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. That's the year that the Brewers joined the A National League, National League. I was gonna say the American League the first time I ever went to Angel Stadium and watched Angels play the Brewers really back in the day when they only played within their league,
when they were both the American League. There will be at the bottom of the hour a chance for you to tell us what you learned this week on the Gary and Shannon Show. All you have to do is go on to the iHeart app if that's how you're listening to us, And right next to the big play button is a little white microphone. You tap that little button and you could leave us a message for about about a thirty second message is
what they'll give you. Of course, the countdown is on. Now when was this interview taped, So it's supposed to be after this this rally, but before five o'clock our time. Yeah, and they're going to have it all edited down and ready. They say they're not editing. They're not editing. Okay, so we're talking about George Stephanopolos is going to be interviewing President Biden, and ABC News is going to air the whole thing eight o'clock Eastern,
five Pacific. And they say they're going to do it without edit, that the interview itself is not going to be very long. They said somewhere between fifteen twenty five minutes based on the negotiation, and that it will take place after this rally. President Biden is in Madison, Wisconsin for this rally, and they've been waiting for the last couple of minutes for him to come to the stage. Well, they've got to cut it for commercial brights,
don't they. Oh really, it's just I mean, I guess they could, but I don't think they need to. So it's just going to be fifteen or twenty minutes of just a raw interview start to finish. It better be, yeah, I mean, especially if that's what they are trying to show us, that he's got all of marbles, then you better not edit that. Saying it's the most important interview of his life. It's not really about Joe Biden. Note at this point, is it it's the most interview,
It's the most important interview of democrats life or what happened immediately. It's the most important for Democrats, But for his career this could be you could argue, whatever legacy he wants to leave, this is going to be an important time for it. What else is going on? Time four? What's happening? Wow? Tropical storm Burrel thrashing Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula. It's moving closer towards southern Texas. It's bringing winds clocked at seventy miles per hour, damaging
waves, dangerous storm surge. It's killed nearly a dozen people so far. It is expected to weaken but then gain gain some strength when it moves over the Gulf of Mexico towards southern Texas Sunday night into Monday morning. They're talking about ten inches of rain expected, with so flash flooding possible throughout the Yucatan Peninsula. Four to eight inches or more of rain as possible in parts of northeastern Mexico and South Texas as we get into Sunday in the beginning of next
week. In fact, some of the places in Texas have already suggested people just get out, yeah, because it's going to be so damaging going through there. There is some containment on the fire lines at Oraville. This is called the Thompson Fire. Cal Fire says as of last night, the fire
still burns at over thirty five hundred acres containment about ten percent. The Basin Fire east of Fresno about fourteen thousand acres forty six percent containment, and then the French Fire burning in Mariposa County near the entrance to Yosemite is up getting
closer to one thousand acres and only about five percent contained there. In fact, they've had to shut down Highway one forty closed from the north junction of Highway forty nine to another one north junction east of the north junction of Higway forty nine. Sacks Fifth Avenue and Nieman Marcus are merging going to create a luxury department store Empire. Amazon wants in on this as well. Sax Owner announced a deal to acquire Neiman Marcus for two point sixty five billion, establishing
this mega luxury brand called SAX Global. Two namesake department stores, plus It's got Sacks off Fifth the discount store and the upscale burg Dwarf Goodman. The two companies have been linked to merger talks for years, and they say the deal gives a more leverage to negotiate with luxury brands for lower costs. Sas has thirty nine stores. I never would have been. Nieman Marcus, which filed for bankruptcy, has about thirty six. And Nieman also owns that burg
Burg Dwarf what is it? Burgg Dwarf Goodman. Amazon is investing in the merger, working with sax Global to innovate on behalf of customers and brands partners following the clothes of the transaction. I have no idea what that means in real life. We've been blissfully away from Kanye News for a long time,
which has been nice. But apparently a new lawsuit, first reported in court Watch, some former employees working on an app for Kanye claimed that they were regularly and viciously bullied for their ages, their races, their genders, their sexual orientation, and their national origins or ethnicities, which means listen, he offends everybody. Right. He called modern day African Americans living in a capitalistic
society the new slaves, essentially owned by wealthy people in large corporations. For instance, the new employees who came on to work for him, were added to a discord channel called New Slaves, which remained until one of the employees demanded that it be changed because of the blatant races. Aren't we just dealing with untreated mental illness with him? Isn't that what we decided on? Uh? Yeah, do you know who he was working with though? On this
No Milounopolis. Oh that checks out. Talk about mental illness. I'm treated that they forced workers, including some who are children, what to work long hours and sometimes forego sleep, which required them to sacrifice school and personal time. He is This lawsuit was filed here in LA because obviously he's got a base of operations out at Northridge, but also Beverly Beverly Grove and says that these minor workers were also happened to be exposed to pornography as part of the
development of an app called called Yeasy Porn. Yeah, if you work for Yeezy Porn, guess what you're going to be exposed to? Crazy people endport. Isn't everyone kind of exposed to porn if you have the Internet these days, probably, whether you're looking forward or not, it's going to be there at some point. Yeah, one shark was getting pretty chompy down at South Padre Island. Shark attacks disrupted some Fourth or July celebrations there. Police were
called for an attack. One guy was bitten severely bitting about eleven o'clock in the morning, initially treated at the beach by firefighters, and then two other people bitten and more encountered the shark but were not hurt. One of the bite victims had to be taken to the hospital in Brownsville, the other one was flown out for further treatment, and they said they believe a single six foot shark was responsible, so beach patrol, firefighters, police patrolled the shore.
They put drones up after the attacks to find it. The last reported shark attack in that South Padre Island area was five years ago. Do you think that's what it sounds like when a shark bites. I don't think there's a lot of sound unless he, you know, comes out of the water and gets you, except that foreboding, that foreboding organ where it's just yeah, I think you'd hear a crunch. No, that's not even an organ, that's a cello. That's a string instrument. You hear that and you're
at the beach. Get the hell out of there. Get out of the water, all right, don't forget to let us know what you learned this week on the Gary and Shannon Show. I know it's probably slim pickens. Well, I mean we learned that it's homecome Friday. Remember the owls. We learned about the owls. I don't remember. You don't know the owls. How they're going to go getters and they're going to go in and kill the bard am just the bard owls to save the spotted owl. Right,
something something, there's one thing. There's one thing. And then that Harriet Tubman used the sound of the barred owl to communicate during the underground railroad days. That's two things we learned. That's a lot, both involving owls. We'll talk about how hot it's going to get. Alex Stone's going to join us. So finally when we come back. You're listening to Gary and Shannon
on demand from KFI AM six forty. President Biden to speak at that campaign rally up in Madison, Wisconsin. They've been waiting for him for a while. Yeah, those people have been seated there for a long time. There's been several different speakers. I don't know who any of these people are because they're all local politicians there, but Gary and Shannon. Yes, greetings from
Irvin. Hello, Yeah, thank you for your hanks. What you learned this week on the Gary and Channon Show is going to come up after the news at the bottom of the hour, so leave us a talkback message. Tell us what you learned this week while listening to the Gary and Shannon Show. It's hot, It's damn hot. Did you want to play some of your hot music? No, feeling hot? Hot hot, It's too hot
for that. We're having a heat wave. Today is probably going to be the hottest day of the week, at least here in the valley for example, where it's going to be oh what one hundred and ten Maybe I just stopped counting. Alex Stone is going to join us and tell us where people are going to die from this heat? Alex oh too soon? Yeah? How was your birthday? Shannon? It was great? You know what,
It was really cool coming into work. I usually don't work because it's near the fourth of July and go out of town or something, but I worked and it was Everyone was so wonderful and it was just it was very heart It was a very heartwarming birthday. Did you when you were growing up, always have like Fourth of July slash birthday parties the day, always mesh them together like Christmas babies. No, because I think Fourth of July people usually
with their families. They don't you don't take your kids to a birthday party. But you know what one of the struggles was that everyone was out of town, so you know, you'd have to do your birthday in late June. You brother, Yeah, you and my brother and Dennis hanging out in Pedaluma. Yeah. So, yeah, it is hot today. It's already one hundred and ten in some of the suburbs around Santa Clarita and whatnot? Is it is? Is it one hundred and ten? At your house?
Phone says that, yeah, wow, what are you wearing right now? Well, jeans and a button down shirt. Jeans. All of us have to go to work, you know, and see other people. I mean, I guess you guys see other people too. But it's shorts Friday for us. Yeah. Yeah. In Disney, well maybe some areas of Disney they do that, but not ABC News. Uh yeah, So one hundred
and fifteen in Fresno today one hundred eleven Victorville. But so all of this heat gonna move east and on Sunday that is when gonna be pretty crazy. In Vegas. The all time record is one hundred and seventeen degrees. Wouldn't you thot it would have been higher than that in Vegas? Yeah, that seems a little for everything. You know, Death Valley says it's going to be one hundred and twenty five or something like that, and usually Vegas tracks
pretty closely to me. Yeah, so you would think that the all time would be higher, but on Sunday and Tuesday they could be one hundred and twenty. So today's one hundred and fourteen in Vegas. It's gonna be like winter for them today compared to in a couple of days. But never a sweater if you're going to Vegas exactly er docs in Vegas. You're telling people, don't do what you go to Vegas to do if you're going to be there, don't drink booze. No the other triggers that can make it worse
off for you of things like alcohol, caffeine for hydration. No booze, no caffeine not being dehydrated in Vegas, there's no reason to go. But they're just saying that, you know it's otherwise you're going to feel effects of it. But those who live in Vegas, they've been out in the parks all this week and they've been enjoying. It's one hundred and ten degrees. They've said, not that bad, but maybe one hundred and twenty it would be a little bit different. This lady's saying, you know what, one
hundred twenty that is unbearable. She's going to bring her kid inside. They're going to Netflix and chill that that that's too much. Now I'm going to stand inside. And then you mentioned Death Valley on Sunday. There is a potential about a twenty percent potential that they're going to get to one hundred and
thirty degrees in Death Valley. If that does happen, that'll be the first verified temperature on Earth of one hundred and thirty degrees that people have gone out there with their own And there's that giant thermometer that's sitting in the sun that they've gotten up to one hundred and thirty four before, But they say that's not verified, shouldn't be sitting in the sun, that doesn't count. But if they can get an official one hundred and thirty on the official thermometers,
then that would be the hottest day anywhere on Earth. And when it is that hot, the park rangers guys say don't go there. That if your car breaks down, don't go hiking out there as well. But if even if your car breaks down, it's hard to get to people and to help them out. Medical choppers will not be going in when it's that hot. They will not go searching for hikers. If people get lost, they always
go early in the morning and then get into the heat problems. They've told us it can be too hot for the emergency air ambulance helicopters to fly because warm air is thinner, which means there's less left for the helicopter rotors. If we get a call that is for a missing person, we will not do a search on foot for those people until it cools down below one hundred and twenty degrees. Under one hundred and twenty take a while in Death Valley
at nighttime, so it's going to be odd. Then there's all the wildfires you guys were talking about, the one near Yosemite in Mariposa that's been impacting Highway one forty. But we just got an update a little while ago that some of the evacuation orders are being lifted on that, so things appear to be calming on that fire. There was a one up near Oroville where eight firefighters were injured this week, and most of it was heat related. They're
recovering, They're going to be all right. That fire has calmed down as well. So without the wind, I think we're being helped out here, even though it's hot next week, though Calfire's telling us they are worried about so hot in dry this week that next week he had onto it. We've seen all the fire activity in Oreville and Mariposa and elsewhere just this week,
and this was the first week of it. Next week is probably going to be pretty active fire wise, but without the wind, hopefully that'll help out. Where are we on power shortages or power outages? I have Inveigot question.
We've not heard anything about that this year so far, and maybe we're still too early into it and being summer that people are way and they're not running their air conditioning quite as much as they would be in the fall and then you know, people get home and crank it up all at one time. But that hasn't been a concern so far. I'm sure it will be at some point, but so far we're not hearing about it. It's one
hundred and seventeen at your house right now, is it really? And I just looked at the Yeah, I thought you were working from home for some reason. That's why I asked what you were wearing. Obviously you're wearing real
clothes. Clothes, Yeah, well, not always. According to the California Independent System Operator, the peak today would be about forty three thousand megawatts and we have a capacity for fifty six thousand, almost fifty seven thousand, so we're well under what the demand would be for today, at least the forecast. That could change because it could get hotter than they expect and more people
turn on. Don't you wonder if more people are getting solar and battery back up and all that, that the demand should be going down a little bit. Well yea, and Gray Davis isn't governor anymore, so there's that there is that he was. He was the speed bump and all of that. Excellent, Alex, Stay cool, you got to stay hydrated to keep those kids cool too. Yeah, but don't drink a lot of booze. Yeah, keep your kids away from the booze. Keep out of the liquor cabinet
this weekend though. Thanks Alex. All right, what you learned this week on The Gary and Shannon Show and our nine news Nuggets. You need to know when we were turning, Alex's kids must be getting Oh, my goodness, I remember when they were when when they were born. You remember when I was in the marriom. But I do remember and remember when he met his girlfriend. Yeah, I don't remember that part. My goodness. We're getting old, lady, We are getting so old. You're listening to Gary
and Shannon on demand from KFI AM six forty. He's finally there. President Biden is in Wisconsin, Madison, to be exact, addressing voters amid the doubts about him remaining on the top of the ticket. High energy, you're going to stay in the race. Is he gonna drop out? What you're gonna do? Well, here's my answer. I am running and gonna win again. All right, Well, I mean that's that's the high energy version of him. We'll see if it sticks around. Yeah, but the visual
I'm watching it as what you just played. Yeah, the visual is a problem. It's still it's still the look. Still the look. What do they call it? The twenty fifth Amendment? Stare? The uh? Do you know Jeff Dunham the he's a ventriloquist, does a Vegas show. Sounds familiar. He does a He has a character, the old Grumpy Guy. Walter is one of his puppets. Walter is a good name for an old grumpy guy. That's the look, really Yeah, And I don't I don't
know if anybody's ever said that before to him. But and then the yelling doesn't come across as good well, and I think part of that is is coached. I think a lot of people have said, you know, that's when you appear most energetic is when you're yelling. But you know, if it sounds like you're telling people to get off your lawn or worse, I mean, it's some scary moments. If you have had people in your life that have had Alzheimer's dementia, when they yell, it gives you anxiety.
It gives me anxiety thinking about it. I've had a couple relatives with that because when they yell, they're agitated, and you know you can't fix it, you can't control it, you have no power to make them feel better. It's a helpless feeling and I think it brings back a lot of that for people. That's funny. I didn't think about that, but that's a
that is a good observation. Well, what we do on Fridays is we like to look back in our week and see if we've made a difference, if we have reason to be grateful, have gratitude, right, I think we do. And one of the ways that we feel a little bit better about ourselves is if we are able to bring some sort of information to you that you didn't already know, like about owls. And one way to check in on that is to ask you, what you learned this week on the
Gary and Channon Show. So what did you learn this week on the Gary and Channon Show. Oh, let me turn this on. Wait, let me hold on a second, tell time out everything going on at the same time, Joe take two. Hey, what I learned and didn't learn on the Gary and Shannon Show this week is I now know the main reason Shannon doesn't have kids. She sleeps with her pants on. And what I didn't learn is I missed it if Gary's Peter was adopted or did he pay money
for it? I hope it's a rescue dog. But anyway, I didn't learn now, so maybe you can straighten it out. I don't know what I'm more uncomfortable with. Can we not say the term Gary's Peter? Yeah? Exactly? This is Robin Osi. This week on Gary Shannon Show, I learned that both Gary and Shannon like the beef stick. Beefstick, great show, guys, have great weekend, well, and our love for beefsticks
has been around a while. Who doesn't. I mean I don't eat them all the time because they're not great for you, probably, but that doesn't mean I don't like every once in a while. Greetings from Irvine. We already heard that one's who's putting these? Hey Gary, Hey Shannon? Hey, what I learned this week? Actually learned it just today that when Shannon was twenty five, she had a hard time controlling round call Andrew Genitals Hong
Kong. That was from the guy who urinated, urinated, and masturbated on the plane. Oh okay, got it? Hey, Gary and Shannon it's the course like King currently. And what I learned is even if we get stuck working Friday on the fourth of July weekend, you guys are still there to keep us laughing. Yep, I appreciate it. And I also learned to stay away from easy partners from easy parn Gosh. That's the thing I learned this week on the Gary and Shannon Show is Gary doesn't know what a
brown truck is. No as EPs driver. I'm ashamed that you don't know. Have a good weekend. This is the Cruz. Yes, what can brown do for you? Yes? Right? Okay? And I learned on the Gary and Shannon Show today this week at honkers aren't geese. They are geese, but they're also not geys. This is what I learned on the Gary and Shannon Show this week. You're still not scheduling a News and bruise in Ventura, California. Why not? We got great breweries up here.
Some of them even have restaurants or pizza joints attached. We do need to get to Ventor from the ventur for News and bruise. Love you guys, Hope you had a great Fourth July and happy belated birthday, Shannon, goodbye. Thank you. You're absolutely right. We need to I don't think we've ever been up in Ventura have week. I don't not for one of those. We should do it, all right, So thank you for telling us what you learned this week on the Gary and Shannon. So we'll do it
again next Friday. What I learned is we add nothing to your lives. The other thing is we like to end our week with our nine news nuggets. You need to know them because there was so much going on in the campaign and Sacramento, in LA all over the place that some of these stories kind of fell through the cracks. But it's important, it is very important that we get these stories to you. These are the nine news nuggets you
need to know. Starting with our honorable mention. Honorable mention, not suppose are serving with you, honorable mode. So today we're holding auditions to become the newest member of honor Plemnation. Well, now I know how I can get my hands on a firearm without learning all the rules. This is the this is not the right way, this is not it seems I have confidence that you would pass the ten day waiting period background check. I feel like that's if you have to do it, do it the right way. Don't
this seems easier. Don't do what this guy did. A man is pleaded guilty in a scheme to steal one hundred and twenty three handguns by kidnapping the manager of the sporting goods store in Michigan. The crimes, if successful, would have flooded the streets of Benton Harbor and beyond with illegal firearms. This guy admitted that he and his brother handcuffed and blindfolded the manager of Benton Harbor's Dunham's Sports at the victim's home last November and forced him how to force him
to reveal how to disable the alarm at the store. And then this guy went to the store and stole two coolers, some sunglasses, and one hundred and twenty three guns. That's a fun weekend. You go out in the middle of the desert with all your guns, your coolers full of Core's light, and your sunglasses and that that's a good time. That's yes, But again I feel like you're you're misunderstanding the process of a firearm ownership. Like you you feel like your little due's gap. Do you have to take a
test like the written test at the DMV. Yes, huh. You have to get your federal firearms safety certificate, but a lot of it is I could get a fake one, like a fake ID. You should were I'm sure I should buy it on the internet. But there is a number they assign you a firearms safety certificate number three four, five, three seven one seven. Well, how hard is it to come up with a number that
looks easily forgible? It will? It is? Because they hand you a paper, you go get it laminated, basically exactly, keep it in your wallet or your purse. You didn't laminate that yourself. I did not. You don't have a laminator. I'm sorry. Did you think less of me now that I do not have that? Your face was very very well disappointed. I just feel like you could mention it to Michelle and it would be laminated within like thirty seconds. I don't want Michelle to laminate my firearms safety
certificate. Why I bet you she would. She has a laminator. I know she has a laminator. She's laminated all kinds of stuff that she didn't need to laminate. Number nine What nine oh nine? Number nine? I did nine places the cocks dirty nine times out of tennis. Partner's dirty too, and I speak nine languages, Act nine. Basically, everybody at table, nning, I feel ready to go another nine? And niner? Did I get you a niner? In there where you're calling from all walkie talkie?
The smug shot, what is it giving? It's giving fentanyl, It's giving heroin. It's given a lot of that stuff. Maybe a little bit of meth in there. The eyes wide open, they right, Maybe a thyroid disease. This guy in Lake Lady, Lake, Florida, Michael Fleming, walked into a Chase Bank branch last Saturday, filled out a withdrawal slip for the amount of one cent, and then provided it to the bank teller
at the window. The defendant was told he could not be given one penny, at which time he advised, so you want me to say the other word, and the bank teller, in fear that possible violence was imminent, called the cops. Yeah, well, you take one look at this guy and you know that something is imminent. It could be defecation, it could be masturbation, It could be violence or accombination of all three. Yeah. What I don't understand is why would the bank. Why could he not be
given one penny? Is that? Is that a policy that banks won't do anything for you in life? I think they just wanted him to leave. Well I could see that because he was obviously insane, and they wanted to minimize their face to face interactions with him, minimize the inst If you showed up and asked for a penny, I'm sure they'd give it to you, except not. Probably not in those shorts. What's wrong with these shorts? I can't wear shorts in a bank. Now, I'm just wow, Let's
get Richie back in here. He complimented my legs, he did specifically your calves. Well, that's the part he can see. Number eight just a piece of meat. A tive is bowled every eight second listening to eight different bosses drown on about mission statements. He Mount Tennessee woman a wanted woman specifically arrested after police found drugs in the taco bell wrappers and tortillas during a traffic stuff in Mount Jewelie. You got a bad place to hide your drugs.
Although if I'm a cop and i'm pulling someone over and I see a bunch of taco bell, I'm probably gonna grab some Taco Bell because it's delicious, and you can't look at taco bell without eating it. Yeah you can, although I can't really eat taco bell anymore. Oh, I'm sorry. Now you have a you have a sensitive constitution. Sometimes as we get older, foods don't agree with this as much as they used to. Do. You put that beefstick down like you were a seagull. I can't you tell me
that now you have a delicate GI tract. No, I find that hard to believe. The like a seagull a garb. Yeah, you went like this. That was the sound you made when that beefstick disappeared. Mount Juliet Police Department sat in a statement posted on the X that officers stopped a vehicle with the suspended license on I forty. Just let's Friday my face. You're the one who's looked like a seagull, they wrote. On Twitter. And by the way, whoever's doing pr and social media for the Mount Julia Police
Department, kudos, they wrote. Out of this world space car pulled over on Missouri Highway Company No. No. During the stop, they seized meth lsd THC and fentanyl laced gummies. Pills in marijuana. Mount Juliet police posted image of the drugs that were wrapped to look like burritos and they wrote, not your average taco bell order. That is a buffet of drugs. The thirty seven year old woman from Nashville was actually wanted in three different counties,
similar to what you might see on the Dukes of Hazzard. Her charges included failure to appear in court and Sumner County, drug possession in Rutherford County, failure to appear in Wilson County. So she's gonna go away for a while. Number seven, the seventh son of the seventh son we're on a seventh day, would have gone in a sec seventh seven eight seven years of college started drake seven seven seven days. I think these kinds of stories are funny,
but I have some. I have a fan fiction that I'd like to see at some point. Okay, in Cleveland, a suspect in an Ohio murder was mistakenly released from jail because of a clerical error, was picked up right away, but still the fact that they were they got out in the first place. Do you want your fan fiction to be like the real story of the woman who worked in the prison and was able to break free her lover. No, my fan fiction is someone like Andy Duframe is all innocent,
innocent man. Yes, that's true, so that probably doesn't. Let's say Andy did it and he knows that he has a price to pay and he's got to offer up his dues to society for the crime that he committed. And the guards come to him and they say, Deframe, you're getting out, and he says why, I don't know, but you're getting out.
And it turns out that the warden, instead of freeing Andy Dufrepney, misspelled it, and Andy Dufrepney was really the one who was supposed to be getting out, but in fact he put an s where the p was supposed to go. So Andy Dufrayne pronounced slightly different was the one who was going to be let go. And Andy Andy Duframe said, guys, I think you might want to check your paperwork. I'm not supposed to be getting out, and then they slammed the door shut and then they go back to the
warden and the warden is already into his cups. It's eleven thirty after all, right, And the warden says, oh, you're right. I guess you got to get Andy Dufrupney and get him out of here. And they said, and he says, how did you guys know that this wasn't right? And they said, Andy Dufrane told me. And then the warden sees what a good guy Andy Dufrayan is and lets him go anywhere. That's not
how the world works. What I would like is that White's fiction. What I would like is a shaw Shank redemption too, where it turns out Andy Dufrayne killed his wife and now he's free after going through the tunnel of feces and he's a freaking serial killer. Oh wow, boom, I know here's number six, Lord, she got six, number six. There's six more weeks of later picture of me a rabbi and six drunken longshore. Why are we just dick you in a nursing home closer to us? I don't have
to guy, stick down, drink another ship? You ever hear of a human ice cream cone? No? No, something on Kanye's new app that I need to watch out for. You're going to get in trouble. You are on the cliff of trouble. The cliff is called trouble cliff and you're dancing on the edge of it. Someone who's trying to break a record for the biggest human ice cream cone ever. Uh. Hundreds of people signed up to try to break this record. The goal is to group together for a
picture to look like an ice cream cone. Oh, I see so like it's one of those red rocket things like those. Uh, I know that's enough, You're not okay? An attempt to break the world record in the Barracks Row neighborhood in DC. What are those popsicle is called? Isn't it red rocket? The red, white and blue ones? Probably you get from an ice cream man. Yeah. They said it's hard to organize. And they said that anything we call a mass participation record, for example, the
official adjudicator for Guinness said, definitely presents its own challenge. You have to get everyone in place, get everyone following the rules, count them accurately. It's a big challenge to get every organizers, everybody organized. They said they thought that it was going to be good, but the problem is part of looking like an ice cream cone involved putting on ponchos. And we're talking about DC in July, so it's hot and humid, it's already patients melted away
faster inside that plastic bag. One person actually needed help from the paramedics because they were where ring a pun show to make matters worse, City organizers uh to move the lift used to take pictures from eighth in d streets, meaning the picture would be upside down. Then a tree got in the way, so people had to stand there as organizers try to figure out how to move
the cherry peck are closer to the street for a better shot. They are called rocket popsicles or bomb pop it pop. Yes, yeah, apparently there's a fascinating story behind those popsicles. I doubt it. Yeah, I just did a deep dive on it. It was first invented in nineteen fifty five by DS Abernathy and James Merritt for Kansas City, Missouri's Merit Foods. There's more. There's a lot more. Maybe on Monday. Here's number five five. We begin bomb minutes five. This is the year five point five five.
Give me a favorite. Loose five pounds immediately. This is a classic Florida man's story, isn't It's video of a man in Florida using an alligator to open a can of beer has gone viral on x It's a thirty second video shows a man on a boat using an alligator to open up the beer. Does not say what kind of beer? Uh no, but it tastes like alligators. That's a Darwin Award of the week. Well, had he lost his hand, yes, I mean it would be at least a nomination,
only a matter of time. What he did was he placed his hand into the water to get the attention of the gator, and then using the sharp teeth, he kind of banged it against the sharp teeth of the alligator, appears a hole in it, and then shotgun the beer. The other individuals on the boat could be seen celebrating. They said, of all of the Florida Man things I have seen, this might be the Florida Mannyist number four or Manade is probably on his fourth tranquilizer by now number four. This
isn't the same world as he left four years ago. This is great. This is a story of survival. Where do you think? Is this India? Right? This must be India? By her be Harr, a snake has bitten a man there in Behr by her. He bites the snake back twice. The snake dies. The man survives. He was thirty five full day's work, sits down to sleep, and the snake comes up and bites
him. Okay. He reacted by grabbing the snake and biting it back twice, believing the local myth that biting a snake back will save the victim, and in this case it may have. It is in parts of India common belief that when a snake bites a victim, the victim bites the reptile back and the venom transfers back into the snake. Hmm, I'll stay by the way. That's not how it hats, not how it works. The chances are, though, that you could, clearly, depending on how big the
snake is, you could bite through a snake. A snake's not going to bite you in half. You can look pretty tough, though, Uh, I don't know. I think the bones would be the bigger issue than the skiff. I think I'll stick to the chicken tika masla and not the Indian snake. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, thirty year old woman was swallowed hole by a python earlier this month. I'm not traveling anymore.

She calls police and said that he was threatening to
assault her, so he was detained for over an hour. If she's been arrested for calling the police to intervene on the date she didn't want to go to, just don't show up, Yeah, just don't. There's no you don't need to get the police involved. There's number two. What's going on? You two? There's two sons and no women ring. This is unfortunate. We told that lady just not to show up for the date. But
if she does. This guy, well, he failed to turn up on his wedding day and so the fiance, who was a doctor, cut off his penis. Ah Also in India in b Are, what is going on in b Are? There is something in the water. There is that Also where the kids have died from the brain eating amiba that's in the water. That might take some research. I don't know exactly what the location on that,
I'll do it. She claims she'd been in a relationship with this man over five years and since she was left seething with rage when he kept refusing to marry her. He finally decided to register at court marriage, but then did not show up on the wedding day, so she cut it off. And I think I know where she put it. Here's number one, weird number one, number one.
