(00:00):
It's KFI Am six and you're listeningto the Conway Show on demand on the
iHeartRadio app. That Big Guy seriescomes out tomorrow, Donald Sterling, the
saga of the Clippers owner Clipped Clippedis the name of it? Good name,
good name? All right. Iknow a lot of people listen to
KFI. You're huge, huge fansof Trader Joe's. Trader Joe's is for

(00:26):
some reason, it's really hooked into people live in the valley. And
I remember the original Trader Joe's thatmy dad and my mom used to go
to was the one on Burbank Boulevardnear White Oak, and I think that
was one of the original ones,and tiny, tiny parking lot like they
still have, but it was acool store to go to. And I

(00:47):
remember at the end of the checkoutcounter there there was a big, huge
barrel of chunk chocolate and ah,I used to dream about taking one of
those pieces home. My mom neverbought that crap, but I used to
dream about it. And I rememberTrader Joe's when I was a kid.
For some reason, you would gocheck out your groceries and then you'd have

(01:07):
to back out of the line withyour card to go to your car.
It was never a throughway there.All the other markets had it going on,
but Trader Joe's was odd. You'dput your card in there and then
you'd have to reverse the card outand then go to your car. And
it was weird. It was weird. But they're gonna be eight new Trader
joe Trader Joe's locations in southern California, so they must be kicking ass,

(01:34):
these Trader Joe's because that's a bigdeal, you know, with all this
competition with Vaughn's and Pavilions, Ralph's, Gelson's, and their Trader Joe's is
expanding. I was gonna say,it's nice to hear something's opening and expanding,
that's right. I mean, Idon't know if you saw Rubio's,
Oh my gosh, that mine betternot get closed because it's where I get

(01:57):
my salad like once a week.It's what is it, Mexican food?
Then yeah, at Rubios it looksgreat. It's so good. Yeah,
and they're going to shut a lotof Rubios down. We'll talk about that
story as well. We'll get tothem. But Trader Joe's open them up,
man, open them up. TraderJoe's lovers, you'll want to listen
up here. More stores will becoming to your local areas. Nobody's expanding,

(02:19):
adding two dozen new stores across thecountry, eight of them here in
Southern California. Those stores will belocated in South Pasadena. Okay, here
we go, Here we go withthese cities where the new Trader Joe's are
going to be. So listen.I know a lot of people half assed
listen to radio while you're doing somethingelse, texting or reading or whatever.
But listen to where these new locationsare going to be with Trader Joe's.

(02:39):
Maybe there's one coming to your area. Those stores will be located in South
Pasadena, Northridge, Sherman Oaks,Santa Clarita, Ladera Ranch, Muriata,
Poway, and Sante There you go, did you get them? All?
Those stores will be located in SouthPasadena, South Pasadena, Northridge. North
Ridge is going to get one.Sherman Oaks, Sherman Oaks, Sherman Oaks,

(03:01):
probably on Ventura Boulevard there. SantaClarita, Santa Clarita is going to
pick up another one. I thinkthere's already one out there. Bi Ladera
Ranch, Muriata, Powey and Santi. I think those are all Orange Deep
Orange County. The Ladera Ranch,Ladera Ranch, Beautiful Beautiful Area, dari
Ranch, Murriada, Marietta's getting oneHewey and Santi and Poway and Sante.

(03:23):
Wow. This expansion comes as groceryprices have climbed about twenty five percent over
the last four years. Wow.No opening dates have yet been announced.
All right, that's a that's areally big deal, big big deal,
A brand new Trader Joe's opening upin your neighborhood. All right, we're
talking about this the closing of alot of these restaurants. Rubios, Rubio's

(03:46):
Fresh, I think is what theycall it. Not to be confused with
Ruby's, which also closed. TheRuby's was that burger place where it was
in the mall and you sort ofate, there's nothing else available, or
is it at the end of thepier in Seal Beach. I think they
had one at Huntington Beach and you'dwait in line for a half hour forty

(04:09):
five minutes and it was good becauseit was at the end of the pier
and there was no other restaurants.And so you'd wait, you need a
burger, and you weren't excited aboutit, but you weren't also pissed.
It was sort of average, andthat went away. But this is not
to be confused with Rubies. Thisis different. This is Rubios. Dozens
of Rubio's coastal grill restaurants closed forgood this week in our area. A

(04:30):
spokesperson for the chain, no,wait, Mitbellio, I didn't know this.
That's where you get that salad atRubio's yesh. I didn't know that,
unaware, unaware of where you getyour sound. And then where do
you get your sushi? Uh?Nico Nico? Okay, well, where's
the one you brought in the otherday from the that one that was from

(04:53):
Chevron. But when we go outto dinner, we go to Nico Nico's.
But when I'm working, I goto Chevron. So when John takes
you out, he doesn't take youto Chevron's Sushi. Well I took him
out once and I said, youwant to get some sushi and he's like
yeah, And I pulled in toget some gas and ran in and got
the sushi and he's like what andI'm like, it's really good. Look

(05:16):
at they give you a lot ofa sabi delicious. Man, are you
a gambler? I'm surprised, youknow, I know your dad liked horse
racing and the dogs, the dogtrack. You're dead yep all the time.
But I'm surprised that you didn't reallyget into gambling. Because, man,
if you're eating your second favorite sushiplace is a gas station, you

(05:39):
are a gambler. It's truly good. Ye had any problems? I know,
but I don't know if you cango to an emergency room and explain
to the doctor what happened? Youknow, you know what I mean?
I got bad blowfish? How where'dyou get it? Christ Shell? It's
a new restaurant in town. It'sa gas station. And for Doco,

(06:01):
Lindsay just said, oh, I'dbe so scared. That's really good.
That's right, Sushi at a gasSpicy Tuna. Get the Spicy Tuna where
Chevron or Shell Chevron Chevron Oka saysa total of forty eight California locations have
shut down due to what they callthe rising costs of doing business in the
state. Twenty four Rubios closing out, Bellio, I got I gotta dig

(06:27):
a little deeper here. When whenyou buy sushi ad at a gas station,
do you run through the born ondates on this stuff when it's packaged.
I to be honest, I don'tlook okay, but do you put
your finger like on the plastic tomake sure it's at least, you know,
not room temperatures? I do,make sure it's not sweaty, sweaty?

(06:51):
Yeah? Have you had sweaty gasstation sushi? Yeah? I did
once. And let me tell yousomething. It was spicy in and out.
I'll tell you you, man,oh man, you're what a wild
double life you lived? What whereyou come off as is very conserved,
not politically but just in life.You know, the way you dress,

(07:13):
the way you you don't swear,you don't smoke, you don't drink a
lot, and then you know,you dive into a chevron, into the
freezer and refrigerator session looking for sushi. It's weird to get your fresh fish
from a gas station, but it'sconvenient. It's priced well. I like
the food, I like the prices. I get it. And I only

(07:34):
had one problem. Okay, allright, I get it. I get
but after that problem, and Iknow you're talking about did you go back
afterwards? I have? You have? Okay? All right, so you're
like getting bitten by a shark inthe ocean where you don't really learn.
I mean, you know once ina while, you know you're gonna have
problems, but it's one time outof Like, is it less expensive than

(07:57):
a sushi than a regular sushi bar? It's like a dollar fifty for a
piece for five pieces? Okay?Oh, isn't it a good price.
It's a good price. It's reallyreally icy. Two now, oh yeah,
and you can and you can eatit while you're pumping gas. I
have. Yeah. Twenty four ofthose closures are in San Bernardino, Orange

(08:20):
lleg and Ventura counties. Rubios Freshclosing down. They can't afford it anymore.
The price of food is too high, and then the price of labor
when I went up to twenty bucksan hour. They tried to make it
work and they just couldn't do it. Twenty four of those closures are in
San Bernardino, Orange le and Venturacounties. A company spokespersons spokesperson said in

(08:41):
a statement, the store closures area necessary step in our strategic long term
plan to position Rubios for success foryears to come. All right, So
there are some that are going tostay open, but most of Rubio's Fresh
it turned stale, so they're movingon and that it sucks because it is
a great restaurant. Yeah, it'sgot great reviews. The one out near

(09:03):
you, there's one in Laverne,I believe, yes, Yeah, I
think I've seen them before. I'venot been to Rubio's Fresh, but I
when I saw it last night onthe news, it looked very familiar.
I think. I Yeah, Ithink I went to one on the way
to Maronga. What does that.They used to be called Rubio's Baja Fish
Tacos or something, and then theyrebranded. Oh then it happened there.

(09:24):
Okay, that's the same restaurant.Yeah it is, Oh, okay.
Then there was one in like LakeForest that I went to with. Okay,
that's what it is. I usedto go there with my wife when
I first met her, and Iremember it now. There was a Yeah,
Rubio's Frist that was a great restaurant. You actually know what it's called.
Now it's not Rubio's Fresh or anythinglike that. Called closedod well that

(09:46):
too. Rubio's Coastal Grill is whatit's actually called. Oh that's what they
call it now. Yeah, Rubio'scoastally known as fresh Mexican Grill and Baja
Grill. Like aangel sanyam. IThe food looks great, the chicken looks
great. I always like the Rubiosmyself. Yeah, I got it.
I gotta slide into before they shutthem all down. What the hell's going

(10:07):
on? Closing down these great restaurantslike that. They're opening up, opening
up a you know, New TraderJoe's, but closing down classic restaurants like
that Rubios. You know, alot of people are a lot of great
memories, a lot of great foodcoming out of Rubios. That's too bad.
That's horrible. You're listening to TimConway Junior on demand from KFI AM
six forty. We do a segmentevery Monday at five twenty and it's we've

(10:33):
been titling it for the last sixor seven years. And the title of
the segment, as everybody knows,at five point twenty every Monday, it's
called I'm on your Side Baby.We know the music I'm on your Side.
So we're revamping Okay, I'm onyour Side Baby, and it's all

(10:54):
being brought to you by Advanced Hereone day treatment, life changing results.
Make your appointment today at advanced haairdot com. All right, so I
read this article. A lot ofpeople are on the other side. I'm
on this woman's side. A motherof two sparks a backlash after revealing why

(11:15):
she never returns her cart at ashopping center. And you would think,
oh, all right, so Conway'sgot to be on the side of returning
her cart. He's a big fanof cart n arcs. No, no,
no, no, no, nono. I am now on this
woman's side, at least in thiscase. A woman of two faced a

(11:35):
firestorm of criticism after revealing that sherefuses to return her shopping cart. Leslie
Dobson is her name. Los Angelesbased psychologist or psychiatrist. I think she's
a psychologist and she's a social mediacreator. Hey, like I am.
I'm a social media creator. Shehas over three hundred thousand followers. We're

(11:56):
getting there across a lot of platforms, although BELLI, I think we're over
three hundred thousand with all of ourplatforms. Oh for sure, Yeah,
okay, And we're not even apsychologist, No, we are not.
She is, though anyway she was. She went on TikTok and she said,
quote, I'm not returning my shoppingcart, and you can judge me

(12:16):
all you want. And I'm withher. We have the audio for that.
Yeah, I know. I wasjust going to play it, and
then I thought, well, letme remind Let's see if Bellio will catch
it and remind me. And Idid, Yeah you did. All right.
Here's the audio here the mother oftwo children, and she does not
return her shopping cart for very goodreason. And I'm on her side.

(12:41):
I'm not returning my shopping cart andyou can judge me all you want.
I'm not judging you. I'm notgetting my groceries into my car and getting
my children into the car and thenleaving them in the car right to go
return the cart. So if you'regonna give me a dirty look, oh
you gave the big one at theend, f off. Yeah, wrong

(13:05):
with her. Her name is Leslie, I believe right? Is that?
Her name? Leslie Dobson. It'sMay thirty first, and about six million
people have freaked out over me notreturning my shopping cart because my kids are
in the car. Okay, I'mnot one of them. I'm on your
side, so I want to giveyou some statistics. All right, last
year, two hundred and sixty fivechildren were abducted in parking lots in America.

(13:26):
Do you hear that? Last year, two hundred and sixty five children
were abducted in parking lots in America? Right, So, because everybody's so
uptight with the shopping cart return andI sort of am too, She's supposed
to leave her car running with thekids in the car so the air conditionings
on, and then stroll off toreturn her cart knowing that some idiot,

(13:50):
and there's a lot of idiots inLA, a lot more idiots in LA
now than when I was growing up. Did somebody can come and take her
kids, or take her car withthe kids, just so her cart,
her shopping cart is safe. Getout of here. Half of those were
sexually assaulted. As a single momreturning your shopping cart, you are a
prime for a predator to watch andgrab you. That is one hundred percent

(14:13):
correct what she just said this,Leslie Dobson, is one hundred percent right.
As a single mom returning your shoppingcart, you are a prime for
a predator to watch and grab you. In many states, it's actually illegal
to turn your car on and walkaway. Many comments said that they would
turn the car on, leave theair on for the kids, and go
return the shopping cart. Well,in Los Angeles, in one particular parking

(14:37):
lot, that's at least a twelveminute walk, you could go to jail.
Wait, where is there a twelveminute walk to return your shopping cart.
I've never been to that parking lot. What is that Sofi Stadium?
There are reports from the Bureau ofJustice saying ten percent of crimes occur in
parking lots. If you get toa parking lot, you should look at
the lighting. You should look atsecurity guards. You should look at how

(14:58):
the parkking lot is laid out.If it feels safe. Kind a lot
of a lot of work. Youknow, you go to a parking lot,
you just park in an empty spot. You go to the store.
But man, it's she's got awhole laundry list of things. She looks
at a parking lot. If youget to a parking lot, you should,
and you will one day you will. One day you will get to
one, she said. If youget to one, you know what,

(15:20):
I'd make it a low level goalbecause I got to one over the weekend.
I finally got to one. Ifyou get to one, if you
get to a parking lot, ifyou get there for it, don't expect
it. She say, like ifyou win the lottery, you like.
If you get to a parking lot, you should look at the lighting.
You should look at security guards,you should look at how the parking lot

(15:41):
is laid out, and if youdon't find them, press on. If
it feels safe, go return yourcart. If it doesn't feel safe,
trust your gut, trust your intuition, and keep you and your family safe.
You know what, I could dealwith the judgment of all the people
in the parking lot if I didn'treturn my cart because my daughter was in

(16:03):
the car. What I couldn't livewith is some idiot taking my car or
my daughter. I could not livewith that. I could live with the
other, not the lit the former, not the latter. And so if
if I were her, she's onehundred percent right. If you ever kids,
sorry, the cart's not being takenback to the cart corral, all

(16:26):
right. You got to make sureyour kids are your priority until they get
crime under control in Los Angeles.You got to protect your kids screw the
cart. All right. That featuretitled I'm on Your Side Baby, is
brought to you by Advanced Tair oneDay Treatment, Life changing Results. Make

(16:47):
your appointment today advance Tair dot com. You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on
demand from KFI AM six forty.That's a good promo that we just ran.
That's new, right? Does thatnew? That promo that we just
ran? I think it is.I hadn't heard it before. Yeah,

(17:07):
I haven't heard it either. Prettycool? Is it new? Robin?
Just what happened? I said?Do you like Snickers? Yeah? Yeah,
pretty cool? Huh good candy bar? Huh Yeah. She's got the
nickname Swifty in here. Is thatyour nickname here? Swifty me? No?

(17:27):
No, somebody else? All right? Back to the program. Here
the program, we covered Trader Joe's. There's eight new Trader Joe's opening up
Rubios, Red Hot Grill or WesternGrill whatever they call it nowadays, closing
a lot, Coastal Grill, CoastalGrill. And and then we have that

(17:51):
sharket attack. We sort of coveredit with Alex Stone or Alex Stone,
and then we had a storyline weekwe covered and then all of a sudden
it took off and became an internationalstory. It was the guy who was
driving around on a suspended license,and he was talking to the judge about

(18:11):
reinstating his license as he was drivingon a suspended license, and the judge
got pissed and said, you bettershow up here before six, but we're
going to put a bench board outon you and you won't be able to
bail out on it. Well,there's now more to that story. He
got his license back. Yeah,there was some kind of clerical error that

(18:32):
had bomb that had been made acouple of years ago. There's a new
twist of the story. We've beentelling you about that viral video of a
man in Michigan driving during a zoomcourt hearing over his suspended license. Turns
out a judge had ordered the suspensionon Corey Harris's license belifted two years ago.
All right, two years ago.This guy should have been driving around,
but according to the Michigan Secretary ofState's office, the County Court in

(18:53):
Saginaw never sent the clearance the paperworkwould have reinstated his license following the payment
of a few Harris is now inthe process of sorting through this clerical error
guy gets his license back. Goodfor him. Great follow up to that
story, I can drive around again. The big story over the weekend was

(19:14):
new president of Mexico is a woman. They've never had a woman president.
I'm my USh, We've had likefour or five women presidents. So they're
finally catching up to America where youhave a woman running the joint and she's
Jewish. Mazzel Tov right with this, with this lady celebrations in the street

(19:37):
of Mexico City overnight to usher inpresident E Legg Claudia Schambaum on Sunday,
Thousands line up in the sweltering heat, some even camping out overnight to vote
for the sixty one year old formerclimate scientist. But well, Shambaum brings
a new face to the presidency.She's sixty one, She's much younger than
that to vote for the sixty oneyear old former climate scientist. A former

(20:00):
climate scientist, what is she now? A climate denier? I don't know,
former climate scientist. But while Shambaumbrings a new face to the presidency,
will it be a new era forMexico. The president elect campaigned on
social welfare policies that boosted, broughtsupport for her predecessor and political mentor,

(20:21):
current President Andresmonuel Lopez Rador. Butone of the biggest issues remains security and
violence. Mexico has in one hundredand fifty percent of tacking violence with thirty
seven candidates assassinated during the election cycle. The murders linked to cartels. Why
with thirty seven candidates assassinated during theelection cycle? Why with thirty seven candidates

(20:47):
assassinated during the election cycle? Thirtyseven candidates assassinated during the election cycle seems
high. I don't know, callme a country bumpkin from the valley flats.
That seems like a big number.If we had one in this country,
it would be wall to wall newsthirty seven in just this one election

(21:11):
cycle, thirty seven assassinations the peoplerunning for office. With thirty seven candidates
assassinated during the election cycle, themurders linked to cartels to control much of
the drug trading. The US man, you really can't master around these cartels
in Mexico. They really mean businessand they've been given all that, given

(21:33):
that vibe to people for a longtime, where you know, you f
with the cartels in Mexico. Theyoften just wipe you out for the first
time. It kind of like makessense for criminal organizations to try to control
local governance. They are targeting mayors, right, and mayors are on charge
of local police. And while immigrationremains a lightning run in American politics,

(21:56):
it's a topic most Mexican candidates avoiding. When push comes to shove, it
is the US position policy that Mexicowill have to adapt to rather than Mexico
having its own migration policy, andas one of the US most crucial economic
partners, leaders in Washington will bewatching closely to see which direction Mexico takes
under its new leadership, particularly interms of Mexican stability and Mexican reliability for

(22:22):
the US. All right, Iguess a lot of people had gone down
to the Mexican consulate last night tovote in downtown Los Angeles, and there
are thousands and thousands of people waitingfor you know, nine, ten eleven
hours to vote, and then theyran out of ballots, they ran out
of you know, computer space whatever. And in America, if you're waiting
in line, as long as you'rein line, you can vote, and

(22:45):
they'll stay open late to accommodate everybody. But in Mexico they got a hard
cutoff hour. They cut it offat I don't know, five point thirty
six o'clock, whatever it is,and then you're done. You're done.
You don't get to vote. Soa lot of people were pissed a lot
of people. But a brand newpresident in Mexico a woman, and she

(23:06):
happens to be Jewish as well,two things that we've never had in this
country. We're at a Jewish president. I don't think we have. I
don't think we've had a woman.I know we haven't. So Mexico is
head of America when it comes toelecting presidents Jewish and a female ding dog
with them. I think that's whatthey're calling it, Mexico the ding dog
a president. You're listening to TimConway Junior on Demyl from KFI AM six

(23:33):
forty ten to six. Every Monday, we do a segment that we've been
doing it for five or six yearscalled Wow, that guy was lucky.
And now we've got a brand newpiece of audio for the segment called Wow
that guy was lucky. Let's layit on you see if you think the
same. A necklace being credited fornot only saving a man's neck, but
his life. Police in Commerce City, Colorado, just north of Denver,

(23:56):
say, this necklace stopped a bulletfrom pierson the man's neck. Hear that
the necklace stop the bullet from killingthis guy, stop the bullet from piercing
the man's neck. The shooting happenedduring an argument with another man. Miraculously,
the almost half inch wide metal chainstop the bullet, the victims suffering
only a minor puncture wound. Isn'tthat crazy guy gets shot in the necklace

(24:21):
and the necklace saves the man's life. That is unusual, fairly unusual,
fairly unusual. All right. That'sour segment called Uh, Wow, that
guy was lucky? I think it'swe named it. Who is it?
Brought to you by? Oh,brought you by Advanced Air dot Com.
Advanced Air dot Com. And thissegment's called wow is that guy lucky?

(24:45):
One day treatment, Life changing results. Make your appointment today Advance Air dot
Com. There's a meth lab.So if you're in the math, maybe
you're not hooked. Maybe you justenjoy it, or maybe you're hooked.
I don't know, but it mightbe more expensive now because a lot of
it has been taken off the streettwo hundred and thirty pounds of meth amphetamine.

(25:07):
A cleaning crew makes a wild discoveryin Alhambra. Oh I wouldn't celebrate
if I was the cleaning crew,because a lot of these guys get pissed
when you take two hundred and thirtypounds of their mass. They found two
hundred and thirty five pounds of mess. Oh no, But what do you
do as a cleaning crew. Doyou report it and then you know,

(25:29):
take your chances with the cartel orwith the drug dealers, or do you
leave it alone and mind your business? I don't know. Inside an Airbnb
rental home officer say, surveillance videoshows the suspects using a U haul to
transport the drugs. So wild policewere at the home. God, they're
transporting they have so much drugs.They have so much. The volume is
so heavy that they had to renta U haul a U haul to get

(25:52):
the two hundred and thirty pounds ofmath and distribute it. So wild.
Police were at the home investigating theU Hauk actually went back to the house
but saw police cars and then quicklymade a U turn. But the suspects
they were eventually caught. Police saytwo people were arrested and booked into jail.
Oh man, what bad luck.These guys have horrible, horrible luck.

(26:15):
They have the math methn fetamine.They had two h and thirty pounds.
It was in a hotel room.Everything was working, and then the
housekeeper drops a dime on him.The cops show up. Then they show
up to collect their methn fetamine,and they see the cops. They do
a U turn in the U hauland they get caught. It reminds me
of a guy when whenever the presidentor vice president is in town, they

(26:38):
put up a thirty mile no flyzone. They do not fly zone around
lost wherever the president is. Itextends out thirty miles. So it happened,
I don't know ten years ago wherethe president was in town and some
guy who was flying from think Tijuanaor San Diego up to Santa Barbara flew

(27:03):
through that do not fly zone andquickly he was escorted out of that zone
by f sixteens and they made himland and when he landed, he had
two hundred pounds of marijuana in hisplane. And back then that was a
big deal. Now it's a slapon the wrist. But he almost made

(27:26):
it if he had just listened tothe radio and was told not to fly
in that zone. If he wasjust on top of it and just listening,
he would have made it. Buthe got caught, and these guys
got caught in a similar fashion.Two hundred and thirty pounds of meth amphetamine.
That's a lot. That is awhole lot, all right. Lego

(27:49):
burglary. Several southern California Lego shopshave been burglarized, and I understand this.
Have you ever been in a storeand looked at Lego, It's always
like three hundred dollars for these plasticpieces that make up a dinosaur or a
race car. They're really really expensive. Armed with a trash bag and headlamp,

(28:11):
the thief smashes into bricks and minifigsand whittier. He hits the register,
first, sees no cash, thengoes straight for the miniature. Lego
figures the same scene, same store, different city, here in Ontario,
only this time armed with an accomplice. The crooks make off with thousands of

(28:32):
dollars worth of merchandise. I absolutelythink he knows what he's looking for.
I think he knows that he canprobably sell these online. Yep, legs,
legos go for a lot of money. They don't take up a lot
of space because he's just going afterthe minifigures, which are the little guys.
He scouts out the stores the nightbefore and knows exactly where to break

(28:53):
in, knows exactly where to goto. He goes to the same sections
every time in all of our stores. Okay, well, what they're saying
about this guy, they're complimenting himthat he's doing his research the night before.
He's taking a mental photo of theplace. He knows when to get
in, when to get out,and what to take. This guy is
doing his homework. He's stealing,but he's also not an idiot. He's

(29:17):
doing the proper homework you need todo before you steal crap. The guys
that get caught are the guys thatjust go in there high and steal crap
and leave. But the guy thatdoes the reconnaissance, he makes notes,
he has a buddy that helps helpshim out. He knows when to get
in, when to get out,what to take. That guy did his
homework. Katherine Lushner opened the businesswith her husband about a year and a

(29:38):
half ago, because are all independentlyowned by different families, and then you
have somebody that comes in and theyjust they don't care that you are not
only trying to run your own business, but you're trying to raise a family.
Yeah, no, they don't care. The guys stealing that they that
caring left the port years ago.They don't care at all. They just

(30:00):
want to make money and they wantto make money quickly without working. That's
what they are, you know,That's who they are in life. And
the kicker, she believes it's thesame person. And at least five break
ins in so Cool in the lasteight weeks. These franchise owners feared they'll
be next. You know. I'mstill surprised that he didn't come inside because

(30:22):
he's done it to the other stores, and he's in and out in such
a short amount of time. AtNancy Randall's store in Anaheim, the thief
broke in, but for whatever reasontook off and hit another store in Coast
to Mesa. It's really surprising becausehis car is on every surveillance camera that
we have. He wears pretty muchthe same thing in a lot of videos.
I can't believe he hasn't raincot yet. Catherine says, while they took

(30:44):
a ten thousand dollars hit, otherstores were way worse off. Wow,
ten thousand dollars worth of lego,that's unreal. In their case, the
thief got spooked by noise and thenwas confronted by a frightening shadow cast by
his headlamp, and it's scared himand he ran out of the store.
So thankfully he was only here forabout a minute, in fifteen seconds,
and we think Batman saved the day. Oh oh, I see okay,

(31:07):
So he saw a shadow, hethought it was somebody else, it was
his own shadow. The guy's literallyafraid of his own shadow in this case.
I don't think we've ever seen thatbefore, the guy who's literally afraid
of his own shadow. All right, you got to be careful out there
if you own a store. Iknow it's nerve racking. Every time you
go home, you think you're gonnaget robbed. Every single night you leave

(31:30):
your store, you think someone's goingto come in and wipe you out,
And you're not wrong. It happensa lot. It happens a lot more
now than it used to a lot. And if you want to hear a
pretty good segment. John Colebelt hadthe chief of police on from LAPD and
talk about crime. It was apretty good segment. I think it was
