Episode Transcript

(00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you'relistening to the Conway Show on demand on
the iHeartRadio app. Okay, allright, KFI AM sixty, it is
the Conway Show. Yes, gogo, go, go, go gadget
all right, that's what happens whenyou work at home. You know,
I'm sorry, all right, Relyon kf I AM six forty. One

(00:23):
of our next guests is a guywho I run into all the time in
Studio City and Teluca Lake and usuallywearing that Maga hat. Ladies and gentlemen,
Dave kons Hi, you Bob,Well, I'm well, I'm well,
Tim. I usually have a lotof car hats. They usually have
the little car brands on them.But thanks. It's as always going to

(00:44):
I keep hoping i'll bump into you. And low's her home depot? Yes,
I think I go to those placesas much as you do. What
is your home depot? You're theGlendale Wanner burbot on Flower. That's he
used to you know, it usedto be the one that nobody knew about.
And the first year it was open, you could breeze right in there,
even on ten o'clock on a Saturdaymorning because it was kind of tucked
away Glendale. Now the secrets outnow, no Burbank the one on the

(01:07):
black Room when they first opened it. Yeah, but I also like the
one on Sherman Way. That's agood one, and the one in Glendale
right off the Sam Fernando is alsoanother nice one. I love that.
M I'm really picky about my cardoors, and those other ones have too
many big trucks in them that BGup my car. So I yeah,
I know, I'm good. Hey, I read a story. I know
you're a car guy. Is ittrue that Ford or one of these big

(01:30):
manufacturers I think it was Ford didThey're they're losing one hundred and thirty thousand
dollars for every EV that they make. I well, you know, those
things are hard to quantify it becauseyou remember, they have to make huge
capital investments up front to design andbuild this thing. I mean, I'm
sure any car that comes out,you know, they lose money the first
couple of years. You know,when Chevrolet redesigns a Corvette, you know,

(01:53):
there's a lot of money that goesinto making it, and they don't
make any many in the first year. So I think sometimes those things get
blown out of proportion. We're seeinga sea change in how a car is
made, so they're literally starting fromscratch with cars like the Machi and the
F one fifty Lightning and the otherstuff they have coming up. So you
know, that could be true,but it's more of a you got to
put an asterisk after it. Igot a question for you, and I'm
glad you brought this up. Whena car, a new car is designed,

(02:15):
how big is the staff that's workingon Is one guy working on the
trunk, another guy working on theengine, another guy working on the dashboard,
another guy working on the lights.Well, first, first, you
have a design team in it ata studio, and you may have six
to twelve people just working on thedesign. I mean, you know,
if you're sort of low on thetotem pole, maybe you just got out
of design school. Okay, youdesigned the knobs or the spinometer, you

(02:38):
know. And then but you know, the senior guy gets to do the
exterior design, and then people doyeah, lights, tail lights. Then
there's engineers, and there are hundredsand hundreds of engineers working on all aspects
of a car. So there's abig workforce behind each new car that comes
out, and I heard a lotof cars are coming back, they're being
repolled, a lot of people aremissing payments, and it's a good time
to buy a used car. Trueor false. Well, the longest time,

(03:00):
it was a bad time to buya used car because it was such
a shortage. Now that everything's catchingup and maybe people have gotten behind on
their payments or they got kind ofa high interest rate. Yeah, it
might be a good time to goshopping and feel free to text me like
you always do when you're looking ata car at ten thirty. I'll always
do that, Bunny, Hey,I got it. I am not plugging
away here. They're not an advertiser, but I have to tell you,

(03:22):
as being a return customer and abig fan, I love CarMax. I
have a coworker who is a realcar guy, and he has bought several
cars at CarMax over the years,and he's really picky and he's had great
experiences all around. The only reasonhe didn't buy his most recent car at
carmaxs because he couldn't find the onehe wanted and he got it from Carvana,

(03:45):
which it was even another state,and they shipped it out here.
For free. So he was prettyhappy about that. But yeah, I've
never really heard bad things about CarMax. I think they do a good job.
You know, fixed price and warrantyand everything else. You know,
the next best thing to buy ina new car maybe. And also,
you know, I bought a carfrom them and then I didn't like it
after a couple of weeks and Isaid, you know, I can I

(04:05):
exchange it for something else. Ididn't know what the rule was or anything.
And the guy says, bring itback. We'll give you every dime,
including the warranty that you paid for. I'm like what And I returned
it and they gave me every singlecent back. That's amazing. You remember
Cal Worthington used to say he hada ten day trial exchange because you don't
like the car for any reason,bring it back. But I think Cal

(04:26):
made you then buy another car withthe money that you got back. You
didn't just get to walk away withcash. So yeah, that really says
a lot about car Max. Iwalked away with a check, and what
I did with the check is threemonths later, I bought my daughter a
car there because I had such agreat experience. Well that's the thing.
And you know, we talked oncebefore about you had a bad experience at
a car dealership, try to buysomething, And you know what I tell

(04:46):
you, You know, the sourtaste of a bad experience, the great
taste of a good experience. You'renow a customer there for life. And
that's that's overlooked by a lot ofplaces, unfortunately. And I'll tell you
the two things I love about it. One is that when you walk around
the lot, nobody follows you,Nobody comes up and attacks you when you
walk around a car Max lot,And that is worth its weight in gold

(05:11):
or whatever is popular nowadays. Well, I used to host a bank across
the street from a large car dealership. I'd go to the atm on Saturday
mornings and I'd turn around and we'llstart walking back to the street, and
there were like ten guys lined upin front of the showroom in their dress
shirts and ties, with their handsin their pockets. I'm thinking, why
would I walk ont of that lot? I feel like a Zebras Srengeti And
those are all the lions lined up. So that's another good thing about CarMax.

(05:33):
Right, But why don't dealerships andyou know, I went to buy
my daughter a car, and I'mnot going to tell you what dealership it
was, but it was a brand. It was a new car lot.
And I walked onto the lot andthe guy says, hey, let me
help you out. And I said, buddy, I said, let me
have your business card, and whenwe're ready to buy a car, I
will text you or call you andyou'll be my guy. And he says

(05:53):
no, he goes, I gotnothing to dow. I'll help you out.
And I said, really, Isaid, I'd love to just walk
around with my daughter and not havehave you know, a guy trying to
sell me something. He goes,no, no, he goes, I've
got nothing to do. I'll justwalk around with you. And I walked
off a lot and I said,buddy, look I'm not that kind of
guy. And I laughed. Andthey lost the sale because I was going

(06:13):
to buy a car on that lot. And the problem is he was under
pressure from his sales manager to nevermiss a sale. And also the other
salespeople if they see him, youknow, not around you, they go,
oh, that guy, I'm gonnago I'm gonna go get that guy,
and they'll run over to you there, so he was you know,
they have rotation like, Okay,who's up, all right? Next guy
that walks onto the lot, youknow, he's yours does but that that

(06:34):
business model doesn't work for me,and it doesn't work, you know for
most people I know. And Ithink it's an older business model. And
you know, just look at howthey dressed. Remember, you know,
years ago that cliche was the carsalesman had the plaid sport jacket and the
white shoes and the white belt,you know, and they were a little
overdressed and a lot of cologne andpinky ring. Yeah, you're likely to
see him in polo shirts and alittle more casually dressed. So I think

(06:57):
it's more of a relaxed atmosphere.And I think the better dealerships they learn
these practices and they keep the customershappy that way. Hey, you want
to talk about a Long Beach ElectrifiedExpo in Long Beach? Is that right?
I was there a good part ofthe day today. If you're looking
at an electric car, it's atthe Long Beach Convention Center all weekend.
You can go. You can drivea number of new electric cars. Tesla

(07:18):
is there, Toyota bnw Akia andit's a great chance to see what's new
in electric cars. And you knowwhat, have you seen a Rivian on
the road. They have the papertruck and they have the an suv.
They have a new small one,a more affordable one, and it's there
on display. It's called the Rthree X. It's the first time I
think it's been really displayed in public, so you can check that one out.

(07:39):
They got scooters, e bikes,motorcycles, all kinds of stuff,
everything electric. Yeah, it's likeit's ten bucks to get in, or
I'm sorry, twenty bucks to getin, ten dollars to part kids under
five or free and walk around andyou can test drive some electric cars.
I was out there effect my storyon it's going to be airing pretty soon
here on Channel seven. So it'sa really fun about This is their third
year at the Long Beach Convention Centerand it's kind of have like an auto

(08:00):

is running out of inks, soI'd only printed half this. But it
says you're you're hanging out with boysand Chino Hills this weekend. I'm hanging

motorcycle people. Ah okay, Ibet that didn't print. Get that printer

(08:24):

their most famous students who went thereand got his life turned around when he
was a teenager and his mother couldn'thandle him. And ever since, about
two thousand and eight, a bunchof local Porsche guys said, hey,

(08:45):

our boys, one of our guys, Steph Fush, stephous one of the
nicest guys in uh In radio.If not in the valley, that's true.
I don't know about Torrents, true, that's true. Or Hawthorn.

with the gas station. Whatever happenedat the gas station? And then your
boy Trump gets wiped out yesterday.No, don't no, yeah, he
got wiped out for sure. Okay, but what happened at the gas station,

(10:58):
if it's what I'm thinking you're alludingto, they actually happened at grocery
store. A grocery store. I'msorry, Yeah, yeah, Ellio told
me gas station. But I meanthat's you know, yeah, so essentially
what happened was I was, youknow, getting my stuff. I had
to. I don't always go tothe local spot here, but if I
have, you know, a gatorade, powerade, you know, where do

(11:20):
you go? You a Whole Foods? Guy? Vonn Well Well at ten
or eleven o'clock, it's Vaughan's Okay, Vons are rouphs, right, but
it was Avs And so I wentthere and uh, you know, it
was getting checked out. Everything's cool, you know, the the girl was
really nice. But there was thesetwo girls that were I don't know,
maybe like I said to Bellio,like twenty one, twenty two, okay,

(11:46):
they were just you know, talkingin English and I can hear them,
okay, and did they were theywhite? Black, Hispanic, Asian
Latina? Okay yeah, and uh, by the way, it's Latins,
but go ahead Latins. Yeah unlesswe know the direct origin. Yeah.
Oh come on, Noel, stepin for that about Latin x there.

(12:11):
Oh yeah, that's great. Yeah, and uh yeah, they were just
you know, caring on about theirday. Attractive young ladies in my opinion,
yeah, okay, all right,yeah, and then yours is different,
but go ahead anyway. Yeah,so I'm I'm putting everything on the

(12:31):
belt. Everything is getting checked out. And then they switched to Spanish.
And they, I think because theway I the way that I look,
they didn't think that I knew thatI would understand Spanish. Yeah, they
thought you were a white guy exactly. And so and by the way,
I did for the first years youworked here, Yeah, a lot of
a lot of people, and uhyeah, they talked about how ugly it

(12:58):
was. Oh my god, highI dressed and they just ragged on me.
Are you kidding me? I didn'tknow that. I thought they just
said. I thought they just saidthey didn't like your shirt. I didn't
know they took shots at you.Oh yeah, they they just I mean
it. It brought me down.Oh I look, you may never forget

(13:18):
it. Yeah, and uh it'sit's worse because they they didn't know that.
I know that I could hear,you know, what they were saying,
and I understood what term did theyuse? Oh oh, can you
say it on the air? Ican say it on the air. But
I mean, it's it's just aswear word. No, it's not a

(13:39):
swear word. It's just they werelike, oh, minich, it's not
fail. Oh like they were tellingme that almost looked that I look poor.
Oh my god, you know,like it was essentially like that's the
way that they described it in aSpanish term. Oh that's horrible. Yeah.
So I just was like, allright, well that's a great way
to end my night. Oh mygod, that's did you end up speaking

(14:01):
Spanish back to them. Yeah,did you say anything to them? No,
that's what I'm saying. I'm soshy, and so, you know,
against confrontation, I just left italone. My gosh, that's wild,
buddy. I'm sorry that happened toyou. Yeah, you know,
you know people are mean. Yeah, people are mean. Yeah. And

(14:22):
and so you left there and thatmust have sort of rocked your world because
you know you understood what they hadto say. Oh yeah, no,
I I just I'll be real witheveryone. I went home or went home.
I was driving home. I startedcrying. Wow, it really hurt
my soul, like it sucks.Oh that's the worst. No, it

(14:46):
didn't feel good. And because itbrought me back to when I was bullied,
when I was like, so,yeah, was that bring everyone down
on a Friday? No? No, no, no, I get it.
But was that like rock bottom?Are you going to try to improve
the law? I sorry, Idon't know what to look. You know,
there wasn't a point of the storyI'm gonna I mean, I don't

(15:09):
know. You don't have to,you know, that's right, change for
somebody else, that's right, RobinJohn, look at you. Robin is
living proof of that. Yeah,Robin's living proof of that. I don't
know if you covered this, butdon't you think he should have acknowledged that
he understood what they said. Yeah, you got to get my spoke Spanish,
you got to get my yo.No tang t is that? I

(15:35):
think it means I don't the bluepens and the fried chicken. No,
it means a time for you.Yeah, just to let them know.
I think that is kind of ateaching moment. They're teenagers. To let
them know I heard what you said. He doesn't have say anything mean back
or you know, but just toacknowledge that I understood what you said.
Yeah. Or it's also a lessonif anybody is listening right now, if

(15:58):
you're going to comment in a differentlanguage, sometimes we know what you're saying.
And that's why I thought of mygrandma, because she was blonde hair,
blue eye, blue eyes, andso when she was at the track,
she would make all these different individualbets and people would talk about her

(16:18):
in Spanish, but she because she'sa fireball, she would turn around and
tell them off inside and so shewould just let like let it And I
just don't have that kind of youknow, by the way, that happened
to me at the racetrack at Santannitayears ago. I got my tickets,
my trifectors, my exactives, whateverin the window, and then I moved

(16:41):
next door to settle all my tickets. And the guy at the window goes,
Oh, that guy's the worst gamblerin the world. Whatever he bet
on, don't bet on what hebet on, he sucks. And I
looked at the guy and go,buddy, I speak English, he said
in English. But so tell memore about the blond hair, blue eye
grandma. She sounds a hot sheshe. I mean she was back in

(17:06):
the day, in the sixties,she she, I mean a lot of
Mexican singers, they liked her alot. My thing, but uh no,
she you know, because she camefrom Argentina. So that's why I
look the way I do, becausewe I actually went to Argentina when I
was like twenty one, and soeveryone looks like me. But I know

(17:29):
that Spanish. Yeah, so everyonehas blue eyes, green eyes, clear
you know, and and uh fairskin, ah alright, and so but
but here I stick out because itlooked like I'm just like a white guy.
But I know how to speak Spanishbecause you know that's my background.
Ah okay, but buddy, I'msorry that that way that you had to

(17:51):
experience that. But I'm glad youtalked about it on the air because maybe
it'll get some other person not todo that. Yeah. No, absolutely,
because it's it never feels good.Uh, and especially because they thought
they were being covert about it.But you know, right, and despite
what those chicks said, I thinkyou're hot, thank you. Yeah,

(18:12):
Bellio does too, and Robin yeah, and Angel nothing out of Crozier yet
and lindsay, I don't notice thattype of stuff. I don't care about
looks. He's a beautiful person inside, that's all that's right. That's right.

(18:34):
These are Steph fus Man. That'shorrible, dude. I'm it's similar.
Something happened to me. I wasat a bar in Santa Monica.
I hate to do that. Youone up, you hear, but I
was at a bar in Santa Monicaand my buddy comes over and goes,
hey, those two girls at thebar said that you look like sting,

(18:56):
you know from what a sting fromthe police to police police, And so
I walk up, you know,I'm ten feet high at that point,
you know, it looks like Sting. Walk up to him talking to him.
I said, hey, so youguys think I look like Sting And
they looked at my shirt and theysaid, no, that looks stinks.
I'm sorry, remember exactly where Iwas. I'm sorry that deflation bathroom.

(19:22):
No, I ended up killing bothof them. All right, Wow,
that's something. Yeah, the wordsout now and I've gotten to wait with
it. Sorry, Stephanie, shehad to go through that. Buddy,
you're a giant style. You're abeautiful man. Grocer's right, you're a
beautiful man for everyone that listened toit. Ye, be respectful of people,

(19:45):
That's right. That's the lesson today. Be respectful, thank you.
Or use a different language. Yeah, Spanish, Spanish? Yeah, were
talking in a tongue or you know, or Latin or something. Listening to
Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFIAM six forty. What a story from

(20:06):
steph osh Man. That is wild. If you missed it, you can
go back and listen to it.We just played it, but these broad
strokes. Sorry, he's in asupermarket. Two girls were talking in English,
then they talked in Spanish about howhe wasn't dressed well or I don't
know, it wasn't, you know, as hot as we think he is.

(20:29):
And he understood it in Spanish,and he got emotional on the way
home. That's horrible. Yeah,that's not okay, that's horrible to do
to it a person. However,though, I look, he works in
radio and they're shopping at a market. So he's the bigger guy. Yeah,

(20:51):
the he's got a better gig,better life going on. So he
works with Tim Conway. Right,that's right, that's right. And and
he came in and he said duringthe break he came in, he said,
hey, he said, there's onething though that I learned here,
you know, on radio. AndI thought, oh, this guy's going

(21:12):
to tell me something that I've saidthat he's learned from doing the show.
I'm like, oh, well,what have I taught you? And he
goes, well, Woody always says, Woody, Okay, I learned on
from the Woody Show. I said, okay, okay. I had to

(21:36):
sting, are you okay? Iunderstood what he said? He said it
in English. Maybe you should havesaid something back to him in the moment,
you know, I just want toget my Hogends and get out my
Vanilla Hoggen Does you know? HoggenDows was on sale the other day at

(21:57):
Ralph's, and so I bought tenof them. Is buy one, get
one free, and I like thesmall hogan Dants. But I bought all
vanilla and I bring them home andmy wife and daughter are like, what,
why do you have so much icecream? I like vanilla a Haagendas.
She said, yeah, but youbought only vanilla. You bought ten

(22:18):
of them and they're all the sameflavor. I said, yeah, that's
what guys do. Guys know whatthey like. Guys wear the same shoes
they were wearing when they're in highschool. They have the same haircut,
same pants, same shirt, samecar, same everything. Guys realize what
they like and they stick with it. They do. I know a guy
who wears stan Smith tennis shoes andhe've he's been wearing stan Smith tennis shoes

(22:44):
since high school and he has nothingelse in his closet. He has one
pair of dress shoes and the otherare thirty pair some mostly older pair of
Stan Smith tennis shoes. He likesthem. That's what he buys, and
he always buys a new pair likeevery six months. He's a guy's.
The guys do never any different.All right, let's talk about these.

(23:07):
We heard a little bit about stephUsh's grandmother blonde, blue eyes. I
like that, But glamour is Grandma's. They're shattering, shattering stereotypes. How
about this with the grandmothers. Grandmother'sare a big deal. I think so
happy, Lula Yer, we bringthat lunar chair. They call themselves Glama's,

(23:30):
glamorous granny now sense regional grandma.By the way, this comes up
every once in a while, likeevery five years, there's a tour of
women who call themselves like glamor orhis grandma's or granny's, you know,
dandy granny's whatever, and then it'squickly fades away their real name. The

(23:56):
Grant Avenue Follies a senior dance troupemade about eleven women ages sixty seven to
eighty eight from San Francisco's Chinatown.Okay, all right, I remember seeing
a tour. I was in Milwaukeewith the buddy of mine because the drinking
it was eight drinking age was eighteenin Wisconsin and he was living in Chicago

(24:17):
at the time, and the drinkingage was twenty one, so we had
to drive to Milwaukee to get tolegally buy beer. And we walked into
a bar. I think it wasa strip bar, but it doesn't.
It wasn't an obvious one when wewalked in, and the Coupe Deville tour
was in town, and it's womenwho were sixty five plus and still taking

(24:40):
their clothes off in front of everybody, And I thought that was kind of
a cool deal. Niche niche,I'd say, giant fans made of feathers.
Yeah, right, but are real? Is it niche or niche niche?
Well, niche way, okay,all right. But the guys were
there that were there, they werebig fans of the coup Deville tour.

(25:03):
Single guys, a lot of singleguys. Just because you're a senior.
Every time I see a coup Deville, you think of that tour. I
think of that. Yes, Ithink that's why they did it. You
know, the Coupdaville Tour. Seniorladies. Here's sixty five plus still taking
it off. Just because you're asenior. You don't have to lay around
the house in your pajamas all day. I think you do. I think

(25:26):
you should. Yeah, you definitelyshould, but I think you also do.
Life is almost over, you know, we're just we're in the bottom
of the night, babe. Justbecause you're a senior, you don't have
to lay around the house in yourpajamas all day. Yes you do,
Yes, I would, yeah,sure you would acture, you know at
that point it's kind of gross.I'm done, Yes, exactly. Look

(25:49):
I'm getting to that age as well. I want to sit around in my
nightie. Thank you. It's amantra that Cynthia Yee has been spreading for
twenty one years. After her doctoradvice she get more physical exercise, the
former dancer decided to grab some friendsand form a burlesque troop, taking up
residence at the Clarion Performing Arts Center. Here we go, the Coupe Deville

(26:11):
tours back. What is it thatmade all of you at your age say
I want to be in a burlesquecabaret show? What is it made you?
What was the question here? Whatis it that made all of you
at your age say I want tobe an a burlesque cabaret show? On
Late Late on set Delusion at Billseighty for Brady, we saw that movie

(26:37):
we'd loved it. I think Iwas always intrigued with Burless. My father
was a minister, and so Clarissa. The women were laughing at the setup,
not even the punchline. My fatherwas a minister, and so of

(27:00):
coursa releesque was out of the question. God an't even a joke, it
was a statement. And at halftimethere was a hairball that was cleared.
If you listen again, my fatherwas a minister, okay, and sote

(27:23):
was out of the question, soset up hairball. Rest of the comment.
Their live show is an homage towhat they describe as the Golden Age
of Chinatown, the forties, fifties, and sixties, when tourists from all
over the world would come to GrantAvenue for the night Light started in nineteen
thirty eight when this gentleman came toSan Francisco with the idea, I went

(27:47):
to open a nightclub and have allAsian shild Within two years there were six
nightclubs in Chinatown. You said youwere inspired to take up dance because of
an Asian American dancer that you blewup seeing, Dorothy Toy. That's correctly.
When I turned seventeen, I joinedher show as a summer job and

(28:08):
never looked back. There you go, all right, Well, the Coop
Deville tour healthy and touring again,big dog with that tour. You're listening
to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayofrom KFI AM six forty. We have
an update on the rock thrower.Homeless guy throwing rocks on to streets and

(28:29):
freeways. No good to find outwhat's going on with this chap, and
I bet you very little consequences.The shocking video shows the man who appears
to be homeless, picking up rocksand throwing them onto the one ten freeway
from the shoulder near twenty third Street. It happened around three point thirty this
morning. One of the rocks waspretty big, and it appears the motorcyclist

(28:52):
hit it, causing him to crashand slide down the road. You can
see sparks flew, but amazingly,moments later he got up and walked away.
We talked to the photographer who tookthe video, turned round, set
up my shot, and as soonas I set up my shot, within
five or ten seconds, a rockcame onto the freeway and a motorcyclist hit
it. Okay, well, leadsme to ask, why why aren't you

(29:15):
trying to warn traffic instead of justrecording it. I don't know everyone's that
way nowadays. They see a fight, they see kids fighting, instead of
trying to break it up, they'rejust going to record it on video.
I look over off camera and Isee the motorcyclist boom boom boom. So
I grab my camera, go overand I can just get the tail end
of the crash. Lane says hesaw the rock thrower walk away eastbound on

(29:38):
twenty third Street near Figaroa. Itappears at least two other cars got flat
tires because of all the rocks onthe road. One of those drivers actually
just got into town from lax andwas in a rental car. Aah,
welcome to Los Angeles. Your firstexperience is having an a hole throw rocks
at you. Motorcyclists didn't want totalk on camera. I noticed he did

(29:59):
have a GoPro on him. Itwasn't rolling, so we don't have the
crash caught on camera from that angle. Luckily he was okay, Lane says
he didn't call nine. The secondaryand third and fourth element is luckily he
was okay. Yeah, lucky he'sokay, and we didn't have the angle.
He had a go pro I thinkit was a goal pro too.
He didn't have it rolling. Hedidn't have a memory card in there.

(30:22):
We couldn't get it. We triedit from another angle. I have an
old JVC. We tried to getit from that angle at any but we
couldn't get it. How was themotorcycle rider? Oh, I guess he's
okay, He's fine. Luckily hewas okay. Lane says he didn't call
nine one one, but gave hisfootage to California Highway Patrol. He says
drivers, including the motorcyclist, alsodidn't call police to report the incident.

(30:45):
I wonder how often that happens.You know, we hear all these stats
about homeless fires and crime and stabbingson Metro, But I wonder how many
people have been either stabbed or punchedor accosted or you know, approached and
yelled at, spat upon that didn'treport it. I bet you it's triple

(31:06):
or quadruple of how many people itactually did report it. We reached out
to ChB about the incident, andthey say, this isn't the first time
this has happened. That's where wehave to put in the question of we
got to have a victim, soyou know, we we hope it comes
forward and we would take it fromthere. By this time we can at
least identify who the person is,yeah, and make sure is that person
that's the same guy in the videoWild City. We live in gang Wild

(31:30):
Wild City? All right. TopangaCanyon has been closed for a long time
since the rock slides and all therain we had this past winter. Looks
like Topanga Canyon reopens. The boulevardis reopening, and let's see about the
canyon itself. This is really amajor announcement from Governor Newsom because Topanga Canyon
Boulevard is a main artery for residentsto get to the coast, and the

(31:52):
road closure here really caused a lotof long detours. So now it is
scheduled to reopen months ahead of time. The road was shut down because of
a landslide after storms battered the area, causing a lot of damage, including
dirt rocks and a boulder blocking theroadway. This roadway is also known as
State Route twenty seven, running frompch to the one eighteen Freeway, and

(32:13):
it's heavily traveled. It's beautiful,it really is. Disclosure has been impacting
local businesses and residents have been forcedto take alternate routes with very long commute
times as well while this has beenclosed. But the good news is this
will all reopen on Sunday. Bothlanes will be open, and again this
is months ahead of schedule. Veryvery good. Caltrans knocked that out for

(32:35):
us. So an atta boy toCaltrans. All right. Charles Barkley is
in the news, one of myfavorite guys to watch. Interesting chap.
What's going on with him? AndTNT? How's morale? Charles Morale sucks?
H Lane and simple? You know, I just feel so bad for
the people I work with Dan youknow, you know these people have families.

(32:58):
He's talking about Dan Patrick and it'she's talking about TNT, Turner News
Television, I believe it is orTurner Network Television possibly losing the NBA.
Well and his show Inside the NBAwith Shack and oh, that's a great
show that Kenny. Oh, that'sit. That's the only reason to watch
NBA is to watch those guys.It's a bummer. If they lost that,

(33:21):
it'd be terrible. You know,these people I work with. They
screwed this thing up clearly. Youknow, my two favorite wines are ingle
Nook and Opus, And it's sofun that we just want the best studio
show. But these foods turn usfrom Ingle Nook and Opah's Enter, Damn
Bone Farm and Ripple. It's crazy. You're actually angry. I am,
you know, Dan, it's sointeresting. I've been spending a lot of

(33:44):
time with the crew lately. Ernie, you're actually angry. Yeah, Ernie's
been there thirty two years. Kenny'sbeen there twenty seven. I've been there
twenty four. But think about that. Some of the people I work with,
they bought their new boys there andto say, hello, old of
us, you're actually angry. Yes, he's trying to tell you. Yes,
they bought him in in high schoolwhen they graduated and now they've already

(34:05):
graduated from college. You're actually angry, right, So, yeah, I'm
angry people who like you know,they're part of my family, to be
honest with you. So and Ifeel bad for those guys. But how
did you guys screw it up?How did TNT mess this up? Yeah,
they're actually angry. Well, Ithink the first thing is you know
they came out and said we didn'tneed the NBA. M you kind of

(34:30):
do if you're covering the NBA,kind of need the NBA. You're actually
angry, that's right. So Ithink that probably pissed Adam Off. I
don't know that, but I'm saying, like you don't. I think he's
talking about Adam Silver, the commissionerof the NBA. So I think that
probably pissed Adam Off. I don'tknow that, but I'm saying like you
don't, because you know, whenwe merge, that's the first thing our

(34:52):
boss said, we don't need theNBA. Oh no, you're actually angry.
Well, he don't need it,but the rest of the people meet
Kinish Sec and Ernie and the peoplewho worked there, we need it.
Yes, I need it too.I love that show with these guys.
You're actually angry. I was listeningto Mad Dog Russo the other days,
like, oh, the deal's overwith is already going to NBC. So

(35:15):
I don't know what to believe.So it sucks for the people, for
all of us. Yeah, I'mgoing to miss that. I'm going to
miss that. Charles Barkley and thewhole crew there I'm not a big NBA
fan, but whenever they were onTV halftime or pregame, postgame talking about
the game, I'd sit there andwatch. Yeah. I watched that show

(35:36):
more than I watched basketball. Yeahanymore, it's so good. I'm with
you, and Dan Patrick has aquestion for you, Belly, you're actually
angry, I am, Ernie.I'm pretty upset about it. Yeah,
