Gary and Shannon celebrate 10 years of the show with a look back at the journey that brought them together, from their parallel paths growing up in Northern California and attending Chico State to both landing in Seattle years apart before finally uniting at KFI. They reflect on the doubters, the unwavering belief they had in each other, and the shared experiences that bonded them along the way, from political conventions and remote broadcasts to pushing through COVID on the air together. They revisit landmark stories like the Denise Huskins case and the Sherri Papini hoax, get honest about what drives each other crazy, and drop an exclusive announcement you won't want to miss.

Gary and Shannon open the final hour with #WhatsHappening, covering the biggest trending stories including the DOW breaking new records and the latest on Nancy Guthrie. Then Adam Gertler from Vesti stops by to talk about his food, where you can get it, and the Super Bowl rush keeping him busy. They close out the week with #WhatILearned and the Nine News Nuggets You Need to Know, featuring winter Olympians and penis enlargements, the President of South Sudan appointing a dead man to a government position, and a guy who called the cops just to brag about outrunning them, only to get arrested anyway.

Gary and Shannon kick off the hour with a jaw-dropping California Post piece exposing $8.6 billion in new SBA fraud uncovered in the state. Then they get pulled into a live car chase, and of course it's a Tesla, which sparks a debate about how hard they are to steal and a detour into Gary's white car interior and why Shannon thinks that's a terrible idea.
They break down the Wall Street Journal's list of TV shows that define America as part of its America 250 series. And with the Super Bowl on Sunday, they dig into the history of prop bets and the most entertaining ones you might win big on. Plus, Bad Bunny is generating buzz as a halftime performer, not because he's an unusual pick for football, but because the performance is going to be in Spanish. Also, what exactly is a Bad Bunny? Gary and Shannon have questions.

Gary and Shannon open the show with a behind-the-scenes look at the team that keeps everything running before diving into the Winter Olympics and the rhythm dance ice skating highlights so far. They also question how a 92-year-old ended up driving a car into a grocery store in Westwood. NewsNation Correspondent Nancy Loo joins to share the latest on the Nancy Guthrie missing persons case, including the demand letter and the looming Monday deadline. From there, they break down the launch of TrumpRx.gov and what it could mean for drug prices and accessibility.

Gary & Shannon tease tomorrow's Instagram Live announcement and debate whether Gary retired his signature phrase. #WhatsHappening covers the Nancy Guthrie case updates, Mayor Bass's allegedly doctored fire report, Beutner dropping out, and Caruso's possible mayoral run. Then: wine sales are tanking and the industry is fighting back against what they call a "neo-Prohibitionist" movement. Plus, #StrangeScience on why weed might actually be cognitively beneficial if you're middle-aged or older (and can have a healthy relationship with it).

Gary & Shannon kick off with Shannon bringing back sleeves and her weird Conway dream that has her questioning why she's always the responsible one (she insists she's the fun one).
Then they turn serious with NewsNation's Jennifer Coffindaffer on the latest in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping case. KFI's Michael Monks breaks down the LA Times bombshell alleging Mayor Bass watered down the Palisades Fire report, the history of "muckrakers," and why Bass's once-clear path to re-election is now a disaster.

Gary & Shannon open with the latest developments in the case involving Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother, Nancy, as conflicting reports and a lack of clear information raise new questions. Shannon speculates whether the alleged ransom note was sent to TMZ for publicity and what the references to medication could really mean. The hour also includes a lighter tease of a “fun time” announcement coming to Instagram, a remarkable story about an 82-year-old breaking ultramarathon records, and a discussion about pressure mounting on the LA 28 Olympics chair amid Epstein-related scrutiny. They close with a harrowing story of a mother forced to make an impossible decision after being swept out to sea with her children.

Gary & Shannon break down the highlights and frustrations from last night’s debate, including technical issues, standout moments, and why some candidates came off more serious than others. They react to debate audio, shifts in prediction market odds, and the candidates’ long-winded answers on California’s high-speed rail. The hour also includes a tease for an upcoming Instagram “fun time,” a look at how carry-on luggage became the norm in air travel, and a candid conversation about “placeholder partners” — why some people stay in relationships that go nowhere and how long is too long to wait.
