Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KMF I AM six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. All right,
Hurricane Milton. Milton's coming is gonna be bad. It is
gonna be really bad. Florida has already had enough of
hurricane season. Now they say this might be the worst
(00:22):
in one hundred years. Nobody, well, very few people, we're
alive the last time this happened. If that's true, if
it hits Tampa in the worst one hundred years, and
even the people who are who were alive were one
hundred and six hundred and seven, they remember it.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
But it's gonna be really bad. Milton is going.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
To be a horrible, horrible hurricane for a lot of people.
You're gonna see a lot of damage, tons of it,
and it's exploding into a Category five, the highest ranking
of a hurricane.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Nine hundred and five milli bars.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
It seems like each bulletin we get from the National
Hurricane Center is more and more unbelievable, jaw dropping.
Speaker 5 (01:12):
Yeah, it's because of the satellite presentation. What they're saying
on the radar that since the hurricane hunters were in
there last it's actually looks like it is intensified, and
the very modern computer forecasts that we have anticipated it
would intensify and by the way, continue to intensify their forecast.
(01:33):
It takes it to one eighty five.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
The big.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
Farcery is now the entire.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Peninsula of Florida, including south part of the audio.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
The big newcery is that how we do spots now,
we just tuck them into the story. Eventually that's going
to be how we do it here, you know, just
listening to a news start on eighty five.
Speaker 5 (01:56):
The bigery is now the entire peninsula of Florida, including
southeast Florida, including the Keys, including the east coast of Florida,
is all under some kind of alert, either tropical storm
warnings tropical storm watches.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
This thing is supposed to hit the west side of Florida,
almost the entire coast at one hundred and eighty five
miles an hour at the core of it, at the
center of the eye of it, one hundred and eighty
five mile an hour winds. There are very few structures
that can tolerate them.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Hurricane watches, hurricane warnings, and storm surge warnings. And we'll
get to that in more detail. Here and just a moment.
But the idea here is this super intense hurricane one
hundred and eighty mile an hour winds with nine Zho
five pressure now picking up speed as it's moving to
the east. And this area in here is like this
(02:54):
long runway of very very pristine conditions. So there's no
re in terms of the environment that would seem to
keep it from continuing to be super strong or intensifying
a little bit more.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Some of the computer models.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Actually lower the pressure even more into the upper east hundreds.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Wow, this is gonna be bad. It's gonna be bad.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
The mayor of Tampa Bay is telling everybody to get
the hell out.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
Coming off of Hurricane Helene, getting back up on our feet.
But we need to take Milton seriously. The trajectory is
still directly towards Tampa Bay, maybe a bit to the south.
But you know how those predictions are, they are predictions.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
Krozer.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Do you think anyone's going to use the lame term
that Milton is burroling into Florida?
Speaker 7 (03:47):
I was thinking that's an unusual name. Sometime's gonna come
out of that. Milton burling into Florida. Oh boy, we
we talked. I think it was a year ago when
a friend of mine I went to high school with.
She lived on that Gulf coast side, about half hour
to an hour south of that Pete, Tampa area, and
(04:07):
I just saw she posted that with this one coming in.
She didn't move on that last one last year, but
she she took off and she's out like her sisters
or something like that, in the safe place a little
bit further up the coast.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
That's good. Yeah, so she's she's said.
Speaker 7 (04:21):
I think people are definitely taking this one a little
more seriously even than the previous one.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
This is gonna be bad for Tampa, man, really really bad.
Speaker 6 (04:28):
The interstate is just about at a standstill. So people
are evacuating. The evacuation notice has been given for Hillsboro County.
So please prepare quickly and get out of the city.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Get out of the city. It doesn't be They don't
say it any clearer than.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
That, get out of the city, Get.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Out of the city. Leave while you can.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
What we have said before still holds true. You hide
from the win and run from the water. And you
don't have to run far. You don't have to go
to another state. You just have to get to higher ground.
But this is going to be an event like none other.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Lee to hear that.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
But this is going to be an event like none other.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
It's going to be an event that we've never seen before.
And we've seen some radical hurricanes.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
You know.
Speaker 9 (05:27):
I'm looking at the traffic in Hillsboro County in Florida
getting out of Tampa and it's slammed. Yeah, it's three
hours later right now, and there's a ton of traffic
there just getting away from Tampa.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
And nobody on the westbound sides. Yeah, nobody.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Why do they opened up both sides, you know, let
people get the hell out of there. Unbelievable. And if
I was running things, I would do that. But here's
what they're.
Speaker 6 (05:53):
Saying, get out of the city, Get out of the city.
And but this is going to be an event like
none other.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Wow, that's serious, man, that is serious.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Helene was mostly a water event for us. This is
going to be wind, water, storm, surge, rain, you name it.
It's going to bring everything towards our community. We're doing
all that we can. As you all know, we work
very well together here in Hillsboro County. We're doing everything
that we can to keep you safe, but there is
(06:26):
a level of responsibility with this hurricane. We can avoid
any loss of life if people listen and you evacuate,
especially from that predicted storm surge. We are doing all
that we can to get this household debris up off
the streets. Unfortunately, we've run out of time and we
(06:47):
won't be able to get the yard waste up. So
do what you can to bring that into the garage,
secure it in some way whatever fashion you can.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Man, this is going to be some storm, and I
guess it's going to hit Wednesday, Wednesday afternoon. We might
be on the air when this hits on Wednesday or
Wednesday morning.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
When did you hear, Chris, that'd be on the early
side of it. But yeah, they're saying mid late Wednesday
into Thursday. M man, oh man, it's amazing how fast
this one grew. It's even faster. It seemed like Helleen
grew two weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
And I don't know if you saw some of the
models there, but they had there was another storm in
front of this, a smaller storm, and it swallowed it
up to become one big hurricane. And this is coming
towards Florida, and this might be something that we all
may never see again. This might, you know, be the
(07:39):
worst storm in one hundred years, and it may not
happen again for one hundred years. So I don't know
what you can do. I mean, look for people listening
in Florida. You guys are you know, listening to local
officials and stuff. But if you have relatives there, maybe
a grandmother or grandfather, got to check in on to
see if they're okay.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Because some of these older, you.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Know, stubborn guys, they've they've seen storms before and they're
going to try to ride it out. God, it's good.
I'm gonna sit here, write it out. I was here
in nineteen forty eight. Well what happened in forty eight? Oh,
big storm wiped everybody out. I was here in seventy two,
was here in ninety two, I was here two years ago.
All right, Well, this is gonna be a storm like
we've never seen before. I don't know if you heard
(08:19):
the previous report, but this is what they're saying.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Get out of the city, but this is going to
be an event like none other.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
There you go, there's your warning. Get out.
Speaker 10 (08:30):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
All right's get back to this hurricane. At six oh five,
we have David Vasse coming on with us. I think
he's in San Diego. He is okay to talk about
the Los Angeles Dodgers. They're gonna be playing Game three
of the National League Division Series tomorrow night. So six
(08:57):
o'clock tonight David Vasse talked about the Dodgers and what
their chances are. All Right, Hurricane Milton, no good, no good,
It's gonna hit Wednesday, and it's gonna be the biggest
storm in one hundred years, they're saying one hundred years.
Speaker 11 (09:13):
For the third time since August, another hurricane is expected
to hit Florida, this one called Hurricane Milton, which has
strengthened to a Category five storm with an anticipated impact
along the Gulf Coast. Heavy rain has already hit the
Sunshine State. This was in Broward County. Coastal cities like
(09:33):
Tampa are still cleaning up from Hurricane Helene, embracing for
landfall this week.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
If it stays on the predicted trajectory, we are in
for over a century storm here with Milton.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
It'd be great if if somebody used the term like this,
we are in for an s kicker and use the
whole term.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
You know what that means, right, Bellio, You won't say it,
but you don't what that means, right, Yes, that's the
term they should use, you.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Know, trajectory.
Speaker 6 (10:06):
We are in for a s kicker over a century
storm here with Milton.
Speaker 11 (10:12):
Many homeowners are taking it seriously, stocking up with water, plywood,
and sand bags.
Speaker 12 (10:17):
The entire Florida Peninsula on the golf on the Gulf
side has the potential to have major impacts from storm surge.
How that storm ultimately develops in terms of the track
will obviously have a big impact in terms of which
areas are going to get damped more damage than others.
Speaker 11 (10:38):
There's currently mandatory evacuations in place in numerous counties on
the West coast.
Speaker 10 (10:43):
This.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
You know, I think that the hurricane is probably the
only storm, or the only act of nature where you
buy a lot of the thing.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
That's going to wipe you out.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
You know, you buy a ton of bottled water and
you're going to get wiped out by water. Like if
you're going through a heat wave, you'd never buy a heater,
or if a fire was coming your way, you'd never
stock up on matches or gasoline, but we stock up
on water, fresh drinking water. And the problem is not
going to be the actual storm itself that's going to
(11:15):
do a lot of damage, but it's going to be
the aftermath. If you watch any of these small neighborhoods,
small towns in North Carolina and Georgia, it's the aftermath
that's wiping people out.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
No food, no.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Electricity, no self service, nothing, and a lot of people
are still missing from that lot of flooding going on
and they're going to get another dose of it.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
This is going to be brutal for Florida.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
So we'll keep an eye on it and make sure
you have all the details right here on KFI. So
keep it on KFI and we will be doing round
the clock coverage, whether it hits during the day Garyan Channing,
John colevelt Our Show, Mo Kelly, or if it hits
at night with George Nori or during wake Up Call.
Whenever it hits, you're gonna have all the details right
(12:06):
here on KFI. And it is going to be gruesome,
just brutal, the worst storm in one hundred years, one
years terrible, all right.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
We have some other news going on here.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
There was an explosion in Long Beach. Yeah, one person
injured an explosion right there in Long Beach.
Speaker 13 (12:30):
The explosion came from an adu on the back of
this property. Long Beach Fire telling us that that adu
was almost completed, it was under construction, and that it
did have a permit on the step aside, so you
can see what's going on.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
An adu is like a small little guesthouse that now
you can put on your property. You have to have
local you know, authority is sort of blown out. It's
the state that says, you know, we don't have enough
housing in California, so you can just build up, build
these old tiny guest houses apartments on your property without
all the permits in the paperwork that used to entail.
Speaker 13 (13:05):
We just got to tell you standing here, there's just
tons of glass and nails here on the floor. There's
a ton of.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
And when you buy things and build things where you
don't need a lot of permits, this can happen.
Speaker 13 (13:20):
There's a ton of debris that's scattered not only on
this property, as you can obviously see, but also across
this entire neighborhood. This is now our four of this
investigation news chop er four giving us an overhead view.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Of that destruction.
Speaker 13 (13:34):
Look at that. We do know a man in his
late thirties was taken to a local trauma center. A
spokesperson for the fire department does tell me that man
was able to walk to them to get help, but
at this point they don't know his condition. A family
in the front main home, which also has a lot
of damage from this, is now getting help from the
Red Cross. Their house is no longer safe to be inside.
(13:55):
We did talk to a couple who live a few
houses down. They say they heard the explosion. They have
big concerns about this neighborhood.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
I was in the garage working out, and then all
of a sudden I heard a loud sonic boom.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
How about I was just in the garage, right? You
always have to tell people how great you are.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I was in the garage working out.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Great.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Great, how about you're just in the garage? Got it
mighty getting swollen?
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Yeah, was doing a heavy pump, had a serious pump going.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
What a crazy town we live in where everybody always
has to tell them tell you about what they're doing, always, always, always, always.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Was working out.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
I was in the garage working out, and then all
of a sudden I heard a loud sonic boom.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Did you stop your workout? Did you put a little
pause on the workout? You weren't doing any raps?
Speaker 2 (14:52):
Then the unicycle or the stationary bike?
Speaker 7 (14:57):
You Apparently he's also an expert at things the way
they sound, because he knew that there was a sonic boom.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
That's right, Yeah, he's into it.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
I was in the garage working out, and.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
That's a great line. That's in the garage working.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Out, and all of a sudden I heard a loud
sonic boom, and basically I ran out to check because
to see if it was like my house or something,
and then.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
Tell the workout came to stop there for a little while.
Did you get a juice as you walked down?
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Did you get a juice?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
It's like a I don't know, like a berry with
also a broccoli thing going.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
But you ran out.
Speaker 4 (15:30):
Then my house was okay. So I ran out to
the front and I saw the neighbors.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
And they were juicing too, So you guys juice together
they were working out. Yeah, guys, I ran a quick
five k on the way down.
Speaker 9 (15:42):
Turned my babble off because I'm learning how to speak
a foreign language.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
You were constantly telling you how great they are. Yeah,
that's so great. Well, I fortunately it didn't damage the
portion nine eleven I purchased recently cash pit'll gosh for it.
That's uh gray? That that sort of charcoal checker boy,
I mean a charcoal gray. You're seeing like a like
(16:10):
I call it a slate. Yes, slate's good. Slate's good.

Chalkboard gray house all up in the air.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
All the insolent, insulation and stuff was floating in the air.

I thought it was a diabetic.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
All the insolent, all the insulin went out, inslation.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
And stuff was floating in the air. A lot of
debris was all over.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
They call that Christmas in Long Beach and all the
insulation comes down on you.
Speaker 7 (16:36):
So he was in his garage working out, working out, right,
and he heard a sonic boom which wasn't not a
sonic boom, but yes, and stepped out of the garage
to see if it was his house.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
That's right, Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
I was in the garage working out.

And you know, he does tell us that a lot
of neighbors came running out immediately. He said, there's a
lot of good community here on his block. Of course,
so many of them are concerned with what exactly caused this.
The fire department does tell us their number one priority
right now the.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Guys who work out in Long Beach. Is that possible?
Speaker 13 (17:32):
The fire department does tell us their number one priority
right now is cleaning up and making sure that the
property is secure, making sure that all the gas lines
and the power lines nearby are secure as well. So
they say they will not leave until everyone's safe. Live
in Long Beach, Pretty Hope, NBC four News.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
There she goes, how was in the garage working out?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
And good for you. Then they come Moody, I.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
Was in the garage working out, and that's the thing
working out.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Well, what were you doing after that? Well, I'm directing
something for a Netflix, so I was in between working
out and directing for Netflix.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Can you get back to the explosion? Oh yeah, yeah, God,
don't forget the babbel. Yeah, I forgot the explosion. I'm
learning language.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
I'm a directing a little short for Netflix, and then
I'm also working out. Can you get back to the explosion.
Oh god, you know, I'm so sorry. I get so
tied up in my life. I forgot about the guy
next to me dying. Dying is what he was doing,
but I forgot. I was working out, juicing, babble, working out.
Speaker 4 (18:34):
You know.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I'm also planning a cruise.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
I'm on a list there where I get discounts on cruises.
My family we're all cruisers. Yeah, we're cruisers, sir.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Can you get back?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Oh God, is so sorry the explosion? Yeah yeah, yeah.
What'd you guys want to know about it?
Speaker 10 (18:51):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
There's a woman that was attacked in Lincoln Heights on
a bus bench and then they did an overhead shot
on k CAL channel nine, and there was just a
guy sleeping on the bunch bench bus bus bench. He
looked exhausted, fairly early to be tired five thirty eight
or so in the afternoon, but he was exhausted, egg exhausted.
(19:24):
All Right, we got some breaking news here for you,
and I'm sure people in Florida are going to hate this.
Seventy percent of gas stations in Fort Myers or out
of gas, according to gasbuddy dot com. Seventy percent or
out of gas. I don't know if people are hoarding
it or if people are just all filling up at
(19:46):
the same time trying to get the hell out, but
I think people are probably realizing that there aren't going
to be gas stations open for probably a week or
two after the storm. So to run your j if
you have a portable generator, you need gas, and most
of them ron gas, summer solar, but most of the ron gas,
(20:08):
and you need that gas to lean for the next
week or two while you're out of power. Because the
power is going out in Florida. It just is until
we can figure out how to put all these lines underground,
and Florida presents a different challenge of putting you know,
cable wiring and electric underground because of the water table
(20:31):
and how easy it is to get to the water
table in Florida. Just you know, remember when you like,
if you're up to the beach where you're near the ocean,
you're you know, five to six ten twenty feet away,
and you dig down, you get water real quickly. That's
the way the entire state is with Florida. You dig down,
you get water pretty quickly, pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
So we're keeping an eye on that, don't forget.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Also, the Dodgers traveled to San Diego for Game three
of the National League Division Series, and they take on

gorgeous it is, and the neighbors do love all the
tourism at draws, but they don't love people by the
bus loads sneaking onto their driveways, their porches, their ponds.
Go This year, they're having to put up some safeguards
against the waves of influencers who keep coming back.

I have been asked, where's the parking area, where are
the bathrooms, where's the food facilities?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
There's none of that here.
Speaker 8 (23:48):
Local officials say those crowded, narrow streets are a hazard.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
If we had to have first respondents go in that
area in case of urgency. They may not be to
get through in time, and so that was all concerned.
Speaker 8 (23:58):
So this year the neighbors are taking action and they
have raised thousands to close down these streets and pay
deputies to post up and keep these.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Busloads of people from coming through.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Wow, busloads of people coming to your property to watch
the leaves change.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
That's wild man. The sheriff says.
Speaker 8 (24:13):
Two roads have been closed this year and it's proven
effective at maintaining the peace for neighbors while still encouraging
tourists to visit the public areas of their beautiful community.
So you want to deter some of that behavior, but
you don't want to keep people from coming here.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
No, we love it, right, It's just we love it.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
We just don't want it. We want them, we want
the money. We just don't want the people.
Speaker 7 (24:34):
No, we we love it, right, It's just what has
happened with the social media influence.
Speaker 8 (24:39):
Ultimately, we want people come Fromond, We want.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
People to enjoy the scenery, the foliage shop in our shops.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
All those type of things.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
It just has become too much on these particular roads.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 8 (24:50):
And to be clear, the local governments made the decision
to shut down the road. But it was the neighbors
that raised all that money to have deputies make sure
everyone is obeying the signs, and everyone insists they I
definitely still want people to visit. I mean, take a
look up above once again from our drone. This is
the view here where we are at Billings Farm and Museum.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
It is unbelievable. That sounds beautiful, Billings Farm.
Speaker 8 (25:09):
This is the view here where we are at Billings
Farm and Museum.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
It is unbelievable.
Speaker 8 (25:14):
All of those changing colors, and the sheriff, the neighbors.
They do still want people to come and visit. You
just cannot sneak onto people's private property to try to
get a good photo.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Yeah, a tough balance there.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
They want people to spend money, but they also don't want,
you know, a thousand people walking across the yard.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
I understand that. I get it. I get it, all right.
We'll keep an eye on this.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Hurricane Milton coming towards Florida is gonna be the worst
in one hundred years. Might be a category six. I
was unaware they went up to category six, but Belio says,
we're looking at six.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Woo man, oh man, that's gonna be a tough couple
of days, couple couple of weeks for Florida.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
It's all going to start on Wednesday.
Speaker 10 (25:56):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from AFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
We got a lot to get to, including theme parks
like Knotsbury Farm, Six Flags, Magic Mountain. A lot of
people like going out to these places find out what's new.
Speaker 11 (26:14):
I know.
Speaker 16 (26:15):
Speaking of Knotsbury Farm, the theme park's parent company has
just merged with another amusement park, Giant six.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Flags, six Flags and knots I think that's part of
Cedar Point as well.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I think they're all combining.
Speaker 16 (26:28):
The eight billion dollar merger between the two rival companies
six Flags and Cedar Fair has now created the largest
park operator in the US. We are talking forty two
amusement and water parks across seventeen different states. Over the
last few years, six Flags has struggled to bring in
more guests, especially after the rising average ticket price from
(26:48):
twenty nine to thirty six dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Now that that's been them Wait wait, wait, wait what the.
Speaker 16 (26:54):
Rising average ticket price from twenty nine to thirty six dollars?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
What is this nineteen seventy two. When was it twenty
nine dollars?
Speaker 16 (27:02):
Price from twenty nine to thirty six dollars?
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Twenty nine is the average price of a ticket for
Magic Mountain or not Spury Farm. What I think she
meant one hundred and twenty nine twenty nine.
Speaker 16 (27:15):
To thirty six dollars. Now that that's been a merger,
so worried that those prices will continue climbing, or that
the parks design and nostalgic charm will be completely rebranded. However,
others are hopeful, looking forward to new rides, improved park infrastructure,
and memorable guest experiences.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yes, yes, yes, all right, two big mergers six Flags
Cedar Entertainment, City Point Entertainment, which also owns Not Spurry Farm.
All one big family. So maybe you can buy tickets
at not Spurry Farm, and you've also either use them
or get a discount at six Flags Magic Mountain.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
So congratulations, ding dog? All right?
Speaker 1 (27:56):
A dog shuts a freeway down that's not good.
Speaker 17 (28:00):
Is going viral after bringing freeway traffic to a complete
stop in Long Beach.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
It happened a couple of.
Speaker 17 (28:05):
Weeks ago, but this video has been getting traction on
the web ever since you can see the highway patrol
in hot pursuit of the four legged fugitive loose on
the ninety one Freeway.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Late last month.
Speaker 17 (28:16):
Several drivers even jumped into help officers nab the runaway.
The dog was eventually captured.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Yeah, people always get nervous when you see a dog
running on a freeway, and everybody has the same reaction.
You pull your shoulders up really high, and you and
you put your teeth together and you suck in air.
You go, your shoulders go up, your teeth clinch and
you suck in air.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Ah, that's what we do. We have the same reaction
to uh dogs, dogs. You know, I saw that dog
on the freeway.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Actually was it was a dog in Burbank, and I
was I was in the garage working out. I was
doing a serious pump and I was prepping my green,
Big Green cleanse for the week. And you know, I
babbling too. Yeah, I'm big into the self nourishment game.
And I was in Babbel trying to learn Spanish and
(29:08):
Italian at the same time.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
I think I got that nice.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
And I was also doing my weekly homeless outreach volunteer schedule.
And I'm also big in the Personal Growth Game Personal
Growth Area.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
So you are a well rounded renaissance.
Speaker 15 (29:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
So I had all that going and I saw this
dog on the freeway and by the time I explained
everybody what I was doing, that dog is, well, he's gone.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
He died.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
No, he left, I don't know. He ran off somewhere
he got bored. Yeah, he also ran from me. A
lot of people in my life have taken off. Why
is that because you talk about yourself constantly twenty four
hours a day. Oh okay, big dog with you, Big
dog with you. Yeah, but one of a dog is
out of freeway, man, it really is. Everybody has the
same reaction. Scary, scary.
Speaker 17 (29:50):
Several drivers even jumped in to help afficers nab the runaway.
The dog was eventually captured and taken into custody, placed
in the back of a cruiser.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Oh, they time up the handcuff that sucker. What's going on?
Speaker 8 (30:03):
Dang?
Speaker 17 (30:03):
The whole ninety one had to be shut.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Down for that.
Speaker 15 (30:05):
Wow, that's not a freeway you want to shut down?
My goodness, I guess none of ours really are.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
But that's right, that's right. You can say about it
like the four h five.
Speaker 15 (30:15):
Wow, that's not a freeway you want to shut down.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Or the seven ten Wow, that's not.
Speaker 15 (30:20):
A freeway you want to shut It's not a freeway
you want to shut about the two ten Wow, that's
not a freeway you want to shut down.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
No, no, no, my.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Goodness, yam all right.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Well, the craziness continuous here in southern California. U CLA
is in the news with their stadium that they lost
to the Veterans Administration.
Speaker 18 (30:47):
C LA is offering a solution after a federal judge
block access to its baseball stadium and practice field. The
university leases the property from the Veteran Administration's West LA campus,
but the judge ended the lease in dead ordering two
hundred and twenty veterans housing units to be built on
the site. UCLA is now proposing to increase the rent
(31:08):
it pays from three hundred twenty thousand dollars a year
to six hundred thousand for the next twelve months. It
would also continue to provide health care services to veterans
at little or no cost, and the university promises to
hand over at least two acres in twelve months. We
now await the judges respond.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Okay, that's a great reaction from UCLA. It's like, yeah,
we're really worried about the veterans. Why don't we just
pay more for the property. No, that's not it. They
need housing. They don't need more money. They need housing.
They need a place to rest their head every night,
and not on second base. So looks like UCLA kind
(31:48):
of a half assed. You know, I'm attempted at solving this.
But the veterans, they start, they need to be treated
as the heroes that they were going out and fighting
for the country and not you know, put on a
on a list to get homes. At one point in
the future, they said they're going to lease the property
(32:09):
for six hundred thousand for the next year. That's not
gonna work. That's not gonna work. We treat veterans so
horribly in this country. It is outrageous, it really is.
And that's sort of just a microcosm of it. You know,
UCLA has had that field for thirty some years, thirty
four years or so, and in those thirty four years,
(32:30):
we could have had probably four or five hundred units
built or more on that property for veterans.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Instead we got a baseball field there. It's not good,
not good.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
I don't know when we're gonna treat veterans the way
they should be treating this country.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
But I don't think we're close. I don't think we're close.
All right, don't forget tomorrow. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Wednesday, that big storm is coming in Milton is going
to be It's gonna go from a category two to
a category five. It might be a category six. And
listen to this. There might be winds when it hits
Florida at one hundred and eighty to one hundred and
eighty five some maybe even the one hundred and ninety
(33:13):
mile an hour range. You can't withstand that. If you're
outside and the wind is one hundred and eighty miles
an hour, good luck, You're done.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
You can't do it. You can't do it.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
So we're gonna keep an eye on that storm and
it's gonna hit Florida sometime on Wednesday, but you're gonna
see it in the news now until Wednesday because of
Uh Helene and all the damage that storm did, and
so it's really on top of mind on everybody's you know,
everybody's thinking about it.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
It's on every newscast, it's every.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Time you go online, you see these poor people who
have absolutely nothing, absolutely nothing, and now you're going to
see even more people this time in Florida, Central Florida.
They're gonna get wiped out by this storm, wiped out
and I and I guarantee you're going to see this.
This storm in Florida is going to be the final
(34:06):
straw for a lot of people live there, and they're
going to be moving back to Texas, back to California,
back to Oregon, back to wherever they're from. This storm
will be the tipping point for them. And so if
you have relatives, we have friends who live in Florida,
there's gonna be a lot of U hauls come in
this direction because they're not going to tolerate this. Every
(34:26):
single summer, these storms are going to get worse and
worse and worse, and they're not going to tolerate this.
They can't they can't rebuild, get wiped out, rebuild, keep
and keep getting wiped out. And they're not going to
get the insurance that they need to rebuild as well.
Insurance companies are going to bail. It's going to be
a major problem for that state of Florida. But people
you'll see a lot of those U hauls coming back
(34:46):
to California. And people tolerate the earthquakes every once in
a while, but they're not going to tolerate these storms.
All Right, we're live on KFI and we'll come back.
David Vase from the Dodgers is gonna be with this.
We're talking about tomorrow night's game and what happened over
the weekend at Dodgers Stadium when we come back on
KFI AM six forty 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,
(35:10):
and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's KMF I AM six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. All right,
Hurricane Milton. Milton's coming is gonna be bad. It is
gonna be really bad. Florida has already had enough of
hurricane season. Now they say this might be the worst
(00:22):
in one hundred years. Nobody, well, very few people, we're
alive the last time this happened. If that's true, if
it hits Tampa in the worst one hundred years, and
even the people who are who were alive were one
hundred and six hundred and seven, they remember it.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
But it's gonna be really bad. Milton is going.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
To be a horrible, horrible hurricane for a lot of people.
You're gonna see a lot of damage, tons of it,
and it's exploding into a Category five, the highest ranking
of a hurricane.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Nine hundred and five milli bars.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
It seems like each bulletin we get from the National
Hurricane Center is more and more unbelievable, jaw dropping.
Speaker 5 (01:12):
Yeah, it's because of the satellite presentation. What they're saying
on the radar that since the hurricane hunters were in
there last it's actually looks like it is intensified, and
the very modern computer forecasts that we have anticipated it
would intensify and by the way, continue to intensify their forecast.
(01:33):
It takes it to one eighty five.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
The big.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
Farcery is now the entire.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Peninsula of Florida, including south part of the audio.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
The big newcery is that how we do spots now,
we just tuck them into the story. Eventually that's going
to be how we do it here, you know, just
listening to a news start on eighty five.
Speaker 5 (01:56):
The bigery is now the entire peninsula of Florida, including
southeast Florida, including the Keys, including the east coast of Florida,
is all under some kind of alert, either tropical storm
warnings tropical storm watches.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
This thing is supposed to hit the west side of Florida,
almost the entire coast at one hundred and eighty five
miles an hour at the core of it, at the
center of the eye of it, one hundred and eighty
five mile an hour winds. There are very few structures
that can tolerate them.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Hurricane watches, hurricane warnings, and storm surge warnings. And we'll
get to that in more detail. Here and just a moment.
But the idea here is this super intense hurricane one
hundred and eighty mile an hour winds with nine Zho
five pressure now picking up speed as it's moving to
the east. And this area in here is like this
(02:54):
long runway of very very pristine conditions. So there's no
re in terms of the environment that would seem to
keep it from continuing to be super strong or intensifying
a little bit more.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Some of the computer models.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Actually lower the pressure even more into the upper east hundreds.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Wow, this is gonna be bad. It's gonna be bad.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
The mayor of Tampa Bay is telling everybody to get
the hell out.
Speaker 6 (03:21):
Coming off of Hurricane Helene, getting back up on our feet.
But we need to take Milton seriously. The trajectory is
still directly towards Tampa Bay, maybe a bit to the south.
But you know how those predictions are, they are predictions.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
Krozer.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Do you think anyone's going to use the lame term
that Milton is burroling into Florida?
Speaker 7 (03:47):
I was thinking that's an unusual name. Sometime's gonna come
out of that. Milton burling into Florida. Oh boy, we
we talked. I think it was a year ago when
a friend of mine I went to high school with.
She lived on that Gulf coast side, about half hour
to an hour south of that Pete, Tampa area, and
(04:07):
I just saw she posted that with this one coming in.
She didn't move on that last one last year, but
she she took off and she's out like her sisters
or something like that, in the safe place a little
bit further up the coast.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
That's good. Yeah, so she's she's said.
Speaker 7 (04:21):
I think people are definitely taking this one a little
more seriously even than the previous one.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
This is gonna be bad for Tampa, man, really really bad.
Speaker 6 (04:28):
The interstate is just about at a standstill. So people
are evacuating. The evacuation notice has been given for Hillsboro County.
So please prepare quickly and get out of the city.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Get out of the city. It doesn't be They don't
say it any clearer than.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
That, get out of the city, Get.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Out of the city. Leave while you can.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
What we have said before still holds true. You hide
from the win and run from the water. And you
don't have to run far. You don't have to go
to another state. You just have to get to higher ground.
But this is going to be an event like none other.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Lee to hear that.
Speaker 6 (05:15):
But this is going to be an event like none other.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
It's going to be an event that we've never seen before.
And we've seen some radical hurricanes.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
You know.
Speaker 9 (05:27):
I'm looking at the traffic in Hillsboro County in Florida
getting out of Tampa and it's slammed. Yeah, it's three
hours later right now, and there's a ton of traffic
there just getting away from Tampa.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
And nobody on the westbound sides. Yeah, nobody.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Why do they opened up both sides, you know, let
people get the hell out of there. Unbelievable. And if
I was running things, I would do that. But here's
what they're.
Speaker 6 (05:53):
Saying, get out of the city, Get out of the city.
And but this is going to be an event like
none other.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Wow, that's serious, man, that is serious.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Helene was mostly a water event for us. This is
going to be wind, water, storm, surge, rain, you name it.
It's going to bring everything towards our community. We're doing
all that we can. As you all know, we work
very well together here in Hillsboro County. We're doing everything
that we can to keep you safe, but there is
(06:26):
a level of responsibility with this hurricane. We can avoid
any loss of life if people listen and you evacuate,
especially from that predicted storm surge. We are doing all
that we can to get this household debris up off
the streets. Unfortunately, we've run out of time and we
(06:47):
won't be able to get the yard waste up. So
do what you can to bring that into the garage,
secure it in some way whatever fashion you can.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Man, this is going to be some storm, and I
guess it's going to hit Wednesday, Wednesday afternoon. We might
be on the air when this hits on Wednesday or
Wednesday morning.
Speaker 7 (07:07):
When did you hear, Chris, that'd be on the early
side of it. But yeah, they're saying mid late Wednesday
into Thursday. M man, oh man, it's amazing how fast
this one grew. It's even faster. It seemed like Helleen
grew two weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
And I don't know if you saw some of the
models there, but they had there was another storm in
front of this, a smaller storm, and it swallowed it
up to become one big hurricane. And this is coming
towards Florida, and this might be something that we all
may never see again. This might, you know, be the
(07:39):
worst storm in one hundred years, and it may not
happen again for one hundred years. So I don't know
what you can do. I mean, look for people listening
in Florida. You guys are you know, listening to local
officials and stuff. But if you have relatives there, maybe
a grandmother or grandfather, got to check in on to
see if they're okay.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Because some of these older, you.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Know, stubborn guys, they've they've seen storms before and they're
going to try to ride it out. God, it's good.
I'm gonna sit here, write it out. I was here
in nineteen forty eight. Well what happened in forty eight? Oh,
big storm wiped everybody out. I was here in seventy two,
was here in ninety two, I was here two years ago.
All right, Well, this is gonna be a storm like
we've never seen before. I don't know if you heard
(08:19):
the previous report, but this is what they're saying.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Get out of the city, but this is going to
be an event like none other.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
There you go, there's your warning. Get out.
Speaker 10 (08:30):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
All right's get back to this hurricane. At six oh five,
we have David Vasse coming on with us. I think
he's in San Diego. He is okay to talk about
the Los Angeles Dodgers. They're gonna be playing Game three
of the National League Division Series tomorrow night. So six
(08:57):
o'clock tonight David Vasse talked about the Dodgers and what
their chances are. All Right, Hurricane Milton, no good, no good,
It's gonna hit Wednesday, and it's gonna be the biggest
storm in one hundred years, they're saying one hundred years.
Speaker 11 (09:13):
For the third time since August, another hurricane is expected
to hit Florida, this one called Hurricane Milton, which has
strengthened to a Category five storm with an anticipated impact
along the Gulf Coast. Heavy rain has already hit the
Sunshine State. This was in Broward County. Coastal cities like
(09:33):
Tampa are still cleaning up from Hurricane Helene, embracing for
landfall this week.
Speaker 6 (09:38):
If it stays on the predicted trajectory, we are in
for over a century storm here with Milton.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
It'd be great if if somebody used the term like this,
we are in for an s kicker and use the
whole term.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
You know what that means, right, Bellio, You won't say it,
but you don't what that means, right, Yes, that's the
term they should use, you.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Know, trajectory.
Speaker 6 (10:06):
We are in for a s kicker over a century
storm here with Milton.
Speaker 11 (10:12):
Many homeowners are taking it seriously, stocking up with water, plywood,
and sand bags.
Speaker 12 (10:17):
The entire Florida Peninsula on the golf on the Gulf
side has the potential to have major impacts from storm surge.
How that storm ultimately develops in terms of the track
will obviously have a big impact in terms of which
areas are going to get damped more damage than others.
Speaker 11 (10:38):
There's currently mandatory evacuations in place in numerous counties on
the West coast.
Speaker 10 (10:43):
This.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
You know, I think that the hurricane is probably the
only storm, or the only act of nature where you
buy a lot of the thing.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
That's going to wipe you out.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
You know, you buy a ton of bottled water and
you're going to get wiped out by water. Like if
you're going through a heat wave, you'd never buy a heater,
or if a fire was coming your way, you'd never
stock up on matches or gasoline, but we stock up
on water, fresh drinking water. And the problem is not
going to be the actual storm itself that's going to
(11:15):
do a lot of damage, but it's going to be
the aftermath. If you watch any of these small neighborhoods,
small towns in North Carolina and Georgia, it's the aftermath
that's wiping people out.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
No food, no.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Electricity, no self service, nothing, and a lot of people
are still missing from that lot of flooding going on
and they're going to get another dose of it.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
This is going to be brutal for Florida.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
So we'll keep an eye on it and make sure
you have all the details right here on KFI. So
keep it on KFI and we will be doing round
the clock coverage, whether it hits during the day Garyan Channing,
John colevelt Our Show, Mo Kelly, or if it hits
at night with George Nori or during wake Up Call.
Whenever it hits, you're gonna have all the details right
(12:06):
here on KFI. And it is going to be gruesome,
just brutal, the worst storm in one hundred years, one
years terrible, all right.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
We have some other news going on here.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
There was an explosion in Long Beach. Yeah, one person
injured an explosion right there in Long Beach.
Speaker 13 (12:30):
The explosion came from an adu on the back of
this property. Long Beach Fire telling us that that adu
was almost completed, it was under construction, and that it
did have a permit on the step aside, so you
can see what's going on.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
An adu is like a small little guesthouse that now
you can put on your property. You have to have
local you know, authority is sort of blown out. It's
the state that says, you know, we don't have enough
housing in California, so you can just build up, build
these old tiny guest houses apartments on your property without
all the permits in the paperwork that used to entail.
Speaker 13 (13:05):
We just got to tell you standing here, there's just
tons of glass and nails here on the floor. There's
a ton of.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
And when you buy things and build things where you
don't need a lot of permits, this can happen.
Speaker 13 (13:20):
There's a ton of debris that's scattered not only on
this property, as you can obviously see, but also across
this entire neighborhood. This is now our four of this
investigation news chop er four giving us an overhead view.

Of that destruction.

Look at that. We do know a man in his
late thirties was taken to a local trauma center. A
spokesperson for the fire department does tell me that man
was able to walk to them to get help, but
at this point they don't know his condition. A family
in the front main home, which also has a lot
of damage from this, is now getting help from the
Red Cross. Their house is no longer safe to be inside.
(13:55):
We did talk to a couple who live a few
houses down. They say they heard the explosion. They have
big concerns about this neighborhood.

You know.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
Can you get back?
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Oh God, is so sorry the explosion? Yeah yeah, yeah.
What'd you guys want to know about it?
Speaker 10 (18:51):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
There's a woman that was attacked in Lincoln Heights on
a bus bench and then they did an overhead shot
on k CAL channel nine, and there was just a
guy sleeping on the bunch bench bus bus bench. He
looked exhausted, fairly early to be tired five thirty eight
or so in the afternoon, but he was exhausted, egg exhausted.
(19:24):
All Right, we got some breaking news here for you,
and I'm sure people in Florida are going to hate this.
Seventy percent of gas stations in Fort Myers or out
of gas, according to gasbuddy dot com. Seventy percent or
out of gas. I don't know if people are hoarding
it or if people are just all filling up at
(19:46):
the same time trying to get the hell out, but
I think people are probably realizing that there aren't going
to be gas stations open for probably a week or
two after the storm. So to run your j if
you have a portable generator, you need gas, and most
of them ron gas, summer solar, but most of the ron gas,
(20:08):
and you need that gas to lean for the next
week or two while you're out of power. Because the
power is going out in Florida. It just is until
we can figure out how to put all these lines underground,
and Florida presents a different challenge of putting you know,
cable wiring and electric underground because of the water table
(20:31):
and how easy it is to get to the water
table in Florida. Just you know, remember when you like,
if you're up to the beach where you're near the ocean,
you're you know, five to six ten twenty feet away,
and you dig down, you get water real quickly. That's
the way the entire state is with Florida. You dig down,
you get water pretty quickly, pretty quickly.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
So we're keeping an eye on that, don't forget.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Also, the Dodgers traveled to San Diego for Game three
of the National League Division Series, and they take on
the Padres tomorrow Tuesday night.
Speaker 2 (21:07):

Fresh and easy. Zen She Sushi. Yeah they dog with
that sushi. All right, I let's do something a little
(21:29):
more positive here in Vermont, Man, there are a lot
of people. We just had Robin Bertolucci, our boss, came
back from that part of the world, went back to
see the leaves change.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
Now BELLYO.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
You see that you're a child of Colorado. You grew
up in Colorado. The aspen trees change every year. Must
be beautiful.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Huh, it's so beautiful. Ah, I bet yeah, it's just
so beautiful. Right.
Speaker 15 (21:56):
Can I finish my cracker?
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Okay, thank you. When you're done with that cracker, you
come on and tell us how great it is. I will,
all right. In the meantime, we'll listen to this.
Speaker 8 (22:06):
So what'stock for Montenne to catch fire on social media
this time of year? It is no surprise given how
gorgeous it is, and the neighbors do love all the
tourism at draws, but they don't love people by the
bus loads sneaking onto their driveways, their porches, their ponds.
Go This year, they're having to put up some safeguards
against the waves of influencers who keep coming back.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
This morning.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
Fall foliage in full swing in states like Vermont.
Speaker 9 (22:29):
It is time to start planning your fall trips if
you have not already.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
What is the term for them? Isn't there a term
for people that go see leaves? Like leavers or I don't.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Know what there's a term for it though, Yeah, like leafers, Yeah,
leafers or leaf.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
There's something. There's a term for that though, But.
Speaker 8 (22:49):
As tourists and influence your swarm New England to witness
these changing leaves residents.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Here, is it leaf breeders or is that something else?
Speaker 2 (23:00):
Leaf peepers? Leaf peepers? All right, yeah, you might be
a leaf peeper.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Residents here are determined to avoid some of the unexpected
chaos that resulted last year.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Oh what happened last year?
Speaker 15 (23:11):
They are walking on the lawn the property to take
their photo shoots.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
I have been asked, where's the parking area, where are
the bathrooms? Where's the food facilities?
Speaker 1 (23:22):
That's say the guy's house. People just come up and ask, hey,
where are the facilities. It's just my house. Where you
can that's so great, can.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Play some workout. They be in the garage, get babbel,
different language.
Speaker 15 (23:37):
Here, lawn the property to take their photo shoots.
Speaker 13 (23:42):
I have been asked, where's the parking area, where are
the bathrooms, where's the food facilities?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
There's none of that here.
Speaker 8 (23:48):
Local officials say those crowded, narrow streets are a hazard.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
If we had to have first respondents go in that
area in case of urgency. They may not be to
get through in time, and so that was all concerned.
Speaker 8 (23:58):
So this year the neighbors are taking action and they
have raised thousands to close down these streets and pay
deputies to post up and keep these.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Busloads of people from coming through.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Wow, busloads of people coming to your property to watch
the leaves change.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
That's wild man. The sheriff says.
Speaker 8 (24:13):
Two roads have been closed this year and it's proven
effective at maintaining the peace for neighbors while still encouraging
tourists to visit the public areas of their beautiful community.
So you want to deter some of that behavior, but
you don't want to keep people from coming here.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
No, we love it, right, It's just we love it.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
We just don't want it. We want them, we want
the money. We just don't want the people.
Speaker 7 (24:34):
No, we we love it, right, It's just what has
happened with the social media influence.
Speaker 8 (24:39):
Ultimately, we want people come Fromond, We want.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
People to enjoy the scenery, the foliage shop in our shops.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
All those type of things.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
It just has become too much on these particular roads.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Yeah, I get it.
Speaker 8 (24:50):
And to be clear, the local governments made the decision
to shut down the road. But it was the neighbors
that raised all that money to have deputies make sure
everyone is obeying the signs, and everyone insists they I
definitely still want people to visit. I mean, take a
look up above once again from our drone. This is
the view here where we are at Billings Farm and Museum.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
It is unbelievable. That sounds beautiful, Billings Farm.
Speaker 8 (25:09):
This is the view here where we are at Billings
Farm and Museum.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
It is unbelievable.
Speaker 8 (25:14):
All of those changing colors, and the sheriff, the neighbors.
They do still want people to come and visit. You
just cannot sneak onto people's private property to try to
get a good photo.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
Yeah, a tough balance there.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
They want people to spend money, but they also don't want,
you know, a thousand people walking across the yard.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
I understand that. I get it. I get it, all right.
We'll keep an eye on this.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Hurricane Milton coming towards Florida is gonna be the worst
in one hundred years. Might be a category six. I
was unaware they went up to category six, but Belio says,
we're looking at six.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (25:48):
Woo man, oh man, that's gonna be a tough couple
of days, couple couple of weeks for Florida.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
It's all going to start on Wednesday.
Speaker 10 (25:56):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from AFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
We got a lot to get to, including theme parks
like Knotsbury Farm, Six Flags, Magic Mountain. A lot of
people like going out to these places find out what's new.
Speaker 11 (26:14):
I know.
Speaker 16 (26:15):
Speaking of Knotsbury Farm, the theme park's parent company has
just merged with another amusement park, Giant six.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Flags, six Flags and knots I think that's part of
Cedar Point as well.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
I think they're all combining.
Speaker 16 (26:28):
The eight billion dollar merger between the two rival companies
six Flags and Cedar Fair has now created the largest
park operator in the US. We are talking forty two
amusement and water parks across seventeen different states. Over the
last few years, six Flags has struggled to bring in
more guests, especially after the rising average ticket price from
(26:48):
twenty nine to thirty six dollars.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
Now that that's been them Wait wait, wait, wait what the.
Speaker 16 (26:54):
Rising average ticket price from twenty nine to thirty six dollars?
Speaker 1 (26:58):
What is this nineteen seventy two. When was it twenty
nine dollars?
Speaker 16 (27:02):
Price from twenty nine to thirty six dollars?
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Twenty nine is the average price of a ticket for
Magic Mountain or not Spury Farm. What I think she
meant one hundred and twenty nine twenty nine.
Speaker 16 (27:15):
To thirty six dollars. Now that that's been a merger,
so worried that those prices will continue climbing, or that
the parks design and nostalgic charm will be completely rebranded. However,
others are hopeful, looking forward to new rides, improved park infrastructure,
and memorable guest experiences.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Yes, yes, yes, all right, two big mergers six Flags
Cedar Entertainment, City Point Entertainment, which also owns Not Spurry Farm.
All one big family. So maybe you can buy tickets
at not Spurry Farm, and you've also either use them
or get a discount at six Flags Magic Mountain.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
So congratulations, ding dog? All right?
Speaker 1 (27:56):
A dog shuts a freeway down that's not good.
Speaker 17 (28:00):
Is going viral after bringing freeway traffic to a complete
stop in Long Beach.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
It happened a couple of.
Speaker 17 (28:05):
Weeks ago, but this video has been getting traction on
the web ever since you can see the highway patrol
in hot pursuit of the four legged fugitive loose on
the ninety one Freeway.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Late last month.
Speaker 17 (28:16):
Several drivers even jumped into help officers nab the runaway.
The dog was eventually captured.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Yeah, people always get nervous when you see a dog
running on a freeway, and everybody has the same reaction.
You pull your shoulders up really high, and you and
you put your teeth together and you suck in air.
You go, your shoulders go up, your teeth clinch and
you suck in air.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
Ah, that's what we do. We have the same reaction
to uh dogs, dogs. You know, I saw that dog
on the freeway.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Actually was it was a dog in Burbank, and I
was I was in the garage working out. I was
doing a serious pump and I was prepping my green,
Big Green cleanse for the week. And you know, I
babbling too. Yeah, I'm big into the self nourishment game.
And I was in Babbel trying to learn Spanish and
(29:08):
Italian at the same time.
Speaker 2 (29:09):
I think I got that nice.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
And I was also doing my weekly homeless outreach volunteer schedule.
And I'm also big in the Personal Growth Game Personal
Growth Area.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
So you are a well rounded renaissance.
Speaker 15 (29:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
So I had all that going and I saw this
dog on the freeway and by the time I explained
everybody what I was doing, that dog is, well, he's gone.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
He died.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
No, he left, I don't know. He ran off somewhere
he got bored. Yeah, he also ran from me. A
lot of people in my life have taken off. Why
is that because you talk about yourself constantly twenty four
hours a day. Oh okay, big dog with you, Big
dog with you. Yeah, but one of a dog is
out of freeway, man, it really is. Everybody has the
same reaction. Scary, scary.
Speaker 17 (29:50):
Several drivers even jumped in to help afficers nab the runaway.
The dog was eventually captured and taken into custody, placed
in the back of a cruiser.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Oh, they time up the handcuff that sucker. What's going on?
Speaker 8 (30:03):
Dang?
Speaker 17 (30:03):
The whole ninety one had to be shut.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Down for that.
Speaker 15 (30:05):
Wow, that's not a freeway you want to shut down?
My goodness, I guess none of ours really are.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
But that's right, that's right. You can say about it
like the four h five.
Speaker 15 (30:15):
Wow, that's not a freeway you want to shut down.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Or the seven ten Wow, that's not.
Speaker 15 (30:20):
A freeway you want to shut It's not a freeway
you want to shut about the two ten Wow, that's
not a freeway you want to shut down.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
No, no, no, my.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Goodness, yam all right.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Well, the craziness continuous here in southern California. U CLA
is in the news with their stadium that they lost
to the Veterans Administration.
Speaker 18 (30:47):
C LA is offering a solution after a federal judge
block access to its baseball stadium and practice field. The
university leases the property from the Veteran Administration's West LA campus,
but the judge ended the lease in dead ordering two
hundred and twenty veterans housing units to be built on
the site. UCLA is now proposing to increase the rent
(31:08):
it pays from three hundred twenty thousand dollars a year
to six hundred thousand for the next twelve months. It
would also continue to provide health care services to veterans
at little or no cost, and the university promises to
hand over at least two acres in twelve months. We
now await the judges respond.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Okay, that's a great reaction from UCLA. It's like, yeah,
we're really worried about the veterans. Why don't we just
pay more for the property. No, that's not it. They
need housing. They don't need more money. They need housing.
They need a place to rest their head every night,
and not on second base. So looks like UCLA kind
(31:48):
of a half assed. You know, I'm attempted at solving this.
But the veterans, they start, they need to be treated
as the heroes that they were going out and fighting
for the country and not you know, put on a
on a list to get homes. At one point in
the future, they said they're going to lease the property
(32:09):
for six hundred thousand for the next year. That's not
gonna work. That's not gonna work. We treat veterans so
horribly in this country. It is outrageous, it really is.
And that's sort of just a microcosm of it. You know,
UCLA has had that field for thirty some years, thirty
four years or so, and in those thirty four years,
(32:30):
we could have had probably four or five hundred units
built or more on that property for veterans.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Instead we got a baseball field there. It's not good,
not good.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
I don't know when we're gonna treat veterans the way
they should be treating this country.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
But I don't think we're close. I don't think we're close.
All right, don't forget tomorrow. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Wednesday, that big storm is coming in Milton is going
to be It's gonna go from a category two to
a category five. It might be a category six. And
listen to this. There might be winds when it hits
Florida at one hundred and eighty to one hundred and
eighty five some maybe even the one hundred and ninety
(33:13):
mile an hour range. You can't withstand that. If you're
outside and the wind is one hundred and eighty miles
an hour, good luck, You're done.
Speaker 2 (33:23):
You can't do it. You can't do it.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
So we're gonna keep an eye on that storm and
it's gonna hit Florida sometime on Wednesday, but you're gonna
see it in the news now until Wednesday because of
Uh Helene and all the damage that storm did, and
so it's really on top of mind on everybody's you know,
everybody's thinking about it.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
It's on every newscast, it's every.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
Time you go online, you see these poor people who
have absolutely nothing, absolutely nothing, and now you're going to
see even more people this time in Florida, Central Florida.
They're gonna get wiped out by this storm, wiped out
and I and I guarantee you're going to see this.
This storm in Florida is going to be the final
(34:06):
straw for a lot of people live there, and they're
going to be moving back to Texas, back to California,
back to Oregon, back to wherever they're from. This storm
will be the tipping point for them. And so if
you have relatives, we have friends who live in Florida,
there's gonna be a lot of U hauls come in
this direction because they're not going to tolerate this. Every
(34:26):
single summer, these storms are going to get worse and
worse and worse, and they're not going to tolerate this.
