Gary and Shannon

Gary and Shannon kick off the show reacting to Elmer’s brand-new “Godzilla” themed intro (let’s just say… the world might not be saved 😅). 
Then, they dive straight into Dodgers fever as LA celebrates back-to-back World Series championships: with parade coverage live from the packed downtown streets thanks to KFI’s own Michael Monks 🎉⚾️. 
Shannon shares her chaotic travel story from Nashville with the Chargers, including a 3-hour LAX ground delay that she says could be the first big sign of the ongoing government shutdown 🛬🇺🇸.

Then, it’s time for an express #SwampWatch as President Trump and Governor Newsom face tough interviews that reveal a lot more than expected.

Gary swears it’s for the role, but Shannon’s not so sure 😂. The hour kicks off with his upcoming theater debut (and questionable hair choices) before jumping into #WhatsHappening: the Dodgers’ record-breaking World Series ratings, AI-powered Coca-Cola ads, and how the Trump admin plans to fund SNAP benefits during the shutdown. 

Then it’s parade déjà vu at Dodger Stadium, a #GasFantasy4Play NFL recap, and a wild #MotivationalMonday rescue story from a 130-foot French ravine. They close out with tattoos, techy furniture, and a bed made for your phone 📱🛏️.
