Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's k IF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am sixty and you're listening to the Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
Last night was Halloween and we got I don't think
any reports of kids getting hit by car. I remember that, Crochet.
Did you see anything on the news?
Speaker 4 (00:16):
Nothing in our nothing that I've seen, nothing on any
of the wires.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
That's great.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
So thank you, thank you, thank you to everybody who's listening,
everybody who's driving around southern California. I drove last night
for some reason. I got a I got crazy with
fat Burger at Marongo. I had a fat Burger on Saturday.
Then I had one to go on Sunday, and I
(00:43):
get hooked. I have I'm not well mentally, and when
I hook into a fast food place, I'm like Steph
fush Man, I hone in on it. I zero in
on it, and I eat it until I can't eat
it anymore.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
I heard you mention the other day about fat Burger
being in there. I didn't even realize that because I
just went to the default of on that that night,
especially after the party, which to the Wallburger that seems
to be like our sort of oh yeah, yeaheah and
I'm telling you, they do a damn good burger themselves,
but Yeahnburger, I would definitely have gone for.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
I got a Fat Burger, chili, cheese, lettuce, and ketchup
exact exactly what I wanted with the skinny fries, and
so I had two meals at Marongo with Fat Burger.
And then last night I realized, oh wait, there's another
one here on Burbank, and I think Kwanga, I s
something to go over there. So I left work here,
(01:34):
droll over to Fat Burger, and I drive like four
miles an hour on Halloween. I'm looking around. I'm looking around.
My head's on a swivel, and I'm stopping. Every time
I see a kid, I stop and I give him
twenty feet. I don't I'm not plowing at any kids.
I'm not doing that. I want to make sure these
kids get home and they enjoy their lives. It was
Jin at home, yeah, giving out candy all night long.
(01:56):
A couple of hundred kids stop by. Wow, damn, a
couple of hundred kids. She had a bowl and a
huge bowl of candy, and it was probably three or
four hundred pieces, and it was nearly.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Gone by the end. Of the night. Wow. And and
she loves it, you know.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
She left the one thing that she said when I
got home, and I thought it was really it was
really cute. There was a there was a girl, she
must have been about seven or eight years old, knocked
on the door. She was with her parents, and she
was alone. She was, you know, either an only child
or or you know. The kids you know took her
and you know, went trigger treating with her alone. And
(02:34):
Jen opens the door and holds the ball out and says,
take anything you like. And she looks down and she
takes a piece of candy, and she looks up and
she goes and the little kid, who was only like
again seven or eight years old, looks at my wife
and goes, oh my god, you're so beautiful.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
How about that? Wow?
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Yeah, And and she goes, yeah, she got the whole
bowl and a check for like five hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
It was weird.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
But but either that kid was raised properly, which I
think she was, or told to say that. I don't know,
but but that was really a cool deal. We had
a ton of kids come by, and every single one
of them, without exception, well mannered.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Are you familiar with the It was a story earlier
this week that there's one particular neighborhood in Burbank that
just has blown up for decorations. It's got lines of
people all around the place.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
At Magnolia Park in is that far that's where we
used to live, okay, and that's where we got the
two hundred and eighty five kids that came by one night.
But yeah, Magnolia Park is west of Buena Vista, east
of Hollywood Way, south.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Magnolia and north of Verdugo.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
And we used to live there, and that's where a
lot of the guys old Hollywood used to be, you know,
and still are prop guys set decorators and they knock
it out.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Well, and you were before about how like tomorrow or
to whatever, you're going to be like knocking down all
of your.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Heart it's all coming down.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
How do you think those guys are with that? Do
you think, Oh my god, I'm just curious that they like,
oh they excited about tearing all of that down.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Well, that's it's got to take them four or five days,
you know, to put it. It's got to take them
a week to put it all up, and then another
you know, four or five days to pull it all down.
And I absolutely love decorating for Halloween. And we got
a lot of compliments from parents saying thank you for
not decorating your house in a really spooky, scary, evil way,
(04:34):
you know, because that does scare the hell out of
some kids. You know, we just made it fun and
they stop buying enjoying the stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Anyway.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
So I left here, I'm going to Fatburger last night,
and I'm driving four miles an hour and I didn't
get a single person honking at me. They all lined
up behind me. They all went four or five miles
an hour, and we all understood we're going to get
wherever we're going two or three minutes late, but we're
not going to kill any kids. And it was I
was very proud of all the in Burbank, in the
(05:01):
San Fernando Valley. Everybody was watching out for these kids. Everybody,
and there were kids everywhere in t Luca Lake. I
drove through to Luca Lake, Burbank, Magnolia Park. There were
thousands of kids out last night. Wow, that was fantastic. Yeah,
it really is great. It's a great night to get
out there, you know, with their parents. Their parents are
all taking photos and and some of my greatest memories
(05:25):
of hanging with my daughter when she was you know,
really young, were Halloween. You know, she loved Halloween, loved
going out, loved getting a candy go on there, you know,
out of their friends. And I missed that, you know,
I miss being the chaperone, having a couple of beers,
a couple of shots, and then with the flashlight walk
around the kids.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
I do miss that we had.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Our neighborhood's kind of it's going through that sort of
slow transition. Being in Claremont for one thing, so it's
a little bit older population in a lot of neighborhoods,
but there is that transition. We can we can see
it year by year. We probably had about twenty to
twenty five kids that came up to us last night,
which was probably double what we had like last year.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (06:01):
We've seen a slow increase as the transition from the
older people, that old the have all the houses in
the neighborhood transition. More families are starting to come into
that particular neighborhood. So it's interesting and very cool to
see that, you know, some people are still digging in
with the Halloween decorations and stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
If I had to do it all over again, I
would I would raise my daughter in the Inland Empire
or Claremont or you know, or you know, Pomooned somewhere
out east like that, because I think that's old school valley,
the valley, what the valley was in the seventies is
still at the Inland Empire is.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
There are a lot of great little pockets in Clarmont
specifically that are that give you that total feel, especially
as you get closer to the village area there.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yeah, much older houses. There are the houses one hundred
and fifty years old out there. Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I think raising a kid in Claremont is a home
walk off home run.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yeah, it's it's great, good little town.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
And not only can you put them through great schools,
but there's great cops there. The officers, officers are hands on. Yeah,
and you don't have to you know, you could choose
to stay and go to a great college right there
in Claremont.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Absolutely, and a lot of kids do that.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
But anyway, very proud of being a native Valleyite, born
and raised in the San Fernando Valley and to see
you guys and gals driving out there last night, Nobody honking,
everybody going four or five six miles an hour in
busy areas, Nobody you know, zipping around each other.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Very very proud of.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
The drivers in the San Fernando Valley and the rest
of southern California as well. You looked out for the
kids that you should do, and you did it and
you and you did it, and we didn't have anything reported.
We didn't have anybody remember that in Huntington Beach or
in Orange County where that poor young girl dressed up
I think as a witch or something or a cat
(07:53):
and she got, you know, run over and killed it.
And it's such a downer for the parents, it's such
a downer for the commun And thank you, thank you,
thank you for not doing that last night and watching
out for these kids.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
As much as you've talked about it.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
I specifically, when I came in today, I was kind
of dread and going through the wires and looking through
and I didn't see anything like it, and like you said,
very relieved to see nothing like that come across.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
It's great.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
I think we've turned a corner and we realized that
you know this, these kids are the future. It's not
just a song and we've got it. We've got to
do better and watch out for these kids. And last
night you did it. Very proud of the drivers in
Southern California. Last night you guys get a golden Star. Congratulations.
(08:36):
Hope to do it again next year. But Crozer, what
a busy month for KFI. Not only do we have
you know, the Dodgers, and we had you know, you know,
the weather. We had the hurt we covered the hurricanes
in Florida, we had the fires, and then we have
you know, you have the Dodgers, the Lakers, the Clippers,
(08:57):
the Rams, the Chargers, the AELs, you had you know,
not the Angels, but you had a lot of uh,
you know, professional sports going on. Then you had forget
a Young King's and then you had the Crazy Friday
where you know, there's eight or nine big events going
on the same at the same night, just a week ago, right,
and then this all is you know, leading up to
(09:19):
maybe we can take a breath. No, we have election,
an election on Tuesday, and and so it's going to
get crazy again and and we're going to cover it
all here on KFI. I think my shift is I
think four pm to eight PM. I have to look
at it again. But uh, and Moe Kelly's coming in early.
(09:41):
John Colevelt is staying late, so we're going to be
covering all the election news. Maybe we have a winner
by the time it's midnight. Probably not, but maybe, you know,
maybe we have a winner and we'll find out who
are the next President of the United States is. And
that's a big week coming up the time of the year. Yeah,
got to listen of KFI on election night. I got,
I got, I gotta listen to KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (10:09):
I have a friend who lives in the Magnolia Park area. Again,
it's in Burbank, Magnolia Hollywood Way, Buena Vista Perdugo of
that area, and he said it was absolutely crazy Magnolia
Park Halloween. We're a couple of horses, a couple of houses. Sorry,
we're a couple of houses down from the clown House,
(10:33):
the Haunted Circus. ABC News was there last weekend and
we had this guy keeps track like I do. We
had twenty five hundred and fifty tricker treaders, two thousand
five hundred and fifty trick or treats, dingta.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
That I believe that.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
I believe that it's become a really well known area
to bring the kids. That's great, man, Thank you, Belli, oh,
thank you, thank you, thank you. Instead of saying houses,
accudentally said, uh, we're a couple of horrors down I
meant houses, and Bellio instantly catches that.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
A couple of time. Wh's huh, you're great, You're great.
All right.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
God just sits in the other room and just modes me,
you know, just constantly banging on me. Uh, daylight savings.
We gotta be prepared, you know. Now it's electronic. A
lot of your your cell phone will change automatically. If
you have a smart clock in your house, that'll change
automatically as well. But there's still some old dumb clocks.
(11:45):
You gotta change yourself. You get an extra hour of sleep,
stephus this weekend, an extra hour of rest. What are
you gonna do with it? Chipoulta chipult Yeah, buddy, dig dog,
all right, let's find out. I don't know what we're
gonna find out, Probably nothing new.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
How about that?
Speaker 6 (12:08):
This morning the return of a timeless debate over whether
the US should good night. It's twice a year, clock changes.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Yes, we should, so long I hate it? Anyone else
ready for to be dark when we get.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Out of work.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Forget, it's gonna be dark when we get to work.
It's gonna be dark at five pm.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
What is it? Six twenty five?
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Now, yeah, it's gonna be This will be five to
twenty five. It's gonna be pitch dark, unbelievable, from.
Speaker 6 (12:34):
TikTok to late night. Even celebrities have wait in.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
So look outside if you're driving, don't you know. Don't
take your hands off the wheel or look too hard.
But this will be five This light that you see
outside right now, outside your car, your house, whatever, your apartment,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
You're on a bus.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
This will be five twenty five on Monday.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
How do you like that? What I like about it
is is it allows me to know that spring is
really here.
Speaker 6 (13:03):
In march oclocks.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
What what I like about it is it allows me
to know that spring is really here. I think somebody
has it backwards.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
In march oclock sprang forward, extending daylight later into the evening.
Now on Sunday, the clocks will fall back, allowing for
an earlier sunrise and an extra hour of sleep.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Ye night something.
Speaker 6 (13:27):
Swifties in Indianapolis will be celebrating after meeting Taylor Swift
at midnight for her final concerts in the US this weekend.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Oh I wonder if she'll do an extra hour, if
she has enough material to do an extra hour.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Oh my god, yess welcomes.
Speaker 6 (13:43):
Daylight saving time first clocked in during World War One
as an attempt to conserve energy during the warmer months,
but since then times have changed. One new survey show
is nearly two thirds of Americans went to do away
with the flip flopping, and some lawmakers.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Agree, sixty seven percent of the people want to do
away with this daylight savings.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
In the last six years, twenty states have enacted legislation
that would make daylight saving time permanent, arguing it would
reduce crime and boost physical activity with brighter evenings.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
But in order to.
Speaker 6 (14:17):
Take effect, Congress first has to pass the Sunshine Protection
Act reintroduced last year.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Oh my god, everything has to be so complicated.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
Senator Marco Rubio, who sponsored the bill, writing this week,
it's time to lock the clock and stop enduring the
ridiculous and antiquated practice of switching our clocks back and forth.
Speaker 7 (14:36):
I find a clear reason why we do this incredibly
stupid ritual here in the United States of sunset slept
four in the afternoon.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Though the country has tried it before in nineteen seventy four,
and reverse course within a year after a series of
traffic accidents. Without falling back, cities like Seattle and Detroit
wouldn't see the sunrise in January until nine am.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Fine, who cares?
Speaker 6 (14:59):
And so when the me time experts say, here's how
to prepare, Avoid caffeine in the afternoon, limit your screen time,
and practice calming activities before bed, like reading a book
or sipping on tea.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
No one's going to do that. Nobody limiting your screen time.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
You gotta limit your screen time because somebody said limit
your screen time on.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
Radio, avoid caffeine in the afternoon.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
That's hard to do.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
Limit your screen time.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Not going to do that.
Speaker 6 (15:28):
And practice calming activities before bed, like.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Like, what what's a calming activity.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
Like reading a book or sipping on tea? Goddy talking
to as the clock confusion ticks on.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
All right, you hear one thing that I did here
that I didn't realize was if we don't change at all,
then during the winter time, it's not going to hit
daylight until nine am.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Okay, so what I know, you and me sleep through that.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Well though, that that's up in Seattle and like Detroit,
the northern you know, part of this country. But they
picked that, they chose to live there, so they get screwed,
you know, tough.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Is that that's just in Seattle. Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Here, you know, in Seattle gets man, there's about a
ten hour difference between the shortest day and the longest
day up in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
When it comes to sunshine. We don't get that.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
We don't get the big swings down here. But man,
you know, when you're up in Seattle, it'll stay light.
You can see the horizon at ten thirty at night.
You know, the sun doesn't go down until nine forty five,
and then you know, and then it's you know.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
That that's different here because on July fourth, that's pretty
much the peak of how late it gets for sunlight. Right,
they're always hitting the fireworks at nine o'clock because it's
dark at that point.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Yeah, there's a major difference between the north part of
this country and the south part. But I think that's
why people live in the South, you know, that's why
you know, outside of you know, back east. But most
people like don't live up there, you know. And most
people like warm climates. You know, when they talk about
global warming, I welcome it. People like warm weather. They
(17:08):
move to warm weather. No one moves to the cold.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I want more global warming. I want more and more
and more and more and more. I know, minority opinion.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
I get it. I get it.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Maybe you don't know this, but when you go to
the game, there are people selling beer and shots right
down the street, right in front of the cops, and
the cops don't do anything.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I think it's great.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
You can pull up there, grab a beer, a tall one,
or shot of vodka whiskey and drink it right there
and the cops don't do anything. It's great. It's like
being in Las Vegas. This is guy that's set up
a bar right on the corner there and Corbyn Carson
talked to him. This is during the Dodger parade. A
guy literally set up a bar on a corner and
(17:58):
was selling shots and beers right on the street. I
think that is a plus for Los Angeles.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Man, it's GM money man. You know what I'm saying,
the best that ever did it and hope I can
get away with it.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Man.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
While doctor blue jerseys and banners lined the streets, my
man had a full bar set up right in the
corner of Fifth and Grant.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
And I appreciate this, man, I love La. What are
you offering right here? Yeah, it's happy hour right now
at eight thirty in the morning.
Speaker 8 (18:22):
What are the selections Conya, tequila, fuka and whiskey.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, top shelf with everything. Yay, it's all for ten
to twenty bucks.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Top shelf, come on down. And yes there was a line.
And no, I did not partake in downtown La Corbin
Carson Camp.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
I knew I did not partake. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
I would think it would be he would be. I
would hold him in higher regard if he did.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
I did not partake.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah, next time, I have a shot. All right? In Japan?
Was the Dodgers World Series a big deal?
Speaker 7 (18:58):
Let's find out the World Series title belongs to Los Angeles, right,
but the victory is sweet. Half a world away In baseball,
obsessed Japan viewership hit record levels at one point fifteen
point nine million people watching here more.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Than in the US.
Speaker 7 (19:17):
That surge has everything to do with sho Hao Tani?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Is that right? Is that right? I didn't even put
that together.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
That surge has everything to do with with with what
with sho Hao Tani?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Okay, now it makes sense. The Dodger superstar, who.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
With teammate Yoshinobu Yamamoto, are national icons here. They will
even at my age. I'm really odd by him, he says.
Nowhere has baseball fever burn brighter than in the rural
town where Otani grew up, where it all started for
sho Hao Tani was here on this field, practicing at
least five hours a day every day to hone his
(19:55):
skills for young players on his old high school team
and inspiration. Oh Tani is a celestial figure, he says.
There's promise here, but no one like him, and so
he's honored at every turn, including a super fans gallery
of memorabilia at a hair salon. How many pieces do
you have here about just such three thousand? He says,
(20:20):
there's more in storage.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
You know.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
I was at again at Dodger STADIU today and there's
a there's a souvenir stand that's on the club level,
and you can buy jerseys that have been used in
a Major League game. You can buy Freddie Freeman's jersey
or Clayton Kershaw's jersey, and the price difference between all
the Dodgers, and show Heyo Tani's jersey that he wore
(20:45):
in an actual game.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Off the charts.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Off the charts, you know, a lot of them are
two three, four hundred dollars, three hundred dollars, four hundred dollars,
and then you see show Heyo Tani twelve hundred dollars.
That guy brings in more money than I've seen the
athlete in the history of sports. And I and also
you'll notice that if you if you go to Japan,
they sell as much or more merchandise in Japan than
(21:11):
they do here.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
In Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
I mean, this guy is a world it's it's it's
almost his own business. It's incredible. I'd love to go
there and see that. I'd love to see him walk
around the streets of Japan, see what that think.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
I saw that today.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
He's the first major League baseball player ever to be
to be unanimously selected MVP twice.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Really wow, unreal.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
All week people gathered to watch the games at community centers.
They win, such a huge moment of pride for Japan,
newspapers printing extra editions while the team was soon back
at the same field that led their hometown hero to
the top.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
You know, there's they should do that, you know right now,
it's a it's anonymous. The voting for MVP is anonymous.
Nobody knows who voted, how or how they voted. And
the last time I think it was two I think
it was two or three years ago, there were I
don't know, two hundred and ninety five votes for shoe
Otani and one person didn't vote for him. They should,
(22:15):
they should, We should identify who that person is, who
the hell didn't vote for him? Especially this year, the
in a in a rehab year, he's the first guy
and the only guy in baseball to reach fifty to fifty,
fifty home runs and fifty stolen bases in a rehab year,
in a year of the huge he should have been
on the bench, and he got fifty to fifty. That's incredible,
(22:37):
and he's gonna be pitching for the Dodgers next thieme ooh,
the Dodgers are going to be even better next year.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
It Mookie saying he needs to fill up his hand
with rings.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Yeah, he's got three now is three three? The first
active player to have three World Series rings?
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Right now? Oh, that's great, like going on right now,
he's the only one.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Let's get him two more, two more? All right, we've
got well, we'll wrap it up here, wring it back.
Big week, big month, and it's not over. We have
election day on Tuesday. So Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night,
Monday night, four more sleeps and then boom, we're all voting.
A lot of you already voted, a lot of you're
(23:15):
going to vote, wait on Tuesday to vote, and we're
gonna have the next president of the United States. Hopefully
we'll be decided sometime next week and this will all
be over. All the ads, all the anger, all the craziness,
all the lies going back and forth, all the speculation,
all of that will be over by next week so
(23:37):
we can all go back to our life.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Maya from
KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
A month October was unbelievable here at KFI, a lot
of different stories following the Dodgers the whole way, through
the fires, the storms in Florida, the politics. It was
a really, really busy month and it's going to get
busier on election Day, which is Tuesday, the next Tuesday,
(24:10):
five days away. So get out there and vote and
make your voice heard. But if you don't vote, that's
cool too. Do what you want. All right, let's talk
about Freddy Freeman, his wife Chelsea I believe it is
her name, and they had a really horrible year. They
(24:31):
had a kid who was very, very sick. Freddie Freeman
had to take some time off to be with his family,
and everything stops. When you have a kid who is
not well, everything comes to an end and you stop
doing whatever you're doing, and you get that kid better,
(24:52):
You get that kid back.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Up on its feet.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
And so let's find out what Chelsea Freeman had to
go through the of Freddy Freeman. It was a really
challenging year, probably the most. It had to be the
most challenging year of her life.
Speaker 9 (25:09):
The craziest thing is that he's hurt right now. So
he's playing with a sprained ankle and he had to
fractured finger and all these other things. So the fact
that he's played as incredibly well as he is is
just like an absolute miracle. He's such a perfectionist, so
like he doesn't think he performed as well as he
would have liked to, So for him to finally go
out on this note with all the things that he's doing,
(25:31):
just absolutely incredible.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
All the kids were.
Speaker 9 (25:34):
Watching, We huddled around the TV thinking like we're about
to lose, so like hoping not like two outs the
tenth inning and we're down and Kredie hit that ball.
They all just started going nuts and like jumping up
and down like it was just the coolest moment ever.
It's just crazy, Like a few months ago, we were
just at our ultimate like low place, seeing your child
going through all that. I had never heard of Giam
(25:57):
for it when it happened to him, and I know
a lot of people haven't heard him Yambre, So it
also wanted to kind of just take our platform and
use it to raise awareness for Gyambre. It's a terrible
illness that earlier you could detect it, the better your outcomes.
But he's doing much better as far as his giambre
is still doing PTE, but I mean his improvements have
been like absolutely mind blowing. Like all our pets or neurologies,
(26:19):
our doctors are all like just thrilled for how well he's.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Been doing pt It's physical therapy. This kid had to
learn how to do everything again, learn how to talk, walk, eat, sleep, communicate, write,
brush his hair, brush his teeth.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
He had to learn everything all over again.
Speaker 9 (26:39):
Just thrilled for how well he's been doing. The Dodgers
from the beginning, they're so supportive to us and our
family and to Max, like every wife and that organization
reached out to me what they did for like the
Max Strong shirts. And that's why I think it's so
cool that Freddy finally gets to have his shining moment
and give back to them and the fans and the
Dodgers in general, because they are just absolutely credible with us.
(27:02):
Freddie takes it. He's the simplest guy. He has his
little routine. He likes getting his Starbucks in the morning,
no matter where he is, he has his exact same coffee,
his same breakfast.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
He just likes to take like each.
Speaker 9 (27:13):
Day by day to win the World Series and to
do it with the Dodgers. We've done it once before,
but Freddy's from California to so to do it in
front of his family, this fan base, and this organization
that's been there for us since support of this all year,
just absolutely incredible.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
To do it with the Dodgers and get the ring.
That is great. All right.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
This segment is being brought to you by Advanced Tair
one Day Treatment, life changing results. Make your appointment today
at Advanced Tair dot com. Don't forget this weekend to
change your clocks that will be on Saturday night into
Sunday morning. You refers set your clocks back one hour
(27:53):
one hour. You can extra hour sleep this weekend.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
All right.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
We like to do the last segment for Steph Foosh
every single week. Everybody knows that by now and Stephoush
a major major Chipotle fan major.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Would you consider yourself a ten out of ten? I would? Yeah, okay,
yeah for sure. All right.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Well, portion control is something that they're having problems with.
Do you notice that from one one Chipotle to another
there's different portions for the same meal.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
The amounthy serve. Yes, Nah, you don't. I don't, Well,
then you're not paying attention, but young man.
Speaker 10 (28:34):
Long after customers have complained, Chipotle finally admits it has
a portion size problem, which can vary depending on location.
Now the company is promising changes. Earlier this year, an
analyst from Wells Fargo weighed seventy five of Chipotle's burrito
bulls several New York City locations. The end result was
varying portion sizes. The company says it will reevaluate its
(28:54):
overall process.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
What's going on all right.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Bo Kelly joins us, how you, Bob, What a dave
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
What a month, What a week? What a year?
Speaker 3 (29:02):
It is so great to be a Dodgers fan right about,
isn't it?
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Isn't it great? It feels really really good?
Speaker 3 (29:09):
And you know what, also, first of all, it's great
anytime we wipe out the Padres, that in and of
itself would have been great, but to also be both
New York teams in the same year is unheard of.
Speaker 8 (29:20):
The only way it could have been any better is
if we were the team responsible for eliminating the San
Francisco Giants. Eliminating the Padres with both New York teams,
I don't know if it can be much better. Yeah,
because being a sports fan, it's not just rooting for
your team, it's rooting against other teams. But I mean,
(29:40):
I don't like New York as a city, so to
beat both of their teams, that means we own new York.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I mean to walk around you know, New York right
now with the Dodgers, had On has just got to
be the best.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
It's probably dangerous, but it is the best.
Speaker 8 (29:54):
Yeah, it is really what's on the big show night
bub what we have to talk about. Obviously you talked
about it little bit, but I'm gonna talk about it
even more. How it's gonna be damn dark Monday. It's
gonna be dark when we wake up. It's gonna be
dark when we go to work. It's gonna be dark
when we leave work.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Yeah, it's gonna be And I don't know why we
keep doing this, you know, it doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 8 (30:14):
It's unnecessary. Why don't we just go ahead and revolt
and refuse to change our clocks. In fact, I'm gonna
call Robin and say, damn it, I'm going to show
up at seven pm Pacific daylight time on Monday and.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Start my show that is beautiful. I got to listen
to the show last night because we were preempted by
the Dodgers. That was great last night. We had a
good time. The entire show was terrific. And you and
and your entire crew, especially Tuala. You guys come from
a music background and you know how to put on events.
Speaker 8 (30:49):
Well, we were, but I said, we don't how to
put on events. We were put in situations where we
had to put on it, you know, So do this,
get it done or be fired?
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Right.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
I was talking to Tuala and I had a couple
of friends who are in the music business and when
they put together an event, it's almost like a lawyer
defending a mobster. You wait and you see what the
reaction is going to be. And sometimes the reaction is
they fire you in the middle of it. Yeah, just gone.
Speaker 8 (31:16):
It's just one of those things where we approach our events,
I think with a different esthetic than others. It's not
going to be showing, you know, we're really grinding every
single day. It shows buddy, great. I hope that's an
annual event.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
We're going to see to it.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Yeah, and hopefully the Dodgers don't preempt you.
Speaker 8 (31:33):
No, Well, if the Dodgers should preempt us annually because
you're in the World Series, then that'll be okay.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
But what are the odds of this, mo that you
and I started the station both huge Dodger fans from birth,
and the very first time they win the World Series
in Los Angeles it is on my show and your show.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
What are the odds of that?
Speaker 8 (31:54):
You know, astronomical? But I'll take it because in twenty
twenty it was the pandemic.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
We'll talk about that. It was way too It wasn't
the same.
Speaker 8 (32:01):
Yes, I was happy that they won, but it didn't
have the same impact.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
On the city obviously. Yeah, And I got a couple
of texts here. I don't think we can talk about
it enough. I think people are still celebrating. They're going
to celebrate all weekend long. And I'm glad they did
the parade before because by Monday, people will be into
the election, people will be beyond it, and it wouldn't
have the same impact.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Just think if they would not.
Speaker 8 (32:24):
Have come back in that game five, Game six would
be starting like right about it now, would be now
exactly beyond Yeah, and then we'd been nervous, and then
tomorrow game seven, we'd have been in a hospital. Ben,
What in how much had any changed everything?
Speaker 1 (32:39):
One? Any?
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Exactly right, buddy, Have a nice weekend, great month. See
on Monday and you and I are hosting election covers.
Yes Tuesday, Yes, looking forward to it.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you

It's k IF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am sixty and you're listening to the Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
Last night was Halloween and we got I don't think
any reports of kids getting hit by car. I remember that, Crochet.
Did you see anything on the news?
Speaker 4 (00:16):
Nothing in our nothing that I've seen, nothing on any
of the wires.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
That's great.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
So thank you, thank you, thank you to everybody who's listening,
everybody who's driving around southern California. I drove last night
for some reason. I got a I got crazy with
fat Burger at Marongo. I had a fat Burger on Saturday.
Then I had one to go on Sunday, and I
(00:43):
get hooked. I have I'm not well mentally, and when
I hook into a fast food place, I'm like Steph
fush Man, I hone in on it. I zero in
on it, and I eat it until I can't eat
it anymore.
Speaker 4 (00:57):
I heard you mention the other day about fat Burger
being in there. I didn't even realize that because I
just went to the default of on that that night,
especially after the party, which to the Wallburger that seems
to be like our sort of oh yeah, yeaheah and
I'm telling you, they do a damn good burger themselves,
but Yeahnburger, I would definitely have gone for.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
I got a Fat Burger, chili, cheese, lettuce, and ketchup
exact exactly what I wanted with the skinny fries, and
so I had two meals at Marongo with Fat Burger.
And then last night I realized, oh wait, there's another
one here on Burbank, and I think Kwanga, I s
something to go over there. So I left work here,
(01:34):
droll over to Fat Burger, and I drive like four
miles an hour on Halloween. I'm looking around. I'm looking around.
My head's on a swivel, and I'm stopping. Every time
I see a kid, I stop and I give him
twenty feet. I don't I'm not plowing at any kids.
I'm not doing that. I want to make sure these
kids get home and they enjoy their lives. It was
Jin at home, yeah, giving out candy all night long.
(01:56):
A couple of hundred kids stop by. Wow, damn, a
couple of hundred kids. She had a bowl and a
huge bowl of candy, and it was probably three or
four hundred pieces, and it was nearly.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
Gone by the end. Of the night. Wow. And and
she loves it, you know.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
She left the one thing that she said when I
got home, and I thought it was really it was
really cute. There was a there was a girl, she
must have been about seven or eight years old, knocked
on the door. She was with her parents, and she
was alone. She was, you know, either an only child
or or you know. The kids you know took her
and you know, went trigger treating with her alone. And
(02:34):
Jen opens the door and holds the ball out and says,
take anything you like. And she looks down and she
takes a piece of candy, and she looks up and
she goes and the little kid, who was only like
again seven or eight years old, looks at my wife
and goes, oh my god, you're so beautiful.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
How about that? Wow?
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Yeah, And and she goes, yeah, she got the whole
bowl and a check for like five hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
It was weird.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
But but either that kid was raised properly, which I
think she was, or told to say that. I don't know,
but but that was really a cool deal. We had
a ton of kids come by, and every single one
of them, without exception, well mannered.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Are you familiar with the It was a story earlier
this week that there's one particular neighborhood in Burbank that
just has blown up for decorations. It's got lines of
people all around the place.
Speaker 3 (03:32):
At Magnolia Park in is that far that's where we
used to live, okay, and that's where we got the
two hundred and eighty five kids that came by one night.
But yeah, Magnolia Park is west of Buena Vista, east
of Hollywood Way, south.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Magnolia and north of Verdugo.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
And we used to live there, and that's where a
lot of the guys old Hollywood used to be, you know,
and still are prop guys set decorators and they knock
it out.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Well, and you were before about how like tomorrow or
to whatever, you're going to be like knocking down all
of your.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Heart it's all coming down.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
How do you think those guys are with that? Do
you think, Oh my god, I'm just curious that they like,
oh they excited about tearing all of that down.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Well, that's it's got to take them four or five days,
you know, to put it. It's got to take them
a week to put it all up, and then another
you know, four or five days to pull it all down.
And I absolutely love decorating for Halloween. And we got
a lot of compliments from parents saying thank you for
not decorating your house in a really spooky, scary, evil way,
(04:34):
you know, because that does scare the hell out of
some kids. You know, we just made it fun and
they stop buying enjoying the stuff.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Anyway.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
So I left here, I'm going to Fatburger last night,
and I'm driving four miles an hour and I didn't
get a single person honking at me. They all lined
up behind me. They all went four or five miles
an hour, and we all understood we're going to get
wherever we're going two or three minutes late, but we're
not going to kill any kids. And it was I
was very proud of all the in Burbank, in the
(05:01):
San Fernando Valley. Everybody was watching out for these kids. Everybody,
and there were kids everywhere in t Luca Lake. I
drove through to Luca Lake, Burbank, Magnolia Park. There were
thousands of kids out last night. Wow, that was fantastic. Yeah,
it really is great. It's a great night to get
out there, you know, with their parents. Their parents are
all taking photos and and some of my greatest memories
(05:25):
of hanging with my daughter when she was you know,
really young, were Halloween. You know, she loved Halloween, loved
going out, loved getting a candy go on there, you know,
out of their friends. And I missed that, you know,
I miss being the chaperone, having a couple of beers,
a couple of shots, and then with the flashlight walk
around the kids.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
I do miss that we had.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Our neighborhood's kind of it's going through that sort of
slow transition. Being in Claremont for one thing, so it's
a little bit older population in a lot of neighborhoods,
but there is that transition. We can we can see
it year by year. We probably had about twenty to
twenty five kids that came up to us last night,
which was probably double what we had like last year.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (06:01):
We've seen a slow increase as the transition from the
older people, that old the have all the houses in
the neighborhood transition. More families are starting to come into
that particular neighborhood. So it's interesting and very cool to
see that, you know, some people are still digging in
with the Halloween decorations and stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:16):
If I had to do it all over again, I
would I would raise my daughter in the Inland Empire
or Claremont or you know, or you know, Pomooned somewhere
out east like that, because I think that's old school valley,
the valley, what the valley was in the seventies is
still at the Inland Empire is.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
There are a lot of great little pockets in Clarmont
specifically that are that give you that total feel, especially
as you get closer to the village area there.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yeah, much older houses. There are the houses one hundred
and fifty years old out there. Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
I think raising a kid in Claremont is a home
walk off home run.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yeah, it's it's great, good little town.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
And not only can you put them through great schools,
but there's great cops there. The officers, officers are hands on. Yeah,
and you don't have to you know, you could choose
to stay and go to a great college right there
in Claremont.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Absolutely, and a lot of kids do that.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
But anyway, very proud of being a native Valleyite, born
and raised in the San Fernando Valley and to see
you guys and gals driving out there last night, Nobody honking,
everybody going four or five six miles an hour in
busy areas, Nobody you know, zipping around each other.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Very very proud of.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
The drivers in the San Fernando Valley and the rest
of southern California as well. You looked out for the
kids that you should do, and you did it and
you and you did it, and we didn't have anything reported.
We didn't have anybody remember that in Huntington Beach or
in Orange County where that poor young girl dressed up
I think as a witch or something or a cat
(07:53):
and she got, you know, run over and killed it.
And it's such a downer for the parents, it's such
a downer for the commun And thank you, thank you,
thank you for not doing that last night and watching
out for these kids.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
As much as you've talked about it.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
I specifically, when I came in today, I was kind
of dread and going through the wires and looking through
and I didn't see anything like it, and like you said,
very relieved to see nothing like that come across.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
It's great.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
I think we've turned a corner and we realized that
you know this, these kids are the future. It's not
just a song and we've got it. We've got to
do better and watch out for these kids. And last
night you did it. Very proud of the drivers in
Southern California. Last night you guys get a golden Star. Congratulations.
(08:36):
Hope to do it again next year. But Crozer, what
a busy month for KFI. Not only do we have
you know, the Dodgers, and we had you know, you know,
the weather. We had the hurt we covered the hurricanes
in Florida, we had the fires, and then we have

it's in Burbank, Magnolia Hollywood Way, Buena Vista Perdugo of
that area, and he said it was absolutely crazy Magnolia
Park Halloween. We're a couple of horses, a couple of houses. Sorry,

five hundred and fifty trick or treats, dingta.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Oh my god, yess welcomes.
Speaker 6 (13:43):
Daylight saving time first clocked in during World War One
as an attempt to conserve energy during the warmer months,
but since then times have changed. One new survey show
is nearly two thirds of Americans went to do away
with the flip flopping, and some lawmakers.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Agree, sixty seven percent of the people want to do
away with this daylight savings.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
In the last six years, twenty states have enacted legislation
that would make daylight saving time permanent, arguing it would
reduce crime and boost physical activity with brighter evenings.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
But in order to.
Speaker 6 (14:17):
Take effect, Congress first has to pass the Sunshine Protection
Act reintroduced last year.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Oh my god, everything has to be so complicated.
Speaker 6 (14:25):
Senator Marco Rubio, who sponsored the bill, writing this week,
it's time to lock the clock and stop enduring the
ridiculous and antiquated practice of switching our clocks back and forth.
Speaker 7 (14:36):
I find a clear reason why we do this incredibly
stupid ritual here in the United States of sunset slept
four in the afternoon.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Though the country has tried it before in nineteen seventy four,
and reverse course within a year after a series of
traffic accidents. Without falling back, cities like Seattle and Detroit
wouldn't see the sunrise in January until nine am.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Fine, who cares?
Speaker 6 (14:59):
And so when the me time experts say, here's how
to prepare, Avoid caffeine in the afternoon, limit your screen time,
and practice calming activities before bed, like reading a book
or sipping on tea.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
No one's going to do that. Nobody limiting your screen time.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
You gotta limit your screen time because somebody said limit
your screen time on.
Speaker 6 (15:20):
Radio, avoid caffeine in the afternoon.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
That's hard to do.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
Limit your screen time.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Not going to do that.
Speaker 6 (15:28):
And practice calming activities before bed, like.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Like, what what's a calming activity.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
Like reading a book or sipping on tea? Goddy talking
to as the clock confusion ticks on.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
All right, you hear one thing that I did here
that I didn't realize was if we don't change at all,
then during the winter time, it's not going to hit
daylight until nine am.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Okay, so what I know, you and me sleep through that.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Well though, that that's up in Seattle and like Detroit,
the northern you know, part of this country. But they
picked that, they chose to live there, so they get screwed,
you know, tough.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Is that that's just in Seattle. Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Here, you know, in Seattle gets man, there's about a
ten hour difference between the shortest day and the longest
day up in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
When it comes to sunshine. We don't get that.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
We don't get the big swings down here. But man,
you know, when you're up in Seattle, it'll stay light.
You can see the horizon at ten thirty at night.
You know, the sun doesn't go down until nine forty five,
and then you know, and then it's you know.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
That that's different here because on July fourth, that's pretty
much the peak of how late it gets for sunlight. Right,
they're always hitting the fireworks at nine o'clock because it's
dark at that point.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Yeah, there's a major difference between the north part of
this country and the south part. But I think that's
why people live in the South, you know, that's why
you know, outside of you know, back east. But most
people like don't live up there, you know. And most
people like warm climates. You know, when they talk about
global warming, I welcome it. People like warm weather. They
(17:08):
move to warm weather. No one moves to the cold.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
I want more global warming. I want more and more
and more and more and more. I know, minority opinion.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
I get it. I get it.
Speaker 5 (17:19):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Maybe you don't know this, but when you go to
the game, there are people selling beer and shots right
down the street, right in front of the cops, and
the cops don't do anything.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I think it's great.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
You can pull up there, grab a beer, a tall one,
or shot of vodka whiskey and drink it right there
and the cops don't do anything. It's great. It's like
being in Las Vegas. This is guy that's set up
a bar right on the corner there and Corbyn Carson
talked to him. This is during the Dodger parade. A
guy literally set up a bar on a corner and
(17:58):
was selling shots and beers right on the street. I
think that is a plus for Los Angeles.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
Man, it's GM money man. You know what I'm saying,
the best that ever did it and hope I can
get away with it.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Man.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
While doctor blue jerseys and banners lined the streets, my
man had a full bar set up right in the
corner of Fifth and Grant.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
And I appreciate this, man, I love La. What are
you offering right here? Yeah, it's happy hour right now
at eight thirty in the morning.
Speaker 8 (18:22):
What are the selections Conya, tequila, fuka and whiskey.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Yeah, top shelf with everything. Yay, it's all for ten
to twenty bucks.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Top shelf, come on down. And yes there was a line.
And no, I did not partake in downtown La Corbin
Carson Camp.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
I knew I did not partake. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
I would think it would be he would be. I
would hold him in higher regard if he did.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
I did not partake.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah, next time, I have a shot. All right? In Japan?
Was the Dodgers World Series a big deal?
Speaker 7 (18:58):
Let's find out the World Series title belongs to Los Angeles, right,
but the victory is sweet. Half a world away In baseball,
obsessed Japan viewership hit record levels at one point fifteen
point nine million people watching here more.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Than in the US.
Speaker 7 (19:17):
That surge has everything to do with sho Hao Tani?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Is that right? Is that right? I didn't even put
that together.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
That surge has everything to do with with with what
with sho Hao Tani?
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Okay, now it makes sense. The Dodger superstar, who.
Speaker 7 (19:32):
With teammate Yoshinobu Yamamoto, are national icons here. They will
even at my age. I'm really odd by him, he says.
Nowhere has baseball fever burn brighter than in the rural
town where Otani grew up, where it all started for
sho Hao Tani was here on this field, practicing at
least five hours a day every day to hone his
(19:55):
skills for young players on his old high school team
and inspiration. Oh Tani is a celestial figure, he says.
There's promise here, but no one like him, and so
he's honored at every turn, including a super fans gallery
of memorabilia at a hair salon. How many pieces do
you have here about just such three thousand? He says,
(20:20):
there's more in storage.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
You know.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
I was at again at Dodger STADIU today and there's
a there's a souvenir stand that's on the club level,
and you can buy jerseys that have been used in
a Major League game. You can buy Freddie Freeman's jersey
or Clayton Kershaw's jersey, and the price difference between all
the Dodgers, and show Heyo Tani's jersey that he wore
(20:45):
in an actual game.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Off the charts.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Off the charts, you know, a lot of them are
two three, four hundred dollars, three hundred dollars, four hundred dollars,
and then you see show Heyo Tani twelve hundred dollars.
That guy brings in more money than I've seen the
athlete in the history of sports. And I and also
you'll notice that if you if you go to Japan,
they sell as much or more merchandise in Japan than
(21:11):
they do here.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
In Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
I mean, this guy is a world it's it's it's
almost his own business. It's incredible. I'd love to go
there and see that. I'd love to see him walk
around the streets of Japan, see what that think.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
I saw that today.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
He's the first major League baseball player ever to be
to be unanimously selected MVP twice.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Really wow, unreal.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
All week people gathered to watch the games at community centers.
They win, such a huge moment of pride for Japan,
newspapers printing extra editions while the team was soon back
at the same field that led their hometown hero to
the top.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
You know, there's they should do that, you know right now,
it's a it's anonymous. The voting for MVP is anonymous.
Nobody knows who voted, how or how they voted. And
the last time I think it was two I think
it was two or three years ago, there were I
don't know, two hundred and ninety five votes for shoe
Otani and one person didn't vote for him. They should,
(22:15):
they should, We should identify who that person is, who
the hell didn't vote for him? Especially this year, the
in a in a rehab year, he's the first guy
and the only guy in baseball to reach fifty to fifty,
fifty home runs and fifty stolen bases in a rehab year,
in a year of the huge he should have been
on the bench, and he got fifty to fifty. That's incredible,
(22:37):
and he's gonna be pitching for the Dodgers next thieme ooh,
the Dodgers are going to be even better next year.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
It Mookie saying he needs to fill up his hand
with rings.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Yeah, he's got three now is three three? The first
active player to have three World Series rings?
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Right now? Oh, that's great, like going on right now,
he's the only one.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Let's get him two more, two more? All right, we've
got well, we'll wrap it up here, wring it back.
Big week, big month, and it's not over. We have
election day on Tuesday. So Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night,
Monday night, four more sleeps and then boom, we're all voting.
A lot of you already voted, a lot of you're
(23:15):
going to vote, wait on Tuesday to vote, and we're
gonna have the next president of the United States. Hopefully
we'll be decided sometime next week and this will all
be over. All the ads, all the anger, all the craziness,
all the lies going back and forth, all the speculation,
all of that will be over by next week so
(23:37):
we can all go back to our life.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Maya from
KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
A month October was unbelievable here at KFI, a lot
of different stories following the Dodgers the whole way, through
the fires, the storms in Florida, the politics. It was
a really, really busy month and it's going to get
busier on election Day, which is Tuesday, the next Tuesday,
(24:10):
five days away. So get out there and vote and
make your voice heard. But if you don't vote, that's
cool too. Do what you want. All right, let's talk
about Freddy Freeman, his wife Chelsea I believe it is
her name, and they had a really horrible year. They
(24:31):
had a kid who was very, very sick. Freddie Freeman
had to take some time off to be with his family,
and everything stops. When you have a kid who is
not well, everything comes to an end and you stop
doing whatever you're doing, and you get that kid better,
(24:52):
You get that kid back.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Up on its feet.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
And so let's find out what Chelsea Freeman had to
go through the of Freddy Freeman. It was a really
challenging year, probably the most. It had to be the
most challenging year of her life.
Speaker 9 (25:09):
The craziest thing is that he's hurt right now. So
he's playing with a sprained ankle and he had to
fractured finger and all these other things. So the fact
that he's played as incredibly well as he is is
just like an absolute miracle. He's such a perfectionist, so
like he doesn't think he performed as well as he
would have liked to, So for him to finally go
out on this note with all the things that he's doing,
(25:31):
just absolutely incredible.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
All the kids were.
Speaker 9 (25:34):
Watching, We huddled around the TV thinking like we're about
to lose, so like hoping not like two outs the
tenth inning and we're down and Kredie hit that ball.
They all just started going nuts and like jumping up
and down like it was just the coolest moment ever.
It's just crazy, Like a few months ago, we were
just at our ultimate like low place, seeing your child
going through all that. I had never heard of Giam
(25:57):
for it when it happened to him, and I know
a lot of people haven't heard him Yambre, So it
also wanted to kind of just take our platform and
use it to raise awareness for Gyambre. It's a terrible
illness that earlier you could detect it, the better your outcomes.
But he's doing much better as far as his giambre
is still doing PTE, but I mean his improvements have
been like absolutely mind blowing. Like all our pets or neurologies,
(26:19):
our doctors are all like just thrilled for how well he's.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
Been doing pt It's physical therapy. This kid had to
learn how to do everything again, learn how to talk, walk, eat, sleep, communicate, write,
brush his hair, brush his teeth.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
He had to learn everything all over again.
Speaker 9 (26:39):
Just thrilled for how well he's been doing. The Dodgers
from the beginning, they're so supportive to us and our
family and to Max, like every wife and that organization
reached out to me what they did for like the
Max Strong shirts. And that's why I think it's so
cool that Freddy finally gets to have his shining moment
and give back to them and the fans and the
Dodgers in general, because they are just absolutely credible with us.
(27:02):
Freddie takes it. He's the simplest guy. He has his
little routine. He likes getting his Starbucks in the morning,
no matter where he is, he has his exact same coffee,
his same breakfast.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
He just likes to take like each.
Speaker 9 (27:13):
Day by day to win the World Series and to
do it with the Dodgers. We've done it once before,
but Freddy's from California to so to do it in
front of his family, this fan base, and this organization
that's been there for us since support of this all year,
just absolutely incredible.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
To do it with the Dodgers and get the ring.
That is great. All right.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
This segment is being brought to you by Advanced Tair
one Day Treatment, life changing results. Make your appointment today
at Advanced Tair dot com. Don't forget this weekend to

Sunday morning. You refers set your clocks back one hour
(27:53):
one hour. You can extra hour sleep this weekend.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
All right.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
We like to do the last segment for Steph Foosh
every single week. Everybody knows that by now and Stephoush
a major major Chipotle fan major.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Would you consider yourself a ten out of ten? I would? Yeah, okay,
yeah for sure. All right.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Well, portion control is something that they're having problems with.
Do you notice that from one one Chipotle to another
there's different portions for the same meal.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
The amounthy serve. Yes, Nah, you don't. I don't, Well,
then you're not paying attention, but young man.
Speaker 10 (28:34):
Long after customers have complained, Chipotle finally admits it has
a portion size problem, which can vary depending on location.
Now the company is promising changes. Earlier this year, an
analyst from Wells Fargo weighed seventy five of Chipotle's burrito
bulls several New York City locations. The end result was
varying portion sizes. The company says it will reevaluate its
(28:54):
overall process.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
What's going on all right.
Speaker 3 (28:57):
Bo Kelly joins us, how you, Bob, What a dave
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
What a month, What a week? What a year?
Speaker 3 (29:02):
It is so great to be a Dodgers fan right about,
isn't it?
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Isn't it great? It feels really really good?
Speaker 3 (29:09):
And you know what, also, first of all, it's great
anytime we wipe out the Padres, that in and of
itself would have been great, but to also be both
New York teams in the same year is unheard of.
Speaker 8 (29:20):
The only way it could have been any better is
if we were the team responsible for eliminating the San
Francisco Giants. Eliminating the Padres with both New York teams,
I don't know if it can be much better. Yeah,
because being a sports fan, it's not just rooting for
your team, it's rooting against other teams. But I mean,
(29:40):
I don't like New York as a city, so to
beat both of their teams, that means we own new York.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
I mean to walk around you know, New York right
now with the Dodgers, had On has just got to
be the best.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
It's probably dangerous, but it is the best.
Speaker 8 (29:54):
Yeah, it is really what's on the big show night
bub what we have to talk about. Obviously you talked
about it little bit, but I'm gonna talk about it
even more. How it's gonna be damn dark Monday. It's
gonna be dark when we wake up. It's gonna be
dark when we go to work. It's gonna be dark
when we leave work.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Yeah, it's gonna be And I don't know why we
keep doing this, you know, it doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 8 (30:14):
It's unnecessary. Why don't we just go ahead and revolt
and refuse to change our clocks. In fact, I'm gonna
call Robin and say, damn it, I'm going to show
up at seven pm Pacific daylight time on Monday and.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Start my show that is beautiful. I got to listen
to the show last night because we were preempted by
the Dodgers. That was great last night. We had a
good time. The entire show was terrific. And you and
and your entire crew, especially Tuala. You guys come from
a music background and you know how to put on events.
Speaker 8 (30:49):
Well, we were, but I said, we don't how to
put on events. We were put in situations where we
had to put on it, you know, So do this,
get it done or be fired?
Speaker 1 (30:58):
Right.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
I was talking to Tuala and I had a couple
of friends who are in the music business and when
they put together an event, it's almost like a lawyer
defending a mobster. You wait and you see what the
reaction is going to be. And sometimes the reaction is
they fire you in the middle of it. Yeah, just gone.
Speaker 8 (31:16):
It's just one of those things where we approach our events,
I think with a different esthetic than others. It's not
going to be showing, you know, we're really grinding every
single day. It shows buddy, great. I hope that's an
annual event.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
We're going to see to it.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
Yeah, and hopefully the Dodgers don't preempt you.
Speaker 8 (31:33):
No, Well, if the Dodgers should preempt us annually because
you're in the World Series, then that'll be okay.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
But what are the odds of this, mo that you
and I started the station both huge Dodger fans from birth,
and the very first time they win the World Series
in Los Angeles it is on my show and your show.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
What are the odds of that?
Speaker 8 (31:54):
You know, astronomical? But I'll take it because in twenty
twenty it was the pandemic.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
We'll talk about that. It was way too It wasn't
the same.
Speaker 8 (32:01):
Yes, I was happy that they won, but it didn't
have the same impact.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
On the city obviously. Yeah, And I got a couple
of texts here. I don't think we can talk about
it enough. I think people are still celebrating. They're going
to celebrate all weekend long. And I'm glad they did
the parade before because by Monday, people will be into
the election, people will be beyond it, and it wouldn't
have the same impact.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Just think if they would not.
Speaker 8 (32:24):
Have come back in that game five, Game six would
be starting like right about it now, would be now
exactly beyond Yeah, and then we'd been nervous, and then
tomorrow game seven, we'd have been in a hospital. Ben,
What in how much had any changed everything?
Speaker 1 (32:39):
One? Any?
Speaker 3 (32:39):
Exactly right, buddy, Have a nice weekend, great month. See
on Monday and you and I are hosting election covers.
Yes Tuesday, Yes, looking forward to it.
