if you're just getting off work now, all right, all right.
I have prepared this as an homage, a prepared statement
(08:38):
to the summer that was. It is a prepared statement,
and this is all I got today. Everything else is
somebody else's problem. Football is upon us, foodball, and August
is hard.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
We are at the best rock and party in AM
radio's history.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
After haters. We don't even have a budget for our
summer tour. And look around you.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
It is a wonderful thing to see everybody here together,
locking arms and camaraderie for great sports.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Talk, great sports talk.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Now.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
This summer, like every summer or every day of every
human life, is full of ups and downs. And one
thing that has really worked as far as a big
up this summer, in my opinion, has been our connection
this summer and our love for one of the world's
greatest ever sitcoms for women so young, so different, no
parents around, living under missus Garrett's roof. Of course, I'm
(09:36):
talking about the facts of life, that's right, And let's
be honest. The world never seems to be living up
to your dreams. If you know what I mean, I
know exactly what you mean. Every summer is hard. Election
years are harder.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
It's hard.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
But our tour this year has been very gratifying, and
I would liken each stop so far to a certain
character in the Facts of Life.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
The tour events each seemed to me.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Like one of the new bile, sexually curious characters on
the Facts of Life, much like we were when we
watched the show together. Well, when it first came out,
we were new bile and sexually curious. When Matt and
I were watching reruns the other night, breathing.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Heavily, new bile, sexually curious, not new bile, but certainly
sexually curious. Now, like Matt and I, the Facts of
Life women are gray and old. But first up, where
were we? We were in Buena Park to start the
summer tour at the Rock and Bruce and that was
just like two D compact, sassy, plenty of pigment, and young.
(11:04):
It was our very first event, so youthful. Jason Negro
came the youth football and like Tuty, we have a
long term relationship with Rock and Bruce and Knots and
Buyna park Tuty, if you remember, was waiting till marriage.
(11:27):
And then we had to go to brew Reacts, not once,
but twice, and that to me was like the two
abundant titons of Missus Garrett, the buxom, redheaded matronly lady
that housed the young girls. We sucked her right breast dry.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Did the second stop first appearance, yes, and then we
had Mark Robiza On and Bobby Valentine if you remember,
And then.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
We had to go suckle her left because we liked
the girls like orphans.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
We were booted from our home.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
We're absolutely cast out into the streets by Campsite Brewing.
They betrayed us like Judas.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Who is right?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
We were betrayed like Judas Woo is right. They didn't
want to open their doors to you people. That's what
it was.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
We had to go back to Missus Garrett's teton in
her orphanage and suckle and we are grateful, thank you
twice to Brewery.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
X and lrip.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
To Missus Garrett.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
Okay Rock and Bruce el Segundo right was between Missus
Garrett's memories and that was Joe I was thinking, Joe sure,
Joe el Segundo, rough and tumble right, bad hair, perhaps
knows the company of a woman, but genuine and cool
(12:56):
and like Joe deep down. When you get to the structure,
elsa Gundo's got a great body.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Else a Gundo. It's Mayberry.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
It is underrated and it is well located. Eric Musselman
was on Gene Simmons. Brendan Rice was great, Steve Sacks.
And then we went to Tarantula Hill. Yes, Natalie an
easy lover Thousand Oaks. We have many white listeners among
(13:31):
Laassa in Thousand Oaks. Natalie the first of the gang
to lose her virginity, always full, always happy.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Jonas don McClane that Sean Foster wasn't ready and he canceled.
Thank you, Natalie, you are attractive, kurvy and outspoken.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Then here, here we are the Van's headquarters, the Vans, the.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Unattainable Blair. Vans is the unattainable Blair. Braddy hot, absolutely infuriating.
She's what you want to be inside of, like the
Vans headquarters.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
But there is security, no doubt, and.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
That's the thing. Watching the facts of life for years
and years and years, Blair was unattainable and upsetting.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
To see she was so eighties hot. She was so
hot it pissed you off. Just like Vans.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
It was so cool you wanted all the clothes. All
the cool kids had it.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
He's so hot.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
But because of Steve Van Dorn, because of our relationship
with one of the greatest brands in the history of
the world that represents our area in southern California so well.
Steve Van Dorn is our key to the unattainable dream Man.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Wow Man, freaked up Blair.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
This is Blair Shoes, Brewery X, Jeannie with the big Weenie,
Mister Van Dorn, Swag, everybody with the canvas bag. All
of our prizes, the kind of prizes that you would
find where in Blair's secret garden. So to recap Buena
(15:39):
Park two d hold On number two, Brewery X, Double Up, Missus,
Garrett el Segundo, very underrated, Joe, Tarantula Hill and Vans,
(16:04):
God bless Vans. The unattainable Blair. Blair needs to be
taught a lesson, and she will be taught a lesson today.

and every year now the finale that he hosts have
made this the crown jewel of LA Radio in any

Speaker 1 (19:12):
It's the only thing that makes us cool is our
association with Steve van Dorn.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
How Steve van Dorn.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Since nineteen sixty six, the Van's family has been purveyors
of everything cool and summertime and wintertime and spring and
fall in our beautiful area. Nothing embodies Southern California like Vans.
And nobody is more of a philanthrope. Nobody's better to people,
(19:43):
Nobody is more giving and almost embarrassingly generous. Nobody is
like Steve Van Dorn, and we sure are grateful for
him on your Southern California Toyota.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Dealer Celebrity headset.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
He's got a very very special and famous artist that
he's touring right now. They just got back from beautiful
Parents for the Olympics, and Robert Vargas is the name
of the artist, and he just did I think it's
going to go for at least two three hundred thousand dollars.
It took about a half hour, a charcoal likeness of
(20:17):
our boss. Yeah, don fifteen minutes Robert. So, first of all,
welcome to Steve Van Dorn, Robert Vargas the artist.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Tell us what you guys have been up to.
Speaker 6 (20:26):
What you've been doing, Steve, We've been traveling all summer.
Robert was on a trip.
Speaker 4 (20:29):
We went out to beautiful Shanghai where we had an
Anthony Van Egan launch.
Speaker 6 (20:34):
We went from.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
There for three or four days off to Hanoi where
our factories are in Vietnam.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Let's go.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
We got to make our own shoes and stuff those
days Vietnam Christmas.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
And then we went on over to Tokyo and Robert
go to all of these.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Robert went to all.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Of these with me.
Speaker 6 (20:48):
Yes, he was painting everywhere there.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
We went over to Tokyo and got picked up with
two low riders convertibles span of Rolls Royce which Tony
Alva jumped in that one right away, and then onto Soul, Korea.
Was eleven days of travel there. Just before then we
went out to Europe and traveled all over Europe. Krish
Nasoi was on both both trips. He's supposed to be
hearing a little bit, but just got to go and
cheer on the athletes skaters in Paris. For the park,
(21:15):
the park is with us transitions versus street with those
guys are just super talented going down rails and stairs
and doing tricks. The park is a little bit more transition.
And out there in the where the barbecue is is
a big picture of Kakona. She got a silver medal
in the Olympics wearing Van's shoes so proper.
Speaker 6 (21:34):
Yeah, Kakona, and then we have Arisa. Arissa fourteen years
old from Australia won the gold medal.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
There we go.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Hey, no, now, how much does he make for you?
How much Arnt do you have to produce every day, Robert,
to go on a trip like that? I mean, how
much do you have to bang out every day?
Speaker 3 (21:52):
You know? How many Don Martin caricatures do you have
to make to pay your way on a trip than
o caricatures?
Speaker 7 (21:57):
It's more of like Brint making art to the people.
And uh, you know it's great to draw all of
our athletes out there on the road. And you know,
it's really a lifestyle. If you're into the vans, you're
into the art, you're into the music, into petries of money.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Right, Yeah, they're a bit of an acquired case, Robert,
if we may, if we may be self centered for
a moment, if we may be self centered and narcissistic,
because we never are for a moment. I'm on this show.
Could you please share with us because as we both
entered our boss el Hefe, Don Martin was seated and
was the subject of a work of art. As far
(22:33):
as subjects go, live subjects. How would you rate our boss,
his stoic, intense look that never wavered for what seemed
like about a half hour, and the work of art
that you were able to create with him as your muse.
Speaker 7 (22:48):
I mean, obviously it ranked second to Steve Van Doren
im event, but you know we're connected. That portrait was,
you know, kind of came together, drew itself. You know,
Don's done an interesting guy.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yes, schot Will suggests it right. Were you intimidated by this?
Did you feel like he was trying to intimidate you
with his scholl? We were spirit dancing.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
It was we're here, okay, spirit dancing. Spirit dance.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Its Don Martin, That's what it's.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
The Robert Vargas on Instagram, the Robert Vargas. If you
want to follow the wonderful art, you could check us
out right now. We're on YouTube and Facebook and x
and all of that. You know, just coming from the
Olympics and seeing all that stuff Steve Stean that's skateboarding
and all that, Uh, how does it rate with the
stuff that you guys brought up in skateboarding and what
(23:38):
you've created. Does it look like skateboarding in the Olympics?
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
I know the head of the Skateboard Association Worldwide from
Italy came up and from Tokyo. Was the first time
of the Olympics head skateboarding. The number two on social
media viewed was soccer, which is football number one with skateboarding.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
Wow, we'll see how these Olympics did.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
I'm sure because I saw the crowd of ten or
twelve thousand people the days I was there with my
daughter Christy Christian Assoy in Sierra But we got to
have a spectacular event. I got to work the nineteen
eighty four Olympics when it was in Los Angeles, and
this is the first Olympic I got to go and
actually participate as a spectator and it was amazing.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
The people in Paris did a fantastic job.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
Robert goes all over the world when I go, because
he interacts with people. And he'll be sitting at a
restaurant and a waitress will come up and he'll just
take her arm and all of a sudden, do my portrait,
Christian's portrait, Tony's portrait.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
On their arm, whether Sephie or sometimes.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
To plate and it's got some chocolate, anything he finds
and he just sits here and makes a beautiful design.
But I'll let you tell him what he did in
downtown Los Angeles just recently, and he's working on the
world's biggest mural in downtown Los Angeles.
Speaker 7 (24:59):
What have we got, Robert, Well, some of you may
know I did paint the O Tawny mural and little Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
We all know that mural, Little Tokyo. It is beautiful
Little Tokyo, not to be confused with Chinatown. Right, there's
a Mookie Betts mural there, not nearly as nice.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Thank you for that.
Speaker 7 (25:17):
And there's an ar component where when you scan a
QR code you can actually see the mural swing, which
is a precursor to all the amazing things he's doing
right now. Uh, the Autonomyo right on First Street and
coming up on September eighth, I will be throwing out
the first pitch.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
There we go.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
Radio and also just down the street from there, I
Pursing Square. I'm painting the largest mural in the world
by one artist, which will be it's gonna be a
Guinness World Record and it's set to be completed later
this year.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
At at Persons right by the Angel's Flight that's right,
and uh.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
And the Biltmore Hotel I down there Johns Square. Oh yeah, yeah,
we used to stay there when I played football. What
is that mural? Can you give us a little hint?
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Yeah? Too much? Right, there'll be a big revealing all that.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Well, it's painted.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
You're not behind a giant.
Speaker 6 (26:03):
No, no, because I means exactly is that scaffolding? I
went up about the seventh floor? Yeah, scraffling? Whoa, Yeah, some.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
Guys working for you, like Michael Angelo. No is this
means just solo.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
He's completely freehand, no grids, no projections, brush.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Steve, you talked about, you talked about taking Christian with you,
and you've been great. Christian has been a great partner
with us every summer Tory. He always shows up, signs autographs,
takes photos. One of the all time great skateboarders in
the history of the sport.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
It is unique.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
It is a unique sport where Christian can dominate. In
the mid eighties through the mid nineties into two thousand,
he and Tony Hawk are out there and they are
still putting on an exhibition, skating at an incredibly high level.
How are they received? How is Christian received when he
gets to France?
Speaker 2 (26:51):
And the Olympics.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
So first vans people ask me and my daughter if
we would go and represent, and just I had to
behave myself, but as you can't promote hands over there,
so my daughter was kind of watching me and I said,
you know what, Christian actually had two girls, more than
two girls and the Olympics and one got first gold medal.
Speaker 6 (27:09):
That rode his board as well as fourth and so
I know Christian will get anywhere any place. He's never
waited in a line.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
So when he got there our first day going to practice,
he had a special thing. He's on the course. Okay, right,
he's on the course and they're having practice and afterward
he starts riding and Atiba and Bryce Knight's the best
photographers for skating in the world are.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Taking pictures of him and he's getting laid back.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
So Tony Hawk was there because he was doing a
lot of just stands things, so that had Tony.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Go and start doing more things. But Christian just happened.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
He's received great and he's a great ambassador, a really
really great person, and we love traveling with him wherever
we go.
Speaker 6 (27:47):
You know, we made up the special shoes here Competus and.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Is there.
Speaker 6 (27:53):
Somebody that's a nine and a half out there, nine
and a half, nine and a half.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Rain shirt right here?
Speaker 6 (27:59):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
That guy's name little Lord faunt Leroy. Right, this is
a Cinderella story. Let's see that nine and a half.
All right, congratulations, sir.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
How about a lady.
Speaker 6 (28:09):
Seven and a half. Come on, lady at her? I
owe you, come on, come on, okay, come on down.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, there we go.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Yeah, we saw you've danced the fast time.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
These guys do things to organize. I just like winging it. Okay,
So we got a men's ten and a half.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Come on there we go. All right, Oh, door, the
door with shade, there we go. You throw them open, Steve,
Absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 6 (28:37):
That's good.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
We're giving away a whole bunch of those shoes. We
have plenty more prices to give away.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Last thing I gotta ask you, Steve, because you mentioned
you mentioned the Olympics coming, uh, how do we get
rid of Ralph Lauren and outfit everybody in vance for
center in California.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
We gotta work for it for twenty twenty eight and stuff,
that's for sure. But it was a pleasure be over there,
And just so you know, people really don't know it
because I didn't get to get to the press because
I had to behave myself.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
But the park, which was.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
One of the two disciplines in skateboarding, we created thirteen
years ago doing the Combe Pole in our indoor skate
park and then went to Huntington Beach at the Van's
US Open and built a park that used to be
in Marseille, France, and we did that for the next
eight years as well as have a park series.
Speaker 6 (29:24):
So Park whenever you hear park skateboarding.
Speaker 4 (29:27):
All of those young people that were in the contest
all came to Van's events and we actually created that's
super proud of that.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Well proud of you, Steve, and thank you so much
our host.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Thank you to Robert Gargas, one of the great artists
in California and beyond, traveling the world with Steve doing
the big mural by Pursing Square and the great giant
mural of Otani Yes Little Tokyo.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Bless you both. Thank you so much, Steve, great ni.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
You absolutely Steve. We love you. It's the Robert Vargas

Speaker 3 (29:57):
Check out all the work if you make it out
here to the Van's head to be sure to check
out the piece that he did of our boss, the
stoic slash and timid caricature, Dona. It's not a caricature.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
It connected. Their souls connected.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
It was a beautiful moment that lasted forty five minutes.
Don was so man spread and so focused on what
was happening. You really have to You got to put
your eyes on it to feel the intensity of what
was going on there for a while. Now she has arrived, Pete,
she has arrived. She will join us in the very
next segment. She will hang out for a little while.
(30:32):
We still have plenty of prizes to give away. There
is an opportunity for you to get here and still
qualify to be the final finalist to win the eleven
thousand dollars. But you must make it here. In the
next nineteen minutes, we will cut off the eleven thousand
dollars entries.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
I believe that is correct.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
At four m Yes, four PM, the early people didn't
win anything. Well tonight, Slash today the early people are
going to win.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
The late will be punished exactly right, damn it.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
And we'll be right back with Jenny with a big
weenie on the Petrosen Money Show live from beautiful vans
in Costa Mesa. Get a big thank you in a
fast Times band during the break. It's not just a
(31:21):
petros In Money Show Summer Tour stop live broadcast, but
we have got live music every single break. Some would say,
at least to people shaking their ass, they just can't
deny the beat.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Then we got it all in their feet.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
We got Brewery X, we have food, we have ice cream,
we have water which is life giving and important. We
have Ito enz Oi ocha green tea, and we have
the centerpiece of every Petrosen Money Summer Tour, our guests
on your Southern California Toyota Dealer super Celebrity. I own
(31:57):
a major sports franchise that is one of the most
recognized on Earth. Headset the one and only Genie with
a big Weenie boy.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
She is the cowner of the Los Angeles Lakers, one
of the most powerful and beloved sports people in the
city of Los Angeles. And she doesn't take any asks
from anybody, and she comes and joins us once every
year for our show, and we could not be more grateful.
Speaker 3 (32:29):
It's always great to be together. Thank you for doing it.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Genie.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
We heard the traffic wasn't easy.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
I'm here, Yeah, exactly right, perfectly put. You've made it
and you spread yourself out. That's the nice thing.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
You've come to Buena Park, You've come to a thousand oaks.
Now you've come down to Coasta Mesa. You don't come
to the same stop. That's the closest. She could come
to El Segundo and it would take her five minutes.
It's like a preside two or for Instead, she comes
all the way down to Coasta Mesa on a Thursday
to hang out with you people.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
And God, we love you for it. Thank you so much, Genie.
You know, I.
Speaker 8 (33:04):
Recognize a lot of the people here. It's like people
come and this is a thing.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, so like eleven years right exactly.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
You live by the marina, you know, so you go
out there and you see the boats and sometimes the
same barnacles are stuck to the bottom of those boats.
Like Matt and I, we collect these these barnacles over
the years and they add character to our show. Now,
go ahead, go in the bathroom and look in the
mirror and say, am I a barnacle?
Speaker 2 (33:34):
That's a compliment. I believe it or not now, Jemmie.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Every year, the team makes global news. Every year.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Everything happening is always triple magnified because it's the Los
Angeles Lakers. Was this summer very different than other summers.
There was a little bit of a gap between the
head coaching higher But it feels like every year we
talk to you as something unique is going on and
there's been some big story in the media.
Speaker 8 (33:59):
Yeah, you know, I think I'm excited about our new coach,
JJ Reddick, you know, and I could sit here and
tell you all these you know, how great it's going
to be basketball wise, but you know, I really want
the opportunity just for the team to play basketball and
that will tell the story. But we're excited about our
(34:21):
draft picks, Dalton Connect who we didn't think would be
available for Connect at the seventeenth pick, and of course
Brownie James, who played at USC. So we're excited about our.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Young CLA station.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
That's all that. That's all that is there, No, that's true.
Speaker 8 (34:40):
UCLA is our health partner, so.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
So you know, so start with start with JJ Reddick.
It's a it's a bold hire. He's never coached at
any level save his nine year old son in the
city of New York.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
What led to that way?
Speaker 3 (34:52):
He obviously must have absolutely knocked it out in the interview,
And there was something that you saw there that made
you comfortable handing the keys to this franchise over to
him as a coach.
Speaker 8 (35:01):
Yeah, you know we wanted to, you know, kind of think,
you know, a different way. Really, you know, he's got
a vision. You know, I'm not comfortable talking about the basketball.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Kind of stuff, but could you have to sign off?
I don't like he must have impressed you in some
way in the interview.
Speaker 8 (35:19):
Process, absolutely, you know, we we you know, we were
looking for a candidate that would bring something different and
really invest in developing young players. And you know, JJ's
the right person for us. And you know, again, I
just want the work to really speak for itself, So
(35:40):
I don't want to hype it and say, like, you know,
it's going to be a home run. We have to,
you know, give him time to establish what he wants
to establish. And I'm really impressed with his staff. They've
been there.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
You know.
Speaker 8 (35:55):
Right now it's not mandatory for the players to come
in and practice, but players are coming in and working
out the coaching staff with Nate McMillan and Scottie Brooks.
There's a lot of experience that will be there for
him to, you know, make that adjustment to being a
head coach, but certainly a twelve year career in the league.
(36:18):
He's got a lot of experience. He knows what this
league's about, and I think he'll be a great leader.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
So when you when you write a check for the
amount of money you wrote a check for to Lebron James,
and you think about how old he is and how
many miles are on those legs, and then he says,
I want to play in the Olympics. And then you
watch the Olympics and you see their heavy minutes, their
hard minutes, their intense minutes. Do you, and I would
assume you talk to other governors of franchises about how
(36:43):
you guys feel about these, you know, these assets of
yours that are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Is
there any issue with that whatsoever? Any concern about watching
him play and banging around in those gold medal metal
games and everything that's happening.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
I think, you know, I.
Speaker 8 (36:59):
Think you know, he's so competitive, it's really got to
be something that he wants to do, and we always
support our players in the decisions that they make in
regards to playing for their national team or not. And uh,
you know it was something that was important to Lebron.
And yes he is, you know, our our highest paid player,
(37:20):
but he's still a bargain to me. You know, I
think he's he's uh, he's absolutely amazing.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
He's in the conversation, what do you mean.
Speaker 8 (37:29):
You know, because we're a salary cap league, you know,
there's only so much that we can pay him. And
you know, he.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Brings us, you know, the notoriety.
Speaker 8 (37:40):
In the league, but also internationally, he's he's a huge star,
and you know he's he's a great leader for this
team and what he does for our young players, what
he does for the community.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
You know, we're just we're proud to be partners with them.
Speaker 8 (37:57):
And and you know it's the same as you know,
Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant were, you know, because we're
in a capped league, you know, they probably should have
been paid, you know, twice as what they get, but
you know we can only pay him the maximum.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Dark Well, thank goodness, listen, there are lake. It's not
just the Genie Bus summer tour year and in year
out on the Petrosen Money Show. There's six Laker preseason games.
Two in the Desert with old Rickley Fred out there
and at the New Arena out there. There's one in
Milwaukee for the old school types, yeah, the good Earth.
(38:36):
There's one in Vegas at Tea Mobile, one in Phoenix,
and one in San Francisco versus the Warriors. The Lakers
tip off the regular season October twenty second versus the
Minnesota Tea Wolves.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
You know, Genie, you've.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
Been on a front seat to the entire success and
a big part of the success of the Laker organization
since you were in college or college age.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
Magic. You mentioned highest paid player, Shaq was like that,
Kolbe was like that. Now, you guys are connected to
another brand in Lebron. How different is he than maybe
some of those other guys. How different is the league
when you every different superstar has a different kind of
vibe and the league is different when you have them
(39:21):
on your team.
Speaker 8 (39:23):
You know, that's I guess that's the beauty of it
is that every year it's different. And you know, certainly
Lebron is a force to be reckoned with. He has
you know, made Laker Nation proud by bringing us our
seventeenth championship. Certainly we were hoping for number eighteen before
(39:43):
the Celtics won this off season.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
But there you go, read me to the crowd, thrill
the red meat to the crowd. Geenie, get the chill,
get those booze. You didn't call him.
Speaker 1 (39:54):
Up and congratulate him or send him some shamrocks or
anything like anyway to go?
Speaker 2 (39:58):
No, I did not.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Yeah, so, but you're forced Wick to sell the team.
All right, you're done?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
Get out?
Speaker 8 (40:04):
No, I mean you know it's it's you know, the
idea that the Celtics are for sale, that Mark Cuban
is no longer right, you know, the in control of
the Dallas Mavericks.
Speaker 3 (40:15):
Who shows up when the Mavericks are at the table,
some guy with a big hat.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Now it's it's.
Speaker 8 (40:24):
But you know Mark is so closely associated with the Mavericks.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
But I guess also, shark to you're close.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
You're close with Mark, right, yeah so when and you're
close with Wick, I think as well. So when those
two guys sell, what do you think, like when you
hear about what they're getting, what they're set why they're
getting out all that sort of stuff, and do you
do people come to you and say, Jeanie, uh like,
is there any of that that's going on with the Lakers?
Or at least they just ask you, like, why are
these two guys selling that we would have never thought
(40:51):
with someone?
Speaker 8 (40:52):
I mean, you also have Michael Jordan who sold his
and you know, I think that they're just people that
are always looking to challenge themselves and something else. So certainly,
you know, Wick has had his success as the governor
of the Celtics, winning championships, and you know it's maybe
(41:13):
he wants to do something different.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
And same with Mark.
Speaker 8 (41:16):
You know, he's done a lot for lowering the cost
of prescription drugs for people, and you know, and I
expect him to continue to do more and more now
that he doesn't have to worry about the day of.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
Life of public service, right exactly? Can you stick around?
Speaker 3 (41:34):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (41:34):
All right? Well for so long?
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Begetias, I'm not going to put it back on our own.
Hang out for a little while. We're here until six o'clock.
Jeannie is going to be here for another segment at least,
and we continue to give away prizes every single segment.
Fast Times continues to perform every single break. It's filling up,
but there's still plenty of space. Are you going to
go to the Journey show tonight?
Speaker 2 (41:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (41:58):
No, Journey to Death Leopard. Oh it's Sunday, Sunday. Are
you going Journey Death Leopard? Steve miller Band I've.

rove and touching squeeze very soulfully. After another hour of

the handle. Stream it there if you cannot make it here.
But if you can make it here, it is a giant,
(08:18):
wide open courtyard, bleacher seating, folding chairs, tables, standing room
and we got beers, Vodkas, waters and food and ice cream.
We'd love to have you come on out. Still plenty
of room for you all to come on out here
if you're just getting off work now, all right, all right.
I have prepared this as an homage, a prepared statement
(08:38):
to the summer that was. It is a prepared statement,
and this is all I got today. Everything else is
somebody else's problem. Football is upon us, foodball, and August
is hard.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
We are at the best rock and party in AM
radio's history.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
After haters. We don't even have a budget for our
summer tour. And look around you.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
It is a wonderful thing to see everybody here together,
locking arms and camaraderie for great sports.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Talk, great sports talk.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Now.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
This summer, like every summer or every day of every
human life, is full of ups and downs. And one
thing that has really worked as far as a big
up this summer, in my opinion, has been our connection
this summer and our love for one of the world's
greatest ever sitcoms for women so young, so different, no
parents around, living under missus Garrett's roof. Of course, I'm
(09:36):
talking about the facts of life, that's right, And let's
be honest. The world never seems to be living up
to your dreams. If you know what I mean, I
know exactly what you mean. Every summer is hard. Election
years are harder.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
It's hard.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
But our tour this year has been very gratifying, and
I would liken each stop so far to a certain
character in the Facts of Life.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (10:10):
The tour events each seemed to me.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Like one of the new bile, sexually curious characters on
the Facts of Life, much like we were when we
watched the show together. Well, when it first came out,
we were new bile and sexually curious. When Matt and
I were watching reruns the other night, breathing.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
Heavily, new bile, sexually curious, not new bile, but certainly
sexually curious. Now, like Matt and I, the Facts of
Life women are gray and old. But first up, where
were we? We were in Buena Park to start the
summer tour at the Rock and Bruce and that was
just like two D compact, sassy, plenty of pigment, and young.
(11:04):
It was our very first event, so youthful. Jason Negro
came the youth football and like Tuty, we have a
long term relationship with Rock and Bruce and Knots and
Buyna park Tuty, if you remember, was waiting till marriage.
(11:27):
And then we had to go to brew Reacts, not once,
but twice, and that to me was like the two
abundant titons of Missus Garrett, the buxom, redheaded matronly lady
that housed the young girls. We sucked her right breast dry.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Did the second stop first appearance, yes, and then we
had Mark Robiza On and Bobby Valentine if you remember,
And then.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
We had to go suckle her left because we liked
the girls like orphans.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
We were booted from our home.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
We're absolutely cast out into the streets by Campsite Brewing.
They betrayed us like Judas.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Who is right?
Speaker 3 (12:16):
We were betrayed like Judas Woo is right. They didn't
want to open their doors to you people. That's what
it was.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
We had to go back to Missus Garrett's teton in
her orphanage and suckle and we are grateful, thank you
twice to Brewery.
Speaker 3 (12:32):
X and lrip.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
To Missus Garrett.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
Okay Rock and Bruce el Segundo right was between Missus
Garrett's memories and that was Joe I was thinking, Joe sure,
Joe el Segundo, rough and tumble right, bad hair, perhaps
knows the company of a woman, but genuine and cool
(12:56):
and like Joe deep down. When you get to the structure,
elsa Gundo's got a great body.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Else a Gundo. It's Mayberry.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
It is underrated and it is well located. Eric Musselman
was on Gene Simmons. Brendan Rice was great, Steve Sacks.
And then we went to Tarantula Hill. Yes, Natalie an
easy lover Thousand Oaks. We have many white listeners among
(13:31):
Laassa in Thousand Oaks. Natalie the first of the gang
to lose her virginity, always full, always happy.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Jonas don McClane that Sean Foster wasn't ready and he canceled.
Thank you, Natalie, you are attractive, kurvy and outspoken.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Then here, here we are the Van's headquarters, the Vans, the.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Unattainable Blair. Vans is the unattainable Blair. Braddy hot, absolutely infuriating.
She's what you want to be inside of, like the
Vans headquarters.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
But there is security, no doubt, and.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
That's the thing. Watching the facts of life for years
and years and years, Blair was unattainable and upsetting.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
To see she was so eighties hot. She was so
hot it pissed you off. Just like Vans.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
It was so cool you wanted all the clothes. All
the cool kids had it.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
He's so hot.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
But because of Steve Van Dorn, because of our relationship
with one of the greatest brands in the history of
the world that represents our area in southern California so well.
Steve Van Dorn is our key to the unattainable dream Man.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Wow Man, freaked up Blair.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
This is Blair Shoes, Brewery X, Jeannie with the big Weenie,
Mister Van Dorn, Swag, everybody with the canvas bag. All
of our prizes, the kind of prizes that you would
find where in Blair's secret garden. So to recap Buena
(15:39):
Park two d hold On number two, Brewery X, Double Up, Missus,
Garrett el Segundo, very underrated, Joe, Tarantula Hill and Vans,
(16:04):
God bless Vans. The unattainable Blair. Blair needs to be
taught a lesson, and she will be taught a lesson today.
You're gonna get it, get it here, get it tonight,
blairna get it. Thank you Blair, and thank you, everybody,

Speaker 2 (18:52):
Pee.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
I don't know if we could pull this thing off
year after year if it's not for our next guest,
I mean the guests that he is delivered, The vibe
that he has helped us create for the summer tour
and every year now the finale that he hosts have
made this the crown jewel of LA Radio in any
given calendar year.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
It's the only thing that makes us cool is our
association with Steve van Dorn.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
How Steve van Dorn.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Since nineteen sixty six, the Van's family has been purveyors
of everything cool and summertime and wintertime and spring and
fall in our beautiful area. Nothing embodies Southern California like Vans.
And nobody is more of a philanthrope. Nobody's better to people,
(19:43):
Nobody is more giving and almost embarrassingly generous. Nobody is
like Steve Van Dorn, and we sure are grateful for
him on your Southern California Toyota.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Dealer Celebrity headset.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
He's got a very very special and famous artist that
he's touring right now. They just got back from beautiful
Parents for the Olympics, and Robert Vargas is the name
of the artist, and he just did I think it's
going to go for at least two three hundred thousand dollars.
It took about a half hour, a charcoal likeness of
(20:17):
our boss. Yeah, don fifteen minutes Robert. So, first of all,
welcome to Steve Van Dorn, Robert Vargas the artist.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Tell us what you guys have been up to.
Speaker 6 (20:26):
What you've been doing, Steve, We've been traveling all summer.
Robert was on a trip.
Speaker 4 (20:29):
We went out to beautiful Shanghai where we had an
Anthony Van Egan launch.
Speaker 6 (20:34):
We went from.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
There for three or four days off to Hanoi where
our factories are in Vietnam.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Let's go.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
We got to make our own shoes and stuff those
days Vietnam Christmas.
Speaker 6 (20:44):
And then we went on over to Tokyo and Robert
go to all of these.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Robert went to all.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
Of these with me.
Speaker 6 (20:48):
Yes, he was painting everywhere there.
Speaker 4 (20:50):
We went over to Tokyo and got picked up with
two low riders convertibles span of Rolls Royce which Tony
Alva jumped in that one right away, and then onto Soul, Korea.
Was eleven days of travel there. Just before then we
went out to Europe and traveled all over Europe. Krish
Nasoi was on both both trips. He's supposed to be
hearing a little bit, but just got to go and
cheer on the athletes skaters in Paris. For the park,
(21:15):
the park is with us transitions versus street with those
guys are just super talented going down rails and stairs
and doing tricks. The park is a little bit more transition.
And out there in the where the barbecue is is
a big picture of Kakona. She got a silver medal
in the Olympics wearing Van's shoes so proper.
Speaker 6 (21:34):
Yeah, Kakona, and then we have Arisa. Arissa fourteen years
old from Australia won the gold medal.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
There we go.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Hey, no, now, how much does he make for you?
How much Arnt do you have to produce every day, Robert,
to go on a trip like that? I mean, how
much do you have to bang out every day?
Speaker 3 (21:52):
You know? How many Don Martin caricatures do you have
to make to pay your way on a trip than
o caricatures?
Speaker 7 (21:57):
It's more of like Brint making art to the people.
And uh, you know it's great to draw all of
our athletes out there on the road. And you know,
it's really a lifestyle. If you're into the vans, you're
into the art, you're into the music, into petries of money.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Right, Yeah, they're a bit of an acquired case, Robert,
if we may, if we may be self centered for
a moment, if we may be self centered and narcissistic,
because we never are for a moment. I'm on this show.
Could you please share with us because as we both
entered our boss el Hefe, Don Martin was seated and
was the subject of a work of art. As far
(22:33):
as subjects go, live subjects. How would you rate our boss,
his stoic, intense look that never wavered for what seemed
like about a half hour, and the work of art
that you were able to create with him as your muse.
Speaker 7 (22:48):
I mean, obviously it ranked second to Steve Van Doren
im event, but you know we're connected. That portrait was,
you know, kind of came together, drew itself. You know,
Don's done an interesting guy.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
Yes, schot Will suggests it right. Were you intimidated by this?
Did you feel like he was trying to intimidate you
with his scholl? We were spirit dancing.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
It was we're here, okay, spirit dancing. Spirit dance.
Speaker 3 (23:12):
Its Don Martin, That's what it's.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
The Robert Vargas on Instagram, the Robert Vargas. If you
want to follow the wonderful art, you could check us
out right now. We're on YouTube and Facebook and x
and all of that. You know, just coming from the
Olympics and seeing all that stuff Steve Stean that's skateboarding
and all that, Uh, how does it rate with the
stuff that you guys brought up in skateboarding and what
(23:38):
you've created. Does it look like skateboarding in the Olympics?
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (23:42):
I know the head of the Skateboard Association Worldwide from
Italy came up and from Tokyo. Was the first time
of the Olympics head skateboarding. The number two on social
media viewed was soccer, which is football number one with skateboarding.
Speaker 6 (23:59):
Wow, we'll see how these Olympics did.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
I'm sure because I saw the crowd of ten or
twelve thousand people the days I was there with my
daughter Christy Christian Assoy in Sierra But we got to
have a spectacular event. I got to work the nineteen
eighty four Olympics when it was in Los Angeles, and
this is the first Olympic I got to go and
actually participate as a spectator and it was amazing.
Speaker 6 (24:23):
The people in Paris did a fantastic job.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
Robert goes all over the world when I go, because
he interacts with people. And he'll be sitting at a
restaurant and a waitress will come up and he'll just
take her arm and all of a sudden, do my portrait,
Christian's portrait, Tony's portrait.
Speaker 6 (24:38):
On their arm, whether Sephie or sometimes.
Speaker 4 (24:41):
To plate and it's got some chocolate, anything he finds
and he just sits here and makes a beautiful design.
But I'll let you tell him what he did in
downtown Los Angeles just recently, and he's working on the
world's biggest mural in downtown Los Angeles.
Speaker 7 (24:59):
What have we got, Robert, Well, some of you may
know I did paint the O Tawny mural and little Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
We all know that mural, Little Tokyo. It is beautiful
Little Tokyo, not to be confused with Chinatown. Right, there's
a Mookie Betts mural there, not nearly as nice.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Thank you for that.
Speaker 7 (25:17):
And there's an ar component where when you scan a
QR code you can actually see the mural swing, which
is a precursor to all the amazing things he's doing
right now. Uh, the Autonomyo right on First Street and
coming up on September eighth, I will be throwing out
the first pitch.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
There we go.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
Radio and also just down the street from there, I
Pursing Square. I'm painting the largest mural in the world
by one artist, which will be it's gonna be a
Guinness World Record and it's set to be completed later
this year.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
At at Persons right by the Angel's Flight that's right,
and uh.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
And the Biltmore Hotel I down there Johns Square. Oh yeah, yeah,
we used to stay there when I played football. What
is that mural? Can you give us a little hint?
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Yeah? Too much? Right, there'll be a big revealing all that.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Well, it's painted.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
You're not behind a giant.
Speaker 6 (26:03):
No, no, because I means exactly is that scaffolding? I
went up about the seventh floor? Yeah, scraffling? Whoa, Yeah, some.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
Guys working for you, like Michael Angelo. No is this
means just solo.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
He's completely freehand, no grids, no projections, brush.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Steve, you talked about, you talked about taking Christian with you,
and you've been great. Christian has been a great partner
with us every summer Tory. He always shows up, signs autographs,
takes photos. One of the all time great skateboarders in
the history of the sport.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
It is unique.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
It is a unique sport where Christian can dominate. In
the mid eighties through the mid nineties into two thousand,
he and Tony Hawk are out there and they are
still putting on an exhibition, skating at an incredibly high level.
How are they received? How is Christian received when he
gets to France?
Speaker 2 (26:51):
And the Olympics.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
So first vans people ask me and my daughter if
we would go and represent, and just I had to
behave myself, but as you can't promote hands over there,
so my daughter was kind of watching me and I said,
you know what, Christian actually had two girls, more than
two girls and the Olympics and one got first gold medal.
Speaker 6 (27:09):
That rode his board as well as fourth and so
I know Christian will get anywhere any place. He's never
waited in a line.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
So when he got there our first day going to practice,
he had a special thing. He's on the course. Okay, right,
he's on the course and they're having practice and afterward
he starts riding and Atiba and Bryce Knight's the best
photographers for skating in the world are.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Taking pictures of him and he's getting laid back.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
So Tony Hawk was there because he was doing a
lot of just stands things, so that had Tony.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Go and start doing more things. But Christian just happened.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
He's received great and he's a great ambassador, a really
really great person, and we love traveling with him wherever
we go.
Speaker 6 (27:47):
You know, we made up the special shoes here Competus and.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Is there.
Speaker 6 (27:53):
Somebody that's a nine and a half out there, nine
and a half, nine and a half.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
Rain shirt right here?
Speaker 6 (27:59):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
That guy's name little Lord faunt Leroy. Right, this is
a Cinderella story. Let's see that nine and a half.
All right, congratulations, sir.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
How about a lady.
Speaker 6 (28:09):
Seven and a half. Come on, lady at her? I
owe you, come on, come on, okay, come on down.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah, there we go.
Speaker 6 (28:21):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Yeah, we saw you've danced the fast time.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
These guys do things to organize. I just like winging it. Okay,
So we got a men's ten and a half.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Come on there we go. All right, Oh, door, the
door with shade, there we go. You throw them open, Steve,
Absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 6 (28:37):
That's good.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
We're giving away a whole bunch of those shoes. We
have plenty more prices to give away.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Last thing I gotta ask you, Steve, because you mentioned
you mentioned the Olympics coming, uh, how do we get
rid of Ralph Lauren and outfit everybody in vance for
center in California.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
We gotta work for it for twenty twenty eight and stuff,
that's for sure. But it was a pleasure be over there,
And just so you know, people really don't know it
because I didn't get to get to the press because
I had to behave myself.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
But the park, which was.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
One of the two disciplines in skateboarding, we created thirteen
years ago doing the Combe Pole in our indoor skate
park and then went to Huntington Beach at the Van's
US Open and built a park that used to be
in Marseille, France, and we did that for the next
eight years as well as have a park series.
Speaker 6 (29:24):
So Park whenever you hear park skateboarding.
Speaker 4 (29:27):
All of those young people that were in the contest
all came to Van's events and we actually created that's
super proud of that.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Well proud of you, Steve, and thank you so much
our host.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Thank you to Robert Gargas, one of the great artists

stoic slash and timid caricature, Dona. It's not a caricature.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
It connected. Their souls connected.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
It was a beautiful moment that lasted forty five minutes.
Don was so man spread and so focused on what
was happening. You really have to You got to put
your eyes on it to feel the intensity of what
was going on there for a while. Now she has arrived, Pete,
she has arrived. She will join us in the very
next segment. She will hang out for a little while.

We still have plenty of prizes to give away. There
is an opportunity for you to get here and still
qualify to be the final finalist to win the eleven
thousand dollars. But you must make it here. In the
next nineteen minutes, we will cut off the eleven thousand

We heard the traffic wasn't easy.

Speaker 3 (32:43):
You've come to Buena Park, You've come to a thousand oaks.

It's like a preside two or for Instead, she comes

to hang out with you people.

Yeah, so like eleven years right exactly.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
You live by the marina, you know, so you go
out there and you see the boats and sometimes the
same barnacles are stuck to the bottom of those boats.
Like Matt and I, we collect these these barnacles over
the years and they add character to our show. Now,
go ahead, go in the bathroom and look in the
mirror and say, am I a barnacle?
Speaker 2 (33:34):
That's a compliment. I believe it or not now, Jemmie.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Every year, the team makes global news. Every year.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Everything happening is always triple magnified because it's the Los
Angeles Lakers. Was this summer very different than other summers.
There was a little bit of a gap between the
head coaching higher But it feels like every year we
talk to you as something unique is going on and
there's been some big story in the media.
Speaker 8 (33:59):
Yeah, you know, I think I'm excited about our new coach,
JJ Reddick, you know, and I could sit here and
tell you all these you know, how great it's going
to be basketball wise, but you know, I really want
the opportunity just for the team to play basketball and
that will tell the story. But we're excited about our
(34:21):
draft picks, Dalton Connect who we didn't think would be
available for Connect at the seventeenth pick, and of course
Brownie James, who played at USC. So we're excited about our.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Young CLA station.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
That's all that. That's all that is there, No, that's true.
Speaker 8 (34:40):
UCLA is our health partner, so.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
So you know, so start with start with JJ Reddick.
It's a it's a bold hire. He's never coached at
any level save his nine year old son in the
city of New York.
Speaker 2 (34:51):
What led to that way?
Speaker 3 (34:52):
He obviously must have absolutely knocked it out in the interview,
And there was something that you saw there that made
you comfortable handing the keys to this franchise over to
him as a coach.
Speaker 8 (35:01):
Yeah, you know we wanted to, you know, kind of think,
you know, a different way. Really, you know, he's got
a vision. You know, I'm not comfortable talking about the basketball.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Kind of stuff, but could you have to sign off?
I don't like he must have impressed you in some
way in the interview.
Speaker 8 (35:19):
Process, absolutely, you know, we we you know, we were
looking for a candidate that would bring something different and
really invest in developing young players. And you know, JJ's
the right person for us. And you know, again, I
just want the work to really speak for itself, So
(35:40):
I don't want to hype it and say, like, you know,
it's going to be a home run. We have to,
you know, give him time to establish what he wants
to establish. And I'm really impressed with his staff. They've
been there.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
You know.
Speaker 8 (35:55):
Right now it's not mandatory for the players to come
in and practice, but players are coming in and working
out the coaching staff with Nate McMillan and Scottie Brooks.
There's a lot of experience that will be there for
him to, you know, make that adjustment to being a
head coach, but certainly a twelve year career in the league.
(36:18):
He's got a lot of experience. He knows what this
league's about, and I think he'll be a great leader.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
So when you when you write a check for the
amount of money you wrote a check for to Lebron James,
and you think about how old he is and how
many miles are on those legs, and then he says,
I want to play in the Olympics. And then you
watch the Olympics and you see their heavy minutes, their
hard minutes, their intense minutes. Do you, and I would
assume you talk to other governors of franchises about how
(36:43):
you guys feel about these, you know, these assets of
yours that are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Is
there any issue with that whatsoever? Any concern about watching
him play and banging around in those gold medal metal
games and everything that's happening.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
I think, you know, I.
Speaker 8 (36:59):
Think you know, he's so competitive, it's really got to
be something that he wants to do, and we always
support our players in the decisions that they make in
regards to playing for their national team or not. And uh,
you know it was something that was important to Lebron.
And yes he is, you know, our our highest paid player,
(37:20):
but he's still a bargain to me. You know, I
think he's he's uh, he's absolutely amazing.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
He's in the conversation, what do you mean.
Speaker 8 (37:29):
You know, because we're a salary cap league, you know,
there's only so much that we can pay him. And
you know, he.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Brings us, you know, the notoriety.
Speaker 8 (37:40):
In the league, but also internationally, he's he's a huge star,
and you know he's he's a great leader for this
team and what he does for our young players, what
he does for the community.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
You know, we're just we're proud to be partners with them.
Speaker 8 (37:57):
And and you know it's the same as you know,
Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant were, you know, because we're
in a capped league, you know, they probably should have
been paid, you know, twice as what they get, but
you know we can only pay him the maximum.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
Dark Well, thank goodness, listen, there are lake. It's not
just the Genie Bus summer tour year and in year
out on the Petrosen Money Show. There's six Laker preseason games.
Two in the Desert with old Rickley Fred out there
and at the New Arena out there. There's one in
Milwaukee for the old school types, yeah, the good Earth.
(38:36):
There's one in Vegas at Tea Mobile, one in Phoenix,
and one in San Francisco versus the Warriors. The Lakers
tip off the regular season October twenty second versus the
Minnesota Tea Wolves.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
You know, Genie, you've.
Speaker 1 (38:49):
Been on a front seat to the entire success and
a big part of the success of the Laker organization
since you were in college or college age.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
Magic. You mentioned highest paid player, Shaq was like that,
Kolbe was like that. Now, you guys are connected to
another brand in Lebron. How different is he than maybe
some of those other guys. How different is the league
when you every different superstar has a different kind of
vibe and the league is different when you have them
(39:21):
on your team.
Speaker 8 (39:23):
You know, that's I guess that's the beauty of it
is that every year it's different. And you know, certainly
Lebron is a force to be reckoned with. He has
you know, made Laker Nation proud by bringing us our
seventeenth championship. Certainly we were hoping for number eighteen before
(39:43):
the Celtics won this off season.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
But there you go, read me to the crowd, thrill
the red meat to the crowd. Geenie, get the chill,
get those booze. You didn't call him.
Speaker 1 (39:54):
Up and congratulate him or send him some shamrocks or
anything like anyway to go?
Speaker 2 (39:58):
No, I did not.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Yeah, so, but you're forced Wick to sell the team.
All right, you're done?
Speaker 2 (40:03):
Get out?
Speaker 8 (40:04):
No, I mean you know it's it's you know, the
idea that the Celtics are for sale, that Mark Cuban
is no longer right, you know, the in control of
the Dallas Mavericks.
Speaker 3 (40:15):
Who shows up when the Mavericks are at the table,
some guy with a big hat.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
Now it's it's.
Speaker 8 (40:24):
But you know Mark is so closely associated with the Mavericks.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
But I guess also, shark to you're close.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
You're close with Mark, right, yeah so when and you're
close with Wick, I think as well. So when those
two guys sell, what do you think, like when you
hear about what they're getting, what they're set why they're
getting out all that sort of stuff, and do you
do people come to you and say, Jeanie, uh like,
is there any of that that's going on with the Lakers?
Or at least they just ask you, like, why are
these two guys selling that we would have never thought
(40:51):
with someone?
Speaker 8 (40:52):
I mean, you also have Michael Jordan who sold his
and you know, I think that they're just people that
are always looking to challenge themselves and something else. So certainly,
you know, Wick has had his success as the governor
of the Celtics, winning championships, and you know it's maybe
(41:13):
he wants to do something different.
Speaker 2 (41:15):
And same with Mark.
Speaker 8 (41:16):
You know, he's done a lot for lowering the cost
of prescription drugs for people, and you know, and I
expect him to continue to do more and more now
that he doesn't have to worry about the day of.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
Life of public service, right exactly? Can you stick around?
Speaker 3 (41:34):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (41:34):
All right? Well for so long?
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Begetias, I'm not going to put it back on our own.
Hang out for a little while. We're here until six o'clock.
Jeannie is going to be here for another segment at least,
and we continue to give away prizes every single segment.
Fast Times continues to perform every single break. It's filling up,

go to the Journey show tonight?
