Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Gary and Shannon and you're listening to KFI
AM six forty the Gary and Shannon Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app. We have a full show still coming.
I can't believe only have two hours. I mean, we
have a lot to cram in here.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
How are we going to give it?

Speaker 1 (00:18):
If you missed the first two hours, you missed a
hell of a lot to a lot of FNN sm
So check out the podcast on the iHeart app if
you missed it.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Mach Mood Khalil, a prominent Palestinian activist who helped lead
Columbia University's student protests movement demanding a ceasefire in Gaza,
has been arrested by federal immigration authorities. They said they
were acting on a state department order to revoke his
green card. He was at the forefront of the movement
there at Columbia last year and among those under investigation

(00:48):
by a new university committee that brought disciplinary charges against
a bunch of students for their pro Palestinian activism on
campus over the last year.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
President Trump won't rule out a recession, which means the
death I was responding right now. Down eight hundred and
sixty one points. That's where we kick off swamp Watch.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
I'm a politician, which means I'm a cheat and a liar,
and when I'm not kissing babies, I'm stealing their lollipops.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
Here we got the real problem is that our leaders
are done.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
The other side never quits what what?

Speaker 2 (01:19):
I'm not going anywhere.

Speaker 5 (01:21):
So that you train the.

Speaker 6 (01:23):
Squaw, I can imagine what can be and be unburdened
by what has been.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
You know, Americans have always been gone.

Speaker 7 (01:28):
A stupid every day.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
I'm like, oh, she actually tell the true Whether people
voted for you were not swamp watch.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
They're all count of North So yesterday the President was
asked on Fox Business whether or not he thinks there's
a recession in our future.

Speaker 6 (01:44):
Are you expecting a recession this year?

Speaker 4 (01:49):
I hate to predict things like that. There is a
period of transition because what we're doing is very big.
We're bringing wealth back to America. That's a big thing,
and there are always periods of it takes a little time.
It takes a little time. But I don't I think
it should be great for us. I mean I think

(02:10):
it should be great. It's going to be great ultimately
for the farmer you know, don't forget I mean and
I want.

Speaker 7 (02:14):
To ask you about Ukraine.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
So the sort of the back and forth when it
comes to the tariffs. By the way, the Commerce Secretary
also yesterday, Howard Lutnik, he said there's no need to
brace for a recession.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
So it's not the only thing that.

Speaker 7 (02:30):
Makes a ression worse is bracing for one.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Right, So this volatility that we've seen on Wall Street
will continue for some time. The CBOE Volatility Index, they
call it the fear gauge, jumped about thirteen percent by
mid morning, and as we mentioned, most of the major
the indices have been in negative territory. The Dow is

(02:54):
down almost two percent right now, S and P five
hundred down two and a half percent. NASDAK is off
by four percent, and we're seeing things like Apple specifically,
Apple may see its worst day since twenty twenty two
in terms of trading on Wall Street.

Speaker 7 (03:10):
Where do we stand with the tariffs.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Well, last week he backed off for a month when
it came to the auto industry that does business all
over North America, Canada and Mexico. But today we find
that the Ontario premiere Doug Ford, at a press conference
said he would move forward with a twenty five percent
surcharge on electricity exports to three states in the US

(03:33):
starting today, warning that he would turn off access if
the United States adds new tariffs on Canadian goods, saying
if the US escalates, I will not hesitate to shut
off electricity completely. This is talking about New York, Minnesota,
and Michigan. Says that a twenty five percent surcharge surcharge

(03:56):
would cost families and businesses in those three states particular
at about one hundred dollars per month to the bills
of families.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
Speaking of Canada, they have a new prime minister, Mark
Carney is going to take over for Justin Trudeau, and
in his speech over the weekend.

Speaker 8 (04:14):
America is not Canada and Canada never ever will be
part of America in any way, shape or form.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
We didn't ask for this fight.

Speaker 8 (04:30):
We didn't ask for this fight. The Canadians are always
this is not going.

Speaker 7 (04:35):
To be on our wheel of motivational speeches.

Speaker 8 (04:38):
Americans, they should make no mistake in trade. As in
hockey Canada.

Speaker 1 (04:43):
Oh my goodness you he wears her Brooks. That was
so Canadian, wasn't that? Like any other country would be like, we.

Speaker 7 (04:53):
Didn't ask for this fight, but we're gonna win it.

Speaker 1 (04:56):
But in Canada it's we didn't ask for this fight,
but we will win it.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
Let me see, do I have herb Brooks?

Speaker 7 (05:05):
Of course you do.

Speaker 9 (05:06):
We all.

Speaker 10 (05:08):
Are born from great opportunity.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
Oh my god, I love that. I want makes me
want to play hockey. I don't know how to play hockey.
I can't even skate.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Man, you'd go out there and flail on the ice.

Speaker 7 (05:22):
I'll show that icing whose boss?

Speaker 2 (05:24):
All right?

Speaker 1 (05:26):
I think icing is when it passes over three lines,
untouched the puck.

Speaker 7 (05:30):
I don't know what did you want to talk about?

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Oh, you're into Gloria already.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
Oh right, let's all put on our baby pink Chanel
sweater sets, jump on our phone books so we can
see over the table at our press conferences and talk
about how Gloria all read intimidates her own clients.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 3 (05:59):
We have been watching, of course, whatever is going on
with the back and forth tariff slapping that's been going on.
One of the things that's happened also in terms of
the government. Well, it may be the government is that
X has had a series of outages over the last say,
twelve to eighteen hours Twitter. That is Elon Musk says

(06:22):
that this is a massive cyber attack that's going on.
There were about forty thousand outages of reports of outages
on Twitter over the previous twenty four hours, and according
to Elon Musk, he wrote on X for those that
could see it, there was and still is a massive
cyber attack against X. We get attacked every day, but

(06:44):
this was done with a lot of resources. Either a
large coordinated group and or a country is involved, and
that he wrote the word tracing like they're investigating.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
Breaking news out of a courtroom in Orange County where
jurors are deadlocked. This is the case of the Orange
County judge sitting judge who shot and killed his wife
back in the fall of twenty twenty three. They went
out for dinner, had a couple pops, came back, shoots
and kills her. Sends a text message to his bailiff

(07:14):
and court reporter at the time saying I won't be
in tomorrow. I shot my wife. Sorry about that, something
to that effect.

Speaker 7 (07:21):
Now.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
When he went to trial, his attorney argued that he
accidentally fired, that he didn't mean to, but it was
arthritis and his shoulder that led to him fumbling the
gun accidentally shooting and killing her.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
This ardritis in his shoulder.

Speaker 1 (07:36):
This jury had a really hard time in times were
in tears, at least one jur crying over their deliberations.
They deliberated much longer than they hurt evidence in this case,
and they could not decide if it was involuntary manslaughter
or second degree murder. They were sent back repeatedly into

(07:57):
the jury room. Now they are deadlocked, so that is
a mistrial. They were split eleven to one on second
degree murder charges after their eighth day of deliberations in
the trial of Jeffrey Ferguson. So now the prosecutors will
decide whether to retry the case.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
Next hour, we're going to do our first motivational Monday.
We're taking suggestions about what you'd want to hear.

Speaker 6 (08:19):
Welcome back to Dynamic Duo. As far as a motivational speech,
if you guys can remember the speech that Robin Williams
gave in Dead Poet Society.

Speaker 7 (08:29):
Hmm on top of the table list.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
But you guys have a wonderful Day welcome back.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Thank you?

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Is that I sound my barbaric yop over the rooftops?

Speaker 1 (08:43):
Well, I think that was the stand on the desk.
There's a couple of them in Dead Poet Society. I
got another one for Motivational Monday from Darren Stay. A
live speech by Daniel day Lewis from Last of the Mohicans.

Speaker 7 (08:55):
I never saw that one.

Speaker 10 (08:57):
Hey, Gary and Shannon, glad you're both back.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
Love to hear the both of you. Hey.

Speaker 10 (09:01):
Motivational speech Teddy Atlas in the corner of his fighter
Timothy Bradley for a WBO championship fight. That corner his
talk about we're fireman. Holy hell, I'll run through a wall.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
I have to listen to that. Yeah, carry on, that's
really great.

Speaker 11 (09:22):
Hi, Gary and Channon, It's so nice to have you
back together, both of you.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
I think a great motivational speech in.

Speaker 11 (09:29):
The movie was to kill a mockingbird.

Speaker 12 (09:31):
When Atticus Spinch was talking to regret his Dodger Scout
on the swing on the porch.

Speaker 11 (09:38):
I'm about walking in a man's shoes, et cetera.

Speaker 7 (09:41):
That's also good.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
You and I both had the opportunity to cover Gloria
all Red Press conferences at Gloria Alread's office.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
It's a rite of passage when you become a roar
proorder in LA You got to figure out the parking
on Wilshire, You got to make your way into the
high rise office. You got to go through all the
different waiting rooms in our office, the whole bit.

Speaker 7 (10:01):
And then you sit.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Around the large oval table in the cramped room with
all the other reporters wanting to hear the lurid details
of what have happened to sure to be a female
client in a workplace situation, usually or involving a celebrity male.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
Yeah, and obviously the twenty years ago when I did it,
when I covered it, we hadn't gotten to the Me
too movement yet.

Speaker 7 (10:27):
That was her time to sparkle. That was her bally Wick.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
She was living it up and which we think about it,
the fall of twenty seventeen was really the me Too
movement gaining all of the momentum. And she was at
the time she was eighty I'm sorry, seventy seven, seventy six.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
She is a firecracker. She I mean, she's eighty three now.
We talked to her when we were in Chicago for
the convention, and she hasn't missed a beat since I
first started covering her twenty years ago. She first burst
onto my radar when I was still up in Sacramento
when Lacy Peterson went missing, and she remember came in
and represented Amberfry the Mistress. She was the one behind

(11:10):
the Amber Fry makeover. Remember her coming down the escalator
with like her arm around her and everyone's like, whoa,
she got a makeover?

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Yes she did.

Speaker 1 (11:19):
And that's the way Gloria Already has always seen with
her arm around a female victim, the victims usually in tears.
She usually has like a new suit from from Cole's
or wherever they outfit people to make them presentable for
the cameras. It's this whole thing. It's a Gloria Already machine.
It works well. And now the Wall Street Journal has

(11:40):
put out a hip piece saying, well, she's not as
sweet as she Well, of course she's not. You've had
several strong women in your life in your family, sure,
very strong women.

Speaker 7 (11:52):
Right.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
Part of the reason that they are strong and inspirational
and successful when it comes to business raising families instilling
values is because they will tell you at one point
snap the hell out of it, what the hell's wrong
with you? And the Wall Street Journal has done a
ten page article on this aspect of Gloria Allred's personality,

(12:17):
and I'd like to defend her.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
Well.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
One example, the one that they lead with, was a
woman who was twenty years old. Her name was s
f Rosina Angelova. When she was twenty, she accused Armie
Hammer the actor, of raping her, beating her and said
that she thought that he was going to kill me.

(12:39):
Not at that press conference, Gloria already sits there and
they talk about the case.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
She said.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
At one point did f Rosina that she called Gloria
Alread because she was having a hard time with all
of this, and she said she was having a panic attack,
and that Gloria Allread said, get a hold of yourself.
How are you get a hold of yourself, and that
I'm giving you tough love and you're not paying me

(13:07):
you have twelve hundred dollars an hour or whatever she makes.
And that took Efrosina by surprise because she thought that
she was going to be a much more.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
A softer, gentler attorney who's been in the business for
more than fifty years and has made a name for herself.
You think she's gotten that far with hugs and smiling. No, no,
she orchestrates all of that. She is a machine. And
you know what, sometimes you need to be told get
a hold of yourself.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
Yes, Now, is this just an attitude or is there
more to it, because there's a lot of paperwork that
goes into hiring Gloria already, and the two people that
she's working with, Morocco and Goldberg.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Well, and the thing is you see, you know it
is Mark geragis right, you see him on CNN or whatever.

Speaker 7 (13:56):
And he's an affable guy.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
He has a bunch of people that work under him
that do all the dirty details. They're the ones who
call the clients and say, hey, you haven't paid in
three months. We're gonna come take control of your house
if you don't pay up. That's not nice either, but
it's the it's the cost of doing business. When you're
in the law game.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
And when you go to the highest profile lawyer you
can find you're going to have to run through.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
You come to us, you know, we'll defend you with
hugs and sparkles.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
We'll talk about what these women are having to do
in terms of signing non disclosure agreements, keeping things under wraps.
When it talks specifically about how they deal with Gloria
al rom When did.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
The Wall Street Journal become so in need of a space,
a safe space.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Gary and Shannon will continue.

Speaker 5 (14:45):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. I almost said law
because law and order seems to be the breaking news today.
We've got the new DA at La County District Attorney's Office,
Nathan Hawkman saying, yeah, that old George Gascon wanting to
let the Menanda's brothers out.

Speaker 7 (15:06):
We're not into that.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Basically re litigated why they were convicted all those years ago. Today,
so they have withdrawn their recommendation that Gascon put in
place aimed at reducing the prison term of the Menendez brothers.
One of the things Hawkman said is they have been
owned up to it. They want to accept complete responsibility
for what happened. We can have a talk at that moment,

(15:30):
but that's not where we're at.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
A disaster at sea today, at least thirty two casualties
reported after an oil tanker containing a shipment of jet
fuel collided with a cargo vessel off the coast of
Britain up in the North Sea. Chief executive of one
of the ports there said that thirteen casualties. Casualties were
initially brought in on a windcat vessel, followed by another

(15:53):
ten on a harbor pilot boat, nine others on another
pilot's vessel as they're trying to evacuate the the people
off of that ship.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Talking about Gloria all read long time lifelong crusade against
sexual misconduct representing women accused by Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Cosby,
Harvey Weinstein, r Kelly Shancombs.

Speaker 7 (16:12):
And that's just recently.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
She's eighty three, but she's been at this for a
very long time. The Wall Street Journal did a breakdown
involving some of her clients who say that they were
shocked at her image versus what her private approach is.
They said that at the time when they contacted her firm,
they felt vulnerable and alone. They wanted that woman that

(16:33):
they see on TV in the pink suits holding them
and hugging them and being a yes person in their lives.
That goes without saying, that's just me reading between the
lines here, but they say that that they call into
question if this firm and Gloria all read were operating
in their best interest.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
Yeah, so the image and you referenced this. So when
she's got her arm around, whether it's Amber Fry or
any of the other people that she's represented over the
course of the years, she's got this image of being
the consoler in chief, She's the one who is there
to help these people through these difficult times, but that
in private, she scolds them, she intimidates them, She threatens
to drop them as clients if they disobey anything that

(17:16):
she says. Some of these women who talked to The
Wall Street Journal said that the lawyers repeatedly conveyed the
idea that the women were lucky to even be talking
to Gloria Alred's law firm, and that even though she
says she publicly wants women to speak out about these injustices,
that some women were told specifically to delete text and

(17:38):
video evidence, and that several women said that her firm
pressured them to sign non disclosure agreements that in their mind,
goes to protect the predators because these women can't talk
to other women who may have also been victims of
that same offender.

Speaker 7 (17:55):
That is not a Gloria Allred thing. That is a
law thing.

Speaker 1 (18:00):
That is what happens at every lawyer's office who chooses
to represent you. And there's a reason for that, so
it can't be used against you in the pending litigation.
There's a lot of works that goes behind those cute
photo ops. It's not just pink suits and photo ops.
There's a lot of dirty people at play here, and

(18:22):
that's why you hire people like Gloria alright, who's been
about around the block seventy five thousand times. More than
a dozen women yelled and cried to The Wall Street
Journal about saying their requests were dismissed. They would call
no one would call them back. They were limited, like
you said, from speaking about their experiences. Some question whether

(18:44):
they're payouts were as high as they could be. All
things that happened when you are the victim in a
case or you're seeking some sort of legal remedy in
the terms in terms of a check.

Speaker 10 (19:00):
But the.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
Specifics about what this law firm run by Gloria already
has have been described as more onerous than what the
law would require or what they might do to protect themselves.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
There was one.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
For example, the firm negotiated a settlement with an NDA
for a musician and a composer, Nomi Abdi, in July
of twenty eighteen with Danny Elfman, longtime Oingo Boingo lead singer.
Was also all kinds of different movie soundtracks and scores.
The allegation was sexual misconduct. Danny Elfman denied the sexual

(19:39):
misconduct allegations.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
Neither one of them.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
Neither the accuser or the accused were allowed to have
copies of a settlement agreement to make sure that it
didn't get out.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
It wasn't disclosed to anybody.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
Her lawyer also took her only copy of the police
report that she had filed about Danny Elfman, and was
later told to text messages from Danny Elfman when she
did get a former a different law firm to sue
Elfman over the payments that she said he hadn't made
as part of the settlement. The police report wasn't even
in her file that Gloria Allred's firm still had. So

(20:17):
I don't know how many hundreds of cases, dozens of
hundreds of cases the law firm handled, but it seems
like there's there's there could be.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Uh, find me a clean law firm. Find me one
clean law firms.

Speaker 2 (20:32):
That's probably the best way to sum it up.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
Yeah, I mean overall, yes, is there some shady business,
of course? Or is it's a cost of doing business
with the law. Everyone knows that. It's why you have
to hire the lawyers. No one wants to hire a lawyer.
But you can't navigate the mess that is the legal system.
And that's what sucks about it. And of course all
of them are going to be dirty. And I guess
the only thing I would say is, if you want

(20:55):
to sign on with an attorney, see what they're going
to have you sign and get it looked at by
another attorney. If you're worried about stuff being deleted or
what have you. If that is the thing. But that's
the thing. I mean, it's like getting your taxes done.
I don't want to know how the sausage is made.
Just I'll give you the papers, you put the numbers in,
tell me how much money I have to oh or

(21:16):
I get back or whatever. Like, you don't know all
the things that go into it. That's why you have
to hire that guide to do your taxes.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
It sucks, all right, don't forget twelve thirty our motivational Monday.
The first time we're going to do our motivational Monday,
we'll spin the wheel and play motivational speech.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Okay, So whatever speech it lands on, that's the one
we pay play for today, yes, okay, And then that's
going to help us go forth with our week and
be successful and confident and ready to just break.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
Through a wall, I hope.

Speaker 7 (21:47):
So with productivity and happiness.

Speaker 3 (21:51):
I mean, do you want to hear the list of
the ones we already have that are we'll do that,
we come back because we have some other suggestions to
get to.

Speaker 7 (21:58):
Yeah, we still have more suggestions.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
So if you have a favorite motivational speech or halftime whatever,
it is, some sort of speech that just makes you
fired up and gets you ready to take on the world,
let us know what it is, because we already have
a few, but we'd we'd like to get some more.

Speaker 7 (22:16):
Gary and Shannon will continue.

Speaker 5 (22:18):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
As worries about tariffs and an impending recession that loom
over the East Coast.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
A couple of local stories that we've been following this storm.
It's going to be rolling in tonight. There's an expectation
that San Diego County is going to start to see
some rain. But tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday, we'll see some significant
rain here in the LA area, most of it probably
early Wednesday is when we'll see it really start.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Hospital.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
Four deputies had to be sent to the hospital, including
one who suffered a puncture wound, when a bunch of
inmates were involved in an attack at Men's Central Jail
LA yesterday. They said it was a routine inmate movement.
The Sheriff's department said that they jumped. One of the
deputies sustained a puncture type injury. Other deputies came and

(23:11):
obviously took care of everything. They said that they did
find a jail made weapon after the incident.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Before we get to our motivational talks, would you like
your jeopardy question?

Speaker 7 (23:25):
We haven't done this for a very long time.

Speaker 2 (23:26):
Do you miss it?

Speaker 1 (23:28):
I once say I've been missing it? Bob Okay, I
mean I don't know. Did you miss it? Do you
think people miss this? Do you think people like this
jeopardy thing?

Speaker 2 (23:38):
I have no idea.

Speaker 7 (23:41):
I mean, we don't have to do it.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
Oh, or give me the music from this.

Speaker 7 (23:44):
We haven't even played any of our stuff.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
Keep trying, it's coming.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
We haven't even played on our stuff. We haven't even
played the booty song. I haven't heard any of our
stuff for a long time.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
Well, it's because the computer's.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
Not It's like we have a box in the closet
filled with all our old toys and we haven't played
long time.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Not this, not this one, that one. A little guy.

Speaker 7 (24:10):
Everyone always forgets about the.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Little guy there is.

Speaker 7 (24:13):
There is a little guy.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Toys their old toys. The human body for two hundred dollars.
This a large organ that removes toxins from our bloody
secretes about one quart of bile per day.

Speaker 7 (24:34):
Jesus, Mary and Joseph pull back the curtain on the
human body. I like my curtains clothed.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
What is my liver?
