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. The big rally for Harrison Walls
Speaker 1: went down yesterday in Pennsylvania, and.
Speaker 2: It was a show of voter enthusiasm. Let's start swamp
Speaker 2: watch right there. Swamp is horrible, so the government doesn't work.
Speaker 3: God man make it's like a reality TV show.
Speaker 2: Cor was a bad doos always a pleasure to be
Speaker 2: anywhere from Washington, DC. Ay Joey.
Speaker 4: A town hall too, clearly built on a swamp in
Speaker 4: so many ways.
Speaker 2: Still a swamp. That's a batch of Milwaukee.
Speaker 5: Body said, drained the swamp.
Speaker 4: I said, Oh, that's so he keepsh You know the thing.
Speaker 1: Well, it's shaping up to have Tim Walls as the
Speaker 1: bulldog and Kamala Harris looking like the opposite of Hillary
Speaker 1: Clinton in twenty sixteen. She looks excited, she looks competent,
Speaker 1: she does not look angry. They've learned to let the
Speaker 1: VP really go after their opponents.
Speaker 2: Here.
Speaker 4: Jd Vance literally literally wrote the foreword for the Architect
Speaker 4: of the Project twenty twenty five agenda.
Speaker 3: Like all regular people, I grew up with in the heartland.
Speaker 4: Jd studied at Yale, Zing had his career funded by
Speaker 4: Silicon Valley billionaires Zing Zing.
Speaker 3: And then wrote a best seller trashing that community.
Speaker 1: It's kind of odd going after him going to Yale.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's an impressive thing on the resume.
Speaker 6: From the history, the history that Jade Vance had as
Speaker 6: a child, Yeah, and the family history that he had.
Speaker 6: To go to Yale is quite an accomplishment that should
Speaker 6: be celebrated.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And coming from the left, it's just odd.
Speaker 1: I mean, don't they hold up the world of academia,
Speaker 1: you know, on the mantle of what's important in this country. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just an odd thing because JD. Vance is a
Speaker 1: number of things you can put down, you know, whether
Speaker 1: it's his childless catwoman turning off a major portion of
Speaker 1: the population with that one, or what have you. You
Speaker 1: don't have to put down going to Yale.
Speaker 2: He also said that he would love to debate JD.
Speaker 4: Vance, that is, if he's willing to get off the
Speaker 4: couch and show up.
Speaker 6: And again, the level of political discord both sides, both sides,
Speaker 6: it's at ultimate low. Let's actually have discussions about policy.
Speaker 6: Let's have discussions about what we the United States are
Speaker 6: going to do when World War three breaks out, because
Speaker 6: we've seen him closer than ever before. But he also
Speaker 6: used this was a term that you're gonna hear a
Speaker 6: lot coming up in these next three months.
Speaker 4: Unfortun I gotta tell you pointing out just an observation
Speaker 4: of mine that I that I made. I just have
Speaker 4: to say it. You know it, you feel it. These
Speaker 4: guys are creepy and yes, just where it is.
Speaker 3: Hell, that's what you see. That's what you see.
Speaker 6: Why the arena cheers when he comes up with a
Speaker 6: weak adjective like weird.
Speaker 2: Because that's how the ball got rolling.
Speaker 1: He was the first one to use that narrative on
Speaker 1: all the talking heads shows, and everyone took hold of
Speaker 1: the fact that Trump and Vans are weird and kind
Speaker 1: of weaponized that word. And they love it. They've owned it.
Speaker 1: You'll probably see T shirts and all the like.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but then you'll also see, like we talked about
Speaker 6: Portland and Austin, you're gonna have T shirts with people
Speaker 6: that says I'm proud to be weird.
Speaker 1: Yes, and wasn't for men to breastfeed? What was that
Speaker 1: weird thing?
Speaker 2: What? Sorry?
Speaker 1: It was about a month ago, and it was some
Speaker 1: weird ass thing that the Republicans took hold of at
Speaker 1: the Trump rallies. And I thought it was like men
Speaker 1: who breastfeed or something of that nature, and they were like,
Speaker 1: I'm a man.
Speaker 2: Who breastfeeds, and it was just ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Anyway, So now we're hearing about what happened in that
Speaker 1: VP interview between Harris and Walls. Apparently they met in
Speaker 1: the dining room of the Naval Observatory on Sunday and
Speaker 1: he told her, I'm at the end of my career.
Speaker 1: This is not about me. I want to help working
Speaker 1: families or what have you. He said, if I have
Speaker 1: to run through a brick wall, I'll have to do
Speaker 1: the hard things. I'm going to do it. I'm not
Speaker 1: angling for anything else, and that she really liked that
Speaker 1: low ego approach. Not to mention he's affable, he's from
Speaker 1: the Midwest, football coach, not Jewish, number one soldier, high
Speaker 1: school teacher, all of the things. And they said that
Speaker 1: this was somebody who didn't have any major groups gunning
Speaker 1: for him. Progressives were lashing out at Josh Shapiro for
Speaker 1: his pro Israel position, you know, Jewish and Senator Mark
Speaker 1: Kelly out of Arizona drew criticism from labor leaders. This
Speaker 1: guy is in the pocket of the teachers unions too.
Speaker 2: Oh deeply, deeply.
Speaker 6: And if you had questions about one of the things
Speaker 6: that I would have said, I had you just asked
Speaker 6: me to make a decision based on the guy's history,
Speaker 6: without knowing his politics, just his life story about having
Speaker 6: grown up on a farm in Nebraska, living in Minnesota,
Speaker 6: I would have said he was one of those guys
Speaker 6: that was kind of a rub some dirt on it,
Speaker 6: get back in the game kind of guy. But when
Speaker 6: you look at the policies that he put in place,
Speaker 6: specifically around COVID, and again not to relitigate that whole thing,
Speaker 6: but it was not rub dirt on it, get back
Speaker 6: in the game. It was mandating vaccines for state workers.
Speaker 6: It was setting up literal hotlines for people to call
Speaker 6: and snitch on their neighbors who weren't following the procedures.
Speaker 6: I mean, this was not a guy that, like you've said,
Speaker 6: We've said a couple of times now, the book cover
Speaker 6: does not match the actual contents of the book.
Speaker 1: No, he's waving the red, white, and blue. But at
Speaker 1: the same time trying to wrestle away your liberty. And
Speaker 1: he is a big fan of socialism. You just have
Speaker 1: to go through his quotes. He is more left maybe
Speaker 1: than even Kamala.
Speaker 6: Harris, which is a crazy thing because she the decisions
Speaker 6: that you would think go into the traditional vice presidential
Speaker 6: running mate is to cover a base that she doesn't have,
Speaker 6: to attract a voter that she wouldn't otherwise attract.
Speaker 2: The moderates, and that's not who this is. Still looks moderate,
Speaker 2: But do your research. If you love him, you love him.
Speaker 2: That's great.
Speaker 6: Jade Vance is already clapped back at the things that
Speaker 6: Tim Walls has said. He gave an actual news conference
Speaker 6: this morning before one of his rallies, and we'll hear
Speaker 6: from him. Military run hearings for mastermind of the September
Speaker 6: eleventh attacks, Khalid Sheik Muhammad and his two code defendants
Speaker 6: at Guantanamo Bay are in upheaval. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin,
Speaker 6: of course, decided to throw out the plea agreement. Defense
Speaker 6: attorneys contend that the plea deal still stands. They have
Speaker 6: suspended the participation at any pre trial hearings, while the
Speaker 6: legal challenges to what the Defense secretary did play out.
Speaker 6: The judge that's overseeing the case acknowledged some concerns about
Speaker 6: outside pressure. Of course, all of this the latest significant
Speaker 6: disruption of the military prosecution of defendants that were accused
Speaker 6: in the two thousand and one killings of almost three
Speaker 6: thousand people.
Speaker 1: Family of a French explorer who died in that submersible
Speaker 1: implosion has filed a more than fifty million dollar lawsuits
Speaker 1: saying the crew experienced terror and mental anguish before the disaster,
Speaker 1: accusing the subs operator of gross negligence.
Speaker 6: Multiple triathletes have been hospitalized, why because they swam.
Speaker 2: Really to the point of hospitalization.
Speaker 6: At least two and maybe more have been hospitalized after
Speaker 6: swimming in the river. There was supposed to be a
Speaker 6: two hour training session that was held today. It could
Speaker 6: be the only chance for swimmers to familiarize themselves with
Speaker 6: the course on the Sane River through the middle of
Speaker 6: Paris ahead of an event tomorrow and Friday.
Speaker 1: Because I know you follow BTS. Have you heard what
Speaker 1: happened with Sugar?
Speaker 2: I'd only heard parts of what you just said.
Speaker 1: What Sugar has apologized for driving an electric vehicle while intoxicated.
Speaker 1: It has nothing to do with it, completely irrelevant, min
Speaker 1: un G. Of course you knew that famous famously known
Speaker 1: as Sugar was driving an electric kickboard when he fell
Speaker 1: while parking it. Police officer spotted him failed the breathalyzer.
Speaker 1: He has his license revoked in a fine. An electric kickboard,
Speaker 1: because I know you're wondering what that is, refers to
Speaker 1: a type of vehicle without a seat, like a scooter. However,
Speaker 1: the police told local media that Sugar's vehicle did have
Speaker 1: a seat and resembled an electric scooter under traffic law.
Speaker 2: So he's going to get off on a technicality menu
Speaker 2: and g is going to find a loophole. Thank goodness.
Speaker 2: I hope it doesn't affect their tour.
Speaker 6: The White Sox did not lose last night. The White
Speaker 6: Sox ended their twenty one game losing streak thanks to
Speaker 6: the Oakland A's who willingly laid down. That's what they
Speaker 6: lay down for everybody. They're still on tractice at the
Speaker 6: record for losses in a season. The nineteen sixty two
Speaker 6: Mets lost one hundred and twenty games.
Speaker 2: It's a dark time.
Speaker 6: The White Sox are on track to lose one hundred
Speaker 6: and twenty three. What's the problem there, there's the Chicago
Speaker 6: white sox. I mean, I don't know how to get
Speaker 6: more specific than that. We're talking about the campaign and
Speaker 6: that kind of weird zinger that Tim Walls leveled at
Speaker 6: jd Vance that I don't have any friends in my
Speaker 6: town that went to Yale at his.
Speaker 3: Career funded by some Now this one right here, like
Speaker 3: all regular people I grew up with in the heartland,
Speaker 3: jd studied at Yale.
Speaker 2: Gotta laugh, actually from the crowd in Philly.
Speaker 1: Last, you're also suggesting that people from the heartland can't
Speaker 1: get into Yale or wouldn't want to. Again, I'm very
Speaker 1: confused by the messaging for higher education coming from the left.
Speaker 2: Good point. Jd Vance responded to that today.
Speaker 7: I came from a family where nobody in my family
Speaker 7: had ever gone to law school.
Speaker 8: I was.
Speaker 2: I grew up in a poor family.
Speaker 7: The fact that Tim Waltz wants to turn it into
Speaker 7: a bad thing that I actually worked myself through college,
Speaker 7: through law school and made something myself. To me, that's
Speaker 7: the American dream, And if Tim Waltz wants to insult it,
Speaker 7: I think that's frankly pretty bizarre.
Speaker 2: Excellent point. Now, I don't like the bizarre at the
Speaker 2: end of it, because now we're weird. It's not weird,
Speaker 2: it's bizarre.
Speaker 1: Up the ante here, Trump says it's important for the
Speaker 1: country that he and Harris face off, even though he
Speaker 1: dropped out of the schedule Old One for next month.
Speaker 2: He was on Fox this morning.
Speaker 7: Here.
Speaker 5: She's sort of a nasty person, but not a good
Speaker 5: good debater. But we'll see because we'll be debating her.
Speaker 5: I guess in the pretty dear future. It's going to
Speaker 5: be announced fairly soon, but we'll be debating her. I'd
Speaker 5: like to see it on Fox, by the way, I
Speaker 5: would like to see it. My preference would be Fox.
Speaker 8: But we have to debate.
Speaker 2: You have an announced minister. Are you working stuff out
Speaker 2: behind the scenes because we haven't heard about it yet. No.
Speaker 5: But I can tell you every network loves me very
Speaker 5: much right now. They love me very much. I've never
Speaker 5: been so loved by CBS and by ABC fake News
Speaker 5: so and by NBC and by NBC. No, they're all
Speaker 5: in love with me now. So that you know, I
Speaker 5: say yes because it's up to me obviously. Also, the
Speaker 5: most important thing is we get debate. I think debates
Speaker 5: are very important, and I think she'll be exposed, just
Speaker 5: like Biden was exposed. Nobody knew Biden was that bad,
Speaker 5: and then he was exposed during the debate, and they
Speaker 5: tried to have a series of comebacks after that, and
Speaker 5: they didn't work out too well, and they viciously overthrew him.
Speaker 5: He was overthrown at using every trick in the books.
Speaker 5: They overthrew him.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you had Nancy Pelosi working behind the
Speaker 2: scenes pulling the strings on that one.
Speaker 1: That was a quick dethrowning, wasn't it. He's got to
Speaker 1: get away from saying nasty. Probably that's going to turn
Speaker 1: off the swing voters. That's a Hillary Clinton callback.
Speaker 8: Oh.
Speaker 1: The nineteen sixty two New York Mets season was the
Speaker 1: first regular season for the Mets as the NL returned
Speaker 1: to New York. Yeah, they finished last in the NL,
Speaker 1: sixty and a half games behind the Giants, of course,
Speaker 1: formerly from New York. Right, sixty and a half games
Speaker 1: behind them.
Speaker 2: That's a half a season. I mean, you might as well.
Speaker 2: I don't know how you play on a team like that.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. It's just traveling and knowing you have
Speaker 2: no shot at a game is a really hard.
Speaker 6: Spot to be in they knew at the end of
Speaker 6: April they didn't have a shot. Now, granted, like you said,
Speaker 6: it was an expansion team.
Speaker 1: When you're hobbling through the end of the season with
Speaker 1: Easton Stick, it is a rough go.
Speaker 2: Nothing against him. He's a lovely human. Different sport, different sport.
Speaker 2: Do you have a Jeopardy question?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I get togethers for one thousand dollars. Get together.
Speaker 1: At this Latin American celebration, the fifteen year old honoree
Speaker 1: gets her last doll. A symbol of the transition to
Speaker 1: adulthood would be estabien.
Speaker 2: Uh fereness col sabe. We're doing days of the week
Speaker 2: now Friday and the body knows it. There's a shout
Speaker 2: out for Richie. I don't remember how to say it exactly.
Speaker 2: How do we say it's Friday and the body knows it?

Speaker 6: Tropical Storm Debbie pushed bad weather up through the East Coast.
Speaker 6: Heavy rain, flooded highways, street stranded motorists from Georgia all
Speaker 6: the way up through New Jersey. In some places, officials
Speaker 6: in New York told people in basement apartments to be
Speaker 6: ready to get out. The center of Debbie right now
Speaker 6: is out over the Atlantic southeast of Charleston, but the
Speaker 6: storm has brought heavy rain from Florida, Georgia, North South
Speaker 6: Carolina all the way through into the Jersey in the
Speaker 6: New York area as well.
Speaker 1: Did you see the speed climbing the sport climbing event, Yeah,
Speaker 1: looks pretty brutal. They talk about the massive and strange
Speaker 1: injuries that occur on that sport. A lot of blood,
Speaker 1: people ripping their fingernails out and stuff.
Speaker 2: No thank you, no thank you?
Speaker 6: I mean, and how is that relatable to I mean,
Speaker 6: it's one thing I can understand. A marathon right, twenty
Speaker 6: six point two people had one of the originals. People
Speaker 6: had to do that right, and the hundred meters sprint.
Speaker 2: That makes sense.
Speaker 6: You know, there's there's some aspect of but maybe necessity
Speaker 6: in our in our anthropological past.
Speaker 2: Well, climbing could have been a necessity. It's not. It
Speaker 2: wasn't always just a fun and I guess a fun
Speaker 2: event on a cruise ship. I'm trying to get something out,
Speaker 2: get out of the way of something to share.
Speaker 1: There's a big animal and it's racing you, and you've
Speaker 1: got to climb up that wall because I need to
Speaker 1: speed climb. Dodgers taking on the Phillies Night in LA

Speaker 2: You see that Billy Bean died? I did, and I
Speaker 2: got confused.
Speaker 6: There there's two Billy Beans. There are one of them
Speaker 6: works so were worked for the Oakland A's and played
Speaker 6: for the A's. Actually Moneyball Bean with an e yes
Speaker 6: two weeks I should say, Billy Bean, that's that Billy
Speaker 6: be This Billy Bean a former Dodger, former Padre former
Speaker 6: Tiger was the second formerly Major League baseball player to
Speaker 6: come out as gay.
Speaker 2: You know the first, no, Glenn Burke. Was that a
Speaker 2: guy from the sixty two Mets. No, okay, I played
Speaker 2: later than I want to say, late seventies.
Speaker 6: He came out to his team some of his teammates,
Speaker 6: I guess, but didn't come out publicly until much later.
Speaker 6: But that Billy Bean story was it's a sad the
Speaker 6: story about he ended up. He was married for a
Speaker 6: short time too, I think his college sweetheart, but only
Speaker 6: for a few years, and.
Speaker 2: Then randomly met a guy.
Speaker 6: They fell in love and they lived together for a
Speaker 6: long time, and then that guy died from AIDS cardiac arrest,
Speaker 6: this complication from AIDS, and it was a Billy Bean
Speaker 6: didn't go to his funeral because he was afraid to
Speaker 6: come out.
Speaker 2: Oh that's terrifying.
Speaker 6: In fact, the description of what happened, it was here
Speaker 6: in southern California when he died, where Billy Bean didn't
Speaker 6: want to take him to the closest hospital after he
Speaker 6: found him. He had collapsed because he had just made
Speaker 6: an appearance with the San Diego Padres in an exhibition
Speaker 6: game against I think it was the Angels. So he
Speaker 6: drove to a farther away hospital and the guy died. Well,
Speaker 6: he didn't die then, I mean he died the next day.
Speaker 6: But still the question of whether or not that complicated
Speaker 6: the problem. I mean, that's awful, it's awful story.
Speaker 1: Well, Jacob, since you are such a fan of female
Speaker 1: olymp sports, do you have a recap of anything that's
Speaker 1: struck your fancy?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 2: No, what about the pregnant olympian? Have you heard about her?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: I haven't. Here's her quote.
Speaker 1: I felt my baby kick me before I shot this
Speaker 1: last arrow, and then I shot a ten. Her name
Speaker 1: is ya La gul Aramaza Nova and she is from
Speaker 1: Azerbaijan and all that.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to learn from you. She's visibly pregnant. I
Speaker 1: mean she's got oh not one of those. She's six
Speaker 1: and a half months pregnant.
Speaker 2: Did she wear shoes while she was doing this?
Speaker 1: She's a first time olympian, she's thirty four, and she
Speaker 1: shared that while training for the Summer Games, she saw
Speaker 1: her unborn child as an extension of herself.
Speaker 2: I could see that. Well it is, she said.
Speaker 6: Technically, she said, I felt that I was not fighting
Speaker 6: alone but fighting together.
Speaker 2: The best part is her and her baby together beat China.
Speaker 6: Yes, they were eliminated in the next round, but still
Speaker 6: she made a bunch of fans out of her.
Speaker 1: I was listening to the Woody Show This Morning go
Speaker 1: On and they kept referring to China as stupid China
Speaker 1: and garbage China.
Speaker 2: It's great. Nothing brings us together America like our hatred
Speaker 2: of China. Did you see the fifteen hundred meter final
Speaker 2: last night? American Cole Hawker won.
Speaker 6: It was actually run while we were doing the show,
Speaker 6: but they did a great job last night of putting
Speaker 6: it back on primetime on NBC. There was a British
Speaker 6: guy named Josh Kerr clearly the favorite in this fifteen
Speaker 6: hundred meter race, which is four laps around the track.
Speaker 6: The big rival in the race was a guy from
Speaker 6: Norway named Jacob Ingebritsen, and they did a full video
Speaker 6: of the rivalry between these two guys and how one
Speaker 6: guy thinks the other guy's an idiot and the other
Speaker 6: guy calls the other guy an a hole and they
Speaker 6: go to social media to go after each other. Granted,
Speaker 6: it's European track and field, which gets much more publicity
Speaker 6: there than it ever would here. But these guys are
Speaker 6: going back and forth with each other and they can't
Speaker 6: stand each other. And the race starts and these two
Speaker 6: guys are in the lead, and there's a couple of
Speaker 6: there's like a Kenyan guy and an Ethiopian guy also,
Speaker 6: So these four sort of at the beginning the front
Speaker 6: of the pack, and you could tell they're jostling and
Speaker 6: they're kind of rubbing elbows and Rubbin's racing right well.
Speaker 6: All of a sudden, Cole Hawker comes out of nowhere
Speaker 6: on the inside of this The Norwegian guy almost runs
Speaker 6: him off the track because he's in the inside lane
Speaker 6: and Cole's trying to kind of squeeze by him on
Speaker 6: the inside, and they get a little tangled and Cole
Speaker 6: has to actually put his hand out and put touches
Speaker 6: the guy on the hip. And eventually these two, the
Speaker 6: British guy and the Norwegian guy, they're gonna race. They
Speaker 6: think they're the ones who are going to be the race.
Speaker 6: You know, this is going to be the finale, finale,
Speaker 6: the finale, as they say in from So they kind
Speaker 6: of move over to lane's two and three and they're
Speaker 6: gonna sprint it out right, Cole Hawker comes out of
Speaker 6: nowhere takes first place.
Speaker 5: Wow.
Speaker 6: The other American comes in third, and the British guy
Speaker 6: came in second with a with a silver.
Speaker 2: But it was just great.
Speaker 6: These guys nobody was expected. They were, you know, all
Speaker 6: caught up in their stupid little rivalry. All of a sudden,
Speaker 6: this American comes by and just wins the gold, totally unexpected.
Speaker 1: So there's a lesson in there for you kids. Don't
Speaker 1: focus on the negative. Focus on doing your best, not
Speaker 1: on beating somebody down. A great lesson that beautiful. The
Speaker 1: more you know, the more you know. Well, some years
Speaker 1: ago we talked about the plight of a single lobster
Speaker 1: on the East Coast and a woman by the name
Speaker 1: of Christine Lofgren I believe is her name, and her quest.
Speaker 2: Lave it.
Speaker 1: Okay, Sorry, Christine, it's been a long time since we've spoken.
Speaker 1: If you could just retell the story of how you
Speaker 1: rescued a single lobster from a market there on the
Speaker 1: East Coast some five six years ago.
Speaker 8: Are you asking me to reat out because you have
Speaker 8: forgotten arguably one of the most important stories in to
Speaker 8: come out of North America in the last save twenty years.
Speaker 1: No, I just I remember the story about Lobby Joe
Speaker 1: and your dramatic rescue of Lobby Joe, because if you
Speaker 1: can just save one lobster, that's sometimes enough.
Speaker 2: I just don't tell it with the passion that you
Speaker 2: tell it.
Speaker 8: Well clearly, because you don't have a heart. And my boyfriend,
Speaker 8: partner life lover was with me. We saw a lobster
Speaker 8: in the grocery and decided that we wanted to save
Speaker 8: him and take him back to his place of birth.
Speaker 8: So we put him into a styroful cooler, drove him
Speaker 8: out to the east coast of Canada and put him
Speaker 8: back in the ocean, like anybody with a heart would
Speaker 8: have done. And we called him lobby Joe. That's the
Speaker 8: name we gave our lobster.
Speaker 2: So have you said, now, well, we don't know that.
Speaker 8: Well I know lobsters. He's pretty much dead now.
Speaker 1: So have you heard about this one in a million
Speaker 1: lobster that's been found off the New England coast. It's
Speaker 1: called a cotton candy lobster?
Speaker 8: Not only have I heard about it. You can't break
Speaker 8: news with Christine Loughhead, not these days. I was contacted
Speaker 8: by the people who found this cotton candy lobster, and
Speaker 8: they were asking me for suggestions about what to do
Speaker 8: with such a special creature.
Speaker 1: Can you describe why it's special, this particular lobster? And
Speaker 1: you know what, just to show that, to show you
Speaker 1: that I do have a heart. Why is one lobster
Speaker 1: more special than another lobster? Aren't all lobsters made equal?
Speaker 1: And aren't they equal in God's eyes?
Speaker 8: I think what you're doing is confusing the Old Testament
Speaker 8: for the New Testament. I would say that the Old
Speaker 8: Testament suggests that lobsters might be a dirty creature, dirty animal.
Speaker 8: I mean, they do feed on the detritus at the
Speaker 8: bottom of the ocean. But I do believe that the
Speaker 8: cotton candy lobster is different because it's blue. It's blue,
Speaker 8: and when in Canada we see blue lobsters, we know
Speaker 8: that they are very important. Yes, most lobsters are made
Speaker 8: in the image of our creator, I think, but not
Speaker 8: all lobsters deserve to be freed back into the ocean
Speaker 8: or to be taken care of like this cotton candy
Speaker 8: lobster will be.
Speaker 1: You know you picked the fight with the wrong girl, Christine,
Speaker 1: because I happen to know the Bible very well, and
Speaker 1: it's actually on your side of this argument. It's Leviticus
Speaker 1: of eleven, verses nine through twelve, where the Bible states
Speaker 1: that lobsters should not be eaten because they are water
Speaker 1: creatures that do not have fins or scales.
Speaker 8: Well, hold your horses, cocaine and chardonnay breath, because then
Speaker 8: the second chapter, if you want to call it, that,
Speaker 8: the second half of the book the other Guy. Do
Speaker 8: you remember the other guy who came to fulfill, to
Speaker 8: fulfill everything?
Speaker 2: Jesus, Yes, there you go.
