00:00:02.879 --> 00:00:05.200
<v Speaker 1>I A M six forty, the Gary and Shannon Show

00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:10.599
<v Speaker 1>on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Texted one of my

4
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Padres friends this morning, how those say? How those Padres doing?

5
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:19.199
<v Speaker 1>They don't The Padres fans do not like s talking.

6
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:23.000
<v Speaker 1>No response, there's no. They're not good at it. They're

7
00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:24.879
<v Speaker 1>not good at it. They beat the Giants, Yeah, but

8
00:00:24.879 --> 00:00:25.920
<v Speaker 1>they're still in third place.

9
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:26.199
<v Speaker 2>Right.

10
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:28.879
<v Speaker 1>Uh, you'd have to check that, but yeah, I think

11
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:32.439
<v Speaker 1>they are behind them. Listen, Padres fans, I mean they're

12
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:35.159
<v Speaker 1>they're good. They're when they're right and high, they're they're

13
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:40.359
<v Speaker 1>a love delightful people, lovely people. But when they're losing, man,

14
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:43.600
<v Speaker 1>and I'm listen, I can't.

15
00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:45.119
<v Speaker 3>Take the heat. Get out of the NLS.

16
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:48.560
<v Speaker 4>As a Giants fan, it's hard to exist in southern

17
00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:52.000
<v Speaker 4>California because all you're surrounded by Dodgers fans. And but

18
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:55.679
<v Speaker 4>there's that good friendly teta tet, if you will, the

19
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:56.799
<v Speaker 4>friendly given.

20
00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:02.079
<v Speaker 3>Tet, the old ballpark, the fun testing of each other's.

21
00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:04.599
<v Speaker 4>Jibes against each o, the jibes.

22
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:05.799
<v Speaker 3>A gentlemanly sport.

23
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:09.879
<v Speaker 4>Ah, Man, you tangle some of those Padres fans from

24
00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:10.599
<v Speaker 4>there in third place.

25
00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:11.879
<v Speaker 5>You don't mess a out with those people.

26
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:15.200
<v Speaker 6>I can only imagine how said Jeff olrich Is over

27
00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:18.439
<v Speaker 6>that one hundred thousand dollars. I remember how said my

28
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:21.560
<v Speaker 6>dad was when I called a nine hundred number once

29
00:01:21.560 --> 00:01:23.680
<v Speaker 6>and it was like five bucks, right, it was like

30
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:25.359
<v Speaker 6>thirty years ago, and I still never.

31
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Heard the Yeah, my dad would get mad if I

32
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:30.599
<v Speaker 1>stayed on too long with my grandma, his mother because

33
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:33.040
<v Speaker 1>of the long distance charge. You know what I mean, Like,

34
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:36.200
<v Speaker 1>dads don't play when it comes to money. Even if

35
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:39.120
<v Speaker 1>you had a career in the NFL and you have

36
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:40.879
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of money. And I don't know how much

37
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:43.680
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Olbrick made, but he had a pretty substantial career

38
00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:46.159
<v Speaker 1>from what I remember, didn't make the nearly the money

39
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:49.879
<v Speaker 1>they make now. But I mean, dads do not play

40
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:53.280
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to money. Like it could be five dollars,

41
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:56.280
<v Speaker 1>it could be wasting. It's the wasting of the money.

42
00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>And this is an enormous waste of one hundred thousand dollars.

43
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:03.439
<v Speaker 1>This isn't your kid wanted to go to Duke and

44
00:02:03.480 --> 00:02:05.439
<v Speaker 1>you paid a bunch of money and you paid tuition.

45
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:07.439
<v Speaker 5>Then the kids like I'm not into it.

46
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:10.479
<v Speaker 3>Years ago puppetry degree. Yeah, and then you just got

47
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:12.159
<v Speaker 3>to eat it like that's that's different.

48
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:16.280
<v Speaker 1>This is an enormous waste of a hundred thousand dollars.

49
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:18.919
<v Speaker 4>Where do those fines generally go? Do they go to

50
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:20.680
<v Speaker 4>like NFL Foundation or something?

51
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't matter, I know, I'm just curious the dynamic duo.

52
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:30.080
<v Speaker 3>I really think you guys should market that T shirt

53
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:31.759
<v Speaker 3>that's saying.

54
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:34.560
<v Speaker 5>You have an acceptable face.

55
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:40.639
<v Speaker 3>I like it, you guys an acceptable face.

56
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.319
<v Speaker 1>I gotta say that just is not for a throwaway comment.

57
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:46.759
<v Speaker 1>That is not going away anytime.

58
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 3>Soon, is it? It's time for swamp. I got a

59
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:58.680
<v Speaker 3>politician that one. Yeah, that's all right. You're going to

60
00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:02.800
<v Speaker 3>confuse el Murphy. I mean, that's all right. Politicians. We

61
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.000
<v Speaker 3>did a different time yesterday. And when I'm not kissing beat,

62
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:08.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm stealing that we.

63
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:11.319
<v Speaker 7>Got the real problem is that our leaders are done.

64
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 5>The other side never quits.

65
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:18.360
<v Speaker 3>So what I'm not going anywhere? So that now you train.

66
00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:20.680
<v Speaker 1>The swat, I can imagine what can be and be

67
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:22.960
<v Speaker 1>unburdened by what has been, you know, have.

68
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:26.159
<v Speaker 3>Always been gone a president, they're not stupid.

69
00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:29.120
<v Speaker 8>A political flunder is when a politician actually tells the truth.

70
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:31.800
<v Speaker 3>Have the people voted for you were not swap watch

71
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:32.840
<v Speaker 3>they're all counting on.

72
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:38.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay, well, what were you going to say? It's

73
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:41.199
<v Speaker 1>not real important. Trump's cabinet. He had a cabinet meeting

74
00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:43.840
<v Speaker 1>today at the White House. Uh, They're doing this on

75
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:47.199
<v Speaker 1>a very regular basis. He starts with comments.

76
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:51.080
<v Speaker 4>Today's comments had to do with the GDP numbers that

77
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:52.840
<v Speaker 4>came out this morning for GDP.

78
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:56.400
<v Speaker 7>And this is you know, you probably saw some numbers today,

79
00:03:56.800 --> 00:03:58.680
<v Speaker 7>and I have to start off, I say, that's Biden.

80
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:02.120
<v Speaker 3>That's not because we came in on January. Just a

81
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:03.000
<v Speaker 3>quarterly numbers.

82
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:06.520
<v Speaker 4>Now, what he does is he's saying that when you

83
00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:09.840
<v Speaker 4>take out some of the extraneous numbers, the economy still

84
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:13.919
<v Speaker 4>has some strength to it. Peter Navarro, the Trade advisor,

85
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:16.800
<v Speaker 4>also put quite the spin on it this morning.

86
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:21.480
<v Speaker 9>This was the best negative print, as they say in

87
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:24.839
<v Speaker 9>the Trade for GDP, I have ever seen in my life.

88
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:29.800
<v Speaker 9>It really should be very positive news for America.

89
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:34.360
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I don't know about that, but it is the

90
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:38.040
<v Speaker 4>three tenths of a percent drop in GDP for the

91
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 4>first quarter of the year. Trump blamed it on Biden.

92
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:45.639
<v Speaker 4>And said as much in a truth social post. It

93
00:04:45.720 --> 00:04:47.480
<v Speaker 4>was one of the issues that came up last night,

94
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:51.680
<v Speaker 4>very long one hundred day interview, with a very long

95
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:54.519
<v Speaker 4>interview to mark one hundred days in office. He did

96
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:57.720
<v Speaker 4>it with ABC News as Terry Moran, did you hear

97
00:04:57.759 --> 00:04:58.240
<v Speaker 4>the line?

98
00:04:58.319 --> 00:04:58.839
<v Speaker 3>He said?

99
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:02.879
<v Speaker 4>As to he, Trump apparently got to choose who did

100
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.360
<v Speaker 4>the interview. That was part of the deal that they struck, okay,

101
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:10.480
<v Speaker 4>and he said he chose Terry Moran and not David

102
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:14.160
<v Speaker 4>Muir or George Stephanopolis because he had never heard of him.

103
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:17.680
<v Speaker 4>He had never heard of Terry Moran, which was a

104
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:20.720
<v Speaker 4>of course, it was a dig. Of of course, it

105
00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:24.920
<v Speaker 4>was quite the line. But anyway, Terry Moran had asked him,

106
00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:28.560
<v Speaker 4>things are not going well economically, at least, you know,

107
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:32.720
<v Speaker 4>tariff wise. Stock markets are down, people are losing money

108
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:35.279
<v Speaker 4>in their four oh one k's. We're not seeing the relief,

109
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:39.560
<v Speaker 4>the general price relief that we were expecting, although egg

110
00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:42.079
<v Speaker 4>prices have gone down, gas prices have gone down and

111
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:45.920
<v Speaker 4>things like that. So Terry Moran asked him, did people

112
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:47.800
<v Speaker 4>sign up for this when they voted for you?

113
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:50.279
<v Speaker 7>Well, they did sign up for it, actually, And this

114
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.279
<v Speaker 7>is what I campaigned on I said that we've been

115
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:56.920
<v Speaker 7>abused by other countries at levels that nobody's ever seen before.

116
00:05:57.079 --> 00:05:59.120
<v Speaker 7>I could have left it that way, and at some

117
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:02.959
<v Speaker 7>point that would have been an implosion like nobody's ever seen,

118
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:05.439
<v Speaker 7>but I said no, we have to fix it.

119
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:11.279
<v Speaker 1>Also on Capitol Hill today, the Senate Commerce Committee has

120
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:16.279
<v Speaker 1>appeared poised to advance that bill to make daylight saving

121
00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:22.160
<v Speaker 1>time permanent. It seems lawmakers are coalescing around the idea

122
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:26.360
<v Speaker 1>of ending the practice of changing the clocks twice a year.

123
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:32.519
<v Speaker 1>The panel is deeply divided over whether to embrace permanent

124
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:35.120
<v Speaker 1>daylight saving time or standard time.

125
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:37.040
<v Speaker 3>However, they don't.

126
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:39.000
<v Speaker 5>So they're in agreement to some.

127
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Degree to stop f and with the clocks just pick

128
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:46.360
<v Speaker 1>a time, but they can't decide on the time. Ted

129
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:48.959
<v Speaker 1>Cruz is a committee chair. He said, there are times

130
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:50.600
<v Speaker 1>when you have a hearing on a bill and you're

131
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:52.240
<v Speaker 1>trying to move forward with a bill and you think

132
00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:54.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a clear right answer. This is not one of

133
00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:55.839
<v Speaker 1>those times, at least for me.

134
00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:56.600
<v Speaker 5>He says.

135
00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.279
<v Speaker 1>The testimony we're heard at the beginning persuaded me that

136
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>we should lock the clock. The practice of springing forward

137
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:08.000
<v Speaker 1>and falling backward every year. Doesn't make sense. He went

138
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:10.360
<v Speaker 1>on to vote to advance the legislation. This is from

139
00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:14.079
<v Speaker 1>Rick Scott, which would move to make daylight saving time

140
00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:17.160
<v Speaker 1>the default. That would result in the more daylight in

141
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:19.439
<v Speaker 1>the evening hours with less in the morning.

142
00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:21.480
<v Speaker 3>It would stay.

143
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:25.720
<v Speaker 4>Well, you get into late mid late December and you're

144
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:27.759
<v Speaker 4>driving to work at eight in the morning and it's

145
00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:34.120
<v Speaker 4>still dark, that'd be weird. Not eight, yeah, yeah, yeah,

146
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:36.199
<v Speaker 4>pretty close. D eight o'clock it would still be dark.

147
00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:40.879
<v Speaker 3>No, yes, maybe seven. We did the math on this before.

148
00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:43.399
<v Speaker 4>It's still dark at seven when you drive now, and

149
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:44.399
<v Speaker 4>it's not Yeah it is.

150
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:44.959
<v Speaker 3>No, it's not.

151
00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:45.680
<v Speaker 5>It's light.

152
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:49.319
<v Speaker 1>It is light when I'm in my ballet zoom class

153
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:50.759
<v Speaker 1>at sixteen twenty right now.

154
00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:53.399
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I'm talking about December. December.

155
00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:56.600
<v Speaker 4>In December, when you're driving to work at seven in

156
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:58.319
<v Speaker 4>the morning, it's still dark outside.

157
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:02.399
<v Speaker 3>Not eight though. But if we change the clock.

158
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:05.839
<v Speaker 5>I'm not going to die on this hill. It's not like.

159
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:08.240
<v Speaker 3>Old But here's what's funny. Here's not funny.

160
00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:10.560
<v Speaker 5>The State Commerce Committee to me, this.

161
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:13.600
<v Speaker 4>Is like I don't I could care just choose, I

162
00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:14.439
<v Speaker 4>don't care.

163
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:17.480
<v Speaker 3>To choose, and then let's stopping with the clock. It's

164
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:18.240
<v Speaker 3>one one.

165
00:08:19.519 --> 00:08:22.959
<v Speaker 1>They both come with their benefits and their and their detractions.

166
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:27.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm angry that there's that much of an argument. Angry.

167
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:30.680
<v Speaker 3>I am also out of Washington, d c.

168
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:36.080
<v Speaker 4>They Supreme Court today was hearing arguments on a bid

169
00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:41.120
<v Speaker 4>to create the nation's first tax payer funded religious charter school.

170
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:45.000
<v Speaker 4>All right, this one is down in Oklahoma. Some unusual

171
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:47.679
<v Speaker 4>things about it. In that Justice Amy Cony Barrett has

172
00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:50.960
<v Speaker 4>recused herself apparent least she's very close friends with somebody

173
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:55.759
<v Speaker 4>who wants to represent Saint Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School.

174
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:59.240
<v Speaker 4>Chief Justice round John Roberts is considered to be going

175
00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:05.720
<v Speaker 4>to be this wing vote because with the three traditionally

176
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:11.960
<v Speaker 4>liberal justices and now the five conservative justices. At the

177
00:09:11.960 --> 00:09:14.000
<v Speaker 4>onset of the argument, he was questioning some of the

178
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:17.480
<v Speaker 4>positions that were advanced by the Catholic School, but by

179
00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:20.080
<v Speaker 4>the time the two hour argument concluded, he seemed a

180
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.879
<v Speaker 4>little bit more open to siding with the school. So

181
00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:25.879
<v Speaker 4>we'll see exactly how that plays out. But one of

182
00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:28.120
<v Speaker 4>those big Supreme Court cases that's going to get a

183
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:31.159
<v Speaker 4>lot of attention when it's decided later in the spring.

184
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Coming up next the Netflix CEO says movie theaters are outdated. Well, no,

185
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:39.960
<v Speaker 1>s Do they have a plan on how to move

186
00:09:40.240 --> 00:09:42.120
<v Speaker 1>them into the future or are we just going to

187
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:42.679
<v Speaker 1>get rid of them.

188
00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:43.879
<v Speaker 5>We'll talk about it when we come back.

189
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:45.279

<v Speaker 3>So keep an eye on.

219
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:05.399
<v Speaker 1>Ted Sarandos is the Netflix CEO, and he did an

220
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:09.840
<v Speaker 1>interview recently. It started with this question, have you sorry?

221
00:11:10.679 --> 00:11:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Have you destroyed Hollywood?

222
00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:15.679
<v Speaker 11>Things do not look so good in the entertainment industry.

223
00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:19.679
<v Speaker 11>The box office is down, the LA film business is shaky,

224
00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:23.039
<v Speaker 11>people are out of work. Your competitor's market share is sinking.

225
00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:28.440
<v Speaker 11>But Netflix business is thriving. Have you destroyed Hollywood?

226
00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:30.679
<v Speaker 2>Now we're saving Hollywood.

227
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:32.159
<v Speaker 3>You're saving Hollywood. Yeah.

228
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Look, what's the big difference of everything you just listed

229
00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:38.960
<v Speaker 2>there is that Netflix is a very consumer focused company.

230
00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:42.360
<v Speaker 2>We really do care that we deliver the program into

231
00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:43.919
<v Speaker 2>you in a way you want to watch it, that

232
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:46.759
<v Speaker 2>it's programming that you love and desire, So we don't

233
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:49.679
<v Speaker 2>let you know, a lot of other outside forces get

234
00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:52.240
<v Speaker 2>in the way of that. So an example, I think

235
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:54.200
<v Speaker 2>is that you mentioned the box office being down, just

236
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.559
<v Speaker 2>by way of example, what does that say. What is

237
00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:59.240
<v Speaker 2>the consumer trying to tell us that they'd like to

238
00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:02.120
<v Speaker 2>watch movies at home, thank you? And the studios and

239
00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:05.720
<v Speaker 2>the theaters are duking it out over trying to preserve

240
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:08.000
<v Speaker 2>this forty five day window that is completely out of

241
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.120
<v Speaker 2>step with the consumer experience of just living a movie.

242
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:12.639
<v Speaker 3>He makes some great points there.

243
00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:15.759
<v Speaker 4>The idea of this forty five day window, by the way,

244
00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:20.639
<v Speaker 4>is that theater owners want to keep exclusivity. They want

245
00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:23.240
<v Speaker 4>to be able to say that first run movies are

246
00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:26.360
<v Speaker 4>only available in movie theaters for the first forty five days,

247
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:29.039
<v Speaker 4>and even then. The way it's working now is the

248
00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:31.559
<v Speaker 4>movie can have that exclusivity, or the theaters can have

249
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:34.799
<v Speaker 4>that exclusivity. But then once it goes to streaming, you

250
00:12:34.840 --> 00:12:39.799
<v Speaker 4>can get relatively recent movies if you're willing to pay

251
00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:43.480
<v Speaker 4>nineteen bucks for him. In some cases you wait a

252
00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:45.200
<v Speaker 4>little bit longer the priceper is down.

253
00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:48.519
<v Speaker 3>Going to the movie and sitting with the crooks, Yeah,

254
00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:49.200
<v Speaker 3>the crooks.

255
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:51.799
<v Speaker 5>I just assume everyone's a crook.

256
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:56.679
<v Speaker 3>What I met the crowds and it gave out crooks.

257
00:12:56.759 --> 00:13:00.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't know why, But sitting with a Brooks on

258
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:02.120
<v Speaker 3>the I don't know.

259
00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:02.600
<v Speaker 5>Why said that.

260
00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:07.519
<v Speaker 1>Sitting with the crowds and their noises and their bodiliest situations.

261
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:08.639
<v Speaker 5>You know, I'm not a fan.

262
00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:11.200
<v Speaker 1>And that's one thing that did not make a comeback

263
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.519
<v Speaker 1>from you post pandemic. I used to love going to

264
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:16.679
<v Speaker 1>the theater, movie theater, and I just cannot watch a

265
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:17.639
<v Speaker 1>movie with strangers.

266
00:13:17.639 --> 00:13:20.039
<v Speaker 4>And I worked in a movie theater for a couple

267
00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:22.440
<v Speaker 4>of summers and it was the greatest time.

268
00:13:22.600 --> 00:13:24.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it never took away.

269
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:26.919
<v Speaker 4>You know, sometimes people, if you get a little too

270
00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:29.559
<v Speaker 4>close to something that mad joy, then you start to

271
00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:31.879
<v Speaker 4>see how bad. I never lost it. I always loved

272
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:34.120
<v Speaker 4>about that with football. I love the smell of the

273
00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:36.200
<v Speaker 4>popcorn and the stickiness of the floor.

274
00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:37.360
<v Speaker 3>There was always something about it.

275
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:40.919
<v Speaker 4>And part of the part of the allure was you

276
00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:47.440
<v Speaker 4>could never even come close to mimicking that experience at home. Yeah,

277
00:13:47.480 --> 00:13:50.039
<v Speaker 4>and now you can. I mean now you can get

278
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:52.759
<v Speaker 4>a TV that's too big for your wall, and you

279
00:13:52.799 --> 00:13:55.240
<v Speaker 4>can get a sound system that and you can.

280
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:56.399
<v Speaker 5>Get the popcorn in the M and M.

281
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:58.240
<v Speaker 3>I need get the popcorn. You get it all. You

282
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:01.559
<v Speaker 3>can get the whole thing, and the probably the biggest one.

283
00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:05.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't think there's one. Oh right here, the pause button.

284
00:14:06.399 --> 00:14:08.960
<v Speaker 3>You can pee and you don't have to race to

285
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:09.679
<v Speaker 3>the pisser.

286
00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:13.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, say that, and you can answer the door or

287
00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:13.720
<v Speaker 4>the phone.

288
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you choose all sorts of things. You can

289
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:23.120
<v Speaker 1>get ice cream. How did you know that that you

290
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:25.519
<v Speaker 1>go and get ice cream? It's not and it was

291
00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:29.159
<v Speaker 1>because what's better than a movie at home with ice cream?

292
00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:29.840
<v Speaker 5>Ice cream?

293
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:34.080
<v Speaker 4>He did say that there are limited theatrical releases. Again,

294
00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:38.480
<v Speaker 4>this is Ted Sarandos, the CEO at at Netflix. One

295
00:14:38.480 --> 00:14:42.600
<v Speaker 4>of the things because they are not just a they're

296
00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:46.120
<v Speaker 4>not just a clearing house for movies, they're a producer

297
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:50.879
<v Speaker 4>as well. Is they have produced movies that then go

298
00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:56.120
<v Speaker 4>into the movie theaters. First Knives Out, Glass Onion Emilia

299
00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:58.840
<v Speaker 4>Perez was a Netflix movie that started in the theaters

300
00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:01.039
<v Speaker 4>and then made its way to the street service. And

301
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:05.000
<v Speaker 4>he referred to some of the rules for the Academy

302
00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:09.919
<v Speaker 4>Awards are that you have to have at least some

303
00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:15.519
<v Speaker 4>movie theater exposure before that show would be eligible for awards,

304
00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:17.200
<v Speaker 4>and that was one of the things that he has

305
00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:19.240
<v Speaker 4>talked to. But he said one of the things that

306
00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:22.000
<v Speaker 4>he encourages each of the directors that work with Netflix

307
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:25.120
<v Speaker 4>now is give the audience what they want. If it

308
00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:27.240
<v Speaker 4>is a big action movie that they want to go

309
00:15:27.279 --> 00:15:30.159
<v Speaker 4>see in a theater, yeah, let's open it in a

310
00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:30.720
<v Speaker 4>movie theater.

311
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:32.200
<v Speaker 3>Let's make it a theatrical release.

312
00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:36.000
<v Speaker 4>But if it's something that's a little quieter, a little slower,

313
00:15:36.159 --> 00:15:38.440
<v Speaker 4>maybe a little more dramatic that you don't need a

314
00:15:38.440 --> 00:15:41.360
<v Speaker 4>giant screen for, throw it on Netflix and make it

315
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:42.320
<v Speaker 4>available to everybody.

316
00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:45.759
<v Speaker 3>Amen. Brother, you say that again. Amen, brother, say you

317
00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:50.120
<v Speaker 3>with your chest? Amen? Brother? All right?

318
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Justin Wisham's coming up next. How did it get to

319
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:54.480
<v Speaker 1>be eleven thirty? Where did the day go?

320
00:15:54.600 --> 00:15:55.279
<v Speaker 3>I do not know.

321
00:15:55.679 --> 00:15:59.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we were talking about escape kangaroos and the laws.

322
00:15:59.320 --> 00:16:01.320
<v Speaker 1>We learned that we can and have a kangaroo without

323
00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:03.759
<v Speaker 1>a permit in South Carolina. Other than that, I don't

324
00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:05.320
<v Speaker 1>remember what else we've talked about today.

325
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:10.679
<v Speaker 10>You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

326
00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:13.240
<v Speaker 10>AM six forty.

327
00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:16.519
<v Speaker 1>Don't forget to let us know what you are watching.

328
00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:20.480
<v Speaker 1>It is a what you watch on Wednesday. We have

329
00:16:20.559 --> 00:16:23.320
<v Speaker 1>been into what I've been into Friends and Neighbors with

330
00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:28.720
<v Speaker 1>John ham Hacks Season four, I'm trying to get into

331
00:16:28.759 --> 00:16:34.399
<v Speaker 1>that ballet Amazon Prime show at twelve. There's moments where

332
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:36.200
<v Speaker 1>I love it and there's moments where I'm like, eh,

333
00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:37.559
<v Speaker 1>so I'm trying to see if it's one.

334
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:39.960
<v Speaker 5>Of those just wait till episode four situations.

335
00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.039
<v Speaker 3>And it's a whole series. I thought it was a movie.

336
00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:42.720
<v Speaker 5>This is a series.

337
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:44.120
<v Speaker 4>I thought I was going to leave my wife for

338
00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:46.440
<v Speaker 4>one night and let her get it out of her system, and.

339
00:16:46.360 --> 00:16:49.879
<v Speaker 1>Now it's she she's not impressed by it. Yeah, I

340
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Speaker 1>haven't been either. I mean, there's parts of it that

341
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:55.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, that's well done. There's actual ballet dancers, actual

342
00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:59.159
<v Speaker 1>dancing going on, which is odd. It's usually they kind

343
00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:00.799
<v Speaker 1>of fake their way through that if it's going to

344
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:01.840
<v Speaker 1>be a show about dancing.

345
00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:03.360
<v Speaker 3>But that's my favorite.

346
00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:05.359
<v Speaker 8>Thing whenever there's dancing, and I always ask my wife,

347
00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:06.359
<v Speaker 8>I'm like, are they really good?

348
00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:07.839
<v Speaker 3>Ever?

349
00:17:07.960 --> 00:17:08.200
<v Speaker 10>Good?

350
00:17:08.319 --> 00:17:10.079
<v Speaker 5>And these ones are really good.

351
00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:13.480
<v Speaker 8>She's got she's more of a hip hop dancer pretending

352
00:17:13.519 --> 00:17:14.960
<v Speaker 8>to be a ballerinas like.

353
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:16.400
<v Speaker 5>Save the Last Man?

354
00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:22.839
<v Speaker 3>All right, nailed it. Justin Morsham has joined us takes. Yeah,

355
00:17:23.079 --> 00:17:23.680
<v Speaker 3>we talked with you.

356
00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:26.319
<v Speaker 1>Don't get me started on center stage because that's a

357
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:27.839
<v Speaker 1>whole other thing.

358
00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:32.319
<v Speaker 4>Justin is probably the most popular multi hyphen it here.

359
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:34.279
<v Speaker 3>It's how does that work?

360
00:17:34.359 --> 00:17:34.519
<v Speaker 7>Well?

361
00:17:34.519 --> 00:17:37.000
<v Speaker 4>We talk about parenting on Wednesdays and on Sundays you

362
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:38.400
<v Speaker 4>roll in and talk about real estate.

363
00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:42.240
<v Speaker 3>These are renaissance to talk about adulting.

364
00:17:44.599 --> 00:17:48.359
<v Speaker 4>Uh, let's talk about successful kids that working on one

365
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:49.440
<v Speaker 4>key emotion.

366
00:17:50.279 --> 00:17:52.559
<v Speaker 8>And this was I gotta be honest, I was taken

367
00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:56.279
<v Speaker 8>aback by this that the key emotion for your kids

368
00:17:56.319 --> 00:17:58.759
<v Speaker 8>to grow up successful is awe.

369
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:01.200
<v Speaker 3>And I if I'm reading.

370
00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:03.359
<v Speaker 8>This correctly based on the information of the study, is

371
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:07.279
<v Speaker 8>that the parents need to be in awe of their children.

372
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:07.559
<v Speaker 6>What.

373
00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I thought it was going to be keep the

374
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.079
<v Speaker 1>awe in your kids as long as possible, so where

375
00:18:13.119 --> 00:18:15.680
<v Speaker 1>your kids are like, oh, that's wonderful or that's great,

376
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:18.119
<v Speaker 1>or that's beautiful or that's cool or you know, so

377
00:18:18.200 --> 00:18:20.440
<v Speaker 1>your kids aren't jaded quicker than they should be.

378
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:23.000
<v Speaker 8>And that could because there's other parts of it where

379
00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:26.000
<v Speaker 8>they allude to the fact that the parents who were

380
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:29.359
<v Speaker 8>also experiencing awe. So what my general takeaway from it

381
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:32.480
<v Speaker 8>was is that if your bar is very low, then

382
00:18:32.519 --> 00:18:35.599
<v Speaker 8>you tend to be happier in general and maybe more successful.

383
00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:37.720
<v Speaker 3>I think parents should be in awe of their kids.

384
00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:39.839
<v Speaker 5>Don't give it the kids. The power, isn't it?

385
00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:42.359
<v Speaker 3>I mean, don't get me wrong, My kids have there.

386
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:44.839
<v Speaker 8>Each of them have had two moments or one each

387
00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 8>where I was genuinely, insincerely in awe of what they

388
00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:50.400
<v Speaker 8>decided to do. So I was proud of them that

389
00:18:50.799 --> 00:18:54.000
<v Speaker 8>the proud pride is the second in this study. So

390
00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:56.680
<v Speaker 8>you the number one emotion for the predictor of success

391
00:18:56.759 --> 00:18:59.680
<v Speaker 8>is awe, and pride is number two, which I thought

392
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:00.000
<v Speaker 8>was all.

393
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:02.960
<v Speaker 5>When I think of in awe of something, I think like.

394
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:06.359
<v Speaker 1>Delighted or surprised by the magnitude.

395
00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:07.960
<v Speaker 8>They did the thing, and I'll try and pull it

396
00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:09.759
<v Speaker 8>up here. They did the thing of they gave you like.

397
00:19:09.839 --> 00:19:14.160
<v Speaker 8>The Webster's Dictionary defines all as and uh and a

398
00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:19.000
<v Speaker 8>different one the Merriam Webster Dictionary. An emotion variously combining dread, veneration,

399
00:19:19.240 --> 00:19:22.000
<v Speaker 8>and wonder that is inspired by authority or by the

400
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:23.240
<v Speaker 8>sacred or sublime.

401
00:19:23.319 --> 00:19:24.759
<v Speaker 4>Now hit the second one if you don't mind a

402
00:19:24.759 --> 00:19:27.359
<v Speaker 4>strong now this one from dictionary dot com. An overwhelming

403
00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:31.680
<v Speaker 4>feeling of reverence, admiration, fear, et cetera, produced by what

404
00:19:32.359 --> 00:19:36.119
<v Speaker 4>produced by that which is grand, sublime, extremely powerful or

405
00:19:36.119 --> 00:19:36.400
<v Speaker 4>the light.

406
00:19:36.599 --> 00:19:39.960
<v Speaker 3>Something that should be revered is not your child. Yeah,

407
00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:40.559
<v Speaker 3>and that's what.

408
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:42.279
<v Speaker 8>So again, this just kind of threw me off my

409
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:44.920
<v Speaker 8>balance because I'm like, am I supposed to be admire

410
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:47.039
<v Speaker 8>And there's a lot again, there's a lot of ways

411
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:49.880
<v Speaker 8>that I genuinely, sincerely do admire my kids. But I

412
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:52.319
<v Speaker 8>don't know, I don't know that you know, like to

413
00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:54.640
<v Speaker 8>me the equivalent of like, you know, who rescued who?

414
00:19:54.920 --> 00:20:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Well amazed if this kid does something kind or de know, wonderful,

415
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:01.039
<v Speaker 1>you can.

416
00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:02.920
<v Speaker 3>Can you imagine being a base because your kid does

417
00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:07.839
<v Speaker 3>something kind? So true, but my kids are selfish, little being.

418
00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:09.920
<v Speaker 8>Kids made me dinner last night while I was on

419
00:20:09.960 --> 00:20:13.000
<v Speaker 8>like a zoom meeting. And that's really like he was

420
00:20:13.079 --> 00:20:15.279
<v Speaker 8>sick or he was inhabited by an alien.

421
00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:17.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, you're doing that.

422
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:20.119
<v Speaker 1>That is when awe comes in conversation.

423
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:23.400
<v Speaker 4>So along those lines, when when you say awe, I

424
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:25.359
<v Speaker 4>think of the context of like, this is the most

425
00:20:25.400 --> 00:20:27.640
<v Speaker 4>beautiful sunset I've ever seen in my life.

426
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:30.400
<v Speaker 3>I can't wrap my head around what is going on

427
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:30.960
<v Speaker 3>right now.

428
00:20:31.920 --> 00:20:34.960
<v Speaker 4>If you if you are in awe of your kids,

429
00:20:36.319 --> 00:20:40.160
<v Speaker 4>maybe it's not because of what they've done, but you're like,

430
00:20:40.440 --> 00:20:43.839
<v Speaker 4>I can't believe that two human beings can get together

431
00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:45.720
<v Speaker 4>and create another human being.

432
00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:47.559
<v Speaker 3>I'm in awe of that person, and.

433
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:50.279
<v Speaker 5>You're in awe of yourself, not the kid.

434
00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:52.400
<v Speaker 3>It did say.

435
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:54.359
<v Speaker 8>The author of the article said, when I read things

436
00:20:54.400 --> 00:20:57.160
<v Speaker 8>like this, it reminds me, if I needed it to,

437
00:20:57.599 --> 00:21:01.599
<v Speaker 8>that being a parent really is an almost comprehensible gift,

438
00:21:01.799 --> 00:21:04.079
<v Speaker 8>which I do not feel that being a parent is

439
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:05.519
<v Speaker 8>an incomprehensive gift.

440
00:21:05.519 --> 00:21:06.880
<v Speaker 5>It sounds like I feel like it's a.

441
00:21:06.880 --> 00:21:08.680
<v Speaker 8>Job that I signed up for that I didn't know

442
00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:09.559
<v Speaker 8>what I was getting into.

443
00:21:09.759 --> 00:21:12.079
<v Speaker 3>But I do enjoy like that's how I like from

444
00:21:12.119 --> 00:21:13.839
<v Speaker 3>time to time. That's a better way to say, I

445
00:21:13.960 --> 00:21:16.000
<v Speaker 3>enjoy it from time to time. I do not find

446
00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:18.480
<v Speaker 3>joy in it every day. I don't. I probably am

447
00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:20.200
<v Speaker 3>through big swaths of it. I didn't.

448
00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:22.839
<v Speaker 8>I could say I did not find enjoyment from it

449
00:21:23.000 --> 00:21:26.000
<v Speaker 8>most of the time. Right there, it's fleeting moments of joy,

450
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:27.039
<v Speaker 8>and I have enjoyed.

451
00:21:26.759 --> 00:21:28.599
<v Speaker 5>It moment it's worth it.

452
00:21:28.759 --> 00:21:30.720
<v Speaker 8>They do that, But again, I don't know if this

453
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:33.200
<v Speaker 8>is like an evolutionary thing that we've just had, Like

454
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:34.960
<v Speaker 8>it has to be ingrained in us that we have

455
00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:38.400
<v Speaker 8>to psychologically think that because he smiles after he farts

456
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:38.799
<v Speaker 8>when he's.

457
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:41.240
<v Speaker 3>Kept me up all night, but that makes it all

458
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:44.079
<v Speaker 3>worth it. Maybe it is, but it's still there's a.

459
00:21:44.039 --> 00:21:47.319
<v Speaker 8>Little bit of, like I don't know, sociopathic aspects to it,

460
00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:50.000
<v Speaker 8>that you have to like trick yourself into finding the

461
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:51.759
<v Speaker 8>fun and being beat on and vomited on.

462
00:21:51.960 --> 00:21:53.200
<v Speaker 3>That's fine, it's true.

463
00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:57.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean, parents do make allowances for their kids a lot.

464
00:21:57.039 --> 00:21:59.160
<v Speaker 3>And then they get older and all they do is not.

465
00:21:59.079 --> 00:22:01.880
<v Speaker 8>Appreciate you and become generally annoyed by you and don't

466
00:22:01.880 --> 00:22:04.519
<v Speaker 8>want you around. Like so, I'm just when I see this,

467
00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:07.359
<v Speaker 8>it's a thing that's very conflicting for me because obviously

468
00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:09.160
<v Speaker 8>I come to here, I cry about my kids.

469
00:22:09.240 --> 00:22:10.039
<v Speaker 3>I love them dearly.

470
00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:12.359
<v Speaker 8>I could not imagine my life being any different than

471
00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:14.079
<v Speaker 8>what it is, but I did not. I do not

472
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:16.680
<v Speaker 8>think I would use awe to describe how I feel

473
00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:18.680
<v Speaker 8>a good chunk of the time. And maybe we'll see,

474
00:22:18.680 --> 00:22:21.240
<v Speaker 8>maybe my kids will be less successful because of it.

475
00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:24.960
<v Speaker 5>No, that is not true, you know, because.

476
00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:29.599
<v Speaker 3>Listen, you're a successful guy. I thank you. Clearly I

477
00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:30.240
<v Speaker 3>have hyphens.

478
00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:33.880
<v Speaker 4>Your dad would not be in awe of you. No,

479
00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:36.799
<v Speaker 4>and if he was, he would never admit it. Which

480
00:22:36.799 --> 00:22:39.039
<v Speaker 4>is a funny thing because I feel like this is

481
00:22:39.079 --> 00:22:42.799
<v Speaker 4>the push towards telling your kids that you're in awe

482
00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:47.640
<v Speaker 4>of them, and that I think puts a very that's

483
00:22:47.640 --> 00:22:48.400
<v Speaker 4>a bad move.

484
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:51.559
<v Speaker 1>That's awful. It's so stupid. I think it's really stupid.

485
00:22:51.880 --> 00:22:55.680
<v Speaker 1>I feel like the thing that I've strived for is

486
00:22:55.720 --> 00:22:57.519
<v Speaker 1>to hear that my parents are proud of me.

487
00:22:58.039 --> 00:22:59.759
<v Speaker 5>That's like the number one thing.

488
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:02.440
<v Speaker 3>And I think, and.

489
00:23:01.640 --> 00:23:04.559
<v Speaker 1>It's never changed throughout my entire life, like that's what

490
00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:04.960
<v Speaker 1>I want.

491
00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:05.599
<v Speaker 3>You want that?

492
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:07.960
<v Speaker 8>And there's this weird I think high wire tuggle war

493
00:23:08.039 --> 00:23:10.440
<v Speaker 8>whatever where it's like because if they give the pride

494
00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:13.960
<v Speaker 8>too fast and easy, then it's like it doesn't feel earned.

495
00:23:14.000 --> 00:23:15.720
<v Speaker 3>They've got to pay attention to.

496
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:17.200
<v Speaker 5>You for thirty five years.

497
00:23:17.079 --> 00:23:19.640
<v Speaker 3>Exactly right, like you can't. But isn't it funny how

498
00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:21.960
<v Speaker 3>we all we all have these similar vibes like I

499
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:25.119
<v Speaker 3>have this one, and you should want that as a kid.

500
00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:26.759
<v Speaker 1>You should want to make your parent proud and your

501
00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:28.519
<v Speaker 1>parents should want to be proud of you.

502
00:23:28.519 --> 00:23:29.640
<v Speaker 5>You know all of these things.

503
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:33.000
<v Speaker 1>The awe thing is just like give me that's a

504
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:36.359
<v Speaker 1>little too new parent age foo food to me be

505
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:37.799
<v Speaker 1>in awe of your check coming back.

506
00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:41.119
<v Speaker 8>This right here is my biggest feared anxiety I've always

507
00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:43.279
<v Speaker 8>had as a parent is that I've always felt exactly

508
00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:45.799
<v Speaker 8>like we're all saying we feel yeah, but I'm like,

509
00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:48.319
<v Speaker 8>what if everybody else who is blowing that much sunshine

510
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:51.000
<v Speaker 8>up their kids a that like that's they're actually the one.

511
00:23:51.160 --> 00:23:53.359
<v Speaker 1>I have a lot of friends, most of my friends

512
00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:56.880
<v Speaker 1>have kids, and that that is never a conversation I

513
00:23:57.039 --> 00:23:59.839
<v Speaker 1>was in of my daughter and like, that's not a thing.

514
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:01.880
<v Speaker 3>I've never heard somebody keep that much praise on that.

515
00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:03.920
<v Speaker 4>But let me go back to what I said earlier,

516
00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:06.319
<v Speaker 4>when I said that when you think of awe, of

517
00:24:06.480 --> 00:24:09.440
<v Speaker 4>being in awe of something this bigger than you, I'm

518
00:24:09.440 --> 00:24:11.839
<v Speaker 4>in awe of the skyscraper that I would never be

519
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:13.480
<v Speaker 4>able to design or build or anything.

520
00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:14.680
<v Speaker 3>If you.

521
00:24:16.279 --> 00:24:19.000
<v Speaker 4>Display that, if you show that to your kids, not

522
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:22.559
<v Speaker 4>directed towards them, but you show them that you are

523
00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:26.640
<v Speaker 4>still capable of being impressed by something that I think

524
00:24:26.720 --> 00:24:29.359
<v Speaker 4>is a good quality today exactly because then that gives

525
00:24:29.680 --> 00:24:31.720
<v Speaker 4>that gives the kid the ability to not be a

526
00:24:31.799 --> 00:24:34.680
<v Speaker 4>giant jade, like you said earlier, a jaded a hole

527
00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:35.640
<v Speaker 4>through the rest of their life.

528
00:24:35.759 --> 00:24:38.079
<v Speaker 1>One of my least favorite things when a child is

529
00:24:38.079 --> 00:24:41.440
<v Speaker 1>not impressed by something.

530
00:24:39.680 --> 00:24:44.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I agree. I mean they should all be impressed

531
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:46.279
<v Speaker 3>by you. No no, no, no, not me.

532
00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean by you know, even if it's just like

533
00:24:49.960 --> 00:24:53.359
<v Speaker 1>a meal out or they got for Christmas.

534
00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:55.960
<v Speaker 4>Like, they can't wrap their head around the fact they

535
00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:58.960
<v Speaker 4>don't deserve it. You gave it to them because you

536
00:24:58.960 --> 00:25:01.920
<v Speaker 4>you love them, right whatever, right, But they don't get

537
00:25:02.000 --> 00:25:04.920
<v Speaker 4>the awe that should be involved with Yeah, you spent

538
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:08.799
<v Speaker 4>how much money on a game system that's gonna eat

539
00:25:08.920 --> 00:25:09.680
<v Speaker 4>my brain out?

540
00:25:09.839 --> 00:25:12.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I love it, Thank you. Yeah, I'm at all

541
00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:15.000
<v Speaker 3>of you. I'm in awe of that. I mean that

542
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:16.359
<v Speaker 3>I pulled a fast one on.

543
00:25:16.519 --> 00:25:18.720
<v Speaker 1>I will get the you know, text messages from friends

544
00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:22.279
<v Speaker 1>like can you believe they're you know, thirteen and fifteen?

545
00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Can you believe I made these kids? You know what

546
00:25:24.000 --> 00:25:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean kind of thing, and and.

547
00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:27.640
<v Speaker 3>That I get the awe there of like you.

548
00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Know, like we were talking about, I can see that like,

549
00:25:30.839 --> 00:25:32.960
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, I did this, we did this, We've

550
00:25:33.000 --> 00:25:35.079
<v Speaker 1>all done this, the family has done this. Look at them.

551
00:25:35.119 --> 00:25:36.839
<v Speaker 1>They're they're grown up and they're not broken.

552
00:25:37.799 --> 00:25:40.279
<v Speaker 8>So here's one last bit of perspective is that it

553
00:25:40.279 --> 00:25:43.000
<v Speaker 8>also says there was a twenty twenty study that found

554
00:25:43.000 --> 00:25:45.720
<v Speaker 8>that if you spent fifteen minutes in a walk out

555
00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:48.160
<v Speaker 8>in nature where the things you were seeing were things

556
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:49.960
<v Speaker 8>that you would be considered to be in awe of,

557
00:25:50.559 --> 00:25:55.519
<v Speaker 8>you were significantly more likely to feel pro social emotions.

558
00:25:55.720 --> 00:25:58.640
<v Speaker 8>So what if like, let's just say the parent is

559
00:25:58.759 --> 00:26:01.680
<v Speaker 8>very easily find finds themselves in a state of awe

560
00:26:02.119 --> 00:26:05.559
<v Speaker 8>and that somehow begets this perspective for the kid because

561
00:26:05.559 --> 00:26:08.119
<v Speaker 8>they're modeling it to also just appreciate what.

562
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:09.440
<v Speaker 3>They have for around them.

563
00:26:10.119 --> 00:26:13.440
<v Speaker 8>That's really what because they they're also maybe that removes

564
00:26:13.480 --> 00:26:15.759
<v Speaker 8>a little bit of like the insecurity obstacles that you

565
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:18.480
<v Speaker 8>usually have to overcome to achieve stuff. Yes, and that

566
00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:20.759
<v Speaker 8>you just like you just have a more positive mindset

567
00:26:20.799 --> 00:26:22.359
<v Speaker 8>and it's more about a law action.

568
00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:24.440
<v Speaker 1>Birds, Yeah, feather, it's it's it's the same thing with

569
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:26.839
<v Speaker 1>the people you surround yourself, even as adults, Like if

570
00:26:26.839 --> 00:26:29.559
<v Speaker 1>you're surrounding yourself with people are like, oh it's beautiful today,

571
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Like look do you see those flowers? Those are incredible?

572
00:26:31.680 --> 00:26:33.880
<v Speaker 1>How bright they're the ones right outside the door. You know,

573
00:26:34.119 --> 00:26:36.880
<v Speaker 1>I suppose to someone who's like my life this day.

574
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:39.680
<v Speaker 8>My favorite study is the one that said my grandparents'

575
00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:42.440
<v Speaker 8>generation was happier than all of us because their bar

576
00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:43.559
<v Speaker 8>for happiness was so low.

577
00:26:43.640 --> 00:26:48.559
<v Speaker 3>Yes, they expect keep the bar low. Justin will continue.

578
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:49.720
<v Speaker 5>It's like the kids.

579
00:26:52.400 --> 00:26:55.880
<v Speaker 10>You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI

580
00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:57.000
<v Speaker 10>AM six forty.

581
00:27:00.359 --> 00:27:06.960
<v Speaker 12>Justine works joined us and we're talking about parenting issues,

582
00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:11.519
<v Speaker 12>and so new research talks about the importance of reading.

583
00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:14.400
<v Speaker 8>I have a feeling when I read this, I was

584
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:16.440
<v Speaker 8>gobspec like, I was like, what the hell?

585
00:27:16.880 --> 00:27:17.519
<v Speaker 3>And I have a feeling.

586
00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:19.880
<v Speaker 5>You guys are like, oh, no, that's important.

587
00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:24.680
<v Speaker 8>No, nothing, But fifty of us adults read below a

588
00:27:24.720 --> 00:27:25.599
<v Speaker 8>sixth grade level.

589
00:27:26.319 --> 00:27:31.079
<v Speaker 4>Not surprised, really surprised. You've been to Target, Yeah, but.

590
00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:40.400
<v Speaker 13>Watch your mouth about Target. I just dealing with people, Yeah, exactly.

591
00:27:40.960 --> 00:27:47.480
<v Speaker 13>And I also think that reading reading ability can regress.

592
00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:50.759
<v Speaker 13>I mean you get out of the practice, just like handwriting, right,

593
00:27:51.079 --> 00:27:54.400
<v Speaker 13>your handwriting now is nowhere what it was, nowhere near

594
00:27:54.480 --> 00:27:56.519
<v Speaker 13>what it was like probably when you were junior senior

595
00:27:56.559 --> 00:28:00.359
<v Speaker 13>in high school because you were constantly writing. I don't

596
00:28:00.440 --> 00:28:04.599
<v Speaker 13>write things down, I mean chicken scratch numbers here and there.

597
00:28:05.119 --> 00:28:07.559
<v Speaker 13>I don't write things down every day. I'll go days

598
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:09.720
<v Speaker 13>without using a pen or a pencil.

599
00:28:11.400 --> 00:28:13.319
<v Speaker 3>I've always had third grade level handwriting.

600
00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:18.599
<v Speaker 5>Unfortunately, Really write me something right, I like, well, you're.

601
00:28:18.559 --> 00:28:20.880
<v Speaker 3>Right with the wrong hand. Is that the problem? It

602
00:28:20.880 --> 00:28:21.640
<v Speaker 3>gets even worse.

603
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:24.640
<v Speaker 1>Wow, they didn't beat that out. Uh huh, you're my age.

604
00:28:24.920 --> 00:28:28.880
<v Speaker 1>There were no left handing. That's perfectly you do right

605
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:30.920
<v Speaker 1>like you're right handed, though, oh I do.

606
00:28:31.559 --> 00:28:33.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. I just always like people.

607
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:36.880
<v Speaker 8>When I signed my niece's like certificate because I like

608
00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:41.200
<v Speaker 8>a left hander, I officiated her wedding and like both

609
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:43.160
<v Speaker 8>her and her now husband were like, whoa dude?

610
00:28:43.200 --> 00:28:46.440
<v Speaker 3>Like when it was just writing my name, I didn't

611
00:28:46.480 --> 00:28:49.319
<v Speaker 3>realize you had palsy exactly. You should have been a doctor.

612
00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:50.880
<v Speaker 5>But look at how lame that is.

613
00:28:50.920 --> 00:28:54.160
<v Speaker 3>When I write with my left hand would be legible.

614
00:28:54.559 --> 00:28:55.240
<v Speaker 5>That's a joke.

615
00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:02.920
<v Speaker 8>I can't turn hers off for a second. Good for you,

616
00:29:02.920 --> 00:29:05.400
<v Speaker 8>you found my limit. Evidently, I didn't even know I

617
00:29:05.400 --> 00:29:08.640
<v Speaker 8>had one. The other part, so my kids, I've seen

618
00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:11.119
<v Speaker 8>them like read aloud. They mess up words constantly, which

619
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:14.799
<v Speaker 8>drives me up a wall. I was never like, I

620
00:29:14.799 --> 00:29:17.200
<v Speaker 8>imagine both of you enjoyed reading. I know Shannon does

621
00:29:17.279 --> 00:29:20.039
<v Speaker 8>a lot. I have never been a person who enjoyed reading.

622
00:29:20.039 --> 00:29:22.680
<v Speaker 8>I like listening to like business books, like audio books.

623
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:24.640
<v Speaker 3>I like that. I'm I will read a book if

624
00:29:24.680 --> 00:29:25.119
<v Speaker 3>I like it.

625
00:29:25.359 --> 00:29:27.480
<v Speaker 8>I read like Ready Player one and the Harry Potter

626
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:30.160
<v Speaker 8>book said there was stuff like that, but sixth grade

627
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:30.960
<v Speaker 8>level exactly.

628
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:34.240
<v Speaker 3>That's what I'm saying is and I've been I'm the

629
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:35.519
<v Speaker 3>guy who's shocked.

630
00:29:35.160 --> 00:29:37.079
<v Speaker 5>When you say your kids mix up words?

631
00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:37.559
<v Speaker 3>What do you mean?

632
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:42.160
<v Speaker 8>They say it like they'll say something like, uh, I

633
00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:44.480
<v Speaker 8>can't even give the example because it's such a poor grammar,

634
00:29:44.519 --> 00:29:46.559
<v Speaker 8>Like I just feel like I'm constantly.

635
00:29:46.119 --> 00:29:47.599
<v Speaker 3>Going it's us.

636
00:29:49.000 --> 00:29:52.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, it's magnification, like I would say mess up,

637
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:55.759
<v Speaker 1>could care less versus no, No, we're.

638
00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:56.640
<v Speaker 3>Not even at that high level.

639
00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:59.200
<v Speaker 8>And it's like blatantly like I don't think the words

640
00:29:59.240 --> 00:30:01.599
<v Speaker 8>you just put together, they're like I understood you on

641
00:30:01.640 --> 00:30:02.039
<v Speaker 8>this show.

642
00:30:02.119 --> 00:30:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I understood that every day people lose their freaking minds.

643
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:09.119
<v Speaker 3>No we're not there, then they should.

644
00:30:09.119 --> 00:30:11.400
<v Speaker 8>Definitely, we could desensitize these people by having them have

645
00:30:11.480 --> 00:30:14.200
<v Speaker 8>dinner with my family, okay, because it's me constantly going, no,

646
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:16.559
<v Speaker 8>it's this word, and my jack loves to drive me

647
00:30:16.640 --> 00:30:16.960
<v Speaker 8>a ball.

648
00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:19.200
<v Speaker 3>He goes same difference. I'm like, no, no, it's not

649
00:30:19.240 --> 00:30:22.119
<v Speaker 3>the same difference that you can't. If it was, then

650
00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:24.440
<v Speaker 3>I would understand. I go, I can't send you into

651
00:30:24.480 --> 00:30:27.039
<v Speaker 3>a job interview using words like this that is not

652
00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:30.079
<v Speaker 3>too screw it. Oh yes, I know. That's the one

653
00:30:30.119 --> 00:30:32.519
<v Speaker 3>time that I know I'm being the victim of it.

654
00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:35.039
<v Speaker 3>Still can't stop, it can't stop.

655
00:30:35.039 --> 00:30:38.960
<v Speaker 8>It's it's how he communicates, Like communication is very important.

656
00:30:39.400 --> 00:30:41.319
<v Speaker 8>The other part that shocked me about this is like

657
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:44.440
<v Speaker 8>how much it's directly correlated to like earnings. People will

658
00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:46.440
<v Speaker 8>read at a sixth grade level on average in US

659
00:30:46.480 --> 00:30:48.960
<v Speaker 8>make sixty three thousand dollars a year. If you're at

660
00:30:48.960 --> 00:30:50.599
<v Speaker 8>a fifth grade level, dips all the way down to

661
00:30:50.640 --> 00:30:54.799
<v Speaker 8>forty eight. And I was like, wow, like especially, I mean,

662
00:30:54.839 --> 00:30:56.359
<v Speaker 8>I guess today we're all on computers.

663
00:30:56.400 --> 00:30:59.880
<v Speaker 3>But just pick of books, I guess. But it's pick.

664
00:30:59.880 --> 00:31:03.319
<v Speaker 4>It's not just the book, it's the kind of book.

665
00:31:03.319 --> 00:31:05.519
<v Speaker 4>It's the style of book. It's the language of the book.

666
00:31:05.720 --> 00:31:11.119
<v Speaker 4>And I think of different writing styles. The most outlandish

667
00:31:11.200 --> 00:31:13.839
<v Speaker 4>writing style that I can think of that of a

668
00:31:13.880 --> 00:31:17.960
<v Speaker 4>book that I enjoyed was The Road by Cormick McCarthy

669
00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:22.400
<v Speaker 4>because there, I mean, he was missing punctuation in that book,

670
00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:25.880
<v Speaker 4>but it was so I mean, you got to know

671
00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:28.000
<v Speaker 4>the rules to break the rules. So clearly he knows

672
00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:30.640
<v Speaker 4>how to use punctuation, but he didn't in this book.

673
00:31:31.440 --> 00:31:34.119
<v Speaker 4>That to me, is a well above a sixth grade

674
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:37.240
<v Speaker 4>level book because of that kind of knowledge.

675
00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:39.880
<v Speaker 3>Not just the big words, not just.

676
00:31:39.920 --> 00:31:46.920
<v Speaker 4>The the technical aspects potentially of a book that you're reading,

677
00:31:47.319 --> 00:31:50.160
<v Speaker 4>but the way the language is used is probably the

678
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:54.839
<v Speaker 4>best indicator of the level of book. You don't get

679
00:31:54.839 --> 00:31:57.440
<v Speaker 4>that anywhere. I mean even you know, you could read

680
00:31:57.480 --> 00:32:00.799
<v Speaker 4>the New York Times online or in print, whatever you

681
00:32:00.799 --> 00:32:04.400
<v Speaker 4>want to do. It's not written. You know, you're always

682
00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:08.359
<v Speaker 4>taught in journalisms the newspaper writings. It's not written that way.

683
00:32:08.400 --> 00:32:12.079
<v Speaker 4>It's written to be consumed by the I wouldn't say

684
00:32:12.079 --> 00:32:15.680
<v Speaker 4>the lowest common denominator, but a pretty low common denominator.

685
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:19.640
<v Speaker 4>And there's no challenge after you get past sixth grade.

686
00:32:19.799 --> 00:32:22.559
<v Speaker 4>You read science books, biology or something like that in

687
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:25.160
<v Speaker 4>high school, but after that there's no more. There's no

688
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:28.240
<v Speaker 4>challenge unless you bring it upon yourself where you work

689
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:30.279
<v Speaker 4>in an industry where that's going to be a required reading.

690
00:32:30.440 --> 00:32:31.319
<v Speaker 3>It's just not out there.

691
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:33.519
<v Speaker 8>And I also always wonder, like Chicken or the egg, like,

692
00:32:33.599 --> 00:32:36.119
<v Speaker 8>are people who naturally inclined to read are just gonna

693
00:32:36.119 --> 00:32:38.880
<v Speaker 8>also they're just going to naturally want to improve, right

694
00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:41.960
<v Speaker 8>like Schmuck's like me, Like I like to improve in business.

695
00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:44.160
<v Speaker 8>Like that's interesting to me. But I very rarely will

696
00:32:44.200 --> 00:32:45.960
<v Speaker 8>read a piece of fiction or something like that. It's

697
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:48.160
<v Speaker 8>not my jam. I don't like it. I would much

698
00:32:48.240 --> 00:32:51.720
<v Speaker 8>rather watch the movie an somebody else figure out all

699
00:32:51.720 --> 00:32:52.599
<v Speaker 8>the visuals for it.

700
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

701
00:32:52.920 --> 00:32:54.559
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I paint the picture for me and I break

702
00:32:54.559 --> 00:32:56.359
<v Speaker 8>it down like what a flip book?

703
00:32:58.839 --> 00:33:02.839
<v Speaker 5>Very male. We will talk trenday.

704
