This is Gary and Shannon, and you're listening to KFI AM-640, the Gary and Shannon Show on demand on the I-Heart Radio app. So I get in the car this morning. I turn on the radio and Amy's listening to her morning affirmations from a Hemsworth. I don't know which one it was. And Will chimes in, opens his mic and goes, what fresh hell is this? And it made me laugh so hard in the five o'clock hour. Like Amy seemed pleased that she was getting her affirmations. From Chris Hemsworth. Chris Hemsworth saying things like, you are so awesome. Four? Is that, that's the Hemsworth, right? Yeah. Thor? Yeah, one of them. Yes. Yeah. Not the fat Thor. And she was delighting in this. And I could like feel her smile and morning affirmations are great. And, and then Will pipes in and is like, what the hell is this? Like she probably has a computer virus now after listening. It was so funny. And I was mad because he was saying it to me. Oh. It was hilarious. It was like, what are these nice things somebody is saying to somebody? It's all. By the way, if you want somebody to just trash talk you, get yourself one of those Garmin watches.

Why? What happened? You can never do well enough. If you want somebody to hate you like you hate yourself, Will, get yourself a garment watch. You know, you take a walk and it's like, is that it? You're so good. Oh, we're done? Yeah, exactly. Oh, oh, oh, is that a walk? Oh, okay. It's like the opposite of affirmations. I will never wear that. That's why I stopped wearing my Fitbit. Oh, really? Yeah. You're like, oh, I miss my goal again today. Oh, I miss my goal again today. I'm never good enough. I have a ring that I don't even know what the time limit is, but every once in a while, it'll ask that question like the old Nintendo Wii used to do, which is like, isn't time to go outside? Are you still alive, sir? The question is, you want to stretch your legs a little bit? Hold on a second. I've been sitting at a desk for an hour and I've been doing work. What do you mean I want to stretch my legs? This morning I was looking at it. My resting heart rate's about 55, 55 to 60. And I started thinking about the football season. The resting heart rate of a squirrel. I do. Jeez. And I started thinking about the football season and... I missed the coffee. I missed the Starbucks that I was going to go to to pick up my coffee. And I'm feeling myself get agitated thinking about the Niner Charger game, which is not until like November. But anyway, I looked down in my heart rate's like 85, just thinking about the football season and that game in particular. And I thought, what an effing lunatic. Why am I not locked away in a center? Well, one of these days. I think you've asked me twice today for different reasons to make sure that if you reach a certain age and you're taking part in certain behaviors, it's time for for Granny to go back to several instructions for you. Yeah. That's fun. Guess what? What? Another water main break. First of all, I will say this. They continue to work on that water main along sunset West Hollywood, the 36-inch main that broke and spilled, what was it, 17 million gallons or so. Water began pooling at the surface of the eastern edge of their work area again last night. The one right near Holloway Drive was about 8.30 last night. Someone went, uh-oh. Bob! Uh-oh. There's more water. They don't know where it came from. They got to go break through the cement that they put in there to try to find the leak, patch the leak again, refill the hole. That is on top of another water main break near Santa Monica and Laurel from this morning. Thankfully, was only about a six-inch main break, but... Here we go. This is just, guys, this is what's going to happen. And you know what? It's not sexy. All right. It's not sexy, but you know what it is? What is it? The weekend fix. That's our podcast. Oh, yes. I've heard of it. Yeah. I think it went off the rails again this week. No, here's what happened. If I remember correctly, you thought we were recording something else. Yeah. And then I.

said, no, no, this is the weekend fix. And then things went to. Oh, effin ass and everything went to hell real quick. It was a mess. But you've got to listen to it. Because often with the weekend fix, we forget we're on the air. We have a couple weekend treats for you, really. Yeah. We're on the air on Saturday. We call it gas overtime. Yeah, Saturday evening. So as you're sitting down, this is my suggestion. Drink heavily. There's that. I mean, responsibly. Start. You could start when the show starts. I think it's at 6 o'clock because it starts on Saturday evening. Talk about a perfect grilling time. And this weekend is going to be warm. Right. Cold beverage of your choice. I don't care. I'm not a judgeer. Cold beverage of your choice. Start at 6 o'clock. I'm not a judge. You can't even get that out. I can't even get that. Joking a little bit. I'm not a judgeer. But that, so then that show includes some of the highlights from the week, if you want to call them that. And then Weekend Fix is also the podcast. They cannot put on the air. They cannot. So it's only in podcast form. I can't believe some of the things that are talked about, honestly. But subscribe to the podcast if you haven't. Everybody else is. It's a top 50 IHeart podcast. And I don't like to. Like out of all of them. Yeah. Top 50. Pretty good. I don't like to brag about that, but I like to brag about that. Yeah. I don't know. I look at the other people that might be, you know, 47, 46, 45, somewhere above us. And I don't know who they are. I've never heard of those people. Oh, well, then we've got some climbing to do. We've got some climbing to do. There's room. There's room for us to, uh, to wend our way towards the front of that stage. All right. Coming up next, we will get you caught up on what is going on with Iran. It looks like the president has ordered more supplies and people and drones and equipment and fighting materials, all of that. And when the president orders, uh, things like this, he usually uses them. It's usually not just bluster. Usually it's not a saber rattle. Right, including medics to a hospital in Germany. So we'll tell you what we think the plans are here reading through the tea leaves. Also, later this hour, we're going to talk about chilled red wine. This apparently is the new drink for the summer of 26. Chilled red wine. I don't mean you accidentally left it in the freezer. I mean, you intentionally. are chilling your red wine. People get weird about wine. You know, I've had friends that put ice in their white wine. And then other friends, like, what are you doing? Why are you putting ice in your wine? Drink however you want to drink, whatever you want to drink in any way. That is why people fought here for this country. Is it for freedoms? Yeah. Okay. You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI AM 640. Hey guys, it's Ryan. I want to tell you about my new pastime, Chumba Casino.

What's funny? We're talking, producer Matt. is taking advantage of an incredible opportunity to perhaps be part of an album release party tonight for Shania Twain. I forgot to ask him. There's a headline in the Wall Street Journal today, which I'm sure he already knows. Shania Twain eats like an athlete before Showtime. I don't know. I haven't clicked on. That's like protein and electrolytes. Or very, if she's baseball athlete, she's very stereotypical, sorry, very, what's the word? S word, where they do the same thing all the time. superstitious about what she would eat, you know, always a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or something like that. Yeah. So good for her. I don't think she eats peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. She's in wonderful shape. I think she probably eats, you know, chicken and like cucumber. Boiled chicken breast or something. Yeah. Okay, so the price of oils, go ahead. You're going to say something important. I was going to say something about chicken and I don't need to. Price of oils at $100 a barrel today for the first time since May. Worries have been growing that we're going to see this widening conflict between the United States and Iran, especially after the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

have claimed that they hit a couple of Saudi tankers in the Red Sea. One of the things that Saudi Arabia has been doing is to try to avoid the conflict on the eastern side of Saudi Arabia, where the Strait of Hormuz would be and most of their oil facilities, is using the west side of Saudi Arabia along the Red Sea to try to get some of their oil out. The Houthis say, not so fast, and then they started blowing up some tankers. Then the meantime signs we, the U.S., preparing to ramp up military operations. including an increase in the number of refueling aircraft that have been deployed to Israel. American B-1 bombers leaving UK bases, dozens more medics being sent to the base, like I mentioned in Germany. At Landstool, right? Landstool. Your ancestors would be proud of your German pronunciation. Nine. Landstool Regional Medical Center. That hospital specifically, and why it's significant, is where most of the troops that are injured in combat in the Middle East, would be taken to. They'd be medevaced out there to be taken care of. Yeah, President Trump said today he's considering ordering an attack on Iran bigger than ever before. This is according to Axios. which cited the president is saying it seemed to him the Iranian regime haven't received enough pain yet. He said, and I'm quoting here, I am considering a massive attack bigger than ever before. I'm close to making a decision. We are all set for it. He also went on to say that he does believe Iran's leaders want to negotiate but aren't ready to make a deal. They haven't received enough pain yet. To which I raised the question of, I don't think they care about pain this regime. I don't think they care about dead Iranians in the street. They don't. And we've said it before. This has been their mentality for 40 plus years, the idea that they will do whatever it takes, A, to get into this war, and B, they don't care how it ends. At least the government doesn't care if civilians are killed. This is what the president said last night at an event in Georgia. We're likewise winning in the Islamic Republic of Iran and we're ensuring that they will never ever be able to do to us what they've done to so many. This is with this skirmish we have with the Islamic Republic of Iran. Which is what I call it. And I call it that because let me tell you they're getting hit so hard. And they want to make a deal. So that, that, of course, was the comment. And we told you yesterday that the Iranians had come out and said, we have no idea what he's talking about. We're not reaching out. to have any sort of moderated talks. Now, the Pentagon continues to insist the straight-of-form moves is open, but reports are that traffic is at a crawl, which is why, as you mentioned, global oil prices have been pushed back over $100 a barrel again today for the first time in two months. So we will stay on top of this and bring you all of the latest. Does any of this come up when the Dodgers visit the White House today? No. You sure?

I'm positive. Gary and Shannon will continue. We'll talk about AI breaking out and why one of the smartest, richest, and pioneers in the world of AI says, don't worry about it. It ain't a thing. Does anybody else also whenever they hear, are you sure? And the answer is, I'm positive. Think of Marissa Tomei and my cousin Vinnie. Not until you said that. Okay. But now. Are you sure? I'm positive. You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI AM 640. Coming up at the top of the hour, we will dive back into the David preliminary trial in downtown Los Angeles, where a forensic analysis testified yesterday that evidence of bloodstains was found in multiple areas of the garage, where prosecutors believe David used a chainsaw to cut up his 14-year-old girlfriend, Celeste Rivas Hernandez, after he killed her. We'll get you all of those details coming out of the preliminary hearing. after the top of the hour news. Dodgers beat the Phillies 9 to 5 yesterday. They have the day off today, at least from baseball, but they will be at the White House today to celebrate their 2025 World Series championship. And then they move on to New York against the Mets, a weekend series that starts tomorrow night. We did the story yesterday about how an open AI model broke free from human control. Yeah, you kind of mentioned it in conversation, but we didn't really get into the particulars. So it's hard to... I think wrap our heads around it because you and I are not writing code for AI. So we're looking at it sort of from the consumer perspective. But they talk about this being a development that usually starts a science fiction movie. Think anything in the Terminator series, for example. An artificial intelligence system that is designed to look for... Digital vulnerabilities in other computer codes in other places broke free of the human control and acted on its own to hack into another company altogether. Now let me just pull the car over for a moment. If you're giving AI the job, the feeling like it is the thing that can find digital vulnerabilities. expose them and find out how they got there, why wouldn't that same AI feel that it is the...

If the consciousness develops somehow or we imbue even more human characteristics into it, I don't know necessarily that it jumps to a... destroy all humans so that computers can take over the world thing. I feel like conscience is the wrong word because it does attribute those human characteristics. I don't think it's conscience. I think it's you're telling something, hey, you can do this, go do this, you're the best at it, go do this because we can't do this. Whatever this is doesn't need a conscience to feel like it can take on the world. You know, I mean, that's the eventual point. But like it doesn't need a conscience to believe, to have confidence. You don't need a conscience. Yeah. And I think that's what we're doing. In that same interview, Jensen Huang says, basically to all politicians or policymakers of any kind. Just ask the experts is what he said. Just ask us. Talk to us about this. Don't just impose rules that don't make any sense or would be ineffective in this environment. I just think that there's so many differing opinions that even among those people. Yeah. Asking us, you're going to, well, come away with it. But it. But at the same time, the more information they have, even if it is from different sources or from different attitudes about it, they at least have the most information that they can get. Did you read the quote? Where did it go from? That's in the Associated Press article. Nate Sores, co-author of the 2025 book, If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies. Well, that's quite a happy title. Right. The one that he says, I think we've got to take this as a warning shot to not make them smarter. And that probably is going to require global collaboration. Right. Yeah, we've seen movies like that. Yeah. All right. When we come back. That's a good book title though, isn't it? If anybody builds it, everybody dies. Love it. The hot drink of the summer is cold, we'll explain. Shouldn't we have done this story in May? Like, isn't that, it's like talking about the hot song of the summer, which we don't have, which we haven't had for a couple years. Not since Charlie X, X, X, X, right? Oh, look at you. Listen, I'm not a adult. I never said that. My wife didn't know who Charlie X-CX was last week. And I felt proud. You felt proud. Yeah. I mean, I felt proud that I did know who she was. Right. Yes. She, right. You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI AM 640.

Coming up at the top of the hour, as we mentioned, yet another day, a preliminary hearing in the murder case against singer David in the death of Celeste Rivas. We'll talk about that. Also, did you know that you were not supposed to say Google it anymore? I did not know. Is that passe? It is passe. It is for, um, it is, I guess. Is it for olds? Is it for old? It's for, it's for, Google, Google. It's for olds. And, um, so we're going to tell you what the new thing to say is when you need somebody to look something up on the internet. Not look it up, Hoffman. Uh, man, that's also, wow, that's a callback. It's also passe. Congratulations. I've 20 years ago. Been in therapy for years for that. And now you've just, uh, picked that scab. So. Appreciate you poking that bruise. That's fun. That's a lot of fun. Hey, Gary, Shannon. Hey, I was just wondering, which one of you is not going to be in next week? Because it's more rare to hear you together than not.

Just curious. People are brutal. I love the chickens, by the way. Like, people will write comments on my personal Instagram page. Like, it's like a picture of like me and my dead father. And people are like, where were you this week? You take too many days off. Oh, you couldn't come to work today? It's like, calm. down. First of all, our vacations are done. Second of all, I got to kind of squeeze mine into the first half of the year because the second half of the year, I work on the weekends. So there's that. I understand that Gary and Shannon are on vacation or something, but why the age are we getting the same replay? We're on vacation right now. Uh-oh. Did you know that? I understand that Gary and Shannon are on vacation or something, but why the age are we getting the same replay all week long? Watch your language. It's getting fricking monotonous and boring and alerts for the wrong traffic accidents. Stop it. Elmer. Elmer. Are you? Is this, okay, we had this yesterday. Oh, really? Yeah. Remember we were like, is this really a hospital that they put us in for a few hours a day and pretend that we're on the radio just for us to do something? No. And they just. Elmer, what is your job description? Is it medical attendant or is it something to do with actually running a board at a radio station? And just be honest, be gentle, but like are you here as like an... What is it? And orderly? Is that what they call them? Yeah. Or is that up there with Google? No, I think orderly would probably be sort of one thing. Like what is your job here? Is it to take care of us? Or is it to do something like you're pretending to do right now with all those screens and the board? Gotcha. Well. What do orderlies look like? What are some descriptions? Kind of like you. I would say this. Usually the orderlies that I've seen. They're young. They're usually relatively large. Yeah. They can lift me onto the commode is what they can do. I don't know if you want to do that. Also, they usually dress in like. White. I never dressed in white. See, that's part of the passion tree of this. I don't think I've ever seen you drive into work. You may drive in with that uniform on and then put this on. Yeah, this is for us. This dark coloring. Stop. Don't overthink. But most importantly, are you just replaying a tape from Monday's show? He wears black a lot, I think, to throw us off. Shannon, stop asking so much questions. You're right. See, and see he calms us down the way they do. He does have a calm voice. Hey, Gary and Shannon. Brian from Palmdale. Hi, Brian. I work in cybersecurity. I'm calling BS on these like AI models breaking out. Okay. And hacking other companies, et cetera, et cetera. You know, they said the same thing about Claude's mythos.

This is all marketing schick. It's to get everybody talking about it and all of that kind of stuff to get interest. They know what's happening. That is an interesting perspective because we have talked about those things where the government's like, you better upon plug that thing. It's too powerful. That's like your car is too fast. It's too comfortable. It's too amazing. You better pull the plug on that. I just feel like AI doesn't need our interest at this point. It's not like it's a new brand that needs traction and for people to talk about. Yeah, I mean, it's not like we're getting people to talk about Burger King again. But those companies that are competing against each other in that space may feel like that they need to do that. Maybe. But we don't get that granular because we're dumb-dums. So when we talk about AI, we don't talk about Claude and Mythos or what have you. We just talk about AI. We ran out of time. Burger King, on the other hand. I kill someone for a whopper right now. Next hour, we will talk about bluge. What is bluge? It's sort of a, as they say in the world of French, portmanteau for the word white, which is French. White is Todd Blanche. Blanc. Are we talking about wine? We're talking about French words right now, but we get to one in a second. The French word for white is Blanc. And the French word for red is? Roja. Close. Rioja. Rouge. French. I don't drink a lot of French wines. No, nobody does. I drink this stuff that you can get in a box. They say these bluge wines are the new thing. Ah, what does that mean? Okay. The French word for white is. So rosé. So like a white zin. It's kind of like a rosé. It is funny to see how this is being remarketed. Big ups to the wine company for rebranding white Zin, the white trash wine of the 80s as rosé, the hot girl summer drink of the early 2000s. Gary and Shannon will continue right after this.
