It's been a tough couple of weeks for California. Mass shootings, floods and an earthquake. But there's very little sympathy toward California. Is it the actors job to make sure the gun is safe? The Oscar Nominations. Why who didn't get the nod gets more attention than those that did. And of course there's the potato chip incident.

So this sports guy has to fill in for the weather guy, he complains on air about it and whaddya know…the bit goes viral! He's all over the place, 32 million views, 26 interviews, he's a star!

And maybe his viral is contagious and we'll go viral too!

David Fury started out in comedy, so how did he end up writing and producing shows like “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, “24”, "Lost”, "911”, "Magnum P.I" and “Lethal Weapon”? And the other question you may have is: “why did we interview Ken's dear friend Laura Foy right before Hurricane Ian hit” and how that might have not been a great idea.

After a long hiatus, Gary and Kenny are back. And we brought Brad Hall with us. We talk about our time- off, love, death, pain, hernia's, death again, relationships, wing-foiling, more talk about death and then we play a game of “What did Kenny Do?”

Once again, Gary & Kenny go off-script because neither of them can memorize a script anymore.  But they did remember their time doing comedy specials at UCLA, San Quentin Prison and at Miramar Air Base,  home of the “Top Gun” pilots.  Also Gary tells about his role in the “Fantasticks” and Kenny tells about his barbecue with the cult family next door. It's the last show of the season so enjoy!

If you like to hear Gary & Kenny rattle on about how much better looking we are then old people used to be, the price of being a provocateur and hear Kenny's  Andy Warhol story.  If that's exactly what you're looking for, or possibly even close, this is the episode for you!

From living in his car and friends garages to becoming EP/Showrunner for the $100M “John Wick” prequel “The Continental” that is now filming in Budapest.

It's a fascinating, fun and revealing conversation with a special bonus of Kirk doing his impersonation of Kenny.

This week is a potpourri of topics that include pot and pourri. Kenny talks about his frightening day at the zoo, Gary on wine (literally), Gary shows off his announcer chops and other entertaining repartee.

At 5, Clark Gable took him on a horseback ride, his dad was head of Paramount Pictures.

He's the former President of the Academy of Motion Pictures and the Producers Guild of America. And we're talking to him right before the Oscars! A don't miss fascinating conversation on the Gary & Kenny Show!

He wrote for sitcoms Roseanne, Reba, Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place, Grace Under Fire and Last Man Standing. He hosted the game shows: Hold Everything, Love Connection and Card Sharks. Pat Bullard is funny, handsome and a helluva nice guy. Which makes it hard for the rest of us to compete.

We talk weather, weather women, tomato sauce, poaching salmon and other things that have no significant social benefit. That's the first half, the social benefit comes later when we interview writer/actress/cabaret performer Shelly Goldstein about her writing on sit-coms, award shows, and her run-ins with icons of show biz.
