    Trump Threatens Death Penalty for Guthrie Kidnapper & Did You Feel That Quake?

    Gary and Shannon kick off an early #WhatsHappening now that Hour 4 is gone, leading with President Trump threatening the death penalty for Nancy Guthrie's kidnapper. Plus, Shia LaBeouf got arrested, China's showcasing humanoid robots for the New Year, and Stephen Colbert had a take on government censorship. Then a 3.6 magnitude earthquake hits near Riverside County mid-show. SwampWatch covers US and Iran tensions at the coast, Russia and Ukraine talks going nowhere, Newsom comparing federal troops to Nazi secret police, Jesse Jackson's passing at 84, and continued Epstein file resignations. For #TrueCrimeTuesday, breaking news on the glove DNA in the Guthrie case and the latest on the ransom note writer, plus the Netflix trending show about Lucy Letby.

    Don't Buy Your Sex, Kids & Zuckerberg Faces the Music

    Gary and Shannon dig into the landmark California tech trial ahead of Zuckerberg taking the stand tomorrow. They revisit those grieving parents who confronted him on Capitol Hill thinking they'd made an impact, only for the product to get more addictive. Will Zuckerberg being a father himself make any difference this time? Then, Larchmont's quiet family streets have a prostitution problem, complete with used condoms and Shannon asking what hookers even wear in 2026. Gary updates on his "neighborhood militia" and Valley Glen residents fighting crime while getting pushback from local government. Plus, breaking news: the DNA-tested glove in the Nancy Guthrie case came back with no match in the CODIS system. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    A New Era Begins & Travel Is Now a Luxury

    Gary and Shannon kick off their brand new 3-hour show as Monks & Merrill take over the 12pm hour on KFI. They celebrate the new lineup but land on an odd coincidence: Tim Conway Jr. getting an hour and Jesse Jackson's passing, connecting it to Conway's long-running bit "What The Hell Did Jesse Jackson Say?” They play audio of talking with Reverend Jackson from over 10 years ago, including Gary asking him to give a "ding dong" for Tim Conway Jr. Then, the rainstorm aftermath with wild flooding images and another round expected Thursday. US and Iran tensions are escalating with questions about what President Trump might do next. Plus, travel is officially becoming a luxury as the average US hotel rate jumped from $100 to $162 in just five years, and Shannon says rough travel is a game for the youth.

    The Final Hour 4: 10 Years, One Last Ride

    Gary and Shannon close out their final Hour 4 ever as a ground stop hits LAX from thunderstorms. Gary reminds listeners about the 10 year anniversary party on Saturday March 7th, with registration open through the end of the week.  Shannon gives a heartfelt thank you to the audience that carried what was once the highest rated hour on KFI. Gary has AI write an obituary for the hour and it's scarily accurate from a minimal prompt, tying back to Matt Shumer's warning that AI is more revolutionary than we're ready for.  They squeeze in a belated #WhatsHappening with a shooting at a Rhode Island ice rink, new developments in the Nancy Guthrie case, a GoFundMe to crowdsource ransom money, RIP Robert Duvall, and an emergency Apple update you might need right now. Then listeners call in to share what the show has meant to them over the years. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    What Does "Mogged" Mean & Worrying About Aging Actually Ages You

    Shannon drops another Herbert Hoover fun fact before SwampWatch takes on Newsom's climate deal with the UK and the very important question of what's open on President's Day (spoiler: fast food is the #1 concern). Then Gary and Shannon dive into Gen Z and Gen Alpha slang as they try to figure out what "mogged" and "maxxing" means, and Elmer suggests "look maxxing" Gary's cheeks. The heaviest rain of the storm rolls in as iPhone warnings go off across SoCal. Plus, a #Wellness check on intermittent fasting, and a new study says worrying about your health as you age can actually make you age faster. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Robert Duvall Dead & Tornado Watch for SoCal

    Gary and Shannon keep the President's Day fun facts rolling with Herbert Hoover and George Washington, including why Washington refused any title but "Mr. President." Then breaking news hits: Robert Duvall has passed away. They also dig into the latest from the big tech trial with Zuckerberg set to testify tomorrow. A weather alert interrupts the show with strong thunderstorms headed for SoCal, wind gusts up to 55mph, and the possibility of a brief tornado from Long Beach northward. Plus, Shannon had a dream about her dental cleaning that she says is proof she needs to get out more, and the Olympics deliver weirdness including a condom shortage in the village and Jake Paul's fiancée winning speed skating gold.

    Shedding Hour 4 with the Snake & Southwest's "Stantion" Chaos

    Gary and Shannon open the show as a storm rolls through LA with evacuations set for 10am in the Palisades and Altadena burn scar areas. Then it gets emotional as they face the reality of losing their 12pm hour after 10 years and one month, with Monks & Merrill taking over tomorrow.  Shannon says Gary has to shed it with the snake as the Year of the Fire Horse begins tomorrow. She also recaps moments from Friday's funeral that caused her to miss the show. Plus, new developments in the Nancy Guthrie case with DNA results imminent, Gary's weekend movie marathon including Crime 101 and The Rip, Wuthering Heights dominating the box office, and Shannon's firsthand report on Southwest's new boarding system where nobody knows what a "stantion" is and everyone's still lining up like cattle.

    GAS Weekend Fix: There Is No F'ing President's Day in Radio!

    Gary & Shannon pull back the curtain on a pre-recorded Weekend Fix, kicking off with Gary's Ring camera distraction and a group text about neighborhood mailbox break-ins that leads to the question: what are you even stealing from USPS in 2026? Then, the big news: KFI is shaking up the schedule with a new 12p-3p show, Monks & Merrill. Shannon admits she doesn't know Merrill well, but vouches for the incredible Michael Monks, and they break down what it takes to go from reporter mode to full-on host mode (spoiler: it's exhausting). The schedule shift also means some beloved segments are on the chopping block. Whatcha Watchin' Wednesday, Strange Science, Motivational Monday... all under review. Plus, Gary's new Schitt's Creek journey, the possibility of News Nuggets moving to weekends, and their honest take on the communication (or lack thereof) around the announcement.
