Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KMF I Am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Conway Show.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
We are going to tell you about the storms that
are coming in this week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.
Almost every day has the potential to wipe you out.
But first, we had a news story that we wanted
to cover before then, and it's about the corruption in
downtown Los Angeles. As some people are calling it missing

(00:30):
missing money. It is one corruption and we got monks
to talk about it. What's up, monks?

Speaker 3 (00:36):
All right?

Speaker 4 (00:36):
So I'm here to tell you about yet another audit
of the homeless money that's been spent in LA and
how difficult it is to keep track of it or
to measure its ex efficacy. This latest audit includes both
the Los Angeles Housing Homeless Services Authority known as LASA
and the city. So this is different than the LASA
audit we talked about earlier in the year, which was

(00:56):
not very favorable for that agency.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
This one also includes the city.

Speaker 4 (00:59):
This was mandated by a federal court where there's lawsuit
going on ordering the city to do a better job
on homelessness. Turns out they're not doing a very good
job and they're accounting.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Ah.

Speaker 4 (01:08):
So this outside auditing firm has been brought in, as
ordered by a federal judge to say, look, I need
you to tell us what's being spent, where it's being spent,
and what are the results that we're seeing. And basically
the answer has come back hmm.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Well, you know, I have.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
A theory that you know, Mayor Baths probably makes two
hundred thousand dollars a year being mayor of the city
of Los Angeles, So it's not worth it when you know,
right now after the fire is the majority of the
people don't like her anyway. And to make that kind
of money and have the half the city you know,
hate you or dislike you is really can get really
trying on your brain, can really annawedge you. So I

(01:46):
think the reason why these politicians get into the game
is they their hands are in all of that crap.

Speaker 4 (01:53):
Well, she has a signature program called inside Safe maybe
you've heard of it.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
That's part of this.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
And it's been difficult figuring out how much it's been
spent and what exactly it's been spent on because the
city and Lassa both keep poor accounting records. The auditors
have found that they both use a system that's prone
to human error, that they write contracts and pay them
out without finding out exactly whether the vendor had accomplished

(02:21):
what was set out to do, so they have no
measurements to quantify the success. And here's the point that
I keep wanting to make to our listeners about homeless funding.
Starting April first, all of us who buy anything in
La County are about to be contributing more to the
fight against homelessness. It was approved by voters in La
County by fifteen points in November that we want a

(02:44):
half sent sales tax in perpetuity to generate a billion quarter.
It was a quarter and it was set to expire
in a few years, so they are sunsetting that one
and starting April one will have a half sent sales tax.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
So sales tax in the City of law Los Angeles
or the County of Los Angeles will be at almost
eleven percent.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
Exactly to be about ten and a half percent for
everything that you buy, and they expect to generate about
a billion dollars a year.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Now, this was a county wide initiative.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Now you can avoid it by going outside of La
County to buy stuff, if.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
You want to head down to Orange County, San Bernardino County,
Ventura County, Wherever, Riverside County.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
But the problem is those counties all have taxes around
ten percent as well.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Well, if you're making a personal statement not to fund
the homeless programs through your purchases, then then that would
be the statement to make, not necessarily to save any money.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Now, I think they do it differently with cars. I
don't think.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
I think they because they don't want people going to
Orange County to buy cars that live in La County.
So I think the car guys get a break. Well
that may be the case, but if you want the
sales taxes and Oregon, by the way, zero percent. When
you buy two tacos a Jack in the box for
ninety nine cents, they give you a penny back if
you give them a dollar. There's no sales tax in

(03:57):
the state of Oregon. Why it's all paid for by
these video lottery machines and almost every bone you talk.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
About lars in Oregon, the sales Are you eyeing a move?
I'm thinking about it.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
Yeah, But I tried to work up there. I tried
to work up there, and I got an audition up
in Oregon. And it was the first day that these
two kids, I think she was eighteen and he was nineteen,
a couple man and a woman, and they went hiking
at Mount Hood and they got lost and there's three

(04:29):
hundred people looking for him. And then I went on
the radio that day because I was on that day
to audition, and I said, how dare these people go
up there without some kind of GPS. Their grandmothers and
grandfathers will never get over the fact that they are
probably going to be eaten up by bears, you know,
And that turns out what happened, Oh my god. People
got really pissed that. You know that I was saying

(04:50):
that that they should have GPS that early on, I guess,
but you called that it was a barry bear attack.
Well eventually they found bones.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
It was eaten.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
They don't know if it was a bear or not,
but it was eaten by wild animals. They were eaten
by wild animals.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
And so your prescience was not appreciated.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Well, look, it's you know, I think Oregon. You know,
they got their problems too up there. But the city
of Los Angeles ten and a half percent sales tax
and then fourteen percent income tax. That's twenty four percent,
all right, So that's twenty four zero point five percent.
And then if you're in the thirty percent tax bracket federally,

(05:28):
you're at fifty five percent tax.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
In the state of California.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
You know, this is one of the big problems in
Los Angeles. I think you've got a lot of good
people here, a lot of good neighbors, a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Who call you know, I've got a piece of paper.
Why don't you start rattling names off of good people.
There's Jen and I know Anne, Anna is good.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
Dean good people in polit Mitchell I can't do that,
of course, but I'll tell you. I mean, just my
general experience is people in La County have good hearts,
you know, in spite of the big city nature of it.
I mean, people are good and that's why they vote
for stuff like this, Like yeah, yes, but when you
find time and time again that you're not getting what
you pay for, right, it gets to be frustrating. And

(06:07):
it is very expensive to live here, and it is
very difficult to live here. It's very difficult to grow here.
It's very difficult to raise a family here, and it
doesn't have to be that way.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
It's difficult for You're right, everything in La. The reason
why I moved to Burbank is because the schools, the cops,
the fire.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Everybody works well.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
You know when I had twice over the last five years,
had to call the cops. One time they showed up
literally in twenty seconds. I mean the guy must have
been driving by and he was there in twenty seconds.
They probably had a detail on your house. Yeah, he
took a guy away that was trying to break into
a building next door to me, and they hauled him away.
And then the other one it was three minutes or

(06:49):
so for the cops to get there, and they do
a great job.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Another one is the city of Burbank.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
I had to shut the water off at the street,
and so I called the city and said, hey, can
I make any shut the water off which we can
do some plumbing work at the house.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
And they said what are you gonna do?

Speaker 1 (07:04):
And I said, well, the plumbers here now, but you
know you can come back tuesday whenever you can shut
the water off. He said, I'll be there in five minutes.
He was there in five minutes.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
I mean, you gotta love services like that because that's
what you pay for. That's why I don't mind paying
for Yeah, exactly, That's what I mean. If we were
getting what we are supposed to get. I live in
La Proper, and so I drive through Burbank to get there,
and I think, huh, it's awfully dreamy up here.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
If I were making that Conway money, I might move
over here.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
You don't even have to make that kind of money.
There are more renters in Burbank than their home.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
Well, and it's beautiful, a lot of trees and all that.
I make my way through Griffith Park. I got to
avoid the freeways right because it's just soul sucking. And
I'll drive through Griffith Park. But on the way to
Griffith Park, I think, Man, Burbank is really nice.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Michael get what they pay for.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
Michael Monks is with us. Let me ask you a question.
You're a smart guy. Did you ask anybody before you
move downtown La if that's a cool move.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
I did years of research on site visits. I knew
what I was getting into. I like to be the
change that I want to see in the world. All right,
When is that over.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
I don't know of getting old, and it's getting old.
You know.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
There was a writer for the La Times journalis for
the La Times, and he's gonna he said he was
a single father with a young kid, and I think
she was four or five years old. I'm gonna move
to downtown LA and show everybody how great it is.
I'm gonna raise my kid down there. He was there
nine weeks.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:20):
You know.

Speaker 4 (08:20):
The thing about it is, especially for those of us
who are from out of town, you assume that a
downtown is.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Cool, right like, and it is. By the way, downtown
is and downtown LA is.

Speaker 4 (08:32):
I tell everyone, it's really beautiful if you keep looking up,
I mean physically looking up. The skyscrapers, the buildings, the
you know, the shops, the downtown gorgeous. But if you
look down, God knows what you're stepping in and what
you're smelling and what you're seeing. It's all really rough.
But we love being able to walk to the market,
walk to the train, walk to the offices. But it
is ground zero of this homeless crisis. It is, and

(08:52):
we're spending all this money on it. We're not seeing results.
And by the way, our street lights are out. Those
are they've been out for how long? A couple of
days wherever? I mean for ever since you moved out.
It's not a Burbank situation like, hey, hey, Burbank Bob,
my light's out.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Can you come fix it? Okay? So what are they
gonna do with these billions that they can't find?

Speaker 4 (09:09):
Oh, it's not that they can't find it, it's just
that they assume there's been two hundred to excuse me,
two point three billion dollars spent, but they don't have
all of the details about how, and so there are
just and they're gonna have a hearing on this this
month at some point at the federal courthouse in downtown
LA incidentally, to go over some of these findings by

(09:31):
this auditing firm.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
So this isn't the last we've heard about this.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
Right I heard if they don't straighten up, that the
Feds might come in and take the city over.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
Is that true?

Speaker 4 (09:40):
I think in this environment you can expect that the
federal government is hungry to penalize any city that looks
like it's not up to snuff.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
And is there a better example than La?

Speaker 3 (09:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (09:49):
I guess you're right, buddy, appreciate you coming in. That
would be wild.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
You know, if the Marria gets thrown out, the city
council gets thrown out and the Feds take over.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
Yeah, you never know what happened.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
What happened most beautiful in the world, and the people
running it are just a holes, just huge a holes.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
That's the bottom line.

Speaker 6 (10:07):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Forty tonight at eight ten pm. If you look west,
you'll see a rocket blast off. I don't think it's
going to blast off and catch any sunlight though, you know,
the greatest launches are about a half hour after sunset
and you see the plume that comes out of the

(10:32):
back of the rocket and it lights up the sky
and it's pretty cool. So eight ten pm, grab the kids,
get on the porch, look west and up, up and
west and you'll be able to see that, and the
kids will see it, and the kids like that, and
maybe you like it as well. The hardest, the hardest

(10:52):
part of me watching those rockets is convincing my wife
to look at them. Man, she just has no interest,
just none.

Speaker 3 (11:00):
My zero.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
My sister the same way, like I called my wife.
About two months ago, one of those rockets had blasted
off and it was a huge plume. The sun had
just set and it was wild. I mean it looked
like it lit up the whole sky. I go, hey, baby,
I'll to go out and side look at this rocket.
And she goes, well, I'm in the laundry room. I said,
I know, but our laundry room is outside. I mean

(11:23):
you can literally open that door and look straight up
and you can see it. She's yeah, I'm in the
laundry room.

Speaker 7 (11:31):
I have pretty much the same conversations with Jen. Zero
interest in things like space.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (11:36):
With her, it's like it's too big of a concept
for her to be comfortable to wrap her head around.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
Right, That's why I like it. It makes us it
all seem so small. Absolutely me too.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (11:46):
Plus, I you know, I'm sure like you, I grew
up right on that edge of when I've been born.
In nineteen sixty eight, my dad sat me in front
of the moon the moon landing. Okay, it was, you know,
I was. I was ten days shy of my first birthday.
But it's still because I know my dad did that,

(12:07):
it's still ingrained in my memory. So I feel like
I'm a part of that generation in those late sixties,
even though I was born in sixty eight.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Jen was born in seventy one. Oh, so she has
no memory, so at that.

Speaker 7 (12:17):
Point her connection to things space. By the time you know,
she's aware of stuff, we were past the space stuff
at that.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Point in society. It's just a shuttle or two.

Speaker 7 (12:26):
Yeah, right, exactly. So it's kind of interesting. How Yeah,
I'm so about it. My dad was passionate about it.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
But yeah, I remember being on my mom and dad's
bed watching the moon landing.

Speaker 2 (12:36):
The moon landing, you remember that, I do. Yeah, Yeah,
that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (12:39):
I was six and the whole family got sat on
my parents bad. They had a black and white TV
tube TV, you know, one that takes two minutes to warm.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
Up, you hear it.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
Yeah, then you shut it off and it all goes
down to that one pin point middle and go on.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, that's it.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
So that's at eight ten pm, the rocket launch at
eight ten pm. Noise over the weekend, we talked about Carmacks.
Coincidentally enough, on Friday and then I turned on the
news and I saw a guy driving his car through
CarMax and I said, oh, I hope this is Nebraska

(13:23):
or Missouri or Ohio, maybe Michigan. And if it's California,
I hope it's northern California. Well it was California, and
it wasn't northern California. He was right here in Inglewood.
Guy drove his car through CarMax because he got a
bum offer from Carmacks. You know, everybody always assumes their

(13:45):
cars are worth like eighty grand and they're really only
worth like twelve hundred, and they get pissed when they
get a bad offer, a low offer, and that this
is not the way to handle it. This is not
the way. He got to kill the couple of people.
And by the way, wait, when you do this, you're
no longer invited back to Carmacks to look or buy

(14:06):
or sell or anything.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
You're done.

Speaker 5 (14:08):
There were several people inside of this CarMax when that
customer drove through, it sending people running. Eight people were injured,
two of them were originally in critical condition. And you
can see here behind me they do have the doorway,
they're boarded up and all that. This that happened, it
was caught on camera.

Speaker 8 (14:26):
Take a look.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
You know, guys just going in to get his daughter
a car or his son a car, maybe something for
his wife to tool around in, and then some idiot
has to come in and nearly kill everybody.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
Back there we go driving through the carmacks.

Speaker 5 (14:45):
You can see the customer reversing his SUV into the
doorway of the dealership. The glass door smashed, hitting whoever
and whatever was in his way. After driving through the building,
the driver took off. Now, this happened on Saturday, around
two in the afternoon at the carmacks located on the
eighty six hundred block of South Losianaga Boulevard.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
All right, Los Cienaga Boulevard right there in Inglewood. You
know they had those what are those pillars called made
out of cement or metal cross You always know those
terms because with the.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Bee of mollarwar Ballard. Ballard.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Yeah, not to watch towers, you said, Miles Teller. Yeah,
they have watch towers around Carles Tellers stem out of
the concrete there, the but ballards, you know those things
that are made out of supposed to keep the cars out. Well,

(15:38):
this guy went beyond like behind CarMax. So when he
tried to drive out of carmacks, he got stuck inside
with those things. He couldn't get out because of those
you know posts.

Speaker 5 (15:49):
Eight people, both customers and employees, were hurt. Two of
them taken to the hospital in critical condition, though they're
now said to be stable. The others suffered minor injuries.

Speaker 1 (15:59):
Guy Jess is buying a car and now he's in
the hospital.

Speaker 5 (16:04):
According to CarMax, the customer was having his vehicle a praise.
Witnesses say he was unhappy with the appraisal and may
have even thrown punches at an employees.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Okay, we're all unhappy with appraisals, all of us. Whenever
we get a praise, we're like, ah, hell, okay, damn well,
you don't drive through the CarMax. You just go to
another place and try to sell it on your own. Man,
does this city and this state we throw a lot

(16:33):
at you. If you want to get out and do anything,
you've got to basically have a kevlar vest on, a
helmet and just say your prayers that you're coming home
because we throw a lot as a city at people.
Just guys just going to CarMax. That's you know, almost
of it. Almost everybody listening right now has been to

(16:54):
a CarMax, you know. Decent, great people. I've had a
great experience. Bought two cars from Carmacks. My sister bought
two cars from Carmacks. She talks about how great her
experiences all the time. I love it, and tay.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
You know to go.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
It's just you always feel safe with CarMax, that people
there are cool, and now it's you know, now you
got to think twice every time you go anywhere.

Speaker 5 (17:16):
He left the building, got into his suv and then
drove through the showroom.

Speaker 9 (17:21):
But once I walked around, I just started hearing people screaming, run,
get out the way, and my obviously I didn't listen.
I ran towards it. All I see is just the
car like coming towards me. And then reversed back into
the shop and made made their own exit through the
other phone.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
I won if anybody corrected the grammar on that guy
when he was yelling that car was driving through.

Speaker 3 (17:38):
Car Maks screaming run get out the way.

Speaker 1 (17:40):
I wonder if anyone said, it's actually get out of
the way. You said get out the way, it's get
out of the way. Oh okay, well get out of
the way then, because this a hole is about to
kill you.

Speaker 9 (17:52):
Out the way and my Obviously I didn't listen. I
ran towards it. All I see is my Obviously I
didn't listen. I ran towards it.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Was my kind of guy. Yeah, nope, I'm getting in
the way. I'm gonna go tackle that van. I'm gonna
tackle that sucker.

Speaker 9 (18:12):
Obviously I didn't listen.

Speaker 3 (18:13):
I ran towards it.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
All I see is that I should be a copp
or in the army, actual responder.

Speaker 3 (18:18):
That's that.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yeah, that's the that's that instinct. You need to be
a first responder.

Speaker 9 (18:22):
All I see is just the car like coming towards
me and then reverse it back into the shop and
made made their own exit.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Through the other side.

Speaker 9 (18:29):
His reaction was incredible, because, man, who knows what kind
of charges he's gonna get charged out just because he didn't.

Speaker 2 (18:35):
Like his approval. Yeah, he's gonna like a lot.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
He's gonna like a lot of things less than his
approval today. Lots, lots are gonna be like, oh no, really,
thirty years in prison? Oh okay, God, I should have
gone with the first offer.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
Hey, can we revisit that first offer.

Speaker 1 (18:56):
I've had some time to think about it, you know,
I saw the van that went through. That offer is
not going to stand up. They're gonna have to bumper's
coming off.

Speaker 7 (19:05):
You're still driving through the place, and he gets in
text the value of your.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
Car is just going down. There's a guy behind him
with a notepad. Oh bumper light.

see more snow coming. Let's go to the Live Megedoppoler tonight.
We're clearing out over the ocean and it's moving in
our direction already.

Speaker 3 (21:08):
The leading edge of this.

Speaker 11 (21:10):
And see some convection here, meaning there are some showers,
maybe even some thunder with that which is rolling toward
point conception tonight, So late tonight, after midnight tonight, we'll
see rain coming into southern California. This first weather system
will produce between about a quarter and a half an
inch of rain.

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Okay, do you hear that? Don't have ask this?

Speaker 1 (21:29):
If you live in the burn Scar area, the weather
reports over the next four or five years are going
to be important to you.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Quarter and a half an inch of rain, quarter.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
To a half an inch of rain unless for the
first storm.

Speaker 11 (21:40):
Unless you're living down in Orange County and south to
San Diego, then you could pick up about an inch
of rain from this weather system.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
Hey belly, O, you're getting an inch of rain down
in Irvine.

Speaker 2 (21:51):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (21:52):
Also, it's going to produce some snow.

Speaker 11 (21:53):
And when you really get rolling with the flash flood watch,
that doesn't get going for you until Tomorrow night, Wednesday
night into Thursday, when we expect a fairly potent storm system.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
Do you hear that? Wednesday and Thursday.

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Potent storm system.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Fairly potent storms.

Speaker 11 (22:10):
And fairly potent storm system wow, to make its way
into southern California, and it will have with it an
atmospheric river. Therefore flooding is possible.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
We mentioned this, Okay, we get flooding, flooding atmospheric river.
That means constant storms, constant rain. It doesn't let up.
I'll be at the La River taking video like an idiot,
like I usually do. Petros will take a video as well.

Speaker 11 (22:38):
Last week. So let's look at it on the satellite
view tonight. It's a beautiful cyclone, this first one. It's
rotating out over the ocean and it is moving a
little south of southern California, but it's going to be
close enough to us that it will generate rain for
the area as it.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Moves in around San Diego.

Speaker 11 (22:57):
Look at that flow right there out of the south,
so we will get moisture into Socaw.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
We'll have some rain.

Speaker 11 (23:03):
Tomorrow and then down.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
In southern sections of the area. If you headed down
to Orange.

Speaker 11 (23:08):
County down towards San Diego, even more rain is forecast
down there. So as we put it into motion, there
goes the low taking with it the rain for tomorrow.
So be prepared for a rainy day between about a
quarter and a half an inch of rain, maybe an
inch from southern Orange County southward but the weather system
that I'm really watching is this cold front.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
It's going to be quite powerful.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
Okay, did you hear that? Don't half ast this. This
is important for you this week. Listen carefully, listen, listen
to this.

Speaker 11 (23:39):
But the weather system that I'm really watching is this
cold front.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
It's going to be quite powerful.

Speaker 11 (23:44):
There'll be a lot of lifting on the front edge
of it, meaning the air will be rising vertically, and
that will produce showers and even the possibility of thunderstorm.
So it hits the Sierra with heavy snow, and then
by early Thursday morning.

Speaker 3 (23:58):
It's going there.

Speaker 11 (23:59):
It's going to be right over southern California early Thursday morning.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
And at that point, Okay, Thursday morning, the first day
of the year that I have to drive to Huntington
Beach and we're supposed to get the biggest start.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
That is my luck.

Speaker 3 (24:19):
That fun.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
Yeah, that's my luck.

Speaker 11 (24:21):
It's gonna be right over southern California early Thursday morning,
and at that point there will be the chance of
some flooding in the area. So we're gonna be watching
that for you. Overnight low temperatures tonight are cool fifty
degrees in Northridge. I don't think we're seeing any rain
in Los Angeles tonight, But after midnight tonight we're gonna
have to bump that.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
Well, bets are off after midnight tonight, that's when you're
the rain.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
We're gonna have to bump that up.

Speaker 11 (24:44):
And then look how heavier it is down around the
Temecula Ocean side southern Orange County. You can see it's
raining heavier down there, and it's a really cool day.
Then once you get northbound up toward Ventura County, it's raining,
but not as Here's a seven day forecast, and we
have a lot for you tomorrow, seventy percent chance of

(25:04):
rain about a quarter to a half an inch fifty nine.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
All right, seventy chance tomorrow.

Speaker 11 (25:09):
Then on Wednesday, in between the storm tomorrow and Thursday,
we still have a chance of showers at sixty two.

Speaker 3 (25:16):
Not a lot, but they'll be.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Around okay Tuesday, heavy light flow on Wednesday.

Speaker 11 (25:22):
And then on Thursday morning with the passage of that front,
it's gonna pound us pretty hard early in the morning.
Did you hear that it's gonna pound us pretty hard.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
It's gonna pound us pretty hard. That is always bad news,
almost always bad news.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
It's gonna pound us pretty hard.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
Ninety nine percent of the time that comment is bad news.

Speaker 3 (25:48):
It's gonna pound us pretty hard.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
One percent.

Speaker 11 (25:53):
Early in the morning around sunrise, we could see one
to two inches of rain. Then we break into partly
cloudy scale scattered showers.

Speaker 2 (26:01):
All right, but the pounding is gone.

Speaker 11 (26:03):
It's gonna pound us pretty hard. Yeah, that's over for
the weekend.

Speaker 3 (26:06):
But not a lot of rain. And then the third
weather system comes in on Monday.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Oh, Monday, what's gonna happen Monday.

Speaker 11 (26:12):
It's gonna pound us pretty hard, and that will generate
a forty to fifty percent chance of rain. But the
big weather system will be early Thursday morning.

Speaker 2 (26:21):
Early Thursday morning.

Speaker 3 (26:23):
It's gonna pound us pretty hard.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
On Thursday morning, it's.

Speaker 11 (26:26):
Gonna pound us pretty hard. Yes, we do have a
chance of flooding at that time.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
Yes, Thursday morning, Thursday afternoon, it's.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
Gonna pound us pretty hard.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Yes, where are that if.

Speaker 11 (26:38):
You're gonna get the beaches? Same deal. Rain tomorrow, heavier
down in Orange County. Then on Wednesday, scattered showers, then Thursday.

Speaker 12 (26:45):
Morning, then Thursday morning. What's gonna go on Thursday morning
and Thursday morning Thursday morning. It's gonna pound us pretty hard.
Look at the winds blowing too. They'll be coming out
of the southwest and head of that front up to
twenty five and thirty five miles. It's gonna pound us
pretty hard.

Speaker 3 (27:03):
It's gonna pound us in the mountain areas.

Speaker 11 (27:05):
Prepare for snow six thousand feet tomorrow, maybe one to
four inches.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
And what's gonna happen up in the mountains.

Speaker 3 (27:11):
It's gonna pound us pretty hard.

Speaker 11 (27:13):
And then heavier snow is expected with the front Thursday.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Lots of weather coming in between tonight and next Monday.
So we got a week worth of radical weather coming
to southern California. So we just all have to deal
with it, all right, Very good. Uh, there's a news
coming out when we come back.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
We have.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
CVS news news about CVS. The pharmacy cock will tell
you about. That's good news. It's good news.

Speaker 6 (27:42):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
CVS is in the news. The pharmacy chain c v S.
I don't know what that stands for. Used to be
uh god, what was it? The save on used to
be saved on drug store Save on drug store, Save
on drugstore.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
That was their jingle on the save on.

Speaker 8 (28:08):
It stands for consumer value stores.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
Okay, all right, but when it was save on, they
used to have the radio bargain of the day. Do
you remember that, the radio bargain of the day. And
they only had it on radio. So in order to
hear the get the radio bargain of the day, you'd
have to listen to radio. That's a great idea, CVS.
I'd bring back the radio bargain. You know, it's like
a blue light special for people listening to radio. I

(28:36):
I think it's a great idea. All right, So CVS
is the news pharmacy chain is opening a dozen stores
this year, about half the size of its traditional layout.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
They're not going to include clothing, which is has smart
for you.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
We'll upset because CVS, man, you could buy they get
sweet deals on shirts.

Speaker 8 (28:59):
And your show for your summer wardrobe.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah, I mean, the look is awful, but the bargain
is great. The look I mean, I literally have a
shirt where the sleeves are striped and the rest of
the shirt is plaid, and I don't know what happened.

Speaker 13 (29:17):
I thought that's you were showing Krozier and I the
other day. The length of the arms. Oh yeah, I
got to hold one arm back to make it even.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
I have a shirt that I bought there.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
It may have been just a misprint, but the one
sleeve was about three inches longer than the other sleeve.

Speaker 8 (29:31):
It looked good though.

Speaker 1 (29:32):
Yeah, but I actually like my right sleeve longer than
the left sleeve. So I'm why is that? That's my
throwing arm? I like to keep it warm. But the
pharmacy chain is opening up about a dozen stores this year,
about half the size of the traditional layout, and some
of them will only be a pharmacy.

Speaker 8 (29:51):
Oh finally, Yeah, great, that's brilliant. Yeah, that's much needed.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
I go through the drive through at CVS because everybody
who's standing in line, you know, to get their prescription
is dying. Yeah, they're all dying.

Speaker 8 (30:11):
I'm one of those people.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
You're dying.

Speaker 8 (30:13):
That's not good news.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Yes, it's bad news. And I don't want to die yet,
you know, I want to try to stick around. I
want to see another World Series, another Stanley Cup, another
Super Bowl, you know, another Christmas, another New Year's.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
I like those holidays.

Speaker 8 (30:28):
Now everyone is sick in line.

Speaker 1 (30:30):
Unless you're getting it for somebody else in your family
who's dying. But everybody in that line is dying, and
they're almost all sick because nobody has anybody to run
to the pharmacy for him anymore. You know when you're sick.
When you were younger, your mom would run to the
pharmacy for you, or your dad, or your uncle, your neighbor,

(30:51):
and now nobody.

Speaker 8 (30:52):
Because the lines are so long.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
Yeah, the lines are long, and everybody's dying, and so
nobody wants to go. But you know, Belly, I don't
know what your experience with the pharmacy. And not CBS,
but all of them. They have a lot of those
envelopes in the back that they've got to look through,
like their albums at Tower Records.

Speaker 14 (31:13):
That's a part of what takes so long is they're
trying to find your prescriptions and they're crawling up on
ladders and stools.

Speaker 8 (31:20):
Just the other day, I was in there and she's like,
couldn't reach.

Speaker 14 (31:24):
The top shelf, and she's like pushing stuff aside, and
she kept missing one and I.

Speaker 8 (31:28):
Swear that was mine, and I'm like, just just.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
Right right there.

Speaker 8 (31:34):
I feel bad for them. It is like chaotic.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
I like when when somebody is getting a prescription they're
nine hundred years old, and the pharmacist says, hey, you
need me to talk you through this, and she says,
would you you know, because she's nobody else is in
contact with her.

Speaker 7 (31:51):
Anyone steps over about five feet to this side, and
you're like, oh my god.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
And the loud whispers that come out take this twice
a day, goes in your mouth, This suppository goes in
your oh well, you know you're.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
You're he he you.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Know, they try to color code it for these older folks.
You put it in your wahoo wahoo. Yeah, you're tuckas
in the rear. I got some positorys in the rear.
I hope I don't get suppositorys.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
In the rear again.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
You know my when we got the flu, my mom
big on suppositories.

Speaker 9 (32:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:36):

Speaker 2 (32:46):
You cough once and it's maybe I didn't even cough one.
I wasn't even coughing.

Speaker 1 (32:50):

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Oh is it tuesdays?

Speaker 12 (32:56):

Speaker 2 (33:03):
Thanks moles up to you when you're out in the neighborhood. Damn,
time for your suppositor.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Hey, mom, now that I'm twenty five, can I tackle
this on my own?

Speaker 2 (33:12):
Better be in here.

Speaker 7 (33:13):
By the time that street light turns on for your suppository.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (33:16):
She loved the suppository though. That was she was big
on suppositories and she would administer him. I hate to
say that. That's kind of a whistle.

Speaker 8 (33:27):
You're really opening up.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
Today, Yeah, kind of a down mom. I can do
it myself.

Speaker 1 (33:33):
I sort of got used to the help, you know,
and then I got too used to it.

At least give you a kiss before no geez.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Yeah, And I got super used to it, and I say, hey,
then I got married.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
I'm like, hey, Jen, was your family into these things?
I'm feting a little under the weather.

Speaker 13 (33:54):

interviewed for this job.

meaning that's right, that's right.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
I didn't. I was doing the toush push.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Way before the Eagles, I invented the soup the spread
Eagles super toush push.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
I'm sorry what the spread Eagle to push?

Speaker 1 (34:33):
