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: You need to get your ass to work. Whatever that
Speaker 2: was yesterday? That happened again?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, Sissy, Well, welcome back, Thank you again.
Speaker 2: A long day that.
Speaker 1: Was not I listened to a large chunk of the program,
Speaker 1: and I enjoyed.
Speaker 2: That you already had to go through a root canal.
Speaker 1: Well, I had to drive to it back from it.
Speaker 2: I do enjoy it.
Speaker 1: By the time I drove back, it was Mo Kelly's show.
Speaker 1: Because I basically live there now at the dentist or.
Speaker 2: I spent all day.
Speaker 1: When I was like checking out or whatever, They're like, oh,
Speaker 1: did you see so and so I'm like, honey.
Speaker 2: I saw everybody.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, well, hey, good news is that there's going
Speaker 3: to be a fun party on Sundays.
Speaker 2: I know, I am excited the game.
Speaker 3: Itself, like you've said, you know, and I don't think
Speaker 3: a lot of people unless you're a die hard Eagles fan,
Speaker 3: I don't even think. I mean, I know Chiefs fans
Speaker 3: want to go for the three, but I don't think it's.
Speaker 1: Funny because I've said, like, oh, I don't care. I
Speaker 1: don't care. I heard you talking to Amy yesterday on
Speaker 1: this show about it, and you're talking about how there's
Speaker 1: different people, different vibes, different lanes of like some people
Speaker 1: want to watch the whole game. Some people are like,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe casually look at it. Some people want
Speaker 1: to socialize. And everyone has different roles at a Super
Speaker 1: Bowl party. Sure that they that they assume. And I
Speaker 1: was thinking, and you and you put me in the
Speaker 1: camp of wanting to watch the game, and for the
Speaker 1: first time, I was like, I do want to watch
Speaker 1: this game, like I do want to watch I do
Speaker 1: miss football, like I have missed it a couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: And I do want to watch this game. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to have to watch every down, but I am
Speaker 1: interested to see what happens.
Speaker 3: Okay, my wife had asked. Keanu's husband also had some
Speaker 3: dental work done. Should we just put a blender on
Speaker 3: the counter for people with dental.
Speaker 1: Be able to eat anything?
Speaker 2: Crunchy chips?
Speaker 1: I can't eat chips.
Speaker 2: I can't. You could eat chips. I'll bet you you
Speaker 2: could find Well.
Speaker 1: They're very worried about this particular temporary crown so really, yeah,
Speaker 1: so I really need to stick to the guidelines.
Speaker 2: You could have cheetahs, so I can.
Speaker 1: Bring over jello oatmeal.
Speaker 2: I have some.
Speaker 3: I have some yogurt and some cottage cheese in awful
Speaker 3: in the fridge.
Speaker 1: If you kickstart a weight loss plan in the next
Speaker 1: week or so, apple sauce, flew it.
Speaker 2: Apple sauce is delicious. I do like an apple sauce.
Speaker 2: That's great.
Speaker 3: I am most concerned on Sunday about how Peter's going
Speaker 3: to handle this.
Speaker 1: I think Peter's can be fine. Compared to your to Fergus.
Speaker 1: Fergus was it was touch.
Speaker 2: And go there.
Speaker 3: Well, he was the kind of dog that would sit
Speaker 3: in the corner and stare at you like, are you
Speaker 3: really going to drink red wine on the couch? That
Speaker 3: that was what would be going through his or he
Speaker 3: would say, you wore those shoes to a party in public.
Speaker 1: Don't people usually take off their shoes at your home.
Speaker 3: If they want. I don't care. And there's a dog.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's not like you're going to be more
Speaker 3: dirty than the dog, you think, And I don't think
Speaker 3: I have a dirty house you're inviting.
Speaker 2: I'm just but there.
Speaker 3: Are people I think you and your husband kick off
Speaker 3: your shoes right away.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's not.
Speaker 1: And I'm at home, but.
Speaker 2: I get in my pjs. You're like, you don't mind.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go take a nap. I help myself to
Speaker 2: the thirty second snooze. Do not go into that bathroom.
Speaker 2: I've done that a couple. You're like, Hey, the fan
Speaker 2: doesn't work. Okay, wait, I don't sound like that. The
Speaker 2: food doesn't work.
Speaker 3: Anyway. Yeah, this will be the first time he's had
Speaker 3: been around that many people at once, and I think
Speaker 3: after the first I.
Speaker 1: Memorry about your dog because he's not Fergus was not
Speaker 1: a social being, so I felt like that was a
Speaker 1: high stress situation for him.
Speaker 2: But he handled. I mean, he knew where to go,
Speaker 2: he knew the pockets of the room where it would be.
Speaker 1: Peter seems more up for anything.
Speaker 2: He's gonna be in people's faces. Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 3: He's gonna be so tired, and I love it. That's
Speaker 3: the best tired dog is a happy dog.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't want to overstress. That's how I.
Speaker 1: Feel about humans. You got to wear yourself out, so
Speaker 1: you're tired.
Speaker 2: At the end of the day.
Speaker 3: Conway yesterday was talking about coming to the to our house.
Speaker 2: And he's not really coming, is he.
Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna have to change him as of yesterday.
Speaker 2: As of yesterday he said he was, and he was.
Speaker 3: He said on the air that we asked him to
Speaker 3: bring pringles, which is not what happened. He offered to
Speaker 3: bring pringles, and I'm not going to be like, no,
Speaker 3: don't bring pringles. And he said something about where we live,
Speaker 3: they don't sell pringles.
Speaker 1: That's funny. Who's he going to bring? Is he going
Speaker 1: to bring a like Doug Steckler or Mark Thompson. He
Speaker 1: always brings a friend. He might bring a couple, bring
Speaker 1: some guys from the track Jimmy two Tones made.
Speaker 2: This is Tommy Thumb over here. All right.
Speaker 3: The whole Doge question, the whole thing about what Elon
Speaker 3: Musk is doing.
Speaker 2: We talked about it yesterday.
Speaker 3: This team of young, very very bright men computer coders
Speaker 3: and programmers who are going through and looking at what's
Speaker 3: going on with these different government agencies.
Speaker 1: I saw a screen grab from Fox News. Is it
Speaker 1: true that one of their nicknames is big Balls? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's pretty cool.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And there's a couple.
Speaker 3: I mean, these are teenage early adolescent young men who
Speaker 3: are now being trolled for stupid stuff that they've set.
Speaker 2: On the internet.
Speaker 3: I meant, it ain't Kanye, but it's you know, stupid stuff.
Speaker 1: And is it just like the trans woman from Amelia.
Speaker 2: Stuff like that.
Speaker 1: I saw an alert today on the Telly right here
Speaker 1: that she has suspended her oscar campaign.
Speaker 3: There, so I think what it is is she's not
Speaker 3: actively going out and right, yeah, and.
Speaker 2: Because she'll get crucified. Yeah, more there is that.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah. Also a lot of super Bowl stuff coming up.
Speaker 3: This is a fun store. This is a fun topic.
Speaker 3: Is what smell represents La?
Speaker 1: I saw this and I thought, what the hell are
Speaker 1: you doing? La? Times? La Times is like what smell
Speaker 1: reminds you of La? And the first thing was like
Speaker 1: with steria, I'm like bowl s, but the real world,
Speaker 1: I'm like, are you kidding me? So I thought it
Speaker 1: would be fun for everybody to come up, well what
Speaker 1: does La? What do you smell? And you're like, La,
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we could have some real fun
Speaker 1: with this. Leave us a talkback message on the iHeart app.
Speaker 1: Just hit that button and send it to us. We'll
Speaker 1: come back.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about what's going on Elon Musk's latest adventures.
Speaker 5: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 5: AM six forty. Now.
Speaker 1: Blake Lively is not invited to the super Bowl Suite
Speaker 1: because apparently one of the lead texts was Blake Lively
Speaker 1: saying to Justin Baldoni that she's Kalisi and that Ryan
Speaker 1: Reynolds and Taylor Swift are her dragons. And Taylor heard
Speaker 1: about that and was like, I'm not your dragon. These
Speaker 1: people are thirty seven years old.
Speaker 2: PS.
Speaker 3: It's time for a chance for you to win one
Speaker 3: thousand dollars. Here's how you picking it up.
Speaker 5: Now your chance to win one thousand dollars. Just enter
Speaker 5: this nationwide keyword on our website pay.
Speaker 2: That's pay.
Speaker 5: Pay Enter it now at KFIAM six forty dot com,
Speaker 5: slash cash Howard by Sweet James Accident Attorneys if you're
Speaker 5: hurting an accident. Winning is everything called the winning Attorneys
Speaker 5: at Sweet James one eight hundred nine million. That's one
Speaker 5: eight hundred nine million or sweet James dot com.
Speaker 2: Again, the keyword pay goes on the website.
Speaker 3: Emails how we notify winners and we'll do it again
Speaker 3: an hour from now.
Speaker 1: It's funny now that I say that, But they're thirty
Speaker 1: seven years old. I think of thirty seven now as
Speaker 1: still an adult, right, that's.
Speaker 2: Adult, an adult for one.
Speaker 1: But I look at them when I think of them,
Speaker 1: I think them of young women, not thirty seven. But
Speaker 1: then vice versa. When I think of myself as twenty
Speaker 1: two or whatever, I think of, thirty seven is old. Well,
Speaker 1: thirty seven, my god, gross, very odd.
Speaker 3: Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency is now pushing to
Speaker 3: develop what they call a custom generative AI chatbot for
Speaker 3: the US.
Speaker 2: General Services Administration. They're calling a GSA I.
Speaker 3: One of the goals of the initiative is to boost
Speaker 3: the day to day productivity of about twelve thousand employees
Speaker 3: under the General Services Administration.
Speaker 1: That means cut people who are superfluous, superfluous, right just
Speaker 1: to get rid of the fat. It's using AI to
Speaker 1: cut jobs, and you can mask that with whatever fun
Speaker 1: corporate speak you want. Analyzing swaths of contract and procurement
Speaker 1: data is one way they put it. It's basically using
Speaker 1: robots to cut people's jobs, and that is not going
Speaker 1: to go overwhell and they're going to do that. Department
Speaker 1: after department after department, the whole us AID mess, and
Speaker 1: now the General Services Administration. This is just going to
Speaker 1: be what happens with every single arm of the government.
Speaker 2: And this is exactly the way businesses do.
Speaker 3: What this what Elon musks want wants government to do.
Speaker 3: And he's been given free reign by the President obviously
Speaker 3: to get into it and do this sort of stuff
Speaker 3: to get after this. And we've said for a long
Speaker 3: time that government should be run more like a business,
Speaker 3: more with the customer in mind, the customer being taxpayers
Speaker 3: around the world. I don't know if this is the
Speaker 3: best way to do it, but it is a way
Speaker 3: to do it.
Speaker 2: It sounds like.
Speaker 3: Obviously, things like writing emails, generating images, executive orders, and
Speaker 3: other stuff like this. The way that this is going
Speaker 3: to be taken is that Elon Musk is imposing his
Speaker 3: will on all of this.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's different than that, it's deeper than that.
Speaker 3: But we're still caught up in the early days of
Speaker 3: this what do you want to call it, throwing everything
Speaker 3: into a blender and seeing what comes out. He's he
Speaker 3: is walking in with a sledgehammer and breaking things and
Speaker 3: seeing what is left.
Speaker 1: It was pump the brake's approach when it came to
Speaker 1: the Biden administration. Chatbots like chat Gptgemini have been adopted
Speaker 1: across corporate America for things like writing emails, generating images,
Speaker 1: and things like that, but the guidance under the past
Speaker 1: administration was generally instructing government staff to be cautious about
Speaker 1: AI and using it. However, Trump is balls to the wall,
Speaker 1: full steam ahead, pedal to the metal, ordering people to
Speaker 1: strip away any barriers to the United States exerting global
Speaker 1: AI dominance. So that is why Musk has run with
Speaker 1: this green light, bringing aboard more AI tools. This is
Speaker 1: according to Wired other media that this could be the
Speaker 1: most chaotic upheaval of the federal bureaucracy in the modern
Speaker 1: computer era.
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's a negative thing that yet.
Speaker 3: I think it's a little bit of both. I think
Speaker 3: it can be both. I mean, you point your point
Speaker 3: the other day, I thought was pretty well thought out.
Speaker 3: There's thousands of government workers whose jobs are still necessary,
Speaker 3: but they are probably working fearfully. They don't know what's coming.
Speaker 3: They don't know if their job is on the chopping
Speaker 3: block or not. We already saw some forty thousand plus
Speaker 3: people take that buyout, which has now been at least
Speaker 3: tabled until Monday last night, but of course was supposed
Speaker 3: to be the deadline for people to decide if they're
Speaker 3: going to take an eight month pay, eight month pay
Speaker 3: and benefits payout and leave the federal workforce.
Speaker 1: I don't hate the idea of AI being used to
Speaker 1: come in and cut the fat. I also think though
Speaker 1: it should be used in conjunction with input from people
Speaker 1: who are inside these departments. People who are the rank
Speaker 1: and file workers who know where the fat is, whether
Speaker 1: it's middle management or otherwise. They know what is redundant
Speaker 1: or unnecessary, and I think that their knowledge, especially people
Speaker 1: who have been there a few decades, is valuable.
Speaker 3: Well, at least some of that is happening. The new
Speaker 3: Treasury Secretary, Scott Besson, says that some of the now
Speaker 3: DOGE workers looking at what's going on in the Treasury
Speaker 3: are Treasury Department employees, so at least they have some
Speaker 3: experience with what exactly is going on. That's not all
Speaker 3: of them, but there is at least somebody from within
Speaker 3: the building who can help point to what's good and
Speaker 3: what's bad.
Speaker 1: I had this epiphany this morning when I'm watching and
Speaker 1: reading about Kamala Harris and the Palisades. She's going to
Speaker 1: run for governor and she's going to win. Because all
Speaker 1: the California Democrats they've been quiet lately, haven't they. They've
Speaker 1: been in the corner licking their wounds because they're still
Speaker 1: so upset about Donald Trump being elected. Like that was
Speaker 1: a big surprise. I mean, I'm not saying that you
Speaker 1: shouldn't be upset. I be what you want to be,
Speaker 1: live your life. However, I see her rising as like
Speaker 1: the queen of the anti Trump movement. Like, well, the
Speaker 1: the nation, those awful people, they chose Trump. But here
Speaker 1: in California, we're going to make the right choice, and
Speaker 1: we're going to ascend our queen to her throne, like
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like she's going to be
Speaker 1: the poster child of the anti Trump movement because she
Speaker 1: was not picked, because Trump was picked over her in California,
Speaker 1: the otherworldly, super righteous California of like we know better
Speaker 1: than the entire country, and we are going to make.
Speaker 2: Her our queen. That's exactly what's going to happen.
Speaker 3: We have a fire email as well. I'm sorry, fire
Speaker 3: mail I fire actual piece of mail that we'll read
Speaker 3: to you.
Speaker 1: Is it like on fire our typewriter?
Speaker 2: It's about fire.
Speaker 5: Yes.
Speaker 3: The best time of the day starts at nine am.
Speaker 2: Going to Gary Elast said show, we should start the
Speaker 2: show with that.
Speaker 5: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 5: AM six forty.
Speaker 2: I might be a little lame on this. What is
Speaker 2: the whole thing behind saying super Bowl? Why are we
Speaker 2: covering up? Beats me? Super Bowl? Isn't it stupid?
Speaker 6: Big game?
Speaker 2: Stupid?
Speaker 3: It's because it's a protected I work a whole bunch
Speaker 3: and I'm not caught up here.
Speaker 2: You go, The NFL owns the name, the trademark.
Speaker 1: The copyright, so we can't make money off of it.
Speaker 1: Only the NFL because the NFL. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you knew this, but the NFL is really hurting for money.
Speaker 1: In fact, there's a go fundb page for the NFL
Speaker 1: that you can donate to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you need it. Listen, they make money.
Speaker 3: It's it's a term that they trademarked a long time ago,
Speaker 3: which just prevents us from making money on it.
Speaker 2: That's why you notice.
Speaker 3: Let's just say if there was a commercial where they
Speaker 3: wanted to talk about the game, they have to say
Speaker 3: the game or the Big Game, or the game on
Speaker 3: Sunday or the big football game.
Speaker 2: You can't use the word super Bowl for us to make.
Speaker 1: Money, stupid because we're not making money off of it. Also,
Speaker 1: is there any that makes you hate the Super Bowl
Speaker 1: more than Patrick Mahomes other than calling it the Big
Speaker 1: Game seven hundred times?
Speaker 2: Did you know?
Speaker 3: Speaking of that, did you know that if the Chiefs
Speaker 3: do three peat, one of the big winners is pat Riley.
Speaker 3: Pat Riley trademarked the term three peat many many many
Speaker 3: years ago, really when he was in charge of the
Speaker 3: Lakers and they were three peating.
Speaker 2: What a great story, pat Riley.
Speaker 3: And I guess it may have been the idea of
Speaker 3: either Byron Scott or Wes Matthews.
Speaker 2: They said this was eighty late eighties.
Speaker 3: He has reached an agreement Riley and Company Incorporated that
Speaker 3: owns the trademark.
Speaker 2: They've come to an agreement with the NFL.
Speaker 3: But if the Chiefs win, and they end up being
Speaker 3: the first NFL team to three peat, then they can
Speaker 3: market Chiefs three peat, use the term on all of
Speaker 3: the merchandise and everything.
Speaker 2: And pat Riley is going to be swimming in it.
Speaker 1: I would love to hear the details of the financial.
Speaker 2: On that that.
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean it dovetails nicely with the whole
Speaker 3: super Bowl is a trademark name because three pete. Who
Speaker 3: would have thought, I mean, well, I would have thought
Speaker 3: to make money off of that in the late eighties.
Speaker 1: Well, I thought about the forty nine Ers when they
Speaker 1: went back to back and there was three peat was
Speaker 1: all the talk.
Speaker 3: The follow But that would have been nineties, right, I
Speaker 3: mean that right, and even the same era it would
Speaker 3: have been pat Riley would have owned it already.
Speaker 2: Then that's what the Lakers were doing.
Speaker 1: They were winning, winning, winning, I mean there were I
Speaker 1: mean why not the Steelers? Why not? You know, I
Speaker 1: mean there's a number of teams that could win it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that were I mean Charles, I haven't done a deep
Speaker 1: dive on the commercials for the Super Bowl. And I
Speaker 1: don't even know if kids these if people these days
Speaker 1: wouldn't recognize Charles Haley if they saw him. But like,
Speaker 1: he's the only one right now that has the three
Speaker 1: peete in terms of three Super Bowl r you know,
Speaker 1: the green.
Speaker 2: One from the forty nine Ers pre consecutive Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think that Shandon should be given the responsibility of
Speaker 4: clearing out the fat KFI and give her a bonus
Speaker 4: of ten percent of all salaries that she cuts.
Speaker 2: Yeah, how would you like that job?
Speaker 5: Wow?
Speaker 2: There's there.
Speaker 1: I was going to make a really bad joke in
Speaker 1: terms of the lack of fat here at KFI. But
Speaker 1: we're down to a Karen Carpenter operation. Uh, somebody already
Speaker 1: came in and cleared out not just the fat, but
Speaker 1: the protein and the bones. It was just basically drums
Speaker 1: of people.
Speaker 3: Left running on power aid and amphetamines. Right now, Yes,
Speaker 3: all right, the Kamala Harris story. When we come back.
Speaker 1: Do you smell cigarettes? I said, maybe it's just the
Speaker 1: burning in my mouth?
Speaker 2: Is it still burning?
Speaker 1: Maybe it's just the connorization that I smelled yesterday.
Speaker 2: Did they hit a bone and something?
Speaker 3: I smelled cigarettesmell cigarettes. We'll talk about Kamala Harris and
Speaker 3: her tour of the Palisade yesterday.
Speaker 5: You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
Speaker 5: AM six forty.
Speaker 2: What is the telltale smell of LA?
Speaker 3: I think if you're not from LA, and you assume
Speaker 3: that LA is all of southern California, I might even
Speaker 3: suggest it's the inside of pirates of the Caribbean.
Speaker 2: Oh that that sweat stick a.
Speaker 3: Little bit on a summer day where it's sweat and
Speaker 3: everybody's sweat is now cooled off because the air conditioning
Speaker 3: mixed with the chlorine chemically smell of the water. There's
Speaker 3: something in there. There's just there's something in there.
Speaker 1: The writer in La Times, Maxwell william says, you know,
Speaker 1: smell may be the most ignored of our five senses.
Speaker 1: I disagree. I find it to be completely not ignored.
Speaker 2: At all.
Speaker 3: It's funny because the smell does bring back a lot
Speaker 3: of memories that you strong.
Speaker 2: It's very strong.
Speaker 1: Smell brings back the way that they put it, they
Speaker 1: said the Aroma baking bread mate might bring you back
Speaker 1: to your grandma's kitchen. Absolutely, smells bring you back to childhood.
Speaker 1: They bring you back to moments in time. Like a
Speaker 1: song can bring you back to a moment in time.
Speaker 1: Smell does the same thing. And then it says. The
Speaker 1: Times asked readers to share sense they consider synonymous with
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, and their responses painted a vivid olfactory portrait
Speaker 1: of the city. Okay, the first one, magnificent magnolias and
Speaker 1: wistful hysteria.
Speaker 2: Give me a break.
Speaker 3: There's there is a good You can leave us a
Speaker 3: message and tell us what you think is your favorite smell.
Speaker 2: We'll get to Kamala Harris here in just a second, enhanted.
Speaker 3: I love you guys.
Speaker 6: When I think of la I think of that smell
Speaker 6: of like old urine, Like when you go into an
Speaker 6: elevator and you know that someone has, you know, peede
Speaker 6: in the corner, and it just smells like that old urine.
Speaker 2: Kind of the same smell as event thanks bye.
Speaker 1: You smell that in almost any I think San Francisco,
Speaker 1: I think of urine because my mom took me forever
Speaker 1: to the Ballet downtown and it always smelled of urine,
Speaker 1: and she used to call it urine Town. We're here
Speaker 1: in urine Town, and that was the eighties. Now it's
Speaker 1: like a Now it's not urine. It's like the you know,
Speaker 1: it's the bottom of a Johnny bucket, or urine was
Speaker 1: the nice thing. Urine was a light. Now it's you know,
Speaker 1: feces and foam.
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris coming up.
Speaker 1: Through the the greats boom. The feces gets phamy down
Speaker 1: and then it comes up through the grates. People go
Speaker 1: to the bathroom in the streets. Now it's not just Pete,
Speaker 1: it's number two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 3: No, you're not. You don't have to convince me. Kamala
Speaker 3: Harris the day of the inauguration, the day that she
Speaker 3: was she ended her job as vice president, came out
Speaker 3: to Los Angeles. She got a home in Brentwood. She
Speaker 3: went out and checked out, thanked some of the firefighters
Speaker 3: in the Altadena area. Yesterday, she toured the fire damage
Speaker 3: in the Palisades, met with local officials.
Speaker 2: It was her first visit to the Palisades.
Speaker 1: She's going to be the governor. I'll put money on
Speaker 1: it right now.
Speaker 3: So she says, you can smell the smoke that was here,
Speaker 3: thank you. You can feel the toxicity, frankly, of the environment.
Speaker 3: You can feel the energy of all the folks. We
Speaker 3: are still here on.
Speaker 2: The ground, oh, Clorazon. So here's okay.
Speaker 3: The one I wouldn't say the only, but a characteristic
Speaker 3: of what we saw with Gavin Newsom a year ago
Speaker 3: at this time was he was saying no, no, no,
Speaker 3: I'm not running for president. I don't want to run
Speaker 3: for president. I would never do that. Joe Biden is
Speaker 3: my guy, et cetera. He doth protest too much. He
Speaker 3: desperately wanted Democratic power officials to come to him and say,
Speaker 3: please save this ticket. You're the only one with the
Speaker 3: youth and the energy and the ideas to go up
Speaker 3: against Donald Trump. He desperately wanted that, despite the fact
Speaker 3: he said he didn't want that.
Speaker 2: This is Kamala Harris. I think playing that same game.
Speaker 2: Oh I don't.
Speaker 3: I don't want to run for governor. I just want
Speaker 3: to be able to serve my community. I just want
Speaker 3: to be able to live in Brentwood and go about being,
Speaker 3: you know, the best neighbor that I can be, or
Speaker 3: however she wants to do it, whatever terms she wants
Speaker 3: to to say. You've got I mean, you could count
Speaker 3: on one hand. You got Tony Thurman, you got Elani Cunilakus,
Speaker 3: you got I think Betty Ye has thrown her head
Speaker 3: into the ring.
Speaker 2: You got these people who have said that they're going
Speaker 2: to be running.
Speaker 3: Oh uh an, Tony Viragosa all going to run for
Speaker 3: governor in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 2: If Kamala Harris walks into that room.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they fold up their bags and they go home exactly.
Speaker 1: And California can't wait to do it. They can't wait
Speaker 1: to show Trump. Yeah, the rest of the country may
Speaker 1: have gone your way, but here in California, we're choosing
Speaker 1: the right candidate.
Speaker 2: And don't forget.
Speaker 3: And this, I think is a statistic that it's hard
Speaker 3: to kind of wrap your head around.
Speaker 2: More Republicans voted.
Speaker 3: More people voted for Trump in California than in any
Speaker 3: other state.
Speaker 2: Now, granted, obviously it's a huge state.
Speaker 3: We have forty million people almost, so yes, you're but
Speaker 3: just sheer number is going to have more Republicans. But
Speaker 3: the number of people who voted for Trump in California
Speaker 3: is pretty staggering.
Speaker 1: I just want to say, not that anyone asked or
Speaker 1: anyone's listening, but it's kind of like going to your
Speaker 1: mother or father with a problem of a bully at school. Right,
Speaker 1: let's call the bully Dave. I don't want to go
Speaker 1: to school today. Dave's goin to make fun of me again.
Speaker 1: Dave is going to be insufferable to deal with. I
Speaker 1: don't worried about Dave, to which your parents should say,
Speaker 1: don't worry about Dave. Live your life. How can you
Speaker 1: make your life better? How can you have fun with
Speaker 1: your friends today. Don't worry about day. Don't let Dave
Speaker 1: take up any room in your space. Let Dave live
Speaker 1: his life, you live yours, Right, That's what you would
Speaker 1: say to your kid, right, That's what I want to
Speaker 1: say to Democrats in California. Stop fighting that guy. Stop
Speaker 1: electing people just to spite that guy. What can you
Speaker 1: do to further your cause right now? Well, what can
Speaker 1: you do to pick the next candidate who is the future,
Speaker 1: who maybe the future, who can take on jd Vance
Speaker 1: in four years?
Speaker 2: Choose wisely?
Speaker 1: Don't pick somebody just because it flies in the face
Speaker 1: of the Trump presidency, because that's not helping your matter.
Speaker 1: You're getting stuck in that same juvenile thinking that got
Speaker 1: you into the hole that you're in right now in California.
Speaker 1: It's just not the way to move forward. To act
Speaker 1: out of spite.
Speaker 3: Well, and you've said before, I mean that that's not
Speaker 3: the fight that we in California need you to fight
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 2: We need you to make sure that we're safe.
Speaker 3: We need you to make sure that the insurance companies
Speaker 3: don't continue to screw us. We want to make sure
Speaker 3: that we are protected from a natural disasters or that
Speaker 3: we're just at the very least.
Speaker 2: Ready when one takes place.
Speaker 3: Yeah, safety, road, roads, fire, fire, police, water.
Speaker 2: That was your other one was the water. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: those are the things.
Speaker 3: Stop stop it stop with that guy's a boogeyman and
Speaker 3: he's going to take us down the wrong car. Hey,
Speaker 3: get me to work on time. Make sure that my
Speaker 3: house doesn't burn down when the earthquake hits. Let's be
Speaker 3: ready to help each other out and just do that.
Speaker 5: Do that?
Speaker 1: Well, who's going to be worried about what bathroom you're
Speaker 1: going into or if a man is a woman, I'm
Speaker 1: going to be aware, right, Yes, yeah, I get it.
Speaker 2: I like eucalyptus and safe.
Speaker 1: I love eucalyptus in sage. I don't smell it enough
