(00:00):
It's KFI Am six and you're listeningto the Conway Show on demand on the
iHeartRadio app. All right, DeanCharms usually with us on Thursday, but
he went to a pretty kick assconcert last night at the Hollywood Bowl.
He's on every Saturday morning Tomorrow morningon KFI and then also on Sunday he's
the house whisper and he joins us. Dean, how you, Bob?
(00:21):
Just still thinking about the nude cruise? Is that something that you and your
wife would jump on or maybe inthe years past. I don't think jump
on is the right term to use, by the way, but we would
go. I think we would go, and I think we would regret.
A decision would be because it's closingoptional, right, so our decision would
(00:44):
be full form of where every day. Oh that's great, that is fantastic.
Hey, I want to ask you. We ran into each other yesterday
at al Dick Holmes or Home orHomes Home Home out on Spulvet the Boulevard.
They've got the greatest outdoor furniture andI and flowers and everything that they
do a sensational job, especially onChristmas. And I was happy to meet
(01:06):
the owner and the people that runthat place. Man, that is the
that is a unique place in LosAngeles. It really is, isn't it?
Though? It just they're really youknow, I tell people all the
time, there's no place like it, But once you're there, you realize,
yeah, yeah, there's no reallythere's no place like this. Yeah,
there's really clearly all right. Solast night you go to this concert
(01:27):
at it was the Netflix Concert nothingbut laughs or make me laugh? What
was it called? Netflix is ajoke? Is a joke? And it
was a Wednesday night and Thursday nightof the Hollywood Bowl, same crew,
and it's starting. It actually isthe kickoff of two weeks. It's two
weeks of comedy festival here in Laso all over La including the Bowl,
(01:52):
comedians just as many comedians as youcould imagine we've ever had here at one
place, going to be performing allover the place. But last night,
man, talk about this, becauseI know you asked me yesterday, are
like, ooh wow, who's thewarm up back? Well, there wasn't
one. There were four comedians,Nate Bargatzi, Sebastian Maniscalco, Jim Gaffigan,
and Jerry Seinfeld. And all theydid was they just they came out
(02:14):
at the beginning and they picked numbersout of a hat to decide who was
going on first. Oh, that'sright, that's cool. How is Maniscalco.
He's one of my favorites in theworld. He had some new material
and he was awesome. He spentlike fifteen minutes talking about digging his kids
to Universal Studios. It was hilarious. Oh that's great, hilarious. All
right, So today we're talking aboutthe twenty five important things you might not
(02:37):
know. You're going to cover allof them tomorrow and Sunday. But I
thought one of them was interesting.Number fifteen, Your builder isn't an engineer.
I thought that was interesting. Yeah. And the reason I want to
bring that up is because not thatI would assume most homeowners think that,
but a lot of builders present themselvesto homeowners as like, look, hey,
(03:00):
listen, I know what we're gonnado with this ceiling here, or
when we tear this wall out,that's gonna be fine. And I just
I want the homeowner to know ifwe're talking about you know, and I've
been doing this for almost forty yearsnow, if we're talking about doing something
structural to your house, the buildermay have an opinion, and they may
be right. In fact, Iwould like to pat myself on the back
(03:22):
and say that I'm right most ofthe time about what has to happen to
a thing. But we're never gonnago with what I'm saying because I'm not
the structural engineer. You got toget an engineer involved if structural things are
happening to the house. Your builderis not an engineer, unless, of
course they are, and they canshow you their engineering license. But that's
usually not the case. On amuch i guess, more common node here.
(03:46):
The garbage disposal has really not improvedover the last thirty or forty years.
It's sort of, you know,the same. The one under our
sync looks a lot like the onemy grandmother had. And yet, you
know, back then, even thoughmy grandmother had a garbage disposal, she
threw nothing down the sink. Shedidn't believe in it. And I sort
of adopted that from her, andI try not to throw anything down the
(04:11):
garbage disposal, and I try neverto use it. And I guess that's
turned out to be the right thingto do. It's totally the right thing
to do. And this one getseverybody upset when I talk about it,
because so many people just love theirgarbage disposal. Amy King was telling me
this morning, and she's like,I love my garbage dispoil I love throwing
stuff down. But here's the thing. It's not the garbage disposal. There's
(04:32):
nothing wrong with it, per se. The problem is this, it macerates
food into this sticky paste, andthat sticky paste unlike anything else that goes
down the drain sticks two hour drainagepipes. Now it also sticks to sewer
lines and causes all sorts of problemsultimately with prematurely aging your drains and prematurely
(04:55):
aging infrastructure. And you know what, the US, we are the garbage
dispol kings. Like forty eight percentof households of homes in the United States
have garbage disposals. But you justgo north of US into Canada six percent.
Wow. The European Union has outlawedthem all entirely because you know,
they're working on some like two hundredyear old infrastructures over there. They can't
(05:18):
afford to have that kind of stuffgoing on. So the fact of the
matter is, in the age ofcomposting, it's far better to just scrape
the excess food scraps into a compostbin or the trash can, and then
just use the sink to rinse off, you know, the rest of the
stuff before you throw it in thedishwasher. Don't feed the garbage disposal all
(05:39):
your food. I'm with you.I noticed that the only time that we
really have a backup in the houseis around Christmas, when my wife does
a lot of baking and a lotof the scrapped cookies or flour or dough
gets caught in the drain and Igot to get a snake and snake it
out. So I imagine the garbagedisposal does the same thing. It grinds
(06:00):
it up and really will line yourpipes and after a while they are going
to close up on you. Yeah. Yeah, it's just a it's an
inevitability. Yeah, all right,So tomorrow and Sunday the twenty five important
things you might not know, andI'll be looking forward to it. I
can't wait. I'd listened on Sundayon the way home from church. How
about that? Thanks, I needto get a laugh. It's the funniest
(06:26):
thing you've said today. That's right, okay, buddy, you're the best,
all right, you Dean Sharp.Everybody check them out tomorrow and Sunday,
Saturday morning and Sunday morning. Righthere on KFI the twenty five things
you might not know, very importantfor homeowners or people in an apartment,
whatever you got going on. You'relistening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty. Hey,the Kentucky Derby is tomorrow. That's a
(06:54):
big, big day in my household. It's the It's a huge day for
almost every everybody lives in Kentucky.It is the first leg of the Triple
Crown. It's the one hundred andfiftieth run for the Roses. I think
it'll be an NBC tomorrow. NBCusually covers it. There'll be twenty horses,
pretty big field and you could winsome money. You know. It
(07:18):
pays a ton of money, evenwhen the favorites come in to win place
and show the exact as, trifectas, Superfecta's all the gimmick bets there.
It is a very exciting day.The Kentucky Derby is tomorrow. The Oaks
is today, the Kentucky Oaks.That's when the female horses run and it
(07:43):
looks like it's raining out there.The track is wet, it's muddy.
I think they sealed it, whichmeans they take a heavy piece of equipment
like a literally like a four tonpiece of steel and they run over the
track, so they seal it.It's almost like cement. When it rains.
They do that, the horses willbe wearing their mutters. They'll be
wearing almost like cleats to help themnavigate through very muddy conditions. And it's
(08:09):
going to be tomorrow, May fourth. May the fourth be with you,
So it's gonna be a big day. And yesterday we had ted Ziggenbusch on
and he gave us the number seventeenhorse Allo of course that is a favorite.
I'm going with the fifteen, whichis a huge long shot. I
think it was thirty eight to one. And so I'll be out at sant
(08:31):
Anita watching that race. If you'reout at Sannita, I'll see you there.
Stop, you know. If yousee me out there and you stop,
you know and you say hello,I'm gonna ask to borrow money.
So I would avoid any contact withme because I'll be broke and I'll be
wanting to borrow some money. Soif you do say hi to me,
(08:52):
and I say, hey, canI borrow twenty? I'm not kidding.
I'm not kidding and may need atwenty or one hundred ding dong with you.
All right, let's talk about theLakers. Big deal. When the
premier team in the National Basketball Association, which is the Lakers, Lakers and
Celtics, the two big teams,when one of them fires a head coach,
(09:16):
it's a big deal, big bigdeal. And the head coach in
Lakers has been dismissed, sof axit. The Lakers have fired head coach Darvin
Ham. In two seasons at theHelm, Ham accumulated a record of ninety
and seventy four, including a surpriserun to the Western Conference Finals last season.
Ninety and seventy four is not goodenough for Los Angeles now when you
got Lebron James. Ninety and seventyfour not good but with a healthy Lebron
(09:41):
James and Anthony Davis. This season, the Lakers had to qualify for the
playoffs via the play in Tournament andthen they were eliminated by the Denver Nuggets.
They got wiped out by Bellios Nuggetsin five games. Reports have previously
scored about players being unhappy with Ham'scoaching style, especially his rotations. Here's
even from GM Rob Polinka. Itreads, in part, we greatly appreciate
(10:03):
Darvin's efforts on behalf of the Lakersand recognize these these dismissal letters are all
the same. We really appreciate it. The guys kick ass. The guy's
great. We just couldn't stand himanymore. They never put that in the
letter there. We talked about howgreat he was. Well, if he's
that great, why is he stillwith the team? It reads in part,
(10:24):
we greatly appreciate Darvin's efforts on behalfof the Lakers and recognize, Oh,
they don't greatly appreciate it. Theydon't. They would have kept him
if they did. We greatly appreciateDarvin's efforts on behalf of the Lakers.
That's not true, and recognize themany accomplishments achieved over the past two seasons.
That's not true. While this wasa difficult decision to make, that's
not true. God, all ofa sudden, none of this is true.
(10:46):
It is the best course of actionfollowing a full review of the season.
That's the only thing that's true.At the end. It is the
best course of action following a fullreview of the season. All right,
that dismissal letter is filled with untruthswhere some people call him lies. Lie,
they lied. This has to bea lie. We greatly appreciate Darvin's
(11:09):
efforts on behalf of the Lakers.Okay, that might be true. They
appreciate his efforts. I'll take thatback. That might be true, and
recognize the many accomplishments achieved over thepast two seasons. That's not true.
They didn't win a championship over thelast two seasons. How can they be
very happy with what he did overthe last two seasons and recognize the many
(11:31):
accomplishments achieved over the past two seasons. Many accomplishments. I missed something.
While this was a difficult decision tomake, I don't know if that's true.
I don't know. Maybe that is. I don't think it is because
they quickly got rid of him.This season ended for the Lakers two nights
ago. A really tough decision wouldhave him fired in mid November or you
(11:52):
know, August, but they firedhim as he was, you know,
driving his car out of the parkinglot. While this was a difficul all
decision to make. I don't thinkthat's true. It is the best course
of action. Following a full reviewof the season. Well, there we
go. The Los Angeles Lakers havedismissed their coach our USC graduation. What's
(12:13):
going to go on with USC's graduation. We come back, we'll find out.
But let me play something for youover the phone. Man. The
Internet is filled with very creative people. And there's a guy that put together
this. I guess it's not animation. It's a voiceover of kids rioting at
(12:35):
It looks like UCLA, but itmight be it might be Columbia as well.
But there's there's kids running at thecops with a trash can that was
cut in half and they're using thetrash can as a shield. And the
voiceover was stolen out of I guessit's AI generated And it sounds exactly like
the voice of the guy that usedto do the NFL movies, John Facenda.
(12:58):
Yeah right, yeah, yeah,Johnhasa. He was great. You
know Eddie Givens Sunday, you knowback in that voice someone that played for
you off my phone. It's alittle clumsy, but here it goes.
It really is terrific. In aspectacle of misguided valor. The privileged warriors
bravely advanced, placing their faith inrubber made and petruly oil. But the
guardians of order stood resolute, repellingthe advance. Like the steel curtain.
(13:22):
There would be revolutionaries met not withvictory, but with the cold reality of
life. Echoes of the folly ofyouth reverberated across the nation, a cautionary
tale immortalized in the Annals of Absurdity. Man, Ohmed, you know,
I remember a lot of protests inthis country. I remember, you know,
(13:43):
since I've been alive, there's beenyou know, unrest and protests.
There's been riots, There's been alot of you know, people who have
gotten together in big numbers to tryto change society. But I never in
my life remember a helmet. Manypeople were laughing at a certain group,
you know, the George Floyd unrestthat happened after that, the marches.
(14:09):
I don't remember anybody laughing at thosepeople. Back in nineteen ninety two when
they had the la riots, Idon't remember anybody laughing at that or at
those people. But man, thereis a lot of people laughing at these
people who are protesting on these collegecampuses, and I don't know what it
(14:31):
is. I don't know why they'renot taking this movement seriously, but a
lot of mark it's odd. Allright, we'll come back speaking of that
USC their graduation. I know alot of people have either kids. You
went to USC. Maybe you knowsomebody's going to graduate. We'll tell you
what their plans are when we comeback. You're listening to Tim Conway Junior
on demand from KFI AM six forty. Steve Gregory is with us the best
(14:58):
reporter in TV or in my opinion, in the United States of America.
Oh, come on, you're verykind. There's a lot of people out
there better than me. Let's havenames. I can't think of them.
Okay, all right, So Iwas. I was Robert. Robert Kvasik's
great with live cameras. Grande chipYos chip Yos is terrific. There's a
(15:18):
lot of great there's a lot.I mean, I'm just joking, but
there's a lot of great reported.I'm very blessed to be in this market
and work with such great professionals.Okay, all right, So Ucla,
Ucla, Ucla, everyone's talking aboutit. I was shocked that you weren't
down there. I thought that wouldbe perfect for you. You know what.
I was tired. Yeah, Ijust didn't want to go getting old.
(15:39):
Here's the thing. I honestly,I was on two other projects and
I couldn't break away from it becauseI had commitments. One of them on
Wednesday morning was undercover sting with LaCounty Sheriff's departments. So that's the retail
crime, the cyber and fraud.Oh okay, they were busting the Romanian
ATM crewise. Oh and I meanthey're at it again. I grew they
(16:02):
were able to extract and we wereright there when they arrested them. They
were able to extract sixty seven hundreddollars and under ten minutes from an ATM.
Wow, that's how fast they go. And they got these stacks of
these gift cards that they've re embeddedwith people's EBT information from their like their
state assistants, and that's they specificallygo after that kind of money. But
(16:23):
that's really rude. I mean,those are the people that needed the moment.
Yeah, And when they go gettheir money for their rent or food
for their kids or something, it'snot there. It's their accounts have been
drained, and then it takes forever, because a glacial pace of the state
takes forever to get that money backright and then when somebody files a claim
saying that they're ripped off, you'reright, takes a long time, and
(16:45):
those people don't have a long timeneed that money right now, I mean
right away. So then that wason Wednesday, and then Thursday I was
undercover again with an organized retailed crimetask force. And that was fascinating because
that I was told by one ofthe sergeants on the crew on the Major
Crimes Bureau that this could very wellbe the largest retailed crime bust they've done
(17:10):
in history. Wow, for them, all this stuff that's been ripped off
from Costco and and I you know, Target and all these September of last
year, they have recovered eleven anda half million dollars worth of merchandise,
which is probably a tast drop inthe bucket compared to what's been stolen nationally,
probably, but the largest part ofit here in a good county.
That's just in La County. Elevenand a half million. You know.
(17:32):
I was talking to Krozier and Bellletthe other day I in the you know,
in the last thirty years, upuntil I don't know, maybe three
years ago, I may have seensomebody steal something significantly from a store,
maybe once or twice. I seeit now two or three times a week.
Well, here's the new wrinkle onthis that I learned yesterday morning,
(17:52):
and that is it was a tristate effort. So people thieves in Arizona
and Nevada are bringing their merchandise toLa County and they're storing it in warehouses.
And then the people members of thesesmash and grab crews and these retail
crime crews, they clean up theproduct, they get it ready for resale,
(18:15):
and it's being stored in these twohuge warehouses. So they're well organized,
very well organized. So this bustyesterday was a big part of that.
And in fact, I got aguy that was on the raid yesterday
with me had just texted me backand said they arrested eight adults, seven
of whom were men, one woman, and they got them for organized retail
(18:38):
theft and receiving stolen property. Sowhat happens is that this millions of dollars
worth of merchandise is being brought infrom Nevada and Arizona to La County and
you know why they're bringing it hereeasy to sell. Well that but and
it's a gateway city, I mean, to everywhere. But if they get
caught, oh no punishment. Yeah, that's why. That's the wrinkle.
(19:02):
You know, they they've and notjust because of the District Attorney in La
County's policies, but because of theState of California's policies. You know.
I noticed I learned from a friendof mine who lives in Burbank and he's
doing a deep dive on people stealingand robbery and all that stuff. And
he said, if if you getbusted outside of a Walmart and you've stolen
(19:26):
merchandise, the cop will write youa ticket and let you go right there.
Yeah, that's part of the thing. It's in. That's why,
like for instance, you know,I know we're going to talk about it
in a bit on the all theprotests. Yeah, there's a lot made
about what's going to really happen tothese students because of the culture in Los
Angeles and Los Angeles County. Allr let's take a break and come back
and talk about what will happen tothese kids. Okay, well, will
(19:48):
happen to these protesters? And I'msure you have some inside information what happened
at UCLA. I've got some viewsfrom insiders. Okay, we'll talk about
the when come back? Is thatcool? Sure? Okay? All right.
Steve Gregory's with us and he's tired, so give him a break.
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior ondemand from KFI AM six forty R.
(20:11):
Steve Gregory joins us. He hasa ton of connections with LAPD, Sheriff's
Department, other divisions, police organizations, police forces. He knows them all.
So what is the inside? Whatdo you hear about these UCLA students
that were arrested? And are theygoing to have a police record? Well
and arrest record odds No, Oddsare that they will not have a record
(20:32):
of any kind. First of all, most of the things that they were
detained for or booked for, ormisdemeanors, and I'm sure it was more
of a book and release, iswhat I was told. Is mostly a
book and release and citation or citationrelease. And they're not gonna there's nothing's
going to happen to So the biggestpunishment might be suspended or expelled from school.
Yeah, so I think the biggestpunishment's going to come from the university,
(20:53):
right, not from the city attorneyor the county attorney. And I
don't know how many. One thingwe did not get from law enforcement was
the breakdown of felonies and misdemeanors ifany of them were felonies. Anything on
the violent side is going to bea felony. But who's going to pay
for all that overtime? Well,UCLA pay. UCLA will be on the
tap for all of that because theyrequested the help be built for it.
(21:15):
Yeah, I'll be built for it. And that's millions of dollars. I
won't say millions of dollars in theot because remember UCLA also told LAPD to
stand down, right, is oneof the big issues. Yeah, and
they're the president, the chancellor orwhatever they're calling this dope. He was
blaming the cops. Well, it'sfunny because when I, you know,
(21:37):
talk to somebody from the the union, one of the union people that represents
the college cops and they're like,we don't do anything like this on this
scale without direction from leadership administration,And we basically are on standby until somebody
tells us something, and we weretold not to engage. We were told
(22:00):
kind of the parameters. We weretold not to call in any help.
And then at one point they did, remember there were two tactical alerts last
week, right, one on Wednesday, one on Saturday. Right, the
Saturday one was the radical one.Yeah, that's when it started getting nasty.
And but that was the one thatlaped backed off on later on because
the college is like, no,we don't need you after all. But
(22:22):
but I've never seen it where theyblame the cops both ways. If they
don't show up, they blame themas they share they're damned if they do,
damned if they don't. They they'realways the easy escapegoat. Everyone's like
telling demanding that there's no there's demandingthat this happened, that happens. It's
like the cops don't do this ontheir own. And remember, even though
this is a state institution, itdoesn't mean the LAPD has the jurisdiction just
(22:45):
to roll right into the campus andstart, you know, taking people into
custody. That's not how they doit. They cannot enter that facility as
a peace officer without permission from leadership, right, And actually, what's weird
about it is like a state patrolperson a SHP, they have peace officer
powers to do anything anywhere in thestate of California. Okay, But if
(23:07):
there's no punishment for these kids orthese protesters, and I shouldn't call them
kids, there were something there,you know, in the late twenties,
early thirties. But if there's nopunishment, they're not going to get a
police record. It's a misdemeanor.They're not going to have anything on their
you know, no criminal arrest record. Then what's to deter them from doing
this all over again if they getexpelled? Okay, but if they get
expelled, who cares? If theydon't care, who why can't they do
(23:30):
it again? To borrow? Well, here's the thing. It depends because
if you've got someone that's going toone of these universities, presumably they want
a really nice job, a reallygood job, and if they get down
the line. This is the thingthat makes me laugh about people that do
things like this when at a youngage, right, because in social media,
the crazy things they post on socialmedia, because somewhere down the line
that's going to come back and bitethem in the ass. Sure. And
(23:52):
so when they're sitting down at thatreally high end job and they're looking through
and they're being vetted and background checked, and they're like, well, wait
a minute, what happened here college? You were suspended or expelled? Right?
And you know what's also a bigred flag are people that don't have
any kind of social media footprint.That means that in the past they've either
(24:14):
ignored social media, which is weirdfor kids, or they have so much
crap on that they decided to justeliminate their footprint. Sure, and and
there are companies out there that makegood money scrubbing your your footprint. Yeah,
that's what they do. But Imean, I point to this.
This is interesting because UCLA Gaza Protestgroup says LAPD and CHP brutalized students in
(24:37):
orchestrated effort during encampment eviction. Right. That's crazy. Yeah, that's uh
this You know what this all remindedme of. And I think one of
the reasons why I was triggered wasthe Occupy LA Right, and you were
on that. Oh my god,I was embedded in inside of that with
LAPD. Were you embedded when theywhen they got together at Dodger Stadium,
Yes, and then took the busesdown. That's the tip, by God
(25:00):
is they were staging at Dodger Stadium. So when I drove over there,
I was like, holy hell.A lot of cops, a lot of
buses, a lot of cops,fifteen hundred cops. And then they used
a secret tunnel to get into cityHall. They did a trojan horse,
which came from an idea from theOakland Police Department. If memory serves,
it was Oakland or San Francisco.Somebody had gone up there in a conference
and they got into a conversation andthe guy was coming back LAPD. I'm
(25:23):
sure if I get this wrong,I'll be reminded. But the guy,
he kind of laid out the planand he said, hey, why don't
we utilize the underground tunnels that they'vehad down there for utility work and whatnot.
The tunnel goes from the east eastCity Hall, under the street and
up through City Hall. And theydid. They staged and they went through
there, and they come up andthen I'll never forget this, never forget
(25:45):
standing right there on that sidewalk infront of the what would be the west
entrance to City Hall, and allof a sudden, those doors bust wide
open, and all those LPD officersjust come running out like ants coming out
of an ant hill. And theyjust took everyone by surprise. And then
it expected because they came from behindthem. Yeah. And then because they
were they had the they were doinga line because they had a skirmish line
(26:08):
over there to distract them because theythought that's where the activity was going to
come from, by the LAPD headquarters. So they all had their little spears
and their little uh you know,I just think about it now, you
just ted the stupid little bamboo spearslike king ching ching, and they don't
they're not doing anything. And theirbig trick was to fill the uh the
(26:30):
water bottles with urine. They weredoing urine bombs. Right. What was
that protest over again? It wasthe Wall Street the one percenters. Okay,
remember the one percenters that were controllingeverything? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I that one. At least theythey had some self interest. I
don't know what the self interest iswith this. You know, in Kent
State, you're two younger, rememberthat. But in Kent State when they
were protesting the Vietnam War and you'renot Yes, well, they had some
(26:52):
self interest in that because they didn'twant to go to Vietnam and get killed.
Yeah, there was this. Thiswas a lot more fractured in its
messaging. And this is why Ithink when you really explore and do a
deep dive on what happened here andwhy it happened, you're going to see
that that these students, and veryfew of them were students, by the
way, you know that I thinkif that most of them are professional agitators,
(27:18):
and this is coming straight from intel, from law enforcement intel. So
and what happens is they have avery orchestrated and very funded effort to perpetuate
somebody else's ideology. And that's that'sprecisely what was happening here. You know.
Moe Kelly had a great comment lastnight. He called them the dumbest
smart kids he's ever seen. Yeah, and here's the thing, and when
these dumbest smart kids start pulling thesekinds of stunts, it's going to stay
(27:41):
with them in some way, whetherit's law enforcement side or whether it's university
education side, it will stick withthem. Now, some people are hailing
them as heroes right, and that'sfine, you know, but I'll just
tell you that this it's like theit's like if anyone knows the rap.
It's one of the best Hollywood publicationsout there. What's her name, Sharon
(28:03):
Waxman is doing this. The headlineis how the student pro Palestine movement blew
it and she said they boiled downto humanitarian aid and banana allergies, which
is it's a great story. Okay. So while that in camp it was
going on, there were some kidsthat were reported to have had a banana
allergy. So you had to checkin yep before you went into that camp
(28:26):
in and show people you didn't havebananas with you. According to this story,
at UCLA, somebody declared a bananaallergy. What a soft crowd.
Anytime you needed to enter into thatarea that gets that hot zone, if
you will, you had to declarethat you had no banana banana stuff on
you. No, it's documented here. And then I know, I believe
here's the list, the updated supplylist. I know we're running late.
(28:48):
This was a supplylist at another collegecampus. These are the things they were
putting out that they needed, desperatelyneeded, they needed tourniquets, bandages,
tweezers, CPR masks, HIV tests, dental dam Plan B pills, chapstick
Plan B pills. So they don'tmean what they were doing to at the
(29:08):
time they were having sex in thosetents. You think, Wow, they
had some downtime. That's wild shoes, Buddy. I appreciate you guy coming
in. Say how to your dad, your beautiful dad who's eighty eight,
eighty eight, eighty eight years oldand still driving. I mean's sharp as
a tack. Wow, I believeyou got a long life out of your
buddy. I don't know about that. You're cursed, im. You know
this is a job, it's highrisk, glow rewards. You're the best.
(29:30):
Seven Nice weekend buddy, Steve GregoryEverybody Conway Show on demand on the
iHeart Radio app. Now you canalways hear us live on kf I Am
six forty four to seven pm Mondaythrough Friday, and anytime on demand on
the iHeart Radio app.
It's KFI Am six and you're listeningto the Conway Show on demand on the
iHeartRadio app. All right, DeanCharms usually with us on Thursday, but
he went to a pretty kick assconcert last night at the Hollywood Bowl.
He's on every Saturday morning Tomorrow morningon KFI and then also on Sunday he's
the house whisper and he joins us. Dean, how you, Bob?
(00:21):
Just still thinking about the nude cruise? Is that something that you and your
wife would jump on or maybe inthe years past. I don't think jump
on is the right term to use, by the way, but we would
go. I think we would go, and I think we would regret.
A decision would be because it's closingoptional, right, so our decision would
(00:44):
be full form of where every day. Oh that's great, that is fantastic.
Hey, I want to ask you. We ran into each other yesterday
at al Dick Holmes or Home orHomes Home Home out on Spulvet the Boulevard.
They've got the greatest outdoor furniture andI and flowers and everything that they
do a sensational job, especially onChristmas. And I was happy to meet
(01:06):
the owner and the people that runthat place. Man, that is the
that is a unique place in LosAngeles. It really is, isn't it?
Though? It just they're really youknow, I tell people all the
time, there's no place like it, But once you're there, you realize,
yeah, yeah, there's no reallythere's no place like this. Yeah,
there's really clearly all right. Solast night you go to this concert
(01:27):
at it was the Netflix Concert nothingbut laughs or make me laugh? What
was it called? Netflix is ajoke? Is a joke? And it
was a Wednesday night and Thursday nightof the Hollywood Bowl, same crew,
and it's starting. It actually isthe kickoff of two weeks. It's two
weeks of comedy festival here in Laso all over La including the Bowl,
(01:52):
comedians just as many comedians as youcould imagine we've ever had here at one
place, going to be performing allover the place. But last night,
man, talk about this, becauseI know you asked me yesterday, are
like, ooh wow, who's thewarm up back? Well, there wasn't
one. There were four comedians,Nate Bargatzi, Sebastian Maniscalco, Jim Gaffigan,
and Jerry Seinfeld. And all theydid was they just they came out
(02:14):
at the beginning and they picked numbersout of a hat to decide who was
going on first. Oh, that'sright, that's cool. How is Maniscalco.
He's one of my favorites in theworld. He had some new material
and he was awesome. He spentlike fifteen minutes talking about digging his kids
to Universal Studios. It was hilarious. Oh that's great, hilarious. All
right, So today we're talking aboutthe twenty five important things you might not
(02:37):
know. You're going to cover allof them tomorrow and Sunday. But I
thought one of them was interesting.Number fifteen, Your builder isn't an engineer.
I thought that was interesting. Yeah. And the reason I want to
bring that up is because not thatI would assume most homeowners think that,
but a lot of builders present themselvesto homeowners as like, look, hey,
(03:00):
listen, I know what we're gonnado with this ceiling here, or
when we tear this wall out,that's gonna be fine. And I just
I want the homeowner to know ifwe're talking about you know, and I've
been doing this for almost forty yearsnow, if we're talking about doing something
structural to your house, the buildermay have an opinion, and they may
be right. In fact, Iwould like to pat myself on the back
(03:22):
and say that I'm right most ofthe time about what has to happen to
a thing. But we're never gonnago with what I'm saying because I'm not
the structural engineer. You got toget an engineer involved if structural things are
happening to the house. Your builderis not an engineer, unless, of
course they are, and they canshow you their engineering license. But that's
usually not the case. On amuch i guess, more common node here.
(03:46):
The garbage disposal has really not improvedover the last thirty or forty years.
It's sort of, you know,the same. The one under our
sync looks a lot like the onemy grandmother had. And yet, you
know, back then, even thoughmy grandmother had a garbage disposal, she
threw nothing down the sink. Shedidn't believe in it. And I sort
of adopted that from her, andI try not to throw anything down the
(04:11):
garbage disposal, and I try neverto use it. And I guess that's
turned out to be the right thingto do. It's totally the right thing
to do. And this one getseverybody upset when I talk about it,
because so many people just love theirgarbage disposal. Amy King was telling me
this morning, and she's like,I love my garbage dispoil I love throwing
stuff down. But here's the thing. It's not the garbage disposal. There's
(04:32):
nothing wrong with it, per se. The problem is this, it macerates
food into this sticky paste, andthat sticky paste unlike anything else that goes
down the drain sticks two hour drainagepipes. Now it also sticks to sewer
lines and causes all sorts of problemsultimately with prematurely aging your drains and prematurely
(04:55):
aging infrastructure. And you know what, the US, we are the garbage
dispol kings. Like forty eight percentof households of homes in the United States
have garbage disposals. But you justgo north of US into Canada six percent.
Wow. The European Union has outlawedthem all entirely because you know,
they're working on some like two hundredyear old infrastructures over there. They can't
(05:18):
afford to have that kind of stuffgoing on. So the fact of the
matter is, in the age ofcomposting, it's far better to just scrape
the excess food scraps into a compostbin or the trash can, and then
just use the sink to rinse off, you know, the rest of the
stuff before you throw it in thedishwasher. Don't feed the garbage disposal all
(05:39):
your food. I'm with you.I noticed that the only time that we
really have a backup in the houseis around Christmas, when my wife does
a lot of baking and a lotof the scrapped cookies or flour or dough
gets caught in the drain and Igot to get a snake and snake it
out. So I imagine the garbagedisposal does the same thing. It grinds
(06:00):
it up and really will line yourpipes and after a while they are going
to close up on you. Yeah. Yeah, it's just a it's an
inevitability. Yeah, all right,So tomorrow and Sunday the twenty five important
things you might not know, andI'll be looking forward to it. I
can't wait. I'd listened on Sundayon the way home from church. How
about that? Thanks, I needto get a laugh. It's the funniest
(06:26):
thing you've said today. That's right, okay, buddy, you're the best,
all right, you Dean Sharp.Everybody check them out tomorrow and Sunday,
Saturday morning and Sunday morning. Righthere on KFI the twenty five things
you might not know, very importantfor homeowners or people in an apartment,
whatever you got going on. You'relistening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty. Hey,the Kentucky Derby is tomorrow. That's a
(06:54):
big, big day in my household. It's the It's a huge day for
almost every everybody lives in Kentucky.It is the first leg of the Triple
Crown. It's the one hundred andfiftieth run for the Roses. I think
it'll be an NBC tomorrow. NBCusually covers it. There'll be twenty horses,
pretty big field and you could winsome money. You know. It
(07:18):
pays a ton of money, evenwhen the favorites come in to win place
and show the exact as, trifectas, Superfecta's all the gimmick bets there.
It is a very exciting day.The Kentucky Derby is tomorrow. The Oaks
is today, the Kentucky Oaks.That's when the female horses run and it
(07:43):
looks like it's raining out there.The track is wet, it's muddy.
I think they sealed it, whichmeans they take a heavy piece of equipment
like a literally like a four tonpiece of steel and they run over the
track, so they seal it.It's almost like cement. When it rains.
They do that, the horses willbe wearing their mutters. They'll be
wearing almost like cleats to help themnavigate through very muddy conditions. And it's
(08:09):
going to be tomorrow, May fourth. May the fourth be with you,
So it's gonna be a big day. And yesterday we had ted Ziggenbusch on
and he gave us the number seventeenhorse Allo of course that is a favorite.
I'm going with the fifteen, whichis a huge long shot. I
think it was thirty eight to one. And so I'll be out at sant
(08:31):
Anita watching that race. If you'reout at Sannita, I'll see you there.
Stop, you know. If yousee me out there and you stop,
you know and you say hello,I'm gonna ask to borrow money.
So I would avoid any contact withme because I'll be broke and I'll be
wanting to borrow some money. Soif you do say hi to me,
(08:52):
and I say, hey, canI borrow twenty? I'm not kidding.
I'm not kidding and may need atwenty or one hundred ding dong with you.
All right, let's talk about theLakers. Big deal. When the
premier team in the National Basketball Association, which is the Lakers, Lakers and
Celtics, the two big teams,when one of them fires a head coach,
(09:16):
it's a big deal, big bigdeal. And the head coach in
Lakers has been dismissed, sof axit. The Lakers have fired head coach Darvin
Ham. In two seasons at theHelm, Ham accumulated a record of ninety
and seventy four, including a surpriserun to the Western Conference Finals last season.
Ninety and seventy four is not goodenough for Los Angeles now when you
got Lebron James. Ninety and seventyfour not good but with a healthy Lebron
(09:41):
James and Anthony Davis. This season, the Lakers had to qualify for the
playoffs via the play in Tournament andthen they were eliminated by the Denver Nuggets.
They got wiped out by Bellios Nuggetsin five games. Reports have previously
scored about players being unhappy with Ham'scoaching style, especially his rotations. Here's
even from GM Rob Polinka. Itreads, in part, we greatly appreciate
(10:03):
Darvin's efforts on behalf of the Lakersand recognize these these dismissal letters are all
the same. We really appreciate it. The guys kick ass. The guy's
great. We just couldn't stand himanymore. They never put that in the
letter there. We talked about howgreat he was. Well, if he's
that great, why is he stillwith the team? It reads in part,
(10:24):
we greatly appreciate Darvin's efforts on behalfof the Lakers and recognize, Oh,
they don't greatly appreciate it. Theydon't. They would have kept him
if they did. We greatly appreciateDarvin's efforts on behalf of the Lakers.
That's not true, and recognize themany accomplishments achieved over the past two seasons.
That's not true. While this wasa difficult decision to make, that's
not true. God, all ofa sudden, none of this is true.
(10:46):
It is the best course of actionfollowing a full review of the season.
That's the only thing that's true.At the end. It is the
best course of action following a fullreview of the season. All right,
that dismissal letter is filled with untruthswhere some people call him lies. Lie,
they lied. This has to bea lie. We greatly appreciate Darvin's
(11:09):
efforts on behalf of the Lakers.Okay, that might be true. They
appreciate his efforts. I'll take thatback. That might be true, and
recognize the many accomplishments achieved over thepast two seasons. That's not true.
They didn't win a championship over thelast two seasons. How can they be
very happy with what he did overthe last two seasons and recognize the many
(11:31):
accomplishments achieved over the past two seasons. Many accomplishments. I missed something.
While this was a difficult decision tomake, I don't know if that's true.
I don't know. Maybe that is. I don't think it is because
they quickly got rid of him.This season ended for the Lakers two nights
ago. A really tough decision wouldhave him fired in mid November or you
(11:52):
know, August, but they firedhim as he was, you know,
driving his car out of the parkinglot. While this was a difficul all
decision to make. I don't thinkthat's true. It is the best course
of action. Following a full reviewof the season. Well, there we
go. The Los Angeles Lakers havedismissed their coach our USC graduation. What's
(12:13):
going to go on with USC's graduation. We come back, we'll find out.
But let me play something for youover the phone. Man. The
Internet is filled with very creative people. And there's a guy that put together
this. I guess it's not animation. It's a voiceover of kids rioting at
(12:35):
It looks like UCLA, but itmight be it might be Columbia as well.
But there's there's kids running at thecops with a trash can that was
cut in half and they're using thetrash can as a shield. And the
voiceover was stolen out of I guessit's AI generated And it sounds exactly like
the voice of the guy that usedto do the NFL movies, John Facenda.
(12:58):
Yeah right, yeah, yeah,Johnhasa. He was great. You
know Eddie Givens Sunday, you knowback in that voice someone that played for
you off my phone. It's alittle clumsy, but here it goes.
It really is terrific. In aspectacle of misguided valor. The privileged warriors
bravely advanced, placing their faith inrubber made and petruly oil. But the
guardians of order stood resolute, repellingthe advance. Like the steel curtain.
(13:22):
There would be revolutionaries met not withvictory, but with the cold reality of
life. Echoes of the folly ofyouth reverberated across the nation, a cautionary
tale immortalized in the Annals of Absurdity. Man, Ohmed, you know,
I remember a lot of protests inthis country. I remember, you know,
(13:43):
since I've been alive, there's beenyou know, unrest and protests.
There's been riots, There's been alot of you know, people who have
gotten together in big numbers to tryto change society. But I never in
my life remember a helmet. Manypeople were laughing at a certain group,
you know, the George Floyd unrestthat happened after that, the marches.
(14:09):
I don't remember anybody laughing at thosepeople. Back in nineteen ninety two when
they had the la riots, Idon't remember anybody laughing at that or at
those people. But man, thereis a lot of people laughing at these
people who are protesting on these collegecampuses, and I don't know what it
(14:31):
is. I don't know why they'renot taking this movement seriously, but a
lot of mark it's odd. Allright, we'll come back speaking of that
USC their graduation. I know alot of people have either kids. You
went to USC. Maybe you knowsomebody's going to graduate. We'll tell you
what their plans are when we comeback. You're listening to Tim Conway Junior
on demand from KFI AM six forty. Steve Gregory is with us the best
(14:58):
reporter in TV or in my opinion, in the United States of America.
Oh, come on, you're verykind. There's a lot of people out
there better than me. Let's havenames. I can't think of them.
Okay, all right, So Iwas. I was Robert. Robert Kvasik's
great with live cameras. Grande chipYos chip Yos is terrific. There's a
(15:18):
lot of great there's a lot.I mean, I'm just joking, but
there's a lot of great reported.I'm very blessed to be in this market
and work with such great professionals.Okay, all right, So Ucla,
Ucla, Ucla, everyone's talking aboutit. I was shocked that you weren't
down there. I thought that wouldbe perfect for you. You know what.
I was tired. Yeah, Ijust didn't want to go getting old.
(15:39):
Here's the thing. I honestly,I was on two other projects and
I couldn't break away from it becauseI had commitments. One of them on
Wednesday morning was undercover sting with LaCounty Sheriff's departments. So that's the retail
crime, the cyber and fraud.Oh okay, they were busting the Romanian
ATM crewise. Oh and I meanthey're at it again. I grew they
(16:02):
were able to extract and we wereright there when they arrested them. They
were able to extract sixty seven hundreddollars and under ten minutes from an ATM.
Wow, that's how fast they go. And they got these stacks of
these gift cards that they've re embeddedwith people's EBT information from their like their
state assistants, and that's they specificallygo after that kind of money. But
(16:23):
that's really rude. I mean,those are the people that needed the moment.
Yeah, And when they go gettheir money for their rent or food
for their kids or something, it'snot there. It's their accounts have been
drained, and then it takes forever, because a glacial pace of the state
takes forever to get that money backright and then when somebody files a claim
saying that they're ripped off, you'reright, takes a long time, and
(16:45):
those people don't have a long timeneed that money right now, I mean
right away. So then that wason Wednesday, and then Thursday I was
undercover again with an organized retailed crimetask force. And that was fascinating because
that I was told by one ofthe sergeants on the crew on the Major
Crimes Bureau that this could very wellbe the largest retailed crime bust they've done
(17:10):
in history. Wow, for them, all this stuff that's been ripped off
from Costco and and I you know, Target and all these September of last
year, they have recovered eleven anda half million dollars worth of merchandise,
which is probably a tast drop inthe bucket compared to what's been stolen nationally,
probably, but the largest part ofit here in a good county.
That's just in La County. Elevenand a half million. You know.
(17:32):
I was talking to Krozier and Bellletthe other day I in the you know,
in the last thirty years, upuntil I don't know, maybe three
years ago, I may have seensomebody steal something significantly from a store,
maybe once or twice. I seeit now two or three times a week.
Well, here's the new wrinkle onthis that I learned yesterday morning,
(17:52):
and that is it was a tristate effort. So people thieves in Arizona
and Nevada are bringing their merchandise toLa County and they're storing it in warehouses.
And then the people members of thesesmash and grab crews and these retail
crime crews, they clean up theproduct, they get it ready for resale,
(18:15):
and it's being stored in these twohuge warehouses. So they're well organized,
very well organized. So this bustyesterday was a big part of that.
And in fact, I got aguy that was on the raid yesterday
with me had just texted me backand said they arrested eight adults, seven
of whom were men, one woman, and they got them for organized retail
(18:38):
theft and receiving stolen property. Sowhat happens is that this millions of dollars
worth of merchandise is being brought infrom Nevada and Arizona to La County and
you know why they're bringing it hereeasy to sell. Well that but and
it's a gateway city, I mean, to everywhere. But if they get
caught, oh no punishment. Yeah, that's why. That's the wrinkle.
(19:02):
You know, they they've and notjust because of the District Attorney in La
County's policies, but because of theState of California's policies. You know.
I noticed I learned from a friendof mine who lives in Burbank and he's
doing a deep dive on people stealingand robbery and all that stuff. And
he said, if if you getbusted outside of a Walmart and you've stolen
(19:26):
merchandise, the cop will write youa ticket and let you go right there.
Yeah, that's part of the thing. It's in. That's why,
like for instance, you know,I know we're going to talk about it
in a bit on the all theprotests. Yeah, there's a lot made
about what's going to really happen tothese students because of the culture in Los
Angeles and Los Angeles County. Allr let's take a break and come back
and talk about what will happen tothese kids. Okay, well, will
(19:48):
happen to these protesters? And I'msure you have some inside information what happened
at UCLA. I've got some viewsfrom insiders. Okay, we'll talk about
the when come back? Is thatcool? Sure? Okay? All right.
Steve Gregory's with us and he's tired, so give him a break.
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior ondemand from KFI AM six forty R.
(20:11):
Steve Gregory joins us. He hasa ton of connections with LAPD, Sheriff's
Department, other divisions, police organizations, police forces. He knows them all.
So what is the inside? Whatdo you hear about these UCLA students
that were arrested? And are theygoing to have a police record? Well
and arrest record odds No, Oddsare that they will not have a record
(20:32):
of any kind. First of all, most of the things that they were
detained for or booked for, ormisdemeanors, and I'm sure it was more
of a book and release, iswhat I was told. Is mostly a
book and release and citation or citationrelease. And they're not gonna there's nothing's
going to happen to So the biggestpunishment might be suspended or expelled from school.
Yeah, so I think the biggestpunishment's going to come from the university,
(20:53):
right, not from the city attorneyor the county attorney. And I
don't know how many. One thingwe did not get from law enforcement was
the breakdown of felonies and misdemeanors ifany of them were felonies. Anything on
the violent side is going to bea felony. But who's going to pay
for all that overtime? Well,UCLA pay. UCLA will be on the
tap for all of that because theyrequested the help be built for it.
(21:15):
Yeah, I'll be built for it. And that's millions of dollars. I
won't say millions of dollars in theot because remember UCLA also told LAPD to
stand down, right, is oneof the big issues. Yeah, and
they're the president, the chancellor orwhatever they're calling this dope. He was
blaming the cops. Well, it'sfunny because when I, you know,
(21:37):
talk to somebody from the the union, one of the union people that represents
the college cops and they're like,we don't do anything like this on this
scale without direction from leadership administration,And we basically are on standby until somebody
tells us something, and we weretold not to engage. We were told
(22:00):
kind of the parameters. We weretold not to call in any help.
And then at one point they did, remember there were two tactical alerts last
week, right, one on Wednesday, one on Saturday. Right, the
Saturday one was the radical one.Yeah, that's when it started getting nasty.
And but that was the one thatlaped backed off on later on because
the college is like, no,we don't need you after all. But
(22:22):
but I've never seen it where theyblame the cops both ways. If they
don't show up, they blame themas they share they're damned if they do,
damned if they don't. They they'realways the easy escapegoat. Everyone's like
telling demanding that there's no there's demandingthat this happened, that happens. It's
like the cops don't do this ontheir own. And remember, even though
this is a state institution, itdoesn't mean the LAPD has the jurisdiction just
(22:45):
to roll right into the campus andstart, you know, taking people into
custody. That's not how they doit. They cannot enter that facility as
a peace officer without permission from leadership, right, And actually, what's weird
about it is like a state patrolperson a SHP, they have peace officer
powers to do anything anywhere in thestate of California. Okay, But if
(23:07):
there's no punishment for these kids orthese protesters, and I shouldn't call them
kids, there were something there,you know, in the late twenties,
early thirties. But if there's nopunishment, they're not going to get a
police record. It's a misdemeanor.They're not going to have anything on their
you know, no criminal arrest record. Then what's to deter them from doing
this all over again if they getexpelled? Okay, but if they get
expelled, who cares? If theydon't care, who why can't they do
(23:30):
it again? To borrow? Well, here's the thing. It depends because
if you've got someone that's going toone of these universities, presumably they want
a really nice job, a reallygood job, and if they get down
the line. This is the thingthat makes me laugh about people that do
things like this when at a youngage, right, because in social media,
the crazy things they post on socialmedia, because somewhere down the line
that's going to come back and bitethem in the ass. Sure. And
(23:52):
so when they're sitting down at thatreally high end job and they're looking through
and they're being vetted and background checked, and they're like, well, wait
a minute, what happened here college? You were suspended or expelled? Right?
And you know what's also a bigred flag are people that don't have
any kind of social media footprint.That means that in the past they've either
(24:14):
ignored social media, which is weirdfor kids, or they have so much
crap on that they decided to justeliminate their footprint. Sure, and and
there are companies out there that makegood money scrubbing your your footprint. Yeah,
that's what they do. But Imean, I point to this.
This is interesting because UCLA Gaza Protestgroup says LAPD and CHP brutalized students in
(24:37):
orchestrated effort during encampment eviction. Right. That's crazy. Yeah, that's uh
this You know what this all remindedme of. And I think one of
the reasons why I was triggered wasthe Occupy LA Right, and you were
on that. Oh my god,I was embedded in inside of that with
LAPD. Were you embedded when theywhen they got together at Dodger Stadium,
Yes, and then took the busesdown. That's the tip, by God
(25:00):
is they were staging at Dodger Stadium. So when I drove over there,
I was like, holy hell.A lot of cops, a lot of
buses, a lot of cops,fifteen hundred cops. And then they used
a secret tunnel to get into cityHall. They did a trojan horse,
which came from an idea from theOakland Police Department. If memory serves,
it was Oakland or San Francisco.Somebody had gone up there in a conference
and they got into a conversation andthe guy was coming back LAPD. I'm
(25:23):
sure if I get this wrong,I'll be reminded. But the guy,
he kind of laid out the planand he said, hey, why don't
we utilize the underground tunnels that they'vehad down there for utility work and whatnot.
The tunnel goes from the east eastCity Hall, under the street and
up through City Hall. And theydid. They staged and they went through
there, and they come up andthen I'll never forget this, never forget
(25:45):
standing right there on that sidewalk infront of the what would be the west
entrance to City Hall, and allof a sudden, those doors bust wide
open, and all those LPD officersjust come running out like ants coming out
of an ant hill. And theyjust took everyone by surprise. And then
it expected because they came from behindthem. Yeah. And then because they
were they had the they were doinga line because they had a skirmish line
(26:08):
over there to distract them because theythought that's where the activity was going to
come from, by the LAPD headquarters. So they all had their little spears
and their little uh you know,I just think about it now, you
just ted the stupid little bamboo spearslike king ching ching, and they don't
they're not doing anything. And theirbig trick was to fill the uh the
(26:30):
water bottles with urine. They weredoing urine bombs. Right. What was
that protest over again? It wasthe Wall Street the one percenters. Okay,
remember the one percenters that were controllingeverything? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I that one. At least theythey had some self interest. I
don't know what the self interest iswith this. You know, in Kent
State, you're two younger, rememberthat. But in Kent State when they
were protesting the Vietnam War and you'renot Yes, well, they had some
(26:52):
self interest in that because they didn'twant to go to Vietnam and get killed.
Yeah, there was this. Thiswas a lot more fractured in its
messaging. And this is why Ithink when you really explore and do a
deep dive on what happened here andwhy it happened, you're going to see
that that these students, and veryfew of them were students, by the
way, you know that I thinkif that most of them are professional agitators,
(27:18):
and this is coming straight from intel, from law enforcement intel. So
and what happens is they have avery orchestrated and very funded effort to perpetuate
somebody else's ideology. And that's that'sprecisely what was happening here. You know.
Moe Kelly had a great comment lastnight. He called them the dumbest
smart kids he's ever seen. Yeah, and here's the thing, and when
these dumbest smart kids start pulling thesekinds of stunts, it's going to stay
(27:41):
with them in some way, whetherit's law enforcement side or whether it's university
education side, it will stick withthem. Now, some people are hailing
them as heroes right, and that'sfine, you know, but I'll just
tell you that this it's like theit's like if anyone knows the rap.
It's one of the best Hollywood publicationsout there. What's her name, Sharon
(28:03):
Waxman is doing this. The headlineis how the student pro Palestine movement blew
it and she said they boiled downto humanitarian aid and banana allergies, which
is it's a great story. Okay. So while that in camp it was
going on, there were some kidsthat were reported to have had a banana
allergy. So you had to checkin yep before you went into that camp
(28:26):
in and show people you didn't havebananas with you. According to this story,
at UCLA, somebody declared a bananaallergy. What a soft crowd.
Anytime you needed to enter into thatarea that gets that hot zone, if
you will, you had to declarethat you had no banana banana stuff on
you. No, it's documented here. And then I know, I believe
here's the list, the updated supplylist. I know we're running late.
(28:48):
This was a supplylist at another collegecampus. These are the things they were
putting out that they needed, desperatelyneeded, they needed tourniquets, bandages,
tweezers, CPR masks, HIV tests, dental dam Plan B pills, chapstick
Plan B pills. So they don'tmean what they were doing to at the
(29:08):
time they were having sex in thosetents. You think, Wow, they
had some downtime. That's wild shoes, Buddy. I appreciate you guy coming
in. Say how to your dad, your beautiful dad who's eighty eight,
eighty eight, eighty eight years oldand still driving. I mean's sharp as
a tack. Wow, I believeyou got a long life out of your
buddy. I don't know about that. You're cursed, im. You know
this is a job, it's highrisk, glow rewards. You're the best.
