Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Thompson is
with us. We are almost one hour, about fifty five
minutes away from the big debate ABC News Presidential Debate
simulcast right here on KFI AM six forty at six o'clock.
(00:22):
Moe Kelly's coming in at five point thirty.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
He's rare to go.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I just saw him in the hallways. He's all prepped
to come in.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Now, you're gonna mute his microphone the way the debate
people are gonna mute to when one of the other
people in the room, like you or myself are speaking.
That's a great idea. Yeah, we ought to try to emulate,
you know, the debate rules.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
I wish I had a button where I could just
literally shut them.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Staffos, step O.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Please don't start with me, buddy, don't start with me.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I'm not in the mood.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Oh, we got a lot going on here. Let's finish
up with this story that we had started. Because the
power outages are a big, big deal, especially if you're
in the fire area and you can't get the information
you need. Maybe you don't have you know, a battery
operated radio where you don't have TV and you see
the smoke and you smell the smoke and you know
(01:14):
it's coming towards you and you don't have the power
to run your you know, your information boxes. So let's
find out more about these huge power out Just up
to ten thousand customers in LEDWP out of power.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
It's taking them a little bit longer to get the
power back onto everyone. They're hoping that they will be
able to get power back to everybody today. And then
also the cool down in temperatures, even though it's still
going to be in the nineties, a little bit cooler,
they're hoping we'll be able to help them. But we
talked to some people in Highland Park yesterday who were
having to deal with the lack of power and the
(01:48):
lack of AC in this kind of temperatures. Here's what
one woman told us.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Yeah, just for a few few minutes and then I
went back on.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
But yeah, we did this power. Oh I was like,
oh my god, I'm going to be in the shower
all day trying to It's kind of a cool attitude.
Might just jump in the shower all day, going to
be in the shower all day to keep cool.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
People doing whatever they can to stay cool. Now again,
we were talking about some issues with schools. Yesterday, there
was about a dozen schools in the LAUSD's North region
that actually got out early. They had a minimum day
schedule because they were having issues with some of their
air conditioning units. Some of the portable units were having
to be brought in.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You know what, when I was growing up going to school,
I went through LAUSD, and uh, you know a lot
of the public schools here in Los Angeles up until
recently didn't have air conditioning at all. We didn't have
air condition growing up. I didn't have it in an elementary, junior, high,
or high school. No air conditioning.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Do you think it was cooler than in general, noticeably
cooler when you're a kid.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Mmmm?
Speaker 1 (02:44):
No, I don't think there were. Look, we didn't have
the October surprises that we have now at the San
Anews were like longer stretches of hot Yes, I think
you're onto something, Yes, I think you're onto something.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Portable units we're having to be brought in to try
to keep kids safe coming back here alive. We've reached
out to LAUSD today right now we're not hearing any
reports at any minimum schedules. But again they are also
staffed up. City cruis are staffed up trying to deal
with all of these issues that we have with the heat,
trying to make sure that everybody has.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Okay, speaking of heat, let me lay some numbers on
you here. Okay, coming up twomorrow, in the San Fernando Valley,
the low is sixty, the high is eighty. On Thursday,
the low is fifty nine degrees. The high seventy eight
in the valley, seventy eight is going to be the
(03:34):
high seventy eight, eighty eight, ninety eight, one oh eight,
forty degree difference, almost a forty degree difference. In Burbank
from one Thursday to another. I'm gonna switch from shorts
to sweats. Yes, you gotta put a jacket on the
get a down jacket, bring that the sucker to work.
It's gonna be freezing on Thursday. Hope that passes that.
(03:55):
I'm gonna be freezing.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Power in there.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It's gonna be fifty nine degrees. Mark, that's free such.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah, yeah, I'll give you a hill. You me chilling overnight,
it'll be fifth that's right.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
But now you can open up your house and cool
it down with its fifty nine degrees in the valley.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
And look I'm not lying to you. I'm telling you
it's fifty nine degrees. And how about this on Wednesday
of next week, the highest sixty nine in Burbank and
the low is fifty four.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Wow, so that's really like a fall day.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
That's right. Fifty four degrees next Wednesday is the low.
Sixty nine is the high next Wednesday week from tomorrow?
Fifty four and seven and sixty nine.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Where are you getting all of this information? This is
my question on my cell phone. My god, that's a
magical device.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
It works great power, and that there.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Are places for people to go to stay cool. We'll
continue to monitor the situation throughout the southern California this
morning and let you know if they're on the up dates.
Right now, we're sending it back to you where hopefully
it's going to be cooler today. I mean, we'll just
take ten degrees cooler, right, ladies, Well you know we
thankfully Amberly is saying we're going to see some en
payments later on this week.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
All right, yeah, so bad bad virus. We have the
update at four pm on the on the fires. We
had the update on the bridge fire, the airport fire,
and the line fire. But how is this smoke going
to impact you? Impact your life? We see, we clearly
see it here in Burbank and we're twenty maybe as
(05:21):
the crow flies, I would say, thirty miles from where
the bridge fire is. Krozer, What does what does your drive.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
In every day?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
How many miles? About fifty? About fifty? Okay, abound fifty
miles and so from Claremont to Burbank roughly around forty
miles as the crow flies, and that I can clearly
see from our window that where that fire is forty
miles okay. So the smoke is going to impact a
lot of people here in southern California. How is it
(05:48):
going to impact.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Your long When the air quality is poor due to wildfires,
you will feel symptoms. People who are more at risk,
like young children, the elderly, and those with heart and
lung disease, will feel it first.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
But we all need to know about it.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
So if you feel shortness of breath or running nose
when you're out and about among smoke, you see Davis
Health doctor Nick Kenyon says it's simple.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
You need to avoid it. Okay, that's pretty almost too simple.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I'm not too experiencing that. But I'm listening. I'm hearing
some music. Yes, and is that a symptoms symptom of it?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
I think that's Chris Little's hold music, low grade hold music.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Okay, but you know.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Doctor ray Kuscherry who came on with this almost nightly
during COVID and helped us, you know, talk to us
off the ledge. He said, if your eyes are bothering you,
your lungs are also bothering you. He said, you may
not feel it in your lungs, but if your eyes
are watering and your eyes are bothering you because of
the smoke, your lungs are in PAS.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
That's exact same. That's a great grade.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Is that great to rule a thumb?
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah, yeah it is. He's a pullmonologist and he knows
the lungs well class pollmonologist. Yes.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
He teaches other pulmonologists how to be pulmonologists.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Wowology, that's right.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Nobody wants to be signs now that we're coming out
of the pandemic.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
But unfortunately, when wildfire smoke gets that bad in this area,
we need to avoid it.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
We have to spend more time indoors.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
We have to close the windows.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
What audio? What do the audio? Did was trying? I
was going to count the number of words I actually
understood and it's still a zero.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
What audio did? They say? No, it's too garbled. Let's
use that. You got to go with this guy, God
worldfire smoke gets that.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
We have to spend more times. We have most of
the windows in a conditioning. My God, don't things that
we like to do.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Doctor Kenyon says, since twenty seventeen, these types of I
don't know what he's said.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, there comes a time when you should just quote
doctor Kenyan and not actually use the audio.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
They don't things that we like to do.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Doctor Kenyon says, since twenty seventeen, these types of symptoms
are getting more and more common.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Oh, I see what she's doing. She's translating. She's translating
for the doctor.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Doctor Kenyon says, since twenty seventeen, these types of symptoms
are getting more more common, More and more people are
coming in and complaining about them. So now, he says,
medical professionals, we'll have to study what the long term
effects are. Since we're being exposed summer.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Who is the kid in the background taking piano lessons?
Why does he have to be on during this segment?
What's going on with kid? What's going on?
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Since we're being exposed summer? Poky outside avoid outdoor exercise
on his day inside? And if you can't, can you
wear it?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
In ninety five masks? And can you stop this?
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Thank you?

Speaker 5 (09:20):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Here's here's a shocker for you. Next Wednesday, Thursday, the
low in Big Bear the Big Bear Lake. The low
next Wednesday, thirty nine degrees.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, it's like a fall. Wow, fall might that's.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Going to help with the fire if the fire is
still rolling and it's going to be rolling that week
from today.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Yeah, let's hope that they have a handle on it. Fire.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
So probably a handle on but still this might be
a month of putting out hotspots.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
And so I was listening and watching on KTLA that
vera human is Mark you know who she is?
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Sure, she's to come on with us all the time
at at Kyla Sex she would come in like, you know,
like once a week or so.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Weather person there.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, she's great, And I will tell you, hands down,
bar none, the nicest person I think I've ever met
in my life. Wow, how about that?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Because you've met a lot.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
I've met a ton of people, a ton of people, man,
and she is the most positive outlook. I don't know
if it's real or fake. I don't know whether it's
drug induced or it's totally sober.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
I'm telling you there's nobody more positive than that woman. Wow,
that vera human is unbelievable, always smiling, always laughing, never
complaining about anything.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
That is rare.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
You know.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
The nicest people I met show business, I think maybe
across the board though, was Casey Caseum. Okay, that makes
I found him to that makes sense, enchantingly nice. And
you know what's ironic is the only piece of audio
that everyone when it plays a city yelling at people.
(11:10):
You're right, that really is ironic. Nicest guy arguably in
the world. Right, And all that we know about is
is not on the phone. I want to concerted effort
around here.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I can't come out of these dead dog stories.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Up tempo records. Come on, good golly, miss Molly. We've
talked about it over and over. I want to concerted
effort around here, not to come out of the record
into a.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Dog dying, another dead dog story, and those pictures.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
I was supposed to see last week. That's okay, God,
that's such a great impression, such a terrific guy. And
you're right, that's the piece of tape that lives forever.
Right the one time he blew his stack. Everybody now
owns that all right?
Speaker 1 (12:00):
With the airport fire, where is Steve Gregor is he
on the line fire crows? I think he's on the line.
He's a tribute O Cane or Tribuco Canyon fire. Okay,
he was that he had just called us up.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I don't know if you heard to update the despite
what they said in the press conference of being more
than ten thousand, it's actually more than nineteen thousand acres.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Is that right?
Speaker 6 (12:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Oh my god, man, that thing exploded yesterday afternoon. It
was two hundred and seventy eight acres. That's the first
notification we got out. And right now the airport fire.
What did you say was croz nineteen thousand? Oh my god,
So that that earlier comment of nine thousand, thirty three
(12:37):
acres was way off? Yes, ninety three hundred, yeah, ninety
three hundred. You're right, Yeah, that was an hour ago
or two hours ago.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Yeah, well it was.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
It was accurate up to a point, I guess, but
they doubled it, more than doubled it.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
And it's catching up, but we haven't gotten an update.
I think in the last little bit from where Corbyn
Carson is over there about in Sanbordina Mountains, but it's
catching up to that one because that's a nearly twenty
eight thousand.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yeah, you're right, twenty seven nine to seven four twenty seven,
nine hundred and seventy four acres on that fire, the
Line fire twenty seven thousand, nine to forty seven, the
Airport fire nineteen twenty eight acres, and then the Bridge fire,
the smaller one still four thousand, one hundred and seventy
seven acres burning just north of the two ten Freeway
(13:24):
and north northeast, actually almost due north of Glendora, where
that fire is. And so we've got three major fires
burning and a lot of sleepless nights, a lot of
people up, you know, worried about what's going on with
their loved ones, with their cars, their homes. It's just
a really busy, busy time. But fortunately the all of
(13:48):
southern California is in for a tremendous cool down and
we're going to be seeing temperatures in the high sixties,
low seventies, even as far inland as as Burbank. Let
me check for people out there who live in the
Analope Valley what that looks like over the next couple
of next week or so.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Yeah, that's the thing. Though it's not gonna be for
a few days though, right Tim, that's right. But how
about this.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
You're not gonna believe me, But I'm gonna tell you
something here about the Analope Valley, and that's Lancaster, Palmdale,
the Analope Valley. One on Monday, this next Monday, coming up.
The low of fifty four, the high of sixty nine degrees,
sixty nine degrees. It is currently ninety two. It was
(14:33):
ninety seven was the high in Analope Valley. And we
have a huge, huge listenership out in Palmdale, Lancaster, in
the Annalope Valley. Man, they love KFI out there. I
don't blame them. I don't blame But if you can
hold on till next Monday, you're gonna get a big relief.
It's gonna be a little windy. The low of fifty
four degrees, the high of sixty nine degrees in the
(14:57):
Annalope Valley, sixty nine on Monday. That's out. That's unbelievable. Sure,
I mean it was one hundred and nineteen degrees out there.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Really, seventy nine eighty nine ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Why no, No, it was fifty.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
That's a fifty degree difference. I gotta do that on
my fingers. You know count degrees.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Now you The reason that's funny to me is that
you're like Stephen Hawking, is the truth event. You don't
need to do it on your fingers, but I love
that you do it on your fingers for effect.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
I do have to occasionally throw those pits down to
count this out. All right, we have coming up at
six o'clock. It's gonna be another busy day here on KFI.
Two busy days in a row. Yesterday with all the fires,
today with all the fires, and tonight at six o'clock
we have ABC News Presidential Debate simulcast right here on
KFI AM six forty that starts in one half hour
(15:47):
from now. Mo Kelly joins us next. Mark Thompson stays
with us. We'll do a little bit of the ramp
up of the debate. What you, guys, because you and
Moke Kelly are more into politics than I am. What
you're gonna be looking for, what you're not gonna be
looking for? What you might see, what you might not see,
what might happen It might not happen the whole run
on this debate tonight. Harris and Trump debate tonight is
(16:10):
going to be unbelievable off the charts in the ratings,
especially for people driving around their car. You can't get
home to see you because nobody gets off work at
five o'clock anymore, but you can't listen to it. Right
here on KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Mark Thompson's with us, and Moe Kelly joins, it's nice
to see you, buddy. Good to see you for this
big debate coming up. And if we get any more
information or updates on the big three big fires, we
will certainly have those for you. All Right, this is it,
the big debate. It happens literally in twenty four minutes
from now. Mo Kelly, let's start with you. What do
(16:51):
you expect tonight, Bob Well.
Speaker 7 (16:52):
I expect to fire works as two people, to be serious,
I expect different things from the different candidates.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I think they have different goals they want to achieve.
Speaker 7 (17:02):
I think former President Trump wants to not the vice
president off her game, distract her, have it be about him,
have it be about negative banter back and forth, and
if he's successful, then he would make her look as
if she's not ready for prime time unintended, and make
her seem to any undecided voter that she's not ready
(17:26):
to be president.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
That's his goal, her goal.
Speaker 7 (17:29):
I think she's going to be speaking to the main camera,
looking at America and say, look, I'm not going to
be caught up in that. I am the person who
is best suited for the job. Look at him, you know,
see what, look at his antics and see that I'm
about serious business.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Here's my policy.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Why Mark, why do you think that there was a
big fight about turning the mics on or keeping them
off or what was that all about.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Well, the Trump people wanted to maintain this mute system
that was agreed upon by the Biden camp and the
Trump camp. And it maybe that the Harris people felt
that she could at least opportunistically jump in to kind
of check him on a fact, at least have that
(18:11):
option open. It also might have been a psychological thing,
like to know that she can jump in might have
been something that would throw him off his beam. That said,
I think a little too much is being made of that,
but that would be my suspicion because they gave on
it anyway, So it continues to be a mute a
(18:34):
mike situation. As you know. The one thing I would
say that Trump will do, and he can probably do
it to some success tonight, is to attach Harris to
the border policy and to problems at the border. Now
she can parry back that he chaoed legislation that would
have taken care of that border situation. But I really
(18:56):
feel as though this is based on their attack ads,
which have been I think very effective. The Trump attack
ads on Harris have been really effective. I think that
he's going to make some political hay of that tonight,
and I'd be surprised if he didn't. You know, all
of the the.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Video that is accusing Kamala Harris of flip flopping, it
all comes from one CNN interview in twenty nineteen, all
of it, all of that video when you see, you know,
she's against fracking, she's against you know, she she wants
a strong, you know, not open border, but a little
more relaxed. And then there was a third one there
(19:34):
about the economy. But it all comes back to that
one interview, and if it wasn't for that one interview,
none of that video would exist, or at least they
would have to, you know, certainly look for it.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
I mean, the flip flopping thing I think she will handle,
don't you agree, mo? I mean I think by now
she is loaded with responses on that that. You know, Look,
time has passed. I've considered a number of facts that
really weren't in evidence at the time. Yeah, I've modified
my positions. It would be nice if the former president
were able to do that as well.
Speaker 7 (20:05):
I think to agree, Yes, I would agree, but also
in a more conventional time, it would have been more important.
This is not going to be a policy Leyden discussion tonight.
This is going to be filled with insults and Harry's good. Now,
what is going to be the advantage for former President
Trump is Kamala Harris will have to defend herself as
(20:28):
a candidate and will also have to defend the record
of the Biden administration where she is vice president, didn't
drive the bus, but still was on the bus, and
has to account for the good and the bad of
Biden policy.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
You know, I'm surprised that that you know, her positioning
her position on fracking. You know, I'm not a far
left wing liberal, but I don't even like fracking, and
I think she may have been onto something to say
she was against it. I think most of the people
country against fracking.
Speaker 7 (21:01):
Yes, but I don't think most people in this country
are into nuance and discussing that debate. I don't think
most people know that we're producing more oil energy than
ever before. And if you don't include that into the
discussion about fracking, that you don't have the real context
to properly assess what she meant by that.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Also think that most people in this country don't live
in Pennsylvania, where tracking is actually a big part of
that economy. That's why she flipped, right, But to flip
for one state, well, she needs that state, I mean,
she absolutely needs that state.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
All right, we are going to take a small break.
We'll come back, and then the debate starts. The actual
ABC News presidential debate starts. We're going to simulcast right
here on KIM six forty. It starts at six pm.
And then if we have any more information on these
three fires that are burning. We got the line fire
up in San Bernardino, the airport fire, and Tribuco Canyon
(21:54):
and the surrounding area, and then the Bridge fire just
off the two ten freeway just a little bit northeast
of Claremont. Will have any more updates on acreage and
containment for you right here on KFI AM six forty.
And don't forget major lottery pick tonight. That could be
worth I think eight hundred million dollars. Wow, wouldn't that
(22:16):
be nice to win it? And then if we did,
we would all be on an awesome vacation. We could
rent out an entire cruise ship and just be the
only passengers.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
We were just watching KTLA Mo Kelly's with as Mark
Thompson as well as well, and was watching KTLA and
they said some pretty gruesome footage of two what looks
like very expensive homes in the Airport fire which is
in Orange County, the Tribuco Canyon fire, and man, oh man,
if that's getting into homes, that could be a whole
new ballgame down there. If we have an update, we
(22:56):
will have that for you before six o'clock. From six
o'clock till seven o'clock until seven thirty. I should say
we're doing the ABC News presidential debate simulcast right here
on kf I am six forty. All right, let me
ask Moe Kelly and Mark Thompson. Somebody emailed us here
with the question for the two fellas, if there was
a full primary this year, do you think the nominee
(23:20):
would be Kamala Harris Well Kelly?
Speaker 7 (23:23):
I possibly, not, definitely, but the full primary doesn't really
make any difference. People sometimes forget that the primary is
not required. There are a lot of parties like the
Green Party, Libertarian Party. They go to a hotel, have
an orgy, come out, here's our nominee, Jill Stein. You
know that's a better convention. No, but I'm saying many
(23:46):
times it's just a weekend get together. And we didn't
have full primaries of all fifty states until the nineteen seventies,
so people sometimes forget that they're not necessary.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Mark Thompson tell me something I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I think that is a strong man argument, the idea
somehow that the primary didn't yield this candidate. Somehow she's
weaker because she wasn't tested by the primaries. I mean
she would still have gone into any kind of the
primary as the vice president. She probably would have had
a lot of half from the Democratic Party behind her.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Wrong, Patti Piope. All right, so we're gonna see the
debate starts night at six o'clock. There's some weird rules
about this debate. You can't bring any notes with you.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Yeah, they'll let you bring with you a pad and
writing implement so in other words, they'll be taking notes,
but they're not allowed to bring notes, right.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And there's also I think I read somewhere where both
both podiums have to be the same, you know, like
she can't be on a riser.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Right, That's exactly. And the visual mo I thought was
really really weak when she sat down to an interview
with Walls, and on the CNN interview she looked tiny
because of the camera angle. And I'm not saying that,
you know, I don't know how man people noticed it,
but on the three shot it was really claring.
Speaker 7 (25:01):
Well, this is an interesting point if you're a student
of history, and I know Mark you know this, and
Tim you know this, But the visuals matter. Going back
to Nixon and Kennedy and how Nixon was sweating during
the televised portion debate.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
But if you listen to the debate on the radio,
you thought.
Speaker 7 (25:18):
That Nixon won, but televivision made it look like he
lost because he looked flustered and overheating.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
So the visuals do matter. And the debate is literally in.
You know, it'll start around in ten minutes from now,
and it's just moments away, the presidential debate around fifteen,
around ten minutes or so away. Both candidates have arrived
in Philadelphia. Their campaign surrogates are already on the ground
providing spin already, and the spin room afterwards.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
You saw who's the providing spin, didn't you, Tim, No,
it's among I think Newshom is one person providing spin.
But on the GOP side, RFK Junior is providing. He's
a big trumpet.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Now do you know, did you see there's a fundraiser
going on in California for Donald Trump and they're gonna
raise you know, a couple million dollars or so. And
you know who's the head of the head of that fundraiser.
It's it's Gavin Newsom's wife's family.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I know, that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
They're big Republicans. Yeah, yeah, that's got to irritate him.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
That really does. I mean, and they're going for big
money in Woodside, which is just south of San Francisco.
It's like where all the these streets are paved with
gold type thing. They're gonna they'll get sacks of money
out of that place. That is so. Yeah, you're right,
the the weird association to the Newsom family.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah, it is odd. And you would think that, you know,
because of you know, how how close the you know,
what a powerful figure he is in the Democratic Party,
that maybe the wife would lay off. But it's the
wife's relative, right, the wife's right. The wife, Oh, but
she might be able to say, hey, look I married
to the governor.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Which your mind just chilling out. That's you know, that's right.
All right.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
So it's gonna be a ninety minute debate. There's gonna
be two breaks, and ABC, thank god, is allowing all
the television networks to simulcast the debate, so you see
it on you know, any number of TV stations, but
you'll only hear it here on KFI. We're not gonna
run anything else tonight between six and seven thirty other
than that debate, and so you're gonna be here. It
(27:28):
right here on KFI and then Moe Kelly will be around.
I will be home by then, and uh with with
the wrap up.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
And I'm just thinking about the amount of time that
Trump was coached in prior debates, you know, when he
went up against Biden and Clinton, and well, yeah, and
I and I just think about how he was Chris
Christie popped up on the screen for a second. I thought,
you know, Chris Christie coached him in that debate. Again,
(28:00):
he was the christ You got to get up in
his grill, you got to talk right over him. You
got it, because he's a he's got problems with the
way he speaks, and it'll throw him off his game.
And I don't know that that was the most successful.
So I'm wondering what advice Donald Trump is getting right now.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I have a feeling. Look, I don't know, I never
met him, but I have a feeling he ignores a
lot of advice, a lot of advice thrown his way,
and he's like, screw it, I'll do it my way.
But closing Statements was a coin toss and it was
held virtually on September third, with the candidate who won
the coin toss allowed to choose the order of closing
statements or podium placement. Trump won the coin toss and
(28:39):
chose to select the other the order of statements. So
the former president chose to offer the last closing statement,
which is what you want, yes, And then the podium
placement then would have been Kamala Harris's decision. And so
after the coin toss, Harris was allowed to choose the
podium placement. So when you see her tonight, she chose
that side.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
I mean, I think again, of less significance. The closing
statement is a real big win. You want to be
the last You're always want to be the last word.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Okay, we are going to ski daddle, but I know
Moe Kelly is going to be sitting here. Well, I'll
be sitting here until seven and then you know, in
case there's a big earthquake or anything that goes on,
but it'll be from six to seven thirty will be
the debate. It's the ABC presidential debates. I'm a fast
right here on KFI AM six forty and then a
(29:32):
wrap up at seven thirty, including your whole your whole
crew thing, do all with you?
Speaker 2 (29:37):
All right? Very good?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
We are moments away from this big, huge ass debate.
This is going to be wild tonight. I think there
are going to be more people that watch this debate
than the Biden debate, the Biden drum debate, I absolutely agree.
And that there was fifty million people who saw that debate. Yeah,
I mean those are you know, approaching you know, half
of Super Bowl numbers. So I think tonight will be
(30:00):
even bigger. All right, And then there's only going to
be two breaks during this debate, and and and so
we mostly chit chat. It'll be interesting to see, and
it's happening in moments moments from now. And I know,
if you're big into politics, you're very nervous. If you're
a Trump lover, you're a Maga guy, you're very nervous.
If you love Kamala Harris, you're very nervous for her.
(30:22):
But I think most people, they say thirty percent of
the people watching tonight will decide who to vote for
based on the performance tonight, which is utterly insane, but
all right, you have, but thirty percent, that's a significant number.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
No, I think it's that's a probably. That's amazing to me.
That's isn't it amazing to you? Mo? That thirty percent
of the people still haven't decided to the point that
they're going to go off of what they see tonight.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yeah, I just don't believe them.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I'm mine. I think right well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
I think a lot of people ignore politics. You know,
we don't hear a KFI. But if you go into
you know, a lot of states in the South or
in the Midwest, they don't, you know, they're living their lives.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (31:00):
I think it's more that they've made their decision and
maybe thirty percent of people are open to being that
might be persuaded.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Possibly that might be. Yeah, Okay, we're gonna get out
of here. The debate happening shortly right here. It's the
ABC News presidential debate simulcast here on KFI A M.
Six forty Mark, nice to see you.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
You're gonna walk, You're gonna talk this up right, it's
going to go.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Oh yeah, I'm not doing anything, have nothing to play.
Speaker 6 (31:29):
I would like to say that this is KFI and
KOST h D two Los Angeles and Orange County.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Okay, excellent, Okay, no, we will. I definitely will talk
this up right up to the you know, to the
top of the hour when the debate starts. But ABC,
you know, ABC is paying for all of this, and
so you know, we obviously have to give them credit
when we say the ABC News presidential debate simulcast right
here on kf I am six forty. But Mark Thompson
noticed we were watching CNN earlier and CNN was calling
(31:56):
it the CNN debate.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Yeah, I said that. They said the debate on CNN
is the way they put that right on CNN. Yeah,
but there was no reference to ABC anywhere. And as
I'm watching NBC, they're kind of doing the same thing
Canada's face off in first debate NBC News. You see
the NBC News legio. There is no ABC News logo anywhere. Now,
when they get to the actual debate, it will be
you know, the whole place is going to be festooned
(32:20):
with ABC News stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
And you know who else is not putting ABC News
debate on their channel?
Speaker 2 (32:25):
ABC?
Speaker 1 (32:28):
You think they would throw it up. But why do
you think moment, let me ask you, and then maybe
Mark and Chiman as well. Why you know, back in
the old days, and I'm talking even like four years ago,
there was a crowd in for the debate and that
made it, at least for me, more interesting than the
reaction of the crowd.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Absolutely, I think this actually works against former President Trump
because I think he gets energy from the crowd and
how people may respond, even if it's a jeer or
a boot, he feels and feeds off them. It helps
Kamala Harris in this instance.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Yeah. Yeah, he really plays to the room. I mean,
that's what Trump does. He'll even change his positions on
major policy based on the room. He'll really modify a
lot of what he says to get the room and
so not having the room or having the room empty, Yeah,
it's a net loss for Trump that way.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
If this debate does not go well for Kamala Harris
or does not go well for Donald Trump, do you
think there'll be a second or a third before the election?
Speaker 2 (33:27):
I doubt it. It's such a short time. Don't you
think moment's so comfortable.
Speaker 7 (33:30):
Look, we're halfway through September, falling tents and purposes. They
had to do a lot of wrangling just to get
him in for this one debate. I don't think, regardless
of the outcome, there won't be a second debate.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yeah, you don't think so.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
No, how about this. If Kamala Harris doesn't do well tonight,
let's say she passes out halfway through it, do you
think they replaced her on the ticket? I think that
ship has sailed. You know, all right, the debate is
going to start momentarily and we're going to have it
(34:03):
live here. ABC is running it, and again, ABC deserves
a lot of credit. They're paying the cameramen, they're paying
the electric, they paid for the set. They flew all
their people down there to broadcast this thing. And CNN
got pissed off last time because CNN ratings weren't as
high as Fox.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
On that on the last debate.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Yeah, it was crazy. Conway Show on demand on the
iHeartRadio app. Now you can always hear us live on
KFI AM six forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday,
and anytime on demand on the iHeart Radio app
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Thompson is
with us. We are almost one hour, about fifty five
minutes away from the big debate ABC News Presidential Debate
simulcast right here on KFI AM six forty at six o'clock.
(00:22):
Moe Kelly's coming in at five point thirty.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
He's rare to go.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
I just saw him in the hallways. He's all prepped
to come in.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Now, you're gonna mute his microphone the way the debate
people are gonna mute to when one of the other
people in the room, like you or myself are speaking.
That's a great idea. Yeah, we ought to try to emulate,
you know, the debate rules.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
I wish I had a button where I could just
literally shut them.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Staffos, step O.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Please don't start with me, buddy, don't start with me.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I'm not in the mood.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Oh, we got a lot going on here. Let's finish
up with this story that we had started. Because the
power outages are a big, big deal, especially if you're
in the fire area and you can't get the information
you need. Maybe you don't have you know, a battery
operated radio where you don't have TV and you see
the smoke and you smell the smoke and you know
(01:14):
it's coming towards you and you don't have the power
to run your you know, your information boxes. So let's
find out more about these huge power out Just up
to ten thousand customers in LEDWP out of power.
Speaker 3 (01:28):
It's taking them a little bit longer to get the
power back onto everyone. They're hoping that they will be
able to get power back to everybody today. And then
also the cool down in temperatures, even though it's still
going to be in the nineties, a little bit cooler,
they're hoping we'll be able to help them. But we
talked to some people in Highland Park yesterday who were
having to deal with the lack of power and the
(01:48):
lack of AC in this kind of temperatures. Here's what
one woman told us.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Yeah, just for a few few minutes and then I
went back on.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
But yeah, we did this power. Oh I was like,
oh my god, I'm going to be in the shower
all day trying to It's kind of a cool attitude.
Might just jump in the shower all day, going to
be in the shower all day to keep cool.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
People doing whatever they can to stay cool. Now again,
we were talking about some issues with schools. Yesterday, there
was about a dozen schools in the LAUSD's North region
that actually got out early. They had a minimum day
schedule because they were having issues with some of their
air conditioning units. Some of the portable units were having
to be brought in.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You know what, when I was growing up going to school,
I went through LAUSD, and uh, you know a lot
of the public schools here in Los Angeles up until
recently didn't have air conditioning at all. We didn't have
air condition growing up. I didn't have it in an elementary, junior, high,
or high school. No air conditioning.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Do you think it was cooler than in general, noticeably
cooler when you're a kid.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
Mmmm?
Speaker 1 (02:44):
No, I don't think there were. Look, we didn't have
the October surprises that we have now at the San
Anews were like longer stretches of hot Yes, I think
you're onto something, Yes, I think you're onto something.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Portable units we're having to be brought in to try
to keep kids safe coming back here alive. We've reached
out to LAUSD today right now we're not hearing any
reports at any minimum schedules. But again they are also
staffed up. City cruis are staffed up trying to deal
with all of these issues that we have with the heat,
trying to make sure that everybody has.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Okay, speaking of heat, let me lay some numbers on
you here. Okay, coming up twomorrow, in the San Fernando Valley,
the low is sixty, the high is eighty. On Thursday,
the low is fifty nine degrees. The high seventy eight
in the valley, seventy eight is going to be the
(03:34):
high seventy eight, eighty eight, ninety eight, one oh eight,
forty degree difference, almost a forty degree difference. In Burbank
from one Thursday to another. I'm gonna switch from shorts
to sweats. Yes, you gotta put a jacket on the
get a down jacket, bring that the sucker to work.
It's gonna be freezing on Thursday. Hope that passes that.
(03:55):
I'm gonna be freezing.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Power in there.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It's gonna be fifty nine degrees. Mark, that's free such.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah, yeah, I'll give you a hill. You me chilling overnight,
it'll be fifth that's right.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
But now you can open up your house and cool
it down with its fifty nine degrees in the valley.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
And look I'm not lying to you. I'm telling you
it's fifty nine degrees. And how about this on Wednesday
of next week, the highest sixty nine in Burbank and
the low is fifty four.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Wow, so that's really like a fall day.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
That's right. Fifty four degrees next Wednesday is the low.
Sixty nine is the high next Wednesday week from tomorrow?
Fifty four and seven and sixty nine.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Where are you getting all of this information? This is
my question on my cell phone. My god, that's a
magical device.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
It works great power, and that there.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Are places for people to go to stay cool. We'll
continue to monitor the situation throughout the southern California this
morning and let you know if they're on the up dates.
Right now, we're sending it back to you where hopefully
it's going to be cooler today. I mean, we'll just
take ten degrees cooler, right, ladies, Well you know we
thankfully Amberly is saying we're going to see some en
payments later on this week.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
All right, yeah, so bad bad virus. We have the
update at four pm on the on the fires. We
had the update on the bridge fire, the airport fire,
and the line fire. But how is this smoke going
to impact you? Impact your life? We see, we clearly
see it here in Burbank and we're twenty maybe as
(05:21):
the crow flies, I would say, thirty miles from where
the bridge fire is. Krozer, What does what does your drive.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
In every day?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
How many miles? About fifty? About fifty? Okay, abound fifty
miles and so from Claremont to Burbank roughly around forty
miles as the crow flies, and that I can clearly
see from our window that where that fire is forty
miles okay. So the smoke is going to impact a
lot of people here in southern California. How is it
(05:48):
going to impact.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
Your long When the air quality is poor due to wildfires,
you will feel symptoms. People who are more at risk,
like young children, the elderly, and those with heart and
lung disease, will feel it first.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
But we all need to know about it.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
So if you feel shortness of breath or running nose
when you're out and about among smoke, you see Davis
Health doctor Nick Kenyon says it's simple.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
You need to avoid it. Okay, that's pretty almost too simple.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I'm not too experiencing that. But I'm listening. I'm hearing
some music. Yes, and is that a symptoms symptom of it?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
I think that's Chris Little's hold music, low grade hold music.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Okay, but you know.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
Doctor ray Kuscherry who came on with this almost nightly
during COVID and helped us, you know, talk to us
off the ledge. He said, if your eyes are bothering you,
your lungs are also bothering you. He said, you may
not feel it in your lungs, but if your eyes
are watering and your eyes are bothering you because of
the smoke, your lungs are in PAS.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
That's exact same. That's a great grade.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Is that great to rule a thumb?
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah, yeah it is. He's a pullmonologist and he knows
the lungs well class pollmonologist. Yes.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
He teaches other pulmonologists how to be pulmonologists.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Wowology, that's right.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
Nobody wants to be signs now that we're coming out
of the pandemic.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
But unfortunately, when wildfire smoke gets that bad in this area,
we need to avoid it.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
We have to spend more time indoors.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
We have to close the windows.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
What audio? What do the audio? Did was trying? I
was going to count the number of words I actually
understood and it's still a zero.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
What audio did? They say? No, it's too garbled. Let's
use that. You got to go with this guy, God
worldfire smoke gets that.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
We have to spend more times. We have most of
the windows in a conditioning. My God, don't things that
we like to do.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Doctor Kenyon says, since twenty seventeen, these types of I
don't know what he's said.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah, there comes a time when you should just quote
doctor Kenyan and not actually use the audio.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
They don't things that we like to do.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Doctor Kenyon says, since twenty seventeen, these types of symptoms
are getting more and more common.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Oh, I see what she's doing. She's translating. She's translating
for the doctor.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Doctor Kenyon says, since twenty seventeen, these types of symptoms
are getting more more common, More and more people are
coming in and complaining about them. So now, he says,
medical professionals, we'll have to study what the long term
effects are. Since we're being exposed summer.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Who is the kid in the background taking piano lessons?
Why does he have to be on during this segment?
What's going on with kid? What's going on?
Speaker 4 (08:20):
Since we're being exposed summer? Poky outside avoid outdoor exercise
on his day inside? And if you can't, can you
wear it?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
In ninety five masks? And can you stop this?

if it's real or fake. I don't know whether it's
drug induced or it's totally sober.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
The nicest people I met show business, I think maybe
across the board though, was Casey Caseum. Okay, that makes
I found him to that makes sense, enchantingly nice. And
you know what's ironic is the only piece of audio
that everyone when it plays a city yelling at people.
(11:10):
You're right, that really is ironic. Nicest guy arguably in
the world. Right, And all that we know about is
is not on the phone. I want to concerted effort
around here.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I can't come out of these dead dog stories.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Up tempo records. Come on, good golly, miss Molly. We've
talked about it over and over. I want to concerted
effort around here, not to come out of the record
into a.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Dog dying, another dead dog story, and those pictures.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
I was supposed to see last week. That's okay, God,
that's such a great impression, such a terrific guy. And
you're right, that's the piece of tape that lives forever.
Right the one time he blew his stack. Everybody now
owns that all right?
Speaker 1 (12:00):
With the airport fire, where is Steve Gregor is he
on the line fire crows? I think he's on the line.
He's a tribute O Cane or Tribuco Canyon fire. Okay,
he was that he had just called us up.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I don't know if you heard to update the despite
what they said in the press conference of being more
than ten thousand, it's actually more than nineteen thousand acres.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Is that right?
Speaker 6 (12:16):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Oh my god, man, that thing exploded yesterday afternoon. It
was two hundred and seventy eight acres. That's the first
notification we got out. And right now the airport fire.
What did you say was croz nineteen thousand? Oh my god,
So that that earlier comment of nine thousand, thirty three
(12:37):
acres was way off? Yes, ninety three hundred, yeah, ninety
three hundred. You're right, Yeah, that was an hour ago
or two hours ago.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Yeah, well it was.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
It was accurate up to a point, I guess, but
they doubled it, more than doubled it.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Yep.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
And it's catching up, but we haven't gotten an update.
I think in the last little bit from where Corbyn
Carson is over there about in Sanbordina Mountains, but it's
catching up to that one because that's a nearly twenty
eight thousand.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Yeah, you're right, twenty seven nine to seven four twenty seven,
nine hundred and seventy four acres on that fire, the
Line fire twenty seven thousand, nine to forty seven, the
Airport fire nineteen twenty eight acres, and then the Bridge fire,
the smaller one still four thousand, one hundred and seventy
seven acres burning just north of the two ten Freeway
(13:24):
and north northeast, actually almost due north of Glendora, where
that fire is. And so we've got three major fires
burning and a lot of sleepless nights, a lot of
people up, you know, worried about what's going on with
their loved ones, with their cars, their homes. It's just
a really busy, busy time. But fortunately the all of
(13:48):
southern California is in for a tremendous cool down and
we're going to be seeing temperatures in the high sixties,
low seventies, even as far inland as as Burbank. Let
me check for people out there who live in the
Analope Valley what that looks like over the next couple
of next week or so.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Yeah, that's the thing. Though it's not gonna be for
a few days though, right Tim, that's right. But how
about this.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
You're not gonna believe me, But I'm gonna tell you
something here about the Analope Valley, and that's Lancaster, Palmdale,
the Analope Valley. One on Monday, this next Monday, coming up.
The low of fifty four, the high of sixty nine degrees,
sixty nine degrees. It is currently ninety two. It was
(14:33):
ninety seven was the high in Analope Valley. And we
have a huge, huge listenership out in Palmdale, Lancaster, in
the Annalope Valley. Man, they love KFI out there. I
don't blame them. I don't blame But if you can
hold on till next Monday, you're gonna get a big relief.
It's gonna be a little windy. The low of fifty
four degrees, the high of sixty nine degrees in the
(14:57):
Annalope Valley, sixty nine on Monday. That's out. That's unbelievable. Sure,
I mean it was one hundred and nineteen degrees out there.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Really, seventy nine eighty nine ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Why no, No, it was fifty.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
That's a fifty degree difference. I gotta do that on
my fingers. You know count degrees.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Now you The reason that's funny to me is that
you're like Stephen Hawking, is the truth event. You don't
need to do it on your fingers, but I love
that you do it on your fingers for effect.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
I do have to occasionally throw those pits down to
count this out. All right, we have coming up at
six o'clock. It's gonna be another busy day here on KFI.
Two busy days in a row. Yesterday with all the fires,
today with all the fires, and tonight at six o'clock
we have ABC News Presidential Debate simulcast right here on
KFI AM six forty that starts in one half hour
(15:47):
from now. Mo Kelly joins us next. Mark Thompson stays
with us. We'll do a little bit of the ramp
up of the debate. What you, guys, because you and
Moke Kelly are more into politics than I am. What
you're gonna be looking for, what you're not gonna be
looking for? What you might see, what you might not see,
what might happen It might not happen the whole run
on this debate tonight. Harris and Trump debate tonight is
(16:10):
going to be unbelievable off the charts in the ratings,
especially for people driving around their car. You can't get
home to see you because nobody gets off work at
five o'clock anymore, but you can't listen to it. Right
here on KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Mark Thompson's with us, and Moe Kelly joins, it's nice
to see you, buddy. Good to see you for this
big debate coming up. And if we get any more
information or updates on the big three big fires, we
will certainly have those for you. All Right, this is it,
the big debate. It happens literally in twenty four minutes
from now. Mo Kelly, let's start with you. What do
(16:51):
you expect tonight, Bob Well.
Speaker 7 (16:52):
I expect to fire works as two people, to be serious,
I expect different things from the different candidates.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I think they have different goals they want to achieve.
Speaker 7 (17:02):
I think former President Trump wants to not the vice
president off her game, distract her, have it be about him,
have it be about negative banter back and forth, and
if he's successful, then he would make her look as
if she's not ready for prime time unintended, and make
her seem to any undecided voter that she's not ready
(17:26):
to be president.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
That's his goal, her goal.
Speaker 7 (17:29):
I think she's going to be speaking to the main camera,
looking at America and say, look, I'm not going to
be caught up in that. I am the person who
is best suited for the job. Look at him, you know,
see what, look at his antics and see that I'm
about serious business.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Here's my policy.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Why Mark, why do you think that there was a
big fight about turning the mics on or keeping them
off or what was that all about.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Well, the Trump people wanted to maintain this mute system
that was agreed upon by the Biden camp and the
Trump camp. And it maybe that the Harris people felt
that she could at least opportunistically jump in to kind
of check him on a fact, at least have that
(18:11):
option open. It also might have been a psychological thing,
like to know that she can jump in might have
been something that would throw him off his beam. That said,
I think a little too much is being made of that,
but that would be my suspicion because they gave on
it anyway, So it continues to be a mute a
(18:34):
mike situation. As you know. The one thing I would
say that Trump will do, and he can probably do
it to some success tonight, is to attach Harris to
the border policy and to problems at the border. Now
she can parry back that he chaoed legislation that would
have taken care of that border situation. But I really
(18:56):
feel as though this is based on their attack ads,
which have been I think very effective. The Trump attack
ads on Harris have been really effective. I think that
he's going to make some political hay of that tonight,
and I'd be surprised if he didn't. You know, all
of the the.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
Video that is accusing Kamala Harris of flip flopping, it
all comes from one CNN interview in twenty nineteen, all
of it, all of that video when you see, you know,
she's against fracking, she's against you know, she she wants
a strong, you know, not open border, but a little
more relaxed. And then there was a third one there
(19:34):
about the economy. But it all comes back to that
one interview, and if it wasn't for that one interview,
none of that video would exist, or at least they
would have to, you know, certainly look for it.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
I mean, the flip flopping thing I think she will handle,
don't you agree, mo? I mean I think by now
she is loaded with responses on that that. You know, Look,
time has passed. I've considered a number of facts that
really weren't in evidence at the time. Yeah, I've modified
my positions. It would be nice if the former president
were able to do that as well.
Speaker 7 (20:05):
I think to agree, Yes, I would agree, but also
in a more conventional time, it would have been more important.
This is not going to be a policy Leyden discussion tonight.
This is going to be filled with insults and Harry's good. Now,
what is going to be the advantage for former President
Trump is Kamala Harris will have to defend herself as
(20:28):
a candidate and will also have to defend the record
of the Biden administration where she is vice president, didn't
drive the bus, but still was on the bus, and
has to account for the good and the bad of
Biden policy.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
You know, I'm surprised that that you know, her positioning
her position on fracking. You know, I'm not a far
left wing liberal, but I don't even like fracking, and
I think she may have been onto something to say
she was against it. I think most of the people
country against fracking.
Speaker 7 (21:01):
Yes, but I don't think most people in this country
are into nuance and discussing that debate. I don't think
most people know that we're producing more oil energy than
ever before. And if you don't include that into the
discussion about fracking, that you don't have the real context
to properly assess what she meant by that.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Also think that most people in this country don't live
in Pennsylvania, where tracking is actually a big part of
that economy. That's why she flipped, right, But to flip
for one state, well, she needs that state, I mean,
she absolutely needs that state.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
All right, we are going to take a small break.
We'll come back, and then the debate starts. The actual
ABC News presidential debate starts. We're going to simulcast right
here on KIM six forty. It starts at six pm.
And then if we have any more information on these
three fires that are burning. We got the line fire
up in San Bernardino, the airport fire, and Tribuco Canyon
(21:54):
and the surrounding area, and then the Bridge fire just
off the two ten freeway just a little bit northeast
of Claremont. Will have any more updates on acreage and
containment for you right here on KFI AM six forty.
And don't forget major lottery pick tonight. That could be
worth I think eight hundred million dollars. Wow, wouldn't that
(22:16):
be nice to win it? And then if we did,
we would all be on an awesome vacation. We could
rent out an entire cruise ship and just be the
only passengers.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
We were just watching KTLA Mo Kelly's with as Mark
Thompson as well as well, and was watching KTLA and
they said some pretty gruesome footage of two what looks
like very expensive homes in the Airport fire which is
in Orange County, the Tribuco Canyon fire, and man, oh man,
if that's getting into homes, that could be a whole
new ballgame down there. If we have an update, we
(22:56):
will have that for you before six o'clock. From six
o'clock till seven o'clock until seven thirty. I should say
we're doing the ABC News presidential debate simulcast right here
on kf I am six forty. All right, let me
ask Moe Kelly and Mark Thompson. Somebody emailed us here
with the question for the two fellas, if there was
a full primary this year, do you think the nominee
(23:20):
would be Kamala Harris Well Kelly?
Speaker 7 (23:23):
I possibly, not, definitely, but the full primary doesn't really
make any difference. People sometimes forget that the primary is
not required. There are a lot of parties like the
Green Party, Libertarian Party. They go to a hotel, have
an orgy, come out, here's our nominee, Jill Stein. You
know that's a better convention. No, but I'm saying many
(23:46):
times it's just a weekend get together. And we didn't
have full primaries of all fifty states until the nineteen seventies,
so people sometimes forget that they're not necessary.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Mark Thompson tell me something I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
I think that is a strong man argument, the idea
somehow that the primary didn't yield this candidate. Somehow she's
weaker because she wasn't tested by the primaries. I mean
she would still have gone into any kind of the
primary as the vice president. She probably would have had
a lot of half from the Democratic Party behind her.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Wrong, Patti Piope. All right, so we're gonna see the
debate starts night at six o'clock. There's some weird rules
about this debate. You can't bring any notes with you.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Yeah, they'll let you bring with you a pad and
writing implement so in other words, they'll be taking notes,
but they're not allowed to bring notes, right.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And there's also I think I read somewhere where both
both podiums have to be the same, you know, like
she can't be on a riser.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Right, That's exactly. And the visual mo I thought was
really really weak when she sat down to an interview
with Walls, and on the CNN interview she looked tiny
because of the camera angle. And I'm not saying that,
you know, I don't know how man people noticed it,
but on the three shot it was really claring.
Speaker 7 (25:01):
Well, this is an interesting point if you're a student
of history, and I know Mark you know this, and
Tim you know this, But the visuals matter. Going back
to Nixon and Kennedy and how Nixon was sweating during
the televised portion debate.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
But if you listen to the debate on the radio,
you thought.
Speaker 7 (25:18):
That Nixon won, but televivision made it look like he
lost because he looked flustered and overheating.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
So the visuals do matter. And the debate is literally in.
You know, it'll start around in ten minutes from now,
and it's just moments away, the presidential debate around fifteen,
around ten minutes or so away. Both candidates have arrived
in Philadelphia. Their campaign surrogates are already on the ground
providing spin already, and the spin room afterwards.
Speaker 2 (25:49):
You saw who's the providing spin, didn't you, Tim, No,
it's among I think Newshom is one person providing spin.
But on the GOP side, RFK Junior is providing. He's
a big trumpet.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Now do you know, did you see there's a fundraiser
going on in California for Donald Trump and they're gonna
raise you know, a couple million dollars or so. And
you know who's the head of the head of that fundraiser.
It's it's Gavin Newsom's wife's family.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I know, that's crazy.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
They're big Republicans. Yeah, yeah, that's got to irritate him.
Speaker 2 (26:24):
That really does. I mean, and they're going for big
money in Woodside, which is just south of San Francisco.
It's like where all the these streets are paved with
gold type thing. They're gonna they'll get sacks of money
out of that place. That is so. Yeah, you're right,
the the weird association to the Newsom family.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Yeah, it is odd. And you would think that, you know,
because of you know, how how close the you know,
what a powerful figure he is in the Democratic Party,
that maybe the wife would lay off. But it's the
wife's relative, right, the wife's right. The wife, Oh, but
she might be able to say, hey, look I married
to the governor.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
Which your mind just chilling out. That's you know, that's right.
All right.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
So it's gonna be a ninety minute debate. There's gonna
be two breaks, and ABC, thank god, is allowing all
the television networks to simulcast the debate, so you see
it on you know, any number of TV stations, but
you'll only hear it here on KFI. We're not gonna
run anything else tonight between six and seven thirty other
than that debate, and so you're gonna be here. It
(27:28):
right here on KFI and then Moe Kelly will be around.
I will be home by then, and uh with with
the wrap up.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
And I'm just thinking about the amount of time that
Trump was coached in prior debates, you know, when he
went up against Biden and Clinton, and well, yeah, and
I and I just think about how he was Chris
Christie popped up on the screen for a second. I thought,
you know, Chris Christie coached him in that debate. Again,
(28:00):
he was the christ You got to get up in
his grill, you got to talk right over him. You
got it, because he's a he's got problems with the
way he speaks, and it'll throw him off his game.
And I don't know that that was the most successful.
So I'm wondering what advice Donald Trump is getting right now.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
I have a feeling. Look, I don't know, I never
met him, but I have a feeling he ignores a
lot of advice, a lot of advice thrown his way,
and he's like, screw it, I'll do it my way.
But closing Statements was a coin toss and it was
held virtually on September third, with the candidate who won
the coin toss allowed to choose the order of closing
statements or podium placement. Trump won the coin toss and
(28:39):
chose to select the other the order of statements. So
the former president chose to offer the last closing statement,
which is what you want, yes, And then the podium
placement then would have been Kamala Harris's decision. And so
after the coin toss, Harris was allowed to choose the
podium placement. So when you see her tonight, she chose
that side.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
I mean, I think again, of less significance. The closing
statement is a real big win. You want to be
the last You're always want to be the last word.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Okay, we are going to ski daddle, but I know
Moe Kelly is going to be sitting here. Well, I'll
be sitting here until seven and then you know, in
case there's a big earthquake or anything that goes on,
but it'll be from six to seven thirty will be
the debate. It's the ABC presidential debates. I'm a fast
right here on KFI AM six forty and then a
(29:32):
wrap up at seven thirty, including your whole your whole
crew thing, do all with you?
Speaker 2 (29:37):
All right? Very good?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
We are moments away from this big, huge ass debate.
This is going to be wild tonight. I think there
are going to be more people that watch this debate
than the Biden debate, the Biden drum debate, I absolutely agree.
And that there was fifty million people who saw that debate. Yeah,
I mean those are you know, approaching you know, half
of Super Bowl numbers. So I think tonight will be
(30:00):
even bigger. All right, And then there's only going to
be two breaks during this debate, and and and so
we mostly chit chat. It'll be interesting to see, and
it's happening in moments moments from now. And I know,
if you're big into politics, you're very nervous. If you're
a Trump lover, you're a Maga guy, you're very nervous.
If you love Kamala Harris, you're very nervous for her.
(30:22):
But I think most people, they say thirty percent of
the people watching tonight will decide who to vote for
based on the performance tonight, which is utterly insane, but
all right, you have, but thirty percent, that's a significant number.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
No, I think it's that's a probably. That's amazing to me.
That's isn't it amazing to you? Mo? That thirty percent
of the people still haven't decided to the point that
they're going to go off of what they see tonight.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Yeah, I just don't believe them.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
I'm mine. I think right well, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
I think a lot of people ignore politics. You know,
we don't hear a KFI. But if you go into
you know, a lot of states in the South or
in the Midwest, they don't, you know, they're living their lives.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (31:00):
I think it's more that they've made their decision and
maybe thirty percent of people are open to being that
might be persuaded.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Possibly that might be. Yeah, Okay, we're gonna get out
of here. The debate happening shortly right here. It's the
ABC News presidential debate simulcast here on KFI A M.
Six forty Mark, nice to see you.
Speaker 2 (31:21):
You're gonna walk, You're gonna talk this up right, it's
going to go.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Oh yeah, I'm not doing anything, have nothing to play.
Speaker 6 (31:29):
I would like to say that this is KFI and
KOST h D two Los Angeles and Orange County.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Okay, excellent, Okay, no, we will. I definitely will talk
this up right up to the you know, to the
top of the hour when the debate starts. But ABC,
you know, ABC is paying for all of this, and
so you know, we obviously have to give them credit
when we say the ABC News presidential debate simulcast right
here on kf I am six forty. But Mark Thompson
noticed we were watching CNN earlier and CNN was calling
(31:56):
it the CNN debate.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Yeah, I said that. They said the debate on CNN
is the way they put that right on CNN. Yeah,
but there was no reference to ABC anywhere. And as
I'm watching NBC, they're kind of doing the same thing
Canada's face off in first debate NBC News. You see
the NBC News legio. There is no ABC News logo anywhere. Now,
when they get to the actual debate, it will be
you know, the whole place is going to be festooned
(32:20):
with ABC News stuff.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
And you know who else is not putting ABC News
debate on their channel?
Speaker 2 (32:25):
ABC?
Speaker 1 (32:28):
You think they would throw it up. But why do
you think moment, let me ask you, and then maybe
Mark and Chiman as well. Why you know, back in
the old days, and I'm talking even like four years ago,
there was a crowd in for the debate and that
made it, at least for me, more interesting than the
reaction of the crowd.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Oh.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Absolutely, I think this actually works against former President Trump
because I think he gets energy from the crowd and
how people may respond, even if it's a jeer or
a boot, he feels and feeds off them. It helps
Kamala Harris in this instance.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Yeah. Yeah, he really plays to the room. I mean,
that's what Trump does. He'll even change his positions on
major policy based on the room. He'll really modify a
lot of what he says to get the room and
so not having the room or having the room empty, Yeah,
it's a net loss for Trump that way.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
If this debate does not go well for Kamala Harris
or does not go well for Donald Trump, do you
think there'll be a second or a third before the election?
Speaker 2 (33:27):
I doubt it. It's such a short time. Don't you
think moment's so comfortable.
Speaker 7 (33:30):
Look, we're halfway through September, falling tents and purposes. They
had to do a lot of wrangling just to get
him in for this one debate. I don't think, regardless
of the outcome, there won't be a second debate.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yeah, you don't think so.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
No, how about this. If Kamala Harris doesn't do well tonight,
let's say she passes out halfway through it, do you
think they replaced her on the ticket? I think that
ship has sailed. You know, all right, the debate is
going to start momentarily and we're going to have it
(34:03):
live here. ABC is running it, and again, ABC deserves
a lot of credit. They're paying the cameramen, they're paying
the electric, they paid for the set. They flew all
their people down there to broadcast this thing. And CNN
got pissed off last time because CNN ratings weren't as
high as Fox.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
On that on the last debate.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Yeah, it was crazy. Conway Show on demand on the
iHeartRadio app. Now you can always hear us live on
