Hey, it's Dean Sharp here to keep
0:02
you from spending too much trying to
0:04
revitalize your indoor space. Are you sure
0:07
it's the furniture or is there something
0:09
missing? Something you haven't considered until right
0:11
now. An indoor tree. No, not a
0:13
house plant that you're gonna kill. An
0:16
indoor tree handcrafted just for you to
0:18
the perfect size and shape with a
0:20
real trunk and stunning silk leaves and
0:23
blossoms. A true piece of art that
0:25
magically brings the outside in and at
0:27
a fraction of the cost of something
0:30
like new furniture. Only one place
0:32
in the country creates custom silk
0:34
trees and flower arrangements on site
0:37
daily. And they're right here in
0:39
LA. Aldic Home.
0:41
The secret weapon of the studios and
0:43
designers like me. But the secret's out
0:45
so you owe it to yourself to
0:48
check out Aldic Home. Find
0:50
them on Sepulveda in Van Nuys
0:52
or visit them on the web
0:54
at aldichome.com. That's
0:57
a-l-d-i-k home.com. This
1:01
is Gary and Shannon and you're listening
1:03
to KFI AM640, the Gary and Shannon
1:05
show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
1:07
They have forwarded me the email that
1:10
all of these people got from Gavin
1:12
Newsom today. The subject line
1:14
is heading to the White
1:16
House. Now,
1:19
we know that he's going to be
1:21
meeting with the president
1:24
later tonight. But that subject
1:26
line, wow, heading
1:28
to the White House. The
1:32
New York Times, just before the show
1:34
started, posted an article today that
1:37
suggested that President Biden has told a
1:39
key ally. We don't know who it
1:41
is. That he knows he may
1:43
not be able to salvage the candidacy if he cannot
1:45
convince the public in the next few days that he's
1:48
up for the job. And of
1:50
course after that disastrous debate performance from
1:52
last week, understands that his next few
1:54
appearances heading into the holiday weekend must
1:56
go well. Particularly, that he's
1:59
not going to be able to do that.
2:01
that interview that is scheduled with ABC's George
2:03
Stephanopoulos for Friday. Now, ABC has
2:05
told us they are not doing it live.
2:07
I mean, they're not going to broadcast it
2:09
live and that we will
2:12
see portions of it later Friday
2:14
on ABC's World News Tonight, on
2:17
Saturday on Good Morning America, on
2:19
Sunday on ABC's This Week, and
2:22
then probably the whole thing on Sunday
2:25
and then some highlights again on Monday.
2:30
I think they're dumb for holding this thing back. I
2:32
think it's irresponsible that they're holding this thing back.
2:35
I think we as the people of America should
2:37
know as soon as possible what we're
2:39
dealing with. Show us the
2:41
raw footage. Show us President Biden answering
2:43
questions about his own mental fitness.
2:45
It has to be done. We
2:47
deserve to not be teased into,
2:49
oh, here's another bit coming tomorrow
2:52
and tune in on the next
2:54
day. I've just made my
2:56
way through the rest of this Gavin Newsom email. So
2:59
heading to the White House, listen to the verbiage
3:01
in this. It's telling, ready? Folks,
3:03
he starts it off with. I
3:05
hate that. Yes, but it's very, I am
3:08
appealing to all of America. Folks,
3:11
as you read this, I'm on my way to Washington
3:13
DC to meet and stand with the president at
3:15
the White House later tonight to
3:18
meet and stand with. Doesn't
3:20
that kind of insinuate that all Biden can do is
3:23
just stand there? As
3:25
opposed to having a hearty, healthy conversation about
3:27
the future of the country. It's very, very
3:30
cleverly worded. He goes on
3:32
to say, when that's over, I'll be hitting
3:34
the road to campaign for him and Democrats
3:36
running up and down the ballot in several
3:38
swing states. One of the
3:40
places I'll be going is Pennsylvania, where I'll be
3:42
with Senator Bob Casey as he runs for reelection.
3:46
I understand that folks are anxious right now, he writes,
3:48
and a lot of people have reached out to ask
3:50
what they can do. The truth
3:52
is we all have our roles to play
3:54
if Democrats are going to win this fall.
3:58
That's the only way it's going to happen. If
4:01
we are simply witnesses, we'll lose. When
4:04
act, Democrats can win. And
4:06
then he asks for money for
4:09
that, for the senator in Pennsylvania, the
4:11
all important state of Pennsylvania. Right. Well,
4:14
that is interesting. That's right. Um,
4:19
the president does have an event
4:21
today. Well, the president is going to have
4:23
lunch with Kamala Harris today. They
4:26
say it's their first one-on-one interaction since last
4:28
week's debate. And then later he's going
4:30
to be awarding the Medal of Honor to two Union Civil
4:32
War soldiers who took part in
4:35
one of America's first special ops. He's
4:38
going to hold that meeting with Democratic governors
4:40
because of the concerns over his debate performance.
4:44
They're all going to be in person pretty much at the White
4:46
House. Some will be joining remotely. Interesting.
4:52
Andy Bashir outlined what he hopes to hear during
4:54
the meeting. He says that the governors want
4:56
a direct and candid conversation with the
4:58
president. I think we also want to talk
5:00
about strategy. When governors get out
5:02
there, we put our own credibility and brands on
5:05
a line. Yeah. And
5:07
we talked before about this being
5:09
impactful down the ballot. You
5:11
know, if, if Biden is still on the
5:14
ballot in November, that
5:16
has an impact on, on those
5:18
governors races, congressional
5:20
and Senate races and everything. Fashion
5:23
Island yesterday, about three 30 p.m. It
5:26
was near Barnes and Noble at the
5:28
Tony shopping mall. A woman
5:31
from New Zealand was walking with her
5:33
husband, 68 year old woman, walking with her husband when
5:37
two suspects approached them. They
5:39
tried to rob the couple. A struggle
5:41
ensues. And then they begin
5:44
to take off in a white Toyota Camry. One
5:46
of the, one of the guys ran the vehicle, also
5:50
drove away and actually hit this woman. The
5:53
male suspect that, that ran then got back into
5:55
the car, at which point some
5:57
rounds were fired from a gun. The vehicle fled
5:59
back. the scene according to initial
6:01
reports the woman was shot but they figured out
6:04
that that was not true they later
6:06
confirmed that the car impacting
6:09
her is what killed her nobody was
6:11
hit by the gunshots eventually so they
6:13
said at one point one of the
6:15
suspects had dragged the woman on the
6:17
street during the robbery the
6:19
husband apparently was not injured at least
6:21
not physically and then
6:23
they got into a chase one
6:25
of the guys bailed out was arrested
6:28
in Cyprus two others arrested in Southgate
6:31
one woman who worked just a few stores down from where
6:34
the shooting occurred so she wasn't quite sure what was
6:36
happening and a lady went in
6:38
with her daughter apparently was screaming there's
6:40
a shooter so the
6:42
other stores in that immediate area
6:44
did a lockdown basically a lot
6:46
of customers in there and just
6:49
kind of sat and waited the
6:51
the Newport Beach mayor lashed
6:54
out at the these guys during a news
6:56
conference said that their creeps said this was
6:58
a stunning staggering attack went on to say
7:00
this is a safe community and we're mourning
7:02
the loss of someone frankly to hell with
7:04
these guys these are thugs every
7:06
community is now dealing with this we have to
7:08
do better as a society we cannot tolerate this
7:10
yeah they do have
7:13
great security at Fashion Island but
7:16
how I mean again I
7:18
said this earlier that the thing
7:22
that we can take some solace in is
7:24
that there's an actual
7:27
DA in Orange County and he
7:29
will probably but it's still LA
7:31
LA's problem is spilling over absolutely
7:33
but but there's a better chance
7:35
that they're gonna get can tried
7:38
correctly in in Orange
7:40
County than here in LA County
7:43
so we are getting information about
7:45
that all-staff meeting at the White
7:47
House now about what
7:49
the messaging was okay we got that we
7:51
got Gavin Newsom we got all kinds of
7:53
stuff going on on this on this July
7:55
3rd hey you guys love the
7:57
so happy birthday Shannon hope you enjoy your
7:59
birthday and have a great 14th of July.
8:02
You as well Gary, keep it up. Thank
8:04
you. Google, Google. Happy birthday Shannon. This is
8:06
Amber in Frasier Park, wishing you
8:08
the best birthday ever. You and I
8:10
have too much in common, no filter. And
8:13
we like to drink a lot. Love
8:16
you guys. Best show ever. Bye.
8:19
Google, Google. I like to drink
8:21
a lot. You're listening to Gary
8:24
and Shannon on demand from KFI
8:26
AM640. I think
8:28
you could be the entertainment. Yeah.
8:33
I'm sure they're looking for a 51
8:35
year old dude. Did you hear about
8:38
Gavin Newsom and Marshawn Lynch? This is more
8:40
proof Gavin Newsom listens to the program. He's
8:43
teaming up with Marshawn Lynch and
8:45
agent Doug Hendrickson to start a
8:47
podcast. It's gonna be called Politikin
8:51
on iHeart.
8:53
Can we say anything about
8:56
that? Cause it's the company. Yes. We
8:58
can say, yeah. You think that the powers of be
9:00
at iHeart media are listening to us. We can say
9:02
whatever we want. What
9:07
is Marshawn Lynch doing? Is this CTE? Like
9:09
what's going on? Why would you
9:11
want to sit in a room or even on a
9:13
zoom call with Gavin Newsom and give him any sort
9:15
of, It's
9:19
gotta be money. It's gotta be money. It's
9:21
gotta be. It's gotta be money. I mean,
9:23
there's no other. You're right.
9:25
Is it for the creative
9:27
process of two men from very different worlds coming
9:30
together to discuss culture and politics and life and-
9:32
It's gonna be awkward how Gavin Newsom is
9:35
gonna try to make it sound like
9:37
their friends and that he has anything
9:39
in common with Marshawn Lynch. Speaking
9:42
of awkward, I think it's
9:44
gonna be a lot of fun. I
9:47
think it's gonna be a lot of
9:49
fun. Speaking of awkward, did you see
9:51
Kamala Harris' video that she made with
9:53
Taraji P. Henson? No. It
9:56
was the most cringe-worthy fake
9:59
FaceTime call. that the two of them are
10:01
doing, where Taraji P.
10:03
Henson says, oh,
10:05
Madam Vice President Harris, what
10:09
are we gonna do about, you know, going
10:11
forward with all of our woes
10:13
and inflation and the Republicans trying to
10:15
take our rights away from us? This
10:18
was Kamala Harris trying to
10:20
sound very, very cool. As
10:24
they say, they not like us. They not
10:26
like us. It
10:28
was the most awkward, I'm surprised you have
10:30
not seen this yet. And it
10:33
was poorly produced, it was poorly
10:35
written. It was, they couldn't pull
10:38
it off as they say. As they say, they
10:40
not like us. White
10:43
House Chief of Staff, Jeff
10:45
Zeintz urged people during this all
10:47
staff meeting today to tune
10:49
out the noise and
10:51
focus on the task of governing. Senior
10:54
aides are scrambling to contain the
10:56
fallout from that debate. And
10:59
basically he just said, do your job.
11:01
Don't worry about the mess. Don't worry
11:03
about the fact that Emperor has no
11:06
clothes. Well, I'm
11:08
good, I'm happy with that. I'm fine with that.
11:10
I'm fine with the White House saying we have
11:12
a job to do. Let's continue to do our
11:14
jobs. When the campaign
11:17
gets involved, if the
11:19
campaign says, hey, we're not
11:21
talking about it, we're not doing anything about it, he's
11:23
still our guy and this and that. That's the thing
11:25
I have a problem with. I want the country to
11:28
continue running. That would be nice. That
11:30
would be nice to have somebody in charge. But
11:34
that's not good. We
11:36
went from that first Democrat out
11:38
of Texas yesterday who came
11:41
out and publicly said we need to make a
11:43
change. Void Doggett. To now what, five? And then
11:45
the whispers that'll be 25? I
11:47
know there's Doggett, Maine's, Jared
11:49
Golden, Marie Gluson, Camp Perez
11:51
of Washington. So we have three at least
11:54
that have named, that have come forward. But
11:56
the defection is in addition to at least
11:59
two dozen. Democrat House members
12:01
who are in those moderate
12:04
swing districts. They're in swing districts and
12:06
they happen to be moderates. There is
12:08
a suggestion, at least a rumor that's
12:10
going around DC, that they're going to
12:12
come out as soon as today and
12:14
ask Biden to step aside. Also
12:17
in DC today, several governors are
12:19
going to be meeting with President
12:22
Biden, whether in person or via Zoom
12:24
call. Of course Gavin Newsom has traveled
12:26
to DC to go to this meeting
12:28
with President Biden, said
12:31
a spokesperson for the governor, he will head
12:34
to the White House to attend the governor's
12:36
meeting and stand with the president, which was
12:38
echoed of course in the email that went
12:41
out. I was thinking about the timing of the
12:43
first debate. We never had a debate this early.
12:46
And I'm wondering, and at the time when these
12:48
were scheduled, we kind of talked about, well, it's
12:50
early enough where if one of them has a
12:52
disaster, they can rebound. Now I'm
12:54
thinking the powers that be knew
12:56
what they were dealing with with Biden and they
12:58
made it this early so that everyone could see,
13:01
nobody could deny it any longer and
13:03
they could make a change early enough
13:05
to go into the conventions. Now
13:08
I'm thinking that was the thought process. Well
13:10
there's also, but I mean,
13:12
it's early enough for the convention
13:15
itself, but we're dealing with 50
13:17
different states and territories added to
13:19
that. And they've all
13:21
got different rules about how we
13:23
have about the timelines of when
13:25
your candidate has, when your nominee
13:27
has to be nominated so
13:30
that they can appear on the ballot.
13:32
I mean, that's one of the reasons
13:34
why they were talking about doing an
13:36
unofficial, sorry, an official nomination before the
13:38
convention because there was a problem with
13:40
Biden's name being on the ballot in
13:42
Ohio. And the later
13:44
version of the convention being mid August was
13:47
gonna cause a problem with that so that
13:49
they would officially nominate him and then all
13:51
of the convention stuff would be ceremonial. Now
13:55
if we're talking about what's gonna happen,
13:57
Andrew Yang, for example, has said that
13:59
he does fully expect there to
14:01
be an open convention coming in
14:03
August. I think it's going to
14:06
be an open convention. I think
14:08
you're going to see folks like
14:10
Andy Bashir of Kentucky, Joshua Pirro
14:12
of Pennsylvania, Gretchen Whitmer of
14:14
Michigan all contending. The
14:16
fact is a majority of voters were
14:18
concerned about Joe before the debate. Now
14:20
it's a clear majority. And I don't
14:22
know. I don't know. You got a
14:24
hundred and what, 29 days. And every
14:28
single day that you get, you
14:30
know, closer to November 5th, it's just, it
14:32
ratchets up. I mean, the
14:35
pressure grows exponentially for them to do
14:37
something. We've been in unprecedented
14:39
times now for eight years.
14:43
I'm ready for some precedents. I'm ready
14:45
for some boring, little bit
14:48
of lame. You know, where's a good, you know, Senator
14:51
Tim Kaine when you need him just to bore
14:54
the snot out of you. It's fascinating
14:56
though to think about what could happen.
14:58
I mean, it is fun to talk
15:00
about and think about and
15:02
the fail fiction is great. It's fun to
15:04
talk about, but when you look at the
15:07
reality of it, it's a
15:09
little terrifying. It's a little unsettling. You don't
15:11
laugh. You're going to cry. Drive
15:14
your car off a cliff. Speaking of Gavin
15:16
Newsom, we told you yesterday that one of
15:19
the things that he and some democratic lawmakers
15:21
are trying to do was put an anti
15:23
crime measure on the ballot, an
15:26
anti crime measure on the ballot that
15:28
would go up against the real anti
15:30
crime measure on the ballot. The one
15:32
that is supported by law enforcement agencies
15:34
around the state. What they
15:36
finally did, what they finally did was they
15:38
pulled away from their plan to put the
15:41
anti crime measure on the ballot because they
15:44
responded by saying
15:46
they would put a watered down
15:48
version of a prop 47 repeal,
15:50
which among other things would
15:53
cause confusion. When voters are confused,
15:55
they vote no on everything because
15:57
nobody has the legwork or the
15:59
time. the brain space to do the
16:01
homework to tell between the two. That's why
16:03
you see a bunch of millions
16:05
and millions of dollars being poured into this.
16:08
He wanted to add
16:11
something that would address concerns about theft,
16:13
about fentanyl, but it would not be
16:15
as punitive as the measure that was
16:17
going to be put on there by
16:19
law enforcement and by prosecutors around the
16:21
state. That alone should give you an
16:23
idea of where he stands on this
16:25
issue. Unfortunately he's pulled
16:27
back. Thankfully they're not going to put a
16:29
competing measure on the ballot. He cannot have any
16:32
blight on him right now as he
16:34
said it heads to the White
16:37
House. He cannot have any
16:39
controversy. But I
16:41
mean he's got controversy left and right.
16:43
How many national stories appear every single
16:45
day about the condition of
16:48
our biggest cities in the
16:50
state? Yeah. But he's spinning it. He
16:52
spins it the other way. He continues to say
16:54
that all we need is more money. We've
16:57
spent billions and his own state auditors
16:59
say that that money goes nowhere. It
17:01
doesn't end up doing anything. If
17:04
you could take all that money and actually
17:06
treat all those addictions, wouldn't that be lovely?
17:08
Just widespread. And
17:11
you need more? Addictions are? You
17:13
need more than 15 or 16
17:16
billion dollars? No. Stop the train.
17:18
Yeah. Stop the train. Tonight
17:20

Sports. Did you see the show? Hey Otani home
17:37
run. How many does he have? Corrine off of
17:39
that kid's forehead? Oh no,
17:41
I did not see. Little kids surrounded
17:43
by adults at Dodger Stadium. Everybody's got
17:46
their hands up to catch the ball.
17:48
Not one person catches the ball and
17:50
it just careens off the kids for now. Is
17:52
he okay? I don't know. I
17:55
don't know. Kids are kids
17:57
are resilient though. Their foreheads are.

particularly resilient. Yes.
18:03
I mean, we all ran into walls at one point, didn't
18:05
we? Ran into walls.
18:07
I ran into my brother's face
18:09
one time with my forehead, front
18:12
teeth, left a big mark. We'll
18:17
talk about the heat. And I want to
18:19
clear up what I said earlier about the
18:21
hottest temperature recorded, because we've got
18:23
a talkback that said I was completely wrong. Oh, boy. So
18:26
we're both right, both wrong kind of thing.
18:28
We'll explain. You're listening to
18:30
Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
18:33
AM 640. So
18:35
now there are reports that campaign officials
18:38
are reaching out to mega donors and
18:40
telling them it's only a matter of
18:42
time before Biden bows out. Does
18:45
he make it through the weekend? I
18:47
mean, like, you know what I
18:49
mean? I don't like die. But yeah, I
18:52
that is a good question. We talked about
18:54
it on Monday, thinking there
18:56
was some thought to it was a bad performance
18:59
on Thursday night. The story gets the legs on
19:01
Friday, but the weekend tends to cut the legs
19:03
out from under a news story like that. It's
19:05
just the end of the news cycle. It's
19:07
different now than it was because of social
19:09
media, because the ability everybody's got to replay
19:12
and reshare all of these different images and
19:14
photos and videos and things like that. So
19:17
we get back in on Monday and it's continued.
19:19
And it's grown since are on stilts. The
19:22
officials at the campaign are
19:24
apparently telling donors that
19:26
it's gone from singular support for
19:28
Biden to Democrats have to
19:30
retain the White House. And
19:32
that was the same feeling of the Gavin
19:35
Newsom email to donors this morning as well.
19:38
One of the stories that came out
19:40
was the All Staff memo that went
19:42
out to the campaign different from the
19:44
White House All Staff letter. This
19:46
one went to the campaign that included some
19:48
internal polling that said was still a tight
19:51
race with Donald Trump. But they were trying
19:53
to get out of a get
19:55
out ahead of a new poll from
19:57
the New York Times, CNN College, which they said
19:59
was going to to show a slightly larger swing
20:01
in the race. The
20:03
memo, again, this is to the campaign, said
20:05
just last week, New York Times acknowledged they
20:07
were often in a polling outsider. So the
20:09
New York Times, just a short couple of
20:12
minutes ago, as a matter of fact, posted
20:14
their poll, and it
20:16
says Trump's lead in the
20:18
race has widened concerns that
20:21
Biden is too old to govern effectively, rose
20:23
to new heights among Democrats and independents. So
20:25
as of right now, again, the New York
20:27
Times just out with this poll, right
20:30
now, Trump leads Biden 49% to
20:33
43% among
20:36
voters nationally. That's not an individual swing states,
20:38
this is a national poll that does
20:40
change things a little bit, but
20:43
still, it's the largest lead that
20:45
Trump has recorded in
20:47
a New York Times-Ciena poll since
20:50
2015. And
20:53
that's likely voters, right? Not just
20:56
registered voters. When
20:58
you pull out a little bit and make it just registered
21:00
voters, he leads by 8%, 49 to 41. So-
21:06
That's incredible. Boy, this, and I just feel
21:08
like this is one of those that's gonna
21:10
develop over the course of, even today. I
21:13
don't know if ABC is gonna be
21:15
able to piecemeal out that interview
21:17
by the time this storm that
21:22
has taken the White House right now-
21:24
Is he still there on Friday? Does
21:26
he make it the weekend? I don't know. Obviously
21:29
gonna be warm today. It's already 103 in Death Valley. It's
21:33
expected to be very, very warm over the course
21:36
of the next couple of days. And that is
21:38
why I think this nude man in Santa Monica
21:40
should be given a little bit of consideration.
21:43
Because he's developing, he's turning all of the
21:45
West Side into his own cooling center. Well,
21:47
it's hot out there. He appears to be-
21:50
Well, it's hot. He appears to be elderly.
21:52
He's walking around completely nude at all hours
21:54
of the day and night. And
21:56
who isn't walking around nude? It's
21:59
very hot. Do
22:03
you, I don't think that you're that person. That
22:05
walks around my neighborhood nude? Yeah. No,
22:08
I'm not. There's bears in my neighborhood.
22:11
Well, that's one way to, nevermind.
22:15
It's not on your birthday. No, I don't want to. What were
22:18
you going to say? That's one way to keep the bears out.
22:21
That's funny. You put you out there.
22:23
That's excellent. Thank you. Oh, collagen.
22:28
So I mentioned earlier that there is
22:30
an expectation that Death Valley could break
22:32
the world heat record this weekend. Death
22:34
Valley National Park expected to see some
22:36
of the highest temperatures in the nation
22:39
and obviously in the state because we're the ones
22:41
who are undergoing the heat wave right now. Those
22:44
who follow weather trivia will be watching temperatures
22:47
in the park as the gauge
22:49
rises above 130 degrees. Now
22:52
I said that's the highest recorded temperature
22:54
in Death Valley and somebody corrected me
22:56
kind of. Gary, just FYI, the heat
22:58
record from the US is 134 at
23:00
Death Valley back in the early 1900s
23:05
or whatever. Anyway, you were close. Well,
23:08
specifically Furnace Creek, July 10th, 1913.
23:12
That's the all time high recorded temperature,
23:14
but the
23:16
world meteorological organization recognizes
23:19
that 134. But
23:22
they have a lot of questions about Oscar
23:24
Denton, who was the US weather bureau observer
23:27
who recorded that temperature because they said he
23:29
liked to get into his cups and was
23:31
pretty inconsistent with his record keeping. Then why
23:33
would he be the record keeper if you
23:35
couldn't rely on him? Because it was 1913.
23:39
I don't care. So
23:42
the National Weather Service recognizes
23:45
the highest temperature ever reliably recorded
23:47
on Earth, which is 130 degrees
23:49
in Death Valley. Furthermore,
23:52
how hard is it to look
23:55
at a temperature and write it down? You
23:57
can be in your cups and record the
23:59
temperature. Well, yeah, I don't
24:01
know. I don't know what kind
24:03
of equipment he was working with back then. I mean,
24:05
was he working with just a big dial? Was he
24:08
working with something? Obviously, they weren't working with digital thermometers
24:10
like they are now. So the
24:12
forecast for Death Valley, by the way, on Sunday
24:14
is a high of 127. And
24:20
they're saying that obviously that could change over the
24:23
next couple of days, and they
24:25
could reach into that 130. Now,
24:28
Daniel Swain, a climate scientist who
24:30
talks about weather forecasts,
24:34
for UCLA and for his YouTube channel, said 130 might
24:36
be a bit of a stretch, but
24:39
there's always at least a couple of
24:41
degrees in uncertainty with specific predictions, and
24:43
said, I really don't have any special
24:45
insights into the exact value. The practical
24:47
implications of 127 versus 130 are about the same. Yeah.
24:53
It's damn effing hot, although he didn't say
24:55
damn and effing, with a
24:57
few degrees of hottest, reliably measured global
24:59
temperatures either way. So it's
25:02
going to be very, very hot. They tell people don't
25:04
walk after 10 a.m. Don't
25:07
literally don't walk after 10 a.m. because
25:09
it's going to be that hot. Wow.
25:12
We do have fire that we're watching.
25:14
The latest fire that's burning out that's
25:16
causing some consternation is up near Oroville.
25:19
The Thompson fire there, we'll see temperatures
25:21
forecast to reach up to about 109
25:23
degrees today. And
25:26
they are expected to go up to about 114 or 15 by Friday and
25:28
Saturday up in that part of the state. So
25:34
wind gusts in that area have also been to 30
25:36
miles an hour. The fire is just
25:39
over 3,000 acres. They
25:41
said there's a few hundred structures that are
25:43
threatened right now and 0% containment. So
25:46
one of the biggest factors in a
25:48
situation like that with the temperatures over
25:50
100 degrees is simply the
25:53
condition of the firefighters themselves. You
25:56
know, they're already dressed
25:59
in those. full turnouts and protective
26:01
equipment and they can only stand
26:04
that for so long before they get to lose all
26:06
of their water. I just found
26:09
a deep dive on Oscar Denton, but
26:12
that's probably not interesting to anybody. Gary
26:14
and Shannon. Was
26:16
he a gin guy or sort of a bath
26:18
tug gin? He was making it himself out in
26:20
the desert. Sometimes I get into
26:23
the deep holes and the Google Google. We've
26:26
got a missing- Google Google. We
26:28
got a missing wife in
26:30
Arizona. It looks like you'll
26:32
believe who killed her. You
26:36
will believe. You will believe. I'll
26:38
give you a half a guess. Who do you think it
26:40
was? I think it was her husband. You're
26:43
listening to Gary and Shannon on
26:45
demand from KFI AM640. A
26:48
little holiday of our own. Hi Gary and Shannon.
26:50
Hello there. I'm going to say happy birthday Shannon. Finally
26:53
hit that half century mark, huh? So
26:56
kicking and going strong, looking great.
26:58
Happy birthday. Hi guys. First
27:00
of all, happy birthday Shannon. You're
27:03
a lovely, you're a charming young woman.
27:05
I should go back from lovely. Anyway, I was
27:07
just thinking. I think
27:10
somebody should tell Jill Biden to be
27:12
careful and to check Gavin
27:14
Newsom's pockets when he comes in. Make
27:17
sure he doesn't have a measuring
27:19
tape in his suit
27:22
pocket. Why? Well, if
27:24
he's in that Oval Office alone, he'll be measuring
27:26
for drapes. That's so true. Take care and love
27:28
you guys. I thought she was going to say
27:30
make sure he doesn't have cocaine in his pocket.
27:36
Measuring for the drapes. Okay,
27:39
so the big story today, obviously,
27:41
is the consternation in DC and
27:44
the Democratic Party specifically about what
27:47
do you do with a problem named Joe? I
27:49
love that. In this case, see that's from the
27:51
sound of music. Yeah, that was good. The
27:54
crumbling support is, well,
27:57
I just. was
28:00
sidetracked. Karmin Jean-Pierre is at the podium at
28:02
the White House. She's going to
28:04
be bombarded with questions. There
28:06
is an expectation that we see some
28:09
House members outside of the three that
28:11
we know about some House members come
28:13
forward and suggest that Joe
28:16
Biden drop out. I do have some
28:18
breaking news. President
28:20
Biden and Vice President Harris have
28:22
made a surprise appearance on a
28:25
DNC call reiterating to
28:27
staffers that they are in this fight
28:29
for reelection together. The
28:32
people said it was a pep talk. The people who
28:35
talked to the AP said it was a
28:37
pep talk, stressing the stakes of the election
28:39
and returning to Biden's previous post debate comments
28:41
that when he gets knocked down, he gets
28:44
back up and still plans to win the
28:46
election. This
28:50
all comes on the at the same
28:52
time that New York Times came out with a poll
28:54
about 20 minutes ago. They just
28:56
published it that showed that Trump's lead
28:59
has widened after the debate.
29:02
Trump leads Biden 49 to 43
29:04
among likely voters nationally. That's a
29:06
three point swing from a week
29:08
ago. And when you do it
29:10
among registered voters, the lead actually
29:13
grows to eight points. They
29:15
said doubts about the president's age
29:17
and acuity have been widespread. A
29:19
majority of every demographic,
29:22
a majority of every demographic, geographic
29:24
and ideological group in the poll,
29:27
black voters included and those who said they would
29:29
still be voting for him believe
29:31
that he is too old
29:33
to be effective as president.
29:36
And that's now that's not thinking about what it's
29:38
going to happen four years from now. That's right
29:40
now. Corinne Jean-Pierre really knocks it out of the
29:43
park with her makeup. I
29:45
mean, that eyeshadow is expertly done. She's
29:47
got people, right? I assume I mean,
29:50
there's people to do makeup for your
29:53
wife. Does great makeup. One
29:56
of my girlfriends, Jessica, does great
29:58
eyeshadow. Kendra, everyone who's evolved. their
30:00
eyeshadow games so much thanks to
30:02
all the tutorials and things. I
30:05
haven't watched any of them. I don't know how
30:07
to do that and I don't care to learn. Is
30:10
that why you were using a
30:12
Sharpie earlier for your eyeliner? I
30:15
would suggest against it, but that's just me.
30:17
But I really appreciate the beauty of the
30:20
evolution of the the eyeshadow skills. There's
30:23
a woman in Arizona who is
30:25
missing, Kelly Putachowski, 45 years
30:28
old. Now,
30:32
they believe that she's dead. They believe
30:34
they're looking for her body now up
30:37
in the Flagstaff area and police
30:39
say interviews with witnesses and family
30:41
members have contributed to evidence and
30:44
that is why they went and arrested Daniel
30:47
Putachowski, the husband, as the
30:50
suspect in her death. He
30:52
reported her missing. Blood
30:55
was found at the house. Neighbors saw
30:57
the couple fight before she disappeared. One
31:00
neighbor reportedly saw Kelly lying on the
31:02
ground in the backyard motionless and
31:05
he was on top of her with his hands on
31:07
her shoulder area. Or neck,
31:09
depending on how you look at it.
31:12
I mean, the neck and the shoulder are pretty
31:14
proximal. The police said
31:17
that they tracked Kelly's
31:19
phone to Schultz Creek Trail in
31:22
the Coconino National Forest, just north
31:24
of Flagstaff with a time stamp
31:26
of about 1020 Sunday.
31:29
Daniel was spotted in the area a little more
31:31
than an hour later. Now, her phone indicated that
31:33
it was at the home they shared
31:36
just before or just afternoon, but
31:38
her vehicle was at the Campbell
31:40
Mesa trayhead, also in
31:42
that forest north of the city at about 130.
31:45
And that's when Daniel was spotted there at that
31:47
time. He said that she
31:50
was going to the lake for a run in the
31:52
swim. And that earlier
31:54
in the day, they rode bikes together. He reported her
31:56
missing just after 730. While police were at
32:00
the home, they saw, oh, I don't know, fresh blood.
32:03
Outside the garage, blood on the
32:05
patio, a bloody
32:07
footprint, Daniel didn't clean up too well. Well, it's
32:10
funny because where he was, or sorry,
32:12
where her motionless body was earlier in
32:14
the day, a neighbor saw
32:16
him spraying with a garden hose
32:19
where she had been laying. So maybe
32:21
he tried to clean up some of whatever
32:23
happened. When the police
32:26
confronted him that this
32:28
is a disappearance, disappearance is suspicious, you lied
32:30
to us, he did not confirm or deny
32:32
any information, he just said he wanted a
32:34
lawyer. He also referred to her in the
32:36
past tense, saying that Kelly was a beautiful
32:38
woman. That's not a great way to go
32:40
about doing it. Doesn't sound like he carried
32:43
out the perfect crime, does it? Well,
32:45
you know. You gotta clean up, you
32:48
gotta get your language correct.
32:52
Also don't throw her clothes
32:54
in the garbage can. Also
32:56
that. That's where they're going
32:58
to look. All
33:00
right, we will. Oh,
33:04
this is. Oh, Biden has posted
33:06
on X. I
33:08
am running. I am the leader of
33:10
the Democratic Party. No one is pushing me out.
33:15
Did Jill even get credit for writing
33:17
that tweet for him? Or did we
33:20
supposed to believe that he went to Twitter and did that by
33:22
himself? That's absolutely
33:25
Jill Biden. All right, we
33:27
got Swamp Watch a lot going on today in
33:29
Washington, D.C. We'll have to cram it in. Oh
33:32
my goodness. We'll have to just push it in
33:34
there until it pops. Whoa. Okay,
33:38
we'll do that. Maybe. Come
33:40
back to Gary and Shannon. You've been listening
