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: A bunch of stories that are going on.
Speaker 3: Obviously, the man suspected of killing a Minnesota lawmaker and
Speaker 3: wounding another did surrender to officers last night. They found
Speaker 3: him in some woods near his home. He was arrested
Speaker 3: in charge with two counts of murder two counts of
Speaker 3: attempted murder. He apparently posed as a police officer when
Speaker 3: he shot a Democratic House Speaker Melissa Hortman. Former House
Speaker 3: Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. He also shot
Speaker 3: a senator, State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette.
Speaker 3: They suffered multiple gunshot wounds each. John Hoffman was shot
Speaker 3: nine times, his wife Yvette was shot eight times. They
Speaker 3: both went through surgery and are expected to survive if
Speaker 3: Vett apparently shielded their daughter from the gunshots. Wow an
Speaker 3: adult daughter, but she was not injured in the attack
Speaker 3: and was able to work the.
Speaker 1: One who called nine to one one. Wow.
Speaker 3: Wall Street Journal reports that Iran has been urgently signaling
Speaker 3: that it wants an end to hostilities and resumption of
Speaker 3: talks over its nuclear program, although they don't do that publicly,
Speaker 3: Tehran has apparently told other Arab state officials that they
Speaker 3: would be open to returning to the negotiating table as
Speaker 3: long as the United States does not join in the
Speaker 3: current series of attacks that Israel has leveled against that country.
Speaker 1: Well, I mentioned I saw some No King's protests down
Speaker 1: in Huntington Beach, saw some pro Trump action there as well.
Speaker 1: Listened to Michael Monk's reports yesterday, caught that from two
Speaker 1: to four where he was fielding calls from people who
Speaker 1: saw what they saw over the weekend, and Michael Monks
Speaker 1: adjoins US now. And I didn't spend much time on
Speaker 1: Twitter or social media or the internet really this weekend, Michael,
Speaker 1: But I did hear one of your talk back callers
Speaker 1: say that there were fake numbers of protesters, which I
Speaker 1: found to be interesting because I don't know how you
Speaker 1: fake the overhead shots.
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you were on Twitter and or X as
Speaker 4: we call it now. Unfortunately, it's hard to adjust to
Speaker 4: that abrupt change for something that's been so important to
Speaker 4: journalists for so long. But it is X and I'm
Speaker 4: on there all the time, scrolling and falling deeper into depression.
Speaker 4: But I can tell you that over the weekend, it
Speaker 4: depends on who you voted for, on how you saw
Speaker 4: what was playing out. And that's pretty much the case
Speaker 4: for everything. Even this Minnesota there were good numbers.
Speaker 1: And numbers in LA she would expect. But I just
Speaker 1: is it because people were saying that the pictures that
Speaker 1: they saw were the scope of them was not fully telling. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's from that angle, it looks like a lot of people,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't really that is that what it is?
Speaker 4: Yeah, because at the same time you had the military
Speaker 4: parade going on in Washington, d C. And so folks
Speaker 4: who are maybe on the Democratic side or farther looking
Speaker 4: at this and saying, look that, turnout.
Speaker 2: There's nobody there. Exactly.
Speaker 4: It's completely competition all day, every day on stuff that
Speaker 4: really doesn't matter, rather than getting into the grit of
Speaker 4: the policy. So it's who's got more friends. I've got
Speaker 4: more friends than this guy has, and you know anytime
Speaker 4: that you can use. Of course, the president himself is
Speaker 4: notorious for this, ratings, crowd sizes, hand size. You know,
Speaker 4: this is something that's very important to him and is
Speaker 4: now filtered out into broader American society, and this is
Speaker 4: definitely what people were complaining about all weekend. Nobody was
Speaker 4: at the military parade. Nobody was at the No Kings
Speaker 4: or if you just acknowledge the military parade, what a
Speaker 4: dud this was.
Speaker 2: You know, nobody had a good time there. This looks
Speaker 2: so poorly orchestrated.
Speaker 4: The soldiers weren't marching correctly, or the No Kings saying,
Speaker 4: oh yeah, big deal. We woke up this morning. We
Speaker 4: still don't have a king. Great job, No Kings people,
Speaker 4: you know we didn't have one to begin with.
Speaker 3: Post he said, you guys have done a great job.
Speaker 3: We still don't have a king. Thanks for all your
Speaker 3: hard work.
Speaker 4: He may have plagiarized that. I did see that. I
Speaker 4: had seen it earlier from others. I mean, that was
Speaker 4: the kind of messaging that was going on. What I
Speaker 4: think I observed in downtown Los Angeles where I covered
Speaker 4: it for is on Saturday afternoon, was the crowd was
Speaker 4: an immense, but it wasn't intense the way that some
Speaker 4: of the in your face kind of protest outside the
Speaker 4: Federal building and when the National Guard and the Marines
Speaker 4: might be involved, because this isn't that crew.
Speaker 2: This is.
Speaker 4: I don't want to use this as a pejorative, of course,
Speaker 4: but you might hear the phrase latte liberal. I mean
Speaker 4: this was people who voted for Hillary Clinton, people who
Speaker 4: voted for Kama Harris, very enthusiastic.
Speaker 1: That was the vibe that I got when I saw
Speaker 1: the protests as well.
Speaker 4: These are people who have bad feelings about the current administration.
Speaker 4: This was scheduled before these immigration enforcement efforts really ramped up,
Speaker 4: so it was more broadly focused against the Trump administration
Speaker 4: and their various policies. And it brought a lot of
Speaker 4: people downtown, which was kind of needed because of the
Speaker 4: curfew that's going on. It was in the late afternoon,
Speaker 4: early evening hours that the vibes shifted again because the
Speaker 4: geography of the event shifted. Was back outside that Federal
Speaker 4: building and a lot of those usual characters showed up.
Speaker 4: It was also interesting to note, if I may quickly,
Speaker 4: it's not just Republicans or conservatives that dislike the No Kings.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you who really.
Speaker 4: Hates the No Kings protest, the leftist, the folks in
Speaker 4: LA that love to antagonize the police, the military. You
Speaker 4: saw a lot of criticism from online LA the people
Speaker 4: who are just inferior. Oh, you know, this is not
Speaker 4: how you protest. In essence, this isn't how you protest.
Speaker 4: If you have a list of things you shouldn't be
Speaker 4: doing at the protest, this isn't a protest, you know,
Speaker 4: and very explicitly said, these are people Democrats who were
Speaker 4: trying to hijack our momentum, our movement. Don't let them
Speaker 4: do that.
Speaker 5: And that's what that's the problem with the Democrats. They
Speaker 5: eat each other. Well, these folks aren't Democrats. I mean
Speaker 5: the ones who were downtown are And so I've continually
Speaker 5: tried to make the distinction here because I think it's
Speaker 5: just political interesting.
Speaker 1: But it's a people that go after the late liberals
Speaker 1: that get the headlines and get called democrats and then
Speaker 1: everyone thinks that everyone's that crazy.
Speaker 4: You nailed it, because if you see a leftist, if
Speaker 4: you will again, I'm not using that as a majority
Speaker 4: of they would proudly wear that a leftist set away
Speaker 4: moo on fire. That person probably did not enthusiastically vote
Speaker 4: for Kamala Harris. If you voted for Kamala Harris at all,
Speaker 4: but you can bet that he will be in a
Speaker 4: campaign ad against a run of the mill, mainstream democratic.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So it is often those leftist positions that get attached
Speaker 4: to more mainstream or moderate whose policies you may still
Speaker 4: disagree with, but it's not a true reflection of their politics.
Speaker 1: Just like the guy who shot and killed the lawmakers
Speaker 1: in Minnesota, he'll be used in the campaign ads.
Speaker 2: For the left.
Speaker 1: Look at what Trump supporters do. I mean, it's an
Speaker 1: awful place we are with the rhetoric, it really is.
Speaker 4: I mean, in the immediate aftermath of that shooting, that's
Speaker 4: where a lot of the terminally online folks, including unfortunately
Speaker 4: some members of Congress, go is, how do we find
Speaker 4: out who this guy voted for so that we can
Speaker 4: pendant on him rather than coming to terms with what
Speaker 4: was clearly a tragedy. Yeah, let's get some facts before
Speaker 4: we ascribe the politics of this man so that we
Speaker 4: can somehow gain from it politically.
Speaker 3: And there's got to be a certain amount of self
Speaker 3: reflection no matter who you are, what political side you're on.
Speaker 3: I mean, Governor Tim Walls comes out and says, we
Speaker 3: can't have this divided political environment like this. This is
Speaker 3: never This is never okay. Political violence is never okay. Okay,
Speaker 3: that's fine to say, you're the governor of the state.
Speaker 3: Now lock yourself in a room and go through all
Speaker 3: the times in your own head where you've said things
Speaker 3: that were over the line. Yeah, for both sides, not
Speaker 3: just because he was running for vice president. I mean
Speaker 3: there are you reach a certain level of politics in
Speaker 3: this country. There's a great chance that you've had to
Speaker 3: step on people to get where you are. So let's
Speaker 3: maybe do a little bit of reflection and think to yourself. Okay,
Speaker 3: maybe I am also of even part of this completely
Speaker 3: polarized political discoord.
Speaker 4: But Gary, you're asking for introspection and self reflection, and
Speaker 4: I just don't think folks are.
Speaker 2: Willing to do that.
Speaker 1: I am asking you to stay for another segment.
Speaker 2: I'd happily do that.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 6: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 6: AM six forty.
Speaker 1: Dodgers pitching debut tonight, Redundant as La hosts The Padres,
Speaker 1: the first time oh Tani has pitched in the Major
Speaker 1: League since undergoing that right elbow surgery back in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty five or twenty twenty three. Excuse me, we thought
Speaker 1: that he wasn't going to make an appearance on the
Speaker 1: mound till after the All Star break.
Speaker 3: But here he is, yeah, on Blake Snell Bobblehead night
Speaker 3: at Dodger Stadium. The judge overseeing Sean Comb's federal trial
Speaker 3: dismissed one of the jurors. Today, lawyers have acknowledged that
Speaker 3: the jury is diverse, but they did not want to
Speaker 3: see this guy kicked off. They said that the guy
Speaker 3: the juror who was dismissed, is black. The alternate juror
Speaker 3: who will replace him is white. Prosecutors raised the issue
Speaker 3: last week after this juror, in casual conversation with one
Speaker 3: of the members of the court staff, said that he
Speaker 3: just moved in with his girlfriend in New Jersey, but
Speaker 3: during jury selection he said that he lived in the
Speaker 3: Bronx with his fiancee. So the judge said, sounds like
Speaker 3: you're just trying to make some money off of this
Speaker 3: book deal.
Speaker 2: Perhaps, so they kicked him off the jury.
Speaker 1: So a little bit of confusion. The Trump administration has
Speaker 1: directed immigration officers to pause arrests at farms, restaurants, and hotels.
Speaker 1: This after Trump expressed a bit of alarm about the
Speaker 1: impact of aggressive enforcement. Stephen Miller, the architecturally of Trump's
Speaker 1: immigration policies, said that ICE was going to target three
Speaker 1: thousand arrests a day, which Michael Monks actually heard you
Speaker 1: talking about this yesterday on your show. Seems a lot
Speaker 1: if you're just going after the worst of the worst criminals,
Speaker 1: even though this administration or the mouthpieces for the administration
Speaker 1: have said no, if you're here illegally, you should be worried, period.
Speaker 1: But three thousand arrested day, obviously is not just going
Speaker 1: after the worst of the worst. Now, the President came
Speaker 1: out and said, you know, these are good people. I
Speaker 1: don't remember exactly what his words were, to which people
Speaker 1: who advocate for people here illegally said, yeah, they are.
Speaker 1: They're all mostly very good people. So is his messaging
Speaker 1: going to change, are his orders going to change as
Speaker 1: he realizes that it's not just people in farms, restaurants
Speaker 1: and hotels that are good people? Or where are we
Speaker 1: with that? And is that message resonating on the street.
Speaker 4: Well, you know, you can listen to anything the president
Speaker 4: says and then wait a couple weeks and see if
Speaker 4: it is shifted at all. We think about the tariff
Speaker 4: policy the way that it's been the tariffs are on,
Speaker 4: the tariffs are off. It does end up having real
Speaker 4: impact on the way people feel. That's how you see
Speaker 4: it reflected an opinion pulling about it. How do you
Speaker 4: feel about the economy or how businesses prepare for the
Speaker 4: inventory that they will have available in the summer. Should
Speaker 4: I order now? Should I order later? What are the
Speaker 4: prices going to be? Should I take out a loan
Speaker 4: right now? When you waffle on your positions and you're
Speaker 4: the president, it creates a sense of anxiety. There's already
Speaker 4: anxiety for illegal immigrants here in Los Angeles, but I
Speaker 4: can tell you it is visible because the fashion district
Speaker 4: is dead. Santi Ali is dead, Downtown is mostly dead.
Speaker 4: The curfew is playing a big role in a lot
Speaker 4: of that. Tons of buildings downtown covered in wood as
Speaker 4: if there were a hurricane and the forecast, I mean
Speaker 4: plywood on the last bookstore. I mean iconic landmarks in
Speaker 4: downtown LA are covered in wood. But all of those
Speaker 4: little cheap shops that people like to frequent on the weekends,
Speaker 4: Santi Ali, Los Angeles Street, the flower district would typically
Speaker 4: be hopping on a beautiful weekend like what we just had,
Speaker 4: and it was tumbleweeds everywhere. So if people feel like
Speaker 4: certain sectors are going to be better protected than others,
Speaker 4: it's not playing out in real time because I'm hearing
Speaker 4: even from folks who work in restaurants that employees aren't
Speaker 4: coming and they're calling about what's the vibe. There was
Speaker 4: a fast food restaurant downtown that had an ice truck
Speaker 4: go through the drive through and like, I think they
Speaker 4: were just picking up lunch, and it terrorized people who
Speaker 4: work there.
Speaker 3: Speaking of curfew, what is the plan for that? We
Speaker 3: know that Karen bass Mayor had said it's going to
Speaker 3: stay in effect for now, I mean for an unforeseen
Speaker 3: amount of time from eight pm until six am. When
Speaker 3: she first imposed it, she was asked what would be
Speaker 3: the criteria to lift it, and the one of her
Speaker 3: criteria was she wanted to have a night with zero arrests.
Speaker 2: Are we in moving in that direction? We seemed to
Speaker 2: be there last night.
Speaker 4: Last night was relatively calm, I say relative compared to
Speaker 4: Saturday Friday, all of the days leading up to it,
Speaker 4: all the way back to last Sunday when it really
Speaker 4: got Harry Day night into Monday morning is when we
Speaker 4: saw all that violence. The vandalism and looting in downtown LA,
Speaker 4: and that prompted the curfew. I talked to the two
Speaker 4: founders of the Downtown LA Residents Association, and incidentally, last
Speaker 4: night they sent an email, and I'm on this list,
Speaker 4: so I got the email. Didn't participate in the survey,
Speaker 4: but I got the email and it was asking, we
Speaker 4: need urgent response from people. What do you want to
Speaker 4: do about the curfew? Three options, end it now, phase
Speaker 4: it out, or keep it going. About two hours later,
Speaker 4: they say they got about three hundred responses and a
Speaker 4: combined eighty percent we're either in this curfew now or
Speaker 4: start to phase it out immediately, with only like twelve
Speaker 4: percent saying keep the curfew going. And that's because if
Speaker 4: you're in downtown LA, you're already struggling. It's expensive, and
Speaker 4: the environment down there is not always inviting to folks
Speaker 4: to come down and spend their money. If you are
Speaker 4: a restaurant owner, if you're a bar owner, you haven't
Speaker 4: been able to do anything.
Speaker 2: I mean, the curfew. What are you going to open
Speaker 2: up for breakfast? You can't.
Speaker 4: It doesn't make any business sense. So you've been hit
Speaker 4: really hard. It's not sustainable. It's just not sustainable, and
Speaker 4: so it does have to end at some point. But
Speaker 4: the caveat is the immigration enforcement is clearly going to continue.
Speaker 4: I would expect that demonstrations against immigration enforcement will continue.
Speaker 4: How does it all end? That's what I keep asking
Speaker 4: all weekends. How does it end? And I don't have
Speaker 4: an answer for that. I don't think anybody does. But
Speaker 4: I think that if immigration enforcement's going to escalate at
Speaker 4: the directive of the President, that the demonstrations could escalate
Speaker 4: as well. And anytime that there's that sort of disorder,
Speaker 4: there are a lot of bad actors who want to
Speaker 4: take advantage of that and start breaking into the stores again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean there's an option whether it picks
Speaker 1: up steam or it fizzles out. And I just don't
Speaker 1: know because I'm not down there, so I don't know
Speaker 1: where the energy level is, but you can usually tell.
Speaker 2: Right it feels like covid era down there.
Speaker 4: And I think about Friday night, I left here, went home,
Speaker 4: and I'm just kind of hanging around, you know. Sometimes
Speaker 4: Friday night You're like, I'm just obviously we're going to
Speaker 4: stay in. There's nowhere to go because we live down there.
Speaker 4: You know, what I want McDonald's. I'm going to go
Speaker 4: find something because I'm a resident and i'm a member
Speaker 4: of the media.
Speaker 1: McDonald's we have two.
Speaker 4: There's one on the other side of skid Row on Alameda,
Speaker 4: and then there's another one on Olympic.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, we'll go to stop at the Alameda one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a good one. I mean, they're all very fast.
Speaker 4: I got two lanes, very kind kids. I get a
Speaker 4: M chicken. I love a MC chicken. I was like,
Speaker 4: I want to McChicken. It's kind of like the chick
Speaker 4: fil A. I don't think we give McDonald's mc chicken
Speaker 4: enough credit. Chick fil A is really good too, but
Speaker 4: they got the pickle on there, like the chick fil
Speaker 4: a does too much.
Speaker 1: Though the mcchicken's a perfect snack, exactly.
Speaker 2: Like I want to MC chicken. And my spouse is like,
Speaker 2: you're not supposed to go out. You're not supposed to
Speaker 2: go out, but if you do, I will like a
Speaker 2: big mac. So I go hunting for this. You're going.
Speaker 4: The one on Alimedo was closed, but on the drive
Speaker 4: down there, I mean, even in skid Row, which is
Speaker 4: often lively for all the wrong reasons. Ghost Town, I
Speaker 4: did have to find the one on Olympic Oh, you know,
Speaker 4: and they gave me a doctor pepper instead of the day.
Speaker 2: All right, it's all right. I was glad that they
Speaker 2: were open.
Speaker 4: But gas stations close, restaurants closed, and then in the
Speaker 4: afternoon you think, okay, well this isn't a few hour
Speaker 4: But then the Immigration Enforcement is hanging over the head
Speaker 4: of a lot of illegal immigrants who work down there,
Speaker 4: and it's dead.
Speaker 2: It's just completely dead. Oh that the mc chicken was good.
Speaker 1: It always is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so good. Not disappointed, No, I was really glad
Speaker 2: I did it.
Speaker 1: I haven't had one for a while.
Speaker 2: Michael Munk always a pleasure, guys.
Speaker 6: Right, you're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from
Speaker 6: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3: Big stories of course, today is the arrest and now
Speaker 3: federal charges that have been filed against the man suspected
Speaker 3: of killing a Minnesota lawmaker and wounding another. There were
Speaker 3: some issues early on yesterday. They said they were going
Speaker 3: to charge this guy with second degree murder, that it
Speaker 3: wasn't premeditated. They were able to explain that Mary Moriarity
Speaker 3: is the county attorney there in Hennepin counties are.
Speaker 7: The highest charges we can file by complaint, and it
Speaker 7: needed to be done quickly to get the warrant out.
Speaker 7: Mister Bolter was taken into state custody, and our office
Speaker 7: intends to pursue first degree murder charges against mister Bolter.
Speaker 3: There was some pushback originally, I guess there was a
Speaker 3: concern that the prosecutors in Hennepin County specifically were, as
Speaker 3: we like to say in the old in the olden
Speaker 3: days here in LA, progressive prosecutors, which were considered to
Speaker 3: be lighter on crime. But she explained the way they
Speaker 3: had to get the warrant right away was to file
Speaker 3: secondary murder charges. They can be upgraded to first degree
Speaker 3: and they're still saying that the death penalty is on
Speaker 3: the table for that guy.
Speaker 1: Progressive prosecutors are often just defense attorneys that are marauding
Speaker 1: as prosecutors, pretending I've seen rodding.
Speaker 2: That's good, though.
Speaker 1: They worked their way into the other side like a
Speaker 1: trojan horse situation. Another chilling angle to that story is
Speaker 1: that this guy stopped at two other homes. He stopped
Speaker 1: at the home of a state representative in Maple Grove
Speaker 1: and a state senator in New Hope in between those
Speaker 1: two attacks I imagine being those families as well.
Speaker 3: And why wouldn't he I mean, these were in the
Speaker 3: middle of the morning, middle of the morning and middle
Speaker 3: of the night, two in the morning, whatever it was,
Speaker 3: why wouldn't he have stopped.
Speaker 2: At those places?
Speaker 1: For whatever?
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't have gotten out?
Speaker 1: Whether it was security gates didn't like the vibe, there
Speaker 1: are people outside, people inside, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Whatever.
Speaker 1: For whatever reason, he did stop those two homes, but
Speaker 1: obviously did not enact the carnage he did it the
Speaker 1: other two. The bookended those two stops.
Speaker 3: There was a lot that was made out of this,
Speaker 3: and I'm not sure that it needed to have a
Speaker 3: lot made out of it, although it's unusual. Stu Mundell
Speaker 3: Box eleven helicopter by a longtime helicopter guy, had a
Speaker 3: live therapy session is the way described about a separation
Speaker 3: his feelings for bourbon. He was flying over downtown Culver
Speaker 3: City to get to one of the No Kings protests
Speaker 3: that was taking place, and was apparently answering questions from viewers.
Speaker 2: Basically just a live YouTube feed.
Speaker 1: I mean, when you go live, it's all on the table,
Speaker 1: right whatever you're doing, if you want to answer questions,
Speaker 1: and he was just super honest. Now I haven't taken
Speaker 1: in a lot of Stu Mandel's reporting over the years,
Speaker 1: but what I can remember, he's just a matter of
Speaker 1: fact guy. He's just like he's not missed. Look, I'm
Speaker 1: very serious. I'm a traffic reporter, and I will just
Speaker 1: give you the traffic. He seems to be just like
Speaker 1: a dude that would be your friend up in the
Speaker 1: sky reporting on the traffic. So this is kind of
Speaker 1: like in line with whatever vibe I've picked up on
Speaker 1: over the years. He's just honest with people about what's
Speaker 1: going on in his life.
Speaker 3: He didn't denigrate anybody. He was careful about the things
Speaker 3: that he said. He was honest about what he said.
Speaker 3: He was honest about his feelings. He wasn't mean to anybody.
Speaker 3: He was just processing through this conversation, just a little
Speaker 3: bit of it.
Speaker 8: I am I am married. I am I am legally married.
Speaker 8: I am legally married. That's about the only way you
Speaker 8: can really say it. I am legally married. But I
Speaker 8: am not looking at now at all. I I just
Speaker 8: had a bunch of debacles with my personal life. Yes,
Speaker 8: it's true. I know it's hard to believe somebody that
Speaker 8: doesn't even know what he's talking about in a relationship,
Speaker 8: and you know, but yeah, I got nothing right now,
Speaker 8: got nothing, got nothing, not really looking you know, I'm
Speaker 8: trying to trying to find myself and be happy. I'm
Speaker 8: being serious about them.
Speaker 2: Listen.
Speaker 1: And as somebody asked, are you married? Are you looking
Speaker 1: for love? I mean, that's one of the main questions
Speaker 1: that's going to happen if you open it up and
Speaker 1: you're you know, it's just it's just a common human question.
Speaker 1: And there were people who reacted to this as if
Speaker 1: it was a breakdown of some sort, him dropping f
Speaker 1: bombs or going after management or even worse, going after
Speaker 1: coworkers by name or something like that.
Speaker 2: And it's so far away over there there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got the link and I thought, oh no,
Speaker 1: what's this And then I'm just kind of.
Speaker 3: Like, eh, if you're somebody. One commenter wrote to Fox eleven,
Speaker 3: this is a PR disaster for me. This guy should
Speaker 3: get a raise. It's not a PR disaster. It's it's
Speaker 3: proof I'm a human. Yeah, it's proof he's a real guy.
Speaker 3: He's a real guy. He's going to be on with
Speaker 3: Conway today at four o'clock and he's going to talk
Speaker 3: about that.
Speaker 1: I love it when people on TV have moments of realness.
Speaker 1: It's why that Angelina Joe Lee movie was so good
Speaker 1: all those years ago, where she plays that reporter who
Speaker 1: gets drunk and she goes on the air and she's herself,
Speaker 1: and it's refreshing because they are these unattainable, perfect avatars.
Speaker 1: They are these perfect people who look great and sound great,
Speaker 1: and you think they've all got it so together, but
Speaker 1: they're just like everybody else. Of course they're gonna have issue.
Speaker 1: It's just refreshing when you see somebody. It's not a breakdown,
Speaker 1: it's a realization that they're people.
Speaker 3: I don't remember the name of that movie that you
Speaker 3: refer to, The Light or something like it. The TV
Speaker 3: station that she worked for was KQMO Como essentially right,
Speaker 3: But when they filmed in the TV station, all they
Speaker 3: did was take a piece of white tape on the
Speaker 3: first o and made it into a que that was like,
Speaker 3: that's all they did to change the logo for the
Speaker 3: TV station.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so goofy. All right, Sports Talk.
Speaker 1: Sports Talk, sports Stock were you sports Talk on Petros's birthday?
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't we on Petros's birthday?
Speaker 1: I don't know. They don't talk about sports, RuSHA.
Speaker 2: It's a good point. We'll pick up where they left off.
Speaker 6: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 6: AM six forty.
Speaker 3: They dismissed one juror who had apparently been bragging about
Speaker 3: not living where he.
Speaker 2: Said he lived.
Speaker 1: Was this jur number six? I do not know the
Speaker 1: number because I'm reading on TMZ and I don't know
Speaker 1: if it's the same juror. It's as Diddy's trial is
Speaker 1: on the verge of another jury shake up due to
Speaker 1: one of them getting a strange text message has left
Speaker 1: the judge with concerns that the juror is talking about
Speaker 1: the case outside of court. Sources say the juror alerted
Speaker 1: the court on Friday about the text message from a
Speaker 1: phone number he didn't recognize, asking him if he was
Speaker 1: Juror number six. The juror wanted the judge to know
Speaker 1: about the mystery texts, and indeed the judge had a
Speaker 1: lot of questions for him about the message and the
Speaker 1: phone number from which it came.
Speaker 9: Well, that's different than the one that they dismissed this morning.
Speaker 9: That the judge dismissed this morning had said he lived
Speaker 9: in the Bronx with his fiance, but then told one
Speaker 9: of the court staff that he had recently moved in
Speaker 9: with his girlfriend in New Jersey.
Speaker 2: Uh and if you don't live there, well, they don't
Speaker 2: want you on the jury.
Speaker 3: For one thing, the judge, it made the judge assume
Speaker 3: that the guy manipulated his answers so that he could
Speaker 3: be on the jury, so he could get some sort
Speaker 3: of fame.
Speaker 1: Can we please not have to relive this testimony again
Speaker 1: in another trial?
Speaker 2: Trial? And this stuff a couple things. In the world
Speaker 2: of sports.
Speaker 3: Florida Panthers look like they're on the verge of cementing
Speaker 3: yet another Stanley Cup.
Speaker 2: They won yesterday.
Speaker 3: UCLA Baseball plays against LSU in the winner's bracket tonight.
Speaker 2: JJ Spawn hit a sixty four foot putt last night
Speaker 2: ended up winning the US Open.
Speaker 3: He looked like he was going to disintegrate.
Speaker 1: It sounds like he's putting from the green from the
Speaker 1: not the green.
Speaker 2: From the rough, from the rough from the fairway.
Speaker 1: How far as I don't know, is that how.
Speaker 2: Sixty four feet is a long?
Speaker 3: Sixty four feet is from here to the bathroom probably,
Speaker 3: and the putt it was not straight at all, So
Speaker 3: it was a brilliant brilliance foll It was really cool.
Speaker 3: So he won the US Open under some bad weather.
Speaker 3: The big shake up in terms of baseball world is
Speaker 3: that the Boston Red Sox traded Rafael Devers to the
Speaker 3: San Francisco Giants yesterday.
Speaker 1: The Red Sox were like, he is not worth it anymore,
Speaker 1: and worth it is like what three hundred and fifteen
Speaker 1: million dollar contracts something like that.
Speaker 3: The Giants are going to pay that baby out. The
Speaker 3: Giants are on the hook for it all. They the
Speaker 3: problems that he developed in Boston had to do with
Speaker 3: he wanted to play third base right, and then they
Speaker 3: brought it, bringing Alex Bregman and tell him you're going
Speaker 3: to be the DH and he's like, I don't like that,
Speaker 3: but fine, I'll be the DH. And then they lose
Speaker 3: their first basement and they're like, hey, you got a
Speaker 3: first basement, SMIT, and he's.
Speaker 2: Like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3: You guys told me I was the DH. Not you
Speaker 3: can't keep you can't have an outfielder go down. And
Speaker 3: then I go play in the outfield and.
Speaker 1: He started blowing plays at first right.
Speaker 3: Well, he he's this, he's mental. I'm pointing to my head.
Speaker 3: He's mental in that so much of his game can
Speaker 3: be affected by whatever's going on in the outside world.
Speaker 3: In you know, he's met with the team ownership and
Speaker 3: was mad. He just became a cancer in that clubhouse.
Speaker 3: And the Boston Red Sox are not bad. That's the
Speaker 3: thing is. They have a change there.
Speaker 2: But you don't need that.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So as great as it is for the Giants to
Speaker 3: pick up a bat, which they need and they currently
Speaker 3: need a third basement because Matt Chapman is on the il.
Speaker 1: But there's nothing like a player with a chip on
Speaker 1: his shoulder getting a fresh start. I mean, that is electricity.
Speaker 2: It could be. We hope.
Speaker 3: So I'm sorry, I hope, so, I hope So far
Speaker 3: you they play against not an issue tonight. The biggest
Speaker 3: news baseball wise is that Shoheo Tani will be back
Speaker 3: on the mound making his Dodgers pitching debut against the Padres.
Speaker 3: Probably the way it's written, probably only a couple of innings. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I think he only pitched forty five, maybe fifty pitches
Speaker 3: in the last simulated game, which is supposedly him throwing
Speaker 3: it to full velocity, but we'll see. Dave Roberts did
Speaker 3: say it's very exciting. He said, I'm still a baseball fan. First,
Speaker 3: the anticipation here for the game is it's going to
Speaker 3: be bananas when it happens, a lot of anticipation. I
Speaker 3: think we've done it the right way as far as
Speaker 3: the process, so which is weird. I would have if
Speaker 3: the Dodgers have all season had problems with injuries so
Speaker 3: that they're their bullpen has been thin, why would just
Speaker 3: why why put him in now? Why not let him
Speaker 3: work up to a four or five or six inning
Speaker 3: capability before you before you get him back on the mountain.
Speaker 1: Well, they've done the simulating the games as well. Let
Speaker 1: him cool off after that. But they are very shorthand.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers are fourteen pitchers on their injured list, including
Speaker 1: four starters.
Speaker 2: It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Blake Snell ironically whose bubbleheaded is Tonight, Tyler Glass, now
Speaker 1: Sasaki and Tony Gonsolin. So his injury, if you want
Speaker 1: to know, was a Grade two sprain of his ulner
Speaker 1: collateral ligament that requested or required I should say, Tommy
Speaker 1: John surgery.
Speaker 2: That's on the outside. Radius is on the thumb side.
Speaker 2: Olna's not Ulna.
Speaker 1: I don't remember they said that. Shohe has been getting
Speaker 1: very antsy, which is a good sign.
Speaker 2: Unbelievable. He's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: He really is. It's something that you you should watch
Speaker 1: and enjoy and just reveling because you're going to see
Speaker 1: a player like this again.
Speaker 3: All right, swamp watch when we come back to Gary
Speaker 3: and Shannon. You've been listening to The Gary and Shannon Show.
