(00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you'relistening to the Conway Show on demand on
the iHeartRadio app. So it's Mayfirst, it's May Day, and a
lot of people don't know this,but the reason why we have an eight
hour workday, it's because of laborunions. They were revolting and said we
can't work ten, twelve, fourteen, eighteen hour days, and they established
(00:24):
the eight hour workday. So ifyou were if you work an eight hour
workday and then you get over time, that's thanks to labor union that said
enough. But these long days,long ass days. A brief history of
what May Day is, because there'sa march going on in Hollywood right now
that's celebrating May Day, and mostof the world celebrates May Day. A
(00:46):
lot of countries have the day off. The only countries that don't celebrate have
no national movement and no national recognitionfor May Day. United States, Canada,
England or Great Britain, Ireland,Scotland, Japan and Australia and New
Zealand everybody else public holiday or bigmarches and big movement. Four May Day.
(01:14):
Well, let's find out what isexactly May Day? Tim what is
it for millions of workers around theworld, the first of May is their
day. In the late nineteenth century, American labor unions were fed up ya
fed up with people worked in dangerousconditions and with little pay. So in
eighteen eighty four, the Federation ofOrganized Trades in Labor Unions met in Chicago
(01:36):
and had one major demand, aneight hour workday, and on May first,
eighteen eighty six, over three hundredthousand American workers went on strike.
Three days later, thousands of strikersmet in Haymarket Square, where a ride
broke out between cops and workers.A bomb was thrown into the crowd,
killing several people. It was calledthe Haymarket massacre. And today May first
(02:00):
is known as International Workers Day.Well, every country's workers have a different
history behind May Day. They allcommemorate those who have and continue to give
their lives for workers justice. Thereyou go, that's maybe May bronc you
by KFI May Day. So alot of people don't really know what it
is. It's where we got aneight hour workday. There's a big march
(02:22):
in Hollywood going on right now onHollywood Bolevard near Highland. Big big to
do a lot of streets blocked alot of traffic in that area, So
try to avoid that area if possible. And UCLA, from what Krozier and
I think Chris Adler had just reportedthat cop, there's gonna be a lot
more cops there tonight than they werelast night, So it may not be
(02:43):
as wild as it was last night. But I guarantee you you'll have all
the news stations at UCLA, includingKFI, following this. There's a big
story. It's bigger than USC now. USC brought the cops in, they
squashed the the protests, the sitin the tents, the whole run,
and they've removed a lot of thosepeople from the USC campus. And USC
(03:07):
has an advantage because USC is aprivate college. It is private property.
You cannot just walk onto USC unlessyou have permission. It is a private
piece of property. UCLA is not. We pay for it with our taxes,
and it is open to the publicfor the most part, and you
(03:29):
can walk through and enjoy yourself.But you better behave tonight at UCLA because
there will be some cops and therewill be some ratifications, there'll be some
problems. If you get out ofcontrol, you'll most likely be arrested and
be cool in your heels somewhere witha lot of other protesters. So it's
(03:50):
up to you. It's up toyou whether you get crazy tonight. But
that's a big story going on atUCLA and USC. As we approach the
USC graduation, we'll have to findout what they do there. Seemed to
be canceling the graduation, or atleast the big one. They'll have smaller
graduations, but the big one thatis famously attended by sixty seventy thousand people
(04:13):
will not be happening this year,and so that's going to be a big
story later on. This month aswell, we had the earthquake that happened
shortly before two pm. Maybe youlive in Corona, you're sort of rattled
by it. That's the home ofthat earthquake. Four point three originally downgraded
to four point one, still prettysizey, and it only happened a mile
(04:33):
below the surface. That's pretty shallow. A lot of these earthquakes happened ten,
fifteen, twenty miles below the surface. This one happened fairly shallow.
I know, a mile is alot, you know, fifty three fifty
four hundred feet below the surface,I know, it seems like a lot
in earthquakes. Pretty shallow, prettyshallow. So that's a big story going
(04:58):
on. The earthquake. Hollywood Boulevardshut down because protests and UCLA and USC
so a lot of things going on, a lot of things happening here on
a Monday. Pretty wild for aMonday. Usually it's uh, you know,
casual Mondays around here Monday. Yeah, right, but no, no,
no, no, no, it'sgetting all crazy Hollywood Boulevard. The
(05:18):
march continues there. Let's find outwhat's going on in Hollywood Boulevard. You
are at the intersection of SATs ata gower at the march start several minutes.
This is an early report, butstill there are a lot of people
out there. Go all the wayup gower. The goal is to make
it to Hollywood a Highlands. We'rerally later this afternoon. The message today
(05:39):
is the workers want they puts wagesso they can afford to pay the rent.
Before this afternoon's rally in March,Labor Group's meant to talk about a
measure on the November ballot. Itaffects many of their union members. The
ballot measure they're pushing voters to passis the Justice for Renters Act. If
passed, it would remove California's banon rent control working out contracts to make
(06:02):
sure that they make enough money toafford an apartment. The cost of rent
is outpacing these wages, so evenwhen you get a wage increase, it's
typically eaten up by rent increases.According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics,
in twenty twenty three, there weretwo million, five hundred and fourteen
(06:25):
thousand union workers in California. Wait, how many? There were two million,
five hundred and fourteen thousand union workersin Califora, the lover two million
in twenty twenty four. Labor unionsare saying, even with minimum wage increases
going into effect in twenty twenty fourto around twenty bucks an hour, it's
still barely enough to pay rent andput food on the table. Well thousands
(06:46):
of people, many of whom arestudents in our schools, are facing the
uncertainty of whether they can pay rent, the uncertainty of whether they will remain
housed, and are fearful of facingeviction. Every Okay, it is very
expensive, very very expensive to payrent and to get by in southern California.
(07:09):
But here's a new way you canmake money. If you're good at
arcade games already. You can goto Dave and Busters and play all sorts
of cool arcade games, like youknow, the basketball Hotshots game or ski
ball, something I was really goodat as a kid. Well, yeah,
I'd like to see proof of thatmyself. Well, now, Dave
and Busters is preparing to allow peopleto place what it calls friendly wagers up
(07:33):
to say five bucks via the Daveand Busters app. In other words,
you'd be able to gamble on yourski ball as opposed to just getting tickets
or just enjoying the game. Oh, this is made for me, gambling
on ski ball and the arcade games. This is a big move for Dave
and Busters because we know from studiesthat gambling makes people spend more and become
(07:56):
more loyal. Think of it asslot machines for ski balls, sort of
dynamic that you see out in thecasinos. At this point, while they're
saying that this is just a friendlyway of making things a little more exciting,
a little bit more spicy for thepeople who come. All right,
you can gamble at Dave and Bussers, all right, A lot of big
stories here happening on this Monday,May, on Monday Wednesday and May first
(08:18):
Wednesday, May first Wednesday, Mayfirst. Crazy. You're listening to Tim
Conway Junior on demand from KFI AMsix forty. All right, let's find
out what's going on at UCLA.This report just came in. This is
fresh. Find out what's happening inUCLA. It's a big story. You
(08:39):
know. Another big story that nobody'stalking about is how cold it's going to
be in southern California this weekend.This will be the first weekend of May.
The Kentucky Derby is this Saturday.It's a big day for me at
the household, and it's usually hot. Oh yeah, huge, huge.
Everybody leaves, then everybody leaves mealone. On Kentucky Derby Saturday, I
(09:01):
wander out to Santa Anita, makemy bets, you know, the precursor
to a miserable afternoon. And thenI just wallow and sit in my filth
and stupid picks, and I comehome smell like cigarettes and mustard. Nice,
so nice treat for the family.Waste their money and smell like cigarettes,
(09:24):
pretzels and beer. It's crowded atSenaid on Kentucky der Oh yeah,
yeah, you can bet it,crows. You can bet it now on
TVG. You can make your betsright now. It's open. All right,
let's find out what's going on.You c l A UCLA fight,
fight, fight, I guess,fist fights, pepper spray and smoke.
That's what students saw here on campusovernight. They now say that they are
(09:46):
terrified for their safety. And ABCNews has learned that the reason why it
wasn't stopped sooner was because UCLA policethought that they had it under control,
but ah, they didn't. Thisis Sophie Flay by the way, with
Channel seven. ABC News thought thatthey had it under control, but they
quickly became overwhelmed. Dave responded fasterlike noise complaints at apartment parties like uspd
(10:07):
was completely hands off the hired policeforce that they were just standing around.
Overnight, violence breaks out on UCLA'scampus as protesters clash while police let it
go on for hours. Yeah,but if the cops show up, the
story would be the cops are heavyhanded, The cops are, you know,
wiping people out f the cops.If they don't show up, the
(10:28):
cops didn't show up f the cops. They can't win either way. They
can't win. Fireworks want to be. The timeline of events shows the chaos
beginning at around eleven PM. Yeah, I saw that right eleven. They
blew out the rest of the newscast, like from eleven ten to eleven thirty.
And then man, it blew upout there last night at UCLA with
fireworks shooting off of the encampment outsideRoyce Hall. Anyone anywhere, at any
(10:52):
time. It's just entering campus andput fireworks and doing all of these things.
It's just creating such an unsafe environment, and it makes all the events
fail extremely unsafe. Just before twelvethirty, wooden barricades are stolen, fist
fights break out, and smoke isreleased into the crowd. It's unclear how
many of the people involved their students. No campus police are seen stepping in.
By one point thirty, you cansee an attempt is made to stop
(11:15):
the brawl by a man in aT shirt, but no police are seen.
A tweet at one forty seven amfrom Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass reads
the violence unfolding this evening at UCLAis absolutely abhorrent and inexcusable LAPD has arrived
on campus, but around two twentypolice dressed in tactical gear are seen just
standing on the outskirts as fights continueto break out on the lawn, more
(11:35):
than three hours after the attacks oncampus began. Please start breaking up the
fights, moving folks away from theencampment. A statement from the school's vice
chancellor late last night reads, horrificacts of violence occurred at the encampment and
we immediately called law enforcement from MutualAid. I worry for the safety of
surrounding areas. Just before five inthe morning is when campus officers are seen
wrapping up, and by six am, the large encampment seems to be quiet.
(11:56):
Everyone's unsure, like is there goingto be cost tomorrow? A lot
of people have midterms right now too, And you see President Michael Drake midterms,
midterms, midterms and what kind ofa schedule season? Midterms? Interesting?
Smorrow? Like a lot of peoplehave midterms right now too, And
you see President Michael Drake says hisoffice is now conducting an independent external review
(12:18):
of how the university handled the eventslast night. Yeah, Sophie Flay,
one of the best reporters over there, Channel seven as as the you know,
the newer reporters come in and theyfire the older crew, and that'll
happen around here, crows, youknow that, right, Yeah, young
kids will come in and replace us, and we'll get all pissed and angry
(12:39):
and we'll move on at some point. All right, LAPD standing by for
tonight and the mischief that may happenat UCLA. When we come back,
we'll talk about that big to dosat UCLA. And also the Mayday Rally
march is still going on in Hollywood, and it's going to be really chilly
this week can it's going to besixty five degrees in Burbank on Saturday,
(13:05):
sixty five or sixty six degrees onSunday. Wow, So this Saturday and

No, Okay, I bet Gendoesn't it an accent. We'll find out.
I'm gonna put some stuff on socialmedia. That's great. You're listening
(14:09):
to Tim Conway Junior on DEMYA fromKFI AM six forty. Let's go right
to Chris Adler. Who's that yousee la in the midst of all this
mayhem here on Wednesday May first?Chris Adler, how you hate Tim?
I'm good. It's may Day,may Day, may Day. It's wild
out there, Hans. It stillsmell like tear gas and Robert bullets.
(14:33):
No, you know what, butI've got my pepper spray out here just
in case. I saw one ofthe reporters last night that was reporting during
in the midst of all that shegot sprayed with pepper spray and had to
go off the air because of it. So I am prepared. I'm prepared.
But right now, Tim, it'sI'm seeing a lot of police roll
in from Beverly Hills PD, SantaMonica, PEDIA, We've got c HP,
(14:54):
we have LAPD, lots of LAPDhere and they just keep coming in
and droves and they're walking onto campspans. One thing, I'm not seeing
tactical gear though, I'm not seeingtactical gear. I did hear you talking
about Chris Christy above. I waswatching him circle above and he's right.
They are very organized. I heardthe protesters talking today. They were saying
they've got new rules, they're notgoing to back down, and they were
(15:16):
using power tools, Tim, tosecure those pieces of plywood they have are
that they're barricaded behind. Yeah,they needed they needed a structural engineer out
there last night. I didn't seethat the craftsmanship going into building that wall
was a plus. Well, itwas very flimsy, and those pieces kept
(15:37):
getting blown over by I watched multipletimes as those big pieces of wood were
blown over by the wind. Andnow they've they've got zip ties that they're
using zip ties to secure pieces ofwood, other pieces of fencing all together,
tying it all together. It lookspretty secure from my angle now,
(15:58):
but it was not last night whenit was breached by those pro Palestinian I'm
sorry by the pro Israeli counter protesterswho attacked the camp last night, but
they they were reinforcing that all dayto day, Tim Noll, you know
what and when do they get Whenis USLA finally gonna say let's clear everything
out and go back to just youknow, students and books. Well,
(16:19):
that's the question. So I heardthe protesters saying they're trying to force us
out. They're trying to force usout before we can we can, you
know, we can stand up forthis mission. They're trying to force us
out. And I've been reaching outto UCLA to get an answer. I've
been reaching out and talking to campusPD. Nobody seems to have an answer.
I've talked to LAPD. I said, hey, what's the plan?
(16:41):
How long you know the campus.The university has now deemed this an unlawful
camp site. They are forced out. They're supposed to be leaving and dismantling.
They're not doing that. So atwhat point will the university let LAPD
and other officers roll in? Willthey be arrested like we saw at USC.
It's going to happen. But Iwill tell you this, the protesters
(17:02):
are not planning to back down.They've actually been taking martial arts lessons from
within the camp, preparing for anencounter with the police. And it sounds
like tonight they may be waiting forthat and planning that. Again, huge
police presence here, but I don'tsee tactical gear, so it's not clear
(17:22):
tim if they're going to move in. All right, now, what's your
plan? Chris? Are you outthere for the night? You done at
six? What's your night? Like? Well? I, you know,
I'm supposed to be here until seven, but I just have a feeling and
just looking around that you know,I'm watching the police. One officer was
setting up a staging point over here. Just have a feeling that something's gonna
go down tonight, So I maybe here tonight. Yeah, all right,
(17:47):
we'll check back with you. Reallyappreciate you going out there and that
crazy. Absolutely all right, ThanksTim, all right, Chris Adler,
everybody KFI reporter there on the scene. If anything shakes down tonight, we
will have that live for you.It's wild out there, man, oh
man, it's wild. Chris Christywas flying over the sky overhead. Let's
(18:07):
find out what he had to say. This is an update. He flew
over a little after three o'clock andthen this is the latest report Channel seven
high in the sky over UCLs.You just get a sick feeling in the
pit of your stomach that we mightbe in for something of a repeat.
We have been watching that resupply missionthat Josh was just talking about all night
long. You can see various tentsdedicated to various equipment that has been resupplied
(18:32):
here by various students walking in herewith fresh flows of helmets, paint,
umbrellas, a stockpile of plywood,and all kinds of personal protection equipment,
including gas masks. They are readyfor a confrontation and they are gearing up
in a very organized fashion. Itis a surreal site. What is already
a very heavily vandalized quad in frontof Royce Hall. Here you could see
(18:56):
several hundred pro Palestinians in the middleof that encampment. Opposite them is a
whole line, unlike last night,a whole line of sheriff deputies, California
Highway patrolmen and additional law enforcement resourcesthat are waiting in the wings for whatever
is about to go down tonight,reporting live MAAR seven h D all Right,
(19:18):
Chris Christy, Channel seven high inthe sky over UCLA and tonight there
might be another repeat. They're goingto try to stop it. The cops
are going to try to stop it, but who knows. Who knows.
When you're gearing up and you've gottear gas and masks and clubs and umbrellas
and food and all kinds of things, it looks like they are gearing up
(19:41):
for another night of craziness. Sowe will keep on top of it and
find out exactly how it's going toshake down. This just came in from
LAPD superintendent on UCLA protest here Westwood. Last night. The Los Angeles Police
Department, as well as several othersstate and local law enforcement agencies, responded
(20:03):
to the UCLA campus. UCLA requestedmutual aid after reports of violent clashes between
protesters, and once mutual aid andresources were formed and coordinated, they separated
the two groups. No arrests weremade, no force was used, no
officers were injured. Los Angeles PoliceDepartment, along with other local law enforcement
(20:27):
agencies, will remain in the areato ensure public safety until the situation is
resolved. All right, Well,we'll find out what's going on tonight,
but stay with your KFI. Staywith KFI. We're gonna bring it.
Chris ad will be out there andwe'll bring you updates all night long.
What happens out at UCLA. Whata day? You're listening to Tim Conway
(20:52):
Junior on demand from KFI AM sixforty. All right, a lot of
news going on. We got theMay Day rally going on in Hollywood,
Angel Martinez and Micha O'Brien all overthat event. And then we have UCLA
was on fire last night, andChris Christy, very knowledgeable pilot slash or
(21:17):
reporter for Channel seven, he thinksthere might be some shenannigans going on tonight.
Both sides are gearing up for that, so we're on top of that.
There was an earthquake in Corona.We followed that. It woke me
up. I happy to be sleeping, you know, and I woke my
ass up and I like that.And then Chris Adler, who's out at
UCLA, said, there's a lotof cops tonight. That'll be the difference
(21:41):
between last night and tonight at UCLA. And it's going to be very cold
this weekend, unseasonably chilli in southernCalifornia, which is a great, great
temperature and a great weekend for theBeach Life Festival. It'll be happening this
weekend at Redondo Beach and from Bello. From what you understand, and I'm
(22:04):
not putting words in your mouth,they've set up some beautiful stages and this
is a beautiful event. Coming fromDave Weice, who is our marketing director.
He hates everything right. He's atough critic. He has very high
expectations and he is involved in allof our events and all of our setups.
He said to me, he goes, this is spectacular. It's got

Anyway, it's going to be abeautiful event, and that comes from
somebody that has very high standards.Wow. All right, So that's this
weekend the Beach Life Festival May third, fourth, and fifth at Redondo on
(22:52):
the Beach and our own Nil Sevadra, the Fork Reporter, will be doing
the Fork Report live on Saturday fromtwo to five pm. Could be a
big fent, big deal. Allright. We have bad news here for
La County Fire Department. They werewoken up late last night early this morning
to a fire. And anytime somebodyknocks on the door and says, hey,
(23:15):
there's a fire, the first questionyou have is where where's the fire?
And they said, well, it'sinside the firehouse. Oh which one?
The one you're sleeping in? Whatfirefighters usually get calls in the middle
of the night about fires in otherlocations, but it is a very rare
case to see flames erupting in theirown station. Well, take a look.
(23:37):
This is the damage that we're seeingthis morning. It's a tough scene
out here. We're seeing fire truckscompletely destroyed, the hundreds of thousands of
dollars of damage inside their own firehouse. How'd this happen? Completely destroyed?
The roof collapse on one of theengines. A lot of debris here.
The walls the flooring of this holdinghave been blackened, and there are inspects
(24:02):
here taking a look at the station. The good news is no one was
hurt. Good flames erupt at fouram Wednesday morning. Nine firefighters at Station
one sixty four waking up to smokeand a passerby banging on the door.
Wow, what a night was this? The Westlake area believe this chaotic video
(24:23):
taken by someone who lives behind thestation in Huntington Park. Yeah, Huntington
Park, west Lake area. Itstarted on the apparatus floor. La County
Fire says the cause is under investigation, but might have started with a fire
engine. More units were called tohelp with the second alarm fire, but
the flames had already wreaked havoc.Yeah, the fire very rarely starts in
(24:45):
a fire engine in a firehouse.This is rare, so rare that I
don't ever remember it ever happening,and I you know, I'm well or
my thirties. I don't ever rememberthis happening. One hundred foot aerial ladder
truck that was lost. Oh that'smillions, that's at least a million dollars
right there. One hundred foot aerialladder truck that was lost, an engine
(25:07):
fire engine that was lost. Ohanother half million, probably well over two
million dollars worth of damage to thisfirehouse and the equipment. We had our
battalion Chiefs suburban that was lost.Oh no, they let the Chiefs car
burn. I love tells you whatcar it was. Its suburban. It's
the Chiefs suburban, the Chiefs.That's La County chief suburban. We had
(25:30):
our battalion Chiefs suburban that was lost, and our paramedic squad that was all
total losses. The fire was knockeddown a little after an hour. LA
County Supervisor Janis hunh You know what'sreally tough is when those firefighters realized they
needed help to put it out,to call other fire stations, go hey,
can you guys send somebody over?Yeah, where's the fire? Turn
(25:52):
around? It's our station? Wasthat our station? Wait? Wait?
Wait, what'd you say? Ourstation on fire? Get over here.
La County Supervisor Janis Hahn came tosurvey the scene this morning. It reminds
me of a story my uncle,Jerry Dalton, is a volunteer firefighter in
a place called Erio, Ontario,which is about an hour and a half
(26:15):
north northeast of Windsor or Detroit,and a very small community. Everybody in
that on that peninsula knows each other. It's due north of Cleveland, Ohio,
across the Lake Erie, on theLake Erie Shore. A few geography
nuts out there, and he waswoking up. He's a volunteer fireman,
woking up. I ran to thefirehouse and got to the firehouse and said,
(26:41):
Hey, where's the fire And theysaid, I your house. Because
what do you mean, Because,yeah, you left too quickly. The
back of your house, the garagein the back of your house is on
fire. I didn't know that's atrue story. May flip a U turn.
Yeah. He gets all the wayout of the fire station, they
tell him it's a fires at yourhouse, Bob. It's devastating to see
(27:03):
it. The rigs, the engines, the flooring, the roof, it's
all completely destroyed. Thankfully, noone was injured, but the firefighters are
still dealing with the emotional aftermath.Well, most of our fire stations are
like second homes to our firefighters,so it's really tough. And these guys
gonna been killed. You know,when you're sleeping in the firehouse, you're
sound asleep, baby, out ofyour plugs on, I don't know,
(27:26):
and all of a sudden somebody knockson your door and your station's on fire.
For them to lose something so dearand so close in personal to them,
Huntington Park Mayor Karina Massias says thebuilding has history in the city,
used to be an original Hingo Parkof fire station when Hening Park had their
own fire department and eventually became acounty station. Our firefighters have given back
(27:48):
a lot to the community, sowe definitely are here to get back to
them now and in this situation,now back out here a lot. The
investigation into the cause continues. Thegood news is the building is not a
total loss, can be renovated andremodeled and used once again. And La
County Fire also tells us they foundthat passer by who knocked on the door
and alerted the firefighters to those flamesthis morning, and what they do.
(28:11):
I just found the guy. AndLa County Fire also tells us they found
that passer by all right, andwho knocked on the door and alerted the
firefighters and they give them a treat, they give money, they give them
a reward to those flames this morning. No information on that. Mmmmmm all
right. A lot of big storieshappening, man, I can't believe how
(28:33):
crazy this Wednesday is May Day inLos Angeles, and we're following all of
it right here for you. ConwayShow. We're live Crazy Wednesday on KFI
AM six forty Conway Show, ondemand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you
can always hear us live on KFIAM six forty four to seven pm Monday
through Friday, and anytime on demandon the iHeartRadio app
It's KFI AM six forty and you'relistening to the Conway Show on demand on
the iHeartRadio app. So it's Mayfirst, it's May Day, and a
lot of people don't know this,but the reason why we have an eight
hour workday, it's because of laborunions. They were revolting and said we
can't work ten, twelve, fourteen, eighteen hour days, and they established
(00:24):
the eight hour workday. So ifyou were if you work an eight hour
workday and then you get over time, that's thanks to labor union that said
enough. But these long days,long ass days. A brief history of
what May Day is, because there'sa march going on in Hollywood right now
that's celebrating May Day, and mostof the world celebrates May Day. A
(00:46):
lot of countries have the day off. The only countries that don't celebrate have
no national movement and no national recognitionfor May Day. United States, Canada,
England or Great Britain, Ireland,Scotland, Japan and Australia and New
Zealand everybody else public holiday or bigmarches and big movement. Four May Day.
(01:14):
Well, let's find out what isexactly May Day? Tim what is
it for millions of workers around theworld, the first of May is their
day. In the late nineteenth century, American labor unions were fed up ya
fed up with people worked in dangerousconditions and with little pay. So in
eighteen eighty four, the Federation ofOrganized Trades in Labor Unions met in Chicago
(01:36):
and had one major demand, aneight hour workday, and on May first,
eighteen eighty six, over three hundredthousand American workers went on strike.
Three days later, thousands of strikersmet in Haymarket Square, where a ride
broke out between cops and workers.A bomb was thrown into the crowd,
killing several people. It was calledthe Haymarket massacre. And today May first
(02:00):
is known as International Workers Day.Well, every country's workers have a different
history behind May Day. They allcommemorate those who have and continue to give
their lives for workers justice. Thereyou go, that's maybe May bronc you
by KFI May Day. So alot of people don't really know what it
is. It's where we got aneight hour workday. There's a big march
(02:22):
in Hollywood going on right now onHollywood Bolevard near Highland. Big big to
do a lot of streets blocked alot of traffic in that area, So
try to avoid that area if possible. And UCLA, from what Krozier and
I think Chris Adler had just reportedthat cop, there's gonna be a lot
more cops there tonight than they werelast night, So it may not be
(02:43):
as wild as it was last night. But I guarantee you you'll have all
the news stations at UCLA, includingKFI, following this. There's a big
story. It's bigger than USC now. USC brought the cops in, they
squashed the the protests, the sitin the tents, the whole run,
and they've removed a lot of thosepeople from the USC campus. And USC
(03:07):
has an advantage because USC is aprivate college. It is private property.
You cannot just walk onto USC unlessyou have permission. It is a private
piece of property. UCLA is not. We pay for it with our taxes,
and it is open to the publicfor the most part, and you
(03:29):
can walk through and enjoy yourself.But you better behave tonight at UCLA because
there will be some cops and therewill be some ratifications, there'll be some
problems. If you get out ofcontrol, you'll most likely be arrested and
be cool in your heels somewhere witha lot of other protesters. So it's
(03:50):
up to you. It's up toyou whether you get crazy tonight. But
that's a big story going on atUCLA and USC. As we approach the
USC graduation, we'll have to findout what they do there. Seemed to
be canceling the graduation, or atleast the big one. They'll have smaller
graduations, but the big one thatis famously attended by sixty seventy thousand people
(04:13):
will not be happening this year,and so that's going to be a big
story later on. This month aswell, we had the earthquake that happened
shortly before two pm. Maybe youlive in Corona, you're sort of rattled
by it. That's the home ofthat earthquake. Four point three originally downgraded
to four point one, still prettysizey, and it only happened a mile
(04:33):
below the surface. That's pretty shallow. A lot of these earthquakes happened ten,
fifteen, twenty miles below the surface. This one happened fairly shallow.
I know, a mile is alot, you know, fifty three fifty
four hundred feet below the surface,I know, it seems like a lot
in earthquakes. Pretty shallow, prettyshallow. So that's a big story going
(04:58):
on. The earthquake. Hollywood Boulevardshut down because protests and UCLA and USC
so a lot of things going on, a lot of things happening here on
a Monday. Pretty wild for aMonday. Usually it's uh, you know,
casual Mondays around here Monday. Yeah, right, but no, no,
no, no, no, it'sgetting all crazy Hollywood Boulevard. The
(05:18):
march continues there. Let's find outwhat's going on in Hollywood Boulevard. You
are at the intersection of SATs ata gower at the march start several minutes.
This is an early report, butstill there are a lot of people
out there. Go all the wayup gower. The goal is to make
it to Hollywood a Highlands. We'rerally later this afternoon. The message today
(05:39):
is the workers want they puts wagesso they can afford to pay the rent.
Before this afternoon's rally in March,Labor Group's meant to talk about a
measure on the November ballot. Itaffects many of their union members. The
ballot measure they're pushing voters to passis the Justice for Renters Act. If
passed, it would remove California's banon rent control working out contracts to make
(06:02):
sure that they make enough money toafford an apartment. The cost of rent
is outpacing these wages, so evenwhen you get a wage increase, it's
typically eaten up by rent increases.According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics,
in twenty twenty three, there weretwo million, five hundred and fourteen
(06:25):
thousand union workers in California. Wait, how many? There were two million,
five hundred and fourteen thousand union workersin Califora, the lover two million
in twenty twenty four. Labor unionsare saying, even with minimum wage increases
going into effect in twenty twenty fourto around twenty bucks an hour, it's
still barely enough to pay rent andput food on the table. Well thousands
(06:46):
of people, many of whom arestudents in our schools, are facing the
uncertainty of whether they can pay rent, the uncertainty of whether they will remain
housed, and are fearful of facingeviction. Every Okay, it is very
expensive, very very expensive to payrent and to get by in southern California.
(07:09):
But here's a new way you canmake money. If you're good at
arcade games already. You can goto Dave and Busters and play all sorts
of cool arcade games, like youknow, the basketball Hotshots game or ski
ball, something I was really goodat as a kid. Well, yeah,
I'd like to see proof of thatmyself. Well, now, Dave
and Busters is preparing to allow peopleto place what it calls friendly wagers up
(07:33):
to say five bucks via the Daveand Busters app. In other words,
you'd be able to gamble on yourski ball as opposed to just getting tickets
or just enjoying the game. Oh, this is made for me, gambling
on ski ball and the arcade games. This is a big move for Dave
and Busters because we know from studiesthat gambling makes people spend more and become
(07:56):
more loyal. Think of it asslot machines for ski balls, sort of
dynamic that you see out in thecasinos. At this point, while they're
saying that this is just a friendlyway of making things a little more exciting,
a little bit more spicy for thepeople who come. All right,
you can gamble at Dave and Bussers, all right, A lot of big
stories here happening on this Monday,May, on Monday Wednesday and May first
(08:18):
Wednesday, May first Wednesday, Mayfirst. Crazy. You're listening to Tim
Conway Junior on demand from KFI AMsix forty. All right, let's find
out what's going on at UCLA.This report just came in. This is
fresh. Find out what's happening inUCLA. It's a big story. You
(08:39):
know. Another big story that nobody'stalking about is how cold it's going to
be in southern California this weekend.This will be the first weekend of May.
The Kentucky Derby is this Saturday.It's a big day for me at
the household, and it's usually hot. Oh yeah, huge, huge.
Everybody leaves, then everybody leaves mealone. On Kentucky Derby Saturday, I
(09:01):
wander out to Santa Anita, makemy bets, you know, the precursor
to a miserable afternoon. And thenI just wallow and sit in my filth
and stupid picks, and I comehome smell like cigarettes and mustard. Nice,
so nice treat for the family.Waste their money and smell like cigarettes,
(09:24):
pretzels and beer. It's crowded atSenaid on Kentucky der Oh yeah,
yeah, you can bet it,crows. You can bet it now on
TVG. You can make your betsright now. It's open. All right,
let's find out what's going on.You c l A UCLA fight,
fight, fight, I guess,fist fights, pepper spray and smoke.
That's what students saw here on campusovernight. They now say that they are
(09:46):
terrified for their safety. And ABCNews has learned that the reason why it
wasn't stopped sooner was because UCLA policethought that they had it under control,
but ah, they didn't. Thisis Sophie Flay by the way, with
Channel seven. ABC News thought thatthey had it under control, but they
quickly became overwhelmed. Dave responded fasterlike noise complaints at apartment parties like uspd
(10:07):
was completely hands off the hired policeforce that they were just standing around.
Overnight, violence breaks out on UCLA'scampus as protesters clash while police let it
go on for hours. Yeah,but if the cops show up, the
story would be the cops are heavyhanded, The cops are, you know,
wiping people out f the cops.If they don't show up, the
(10:28):
cops didn't show up f the cops. They can't win either way. They
can't win. Fireworks want to be. The timeline of events shows the chaos
beginning at around eleven PM. Yeah, I saw that right eleven. They
blew out the rest of the newscast, like from eleven ten to eleven thirty.
And then man, it blew upout there last night at UCLA with
fireworks shooting off of the encampment outsideRoyce Hall. Anyone anywhere, at any
(10:52):
time. It's just entering campus andput fireworks and doing all of these things.
It's just creating such an unsafe environment, and it makes all the events
fail extremely unsafe. Just before twelvethirty, wooden barricades are stolen, fist
fights break out, and smoke isreleased into the crowd. It's unclear how
many of the people involved their students. No campus police are seen stepping in.
By one point thirty, you cansee an attempt is made to stop
(11:15):
the brawl by a man in aT shirt, but no police are seen.
A tweet at one forty seven amfrom Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass reads
the violence unfolding this evening at UCLAis absolutely abhorrent and inexcusable LAPD has arrived
on campus, but around two twentypolice dressed in tactical gear are seen just
standing on the outskirts as fights continueto break out on the lawn, more
(11:35):
than three hours after the attacks oncampus began. Please start breaking up the
fights, moving folks away from theencampment. A statement from the school's vice
chancellor late last night reads, horrificacts of violence occurred at the encampment and
we immediately called law enforcement from MutualAid. I worry for the safety of
surrounding areas. Just before five inthe morning is when campus officers are seen
wrapping up, and by six am, the large encampment seems to be quiet.
(11:56):
Everyone's unsure, like is there goingto be cost tomorrow? A lot
of people have midterms right now too, And you see President Michael Drake midterms,
midterms, midterms and what kind ofa schedule season? Midterms? Interesting?
Smorrow? Like a lot of peoplehave midterms right now too, And
you see President Michael Drake says hisoffice is now conducting an independent external review
(12:18):
of how the university handled the eventslast night. Yeah, Sophie Flay,
one of the best reporters over there, Channel seven as as the you know,
the newer reporters come in and theyfire the older crew, and that'll
happen around here, crows, youknow that, right, Yeah, young
kids will come in and replace us, and we'll get all pissed and angry
(12:39):
and we'll move on at some point. All right, LAPD standing by for
tonight and the mischief that may happenat UCLA. When we come back,
we'll talk about that big to dosat UCLA. And also the Mayday Rally
march is still going on in Hollywood, and it's going to be really chilly
this week can it's going to besixty five degrees in Burbank on Saturday,
(13:05):
sixty five or sixty six degrees onSunday. Wow, So this Saturday and
Sunday, you thought it was goingto be a day where you can go
out in the sun and enjoy yourselfat spring. Spring is sprung the grasses,
Riz, tell me where the flowersis? Not so fast? Jen
and I we're going to go tothe Renaissance Fair this weekend. Oh,
bring a jacket, yeah, downjacket apparently ski boots, ski poles or
(13:26):

it's gonna be freezing. Where isthe Renaissance Fair this year? Out there
in uh Erwin Day where it alwaysthis and Irwindell? I thought they moved
that around. No, now thereare multiple ones, but that one's there
at the same place every year.Do you dress up? Last time I

absolutely? And Jen it takes mea long time to get Gen to goat
(13:48):
to want to go and yes,I'm with her. Now do you have
an accent? Do you walk aroundwith that? So? I couldn't pull
that off. I can't. Ican't pull off the the I'm not that
No, Okay, I bet Gendoesn't it an accent. We'll find out.
I'm gonna put some stuff on socialmedia. That's great. You're listening
(14:09):
to Tim Conway Junior on DEMYA fromKFI AM six forty. Let's go right
to Chris Adler. Who's that yousee la in the midst of all this
mayhem here on Wednesday May first?Chris Adler, how you hate Tim?
I'm good. It's may Day,may Day, may Day. It's wild
out there, Hans. It stillsmell like tear gas and Robert bullets.
(14:33):
No, you know what, butI've got my pepper spray out here just
in case. I saw one ofthe reporters last night that was reporting during
in the midst of all that shegot sprayed with pepper spray and had to
go off the air because of it. So I am prepared. I'm prepared.
But right now, Tim, it'sI'm seeing a lot of police roll
in from Beverly Hills PD, SantaMonica, PEDIA, We've got c HP,
(14:54):
we have LAPD, lots of LAPDhere and they just keep coming in
and droves and they're walking onto campspans. One thing, I'm not seeing
tactical gear though, I'm not seeingtactical gear. I did hear you talking
about Chris Christy above. I waswatching him circle above and he's right.
They are very organized. I heardthe protesters talking today. They were saying
they've got new rules, they're notgoing to back down, and they were
(15:16):
using power tools, Tim, tosecure those pieces of plywood they have are
that they're barricaded behind. Yeah,they needed they needed a structural engineer out
there last night. I didn't seethat the craftsmanship going into building that wall
was a plus. Well, itwas very flimsy, and those pieces kept
(15:37):
getting blown over by I watched multipletimes as those big pieces of wood were
blown over by the wind. Andnow they've they've got zip ties that they're
using zip ties to secure pieces ofwood, other pieces of fencing all together,
tying it all together. It lookspretty secure from my angle now,
(15:58):
but it was not last night whenit was breached by those pro Palestinian I'm
sorry by the pro Israeli counter protesterswho attacked the camp last night, but
they they were reinforcing that all dayto day, Tim Noll, you know
what and when do they get Whenis USLA finally gonna say let's clear everything
out and go back to just youknow, students and books. Well,
(16:19):
that's the question. So I heardthe protesters saying they're trying to force us
out. They're trying to force usout before we can we can, you
know, we can stand up forthis mission. They're trying to force us
out. And I've been reaching outto UCLA to get an answer. I've
been reaching out and talking to campusPD. Nobody seems to have an answer.
I've talked to LAPD. I said, hey, what's the plan?
(16:41):
How long you know the campus.The university has now deemed this an unlawful
camp site. They are forced out. They're supposed to be leaving and dismantling.
They're not doing that. So atwhat point will the university let LAPD
and other officers roll in? Willthey be arrested like we saw at USC.
It's going to happen. But Iwill tell you this, the protesters
(17:02):
are not planning to back down.They've actually been taking martial arts lessons from
within the camp, preparing for anencounter with the police. And it sounds
like tonight they may be waiting forthat and planning that. Again, huge
police presence here, but I don'tsee tactical gear, so it's not clear
(17:22):
tim if they're going to move in. All right, now, what's your
plan? Chris? Are you outthere for the night? You done at
six? What's your night? Like? Well? I, you know,
I'm supposed to be here until seven, but I just have a feeling and
just looking around that you know,I'm watching the police. One officer was
setting up a staging point over here. Just have a feeling that something's gonna
go down tonight, So I maybe here tonight. Yeah, all right,
(17:47):
we'll check back with you. Reallyappreciate you going out there and that
crazy. Absolutely all right, ThanksTim, all right, Chris Adler,
everybody KFI reporter there on the scene. If anything shakes down tonight, we
will have that live for you.It's wild out there, man, oh
man, it's wild. Chris Christywas flying over the sky overhead. Let's
(18:07):
find out what he had to say. This is an update. He flew
over a little after three o'clock andthen this is the latest report Channel seven
high in the sky over UCLs.You just get a sick feeling in the
pit of your stomach that we mightbe in for something of a repeat.
We have been watching that resupply missionthat Josh was just talking about all night
long. You can see various tentsdedicated to various equipment that has been resupplied
(18:32):
here by various students walking in herewith fresh flows of helmets, paint,
umbrellas, a stockpile of plywood,and all kinds of personal protection equipment,
including gas masks. They are readyfor a confrontation and they are gearing up
in a very organized fashion. Itis a surreal site. What is already
a very heavily vandalized quad in frontof Royce Hall. Here you could see
(18:56):
several hundred pro Palestinians in the middleof that encampment. Opposite them is a
whole line, unlike last night,a whole line of sheriff deputies, California
Highway patrolmen and additional law enforcement resourcesthat are waiting in the wings for whatever
is about to go down tonight,reporting live MAAR seven h D all Right,
(19:18):
Chris Christy, Channel seven high inthe sky over UCLA and tonight there
might be another repeat. They're goingto try to stop it. The cops
are going to try to stop it, but who knows. Who knows.
When you're gearing up and you've gottear gas and masks and clubs and umbrellas
and food and all kinds of things, it looks like they are gearing up
(19:41):
for another night of craziness. Sowe will keep on top of it and
find out exactly how it's going toshake down. This just came in from
LAPD superintendent on UCLA protest here Westwood. Last night. The Los Angeles Police
Department, as well as several othersstate and local law enforcement agencies, responded
(20:03):
to the UCLA campus. UCLA requestedmutual aid after reports of violent clashes between
protesters, and once mutual aid andresources were formed and coordinated, they separated
the two groups. No arrests weremade, no force was used, no
officers were injured. Los Angeles PoliceDepartment, along with other local law enforcement
(20:27):
agencies, will remain in the areato ensure public safety until the situation is
resolved. All right, Well,we'll find out what's going on tonight,
but stay with your KFI. Staywith KFI. We're gonna bring it.
Chris ad will be out there andwe'll bring you updates all night long.
What happens out at UCLA. Whata day? You're listening to Tim Conway
(20:52):
Junior on demand from KFI AM sixforty. All right, a lot of
news going on. We got theMay Day rally going on in Hollywood,
Angel Martinez and Micha O'Brien all overthat event. And then we have UCLA
was on fire last night, andChris Christy, very knowledgeable pilot slash or
(21:17):
reporter for Channel seven, he thinksthere might be some shenannigans going on tonight.
Both sides are gearing up for that, so we're on top of that.
There was an earthquake in Corona.We followed that. It woke me
up. I happy to be sleeping, you know, and I woke my
ass up and I like that.And then Chris Adler, who's out at
UCLA, said, there's a lotof cops tonight. That'll be the difference
(21:41):
between last night and tonight at UCLA. And it's going to be very cold
this weekend, unseasonably chilli in southernCalifornia, which is a great, great
temperature and a great weekend for theBeach Life Festival. It'll be happening this
weekend at Redondo Beach and from Bello. From what you understand, and I'm
(22:04):
not putting words in your mouth,they've set up some beautiful stages and this
is a beautiful event. Coming fromDave Weice, who is our marketing director.
He hates everything right. He's atough critic. He has very high
expectations and he is involved in allof our events and all of our setups.
He said to me, he goes, this is spectacular. It's got

Anyway, it's going to be abeautiful event, and that comes from
somebody that has very high standards.Wow. All right, So that's this
weekend the Beach Life Festival May third, fourth, and fifth at Redondo on
(22:52):
the Beach and our own Nil Sevadra, the Fork Reporter, will be doing
the Fork Report live on Saturday fromtwo to five pm. Could be a
big fent, big deal. Allright. We have bad news here for
La County Fire Department. They werewoken up late last night early this morning
to a fire. And anytime somebodyknocks on the door and says, hey,
(23:15):
there's a fire, the first questionyou have is where where's the fire?
And they said, well, it'sinside the firehouse. Oh which one?
The one you're sleeping in? Whatfirefighters usually get calls in the middle
of the night about fires in otherlocations, but it is a very rare
case to see flames erupting in theirown station. Well, take a look.
(23:37):
This is the damage that we're seeingthis morning. It's a tough scene
out here. We're seeing fire truckscompletely destroyed, the hundreds of thousands of
dollars of damage inside their own firehouse. How'd this happen? Completely destroyed?
The roof collapse on one of theengines. A lot of debris here.
The walls the flooring of this holdinghave been blackened, and there are inspects
(24:02):
here taking a look at the station. The good news is no one was
hurt. Good flames erupt at fouram Wednesday morning. Nine firefighters at Station
one sixty four waking up to smokeand a passerby banging on the door.
Wow, what a night was this? The Westlake area believe this chaotic video
(24:23):
taken by someone who lives behind thestation in Huntington Park. Yeah, Huntington
Park, west Lake area. Itstarted on the apparatus floor. La County
Fire says the cause is under investigation, but might have started with a fire
engine. More units were called tohelp with the second alarm fire, but
the flames had already wreaked havoc.Yeah, the fire very rarely starts in
(24:45):
a fire engine in a firehouse.This is rare, so rare that I
don't ever remember it ever happening,and I you know, I'm well or
my thirties. I don't ever rememberthis happening. One hundred foot aerial ladder
truck that was lost. Oh that'smillions, that's at least a million dollars
right there. One hundred foot aerialladder truck that was lost, an engine
(25:07):
fire engine that was lost. Ohanother half million, probably well over two
million dollars worth of damage to thisfirehouse and the equipment. We had our
battalion Chiefs suburban that was lost.Oh no, they let the Chiefs car
burn. I love tells you whatcar it was. Its suburban. It's
the Chiefs suburban, the Chiefs.That's La County chief suburban. We had
(25:30):
our battalion Chiefs suburban that was lost, and our paramedic squad that was all
total losses. The fire was knockeddown a little after an hour. LA
County Supervisor Janis hunh You know what'sreally tough is when those firefighters realized they
needed help to put it out,to call other fire stations, go hey,
can you guys send somebody over?Yeah, where's the fire? Turn
(25:52):
around? It's our station? Wasthat our station? Wait? Wait?
Wait, what'd you say? Ourstation on fire? Get over here.
La County Supervisor Janis Hahn came tosurvey the scene this morning. It reminds
me of a story my uncle,Jerry Dalton, is a volunteer firefighter in
a place called Erio, Ontario,which is about an hour and a half
(26:15):
north northeast of Windsor or Detroit,and a very small community. Everybody in
that on that peninsula knows each other. It's due north of Cleveland, Ohio,
across the Lake Erie, on theLake Erie Shore. A few geography
nuts out there, and he waswoking up. He's a volunteer fireman,
woking up. I ran to thefirehouse and got to the firehouse and said,
(26:41):
Hey, where's the fire And theysaid, I your house. Because
what do you mean, Because,yeah, you left too quickly. The
back of your house, the garagein the back of your house is on
fire. I didn't know that's atrue story. May flip a U turn.
Yeah. He gets all the wayout of the fire station, they
tell him it's a fires at yourhouse, Bob. It's devastating to see
(27:03):
it. The rigs, the engines, the flooring, the roof, it's
all completely destroyed. Thankfully, noone was injured, but the firefighters are
still dealing with the emotional aftermath.Well, most of our fire stations are
like second homes to our firefighters,so it's really tough. And these guys
gonna been killed. You know,when you're sleeping in the firehouse, you're
sound asleep, baby, out ofyour plugs on, I don't know,
(27:26):
and all of a sudden somebody knockson your door and your station's on fire.
For them to lose something so dearand so close in personal to them,
Huntington Park Mayor Karina Massias says thebuilding has history in the city,
used to be an original Hingo Parkof fire station when Hening Park had their
own fire department and eventually became acounty station. Our firefighters have given back
(27:48):
a lot to the community, sowe definitely are here to get back to
them now and in this situation,now back out here a lot. The
investigation into the cause continues. Thegood news is the building is not a
total loss, can be renovated andremodeled and used once again. And La
County Fire also tells us they foundthat passer by who knocked on the door
and alerted the firefighters to those flamesthis morning, and what they do.
(28:11):
I just found the guy. AndLa County Fire also tells us they found
that passer by all right, andwho knocked on the door and alerted the
firefighters and they give them a treat, they give money, they give them
a reward to those flames this morning. No information on that. Mmmmmm all
right. A lot of big storieshappening, man, I can't believe how
