Speaker 2 (06:06):
That's wild. Yeah, I thought you were just basing. I

Speaker 7 (06:12):
It started when I was a kid and I used

Dutch boy haircut.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
And then I got Val Kilmer, and then I got
Matt Damon. Yeah, one of those.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
I used to get one guy that people always used
to say, Hey, you look like Larry Flint.

Speaker 5 (06:35):
What Oh I see, It's got a.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
Great story about him when I met him.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
Once, Larry Flynt, who ran Penhouse. Right, Yes, sir, what happened?

Speaker 7 (06:44):
He was he came in for uh to be a
guest on the Wayne Resnick Show when Wayne was on

Speaker 2 (06:50):
And is he already paralyzed?

Speaker 7 (06:52):
Yes, oh yes, yes, yeah he uh and uh So
he was coming into the studio and I was in.
I was in another room with Phil Henry actually and
his producer Joan at the time when we were talking
about oh, he's coming in, He's coming in, and I said,
I don't care about him.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
I just want to see that gold wheels. Tarry's on
right as I said that, Oh that's great.

Speaker 7 (07:12):
It was right by the doorway, and the guy pushing
him looks sitting to me. Larry kind of turns his
head to me and I go, that's the best moment
of my life.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Oh, that's great. He was a great guest. He was
a drivin guest man. We had him on a couple
of times.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
Very personable.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
Yeah, and we got a lot of sound bites from him,
you know, from Hey Rick. You know, we got all
those sound bites and I don't I forget use nowadays,
but used them back then. All right at Dodger Stadium.
Big news out at Dodgers Stadium tonight. We'll come back.
We'll tell you why people are lining up since five
thirty this morning. At Dodgers Stadium five thirty this morning,

(07:47):
people got in line.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
We'll tell you why when we come back.

Speaker 6 (07:51):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
Big news with the Dodgers. I know that steph USh
is not a big fan of traffic.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
You got caught up in that again today? Is that? Ryan? Oh?
C Yeah, I did, Buddy.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Every time you drive by Dodger Stadium and there's traffic,
you should just assume there's something going on with show. Heyotani,
that's what's going on, and today is no exception. People
started lining up and sleeping there this morning. At five thirty,
five thirty am, they were lining up to get into
Dodger Stadium. There are more than two hundred cars parked

(08:32):
out of there. Outside of there, at noon, people drove
to Dodger Stadium to be one of the first people
in the stadium to get a Bobblehead doll of show. Heyotani,
it's a it's an amazing feat. I mean, these Dodgers
are knocking it out publicity wise, we start with the
Webby Awards, that's not it. Let's go with this one.

Speaker 8 (08:52):
Yeah, So tonight we have a show. Hey Otani's MVP
Bobblehead Night. It's his third MVP that he's one, and
his first one with the Dodgers. So we're really excited
about this.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
You know, a Krozer. This is more of a commentary
on the Angels than is the Dodgers. But my wife,
the lovely one, she's not a sports hater. She's a
Kings fan. She knows the Dodgers. She can name you
four or five Lakers. She can probably name you eight Kings.
She watches the Rams loosely, you know, when I watch them.

(09:26):
So she's not a sports hater all right. Up until
last season, she thought that Shoe Otani came from Japan
to the Dodgers.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
She had no idea he was debuting with the Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Yes, she had no idea that he was on the
Angels in our own backyard for what five or six years.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
I blame and the Angels for that.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Angels really dropped the ball on that one where they
had them. They literally had this guy for five years,
and people live in this market didn't know that.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
That's why I was so surprised that Mike Trout's hung
there for so long. Yeah, Trout's been the while too.

Speaker 7 (10:00):
I mean, and he was you know when he first
came in, he what Rookie of the Year, very show
Antony White as far as like how good the guy is.
And he stayed there. I'm like, all right, you just
want to play. You don't care about you know.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Well, if you went to the you know, if you
went to Major League Baseball, would you like to stay
on the Angels and have a ten million dollar house
in Newport Beach, or you know, go to Chicago and
try to win a ring, which Chicago teams pick either or.

Speaker 2 (10:33):
Right. Either. Anywhere you go outside of LA it's rough. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
You go to San Diego and they've never won one,
you know, so your chance of winning them are pretty
slip pretty much.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Dodgers, Yankees for the most part.

Speaker 7 (10:43):
Yeah, I mean, you know, a couple of other teams
you get throw in there, but for the most part, yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
There are people who the the San Francisco Giants offered major, major, huge,
life ending contracts they never have to work again, and
players said no because they didn't want to live in
San Francisco. They said no, thank you. I think Snell
was one of those guys. You know, he used to
play for the Giants. He goes, I gotta get the
hell out of you, and now he plays for the Dodgers.

(11:09):
But you can't play for Oakland and live, you know,
and and be happy. They're not going to win a championship.
Seattle's not going to do anything. Denver never does anything.
I mean, where would you go. It's better just stay
with the Angels, live in Newport you know, go go
get thirty five home runs a year, sign a bunch
of autographs, and have a restaurant and steal beach.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, just quiet career for the most part. Yeah, I
would do the same thing. You know, I don't have
to have a ring. Yeah, what the hell.

Speaker 7 (11:33):
I'd be the way in the game for the ring.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
I'd be the worst guy on the Dodgers. Like, why
you guys always batting so well?

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Can you take it down little?

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Hey, guys, these home runs we don't always we'll lose
a lot of balls. We have to always hit home runs. Hey,
let's let the braves the way. Let's let the braves
take one, you know, one out of three every once
in a while. Come on, all right, So everybody's lined
up to get the show. Hey Otani Bobblehead.

Speaker 8 (12:04):
Dah fans really have loved the show. Hey, bobbleheads, And
we're going to have a couple of them this season.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah, and ninety percent of them sell them that night
on eBay.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
They get two three hundred bucks for them. That's why
they're getting them.

Speaker 8 (12:17):
Yeah, you know, they're already being pre sold on eBay
for starting at one hundred.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
And sixty bucks. Yeah, it's going to go for well
over one hundred and sixty.

Speaker 9 (12:24):
Last time saw, we were saying, I hope you have
security come because these are very highly coveted.

Speaker 8 (12:30):
Well, you know, we have a great team at the
Dodgers who works really hard to bring our fans best
in class promotions. The organization works really hard to put
an amazing team on the field, and we also want
to reward our fans for their support and have some
great promo items for them to take home.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Why are they so coveted though?

Speaker 4 (12:48):
Talk about like the value of these bobbleheads, you.

Speaker 8 (12:51):
Know, I think there's there's a long history of the
Dodgers and bobbleheads and fans just they they love them.
I mean, it's sometimes it's a little bit inexplicable about
how how much they have London, and.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
I think a lot of them are selling over in
Japan as well. You know, in eBay is international, so
if you put something on eBay, somebody from Japan can
buy it and they can you know, pay you, I
don't know one hundred and fifty, one hundred and sixty
bucks for it, I would without looking into it. I
bet a lot of them are going overseas. A lot
of these bibbleheads, a lot.

Speaker 8 (13:23):
Of them, and appreciated the bobbleheads. But but we love
their support, and you know, we continue to try to
make amazing bibblehead season after season.

Speaker 2 (13:31):
Yeah, you know, the big question is how do they
get their hands out. Of course the show Hey once
a night, that's the biggest get and then the other
items you brought.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
I think you have to be one of the first
forty thousand people to get in.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (13:41):
So next homestand kicks off with our Freddie Freeman Bobblehead Night,
which will be on April eleventh. Of course, this is
Freddy's iconic post from those year and slam in Game
one of the World Series last year. So this again
a full stadium giveaway first forty thousand fans.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Okay, you gotta be one of the first forty thousand
fans to slide into the stadium to get one tonight.

Speaker 7 (14:07):
And they shouldn't say full stadium, he said full stadium,
first forty thousand.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Well, that means every level gets them, you know, like
the outfield.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
He has the opportunity to get it. Yes, the outfield
can get one. They are really good seats, the seats
where you get a massaged.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Set by saying the first forty thousand.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah, but I mean it's a full stadium. He's saying
that the outfield people at the cheap bleacher seats can he.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Get one as well? That's no. I think. I think
they're a great marketer. I suppose.

Speaker 8 (14:34):
So this is again a full stadium giveaway first forty
thousand fans. Nice, so cute.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Are there still tickets available for tonight?

Speaker 8 (14:42):
Yeah, there are still tickets available tonight. There's still tickets
available for all of these nights, so don't be discouraged.
They are popular items, but we have plenty of tickets.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
There you go, You gotta get out there. See those Dodgers. Man,
there's seven and oh or six and oh?

Speaker 2 (14:56):
Six and oh?

Speaker 1 (14:56):
I think I think there's six and oh and tonight
will be seven if they win.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
I think that's the record seven and no now seven
and no, okay, are going for eight in a row.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
And last time they did that was nineteen eighty one
and they won the World Series.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
Who was the other team that's seven and no? Ooh,
I would say San Diego. Yeah, is that right? Well done?

Speaker 1 (15:17):
I think Dong I know more than my wife does
about sports.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
All right, can you say that? Can you say that? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Yeah, I wonder if there's guys listening, go, I can't
say that, you know, I bet, I bet there are,
you know, because you know, there are a lot of
women in sports now, especially in women's sports, and there's
a lot of you know, sideline commentators that are women
who probably know a hell of a lot more than
you and I combined most of.

Speaker 7 (15:45):
The major league teams in the organization's NFLNBA, they've done
a substantial job and appealing to women more in the
last decade.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Oh yeah, yeah, and yeah absolutely. I mean, look, the
biggest Dodger fan here at is Amy King. Yeah she's
a woman, Yeah yeah, thing don with her.

Speaker 6 (16:08):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
I don't know if you saw this, but man is
who's with the morning show for their Woodies show at
the ninety eight point seven he walked from Burbank to Disneyland.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
How long did that take? Stephush, I heard it.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Was forty I wasn't forty.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
Hours, No, no, no, it was about twenty hours. He
started nineteen hours. Yeah, oh it's forty yeah, forty miles. Yeah,
he started at three am. He got there around nine
fifty people. Long day.

Speaker 2 (16:49):
That's a long ass day. Yeah, yeah, that's that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
And he got the right when they were closing. Yeah,
is his car broken down? What's all his car? He
got there right when they were closing too, Like it
was so was that right?

Speaker 2 (17:04):
Yeah, that's class. They let him r bub and.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
Like ten minutes later they actually were closing down the park.
Told you, that's awesome.

Speaker 4 (17:15):
What he greeted him with a wheelchair.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
Okay, yeah, you know, he probably wouldn't have been the
same bit. But next year if he wants to do
the same thing, I'll drive him.

Speaker 4 (17:23):
Ok Yeah, I think it loses its meaning.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
Doesn't Yeah, I don't know how he did it. What
meaning is that? Well?

Speaker 5 (17:30):
I think the whole point of it was to show
that once you set your mind on something, because it
has something to do with when they lost their show
up in the Bay Area, that they rallied and came
back five years later and got the show here with
iHeart and they've gone syndicated and on the twenty first
of April, they're taking over California Adventure for their listeners.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Oh that's right.

Speaker 4 (17:52):
Celebrate putting the show back together.

and you never forget the guy's name.

one of the youngest students admitted to the Juilliard School's acting.

I took my wife to Las Vegas and got her
pretty drunk. That was years ago, and I said, hey,
I got tickets an anniversary for Neil Diamond and she goes, oh,
I love Neil Diamonds. We got bombed. We were about
eight hundred rows back because that was pretty cheap with
the tickets, and she goes, oh, I'm going down to
the marsh pit to dance.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, you stay.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Here, You stay here and stay here with me because
I'm a little a buzz and she goes, no, I'm
going to dance. She goes down to dance in the
mosh pit in the front. She comes back with her heels,
her shoes off, holding them over her shoulder. She goes,
let's go, I go.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
What do you mean? She goes, you know that's not
Neil Diamond. That's surreal Neil.

Speaker 4 (21:48):
It's a real Neil.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
That's a fake Neil Diamond band. You probably got comp
tickets for losing so much money, and you tried to
bs me into believing that was Neil Diamond.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
Oh, she knew you well early.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
She knew she.

Speaker 9 (22:02):
Nailed me and heat, starring opposite Robert De Niro and
Al Pacino. In nineteen ninety five, Kilmer took on his
biggest role yet, the Caped Crusader in Batman Forever.

Speaker 2 (22:14):
Oh right, Batman Forever? What where did that fall?

Speaker 1 (22:17):
In?

Speaker 2 (22:17):
Line?

Speaker 1 (22:18):
Was that in the first three, four, five, ten was
the top twenty of Batman four Probably kof.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
Swayin could have given his life for your family, he
would have.

Speaker 9 (22:28):
The movie was a hit, though Kilmer did not play
Batman again, the method actor famously going to great lengths
for his roles. In nineteen ninety six, talking about his
bad boy image on Today.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
Michael Douglas helped me to understand.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Although it's kind of.

Speaker 8 (22:44):
Sadd name, but he said, really, it's a compliment.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
If you get.

Speaker 7 (22:51):
They don't write about people they are not interested in.

Speaker 9 (22:53):
He faced health struggles in later years, diagnosed with throat
cancer in twenty fourteen. Though he recovered after several operations,
his voice was never the same. In twenty twenty one,
he reflected on his career in the documentary that Kilmer

(23:14):
had forged on staying in the Hollywood Mix. His most
memorable later role came alongside an old.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
Friend, who's the better violot You and Me?

Speaker 9 (23:25):
Top Gun Maverick would be Kilmer's last appearance on screen.
Perhaps the most famous line Kilmer ever delivered was from Tombstone,
when he said I'm your Huckleberry. That was actually the
title of his memoir. In it, he admitted he did
not initially want the role of Iceman in Top Gun,
saying he didn't really care about the film and felt
more deflated than inflated.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
When he got the part.

Speaker 9 (23:48):
Obviously, in the end it worked out well for him.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
How about your career is so great that you get
a big, huge part with Tom Cruise and your reaction
is deflation. Ah Christ, Now I got to do this.
How do I get out of this?

Speaker 2 (24:04):
God? That's some career man.

Speaker 7 (24:06):
A couple of interesting things about him. He grew up
in the valley. He went to Chatsworth High School. Oh
that's cool, and he like with classmates like Kevin Spacey.

Speaker 2 (24:16):
Wow, is that what a classmate it is? How old
is he? Sixty five or sixty five?

Speaker 4 (24:21):
Sixty five?

Speaker 1 (24:22):
All right, So he graduated probably in the late seventies
from Chatsworth.

Speaker 7 (24:27):
Well, and his younger brother died drowned in a jacuzzi
in nineteen seventy seven. Oh it's horrib Yeah, and it
kind of really messed up, but you said it kind
of went away mentally for a while and then came back.
And the first thing his first big hit was Top Secret,
the comedy spoof like that was the Airport Movies but
for Spies, and he released where he played like a
rock and roll singer, And he actually released an album

(24:48):
of all the songs that he sang in the movie
under the name of the character that he played, Nick Rivers.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Oh that's kind of cool. Yeah, Oh that's excellent. Yeah bad,
that's too bad. That's pretty sad. Well, you be beat
you know, a throat cancer you know once and then
pneumonia got him.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Man, let's too bad.

Speaker 4 (27:48):
Are you going?

Speaker 2 (27:49):
No?

Speaker 1 (27:51):
Why because I I I really only have two days
off every week, and last week there were two.

Speaker 4 (28:02):
Station events a day off last week.

Speaker 1 (28:04):
Yeah, there was station event on Saturday and Sunday, which
I love both of them. There's a station event this Saturday,
you know with Santa Nita and so Sunday. It will
be my first day off in four in well, let
me see five, six, seven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen fifty in

(28:24):
sixteen days.

Speaker 4 (28:25):
No, you're right, I give you. I give you that.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Sixteen days.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
That's a lot.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Yeah, to have it, you know, baby, you got it
once in a month.

Speaker 4 (28:33):
You did the speaking engagement.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
That was in Huntington Beach. Yes, that's right.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
I got another one coming up for LAPD on April seventeenth. Wow, busy,
you know how I can get out of all those
cop events. Just one one high speed chase that you're in.

Speaker 2 (28:50):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Cops go to pull me over, I hit the accelerator,
give them the middle finger, and I'm out.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
You're done.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Those cops will never bang on that door again. But
you don't want to do that. No, it might be
interesting though, you know, I mean calling into the station.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
He's me on the five. Tell these guys to back off.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
For like, if you're listening Conway, turn on your head nuts.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
I've got nine kids in here. Don't pit me. How
do you have nine kids in there? Just trust me.
I got nine kids in here, don't pit me.

Speaker 4 (29:21):
Are you going to text them the middle finger while
you're out running them?

Speaker 1 (29:25):
You know what I always thought it would be cool
is to get a white van. I don't know why
to sb white, but it has to be like a
panel van where you can't see the inside, and then
literally take all the seats out, take the interior out,
and put in a three hundred gallon tank. You can
fit a three or four hundred gallon tank in there
if you just you know, if you took all the
seats out, everything out, and you could build a four

(29:46):
hundred gallon tank inside a white van. Then you do
a rolling stop in Tarzana and you make them chase
you to Pittsburgh.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
That would be great across country.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
And they don't want to pit you because you're four
hundre gallons of gas and that could explode. And then
you also say you got nine kids in there, and
they don't want to pit nine kids, so they start
chasing you from Tarzana and they catch up to you
in Pittsburgh.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
That, wow, would be great television.

Speaker 4 (30:16):
And you have listened to the Conway Show four to seven.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
That's right, that would be great television.

Speaker 1 (30:21):
You know, I almost all thought it would be another
It would be another great chase idea. If you're opening
up a strip bar in LA. You get one of
those double decker buses that have you know that the
Lakers use whenever they win the Open Championship. Yeah, and
you put twenty of your best gals on that float,

(30:41):
you know, and music, and then you run away from
the cops and on the side of that bus is
the name of the new strip bar. That's great publicity.
That would work. Now you wouldn't arrest all the gals
because they wouldn't be in on it. You would just
arrest the driver, and you paved that driver once he
got out of jail one hundred thousand dollars for the publicity.

(31:05):
So I'm thinking, you know, I'm a thinking man's thinker,
and I think I'm on top of this.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
Yeah, yeah, the great ideas.

Speaker 2 (31:12):
I think it is a great idea.

Speaker 4 (31:13):
Yes, it's awesome.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
Yeah, it's fantastic. All right, we had we We're gonna
have menace on it. Sometime he walked from Burbank to Disneyland.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
I watched, you know, Belly, I was on Instagram watching.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
Part of that, the end of it, Yeah, the end
of it, and it was it was kind of a
cool deal.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
I couldn't believe he did that. I thought, like.

Speaker 5 (31:33):
Steph Fush, I thought he think great like radio things.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Yes, right, that's right.

Speaker 4 (31:38):
No, and everyone here is talking about it.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
So it's Krozer, what are you doing next Tuesday? You
meete aside from working here, maybe walk into Disneyland, Bellot,
you have him walk. We should have to walk to Universal.
You can get there like in twenty minutes. It's a
forty minutes honor.

Speaker 7 (31:56):
When I had my staycation last week, I took the
Metro League into La Union and walked all the way
into Chinatown, walked all the way up to Grand Central
to Market, then walk to Bunker Hill to the Conway.

Speaker 1 (32:09):
Show, Little Tokyo, all walked it. Yeah, I got an idea, Belly. Oh,
I need to run it by you first so we
don't get sued. Okay, thank you. All Right, during the break,
I'm gonna tell Belly of the idea. She gives me
the Okay, I'm going to tell you that I got
a great.

Speaker 4 (32:24):
Likely won't be giving me okay, but all right.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
I'm gonna say it anyway.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
Then it's gonna be a it'll be a way to
get his publicity in the sort of in the same
vein as Menace from The Woody Show. Moving back, I'll
tell you about Okay, We're live on KFI AM six
