(00:00):
It's k IF. I am sixforty and you're listening to The Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.It is the Conway Show. All right,
it's Friday, everybody. The Olympicshave started. That's a cool deal.
But we've got local news here todrag us down. And Alex Stone

(00:20):
is with us from ABC News.You're gonna just kill you, so sad,
But what's going on? What's thelocal news? Well, I think
we got a lot of local newshere, but I'm talking about the Olympics,
you know, and we should beall hyper. We get the very
next Olympics to summer. You imaginewhat today is going to be like in
four years. Oh my god,in La I know, and you know
what, a lot of people arebusting the mayor's chops for going over there.

(00:42):
I think she would have been notdoing your job unless she did go
over there and look around. Yeah, she's got to go see what's going
on. That's right. In fouryears from now, we're gonna be baking
outside. I'm gonna be saying,well, Tim, that was a beautiful
Actually, this time we'll be sayingit's about to begin the the opening ceremony.
Later on tonight. Yes, yes, Are you a big fan of
the Olympics? Yeah, yeah,I've covered five of them and got to

(01:03):
know that. Yeah, this ismy first one of not going to and
in many years, but Vancouver andSouth Korea and Beijing and London and all
those, so yeah, I lovewatching them. And I don't know,
you know a lot of the sports, the rules of them, because you're
so random every four years. Butno, I love it that London Olympics
was very successful. Yeah, thatone was good. Yeah, Beijing was

(01:25):
interesting. Yeah. Back in o. Wait did you go to Sochi?
Did you go to the Winter No? I didn't do Sochi. I forget
who did. Somebody else did iton our staff? But I did Pyongyang?
Or no, Pyongyang? I did. Where where were we Pyeongchang?
Wasn't that the one in Solo?Yeah? That one? Do you do
that one that they had in Greecelike a couple hundred years? Didn't do
that one? Now? All right? So today? Oh you mean the

(01:48):
original one? I thought you've hadthe more recent one that they hosted there.
Yeah. No, I'm not thatold. I'm getting numb there,
but I'm not that old. You'reyounger than I am all right, let's
talk about France's rail network. Thathas got to be thing and really pissed
people off. Yeah, so there'snot a ton of answers of what this
was. If it was a terrorattack, was it a political statement of
some kind, Was it a protest, environmental protest. They don't know.

(02:12):
And now they're bringing in intelligence agenciesthat have been working on the Olympics but
from around the globe trying to figureout is there something bigger here and what
is it. Somebody set fire tothe signal boxes along the high speed rail
lines today and then cut the cablesto control of the high speed rail lines
of all the trains going into toParis for the opening ceremony that there was

(02:34):
a couple hours ago, said thisis being seen at a minimum of an
attempt to destabilize the rail system inEurope and around the games. At a
maximum level, this was a terrorattack that failed, and that they didn't
do anything to these trains. Nobodywas injured, no trains were damaged,
but they don't really know it didwork in destabilizing everything, and that trains

(02:55):
at all the major PAIRA stations weredelayed today. Almost a million people were
in acted in this thing because theirtrain was canceled and they weren't able to
get in. Bruce Carr was amongthem, heading into Paris to go to
the opening ceremony and he was toldno, go, don't go to your
train. So we were sitting athome about an hour ago, just about
to go and get on our tradeand we got an email saying it's all

(03:16):
disrupted. You should postpone your trip, which wasn't a great email to receive.
So they said this was coordinated,it was malicious. Whatever it was,
they clearly they were targeting the highspeed rail system in France. Fires
were set on three of the lines, a fourth one was stopped, but
they don't have anybody arrested. TheIOC president Thomas Bock today said the International

(03:36):
Olympic Committee doesn't worry him. Hefeels like security is tight, the games
are going to be safe. They'reintelligence telling them not a bigger threat.
But he said, oh, Idon't have concern. We have full we
have full confidence in the French authorities. All the measures are being taken,
and they expected him to take allweekend to repair the lines. Eurostar today

(03:57):
telling people postpone your trips. IntoParis. I mean, that'sk of a
thing to say, is the Olympicsare getting going of don't travel into Paris.
They didn't have any problems with theopening ceremony. The only issue they'd
now got the the athletes are therethere, they're in the the Olympic village,
but a lot of the delegations arestill coming in of the VIPs and
the coaches and the support staff,so now they're not able to get in.

(04:19):
This guy's from Team Germany. TheyI'm not sure if they arrive this
evening tomorrow morning. We'll be toughfrom Germany to take a train to be
at nine o'clock at hour match,So maybe they will miss the first match.
Yeah, so get a train andget in by nine am tomorrow morning
for the first match. It's amess, you know. Obviously they don't
want it. But the other thingis if it was a terror attack,

(04:39):
or even if it wasn't, itcreated the fear of a terror attack that
people are now thinking of. Ifyou're getting on a train going two hundred
miles an hour and that somebody's messingwith the tracks up there and setting them
on fire, I mean, that'snot what you want to think about when
you're gonna go that gay right.Well, you know, there's two there's
only two different forms of human beings. There's people that move society forward,

(05:00):
you know, teachers, cooks,journalists, pilots, bus drivers, athletes,
actors, whatever it is you movesociety forward. And then there's people
that take society backwards. Terrorists,mass shooters, rapists, killers, arsonists,
you know that crew, and thatcrew seems to always do more damage
than the people moving society forward.There's a lot of us who do our

(05:21):
job, pay our taxes, tryto help society move forward in a nice
way. And then the easy wayto do it is the society backwards crew
where they do terrorist attacks. AndI think this is a terrorist attack.
I really do. Yeah. Imean it's got the earmarks that it could
be. You're right. I mean, we just want to have a beer
and watch this sporting event and nothave to deal with this. But now

(05:42):
they pop their heads up and whatevertheir message is, and you know,
is this a warning of the nexttwo weeks and then there are going to
be other things they don't think so. US intelligence had warned France that the
rail lines were vulnerable, but aren'tall rail lines vulnerable. How are you
ever going to secure long distance raillines in the US or in France or
China or anywhere that they're always goingto be open to somebody messing with them.

(06:05):
And you know this was an openThis wasn't in the secure zone.
It was in the wide open areawhere the rail lines were right there and
they could do whatever they wanted.I root for the United States in almost
every sport unless they're a huge,huge favorite, like basketball or baseball,
and I rooted, I give up. I root for the underdog. No

(06:26):
Lebron, no Steph Curry. No. I mean, look, those guys
have so much money. If theydon't win, that is a huge failure
that you bring in our NBA teams. Come on, but think about how
you know the national heroes would bedeveloped instantly out of Spain or France or
port France or Portugal, whatever itis, Finland, you know, Australia.

(06:46):
Whoever beats the American team maybe wouldbecome instant national heroes. Yeah,
you beat those guys, and sometimesthe other teams have NBA players as well,
and they will this year too.But but you take all our all
star teams, it still doesn't makesense. So everything's supposed to be amateur
and you bringing our all star teamanything like that. But all right,
buddy, you have a nice weekend, enjoy the family. We'll talk to

(09:39):
so you don't know whether they're goingto be asleep by seven or maybe
not with us suck. But theforty fifth annual mooning of the Amtrak down
there at that bar, I thinkit's called mugs Away. Is not the
name of that bar? Mugs Awayan Orange County? Is that, right?

(10:01):
Angel? Right? Mugs Away?Well Sally Spiro or Spiro, I
don't have a pronunciation on that.Her parents are huge fans of KFI,
and they are. They started Ibelieve mugs Away, and I he said,
my dad told me this is thewoman who and who owns the place.

(10:22):
Now, my dad told me thathe participated in mooning twice. He's
eighty seven and he's out there showinghis eighty seven year old ass to the
Amtrak. How great is that guy? That's awesome? An eighty seven year
old ass is not great on anybody. It's eighty seven years it's gotta look

(10:46):
good. It's gotta be some wearand tear on it. So Sally Spiro
or Spiro, I think it's Spiral, Sbi ro o, Sally Spiro,
dingdong with you, And you've gota great daughter. Runs that muggs away,
muggs away, everybody. All right, we got a lot going on
here, a lot happening. Wehave a beach Karen going on. I

(11:07):
always like to make the Karens alittle uncomfortable. And God forbid that you
name your kid Karen anymore. Ithink that name is a rap. I
don't think you can name your daughterKaren anymore, because Karen means a pain
in the ass, a narchy,pain in the ass, busy body in

(11:28):
your business type of person, andthat's not what people like in life.
But we've got a beach Karen.What's going on with her? Wars?
A woman screams and swears as shedemands beach goers get off what she says
is her property. The little boyis stunted. People on social media are

(11:50):
calling her beach Karen. She canbe seen roping off the beach in front
of her multi million dollar home.Okay, what she doesn't know, she
should. But what she doesn't knowand she will, is that there are
no private beaches in California, theentire coast from South San Diego, North
Tijuana, all the way up toI don't know why Rica. Whatever's up

(12:13):
in northern California north of Sonoma County. I don't know what they call that
area, never been there. Butall the beach access is all hours.
It's public, all of it,whether it's Malibu, Santa Monica, Hermosa
Beach, Manhattan Beach, Seal Beach, Huntington Beach, Newport, Dana Point,

(12:37):
Mission Beach, Ocean Side, NorthernCalifornia, San Francisco, Carmel,
all of it. It's all publicbeach. Thank god. So we have
the right to go on any beachin California and you can't rope it off,
and you can't kick us off.He continues her tirade. Now,

(13:01):
Okay, this drives me crazy.She lives in a multi million dollar home
on the beach and she's still angry. I understand, I understand a family
of four that lives in a onebedroom apartment on Sherman Way in Winnetka.

(13:24):
I understand that kind of hostility comingfrom the mom, the young lady,
the we the missus. I don'tget it from somebody who lives in a
multimillion dollar house on the beach.How do you have that level of anger?
You made it. You made it. You wake up looking at the
beach every day. Okay, coupleof kids once in a while trot through

(13:48):
your beach. It's not yours.I know you think it is. It's
not. But where is Where doesthat kind of anger come from knowing that
she's being videotaped or videoed. Thisis no tape anymore. She's being videoed
and it's going to be for theworld to see. The moms and kids
were visiting Laguna Beach's famed coastline alonga stretch that's popular with tourists. They

(14:09):
had to walk down the public stepsto get to the beach. You're in
my property. Get moving now.Now you're in my property line, move
it well, we're walking pretty slow. One of the property owners typically have
the exclusive right to the sand directlyin front of their home up to where
the high tide rolls in. Inthe video, you can see there is

(14:31):
a rope already blocking off beach accessin front of some of the homes.
It appears the furious property owner isthrowing her rope way past that area.
Yeah you can't, you only had. You can't where that tide comes in.
You have up to high tide,and then you have for a high
tide to your home. I thinkis yours that sand but not the ocean,

(14:52):
not the beach, not where thatwater is. Yeah, I heard
one rule, and I don't knowif this is correct. Oh what's the
rule? Well, where the wateris, the sand is wet or damp,
is where the high tide mean wouldbe. Okay, So does the
owner have is she somewhat right?No, she's not. No, that
that beach is public, So she'swrong. And your rule of thumb is

(15:13):
uh stinks? I guess well yeahdoes hey? Okay, here we go?
No, not here we go?Here we go. Let me ask
you something, Angel. You're morefamiliar with the Laguna than I. You
know, I misrule of thumb.But is this a typical person who lives

(15:35):
in Laguna? Is this their attitude? No, it's not okay, it's
not okay, especially if you're sayingthat she has extended that rope like way
beyond the as far as the hightide comes in. Yes, so she's
nuts. Yeah, she's nuts.I spoke to Rosie Garcia, who recorded
the footage. As we're continuing togather at teens, she starts yelling and

(15:58):
yelling and that we better not leave, not one piece of trash. And
you know me and my family wereHispanic. Do you think there were racial
overtones going on? Absolutely, asshe threw the rope into our direction and
saying that she's going to build awall around us. Care Karen of the
Week? Yeah, all right,well there it is Karen of the Week

(16:18):
in the in the beach community,and Lagune is filled with really cool people.
She is an outlier, trust me. All Right, we're live on
KFI, a lot of hosts,a lot of guests. I should say
today it's gonna be a huge show. We might need a half hour of
MOS program tonight. We got alot going on. You're listening to Tim
Conway Junior on demand from KFI AMsix forty. Alex Michael said, is

(16:45):
with us some Fox eleven News ktTV Channel eleven. Hi you Bob sing
Jong with you? How are youbeing and dog with you? Hey?
I know a couple of weeks agoyou went to the Bill Marshall. Were
you a guest on the show?No, I was just in the audience.
Oh buddy, you should have youon as a guest. I know,

(17:06):
Well, I don't know. Imean that would be great, but
it was fun to be there inthe audience. Yeah. Yeah. Has
his audience changed, like he's changedover the last couple of months or so.
You know. What I found outis that his audience is like mostly
the same people every week, Likethere's people that go there every week like
this is their thing. Really,is that right? It's like yeah,

(17:26):
yeah, because I would you wouldthink it'd be like, you know,
a new person from like Iowa orevery week or whatever. But it seems
like there's like a kind of aloyal group of people that are there.
That must be a tough ticket toget. Yeah, no, it was.
I mean, the guy that's incharge of the audience is that it
watches the issue is that every weekand reached out to me and I was

(17:48):
I was honored to be able togo with the guy that warms the audience
up that like figure out who's inthe audience and coordinates all that kind of
stuff. Yeah, wow, whata connection you got to Hollywood. Huh,
it was fun. It was verynice about the low end connections in
your life. I put people inseats at the Bill Marshall and you're like,

(18:11):
yeah, I made it. Itwas very nice and I'll take it.
Okay, that's classic, Buddy.Lots going on politically. How do
you keep up with it? Howdo you do it? I mean,
what a week? Right, orwhat a month? Yes, this is
this is one of those weeks thatis going to be written about in history

(18:34):
books for years and years to cometo sort of figure out what was really
going on behind the scenes in theDemocratic Party, What really led to Joe
Biden getting out, What kind ofpressure was actually happening. How did Kamala
Harris get the go from the conversationof let's have an open convention. We
don't know if Kamala Harris can win. You know, there's all these other

(18:55):
people floating their names. In amatter of like two or three hours,
she's clear to the entire field.Every single one of her rivals have endorsed
her. And she's the presumptive Democraticnominee. Oh and by the way,
she raised two hundred and fifty milliondollars. Wow. I mean, the
amount of speed in which she didthis is remarkable and as kind of a

(19:18):
reminder of the power of having somebodyfrankly a bit younger to do this stuff.
There was an amazing New York Timesstory this week that said, Joe
Biden, during this period where thereare all this doubts about him, made
ten calls to like, over thisperiod of two weeks to different congressional members.

(19:38):
Kamala Harris made one hundred calls inten hours. Wow. Work in
that phone. No, this ideathat could really work it. I got
something for you here that you know. Feel free to use this on your
program. But ninety three percent ofDonald Trump, the people work for Donald
Trump and hid in his administration,are not going to endor him. Okay,

(20:00):
that's a true number. Yes,ninety two just one percent low lower.
Ninety two percent of the people thatwork for Kamala Harris have quit.
So whoever gets in is going tobe very difficult to work with and pretty
entertaining for four years. I wouldsay, for Harris's sake, I think

(20:22):
most of those people, even thoughthey may have quit, are probably still
going to vote for her. Butthat may not be the case for Trump.
But I don't know who knows that. Yeah, I mean, neither
one of them are known as theeasiest people to work for, clearly,
And that says it a lot,because you know, when you look at
like the Conway staff, I mean, everybody remains in your vo yes forever,
right. I mean, once you'rea Conway person, you're Conway for

(20:45):
life. Buddy, I don't knowwhat your position is, and you're an
honest guy. I don't lump youin with other media idiots. But a
lot of people, a lot ofpeople are saying that Kamala Harris was never
the borders are or in charge tothe border, and then they keep replaying
MSNBC, CNN, LA Times,New York Times all saying that she was.

(21:07):
Well, I think that the honestanswer on that is they never used
the phrase borders are. I mean, there was never a press conference where
Joe Biden says, you're the bordersare. That's right, but you know
that's not the point of the argument. She was assigned to investigate the root
causes of immigration problems, and I'mstill waiting for the report what the root,

(21:33):
what the root causes are, ButI mean it was it was a
very very unfortunate political assignment. Ifyou were trying to lift up the vice
president as a potential successor, throwthat her way was not great. And
obviously the immigration is probably the administration'sbiggest political liability. It's one of the
issues that people care about the most. It's something she's going to have to

(21:55):
answer. On the other hand,she's been the point person on the action
to the abortion rights issue, whichhas been the administration's biggest political strength.
So she's got both the biggest strengthand the biggest weakness that she's you know,
front and center on for the Democraticticket. Right. And I also
I would if I were her campaignmanager, I would go online and try

(22:18):
to scrub all the videos where she'ssaying to defund the cops. Yeah,
that's not a great position. I'vetry to get that audio off the internet
pretty quick. Bunnie, I reallyappreciate you coming on What's on that big
show tonight, bub We're analyzing allthis because it's such a big week.
So we've got Lynn Vaverrick and MelanieMason Lynnvaverick from UCLA, Melanie Mason from

(22:40):
Politico, sort of breaking down whathappened, why it happened. Who are
the swing voters going forward are?Pala Riva Martin, who has been friends
with Kamala Harrison's college, one ofher best friends for thirty years, talking
about who she is beyond just thepublic stuff that we see what this means
for her, getting some insight onthat, but really a remarkable moment for
californi Orna and for the country inthe span of a week, to think

(23:03):
about how much the entire world completelycompletely changed. Yeah, it is amazing.
How I mean, you know what'sreally which is I know you're friends
with John Colebelt, but John Colevelthas never taken more than one week off
in his thirty five years. Thefirst day he took off president ex President

(23:23):
Trump form and President Trump gets shot, and then you have the whole thing
with Biden quitting, and then yougot the Kamala Harris. I mean,
he has not been on the airsince Trump was shot. And he comes
back next week loaded for bear andhe didn't come in, he didn't call
in, he just he just stayedon them. I mean, that is
a commitment to a vacation. Well, he was overseas on a cruise.

(23:44):
I didn't think it would it waspossible. Also, I don't like this,
and I know you don't like iteither. And I don't know where
it stops. But I heard somepeople saying, and I have a lot
of friends who are Jewish. Igrew up in Andsino, that it's going
to be tough to take Josh Shapiroas the Democratic vice president because he's Jewish.
I've heard that term. Yeah,and what does that say about the

(24:10):
Democratic base? What is that goingto stop? Honestly, that that that
that, you know, this feelingsabout Gaza and that now we're blaming the
Jew and we can't have a Jewon the ticket. I mean, that's
that. First off, that's absurd. The other thing that's absurd is this
feeling that Kamala Harris is not proJewish when she's married to a Jew.
That's right, It's like, that'salso crazy, it's outrageous. Happened to

(24:34):
our I don't know, I don'tknow. I really do appreciate coming on.
We'll talk. We'll talk to younext week and and I'll be very
proud next season. If you're aguest on that Bill mahershow. You know
what, I'm a guest on yourshow, and that's all that really matters.
That's right, that's the answer Iwas looking for. But I'm happy.
I'm happy with that, all right. But I appreciate you coming on,

(24:55):
man, have a nice weekend.Ding dong with you. Thanks,
Buddy, dig dog with them there, he goes Alex Michaelson. That guy's
awesome. You're listening to Tim ConwayJunior on demand from KFI AM six forty.
We continue here. We got abig show coming up and we we've
just had something added to it here. First of all, we got Michelle

(25:15):
Richards over the Orange County Fair She'sat five thirty five, so about a
half hour, half forty minutes fromnow. And then Mark Ronner, who
is going to talk about Comic Con. He's also he went to see Deadpool
today. Is that Deadpool number two? Step fush? Are you following the
Pool? That's that's the third onethird one? Yeah, all right,
and it's supposed to be the biggestone of maul. Yeah. So I'm

(25:37):
gonna have to like step out ofthe studio because I don't want to hear
any spoilers. Oh that's right.Oh, we won't spoil it, Okay,
we promise. Man, how pissedoff would people be if I gave
the ending to that out? Ohmy, I would be pissed. And
I don't even know what that movieis. Yeah, no, people don't
like that crazy. I would betoo. I'm very excited about Deadpool and
all and all things Comic Con.Are you gonna see it this weekend?

(25:57):
Oh? Yeah, are you goingto Comic No? I covered it for
nine years for NBC, so I'ma big comic Con fan and this is
probably the first year in a whilethat I haven't been. Do you dress
up? Not the whole time,but I like to wear like fun T
shirts and you know, I don'tgo full cosplay though, don't no,
no, no, it's too hot. Okay, and forgive me, cause

(26:18):
is short for costume costume? Yeahokay. Yeah. And a lot of
people do that. A lot ofpeople do that. Yeah. They have
competitions, they have fashion shows,they have all of that. I see.
Yeah, it's a lot of fun. You gotta let your nerd flag
fly out there, I guess.So the one hundred and thirty five thousand
people are going. Yeah, that'ssensational. Yeah, and the ticket.
Honestly, part of the reason whyyou didn't go this year too is because

(26:40):
the hotel prices are just absolutely insane. Yeah, you know at places like
that, I look around and I'mlike, when are the next guy's gonna
wipe everybody on? Wonder he's here, valid, valid, Okay, I
don't know. Maybe I'm on themoon, possibly, who knows. All

(27:02):
right, let's talk about the shinglesshot. Everyone's always trying to get me
to take the shingles shot, andI've been putting it off. I don't
know why, but you know,as you get the move on in age,
shingles can wipe you out. It'snot good and you study out it
says that the latest shingles vaccination mayalso delay the illness of dementia. Researchers
found that people who got that vaccinelived on average one hundred and sixty four

(27:26):
additional days without a dementia diagnosis.Maybe I'll get it then, what the
hell you gotta put off dementia pairedto those who got the previous shingles vaccine,
so very similar population. That's accordingto a study published in the journal
Nature Medicine, peer reviewed top shelfstuff. We're joined now by doctor Slein
Gownder, the CBS News medical contributorand editor at large for Public Health at
KFF tyser Gadder. Good morning.It's always weird to me to use my

(27:49):
brain to have a conversation about protectingmy brain and the health of the brain,
because I don't like thinking about thebody. And yeah, because you
know what, nobody. You know, there's been a lot of people listening
right now who are in their thirties, four these fifties. Eventually you might
get dementia. You just don't believeyou ever will. Nobody who has dementia
or suffered through it ever thought thatthey would get it. Nobody, And

(28:10):
yet it attacks a lot of people, particularly I do everything you can to
try to delay that. Thank youabout dementia. So I'm excited by these
results. It sounds like you aretoo. I am. The fact that
we have a vaccine that's already approved, super easy to get. The fact
that that is showing this kind oflevel of protection is really promising for a
lot of folks. What's the theoryfor why it might have provided this protection?

(28:32):
Well, I'll tell you what.My theory is that shingles really affects
your nervous system and your brain,and it cripples you for at least two
or three weeks. My wife hadshingles and man was it painful for her
too. Ah. Sorry, Well, the shingles vaccine protects against the reemergence

(28:56):
of the virus that causes chicken pox, A lot of chicken pox as kids.
That was my second guess about itreemerging with the chicken pox virus.
It goes into hibernation basically and thencomes back out as shingles. But what
may be happening in terms of howit causes dementia is during that hibernation period
causing perhaps little levels of damage.Or that's my theory right there, nervous

(29:18):
system that eventually over time causes dementia. So can it prevent demensial delay.
We don't know that it prevents,but the degree to which it's delaying dementia
is on the same order of thesenew very expensive medications for Alzheimer's disease that
you don't give until you start todevelop symptoms. So this is something that
if you can just all together preventand delay any symptoms much more cheaply,

(29:42):
easily. Okay, Okay, Idon't know about the shingles vacs since we've
had the you know, the COVIDvacs, the leary of vacs, not
a VACX denier. I still getthe flu shot, but I'm a little
more leery than i was five yearsago. I think I'm allowed that,

(30:04):
