Speaker 6 (02:43):
Though.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
That means one million, two hundred and twenty three thousand,
two hundred and seventy meals plus with eighty nine thousand,
five pounds of food. I've got to believe that that's
probably I don't know, one hundred and eighty thousand meals.
How much is a how much pasta you get in
a meal? Do you get a half a pound a pasta?

Speaker 2 (03:04):
You think crows? You're the chef. That's a lot. Wait,
half a pound is a lot?

Speaker 7 (03:09):
Yeah, oh it is for one meal. Yeah, oh so
maybe like a third or quarter pounds. I would say
it at most a quarter pounds.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Okay, quarter pound of pasta. So that's four Well, you
got to let's say half of that. Actually, most of
this is probably sauce because sauce is heavy. So anyway,
they'll figure that out. We don't have to do that,
they'll do that. But that really is a great number.
So everybody involved, thank you so much for doing this.
You know, you didn't have to do it. You volunteered

(03:37):
to come on down. A lot of people gave a
lot of money. But to have over a million dollars.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Oh, we're not doing that again. We've done that. We
did that times.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Okay, let's talk about prostitutes. Sorry, yeah, well, clunky transition,
but hey, hey they're out there. You know it's uh,
I think it's the oldest profession. They always say that's
the oldest profession.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
It is not.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
You don't think it is. No, What do you think
the oldest profession is farming? M I don't know. I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
I like to think it's prostitutes. But prostitution the city
of Stanton.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
They don't like it.

Speaker 8 (04:26):
This call to deputies with the Orange County Sheriff's Department
for suspected prostitution just one of several Quitran has had
to make.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Okay, all right?

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Where where is from? A guy like me who was
born and raised in the valley? Where is Stanton? Is
that in Orange County? Say anywhere Stanton is believed?

Speaker 9 (04:47):
So?

Speaker 2 (04:48):
Yes, is it in Orange County? Isn't it near like Tustin?
The only time you hear of Stanton is like a
waterbed sale, waterbed store going out of business? Colton Stanton?
So south southwest of Banahan? Oh okay? Oh?

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Really southwest of Anaheim. It's in Anaheim. Or it's or
at southwest of Anaheim. It's south it's his own city.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
Yeah, I believe ding Don with those people.

Speaker 8 (05:11):
The truck's light just after midnight, catching trans attention this
past September and.

Speaker 5 (05:15):
They stay there for a long time, twenty minutes, and
I called police, you know, but lucky at that time,
I don't know what police.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
They came right away, so they caught them.

Speaker 8 (05:26):
That quick response could be because of these cameras helping
investigators watch areas in Stanton where prostitution is an issue.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
Well, oh, an issue in Stanton. Prostitution is an issue.

Speaker 10 (05:38):
When I came to the city in April of this year,
there was a substantial amount of foot traffic in those areas.

Speaker 8 (05:45):
As of this past summer, law enforcement has live stream
access to four hot spots along Beach Boulevard, like the
one here on the intersection with Star Street where Tran lives.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
They walked into the community very often around midnight or
after midnight, and they blay a row on the barbecue.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
You know, he say play or left. I think they
lay on the barbecue.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
That's a different kind of prostitute than I've ever seen.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
Blay a row on the barbecue.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
Oh my god, they're gonna get burned.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
Blay a row on the barbecue.

Speaker 2 (06:24):
I don't know what that means, that the prostitutes lay.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Look if somebody said you can do a story about prostitutes,
and one of the comments is that they lay on
a barbecue.

Speaker 2 (06:33):
You want to bet it for that or against it.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
I said, I put my house on against it that
I'll ever appear in that story.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
And here it is, blay a row on the barbecue.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Yeah, they lay around on the barbecue. They show up moody.

Speaker 4 (06:46):
You know, like area, a lot of conducts on the ground.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Oh, I see, okay, all right now, if you play
it in its full context, it makes.

Speaker 5 (06:54):
Sense blay a row on the barbecue, you know, like area,
a lot of condom books on the ground.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
That's a terrible.

Speaker 8 (07:03):
Employees of nearby businesses have similar complaints.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
I always found a kind of odd when guys complain
about prostitutes. I always thought that that's kind of an
odd connection, an odd you know, combination. I understand women
complaining about him, but it's always strikes me as strange
when a guy comes out and he's really uh, you know,
getting down on prostitution. I don't know, it's it's it's

(07:28):
an odd connection. It's an hot combination.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Kids, right, but if you have kids, if the man
has kids and stuff and doesn't want that around his kids,
I get it.

Speaker 7 (07:40):
But don't you let the wife tackle let me. He
also said it's like happening like after midnight. They know
kids around at that time.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
Yeah, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
It's look George Carlin said this sex is legal and
selling is legal. Why isn't selling sex legal?

Speaker 2 (07:57):
I don't know. He used the different term. Here's the.

Speaker 8 (08:06):
Staff at Kim's Piano say, prostitution doesn't allow for a
family friendly atmosphere.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Where are they in some kind of nineteen forty eight saloon?

Speaker 8 (08:14):
Staff at Kim's Piano say, prostitution doesn't allow for a
family friendly atmosphere for recitals or teaching.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
And the problem, Oh, he's at the piano store, at
the recital store.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Okay, isn't just at night, it's like morning.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
These these ladies are being dropped off.

Speaker 11 (08:32):
And so they are visible, and they are you know
oftentimes you know, hanging out here on.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
The barbecue, hanging out, laying on the barbecue, just laying
on the barbecue during the day.

Speaker 8 (08:45):
Since the installation of these solar powered cameras, people say,
there's a difference.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
A lot of different We'll see how it holds.

Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah, until it rains, and then there's no cameras for
three days.

Speaker 12 (08:55):
We don't really know yet, but definitely some immediate results
of I think we did see a decline.

Speaker 8 (09:01):
The first two went up in July, their success prompting
the installation.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
Of Oh they're talking about the cameras. Sorry.

Speaker 8 (09:07):
First two went up in July, their success prompting the
installation of more in September. Because they're on wheel, city
staff can place them in different locations as needed. They're
part of the Safe Streets Together campaign, funded by the
General Fund Special Projects budget.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
All right, there you go.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
If you live in Stanton, they're cleaning up the street.
So h party's over, parties over all right. We're live
on KFI AM at six forty. But congratulations again, thank
you very much for everybody to participate in Canterita's Club.
That is a great number. One million, two hundred and
twenty three, two hundred and seventy dollars. That is our record.
We've never raised that much money, so thank you, thank you,

(09:44):
thank you.

Speaker 6 (09:45):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (09:51):
Somebody just sent us an email saying that they live
in Stanton or close to Stanton and if you drive
by these prostitution cameras that they put up in Stanton,
that they talk to you. The cameras talk to you,
and they say this if you walk, if you walk

(10:13):
by a prostitution camera. Again, they're trying to get rid
of the prostitution Stanton down Orange County. They're putting up cameras.
And these cameras are expensive. They're thirty nine thousand dollars
each solar powered and they also have speakers on them.
And here's the running message. If you get in that
area and you get too close to one of these.

Speaker 10 (10:33):
Cameras, you were entering an area known for prostitution and
human trafficking. Prostitution and human trafficking are serious crimes that
are illegal under both state and federal laws.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Okay, now, if you heard that, you would probably, I
don't know, probably high tail it out of there. But
it sounds too robotic, you know, it sounds too much
like I don't know, like the white zone is for
mediate loading and unloading of parking only.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
I don't know why they would put that audio in there.

Speaker 7 (11:02):
I mean, AI audio has gotten so good, why would
I put that that sound which people just automatically tune.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Out and buddy. Look, wouldn't I think I'm the guy
to do the recording? You know, Hey, hey, now hey,
it's Conway from kfive, Bud. Look, you're about to make
a really bad decision that's gonna f up your life,
your family's life. Just you know, zip home, don't you know,
save yourself a couple of bucks. Maybe head out to

(11:29):
I don't know, Marongo and enjoy yourself. But please put
it back in your pants and move on. They need
me to do it, that would be they need me
to do it, not this lady. This lady is that
means nothing to anybody. Get a better response from you, exactly.

Speaker 10 (11:45):
You were entering an area known for prostitution and human trafficking.
Prostitution and human trafficking are serious crimes that are illegal
under both state and federal laws.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
There you go, all right, So, Stanton, I'm always surprised
Krozer that it gets to a new story. You know
that that that the locals can't knock this out themselves.
Like if prostitution were going on the streets of Burbank,
the residents of Burbank would handle it. You know, there's
enough guys out there, family members, wives, children, it would
be they'd move on pretty quickly. Yeah, but I guess

(12:15):
there's you know, enough people in that area in Stanton
that either I don't know, accept it or you know
what I also think it is. I think they set
up in areas where there are a lot of people
here who either have criminal records or not here legally,
and so those are the two people that don't really
call the cops on drop the dime on anybody.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
Yeah, they know which neighborhoods theyre going to. Yeah, I
think that's I think that's what it is.

Speaker 7 (12:39):
And I think the one guy in the story had
mentioned that before when they would call about prostitutions or
prostitutes in the area, they wouldn't really get a response
from the police or it would take a really long time.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
Oh is that right? At least with these cameras now, I.

Speaker 7 (12:53):
Guess it feeds directly to them that they that they
much much more quickly, much more quick with a response.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Well, because the guys would call the cops and say,
you know, Stanton Police Department, what's going on, Well, there's
prostitutes out here?

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Well where are they?

Speaker 4 (13:08):
Blair row on the bubbecue.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
Oh all right, well we'll get right out there.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
They're laying what blay a row on the bubbecue?

Speaker 2 (13:17):
They're laying around on the barbecue. Man, does that sound
like that? I?

Speaker 5 (13:23):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Ray Charles? We can forget about the pits barbecue?

Speaker 4 (13:28):
Is that say? On the bubbecue?

Speaker 9 (13:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (13:31):
Oh, that's a that's a great scene. Mess around.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yeah, the mess around, the mess around, the mess around. Oh,
I gotta play the scene for you. It's one of
the greatest scenes in all of motion pictures. It's Jamie
Fox in the movie called Ray, all about Ray Charles,
and they do a scene where he's in the recording
studio and they're trying to get Ray to to change

(13:56):
his his voice and his inflection because he's ever gonna
have a hit if he sings like everybody else. One
of the great scenes ever in motion pictures, and he
won an Academy Award for Best Actor from this movie Ray,
where he portrays Ray Charles. But so he's with his
manager Emmett, and he's playing the piano the recording him

(14:18):
and Emmett has to come in and say, hey, look
this isn't working out.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Here's the scene. It really is great. Moses my savings.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
Dad, Therefore, go to Jorge be.

Speaker 2 (14:32):

Speaker 2 (16:50):
What a great scene. Now that girl with one of
the greatest scenes in in motion picture.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
History on the bubbacue and this guy, this guy professor,
this is the this is the this is the remake.

Speaker 4 (17:06):
Of it Lea Row on the bubbacue.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
Yeah, that's the new title of it.

Speaker 6 (17:10):
All right, ding dongs, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior
on demand from kf I AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
Let's get an update on this lunatic. This LUISG. Manngo.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
All Right, the guy who allegedly killed Brian Thompson in
the streets of New York, head of United Healthcare CEO
making ten million dollars a year, father of two kids,
gunned down Wednesday morning.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
We could go yesterday in the streets of New York
and let's see. I fab we got any more information
on this on this lad.

Speaker 14 (17:47):
The case against Luigi Mangioni, the twenty six year old
accused of murdering CEO Brian Thompson in Manhattan, appears to
be getting stronger. NYPD investigators say they've made significant forensic
breakthroughs on a gun found on the alleged killer when
he was arrested in Pennsylvania.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Sounds like this is the guy. We were able to
match that gun to the three shell casings that we
found in Midtown.

Speaker 14 (18:11):
The police commissioner also says Magngioni's fingerprints match those found
on a water bottle and kind bar wrapper found near
the crime scene.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
We've already got some powerful evidence for the prosecution. I
like that they mentioned the name of the of the
granola bar that he's eating.

Speaker 16 (18:29):
Match those found on a water bottle and kind bar wrapper.

Speaker 2 (18:33):
A kind Bar rapper.

Speaker 7 (18:35):
I was wondering about that because I don't know what
they would call it, because I think the instinct is
to say candy wrapper, but it's not, so it's like
what a what?

Speaker 2 (18:43):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
I think it's a cleaner. I think you're right. I
think it's not a granola bar. It's maybe a nut bar,
but some of them are not.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
Not a rush bar maybe or something.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
Those things really took off, and you know you can
only have one of those every six months.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
They're really rich. How much one you get?

Speaker 1 (18:59):
Yes, yeah, man, stick with you a while. Boil boy,
Maybe that's why you went nuts. He overdid with the
kind bar speak yeah boy.

Speaker 16 (19:07):
Kind bar wrapper found near the crime scene.

Speaker 18 (19:10):
We've already got some powerful evidence for the prosecution that
sounds like it.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
You got the gun, you got the manifesto, you got photos,
you got fingerprints, you got the gun matching the case things.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
It sounds like I could try this case.

Speaker 14 (19:27):
According to two sources familiar with the investigation, In addition
to three hand written pages, Mangioni also had a notebook
with this written inside, what do you do you whack
the CEO at the annual Parasitic Bean Counter convention.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
Well, it's certainly exactly what he did. So there's another
piece of evidence.

Speaker 14 (19:46):
What do you do, you whack the CEO at the
annual parasitic bean counter convention. It's targeted, precise and it
doesn't risk innocence. Maggioni's attorney says his client plans to
plead not guilty to the charges. Order of an executive
at one of the largest private health insurance in the country.

Speaker 16 (20:04):
Has unleashed a torrent of anger at the industry.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
You know, this is a weird guy, this Luigi Manngoni.
Usually when you get nuts like this who kill people
on the streets of New York, they're either you know,
they're smoking, drinking, doing drugs, in and out of prison,
in and out of uh you know, police station has
been arrested a bunch of times. But this kid obviously
worked out. He comes from money. He's eating those kind bars.

(20:31):
Those aren't cheap, they are not.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
And he seems to be buttoned up, you know, like
a like a like an assassin.

Speaker 1 (20:40):
It's weird. This is a weird case, and he has
just one tiny little flaw. He goes around killing CEOs
and in this country, that's not gonna be tolerated. Corporations
still run by the Justice Department.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
That's right. Corporations still run this country, whether you like
it or not, they do. And you can't do that.

Speaker 14 (21:02):
Yesterday, Senator Elizabeth Warren making headlines with these remarks.

Speaker 19 (21:06):
Violence is never the answer. But you can only push
people so far. What But you can only push people
so far?

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Okay, all right, and then what you can kill CEOs?
Is that the That the the second part of that statement.

Speaker 19 (21:21):
But you can only push people so far, and then
they start to take matters soon is a routing.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Hands okay, like the January six ers.

Speaker 19 (21:30):
But you can only push people so far, okay, and
then they start to take matters soon is a routing
hands ah.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Okay, reserved for that side, but not the other side.
I get it, I get it well.

Speaker 16 (21:42):
Authorities are warning of increased threats.

Speaker 20 (21:45):
The impact is similar to that of a domestic terror attack,
and that is already being reflected in this just torrent
of online vitriol and the lionization of the alleged perpetrator.
This one has all the hallmarks of something that is
going to inspire and contribute to a contagion effect in.

Speaker 16 (22:09):
New York City.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
I hope that doesn't happen, but it might.

Speaker 5 (22:12):
It might.

Speaker 14 (22:13):
In New York City, fake wanted posters have appeared targeting
other CEOs of health insurance companies. The head of United
health Group, the parent company of United Healthcare, sending a
message to its employees, calling Thompson one of the good
guys and saying the company will take precautions to ensure
employees feel safe and supported.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Man, that's a it's a weird story, all right. An update,
Another update on Luigi Mangian.

Speaker 2 (22:36):
At least are.

Speaker 11 (22:37):
Questioning the prominent family of the man charged with gunning
down the United Healthcare CEO in New York City. Guardies
want to understand what relatives of Luigi Mangione knew during
the massive manhunt at the time of his arrest on Monday.
A notebook was found on the twenty six year old.
Police believe it laid out his murder plot, complete.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
With a to do list of tasks.

Speaker 11 (23:00):
Mangeoni suffered from a severely painful back condition and underwent
surgery last year.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Meanwhile, there are.

Speaker 11 (23:07):
Growing concerns over the outpouring of support from Mangoni and
outrage with the healthcare insurance industry in New York City.
Fake wanted posters are popping up on streets targeting insurance
company CEOs and executives with a red X marking their
faces and a warning that reads, quote healthcare CEOs should

(23:28):
not feel safe unquote. A private security company says more
executives are hiring their services.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
Yeah, that's a bad deal. All right.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
Let me when we come back, we're going to talk
to you about the fire. They're calling it the Franklin
fire in Malibu. Is PCH open? Are they allowing people back?
It's the Bank of Canyon opens, Malu Canyon open. The
answers to all of those questions and more when we
come back. But that fire man that really dominated the
news in the last couple of.

Speaker 4 (23:59):
Days and lea row on the bubbecue, No.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
It's from a different story. They're not laying around on
barbecues and non Malibu.

Speaker 6 (24:07):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
Let's get the latest on the Franklin fire. That's the
Malibu fire. Let's find out if residents can slide back
into their million dollar homes.

Speaker 18 (24:21):
Some of the mandatory evacuation orders are still in place.

Speaker 4 (24:25):
No, but listen.

Speaker 18 (24:27):
There is still a lot of work by the two
thousand firefighters that are still here battling the Franklin Fire.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
Even though some evacuation orders have been lefted.

Speaker 18 (24:37):
First responders are asking residents to be careful as they
return home, and for those who are still waiting to return,
they're being asked to be patient.

Speaker 9 (24:45):
I can tell you I am boots on the ground,
and I assure this community we are working diligently. We
are working so quickly on this.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
I mean, the reality is, I can't stand that term,
and anybody who casually uses that term is crazy.

Speaker 9 (25:01):
I can tell you I am boots on the ground.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
I'm boots on the ground. God is that annoying?

Speaker 1 (25:07):
Remember that the two royal idiots that use that what's
their names, the ones that live up in Santa Barbara,
Megan mark Man, Meghan Markle, she used that term. When
we get back to Great Britain will be boots on
the ground. Really, now, it's just so dumb.

Speaker 9 (25:25):
The reality is, we weren't going to open till later,
and we pushed this and worked with our utility crews,
worked with our fire department.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
Yeah, boots on the ground.

Speaker 18 (25:35):
There are still close to two thousand firefighters and their
vehicles battling the Franklin Fire. That's one of the main
reasons not all evacuation orders have been lifted in some areas,
power lines are down. Once the Franklin Fire is fully
contained and all evacuation orders have been lifted, LA County
Public Works is asking residents to start thinking about much

(25:57):
like threats.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
Yes, I told you about that mud slide. Threats are
going to begin immediately. They're gonna have to put up
k rails immediately, like tonight or tomorrow, because the moment
we get any kind of rain. This is not a
fire that happened in mid June or July or August,
where the vegetation has August, September, October, November five months

(26:22):
to regrow. This is fresh, and when these rains hit
later this month January February, you're going to see a
lot of Malibu getting wiped out by mud.

Speaker 21 (26:32):
Public Works will be offering free engineering advice as we
move in to recovery. Many residents may be interested in
knowing if they need further protection on their property.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
They will, They will almost everybody will do two burns.

Speaker 4 (26:47):
Cars.

Speaker 18 (26:49):
Damage has been minimal. Ellie County Fire says six homes
have been damaged, four homes destroyed, and five outbuildings were
also destroyed.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
First responders a.

Speaker 18 (26:58):
Local politicians say the reason for the minimal amount of
damage done was because of all of the pre planning
done before the Santana wins hit. Remember the Woolsy fire
of twenty eighteen that destroyed nearly five hundred homes in
Malibu alone. Wow, there were lessons learned from that fire.

Speaker 22 (27:16):
One thing that probably made the most difference is the
way the fire despartment response. It used to be that
you escalate up to the fire, and with our new regime,
car department gets through everything had to call it back
at you gone.

Speaker 1 (27:31):
I wonder if the people up in Ventura are pissed
that they think that the rich people got better treatment
than they did.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
I'm not saying they did or didn't. I'm just saying if.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
The people who live up in Oxnard feel like, yeah,
they You know, one hundred and thirty seven home burnt
homes burned to the ground, and in Malibu there were four.
But the reason why fewer homes burned in Malibu is
the proximity. You may not have another unless you live

(28:02):
on the beach, you may not have another home within
five six hundred yards of you, But up in Oxnard
there's homes right next to you, and maybe that made
it difficult to fight up an Oxnard. Plus the wind
was much more radical up an Oxnard and Ventura.

Speaker 18 (28:18):
And one thing first responders are pointing out is that
residents here in Malibu in the evacuation areas were very cooperative.
When they were asked to leave, they were already packed
and ready to go, and they took off. Now some
of those residents are being allowed to go back home
reporting live in Malibu, I'm said Garcia.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, so a lot of the.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
People who did leave Malibu, you know, they're they're slumming
it in you know, thousand dollars a night hotels. You know,
they're down in shutters or you know, at the Parker
Meridium or I don't know wherever the you know the
nearest how sweet is but a lot of a lot

(29:02):
of these a lot of these people who were burned
out of their homes have tons of money, and so
they when they leave their home, they go to the
Beverly Hills Hotel, the bel Air Hotel if that's not available,
they'll slide into the four seasons, and that's where they're
slumming it right now.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
In the four seasons.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
Perhaps the region Santa Monica, maybe I don't know, the Concord,
Los Angeles, the Waldorf Astoria at eleven hundred bucks a night,
Region Santa Monica Beach eleven hundred bucks a night, the Conrad,
Los Angeles cheap only six hundred bucks a night. Bell
Air Hotel nine to seventeen a night, and this is
before taxes and fees. Four Seasons Hotel eight thirty four

(29:49):
a night. How about this one, the unparalleled luxury mansion
with a pool, sixteen hundred bucks a night. And so
they're Chateau Marrimount nine fifty a night. Rich Carlton cheap
six forty four a night. And that's where a lot
of the people who have been burned out in Malibu

(30:10):
are hanging right now. Beverly Wilshire, four seasons, the Waldorf,
the Peninsula in Beverly Hills, Laramatage West, Hollywood Edition. They're
all over the place in these very expensive.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
Homes, all right.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Dick van Dyke, Dick Van Dyke one of my favorite
actors in the world. Remember him from Mary Poppins and
before that, the Dick Van Dyke Show. I think he
was also in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Great great actors.
I remember that Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was an awesome
movie grown up. But Dick Van Dyke describes his ordeal
in escaping the raging wildfires in Malibu.

Speaker 15 (30:47):
Wild weather on both coasts, with floods in the Northeast
overnight and in Malibu, California, firefighters beating back the flames
of a destructive wind driven wildfire. Water and bright pink
fire retardant drop from the skies. A super Scoopa plane
collecting water from the ocean part of the air attack.

Speaker 9 (31:06):
Oh. I got very lucky this time, and I learned
to everything but my hoss.

Speaker 15 (31:11):
A number of homes now destroyed, residents returning to comb
through the ruins, thousands still under evacuation orders and warnings,
including celebrities like Jane Seymour, who posted dramatic photos of
the flames near her home, and screen legend Dick Van Dyke,
captured on his ring camera evacuating.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
How sad is that Dick Van Dyke? Who's uh? I
think he turned one hundred and he's one hundred and
thirty eight.

Speaker 10 (31:35):
Is that right?

Speaker 2 (31:36):
One hundred and thirty eight along with this one? How
old is he in ninety five? He's either going to
be or is ninety nine like this month? Whatever?

Speaker 15 (31:44):
Wow, what a life this guy's lived, along with his wife,
Arlene and their pets.

Speaker 4 (31:49):
It was coming over the hilly, you can see it.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
God, he sounds like he's fifty. This guy.

Speaker 4 (31:53):
It was coming over the hilly, you can see it,
and oh.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
My god, and we got out of here.

Speaker 15 (31:59):
Then, who turns ninety nine tomorrow, says he.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Was outside right ninety nine tomorrow, ninety nine the stick
Van Dyke then die who ninety nine years old?

Speaker 2 (32:12):
Man? Oh man, what a life that dude had there
has sorry.

Speaker 15 (32:16):
Van Dike, who turns ninety nine tomorrow says he was
outside struggling, trying to unsnarl his fire hose when neighbors
showed up.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
I was trying to crawl. Yeah, he was trying to
crawl around, and uh, what else was he doing?

Speaker 4 (32:30):
Lay a row on the bubbecue.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
I wasn't doing that at all. I was trying to
crawl to the car. I had exhausted myself. I couldn't
get up.

Speaker 5 (32:39):
And three neighbors came and carried me out, and came
back and put out a little fire in the guesthouse
and saved me.

Speaker 15 (32:47):
This community fire brigade also joining the fight.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Guy's ninety nine years old and he's trying to put
out a fire at his house.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
God, a mighty man.

Speaker 15 (32:57):
Local civilians who've been trained to help protect them was
around them.

Speaker 6 (33:00):
I lost my parents' house, A lot of my friends
lost their houses.

Speaker 15 (33:03):
While across the country a storm system bringing powerful winds
and heavy rain to the northeast, leaving cars stranded in
a flooded tunnel in Boston.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
Okay, well that's Boston. We got our own problems out here.

Speaker 7 (33:15):
It's still one of the more distinguishing voices all time,
Dick Van Dyke. You could pick that voice out even now,
you know, if you go back and watch Mary Poppins.
Dick Van Dyke has talked about this. The script supervisor
on the movie was so intimidated by him that they
didn't want to tell him when he wasn't using his

(33:36):
British accent, and his accent sucked. Yeah, when he does
use it at all, didn't use it at all, And
there are scenes in Mary Poppins that he has no
accent at all.

Speaker 15 (33:44):
Hey Mary, what's going on?

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (33:46):
Right, yeah, it's like, well, ladies and gentlemen, this is
Mary Poppins, Like Dick, we need the we need the
we need the British accent.

Speaker 4 (33:55):
Where are you going?

Speaker 1 (33:57):
I did the liney accent there, but while Barry Poppins again,
and it's it's pretty evident, and he even he even
talks about it.

Speaker 2 (34:06):
He's like, God, I wish somebody had told me.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
