise.
Speaker 2: Oh that's funny. Okay, this is.
Speaker 4: A guy who in an Instagram live just a couple
Speaker 4: of days ago, was commenting on on the Diddy outbreak
Speaker 4: of information.
Speaker 1: Okay, Jason Lee, podcaster, reality TV guy and the founder
Speaker 1: of Hollywood Unlocked one of those gossip rags.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was in Love and Hip Hop Hollywood a
Speaker 4: couple of years. That's kind of where he was known from.
Speaker 4: He's got a podcast, he actually and I don't know
Speaker 4: if he still is. He was talking about running for
Speaker 4: city council up in Stockton.
Speaker 3: Of all plays with his hometown.
Speaker 4: Anyway, This guy does an Instagram live and spills the
Speaker 4: beans on what was going on at these didty parties.
Speaker 4: And I mean just the list of the people that
Speaker 4: he says were there. He says, I've seen Jay Z,
Speaker 4: I've seen Bishop td Jakes, I've seen Chris Brown, I've
Speaker 4: seen Jordan Woods, Traffic, Scott Beyonce, Teyana Taylor, Usher, Debaby,
Speaker 4: Justin Bieber, Ashton Kutcher, Lindsay Low and Demi Moore, Tyressee,
Speaker 4: Amber Rose, Mary j Blige.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's got the entire list, he said.
Speaker 1: But just because you went to a ditty party didn't
Speaker 1: mean you were getting sprayed down with vasoline and baby oil.
Speaker 2: He said.
Speaker 1: You know these these parties were well attended by everyone
Speaker 1: who had no idea about the dark underworld of what
Speaker 1: was going on, and maybe the after party.
Speaker 4: Well, he makes a point about this that I think
Speaker 4: is interesting. He says, I was in the backyard the
Speaker 4: whole time. I mean, you imagine whatever ditty house has
Speaker 4: this magnificent party party.
Speaker 1: Backyard, your backyard, my backyard. It's probably a palatial, massive backyard.
Speaker 4: There are a couple maybe three outdoor kitchens and bar areas,
Speaker 4: and a grotto of some kind in the massive grottos.
Speaker 2: Now you just made it even dirtier.
Speaker 4: Stay out of the grotto. Kids, don't do drugs, and
Speaker 4: stay out of the grotto. But most of what did
Speaker 4: he's accused of doing wasn't even at home.
Speaker 3: It was all in hotels.
Speaker 4: Then a lot of this stuff was done on the
Speaker 4: road somewhere or in a place where he couldn't necessarily
Speaker 4: be connected to it.
Speaker 1: But what about when his mansions were raided and the
Speaker 1: officers found the sex rooms with the cameras in all angles.
Speaker 1: That wasn't just for marital age, I don't know, like marital.
Speaker 3: Times, marital times.
Speaker 1: If you have a sex room with nineteen different cameras,
Speaker 1: at every angle. You're just holes my wife, No, you're
Speaker 1: not doing wholesome things. He was doing all this stuff
Speaker 1: in his homes.
Speaker 4: I've seen a couple classy movies where it's just between
Speaker 4: a husband and wife.
Speaker 2: He was doing this stuff everywhere. Did he was.
Speaker 1: In his homes where everyone was going. I mean, you
Speaker 1: mean to tell me none of these people saw anything untoward.
Speaker 1: Nothing at these parties made you go.
Speaker 4: Huh, well, it's what you're willing to ignore.
Speaker 3: It's to be seen in those same parties.
Speaker 1: Like you see all the young girls before they start
Speaker 1: being used as sex slaves, and you don't go, what
Speaker 1: are all these I don't know, though, I don't live
Speaker 1: in this world. Maybe this is a Tuesday. Maybe these
Speaker 1: parties are you know, the way that the rich entertain themselves.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, all you said it last week.
Speaker 4: If this is more than just it's this guy doing
Speaker 4: something wrong, hundreds of people who are willing to look
Speaker 4: the other way.
Speaker 2: So people who work.
Speaker 1: At these massive mansions, the staff, the guys that come in,
Speaker 1: the people that see that. I mean, there was a
Speaker 1: lot of people that knew what was going on. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I said it. I can accept that one person is
Speaker 1: a monster, or there's a handful of people the Epstein's
Speaker 1: of the world, the ditties that are Weinstein monsters. But
Speaker 1: the enablers are the people who really sicken me.
Speaker 4: The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is
Speaker 4: for good men, good people to do.
Speaker 2: Nothing is that from Jesus.
Speaker 3: No, but it is a.
Speaker 4: Perfect way to describe the group of people who enable,
Speaker 4: like you said, enable this kind of behavior. A couple
Speaker 4: of sports headlines today, it looks like the PAC twelve
Speaker 4: is going to be the PAC seven or eight now
Speaker 4: for the PAC twelve used to be or this season
Speaker 4: was Washington State and Oregon State because everybody else defected,
Speaker 4: but they're rebuilding and Utah State has reportedly accepted the
Speaker 4: invite to join the Rebuilding Conference. So along with Oregon State,
Speaker 4: Washington State, Utah State, Boise State, Fresno State, San Diego State,
Speaker 4: and Colorado State, that would be the PAC seven of twelve.
Speaker 4: So Padres Dodgers tonight kick off a three game series
Speaker 4: between the two.
Speaker 3: Teams at the top of the National League West. Padres
Speaker 3: are just three games back.
Speaker 4: You can listen to every play on AM five seventy
Speaker 4: LA Sports Live from the Galvin Motors broadcast booth and
Speaker 4: stream all the games n HD on that iHeartRadio app
Speaker 4: use the keyword AM five seventy LA.
Speaker 2: Sports got a text from Jen. She says, I'll have
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: I woke up this morning with Rise and Shine and
Speaker 1: Give God the Glory Glory playing on repeat in my brain.
Speaker 1: Song has been buried within the deepest recesses of my
Speaker 1: skull for approximately thirty five years, and now it's back
Speaker 1: thanks to you and your carelessness. How is this wrong, dude,
Speaker 1: and wrongdoing going to be rectified? There's nothing wrong with
Speaker 1: rising and shining and giving God your glory glory.
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 12: Absolutely, Hi, Gary, Shannon's Chuck and Jesse. I'm back to
Speaker 12: the truck. Yeah, I'm with Shannon. Come get us, let
Speaker 12: the sun wipe us out. You need a reset. Hopefully
Speaker 12: there will not be any documentation, no no, no posts
Speaker 12: from X and they can. Whoever makes it starts with
Speaker 12: stretch preset to see.
Speaker 2: Ya, see ya, see you on the other side. Jesse.
Speaker 4: Maybe maybe what if you don't make it to the
Speaker 4: other side? What do you mean, well, I mean you
Speaker 4: he's talking about setting the plant right, it's just starting over.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean there would be some people. I suppose
Speaker 3: there was.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to meet Jesse at the right hand
Speaker 2: of the Lord in heaven.
Speaker 4: Oh well, I don't know if you're getting If you're
Speaker 4: getting that far, that's what you were saying, Oh the
Speaker 4: other side with God. I thought you had just meant
Speaker 4: like after the conflagration, like a Cormick McCarthy novel or something.
Speaker 1: You're operating on another level. The coronal mass ejection must
Speaker 1: have already gotten to you.
Speaker 3: Jog something loose up there.
Speaker 1: There is an upscale senior community Rossmore up in Contra
Speaker 1: Costa County in the Bay Area, and the Chronicle they
Speaker 1: write this community offers a chilling preview of where our
Speaker 1: country is headed if we can't start discussing our political differences.
Speaker 2: Civilly, there was a fistfight.
Speaker 1: Between two women on the pick pickleball court at this
Speaker 1: fifty five and over community.
Speaker 3: The ladies.
Speaker 1: You know what, Anne and I were talking about this,
Speaker 1: because Anne works at so Far as well on Sundays
Speaker 1: when the Rams and Chargers play, and she said it's
Speaker 1: the women, and I said, I've I think the same thing.
Speaker 1: The women are so much more violent and vicious in
Speaker 1: those stands.
Speaker 4: Do you see I get a kick out of only
Speaker 4: because I'm not involved with them. The fights that have
Speaker 4: taken place. These they're rams forty nine ers.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean, oh my god, what is It's weird.
Speaker 4: I am a huge fan and i love going and
Speaker 4: sharing for my team, but.
Speaker 3: I'm not about to.
Speaker 4: Will you take a punch from some three hundred and
Speaker 4: fifty pound uh drunk guy?
Speaker 2: Exactly?
Speaker 1: You haven't been drinking since six am and then you have.
Speaker 1: You're You're not as crazed as some fans.
Speaker 3: Even if I have.
Speaker 1: I've seen myself act and like where I'm floating and I'm.
Speaker 2: Like, who is that woman? Like, dial it back?
Speaker 1: It's just a football game, and I love her.
Speaker 3: Get them, honey.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the first year in many years
Speaker 1: that I'm trusting myself to go up to Seattle with
Speaker 1: one of my girlfriends. She's a Seahawks fan, and we're
Speaker 1: going to watch the Niners and it's a primetime game
Speaker 1: Thursday night.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm going to be off that day by
Speaker 2: the way I figured.
Speaker 1: But anyway, this is the first year in many years
Speaker 1: and I'm trusting myself to go up there and be
Speaker 1: with all those Seahawks fans because they're not the way
Speaker 1: that they used to.
Speaker 2: It was not like the Pete Carroll Jim Harby era.
Speaker 3: So they've changed.
Speaker 1: No, No, I've changed. I'm more mature. Now we'll see,
Speaker 1: we'll see. Put a pin in that anyway. The pickleball
Speaker 1: court where two women have gone to fisticuffs over Trump.
Speaker 4: This was July twenty third, the day that former President
Speaker 4: Trump survived his first assassination attempt, and according to several residents,
Speaker 4: one pro Trump pickler. Pickler blamed democratic rhetoric for the
Speaker 4: assassination attempt, while I'm anti Trumper made an inappropriate comment
Speaker 4: demeaning his near.
Speaker 3: Death experience pushing shoving.
Speaker 4: According to several residents there at Ross Moro has not
Speaker 4: to be identified so they could speak freely about the
Speaker 4: controversial issue. Punches were thrown and the combatants tumbled onto
Speaker 4: the hardwood basketball court, the doubles as the pickleball court.
Speaker 2: So now there are of hair.
Speaker 3: We're left on the ground.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: So now there are restrictions on public demonstrations any sort
Speaker 1: of political commentary. And now there's a fight from some
Speaker 1: residents who say their free speech is being impinged.
Speaker 2: They call the.
Speaker 1: Restrictions infantilizing for an age group whose members can be
Speaker 1: sensitive about being told what to do and what's best
Speaker 1: for them. It's like giving taking the free speech keys away.
Speaker 2: From grandma and grandpa.
Speaker 1: These are people who have marched, who been through civil
Speaker 1: rights assassinations Vietnam. These are experienced people who when you
Speaker 1: say no, you can't talk, you can't come, you can't
Speaker 1: express your opinions, Oh yes we can.
Speaker 4: We've been doing it our whole lives. I do not
Speaker 4: like it when people use the power and importance of
Speaker 4: the First Amendment to talk about issues like this. This
Speaker 4: is just people can't control themselves. This isn't First Amendment issues.
Speaker 4: Not the government stifling your speech or stifling your ability
Speaker 4: to criticize the government itself.
Speaker 2: This is not just the pickleball fight.

Speaker 1: received anonymous letters that were threatening in nature. They've researched
Speaker 1: in house newspapers at other large senior committees in Southern California.

Speaker 4: When you reach the autumn verging onto the winter of
Speaker 4: your year.
Speaker 1: Take t bingo and white wine spritzers. I can't wait

Speaker 4: and we were talking about people who get so energized
Speaker 4: by that political they believe that, and then they go
Speaker 4: home and their house is in a shambles, or their
Speaker 4: their relationships are just you know, they're upended because they
Speaker 4: can't they won't dedicate time to those things. They'll dedicate
Speaker 4: time to the political discussions. Yes, and it isn't There
Speaker 4: is an important ass Yes, there is this. There is
Speaker 4: an important part of it, but so much of it
Speaker 4: should depend on or so much more attention should be
Speaker 4: paid to your local races, the you know, your immediate
Speaker 4: congress member, your immediate legislation legislature member. Those things are
Speaker 4: the things you should be paying more attention to, because
