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.
Speaker 2: Gary, we had the same exact setup with the trap
Speaker 2: below the kitchen sink and everything go down to home depot.
Speaker 2: You buy the full attachment that goes on the indo
Speaker 2: your hose, eat it into the pipe, turn on the water.
Speaker 2: It expands and it blasts the cold blog bluckage out
Speaker 2: of there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they'll save a fortune, Yeah, and make an
Speaker 3: absolute mess.
Speaker 4: I've seen those before, I've seen them used before, and
Speaker 4: they just caused.
Speaker 1: I can see the look on your wife's face overseeing
Speaker 1: the project.
Speaker 5: Gary.
Speaker 6: You get a home depot to the tool section and
Speaker 6: you rent not a industrial snake.
Speaker 3: Not a bad idea.
Speaker 6: They're really not that hard to work with. You do
Speaker 6: it a couple of times a year and run everything
Speaker 6: and it's kind of a maintenance plan. We've done it
Speaker 6: in the past. It's not that intimate dating. I know
Speaker 6: you're very competent.
Speaker 5: Thank you.
Speaker 7: I appreciate that.
Speaker 8: See here my two cents.
Speaker 3: How many feet do you think you need?
Speaker 4: I think it's probably I would say minimum seventy five
Speaker 4: feet Okay, I've.
Speaker 1: Got a seventy foot here drain cleaner for four hours
Speaker 1: at sixty seven dollars.
Speaker 3: That would save you a fortune. That would save a
Speaker 3: lot of money.
Speaker 9: Gary.
Speaker 7: Hey, Shannon, I work construction. I can tell you right now,
Speaker 7: one hundred foot snake. You're looking at about four to
Speaker 7: five four to get a decent one.
Speaker 3: That's if it's weeks.
Speaker 7: I can eighty foot that I usually use. Those are
Speaker 7: running anywhere from six to about fifteen hundred dollars. Home depot,
Speaker 7: by the way, just call a plumber and get it done.
Speaker 3: I did home depot. You can run it for four hours.
Speaker 1: It goes up for as much time as you have
Speaker 1: it for, right, but for four hours if you get
Speaker 1: it done, which would be quick.
Speaker 3: But that's the longest. Is seventy foot that they seventy
Speaker 3: five foot? No, they have one hundred foot one.
Speaker 10: Good morning, guys, Welcome back, Shannon, go niners. Yeah, this
Speaker 10: is James the plumber of plumbing here.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Plumbing is are one of those great, great, great great
Speaker 10: careers where you don't have to worry about AI replacing
Speaker 10: you robots. You have to have these very skilled professionals
Speaker 10: come in and diagnose these problems. So yeah, it is
Speaker 10: a great look at the business to invest in. And uh,
Speaker 10: you guys have a great day. Keep clogging up those
Speaker 10: journeys so you can keep getting the space.
Speaker 3: That See, that's what I'm doing, is I'm helping small businesses.
Speaker 3: That's what you're doing.
Speaker 1: That's where you're basically holding up America on your shoulders.
Speaker 1: It's called because you believe in this country.
Speaker 3: Off monomics. All right, it's time for swamp watch.
Speaker 1: Swamps actually sounds better than it's.
Speaker 3: Like a reality TV show. Was a bad due always
Speaker 3: a pleasure to be anywhere from Washington, d C.
Speaker 4: Hey Joey, a town all too clearly built on a
Speaker 4: swamp and in so many ways still a swamps.
Speaker 9: A bunch of malarkey. Nobody said dream the swamp.
Speaker 3: I said, Oh, that's so I'll keep happen.
Speaker 10: You know the thing.
Speaker 1: Oh, Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump will both
Speaker 1: be in Pennsylvania on opposite sides of the state today.
Speaker 1: She'll be in the northwest corner of Eerie. He'll be
Speaker 1: in the suburbs of Philly.
Speaker 4: A lot of attention was paid over the weekend to
Speaker 4: some interviews that were done. One of them was a
Speaker 4: jd Vance interview with The New York Times.
Speaker 1: This was about the Venezuelans and the apartments in Aurora.
Speaker 4: Here's the thing about the generally, yes it was, I
Speaker 4: mean he mentioned that, but that was also with Martha
Speaker 4: Raddits from ABC. But there's there's a thing that we've
Speaker 4: seen that I've seen a lot of reaction to when
Speaker 4: it comes to JD Vance, which is, I mean, you
Speaker 4: said it after the debate that he had with Tim Walls.
Speaker 3: That's not the same guy that I thought he was.
Speaker 4: Jade Vance is a well spoken, well thought out guy. Again,
Speaker 4: you don't have to agree with his politics, but you
Speaker 4: gotta admit he's a different person than what was than
Speaker 4: the image that had been painted of him.
Speaker 1: It was an exceptional debate performance, and I realized that
Speaker 1: he is practiced at going on all these shows and
Speaker 1: doing the interviews and having the thoughts and the points
Speaker 1: ready to pull up, certainly more than Tim Walls has.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was impressed with the way he was
Speaker 1: able to articulate their positions and speak like a human.
Speaker 3: I didn't like that he called Bob Woodward a hack. Well,
Speaker 3: it's that he has a hard.
Speaker 4: Time sometimes He won't admit that Trump lost the twenty
Speaker 4: twenty election.
Speaker 3: I get it.
Speaker 4: I understand why he's not doing it, but it's one
Speaker 4: of those things that's an easily avoidable mistake. Now, he
Speaker 4: was on ABC's This Week Is This Week and I
Speaker 4: don't remember what the sun it was ABC's This Is
Speaker 4: with Martha Raddisy and the Sunday Morning Show, and she
Speaker 4: was asking about that discussion about immigrants taking over apartment
Speaker 4: complexes in Aurora colliber.
Speaker 11: We're limited to a handful of apartment complex apartment complexes,
Speaker 11: and the mayor said, our dedicated police officers have acted
Speaker 11: on those concerns a handful of problems.
Speaker 12: Only, Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a handful of
Speaker 12: apartment complexes in America were taken over by Venezuelan gangs.
Speaker 12: And Donald Trump is the problem and not Kamala Harris's
Speaker 12: open border.
Speaker 3: Americans are so.
Speaker 12: Fed up with what's going on, and they have every
Speaker 12: right to be. And I really find this exchange, Martha
Speaker 12: is sort of interesting because you seem to be more
Speaker 12: focused with nitpicking everything that Donald Trump has said, rather
Speaker 12: than acknowledging that apartment complexes in the United States of
Speaker 12: America are being taken over by violent gangs now.
Speaker 4: And that's all he had to say. He didn't have
Speaker 4: to get into any of the details. He didn't have
Speaker 4: to because Martha Raddis was the one who kind of
Speaker 4: set that up and said it's only a couple of
Speaker 4: apartment complexes that are being.
Speaker 3: That was a dumb thing for her to say.
Speaker 1: But I'm if you want to Nippick, go back in
Speaker 1: time and look at all the apartment complexes that have
Speaker 1: been taken over by gangs in this country.
Speaker 3: This is not a new problem.
Speaker 1: Look at Kabrini Green, Okay, like places that have been
Speaker 1: shut down because violent gangs have overcome them. This isn't
Speaker 1: just a Venezuelan immigrants, illegal immigration thing. This is just
Speaker 1: the way apartment buildings work sometimes in poor areas.
Speaker 4: This was one of the interviews that was done and
Speaker 4: there's going to be a new push, I think for
Speaker 4: these next couple of weeks where Kamala Harris is going
Speaker 4: to continue this media blitz that she started last week,
Speaker 4: and among other things, she's sitting down with Fox News
Speaker 4: coming up on Wednesday, She's going to sit down with
Speaker 4: Brett Baer for what would be a longer form interview.
Speaker 4: I don't think they're going to let him, sorry, let
Speaker 4: her get away with any of the answers that sixty minutes.
Speaker 3: Let her get over it for her to go on
Speaker 3: Fox News.
Speaker 1: I mean that is yeah, because you're absolutely right, you're
Speaker 1: not going to get the sixty minutes treatment there. I
Speaker 1: will watch what times at a three pm our time
Speaker 1: on Special Report.
Speaker 3: Okay, coming up next.
Speaker 1: It looks like Biden's staff and Kamala Harris's staff are
Speaker 1: at each other's throats.
Speaker 4: That's the weirdest palace intrigue story I saw over the weekend.
Speaker 1: Well you heard the same thing with Biden's people and
Speaker 1: Obama's people. And then earlier on in the administration, Tim Kates.
Speaker 3: Has had a lot of coffee.
Speaker 1: He's in a long week, long couple of weeks, and
Speaker 1: he's just howling like a freaking wolf in the hallways.
Speaker 1: But yeah, you kind of heard about the consternation between
Speaker 1: the staffs, and I wonder how common that is. It
Speaker 1: sounds like it's pretty common in Washington because everyone's cutthroat
Speaker 1: and looking to get ahead.
Speaker 4: They're just in it for themselves. Yeah, all right, swamp
Speaker 4: Watch continues.
Speaker 9: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 9: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: Do you know how the Jeopardy questions have been just
Speaker 1: very underwhelming, Like today's what is the three word example?
Speaker 1: For drugs that are not prescription? It's over the counter, right,
Speaker 1: It's just stupid, just stupid stuff. I've decided I'm gonna
Speaker 1: come up up with my own Jeopardy questions for you
Speaker 1: every day.
Speaker 3: Okay, here's today's. Oh, do you want me to play
Speaker 3: the thing? Yeah? Me warm up to it though.
Speaker 1: Which Pitcher holds the MLB record for consecutive scoreless innings pitched?
Speaker 1: It was fifty nine consecutive innings. And I'll give you
Speaker 1: a hint. No, you don't want to hint, Oral Hirschheiser.
Speaker 1: See how fun this is going to be.
Speaker 3: I'm having fun. I'm having fun. I am having a
Speaker 3: lot of fun. I do have good news.
Speaker 5: By the way, Hey Gary, a snake has had something
Speaker 5: to jack around with. You pay a guy to do it.
Speaker 5: I mean, it's cheap enough, and you can do a
Speaker 5: lot of damage with that snake. If you don't know
Speaker 5: what you're doing, it's well worth what you'll pay to
Speaker 5: have it done. Take care.
Speaker 4: Everything's fine. I can it's been done, project completed, very
Speaker 4: reasonable price. And like I said, from the time I
Speaker 4: called to the time it was complete, it was seventy
Speaker 4: five minutes. That's not days. Seventy five minutes, no mess.
Speaker 4: So I'll give a shout out to my friends at
Speaker 4: Shellback Plumbing. That's a rack because they did a great job.
Speaker 1: When I said it takes a while, I was thinking
Speaker 1: about the heating. Air people sometimes like your heating and
Speaker 1: your air will go out right the first time you
Speaker 1: use it because you haven't use it for.
Speaker 3: A while, and it's one hundred and nineteen and it's
Speaker 3: one hundred and.
Speaker 1: Nineteen degrees and they're like, sorry, Moose outfront, should have
Speaker 1: told you to call three months ago, Dumbassuh yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So all right, there's a there's a there's weird
Speaker 4: palace intrigue going on, and the I can understand there
Speaker 4: being conflict. If you have a president who is not
Speaker 4: running for president running for reelection and a vice president
Speaker 4: who is, you're going to have some political division inside
Speaker 4: that administration, and there.
Speaker 3: Is you can.
Speaker 4: Ascribe different motivations for it. Some in this Palace Intrigue novel,
Speaker 4: it's that Joe Biden is upset that Democrats in general
Speaker 4: forced him off of the top of the ticket, and
Speaker 4: he's taking it out on the woman who replaced him,
Speaker 4: his own vice president.
Speaker 1: He's appeared to undercut Harris at least four times in
Speaker 1: recent weeks. During these critical final stages of the election.
Speaker 3: He made a.
Speaker 1: Surprise White House briefing room appearance during one of her
Speaker 1: rallies and praised ron DeSantis' response to the hurricanes, while
Speaker 1: at the same time she was saying that DeSantis was
Speaker 1: playing politics with the storms. Now there's a new report
Speaker 1: from Axios with quotes from ten anonymous insiders that say
Speaker 1: resentment from bruised Biden aids has led to friction.
Speaker 4: Yeah, do they have time for friction? Do they have
Speaker 4: time to spend a lot of oxygen on feeling negative
Speaker 4: towards the Harris campaign?
Speaker 1: Harris, I don't believe it's a let's work together atmosphere
Speaker 1: in DC. Harris aids claim that the Biden team is
Speaker 1: deliberately not working with them, so they're too much in
Speaker 1: their feelings. A Harris ally says of Biden's team, Well,
Speaker 1: that is true. Trump is talking about it, talking about
Speaker 1: the relationship between Biden and Harris, says he can't stand
Speaker 1: her for one simple reason. She overthrew him, but smartly,
Speaker 1: he says, but she didn't do what the party did. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris had like nothing to do with this. This
Speaker 1: was Nancy Pelosi heavyweights.
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris.
Speaker 4: To to quote Senator John Kennedy from an interview I
Speaker 4: saw this morning, Kamala Harris was polling about as well
Speaker 4: as punching kittens. I mean, her favorability rating in say, April,
Speaker 4: May and June of this year was very, very low.
Speaker 4: And remember Democrats themselves, I mean, the party did not
Speaker 4: even elevate her to be close to.
Speaker 3: The nominee.
Speaker 4: When twenty twenty rolled around, she was out before the
Speaker 4: Iowa Caucasus. And that's not to say that she can't
Speaker 4: be the nominee now, but it's a very quick turnaround
Speaker 4: from what she was polling earlier in the year to
Speaker 4: what she is right now. The other thing is she's
Speaker 4: raised a billion dollars. Did you see that headline last week?
Speaker 4: She's raised a billion dollars since she got into the
Speaker 4: race at the end of July and is still tied.
Speaker 3: Wow, think about it.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's picked up the polls. I read this morning,
Speaker 1: he's picked up some steam.
Speaker 3: He's picked up steam.
Speaker 4: He's picked up steam in different places that were unexpected,
Speaker 4: whether it's Latino votes or black men, because that became
Speaker 4: such an issue last week. I mean, the fact that
Speaker 4: they're tied blows my mind. And it's only going to
Speaker 4: get I mean, is what to this three weeks.
Speaker 3: Weird thing going on on my street?
Speaker 1: So in my neighborhood, I should say, along the street
Speaker 1: that I drive to get home, there were a couple
Speaker 1: Harris Walls signs, just maybe two or three homes that
Speaker 1: had them sporadically along the main drag.
Speaker 3: And then in the.
Speaker 1: Past week, for every Harris Wall sign there's a Trump
Speaker 1: Fans sign. I was thinking at first, our people around
Speaker 1: here just don't want to be out and proud with
Speaker 1: their their Trump support. And I think there's this weird
Speaker 1: thing going on where those Harris Wall signs were out
Speaker 1: there three weeks ago, and within the past week the
Speaker 1: Trump fan signs of all gone up, and now it's
Speaker 1: fifty to fifty on the same stretch of neighborhood. I
Speaker 1: don't have a lot, and they're all it's all hopscotch,
Speaker 1: which is oh, I beckon wild?
Speaker 4: What house is one and the next house is the other,
Speaker 4: and vice versa all the way down.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's funny.
Speaker 4: Up next, an amazing moment yesterday that if you haven't
Speaker 4: seen the video, it did not look real when I
Speaker 4: saw it. We caught a rocket. We caught a rocket.
Speaker 4: We'll talk about what happened with SpaceX yesterday.
Speaker 9: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 9: Am six forty.
Speaker 4: A couple NASA spacecraft has actually blasted off on a
Speaker 4: journey to explore Jupiter's moon Europa and talk about what
Speaker 4: kind of hidden ocean might hold the keys to life there.
Speaker 4: SpaceX launched the Europa Clipper today from the Kennedy Space Center.
Speaker 4: It's going to take five and a half years for
Speaker 4: Clipper to reach Jupiter, and once there, it will orbit
Speaker 4: the giant planet, getting close to Europa during dozens of flybys.
Speaker 4: Five point two billion dollar mission. They said it's not
Speaker 4: looking for life, but rather the conditions necessary for it.
Speaker 4: Scientists say they're almost certain that there's a pretty deep
Speaker 4: ocean that exists beneath the icy crust that is Europa.
Speaker 4: But speaking of Florida and Cape Canaveral and the whole
Speaker 4: Space coast down there.
Speaker 3: Oh, let me play.
Speaker 8: That SpaceX has executed a complicated landing procedure for one
Speaker 8: of its rockets. One of the boosters on the Starship
Speaker 8: spacecraft successfully flew back to the launch site and was
Speaker 8: caught by giant metal arms what the company calls chopsticks
Speaker 8: super Happy Easter. The Starship itself splashed down in the
Speaker 8: Indian Ocean. Blue Origin, a competing private space company, stood
Speaker 8: down a planned launch around the same time, siting a
Speaker 8: GPS issue. Mike Debaski, ABC.
Speaker 4: News, So the video itself, incredible, was pretty dramatic, and
Speaker 4: it was great to hear everybody cheer that thing like
Speaker 4: it was a Super Bowl victory. I mean, they were
Speaker 4: so excited because again, as Kate Tye, she was the
Speaker 4: SpaceX manager of Quality Systems Engineering, during the live commentary,
Speaker 4: she said, it's insane. On our first ever attempt, we
Speaker 4: have successfully caught the super heavy booster back at the
Speaker 4: launch tower. Another one who is a SpaceX guy who
Speaker 4: was actually at the launch site said, are you kidding me?
Speaker 4: Even in this day and age, what we just saw
Speaker 4: that looked like magic Because this super heavy rocket, the
Speaker 4: booster catch was not the only goal for this flight five.
Speaker 4: And again this is the big version. This is not
Speaker 4: the Falcon rockets that go off for the Falcon capsules.
Speaker 4: SpaceX is aimed to send starships upper stage known as
Speaker 4: star Ship, to space and then bring it back to
Speaker 4: Earth with the splashdown in the Indian Ocean, and that
Speaker 4: occurred about an hour after lift off. The ship fired
Speaker 4: three of its six engines to hover over the ocean
Speaker 4: before it tipped over and exploded. They knew that that
Speaker 4: was going to happen, and that was the better that
Speaker 4: was the better plan. But that this starship had four
Speaker 4: previous flights April and November of last year, and then
Speaker 4: March and June of this year. And the thing about
Speaker 4: this is it keeps getting better each time. The debut
Speaker 4: mission lasted just four minutes. SpaceX ordered a detonation high
Speaker 4: in Texas after the two stages failed to separate. But
Speaker 4: flight four back in June was a complete success. It
Speaker 4: reached orbital velocity and both the shape the ship and
Speaker 4: the super heavy rocket survived the return to Earth, landing
Speaker 4: in their designated splash down zones. And then that starship
Speaker 4: took another leap today yesterday when it landed back when
Speaker 4: the heavy rocket landed back in the tower, and again
Speaker 4: the fact that it's able to maneuver. We've seen SpaceX
Speaker 4: land their rockets back on platforms before, but this one landed,
Speaker 4: was caught, I guess before it even lands because the
Speaker 4: two arms, the chopsticks, as Mike Debusky pointed out, came
Speaker 4: together and caught this thing before it actually hit the ground.
Speaker 3: If it were up.
Speaker 1: It was like an Elijah Moulden interception with chopsticks, wasn't it.
Speaker 1: Simi fehoku that grab along the sideline Flight five?
Speaker 3: How would they catch it? I don't know. I don't know,
Speaker 3: I don't know. Do you know that the.
Speaker 1: Next five opponents are all teams with losing records.
Speaker 3: I got a real chance to go on a run here.
Speaker 3: That seems the dangerous though.
Speaker 1: Arizona, New Orleans, Cleveland, Tennessee, and Cincinnati.
Speaker 3: I'd give you Tennessee. I might even give you Arizona.
Speaker 1: Do you think anyone's gonna you think the Saints are
Speaker 1: gonna beat anyone?
Speaker 3: You see? You know I saw Cleveland. Think Cleveland's gonna
Speaker 3: beat anyone?
Speaker 4: Saw a documentary one time called on any given Sunday,
Speaker 4: And you know what that means?
Speaker 3: So that was a movie. I was a feature of film.
Speaker 3: This is a document and it was a documentary. So
Speaker 3: you're saying that you like their chances.
Speaker 1: I just this defense is something I've never seen before
Speaker 1: with the Chargers. It's like they have never had an
Speaker 1: elite offense and an elite defense together in one season.
Speaker 3: Did you talk to after the game yesterday.
Speaker 1: Denzel Perimo? But Khalil Mack, he posted a grade of
Speaker 1: ninety point five. That's his best mark of the season
Speaker 1: so far. His run defense, which is really the standout.
Speaker 1: The run defense going into this one, was ranked fourth
Speaker 1: in the league.
Speaker 3: A year ago.
Speaker 1: It was twenty fifth two seasons before thirty second.
Speaker 3: So it's been like thirty second out of thirty Two's
Speaker 3: been leaps and bounds. To watch this run defense and
Speaker 3: the way it's been put together. My goodness.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I just you were talking about space things
Speaker 1: and then my mind hurts, so I had to go
Speaker 1: back to football things.
Speaker 3: Make more babies, talk about that or not when we
Speaker 3: come back.
Speaker 9: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 9: AM six forty.
Speaker 4: I didn't play this during swamp watch. We got sidetracked
Speaker 4: to doing other stuff. But Scott Jennings is one of
Speaker 4: those political commentators on CNN more conservative. He and David
Speaker 4: Urban are probably the two conservative more conservative voices that
Speaker 4: you hear there. And he was talking about why Kamala Harris,
Speaker 4: the Harris Walls ticket generally is pulling poorer or poor lee,
Speaker 4: I should say, with men, and why there has been
Speaker 4: such a gender gap when it comes to political discussions lately.
Speaker 4: This was Scott Jennings yesterday on CNN.
Speaker 13: They're struggling with I mean the front page of the
Speaker 13: New York Times this morning, Democrats struggling with African American voters,
Speaker 13: particularly African American man. This gender gap issue is real.
Speaker 13: It's a real problem, and you see the Democrats reacting
Speaker 13: to it, and I think what they are now finally
Speaker 13: in October the election coming to realize is that a
Speaker 13: lot of men think Democrats care more about dudes who
Speaker 13: want to become women and dudes who just want to
Speaker 13: be well. No, and no hunting costplay or cringey videos
Speaker 13: is going to change if the bed.
Speaker 4: Is made referring the hunting cosplays referring to Tim Walls
Speaker 4: in the pheasant hunting video.
Speaker 3: That came out this weekend from the campaign.
Speaker 1: Well, Europe, they say, is at the forefront of the
Speaker 1: worldwide baby shortage. Europe's overall populations shrank during the pandemic
Speaker 1: is on track to contract by about forty million by
Speaker 1: twenty to fifty. They've been trying to give parents or
Speaker 1: parents that they want to become parents, benefits like cheap childcare,
Speaker 1: extra vacation, free fertility treatments. Some places are offering one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty grand and cheap loans, subsidized minivans, a
Speaker 1: lifetime exemption from income taxes just to make some babies.
Speaker 1: It's not just Europe, and it's not just US, it's
Speaker 1: also China and Russia.
Speaker 4: Now they it seems like China and Russia would prefer
Speaker 4: to have babies because they need people. They need labor,
Speaker 4: they need soldiers, they need that. I mean that they're
Speaker 4: looking at it more as a commodity than any sort
Speaker 4: of cultural expansion. Perhaps, But Europe and other demographically challenged
Speaker 4: economies in Asia, like South Korea and Singapore, they've been
Speaker 4: pushing back against the demographic tide with parental benefits. Like
Speaker 4: you said, falling fertility has persisted among nearly all age groups,
Speaker 4: all incomes, all education, levels, and those who have many
Speaker 4: children often say that they would have had them even
Speaker 4: without the benefits, but those who don't say the benefits
Speaker 4: don't make enough of a difference.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to really want to have kids.
Speaker 1: You can't hold money at the problem and say we'll
Speaker 1: pay you to do this.
Speaker 4: Well, we see that in other industrialized places where you
Speaker 4: do get a certain strumental prostitution.
Speaker 1: The way to put it here, Kamala Harrison Donald Trump
Speaker 1: both have their own plans. She wants to offer a
Speaker 1: six thousand dollars baby bonus. Trump has floated free in
Speaker 1: vitro and tax deductions for parents.
Speaker 3: The free in vitro.
Speaker 1: That's smart though, in free and vitro, because when you
Speaker 1: look at who is having babies, everyone's having them later.
Speaker 1: They're not having them at twenty two and twenty four,
Speaker 1: they're having them at thirty two, thirty four, thirty six,
Speaker 1: And that it's harder to conceive. It's harder to conceive,
Speaker 1: there's a not everybody has the money for in vitro.
Speaker 1: There's a greater likelihood of potential problems, health problems, whatever.
Speaker 1: The thing about in vitro is it's very expensive, like
Speaker 1: you're saying, and I'm curious to see what kind of
Speaker 1: a bill that.
Speaker 3: Would bring to the government. Government.
Speaker 4: Right, But you know, making a baby the old fashioned
Speaker 4: way is usually free, is it real? Well, I mean,
Speaker 4: like nothing is ever free, Gary, True, there are probably
Speaker 4: some dinners that go into that, but and got to.
Speaker 1: Take out a couple of times before you put the
Speaker 1: baby inside.
Speaker 3: Probably a couple of dinners. Dating by Shannon Hey, that was.
Speaker 1: Your dating guide, not mine. I just bottom lined it
Speaker 1: for you.
Speaker 4: Hungry is being held up as a as a model
Speaker 4: for some of this. Both Hungry and Norway spend three percent,
Speaker 4: more than three percent of their gross domestic product on
Speaker 4: their different approaches to promoting families. That's more than the
Speaker 4: amounts that they spend on their militaries.
Speaker 1: Do you know what it's called the promoting of the
Speaker 1: baby making? Uh, it's called it's called pro natalism.
Speaker 3: Oh, it's called get it on. No you know, not.
Speaker 1: All never mind, go on, No, I will not give
Speaker 1: you my ted talk not all babies. What what were
Speaker 1: you going to say, Well, it's not about sex, it's
Speaker 1: about creating a family, Gary, Is that what it is?
Speaker 1: More needs to go into it than just you want
Speaker 1: to have some booty booty.
Speaker 3: Maybe that's why that the message is not being heard.
Speaker 1: If we just minimized it to having sex booty booty
Speaker 1: body booty booty, booty booty by booty booty, booty booty.
