It's k IF. I am sixtyand you're listening to the Conway Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app. Allright, United Airlines, Sorry, they've
done it again. Plane takes offand a wheel, a tire, I
guess a tire and a wheel falloff the plane again. They can't get
(00:23):
this together. You know, I'vebeen driving since I was sixteen, and
I have never had a car wherethe wheel has fallen off ever. And
if I had, I'd have justpulled over and probably swore a little and
then put another one back on.But nobody was in danger. This is
(00:45):
a flight filled with people, andyet somebody is not making sure that those
tires, those bolts on those tiresare tight. I don't know how else
it falls off. Maybe it wasbroken, maybe it was cut somehow.
I don't know, but man,is that scary, Especially if you're on
the ground. The tire starts comingat you two hundred miles an hour,
(01:07):
you can do a lot of damage. On the heels of a record setting
weekend for air travel. Tonight,the FAA and United Airlines are launching an
investigation after one of its passenger planeslost a tire during takeoff. How about
being the the the flak catcher forUnited Airlines. You know, the FAA
is on the phone again. Ohno, what do we do this time?
Tire fell off? Yeah, flewoff in San Francisco and bounced on
(01:30):
the runway and wiped the wiped acar out. I think off the tire
for they take off. They believeit was the website. Is that the
tower talking bellio, that's the towertalking to the pilot. Yes, wow,

(01:53):
and said you lost a tire ontakeoff. They believe it was the website.

bound Boeing seven fifty seven, packedwith one hundred and eighty one passengers and
crew. What the hell? Howcome they can't get this together? Was
leaving Los Angeles. Video from insidethe cabin showing the harrowing moments the plane
(02:15):
successfully landing hours later. You canhear the crew telling passengers to brace back
in march. Wait, that's howthey do it on a plane. They're
they're chanting like they're to protest,to brace brais brais, brais man.
(02:36):
Oh man, that's odd. That'sa weird way to tell everybody to brace.
I am annoying, Yeah it is. It's weird. I mean I
would think, you know, youcan tell just when I'm told to brace
on an airplane, I just needit once and I'm bracing. I'm totally
bracing, but you need it threetimes. Here. Back in March,
(02:58):
a rear tire of another United flightfalling off moments after takeoffs, literally just

haven't talked about yet is the recordbreaking heat in Death Valley. Death Valley
(08:37):
very warm last couple of days,Kurt setting heat taking over Death Valley this
weekend, and the temperature in thearea reached us sweltering one hundred and twenty
seven degrees faery hy yesterday, anew record for July fifth, and the
temperature expected to continue to climb inthe coming days. Defelly forecasted to hit
one twenty nine tomorrow. You knowwhat's amazing that there are some TV states
(09:00):
that were reporting that the San FernandoValley was supposed to one hundred and eleven
degrees on Saturday, and evidently therewas enough fog and cool air coming off
the ocean that kept Burbank in thevalley mostly in the nineties, never got
to even close to one hundred.I think the high was eighty nine in
Burbank on Saturday, and they saidit was going to be one hundred and
(09:22):
eleven, So they missed that byabout twenty one degrees twenty degrees, and
that was kind of alarming that youmissed a forecast by twenty degrees. Twenty
one degrees seems like a lot.Seems like a lot. Let's continue here,
what's going on? And one thirtyon Monday, Tuesday and wend at

Wednesday. It's getting pretty close tothe highest temperature ever recorded on Earth of
one hundred and thirty four degrees,which was also in Death Valley back in
nineteen thirteen. Yeah, we knowhow it got its name. There's a
poor motorcyclist that was driving through DeathValley and I guess the motorcycle broke down
and he passed away. So ifyou're driving in that kind of heat,
(10:05):

trust my car in that kind ofheat. I would never drive through the
desert with that kind of heat.But you got to be very careful.

Man. We cover a lot,a lot of news, a ton of
news. And the w NBA AllStar Game is coming up. Yeah,
you can go to Phoenix, bequite warm this time of year to see
(14:48):
Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Ohman, it's gonna be quite an event
in a couple of weeks. Ithink a week. I think it's next
weekend the All Star Game. WNBAalso say that Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese
have taken the league by storm.Is not an understatement. They have brought
record crowds and TV audiences to theNBA WNBA, and they continue to prove
(15:13):
the hype is well deserved. Bothof July July twentieth in Phoenix, Arizona.
There's a good idea somebody at theWNBA headquarters has not been worldly and
(15:35):
didn't know that July late July inPhoenix is unbearable. Unbearable people leave Phoenix
so they don't die. Have nowclaimed spots in the record books. Last
night, rees score recording her thirteenthconsecutive double double, a new WNBA record,
(15:58):
besting the mark by all time greatCandace Parker. So what is a
double double, you asked, Isaw a big question mark over your head.
It is. It is when theplayer reaches double jed digits in two
of five categories assists, blocks,points, rebounds, or steals all in
a single game. And restid itwith seventeen points and fourteen rebounds in her
(16:22):
Chicago Skies game against Seattle. Theydid end up losing to the Storm eighty
four to seventy one, but itwas not for lack of trying. Meanwhile,
Caitlyn Clark is also making WNBA history, becoming the first rookie just for
a triple do that means yes,of course it's getting three of those.
Yeah. So the number one draftpair nineteen points, she had thirteen assists,
(16:42):
that she had twelve rebounds, hencethe triple double as are Indiana Fever
beat the New York Liberty eighty threeseventy eight. And what is more impressive
is that Clark achieved this against theleague's top ranked team. That is no
joke. There you go, allright, A lot of remote workers are
faking. This is not a shockthat if you're going to have some of
(17:04):
your employees at home, they're notgoing to behave Are you working from home
right now? You might be streamingUS as you're on your computer. If
you're not on your computer, youmay need to get back to it because
listen to this, first reported byBloomberg News, Wells Fargo says it fired
more than a dozen employees for allegedlyfaking keyboard activity to appear busy with work.
(17:26):
Oh no, oh no, wellthere's no supervisor. You'll screw around
at home, and Wells Fargo they'llfire you. Other bank didn't say if
those employees are remote, just thatquote. It does not tolerate unethical behavior.
Psombie Bangalore joins US. Now,she's an editorial intern with the Wall
Street Journal. Is a cool name. Zombie Bangalore joins US, Zombie Bangalow.
(17:48):
Soombi Bangalore joins us. Wow,what a name. Who's written about
this recently and is experiencing her firstlive news interview. I'm so glad you're
doing that with us, Zombie welcome. What are the these mouse jigg lists?
Because the uninitiated they sound quite fascinating. Yeah, they are kind of
just a weird work hack that alot of remote workers are taking advantage of.
(18:10):
But they're basically just like a smallrotating turntable and you can place your
computer mouse on the table and itkind of just twists and turns in like
sporadic directions to kind of see whatthere's a device that does this? Is
that right? So it makes you, it makes your boss seem like you're
working. It moves your mouse,so they're monitoring your your work online,
(18:33):
so your mouse is constantly moving.That's great. I gotta get one of
these. That's fantastic. You needa man mouth jiggler. But you know
this is so great. How lazypeople are where they create something to make
them even lazier. Yeah, theyare kind of just a weird work hack
that a lot of remote workers aretaking advantage of it. But they're basically
(18:56):
just like a small rotating turntable andyou can place your computer mouse on the
table and it kind of just twistsand turns and like sporadic directions to kind
of simulate a person actually physically usingtheir mouth. And they're usually plugged into
your computer or an outlet. Andyeah, they basically just look like someone's
working. It makes it look asif there's activity. Companies on now though,
(19:18):
tracking productivity in a covert kind ofsurveillance way. Why the jig is
up for you people at home.You gotta work. Yeah, So I
think a lot of companies are kindof waking up to the fact that people
are taking advantage of remote work andthe privacy that people get from working.
Oh, that's wild, that's crazy. All right, We've got the Mall
Mayhem more crazy teens, crazy crazycrazy lighting fireworks off, burning trash cans.
(19:41):
What's going on? What's going on? Mall Mayhem in Carson Ellie County
deputies say about two hundred miners setoff fireworks and lit trash cans. On
fire at the South Bay Pavilion lastnight. The chaos force deputies to detain
more than sixty miners for several hours. Similar large gatherings of teenagers at nearby
(20:03):
malls have prompted mall officials to enforcecurfews for unsupervised miners and beef up security.
Here. Carlos so Settle joins uslive from the mall there in Carson,
where last night's disturbants saw several juvenilesighted and then released. Carlos,
Carlos, what's going on, KoreanGood evening. We've seen an increase in
security to night. Sheriff's deputies havebeen patrolling the area out here in Carson
(20:25):
following yesterday's disturbance involving two hundred teenagers, and as you can imagine, it
was quite the chaotic scene for manyshoppers. Yeah, man, that's wild
out there at Carson Maul fifty TeensGone Wild? That's according to LSD official.

scrambling outside as deputies set up aperimeter. At one point, they're seeing
jumping into bushes to detain the juveniles. My nephew had that detained, and
they had some kids had started afire, put a fire in the trash
(21:32):
cans. Jemi La Buie's sixteen yearold nephew was one of seventy three teens
apprehended Saturday night. Seventy three teensapprehended. Man, oh man, how
many teens are in them all?She says the response by law enforcement was
excessive. I feel like they shouldonly detain the ones that death start the
fire and not all the kids.That's right, I'm with her. It's
only three people. They said theyhave video of death start the fire.
(21:55):
Officers issued citations for fingler to disperseand disturbing the peace. Parents had to
come and pick up their children caughtup in the activity. So I'm saying
their kids were falsely detained. Mmokay, all right, I get that.
Moms. They're always gonna support theirkids. They'll talk about, you
know how they're straight A students.They never do anything like that. He's
eleven years old, exactly, noton no paperwork, never been in trouble,
(22:18):
get straight A's. He's the athletes. No injuries or thefts of retail
shops reported. The mall had toclose early. A day later, things
back to normal with more security onhand. Yeah. Man, it's everywhere.
Everywhere you go. There's just craziness. You know. If you go
to a parade, you get DannyTrejo knocking people out. Then you go
to a mall, they're lighting fireworksand fires and I don't know what's going
(22:42):
on with this world. Not sure. And then we heard over the weekend
the big lots might be going outof business, big lots on the heels
of the ninety nine cents store andsome of those dollar stores. Where's ever
gonna go. There's gonna be nostores left. Everyone's disappear, everyone's bailing
out. Belly, are you abig Big Lots fan. You like Big
(23:03):
Lots, like Big Lots. Yeah, my wife loves Big Lots, loves
it. There's some great, greatgreat deals there. Used to be called
Pick and Saved. Do you rememberPick and Save? Yeah? Big Lots
is great. Not tidy. Ohi'll if you don't mind me observing.
Not a tidy store, and butlots of things to uh to get your
(23:26):
hands on for relatively low prices.Did you say the Big Lots used to
be Pick and Save? Yeah,I didn't know that was the same company.
Yeah, big, big, bigLots. The people that own Big
Lots, they I think they boughtPick and Save and then I changed all
the pick and Save to Big Lots. There's a Pick and Save right where
(23:48):
I used to live as a asa child, on Balboa and Ventura.
There's a Pick and Save there.We always went to. Huge used to
be a thrifty drug store, thenturned into a Pick and sa. Man,
I love that Pick and Safe announceBig Lots. I enjoy the I
enjoy that store. I like that. Oh I got a Big Lots tonight,
What the hell? Go buy somestuff that I don't need. You're
(24:11):
listening to Tim Conway Junior on demandfrom KFI AM six forty Big Lots one
of my favorite stores. I enjoythe Big Lots. I think it used
to be picking say. I'm aboutninety nine percent sure that is true.
And now they're having problems keeping thedoors open at Big Lots. Discount home
(24:33):
goods retailer Big Lots announcing it asplanning to close more stores this year and
maybe forcing permanent closure. Revealing elevatedinflation has put a damper on customers buying
power. This is resulting in biglosses. You know what, I don't
believe this when they all reporters saythis, revealing elevated inflation has put a
damper on customers buying power. Idon't believe that. I went to Marshall's
(24:56):
over the weekend and there were fortypeople in line in front of me.
Forty forty people. Where do theyget the money? Somebody's got money held
Marshall's. Elevated inflation has put adamper on customers buying power. I don't
think that's true. You've got acostco. It's full got to you know,
Target, Walmart lines are ten deep. I don't believe this. This
(25:21):
is resulting in big losses for thecompany and substantial doubt. That's a quote
about its ability to continue operations.Josh, this is a stock that has
been under a lot of pressure.They're closing retail locations, and I was
just looking at the Wi Fi interactive. Here we have a discount retail heat
map. You can't even see biglots. That's how small of a company
has become. I can show youif I sort by equal weight here it
(25:45):
is forty two point eight million.That is, that is a very small
amount. You look at the yeartoday totals here, it's been rough for
a lot of these dollars stores always. That's up thirty percent, but DG
Dollar General down six percent, DollarTree down to two twenty dollar Tree down
twenty five percent. Wow. Yeah, just read through the headline, Jared.
So they have around fourteen hundred storesapparently nationwide still but to your point,
(26:08):
listen, they closed about fifty storesin twenty twenty three, now plan
to close about forty stores this year. Hell, all right, this is
probably not in California. I imagineit's outside the state of California. But
there's a vending machine that sells ammunitiona grocery store in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
(26:29):
Ah, I knew it wasn't inLA. Yeah, LA is it's not
quite the place for vending machines thatsell guns and ammunition. Yet is the
first to remove a kiosk that sellsammunition as the city council consider the vending
machines legality. Calls about ammunition beingsold. Ah, that guy's great calls
(26:53):
about ammunition being sold. Yay,he's got some calls about ammunition being sold.
That's great. Then they're borning.That gets the cause of that ammunition
being raised for it in grocery stores. Machine the vending machines is that?
I mean? I thought it wasa lot. I thought it was a
(27:15):
joke. The vending machine is madeby American Rounds, which says it uses
artificial intelligence and facial recognition technology tomatch buyers of the EMMA with their ID
cards. The company says the novelway of selling ammo for shotguns, pistols,
and rifles will reduce theft and increasesafety, writing on its website,
(27:37):
all transactions complied with federal and localregulations, maintaining the highest standards of responsible
sales. Imagine that you're the vendingmachine you're like, I want that shotgun.
Let's see E six E six.It says six Kiosks have now been
installed in stores in Alabama and Oklahoma, and it plans to expand. I
(28:00):
would have guessed. Who would haveguessed? The two locations yours in Alabama
and Oklahoma? Alabama and Oklahoma whereyou can buy your AMMO right next to
your stickers. Alabama and Oklahoma.And it plans to expand throughout the South.
We're really excited about where we're going. We are sure to continue to
expand here in Alabama. We havea machine slated to go into Oklahoma,
(28:22):
Louisiana. Tatoos, a manager atthe Tuscaloosa store that removed the machine,
says it was not because of thecity council meeting, but because of a
lack of sales. The city hassince verified that the vending machines are legal,
and while many are enthusiastic about theKiosks, critics are taking aim online,
one writing deeply dystopian, another quippingwhat could go wrong? That's what
(28:48):
could go wrong? What could Usersof the vending machine must be over twenty
one, Yeah, all right,that's wild vending machine that sells ammunition.
Oh boy, Lax Right near laxthere was a boat that got stuck.
You know that long ass tunnel that'son Sa Pulvita, and it goes from
the one oh five right into laxWell, it says at the beginning of
(29:11):
it fifteen feet clearance. Fifteen footclearance in that tunnel, it says,
actually it says fifteen feet one inch, and then as you get into the
tunnel, the one inch disappears andit becomes just fifteen feet. And a
boat, being a very large luxuryboat was being hauled through that tunnel and
(29:33):
then hit the roof. Well,it's not unusual for roads to be jammed
around lax here, but not bythe way, why is that guy taking
that boat through a very congested tunnelto begin with? Isn't that there were
so many things that could go wrongif you have that kind of boat,
that big, don't you go aroundthe tunnel. There's pch there's the one
(29:57):
oh five four, there's Rosecrans,Imperial Highway, there's a million ways around
instead of going in through that tunnelwith its huge ass boat. Tierra,
but not normally buy a boat thenorthbounds of Provita Boulevard tunnel near lax was
blocked by a semi truck towing ayacht there or the oversized loads was wedged
(30:22):
between the trailer and the roof ourport police eventually cleared the way. Yeah,

done it again. Plane takes offand a wheel, a tire, I
guess a tire and a wheel falloff the plane again. They can't get
(00:23):
this together. You know, I'vebeen driving since I was sixteen, and
I have never had a car wherethe wheel has fallen off ever. And
if I had, I'd have justpulled over and probably swore a little and
then put another one back on.But nobody was in danger. This is
(00:45):
a flight filled with people, andyet somebody is not making sure that those
tires, those bolts on those tiresare tight. I don't know how else
it falls off. Maybe it wasbroken, maybe it was cut somehow.
I don't know, but man,is that scary, Especially if you're on
the ground. The tire starts comingat you two hundred miles an hour,
(01:07):
you can do a lot of damage. On the heels of a record setting
weekend for air travel. Tonight,the FAA and United Airlines are launching an
investigation after one of its passenger planeslost a tire during takeoff. How about
being the the the flak catcher forUnited Airlines. You know, the FAA
is on the phone again. Ohno, what do we do this time?
Tire fell off? Yeah, flewoff in San Francisco and bounced on
(01:30):
the runway and wiped the wiped acar out. I think off the tire
for they take off. They believeit was the website. Is that the
tower talking bellio, that's the towertalking to the pilot. Yes, wow,

leaving Los Angeles. Video from insidethe cabin showing the harrowing moments the plane
(02:15):
successfully landing hours later. You canhear the crew telling passengers to brace back
in march. Wait, that's howthey do it on a plane. They're
they're chanting like they're to protest,to brace brais brais, brais man.
(02:36):
Oh man, that's odd. That'sa weird way to tell everybody to brace.
I am annoying, Yeah it is. It's weird. I mean I
would think, you know, youcan tell just when I'm told to brace
on an airplane, I just needit once and I'm bracing. I'm totally
bracing, but you need it threetimes. Here. Back in March,
(02:58):
a rear tire of another United flightfalling off moments after takeoffs, literally just

a lot today. We had thepickle sandwich. United Airlines lost another tire
flying out of lax that's a bigdeal. Plus we had the shooting in
Valley Village. We talked about thatearlier in the four pm hours, so
if you missed that, you cango download the podcast. But what we
haven't talked about yet is the recordbreaking heat in Death Valley. Death Valley
(08:37):
very warm last couple of days,Kurt setting heat taking over Death Valley this
weekend, and the temperature in thearea reached us sweltering one hundred and twenty
seven degrees faery hy yesterday, anew record for July fifth, and the
temperature expected to continue to climb inthe coming days. Defelly forecasted to hit
one twenty nine tomorrow. You knowwhat's amazing that there are some TV states
(09:00):
that were reporting that the San FernandoValley was supposed to one hundred and eleven
degrees on Saturday, and evidently therewas enough fog and cool air coming off
the ocean that kept Burbank in thevalley mostly in the nineties, never got
to even close to one hundred.I think the high was eighty nine in
Burbank on Saturday, and they saidit was going to be one hundred and
(09:22):
eleven, So they missed that byabout twenty one degrees twenty degrees, and
that was kind of alarming that youmissed a forecast by twenty degrees. Twenty
one degrees seems like a lot.Seems like a lot. Let's continue here,
what's going on? And one thirtyon Monday, Tuesday and wend at
(09:43):
Wednesday. It's getting pretty close tothe highest temperature ever recorded on Earth of
one hundred and thirty four degrees,which was also in Death Valley back in
nineteen thirteen. Yeah, we knowhow it got its name. There's a
poor motorcyclist that was driving through DeathValley and I guess the motorcycle broke down
and he passed away. So ifyou're driving in that kind of heat,
(10:05):
man, you got to go ina car that you trust. I don't
trust my car in that kind ofheat. I would never drive through the
desert with that kind of heat.But you got to be very careful.
Gotta be careful, careful. Dannytrey Ho ny pronounce the last nime tray

You're listening to Tim Conway Junior ondemand from KFI Am six forty.
Man. We cover a lot,a lot of news, a ton of
news. And the w NBA AllStar Game is coming up. Yeah,
you can go to Phoenix, bequite warm this time of year to see
(14:48):
Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. Ohman, it's gonna be quite an event
in a couple of weeks. Ithink a week. I think it's next
weekend the All Star Game. WNBAalso say that Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese
have taken the league by storm.Is not an understatement. They have brought
record crowds and TV audiences to theNBA WNBA, and they continue to prove
(15:13):
the hype is well deserved. Bothof July July twentieth in Phoenix, Arizona.
There's a good idea somebody at theWNBA headquarters has not been worldly and
(15:35):
didn't know that July late July inPhoenix is unbearable. Unbearable people leave Phoenix
so they don't die. Have nowclaimed spots in the record books. Last
night, rees score recording her thirteenthconsecutive double double, a new WNBA record,
(15:58):
besting the mark by all time greatCandace Parker. So what is a
double double, you asked, Isaw a big question mark over your head.
It is. It is when theplayer reaches double jed digits in two
of five categories assists, blocks,points, rebounds, or steals all in
a single game. And restid itwith seventeen points and fourteen rebounds in her
(16:22):
Chicago Skies game against Seattle. Theydid end up losing to the Storm eighty
four to seventy one, but itwas not for lack of trying. Meanwhile,
Caitlyn Clark is also making WNBA history, becoming the first rookie just for
a triple do that means yes,of course it's getting three of those.
Yeah. So the number one draftpair nineteen points, she had thirteen assists,
(16:42):
that she had twelve rebounds, hencethe triple double as are Indiana Fever
beat the New York Liberty eighty threeseventy eight. And what is more impressive
is that Clark achieved this against theleague's top ranked team. That is no
joke. There you go, allright, A lot of remote workers are
faking. This is not a shockthat if you're going to have some of
(17:04):
your employees at home, they're notgoing to behave Are you working from home
right now? You might be streamingUS as you're on your computer. If
you're not on your computer, youmay need to get back to it because
listen to this, first reported byBloomberg News, Wells Fargo says it fired
more than a dozen employees for allegedlyfaking keyboard activity to appear busy with work.
(17:26):
Oh no, oh no, wellthere's no supervisor. You'll screw around
at home, and Wells Fargo they'llfire you. Other bank didn't say if
those employees are remote, just thatquote. It does not tolerate unethical behavior.
Psombie Bangalore joins US. Now,she's an editorial intern with the Wall
Street Journal. Is a cool name. Zombie Bangalore joins US, Zombie Bangalow.
(17:48):
Soombi Bangalore joins us. Wow,what a name. Who's written about
this recently and is experiencing her firstlive news interview. I'm so glad you're
doing that with us, Zombie welcome. What are the these mouse jigg lists?
Because the uninitiated they sound quite fascinating. Yeah, they are kind of
just a weird work hack that alot of remote workers are taking advantage of.
(18:10):
But they're basically just like a smallrotating turntable and you can place your
computer mouse on the table and itkind of just twists and turns in like
sporadic directions to kind of see whatthere's a device that does this? Is
that right? So it makes you, it makes your boss seem like you're
working. It moves your mouse,so they're monitoring your your work online,
(18:33):
so your mouse is constantly moving.That's great. I gotta get one of
these. That's fantastic. You needa man mouth jiggler. But you know
this is so great. How lazypeople are where they create something to make
them even lazier. Yeah, theyare kind of just a weird work hack
that a lot of remote workers aretaking advantage of it. But they're basically
(18:56):
just like a small rotating turntable andyou can place your computer mouse on the
table and it kind of just twistsand turns and like sporadic directions to kind
of simulate a person actually physically usingtheir mouth. And they're usually plugged into
your computer or an outlet. Andyeah, they basically just look like someone's
working. It makes it look asif there's activity. Companies on now though,
(19:18):
tracking productivity in a covert kind ofsurveillance way. Why the jig is
up for you people at home.You gotta work. Yeah, So I
think a lot of companies are kindof waking up to the fact that people
are taking advantage of remote work andthe privacy that people get from working.
Oh, that's wild, that's crazy. All right, We've got the Mall
Mayhem more crazy teens, crazy crazycrazy lighting fireworks off, burning trash cans.
(19:41):
What's going on? What's going on? Mall Mayhem in Carson Ellie County
deputies say about two hundred miners setoff fireworks and lit trash cans. On
fire at the South Bay Pavilion lastnight. The chaos force deputies to detain
more than sixty miners for several hours. Similar large gatherings of teenagers at nearby
(20:03):
malls have prompted mall officials to enforcecurfews for unsupervised miners and beef up security.
Here. Carlos so Settle joins uslive from the mall there in Carson,
where last night's disturbants saw several juvenilesighted and then released. Carlos,
Carlos, what's going on, KoreanGood evening. We've seen an increase in
security to night. Sheriff's deputies havebeen patrolling the area out here in Carson
(20:25):
following yesterday's disturbance involving two hundred teenagers, and as you can imagine, it
was quite the chaotic scene for manyshoppers. Yeah, man, that's wild
out there at Carson Maul fifty TeensGone Wild? That's according to LSD official.

Oh, what's going on with theteens? Many of the teams seem
scrambling outside as deputies set up aperimeter. At one point, they're seeing
jumping into bushes to detain the juveniles. My nephew had that detained, and
they had some kids had started afire, put a fire in the trash
(21:32):
cans. Jemi La Buie's sixteen yearold nephew was one of seventy three teens
apprehended Saturday night. Seventy three teensapprehended. Man, oh man, how
many teens are in them all?She says the response by law enforcement was
excessive. I feel like they shouldonly detain the ones that death start the
fire and not all the kids.That's right, I'm with her. It's
only three people. They said theyhave video of death start the fire.
(21:55):
Officers issued citations for fingler to disperseand disturbing the peace. Parents had to
come and pick up their children caughtup in the activity. So I'm saying
their kids were falsely detained. Mmokay, all right, I get that.
Moms. They're always gonna support theirkids. They'll talk about, you
know how they're straight A students.They never do anything like that. He's
eleven years old, exactly, noton no paperwork, never been in trouble,
(22:18):
get straight A's. He's the athletes. No injuries or thefts of retail
shops reported. The mall had toclose early. A day later, things
back to normal with more security onhand. Yeah. Man, it's everywhere.
Everywhere you go. There's just craziness. You know. If you go
to a parade, you get DannyTrejo knocking people out. Then you go
to a mall, they're lighting fireworksand fires and I don't know what's going
(22:42):
on with this world. Not sure. And then we heard over the weekend
the big lots might be going outof business, big lots on the heels
of the ninety nine cents store andsome of those dollar stores. Where's ever
gonna go. There's gonna be nostores left. Everyone's disappear, everyone's bailing
out. Belly, are you abig Big Lots fan. You like Big
(23:03):
Lots, like Big Lots. Yeah, my wife loves Big Lots, loves
it. There's some great, greatgreat deals there. Used to be called
Pick and Saved. Do you rememberPick and Save? Yeah? Big Lots
is great. Not tidy. Ohi'll if you don't mind me observing.
Not a tidy store, and butlots of things to uh to get your
(23:26):
hands on for relatively low prices.Did you say the Big Lots used to
be Pick and Save? Yeah,I didn't know that was the same company.
Yeah, big, big, bigLots. The people that own Big
Lots, they I think they boughtPick and Save and then I changed all
the pick and Save to Big Lots. There's a Pick and Save right where
(23:48):
I used to live as a asa child, on Balboa and Ventura.
There's a Pick and Save there.We always went to. Huge used to
be a thrifty drug store, thenturned into a Pick and sa. Man,
I love that Pick and Safe announceBig Lots. I enjoy the I
enjoy that store. I like that. Oh I got a Big Lots tonight,
What the hell? Go buy somestuff that I don't need. You're
(24:11):
listening to Tim Conway Junior on demandfrom KFI AM six forty Big Lots one
of my favorite stores. I enjoythe Big Lots. I think it used
to be picking say. I'm aboutninety nine percent sure that is true.
And now they're having problems keeping thedoors open at Big Lots. Discount home
(24:33):
goods retailer Big Lots announcing it asplanning to close more stores this year and
maybe forcing permanent closure. Revealing elevatedinflation has put a damper on customers buying
power. This is resulting in biglosses. You know what, I don't
believe this when they all reporters saythis, revealing elevated inflation has put a
damper on customers buying power. Idon't believe that. I went to Marshall's
(24:56):
over the weekend and there were fortypeople in line in front of me.
Forty forty people. Where do theyget the money? Somebody's got money held
Marshall's. Elevated inflation has put adamper on customers buying power. I don't
think that's true. You've got acostco. It's full got to you know,
Target, Walmart lines are ten deep. I don't believe this. This
(25:21):
is resulting in big losses for thecompany and substantial doubt. That's a quote
about its ability to continue operations.Josh, this is a stock that has
been under a lot of pressure.They're closing retail locations, and I was
just looking at the Wi Fi interactive. Here we have a discount retail heat
map. You can't even see biglots. That's how small of a company
has become. I can show youif I sort by equal weight here it
(25:45):
is forty two point eight million.That is, that is a very small
amount. You look at the yeartoday totals here, it's been rough for
a lot of these dollars stores always. That's up thirty percent, but DG
Dollar General down six percent, DollarTree down to two twenty dollar Tree down
twenty five percent. Wow. Yeah, just read through the headline, Jared.
So they have around fourteen hundred storesapparently nationwide still but to your point,
(26:08):
listen, they closed about fifty storesin twenty twenty three, now plan
to close about forty stores this year. Hell, all right, this is
probably not in California. I imagineit's outside the state of California. But
there's a vending machine that sells ammunitiona grocery store in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.
(26:29):
Ah, I knew it wasn't inLA. Yeah, LA is it's not
quite the place for vending machines thatsell guns and ammunition. Yet is the
first to remove a kiosk that sellsammunition as the city council consider the vending
machines legality. Calls about ammunition beingsold. Ah, that guy's great calls
(26:53):
about ammunition being sold. Yay,he's got some calls about ammunition being sold.
That's great. Then they're borning.That gets the cause of that ammunition
being raised for it in grocery stores. Machine the vending machines is that?
I mean? I thought it wasa lot. I thought it was a
(27:15):
joke. The vending machine is madeby American Rounds, which says it uses
artificial intelligence and facial recognition technology tomatch buyers of the EMMA with their ID
cards. The company says the novelway of selling ammo for shotguns, pistols,
and rifles will reduce theft and increasesafety, writing on its website,
(27:37):
all transactions complied with federal and localregulations, maintaining the highest standards of responsible
sales. Imagine that you're the vendingmachine you're like, I want that shotgun.
Let's see E six E six.It says six Kiosks have now been
installed in stores in Alabama and Oklahoma, and it plans to expand. I
(28:00):
would have guessed. Who would haveguessed? The two locations yours in Alabama
and Oklahoma? Alabama and Oklahoma whereyou can buy your AMMO right next to
your stickers. Alabama and Oklahoma.And it plans to expand throughout the South.
We're really excited about where we're going. We are sure to continue to
expand here in Alabama. We havea machine slated to go into Oklahoma,
(28:22):
Louisiana. Tatoos, a manager atthe Tuscaloosa store that removed the machine,
says it was not because of thecity council meeting, but because of a
lack of sales. The city hassince verified that the vending machines are legal,
and while many are enthusiastic about theKiosks, critics are taking aim online,
one writing deeply dystopian, another quippingwhat could go wrong? That's what
(28:48):
could go wrong? What could Usersof the vending machine must be over twenty
one, Yeah, all right,that's wild vending machine that sells ammunition.
Oh boy, Lax Right near laxthere was a boat that got stuck.
You know that long ass tunnel that'son Sa Pulvita, and it goes from
the one oh five right into laxWell, it says at the beginning of
(29:11):
it fifteen feet clearance. Fifteen footclearance in that tunnel, it says,
actually it says fifteen feet one inch, and then as you get into the
tunnel, the one inch disappears andit becomes just fifteen feet. And a
boat, being a very large luxuryboat was being hauled through that tunnel and
(29:33):
then hit the roof. Well,it's not unusual for roads to be jammed
around lax here, but not bythe way, why is that guy taking
that boat through a very congested tunnelto begin with? Isn't that there were
so many things that could go wrongif you have that kind of boat,
