Speaker 4 (02:47):
We can kind of Ryan's roses it a little bit today.
Maybe you need our help reaching out to somebody in
your life. Listen, people blocked me before. I'm giving you
the opportunity to use KFI to reach out to some
maybe a star crossed lover.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
I don't know if that will happen.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Hey, by the way, I don't know if you've noticed
this before, but every place you go it seems like
they're trying to scam you.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
You noticed this, Eileen, all the.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Time, text messages, emails, and yeah, it's crazy. It's out
of control.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Malicious ways in which people are trying to rip you
off are infinite, and I just found one the other
day that really just blew my mind. So this is
a little bit of backstory. I won't get into the details.
It's not important. I bought a mattress topper.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
All right.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
It's not the manliest thing in the world, but my
back was hurting my mattress. It kind of sucks. I
gotta go check out.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
The uh where the mattress is free? What's that rich you?
Who's that guy?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I don't you know your mattresses?
Speaker 4 (03:53):
I'm sure he advertises on this station. You're killing him, Larry, Okay, now.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
You know do you know what the company?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Remember?
Speaker 6 (04:00):
Sleep?
Speaker 7 (04:00):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
No sleep number? Is the kind of bed they sell,
but it's the is it the mattress will be hold on?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Will mattress king be anybody? It might be mattress king?
Anybody's sit in sleep? There you go, we got a winner.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Sit in sleep will be anybody's advertised price or your
mattress is okay? So, as I was saying I should
have gone to sit and sleep, I bought a bad mattress.
I bought a new mattress topper to try to fix things.
Turns out it was too soft. It felt like I
was waking up in the middle of the night on
one of those air mattresses you know where you like
start off, things are great, and the three hours later
(04:34):
you wake up and you're on the floor. Okay, that
was the vibe. So I'm like, all right, I got
to return this thing. It wasn't expensive like a car,
but it wasn't cheap like a soda. So I'm like,
let's get some money back. So, if you've ever tried
to put a mattress pad back into the box that
came in, this is an impossible task. This is something
(04:54):
that no human being has ever achieved, because it comes
vacuum sealed.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
You know.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
It's like that memory phone thing where once it gets
expanded and it gets the air in it up.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Like a cannabiscuit.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
IM just like, so I can't find a box to
put this thing in. I can't put it in the
original box. I'm like wrap and rope around it. I'm
trying to lay on top of it and shove it
in the box. This is my entire Friday, by the way.
So I go out and I'm thinking, all right, well,
I just got to get a bigger box. They'll take
a bigger box, they'll take whatever box it's in. They
just want it back. So I drive down to.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
The hardware store. No boxes.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
I drive over to a different hardware store. I'm over
in Studio City. No boxes go up all the way
to North Hollywood. Finally get a U haul situation. I
get one of those really thick wardrobe boxes. This is
a big box and I think, okay, I'm in the money.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Now.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
I get the box. I bring it back home. I
tape up the box. First, I had to get it
into the car. That was no small feet. I won't
bor you with the details. It was difficult. There were
windows down, there were limbs sticking out of windows, there
were pieces of boxes flying down Lankersham Boulevard.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I get it home.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I finally wrestle this darn thing into the box, stick
it in the box, tape it up, take it to
the return shipping place.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
I won't say the name.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Okay, it's one of those places where you drop off
things and that you ship them. And I go in
and again did my darness to tape the thing up.
And there's a kid working there, you know, probably at
early twenties, lighteens, and he's sort of disaffected, kind of whatever,
you know. I mean, I don't expect this guy. It's
(06:33):
probably not his dream job. I'm not expecting tons of
enthusiasm from him, and he says to me, Okay, just
so you know, this is not a shipping box. This
is a box that you use just to move. This
is a cardboard box. That's a moving box. It's not
(06:54):
a shipping box, so it probably won't make it to
its destination. And I'm looking at and it's like, this
is a giant, thick wardrobe box. There is no difference
between this cardboard box and whatever the thing that it
came via Amazon or wherever in it's bigger, but we're
not talking about architecturally engineered any different. It's card It's
(07:17):
recycled paper that has been put into a cardboard form, corrugated, stapled,
and taped. And this guy wants me to rip open
the box there at this ship center, buy a new
box and pay him to put the mattress topper into
my new box and then ship it because he can't
(07:42):
guarantee that it's gonna make it. And I'm like, I've
exasperated at this point. I'm like, I just I wish
I would have never even I'm never going to sleep again.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
I already know this.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
So I kind of go back and forth with him
a little bit and I'm playing the game of like
I think it's gonna be okay. He's like, it's not
going to get there, right. I said, I think, I
think it's all right, and he's like, well, you did
pack it pretty well, and I said yeah. So I
start to get a little in I think, okay, he's
going to go for it. So finally I'm just like,
I'm just here.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
It is.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
You ship it, you take it. Here's the label goodbye,
and he's him in in haw and you know, because
he wants to make more money, he wants it's an upsell.
I walk out of there not two hours later, maybe
four or five hours. Same day, I get a notification
they accepted it and issued the refund. Baby, come on,
(08:38):
I know that was nonsense. I know it was bs,
but he's got to say it. He's got to say that,
oh well you get you can't ship this in this box.
And for a minute I was like, baby, he's right.
I still am sort of doubting myself. They're always trying
to scam you. I wish it wasn't so, but it
(09:02):
is coming up. We're talking about Phillies, Karen. Have you
seen this story? This is infuriating kid gets a ball
at a baseball game, somebody comes up rips it out
of his hand. It's a tale as old as time.
In twenty twenty five, I feel like this is the
summer of that happening, and I have some thoughts about that.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
All coming up.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
We're celebrating alt rock of the late nineties, if only
for in those intro music segments Little Matchbox twenty push,
I believe that was nineteen ninety six. I've always wanted
to be an FMDJ. I really wanted to hit the post.
Maybe someday.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
What would be your DJ name?
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Ooh, great question? Grease Fire? How about that? Well, you know, Reesemeyer.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
That's a lot.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
Okay, that's a lot of people back in high school
had a lot of funny opinions on how my name was.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Give us something.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
I mean that pretty much. The funny is Reese is easy,
you know, I mean, it's easy to go by Reese.
That's a cool. That's a cool guy, Andy I. He
did have a teacher who for years, like did not
I mean at least a year. I didn't get held
back only once that was later, but she she was
my teacher and she's still. No one can ever spell
my name correctly. Whether it's I E S or Ei S.
(10:20):
It's our I E S doesn't matter. Might as well
as whatever you want it to be it is. But
she would write, like on the pass, if it was
like I needed a pass to go somewhere, she would
write Andy Greesemeyer. And I was like, she has to
be messing with me at a certain point, because it
was like for nine months, it's the cross I have
to bear. Listen, guys, you know we will overcome.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Have you seen this.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
It's going wild on social media. She's being called the
Phillies Karen. She's the new bad person on the Internet,
a new Internet villain.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
A man and his son, I think his whole family.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Actually, we're at a Phillies Marlins game in Miami on
front when Philly's center fielder Harrison Bader hit a home run.
So the ball goes flying into the crowd. It goes
into left field in the bleachers where a fan, this
guy named Drew felt Well, was sitting.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
He felt well and then he got upset.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Dumbest joke of my life video from the game shows
the ball landing near a woman in a Phillies Jersey.
She's got this very interesting haircut. You've probably seen it
on your timeline. If you haven't, you can google it.
You won't miss it. Just google Philly's Karen. You'll see
her and the ball lands on the ground near her
and everybody goes scrambling for it. You know, it's hot potato.
(11:40):
It's like, let's grab the ball. It's on the ground.
It's like we were all outside of a barbecue, and
why there's a cat here. Suddenly somebody get the cat.
Whose cat is that? I don't know. Just pick it
up and we'll deal with it later. That's the that's
the scenario.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Just to visualize.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Video from the game shows the ball then and after
the tussle, a man, this guy Drew, picks up the ball,
takes it back over to his part of the bleachers
and gives it.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
To his son.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
Then you see in sensed a woman comes running over.
Now this is all on TV. This was on the broadcast,
and she demands the ball back. You can kind of
see her back as turned to the camera, but you
can tell the body language she's saying stuff like it
was in my.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Hand, that was my ball. Give it back.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
The exchange words, the dad looks kind of surprised, he
gives it back to her, and I think the broadcasters
make a joke like, wow, you only ever see that
in tennis, because, if you remember last week, the last
villain of the Internet last week stole a hat from
a kid at the US Open. So anyway, this started
(12:50):
a firestorm on the internet. People sharing it, of course,
trying to docks her, trying to find out who she is,
get her fired.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
They call her the Phillies Karen.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
There's another video online taken in the stands that sort
of shows the other angle of her berating the guy
to get the ball back. People thought that they figured
out who it was, and of course they tried to
cancel her. It appears that the social media rumors were wrong, though,
because a person who has this name we don't need
(13:22):
to say her name, but a person who has the
name who thought the internet thought was this lady, actually
put a statement out on her Facebook saying, all right, everybody,
I'm not the crazy Philly Mom, but I would sure
love to be as thin as she is and move
as fast. And I'm a Red Sox fan. And then
she changed her Facebook cover photo to the Boston Red
Sox to show she wasn't a Phillies fan. She said, imagine,
(13:44):
I imagine I'll be receiving apologies from all the people
who've been harassing me all day saying I wasn't anywhere
near Florida last night, never mind of Phillies game in Florida. Okay,
there's a lot of personalizing all of these kinds of things.
People see them in these incidents where we don't know
all the details. They see themselves as either the villain
(14:06):
or the victim. One person says, no, the father did
not catch it. She's an older lady and was almost
going to pick it up, and he opportunistically took advantage
of her limited agility when he should have had some decency.
Why do you people love to vilify women so much?
Speaker 3 (14:24):
That was her ball.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
I'll be real with you, she did not seem too
limited in her agility where she she sprinted on over
to the side of his stands and demanded the ball back. Obviously,
no one can know unless you were there. But I
was looking at this and I was thinking about it
in context of the other story that happened last week
with the US Open. And you know what you do
(14:47):
when you go to these sport events now and you
see up on the JumboTron, you know what you see
happens to Dodger games. Happens a charger games? Go chargers,
by the way, you see these little sketches, hear me
out here?
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Are you following me? Eileen?
Speaker 2 (15:06):
I'm following it.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
I'm also reading up on the story as you're talking.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
So is this fake?
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Is this a big old stunt that they just pulled
for the cameras because this is hot. We know this
is a thing that people are into talking about. With
the kid getting the ball stolen, then we all hate
the guy who took it or the lady who took it.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Is this one of those little sketches? Do you know
what I'm talking about?
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Where they do these little bits where all of a
sudden they'll have the dance cam on and then someone
will start dancing, and then they will pull one of
the concession stand workers into the right.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah it's a plant.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Yeah, why would this not be that? Could this be
a plant?
Speaker 6 (15:52):
Now?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
I understand it would be hard to time it, but
you would just wait until there was a home run
in that part of the stadium and then go, I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
And the reason I say this is because it.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Happens so so quickly after the last one last week.
And this woman's haircut is insane. It's an undercut where
the bottom is dark and the top is light silver.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
I don't know. I just I'm skeptical of everything these days.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
I'm not a fan of her, but I don't hate
her haircut.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Oh you okay, all right, So I'm not going to
make any judgment on her hair. As someone who has
insane hair, I don't feel like it's appropriate for me
to tell anybody great hair, thank you. But I just
like that's she's going to get canceled. If she's a
real person. They haven't found her yet. Apparently when they do,
they want her to lose her job. They want her
to suffer. I think that's a bit much, But I
(16:45):
also understand it's ridiculous for adults to act like children,
and we just tolerated this day these days, like let
the ball go, let it go. This isn't sho heo
Tani's fifty to fifty ball. You aren't going to retire.
I don't think.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
So I was reading this.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
It says the father said the reason he gave the
ball back to her, He said, I had a fork
in the road either to do something I was probably
going to regret or be a dad and show him
how to de escalate the situation.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Though, he just gave her the ball and he came
out looking great, so did the kids. The kid.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
The Marlins actually brought a swag bag to the kid.
He got an autographed bat afterwards. So it did work out.
But it does feel don't I don't know. I just
don't think it's beyond anybody to create something like this,
But maybe I'm crazy. We're going to open up the
phone lines eight hundred five two zero one five three
four eight hundred five two zero one five three four?
Speaker 3 (17:34):
Should she have got that ball back? Should she have
let the kid have the ball? Was it her ball?
I want to know what you have to say.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Eight hundred five to two zero one five three four,
eight hundred five two oh one KFI it is the
Andy Reesemeyer Show.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
I'm learning that maybe this was a first, a first
for you as far as the Googo Dolls are concerned,
Robin's got to put on her headphones, Robin, friend of
you listening to a different show.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Sorry, I just want to find another song. Oh no, no,
it's okay.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
So yeah, So tell me that you're not totally familiar
with the goo goo doll song?
Speaker 7 (18:15):
I am, I actually am, but my my family pronounced
it differently.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
They called it, what what you your family? Go go
the go go dolls? I mean, I get it. What
on earth is a goo go doll? Who's to say
a go go doll is more obvious of a thing?
So that makes a lot of sense. Well, I hope
you get to go to the show tonight if you sow,
if you so desire, It's at the Greek this evening.
Speaker 7 (18:42):
I I honestly don't like going to any LA events
because of traffic.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Well that's true, and listen with the Karmageddon on the
four or five. This isn't the Karmageddon of our youth, right,
Richie agreed? You experienced it firsthand there I did the
four or five shut down at least down to three lanes,
both directions for the entire weekend, not going to be
open fully until tomorrow. Back in the day when we
(19:07):
had a karmageddon. The first time we had carmageddon back
in my day in twenty twelve, I think, is when
that was. Yeah, nobody went anywhere. The traffic was the
best that it's ever been, and now not so much.
You got stuck?
Speaker 3 (19:21):
Good luck? Did you get stuck or what happened to you?
Speaker 6 (19:25):
Well?
Speaker 8 (19:25):
I was in Santa Monica yesterday for a friend's birthday
and when we were heading when I say, we met
and my best friend Victor. We were heading up there
and we're like, why is there so much traffic on
the composite side, And then boom, it dawned on us. Oh, yeah,
they're closing the freeway. So luckily what by the time
we headed back home, luckily no traffic. But yeah, good
luck for those that are out there.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
Indeed, good luck for those that are out there. I
think we could say that for literally anything and everything
here on news. Yeah, let's talk about Noua House. Are
you familiar with this. It was a private members only club.
They had a few locations in Los Angeles, build themselves
as the sort of creative center, and there were a
lot of events over the years. Even non members maybe
got to go check it out. They would take over
(20:08):
these iconic locations. They were in the former CBS building,
the CBS News k Cal building here or there in
Hollywood had a nice little rooftop situation.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
The one in Venice used to have some great shows,
like they get artists that were just you know, breaking
through that had just gotten signed by saying their first shows.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
It was really fun.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
The same for the one in downtown Los Angeles. It
was a set up in the Bradbury Building, you know,
which is really iconic building was the original headquarters of
the LAPD way back in the early nineteen hundreds, and
then I believe it was also in a lot of movies.
You might remember it from Blade Runner and it was
in Bosh if you ever watched that show. But they
(20:52):
basically turned that into another one of their members on
the clubs and their co working spaces, kind of like
a more creative version of that other one that I
don't think is doing too well, which I can't even
remember it, But the point is they were selling memberships
all the way up until I think the day that
(21:12):
they shut down. They sent an email to their employees saying,
we're writing to let you know We've made the difficult
decision to wind down our business, closed Noia House. Our
last day of operations this is they wrote this and
centered on Wednesday, So they said their last day of
operations will be Friday, September fifth. They're filing for Chapter
seventh bankruptcy. Chapter seven bankruptcy. They said that they've created
(21:37):
an extremely valuable business, prized by members and event hosts,
but unfortunately it was burdened by legacy liabilities, including deep
rent increases at all three of our locations, those three
being downtown Venice.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
And also in Hollywood.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
Members though, been posting a lot about how angry they were,
the fact that basically there isn't They didn't know that
they were they were losing it. People had bought pre
paid year long memberships, no specifics about if they will
get their money back online. We have TAMAS moreno Johnson
(22:20):
who at one point was a contractor with Noia House
and I also count as a friend. Do we have tamas.
We may have lost to MOS. I think we lost
to MOS. Let's have them call back. Looks like we
(22:42):
lost them all right. So a lot of people, though
had anticipated that they were going to be they were
going to be doing this, having this this coworker experience,
this place that they were going to be able to visit,
be creative, meet other creative people. But chapter seven bankruptcy.
I don't know what legacy liabilities necessarily means. That's sort
(23:04):
of a nice way. It sounds like of saying like
it was expensive to operate the buildings that we were
working in. It's kind of a surprise because, as we know,
com commercial spaces have had a lot of trouble, so
you would think, hey, let's work on a deal with
these to keep these tenants. But I don't know, I
think we have to moss now on the line.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Are you there, buddy, I am here. Thanks for calling.
So what happened? In your mind?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
You just were going about your day to day and
you work there as a contractor, right, and then you
got this email and they said, oh we're done.
Speaker 9 (23:37):
Yes, yeah, it was it was pretty shocking. I will say.
You know, as you say, I sort of effectively work
there as a contractor. I was on the events team,
so I would only work weekly whenever events were scheduled,
So my schedule would change week to week and was
always based on availability. So you know, I wasn't there
too often, but was there.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
A sense that things were not going well well and
that now you guys might not have a job on Friday?
Speaker 9 (24:04):
No, absolutely not. In fact, we got an email on
Friday from our management team going over all of the
scheduled events for that week, for this last week and
for this upcoming week, regular checking email saying, hey, these
are the events, here's the description of them. Make sure
to put in your availability for next week. And that
(24:26):
was at around ten am. At around five pm or so,
the entire staff was alerted that not only would the
company be shutting down, but it would be effective in
two days. And so that you know, not only is
everyone out of a job, but members would have essentially
two days to collect their things before operations close on
(24:48):
Friday the fifth. And again we received this email on
the third. So I can't even imagine what kinds of
conversations needed to happen with the event planners or the
various you know, things that have been scheduled for the
rest of the month and frankly probably for the rest
of the year, if not into next year. As you know,
events in LA like that is kind of how these
(25:09):
things go. You get ahead of the ball a lot
of times on this stuff. So one of the things
that was not very fun.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
No, indeed, one of the things they said in the emails,
if you interact with people who have booked events after
September fourth, we will make sure that you have the
information you need to have those conversations.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
What do you think that means?
Speaker 9 (25:27):
I love that it's very diplomatic, I think, I mean,
I'm not sure what information they're referring to. In my mind,
the information that I would want to know if I
was on the other end of that is why. And
I really don't think they're going to give us that information.
To be honest with you, I.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
Mean, you work with this place. God, what seven eight years?
Maybe a long time.
Speaker 9 (25:53):
It feels like seven years and what years?
Speaker 3 (25:55):
What are all your other cohorts saying about this?
Speaker 9 (26:00):
Everyone is just as shocked. I think it's it's you
know again, because we're all events. Some people are there
pretty constantly, some people are not there very much. So
it's kind of arrange as far as like how much
anyone sort of you know, relied on it for work.
But it was certainly you know, like like you said,
I've been there for eight or you know, seven years
(26:22):
was going on eight years, and I think everyone's just
totally shocked. Even management that I talked to, you know,
I'm obviously I'm not going to name any names or
anything like that, but upper level management that I talked
to said that they were just as shocked. They did
not have information ahead of time that any of us
didn't have. They were alerted when the email went out.
(26:43):
It was business as usual up until that moment. And
for you know, for even you know, operations manager level,
like nobody knew ahead of time. This is like a
total shock to everyone.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
It is crazy.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
I've worked on television shows where we got canceled and
we had more than.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Two days notice.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
So it doesn't sound like I mean, it sounds like
it was a pretty well kept secret. But it also
doesn't sound like it was a decision that was made lightly.
I mean, filing for Chapter seven bankruptcy I don't think
is something you just do in a morning, you know.
So I'm sorry, man, that's such a bummer. That was
such a cool place. They were doing something neat in
a time when people were trying to figure out how
(27:21):
to make commercial space work. And then we're keeping these
legacy buildings populated with regular folks that were a lot
of times closed to the public. The public got to
go and see at these events or these other things.
I know, I got to go check out the Bradbury
Building had that really cool bar called the Wyman, and
that was one of the coolest things I think that
(27:43):
I did have done in relation to a cool old
school LA building. But I'll tell you what. I'm going
to vouch for you, Tomas. If anybody is looking to
hire somebody great Tomas Moreno, Johnson is your guy.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
He is discreet. If you fire him, he or your
company goes out of bus, he may go on the radio.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
And talk about it, but he will not bad mouth
you at all, and he will be very kind about
it in diplomatics.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
So I appreciate you so much, my friend.
Speaker 9 (28:10):
Thank you, Andy. I can't wait. I can't wait to
start working on radio.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Hopefully, hopefully we will not have the same fit as
Annoy House. But you are welcome here anytime, of course,
We'll talk to you real soon.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Tomas Marino Johnson, Bye bye.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
Yeah, there you go. Noia House shut down. And so
there goes another interesting idea here in Los Angeles. The
market in Culver City, the Citizens Public Market same day,
I think also said that they will be closing, shutting
down their operations down there. So tough times in LA
for Hollywood, for restaurants, for businesses, for everybody. Uh, you know,
(28:48):
you gotta you gotta go to these places while you
while you can, I think, is what it teaches you.
Quick right, We'll be right back with more here on
the Andy Reestmeyer Show.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
You're listening to KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
Thanks for being with us today.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
Little counting Crows there as we continue to celebrate late
nineties alt rock. When you hear counting Crows, especially that era,
I feel like you got to look to the hills
wistfully off into the distance. That's what I'm doing. I
gotta say something. Also, I've become a Chargers fan. I'm
(29:23):
from Indianapolis, but I've been introduced to the San Diego,
former San Diego now Los Angeles Chargers.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
In no.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
Way is that a plan thing, just an amazing coincidence
that KFI is your Chargers station. There's going to be
a few Sundays this fall where I will not be
here because we'll be carrying a Chargers game. And I
just sincerely hope we don't compare it at the ratings
numbers week to week because they've got a lot of
(29:58):
stuff going on there. Man, there's a lot to talk
about with The Chargers had a game this weekend over
in Brazil.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
It was on YouTube. Did anybody catch this?
Speaker 4 (30:08):
The reason I bring this up is because our wonderful
program director Brian Long. Nice guy, serious, dude friendly, but
he's you know, he's the boss here. You never want
to make the boss man. He is a big Chiefs fan,
(30:29):
and who are the Chargers playing Friday night?
Speaker 3 (30:33):
Them Chiefs.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
I hear he was into it before Travis Kelcey started
dating Taylor Swift, but I can't be sure. Anyway, my boss,
Brian Long texted me on Friday morning and he said
to me, this is before the game happened. Have a
(30:56):
great weekend. I'm sorry your team had to make a
twelve hour flight to get whooped. Now I understand how
Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs fan Brian Long might
think that going into this game. Have the Chargers won
a Super Bowl? Have the Chargers won a lot of games?
(31:18):
These are tough questions. So anyway, about three or four
hours later, after justin Herber slid on into Oh, I
don't know, like the thirty thirty yard line. Two minutes left,
(31:39):
chargers were up. I don't remember how many points, but enough.
I texted him and I responded, I said, I'm sorry, what.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Did you say earlier?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
So I just have to go out a little bit?
Go chargers eight hundred five to one five three four.
That's the number. Give us a call the Ady Reesmier
Show here, or you can find us on the talkback
feature on the KFI iHeartRadio app. If you'd like to
just leave a message and don't want any talkback from me,
(32:14):
you are more than welcome to do that. Let's heid
up to Sherman Oaks for this next story from television
newsman Rick Chambers.
Speaker 6 (32:23):
Yes, just this week, masthieves leave empty handed after trying
to bust into one of these display cases at a
jewelry store in Sherman Oaks.
Speaker 10 (32:31):
Tonight we get a look at how the shatterproof glass
works and why it could put an end to smash
and grab thefts.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Rick Chambers in Studio City with the story tonight, Rick.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Yeah, Micah, this is one of those why didn't I
think of that?
Speaker 9 (32:45):
Moment?
Speaker 6 (32:46):
A local businessman who is trying to protect his own
goods may have come up with something to help protect everybody's.
Speaker 3 (32:56):
It may be them.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
This is what is so incredible about this piece of journalism.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Do you hear that.
Speaker 6 (33:02):
Local businessman who is trying to protect his own goods
may have come up with something to help protect everybody's.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
It may be the blood that is Rick Chambers with
a sledgehammer trying to break this glass. Rick Chambers is
so jacked. This man is, and I hope he doesn't
mind me saying this. Seventy years old and he looks unbelievable,
the original beefcake.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
And the man cannot break this.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
Glass, blessing that La retailers have been waiting for.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
He's wailing on it.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
Here's called a polycarbonate unbreakable glass that stores are now
using to defend against hammer toting crimbles. Ray teasing himself.
A business owner got the idea.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Two years ago.
Speaker 10 (33:52):
A lot of break in back there and that time,
a lot of break in to a liquor store and smokeshops, specially.
Speaker 5 (33:59):
A little bit.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
You know.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
He went to work and we.
Speaker 10 (34:01):
Did a lot of tests, drove in the car headed
with the slug hammer we'll try a lot of different weight.
Speaker 6 (34:08):
It's a material that actually has been around for a while.
But Ray saw that by customizing the sheets to fit
a customer's needs, he could save them money and heartache.
He advertised his product on social media and the calls
started coming.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
They say, that's amazing.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
We need to do my store.
Speaker 10 (34:27):
When can you come over.
Speaker 6 (34:28):
His most recent success story is Christoph's Jewelers at Westfield
Fashion Square in Sherman Oaks. Know it well, conveniently close
to a mall exit.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
By the way, this is that mall that has the
rotating sushi bar. You know, they've got the little cart.
It's like the train that runs around revolving sushi. Unrelated
important context.
Speaker 6 (34:51):
The jeweler had been hit earlier this year, but on Wednesday,
as hard as they tried, the thieves couldn't break the
new cases and not one piece of jewelry was lost.
Now reinforce doors and windows are popping up all around la.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
It is so incredible and when so much of the
news and I'll be real with you, last three years,
it feels like maybe since twenty twenty one, probably maybe
before that, since the pandemic, there were so many stories
about smash and grabs that I think news people just
started saying, like, we can't do another smash grab store.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
It's all we do is smash grab stories. It is crazy.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
And the fact that they were able to come up
with this polycarbonate, which I'm not really sure how it works.
I don't know that we necessarily get into that in this,
but it is remarkable. And if you'd like to watch this,
you can go to La Man's Unbreakable Glass stops thieves
targeting local stores on the KTLA YouTube page. Maybe, Richie,
we can put that up on our KFI. We can
link to that on our KFI Instagram as well, in
(35:50):
case you want to see Rick Chambers try to bowl
his way through some unbreakable glass. If that man can't
get through it, nobody's getting through it. That's all I
have to say. By the way, Richie, are you still here?
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Are you still hanging?
Speaker 9 (36:05):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (36:06):
Hi, welcome back, Hello, Welcome back from Las Vegas?
Speaker 8 (36:12):
So much fun? A solo trip, solo trip? Yes, of
all places, Vegas?
Speaker 3 (36:17):
What a crazy idea? What happened? Why do that? You know?
Speaker 8 (36:21):
I just was tired of missing out on attending concerts
and shows that my friends didn't want to join me
and I would miss out multiple times. So I decided,
you know what, yolo? So I decided to do So
I went to Vegas by myself. I flew out there
from Burbank, landed there and.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Great trip that way. It was so much, super easy.
Did you get to see the Backstreet Boys?
Speaker 3 (36:42):
I did not.
Speaker 8 (36:43):
I actually went to go see Ashley Simpson at the Venetian.
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Yeah. Yeah, they're laughing at me. Yeah, I know they are.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Well do they not know who you are? Because I
know you're the number one Ashley Simpson fan.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
You know, I would like to believe so myself.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
My real question is was she performing or did you
just run into her there?
Speaker 9 (37:01):
No?
Speaker 8 (37:02):
I literally bought tickets for Ashley Simpson.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
How much are those?
Speaker 8 (37:07):
Well, it's at the Venetian at this really intimate, like
you know, residency that she's having.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I'm sure, and I pay like two hundred and fifty.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
But I sat right.
Speaker 8 (37:16):
It's so intimate, Like my booth was right next to
Jessica Simpsons.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Were you the only person there?
Speaker 6 (37:22):
No?
Speaker 9 (37:23):
Girl?
Speaker 8 (37:23):
Check out their instagram and it's it's pretty lit. It's
so magical. We also have to say, you have to
tell everybody who this new voice is, Oh, that's our
board op slash producer NICKI, Hi.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Nicky, how are you great? It's not Eileen just doing
an accent.
Speaker 11 (37:37):
No, this is Nikki doing her real accent. Actually right,
I'm not British. Many people think I'm British.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Well, and you think it's funny that he paid two
hundred and fifty dollars, I think it's funny that that
he has two hundred fifty dollars to pay.
Speaker 11 (37:52):
I one time spent seven hundred and fifty dollars to
go see Little Wayne.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
So who am I to judge?
Speaker 4 (37:58):
Oh my god, I don't mean this in a mean way, Richie,
but Lil Wayne and or Little Wayne.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
Lil Wayne and Ashley Simpson are not the same. They're
not the same.
Speaker 8 (38:08):
But if we're talking about the same, didn't Lil Wayne
just have a concert and he was having like a
rock band plane and half of the people that were
there to see him like just dipped out?
Speaker 1 (38:19):
How day?
Speaker 3 (38:19):
Not those who paid seven hundred dollars will tell you
that much.
Speaker 11 (38:22):
That was as straightleyan currency though, So that's like twenty
dollars US got.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
It makes sense? All right?
Speaker 4 (38:29):
Well, very good? I know we're totally out of time here.
We've got a lot more show coming up here in
the next hour. Don't go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (38:35):

Might have heard about her. We're talking about the Goo Dolls.
I tried to get Johnny Resnik to come on be
on the show today. I'm sure he is busy. They
did respond though, they said, sorry, we have to pass
because I'm sure he's busy.
Speaker 3 (01:01):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:03):
We have an abrupt closure for the Noya House. We're
gonna get some inside details about what that was. Citizen
Market also a lot of places closing. Rick Chambers KTLA
anchor reporter, an official voice of Morongo Casino is trying
to break some glass and he can't break that glass.
(01:26):
Plus why Santa Monica is running out of money? How
a place where the sales tax is twelve and a
half percent is out of money. And finally from San
Pedro Fish Market, Mike Angaro will be joining us. We're
talking about that place. If you don't know about Pedro's
Fish Market, it is the best. A lot of people

Speaker 4 (02:47):
We can kind of Ryan's roses it a little bit today.
Maybe you need our help reaching out to somebody in
your life. Listen, people blocked me before. I'm giving you
the opportunity to use KFI to reach out to some
maybe a star crossed lover.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
I don't know if that will happen.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
Hey, by the way, I don't know if you've noticed
this before, but every place you go it seems like
they're trying to scam you.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
You noticed this, Eileen, all the.
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Time, text messages, emails, and yeah, it's crazy. It's out
of control.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Malicious ways in which people are trying to rip you
off are infinite, and I just found one the other
day that really just blew my mind. So this is
a little bit of backstory. I won't get into the details.
It's not important. I bought a mattress topper.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
All right.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
It's not the manliest thing in the world, but my
back was hurting my mattress. It kind of sucks. I
gotta go check out.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
The uh where the mattress is free? What's that rich you?
Who's that guy?
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I don't you know your mattresses?
Speaker 4 (03:53):
I'm sure he advertises on this station. You're killing him, Larry, Okay, now.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
You know do you know what the company?
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Remember?
Speaker 6 (04:00):
Sleep?
Speaker 7 (04:00):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (04:00):
No sleep number? Is the kind of bed they sell,
but it's the is it the mattress will be hold on?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Will mattress king be anybody? It might be mattress king?
Anybody's sit in sleep? There you go, we got a winner.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Sit in sleep will be anybody's advertised price or your
mattress is okay? So, as I was saying I should
have gone to sit and sleep, I bought a bad mattress.
I bought a new mattress topper to try to fix things.
Turns out it was too soft. It felt like I
was waking up in the middle of the night on
one of those air mattresses you know where you like
start off, things are great, and the three hours later
(04:34):
you wake up and you're on the floor. Okay, that
was the vibe. So I'm like, all right, I got
to return this thing. It wasn't expensive like a car,
but it wasn't cheap like a soda. So I'm like,
let's get some money back. So, if you've ever tried
to put a mattress pad back into the box that
came in, this is an impossible task. This is something
(04:54):
that no human being has ever achieved, because it comes
vacuum sealed.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
You know.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
It's like that memory phone thing where once it gets
expanded and it gets the air in it up.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Like a cannabiscuit.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
IM just like, so I can't find a box to
put this thing in. I can't put it in the
original box. I'm like wrap and rope around it. I'm
trying to lay on top of it and shove it
in the box. This is my entire Friday, by the way.
So I go out and I'm thinking, all right, well,
I just got to get a bigger box. They'll take
a bigger box, they'll take whatever box it's in. They
just want it back. So I drive down to.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
The hardware store. No boxes.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
I drive over to a different hardware store. I'm over
in Studio City. No boxes go up all the way
to North Hollywood. Finally get a U haul situation. I
get one of those really thick wardrobe boxes. This is
a big box and I think, okay, I'm in the money.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Now.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
I get the box. I bring it back home. I
tape up the box. First, I had to get it
into the car. That was no small feet. I won't
bor you with the details. It was difficult. There were
windows down, there were limbs sticking out of windows, there
were pieces of boxes flying down Lankersham Boulevard.
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I get it home.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
I finally wrestle this darn thing into the box, stick
it in the box, tape it up, take it to
the return shipping place.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
I won't say the name.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Okay, it's one of those places where you drop off
things and that you ship them. And I go in
and again did my darness to tape the thing up.
And there's a kid working there, you know, probably at
early twenties, lighteens, and he's sort of disaffected, kind of whatever,
you know. I mean, I don't expect this guy. It's
(06:33):
probably not his dream job. I'm not expecting tons of
enthusiasm from him, and he says to me, Okay, just
so you know, this is not a shipping box. This
is a box that you use just to move. This
is a cardboard box. That's a moving box. It's not
(06:54):
a shipping box, so it probably won't make it to
its destination. And I'm looking at and it's like, this
is a giant, thick wardrobe box. There is no difference
between this cardboard box and whatever the thing that it
came via Amazon or wherever in it's bigger, but we're
not talking about architecturally engineered any different. It's card It's
(07:17):
recycled paper that has been put into a cardboard form, corrugated, stapled,
and taped. And this guy wants me to rip open
the box there at this ship center, buy a new
box and pay him to put the mattress topper into
my new box and then ship it because he can't
(07:42):
guarantee that it's gonna make it. And I'm like, I've
exasperated at this point. I'm like, I just I wish
I would have never even I'm never going to sleep again.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
I already know this.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
So I kind of go back and forth with him
a little bit and I'm playing the game of like
I think it's gonna be okay. He's like, it's not
going to get there, right. I said, I think, I
think it's all right, and he's like, well, you did
pack it pretty well, and I said yeah. So I
start to get a little in I think, okay, he's
going to go for it. So finally I'm just like,
I'm just here.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
It is.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
You ship it, you take it. Here's the label goodbye,
and he's him in in haw and you know, because
he wants to make more money, he wants it's an upsell.
I walk out of there not two hours later, maybe
four or five hours. Same day, I get a notification
they accepted it and issued the refund. Baby, come on,
(08:38):
I know that was nonsense. I know it was bs,
but he's got to say it. He's got to say that,
oh well you get you can't ship this in this box.
And for a minute I was like, baby, he's right.
I still am sort of doubting myself. They're always trying
to scam you. I wish it wasn't so, but it
(09:02):
is coming up. We're talking about Phillies, Karen. Have you
seen this story? This is infuriating kid gets a ball
at a baseball game, somebody comes up rips it out
of his hand. It's a tale as old as time.
In twenty twenty five, I feel like this is the
summer of that happening, and I have some thoughts about that.
Speaker 3 (09:18):
All coming up.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
We're celebrating alt rock of the late nineties, if only
for in those intro music segments Little Matchbox twenty push,
I believe that was nineteen ninety six. I've always wanted
to be an FMDJ. I really wanted to hit the post.
Maybe someday.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
What would be your DJ name?
Speaker 4 (09:43):
Ooh, great question? Grease Fire? How about that? Well, you know, Reesemeyer.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
That's a lot.
Speaker 4 (09:51):
Okay, that's a lot of people back in high school
had a lot of funny opinions on how my name was.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Give us something.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
I mean that pretty much. The funny is Reese is easy,
you know, I mean, it's easy to go by Reese.
That's a cool. That's a cool guy, Andy I. He
did have a teacher who for years, like did not
I mean at least a year. I didn't get held
back only once that was later, but she she was
my teacher and she's still. No one can ever spell
my name correctly. Whether it's I E S or Ei S.
(10:20):
It's our I E S doesn't matter. Might as well
as whatever you want it to be it is. But
she would write, like on the pass, if it was
like I needed a pass to go somewhere, she would
write Andy Greesemeyer. And I was like, she has to
be messing with me at a certain point, because it
was like for nine months, it's the cross I have
to bear. Listen, guys, you know we will overcome.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Have you seen this.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
It's going wild on social media. She's being called the
Phillies Karen. She's the new bad person on the Internet,
a new Internet villain.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
A man and his son, I think his whole family.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
Actually, we're at a Phillies Marlins game in Miami on
front when Philly's center fielder Harrison Bader hit a home run.
So the ball goes flying into the crowd. It goes
into left field in the bleachers where a fan, this
guy named Drew felt Well, was sitting.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
He felt well and then he got upset.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
Dumbest joke of my life video from the game shows
the ball landing near a woman in a Phillies Jersey.
She's got this very interesting haircut. You've probably seen it
on your timeline. If you haven't, you can google it.
You won't miss it. Just google Philly's Karen. You'll see
her and the ball lands on the ground near her
and everybody goes scrambling for it. You know, it's hot potato.
(11:40):
It's like, let's grab the ball. It's on the ground.
It's like we were all outside of a barbecue, and
why there's a cat here. Suddenly somebody get the cat.
Whose cat is that? I don't know. Just pick it
up and we'll deal with it later. That's the that's
the scenario.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Just to visualize.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Video from the game shows the ball then and after
the tussle, a man, this guy Drew, picks up the ball,
takes it back over to his part of the bleachers
and gives it.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
To his son.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
Then you see in sensed a woman comes running over.
Now this is all on TV. This was on the broadcast,
and she demands the ball back. You can kind of
see her back as turned to the camera, but you
can tell the body language she's saying stuff like it
was in my.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Hand, that was my ball. Give it back.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
The exchange words, the dad looks kind of surprised, he
gives it back to her, and I think the broadcasters
make a joke like, wow, you only ever see that
in tennis, because, if you remember last week, the last
villain of the Internet last week stole a hat from
a kid at the US Open. So anyway, this started
(12:50):
a firestorm on the internet. People sharing it, of course,
trying to docks her, trying to find out who she is,
get her fired.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
They call her the Phillies Karen.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
There's another video online taken in the stands that sort
of shows the other angle of her berating the guy
to get the ball back. People thought that they figured
out who it was, and of course they tried to
cancel her. It appears that the social media rumors were wrong, though,
because a person who has this name we don't need
(13:22):
to say her name, but a person who has the
name who thought the internet thought was this lady, actually
put a statement out on her Facebook saying, all right, everybody,
I'm not the crazy Philly Mom, but I would sure
love to be as thin as she is and move
as fast. And I'm a Red Sox fan. And then
she changed her Facebook cover photo to the Boston Red
Sox to show she wasn't a Phillies fan. She said, imagine,
(13:44):
I imagine I'll be receiving apologies from all the people
who've been harassing me all day saying I wasn't anywhere
near Florida last night, never mind of Phillies game in Florida. Okay,
there's a lot of personalizing all of these kinds of things.
People see them in these incidents where we don't know
all the details. They see themselves as either the villain
(14:06):
or the victim. One person says, no, the father did
not catch it. She's an older lady and was almost
going to pick it up, and he opportunistically took advantage
of her limited agility when he should have had some decency.
Why do you people love to vilify women so much?
Speaker 3 (14:24):
That was her ball.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
I'll be real with you, she did not seem too
limited in her agility where she she sprinted on over
to the side of his stands and demanded the ball back. Obviously,
no one can know unless you were there. But I
was looking at this and I was thinking about it
in context of the other story that happened last week
with the US Open. And you know what you do
(14:47):
when you go to these sport events now and you
see up on the JumboTron, you know what you see
happens to Dodger games. Happens a charger games? Go chargers,
by the way, you see these little sketches, hear me
out here?
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Are you following me? Eileen?
Speaker 2 (15:06):
I'm following it.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
I'm also reading up on the story as you're talking.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
So is this fake?
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Is this a big old stunt that they just pulled
for the cameras because this is hot. We know this
is a thing that people are into talking about. With
the kid getting the ball stolen, then we all hate
the guy who took it or the lady who took it.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
Is this one of those little sketches? Do you know
what I'm talking about?
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Where they do these little bits where all of a
sudden they'll have the dance cam on and then someone
will start dancing, and then they will pull one of
the concession stand workers into the right.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Yeah it's a plant.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Yeah, why would this not be that? Could this be
a plant?
Speaker 6 (15:52):
Now?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
I understand it would be hard to time it, but
you would just wait until there was a home run
in that part of the stadium and then go, I
don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
And the reason I say this is because it.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Happens so so quickly after the last one last week.
And this woman's haircut is insane. It's an undercut where
the bottom is dark and the top is light silver.
Speaker 3 (16:17):
I don't know. I just I'm skeptical of everything these days.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
I'm not a fan of her, but I don't hate
her haircut.
Speaker 4 (16:23):
Oh you okay, all right, So I'm not going to
make any judgment on her hair. As someone who has
insane hair, I don't feel like it's appropriate for me
to tell anybody great hair, thank you. But I just
like that's she's going to get canceled. If she's a
real person. They haven't found her yet. Apparently when they do,
they want her to lose her job. They want her
to suffer. I think that's a bit much, But I
(16:45):
also understand it's ridiculous for adults to act like children,
and we just tolerated this day these days, like let
the ball go, let it go. This isn't sho heo
Tani's fifty to fifty ball. You aren't going to retire.
I don't think.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
So I was reading this.
Speaker 5 (17:02):
It says the father said the reason he gave the
ball back to her, He said, I had a fork
in the road either to do something I was probably
going to regret or be a dad and show him
how to de escalate the situation.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Though, he just gave her the ball and he came
out looking great, so did the kids. The kid.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
The Marlins actually brought a swag bag to the kid.
He got an autographed bat afterwards. So it did work out.
But it does feel don't I don't know. I just
don't think it's beyond anybody to create something like this,
But maybe I'm crazy. We're going to open up the
phone lines eight hundred five two zero one five three
four eight hundred five two zero one five three four?
Speaker 3 (17:34):
Should she have got that ball back? Should she have
let the kid have the ball? Was it her ball?
I want to know what you have to say.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Eight hundred five to two zero one five three four,
eight hundred five two oh one KFI it is the
Andy Reesemeyer Show.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
I'm learning that maybe this was a first, a first
for you as far as the Googo Dolls are concerned,
Robin's got to put on her headphones, Robin, friend of
you listening to a different show.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Sorry, I just want to find another song. Oh no, no,
it's okay.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
So yeah, So tell me that you're not totally familiar
with the goo goo doll song?
Speaker 7 (18:15):
I am, I actually am, but my my family pronounced
it differently.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
They called it, what what you your family? Go go
the go go dolls? I mean, I get it. What
on earth is a goo go doll? Who's to say
a go go doll is more obvious of a thing?
So that makes a lot of sense. Well, I hope
you get to go to the show tonight if you sow,
if you so desire, It's at the Greek this evening.
Speaker 7 (18:42):
I I honestly don't like going to any LA events
because of traffic.
Speaker 4 (18:47):
Well that's true, and listen with the Karmageddon on the
four or five. This isn't the Karmageddon of our youth, right,
Richie agreed? You experienced it firsthand there I did the
four or five shut down at least down to three lanes,
both directions for the entire weekend, not going to be
open fully until tomorrow. Back in the day when we
(19:07):
had a karmageddon. The first time we had carmageddon back
in my day in twenty twelve, I think, is when
that was. Yeah, nobody went anywhere. The traffic was the
best that it's ever been, and now not so much.
You got stuck?
Speaker 3 (19:21):
Good luck? Did you get stuck or what happened to you?
Speaker 6 (19:25):
Well?
Speaker 8 (19:25):
I was in Santa Monica yesterday for a friend's birthday
and when we were heading when I say, we met
and my best friend Victor. We were heading up there
and we're like, why is there so much traffic on
the composite side, And then boom, it dawned on us. Oh, yeah,
they're closing the freeway. So luckily what by the time
we headed back home, luckily no traffic. But yeah, good
luck for those that are out there.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
Indeed, good luck for those that are out there. I
think we could say that for literally anything and everything
here on news. Yeah, let's talk about Noua House. Are
you familiar with this. It was a private members only club.
They had a few locations in Los Angeles, build themselves
as the sort of creative center, and there were a
lot of events over the years. Even non members maybe
got to go check it out. They would take over
(20:08):
these iconic locations. They were in the former CBS building,
the CBS News k Cal building here or there in
Hollywood had a nice little rooftop situation.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
The one in Venice used to have some great shows,
like they get artists that were just you know, breaking
through that had just gotten signed by saying their first shows.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
It was really fun.
Speaker 4 (20:31):
The same for the one in downtown Los Angeles. It
was a set up in the Bradbury Building, you know,
which is really iconic building was the original headquarters of
the LAPD way back in the early nineteen hundreds, and
then I believe it was also in a lot of movies.
You might remember it from Blade Runner and it was
in Bosh if you ever watched that show. But they
(20:52):
basically turned that into another one of their members on
the clubs and their co working spaces, kind of like
a more creative version of that other one that I
don't think is doing too well, which I can't even
remember it, But the point is they were selling memberships
all the way up until I think the day that
(21:12):
they shut down. They sent an email to their employees saying,
we're writing to let you know We've made the difficult
decision to wind down our business, closed Noia House. Our
last day of operations this is they wrote this and
centered on Wednesday, So they said their last day of
operations will be Friday, September fifth. They're filing for Chapter
seventh bankruptcy. Chapter seven bankruptcy. They said that they've created
(21:37):
an extremely valuable business, prized by members and event hosts,
but unfortunately it was burdened by legacy liabilities, including deep
rent increases at all three of our locations, those three
being downtown Venice.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
And also in Hollywood.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
Members though, been posting a lot about how angry they were,
the fact that basically there isn't They didn't know that
they were they were losing it. People had bought pre
paid year long memberships, no specifics about if they will
get their money back online. We have TAMAS moreno Johnson
(22:20):
who at one point was a contractor with Noia House
and I also count as a friend. Do we have tamas.
We may have lost to MOS. I think we lost
to MOS. Let's have them call back. Looks like we
(22:42):
lost them all right. So a lot of people, though
had anticipated that they were going to be they were
going to be doing this, having this this coworker experience,
this place that they were going to be able to visit,
be creative, meet other creative people. But chapter seven bankruptcy.
I don't know what legacy liabilities necessarily means. That's sort
(23:04):
of a nice way. It sounds like of saying like
it was expensive to operate the buildings that we were
working in. It's kind of a surprise because, as we know,
com commercial spaces have had a lot of trouble, so
you would think, hey, let's work on a deal with
these to keep these tenants. But I don't know, I
think we have to moss now on the line.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Are you there, buddy, I am here. Thanks for calling.
So what happened? In your mind?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
You just were going about your day to day and
you work there as a contractor, right, and then you
got this email and they said, oh we're done.
Speaker 9 (23:37):
Yes, yeah, it was it was pretty shocking. I will say.
You know, as you say, I sort of effectively work
there as a contractor. I was on the events team,
so I would only work weekly whenever events were scheduled,
So my schedule would change week to week and was
always based on availability. So you know, I wasn't there
too often, but was there.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
A sense that things were not going well well and
that now you guys might not have a job on Friday?
Speaker 9 (24:04):
No, absolutely not. In fact, we got an email on
Friday from our management team going over all of the
scheduled events for that week, for this last week and
for this upcoming week, regular checking email saying, hey, these
are the events, here's the description of them. Make sure
to put in your availability for next week. And that
(24:26):
was at around ten am. At around five pm or so,
the entire staff was alerted that not only would the
company be shutting down, but it would be effective in
two days. And so that you know, not only is
everyone out of a job, but members would have essentially
two days to collect their things before operations close on
(24:48):
Friday the fifth. And again we received this email on
the third. So I can't even imagine what kinds of
conversations needed to happen with the event planners or the
various you know, things that have been scheduled for the
rest of the month and frankly probably for the rest
of the year, if not into next year. As you know,
events in LA like that is kind of how these
(25:09):
things go. You get ahead of the ball a lot
of times on this stuff. So one of the things
that was not very fun.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
No, indeed, one of the things they said in the emails,
if you interact with people who have booked events after
September fourth, we will make sure that you have the
information you need to have those conversations.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
What do you think that means?
Speaker 9 (25:27):
I love that it's very diplomatic, I think, I mean,
I'm not sure what information they're referring to. In my mind,
the information that I would want to know if I
was on the other end of that is why. And
I really don't think they're going to give us that information.
To be honest with you, I.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
Mean, you work with this place. God, what seven eight years?
Maybe a long time.
Speaker 9 (25:53):
It feels like seven years and what years?
Speaker 3 (25:55):
What are all your other cohorts saying about this?
Speaker 9 (26:00):
Everyone is just as shocked. I think it's it's you
know again, because we're all events. Some people are there
pretty constantly, some people are not there very much. So
it's kind of arrange as far as like how much
anyone sort of you know, relied on it for work.
But it was certainly you know, like like you said,
I've been there for eight or you know, seven years
(26:22):
was going on eight years, and I think everyone's just
totally shocked. Even management that I talked to, you know,
I'm obviously I'm not going to name any names or
anything like that, but upper level management that I talked
to said that they were just as shocked. They did
not have information ahead of time that any of us
didn't have. They were alerted when the email went out.
(26:43):
It was business as usual up until that moment. And
for you know, for even you know, operations manager level,
like nobody knew ahead of time. This is like a
total shock to everyone.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
It is crazy.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
I've worked on television shows where we got canceled and
we had more than.
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Two days notice.
Speaker 4 (27:01):
So it doesn't sound like I mean, it sounds like
it was a pretty well kept secret. But it also
doesn't sound like it was a decision that was made lightly.
I mean, filing for Chapter seven bankruptcy I don't think
is something you just do in a morning, you know.
So I'm sorry, man, that's such a bummer. That was
such a cool place. They were doing something neat in
a time when people were trying to figure out how
(27:21):
to make commercial space work. And then we're keeping these
legacy buildings populated with regular folks that were a lot
of times closed to the public. The public got to
go and see at these events or these other things.
I know, I got to go check out the Bradbury
Building had that really cool bar called the Wyman, and
that was one of the coolest things I think that
(27:43):
I did have done in relation to a cool old
school LA building. But I'll tell you what. I'm going
to vouch for you, Tomas. If anybody is looking to
hire somebody great Tomas Moreno, Johnson is your guy.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
He is discreet. If you fire him, he or your
company goes out of bus, he may go on the radio.
Speaker 4 (28:01):
And talk about it, but he will not bad mouth
you at all, and he will be very kind about
it in diplomatics.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
So I appreciate you so much, my friend.
Speaker 9 (28:10):
Thank you, Andy. I can't wait. I can't wait to
start working on radio.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
Hopefully, hopefully we will not have the same fit as
Annoy House. But you are welcome here anytime, of course,
We'll talk to you real soon.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Tomas Marino Johnson, Bye bye.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
Yeah, there you go. Noia House shut down. And so
there goes another interesting idea here in Los Angeles. The
market in Culver City, the Citizens Public Market same day,
I think also said that they will be closing, shutting
down their operations down there. So tough times in LA
for Hollywood, for restaurants, for businesses, for everybody. Uh, you know,
(28:48):
you gotta you gotta go to these places while you
while you can, I think, is what it teaches you.
Quick right, We'll be right back with more here on
the Andy Reestmeyer Show.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
You're listening to KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
Thanks for being with us today.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
Little counting Crows there as we continue to celebrate late
nineties alt rock. When you hear counting Crows, especially that era,
I feel like you got to look to the hills
wistfully off into the distance. That's what I'm doing. I
gotta say something. Also, I've become a Chargers fan. I'm
(29:23):
from Indianapolis, but I've been introduced to the San Diego,
former San Diego now Los Angeles Chargers.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
In no.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
Way is that a plan thing, just an amazing coincidence
that KFI is your Chargers station. There's going to be
a few Sundays this fall where I will not be
here because we'll be carrying a Chargers game. And I
just sincerely hope we don't compare it at the ratings
numbers week to week because they've got a lot of
(29:58):
stuff going on there. Man, there's a lot to talk
about with The Chargers had a game this weekend over
in Brazil.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
It was on YouTube. Did anybody catch this?
Speaker 4 (30:08):
The reason I bring this up is because our wonderful
program director Brian Long. Nice guy, serious, dude friendly, but
he's you know, he's the boss here. You never want
to make the boss man. He is a big Chiefs fan,
(30:29):
and who are the Chargers playing Friday night?
Speaker 3 (30:33):
Them Chiefs.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
I hear he was into it before Travis Kelcey started
dating Taylor Swift, but I can't be sure. Anyway, my boss,
Brian Long texted me on Friday morning and he said
to me, this is before the game happened. Have a
(30:56):
great weekend. I'm sorry your team had to make a
twelve hour flight to get whooped. Now I understand how
Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs fan Brian Long might
think that going into this game. Have the Chargers won
a Super Bowl? Have the Chargers won a lot of games?
(31:18):
These are tough questions. So anyway, about three or four
hours later, after justin Herber slid on into Oh, I
don't know, like the thirty thirty yard line. Two minutes left,
(31:39):
chargers were up. I don't remember how many points, but enough.
I texted him and I responded, I said, I'm sorry, what.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Did you say earlier?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
So I just have to go out a little bit?
Go chargers eight hundred five to one five three four.
That's the number. Give us a call the Ady Reesmier
Show here, or you can find us on the talkback
feature on the KFI iHeartRadio app. If you'd like to
just leave a message and don't want any talkback from me,
(32:14):
you are more than welcome to do that. Let's heid
up to Sherman Oaks for this next story from television
newsman Rick Chambers.
Speaker 6 (32:23):
Yes, just this week, masthieves leave empty handed after trying
to bust into one of these display cases at a
jewelry store in Sherman Oaks.
Speaker 10 (32:31):
Tonight we get a look at how the shatterproof glass
works and why it could put an end to smash
and grab thefts.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Rick Chambers in Studio City with the story tonight, Rick.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Yeah, Micah, this is one of those why didn't I
think of that?
Speaker 9 (32:45):
Moment?
Speaker 6 (32:46):
A local businessman who is trying to protect his own
goods may have come up with something to help protect everybody's.
Speaker 3 (32:56):
It may be them.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
This is what is so incredible about this piece of journalism.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
Do you hear that.
Speaker 6 (33:02):
Local businessman who is trying to protect his own goods
may have come up with something to help protect everybody's.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
It may be the blood that is Rick Chambers with
a sledgehammer trying to break this glass. Rick Chambers is
so jacked. This man is, and I hope he doesn't
mind me saying this. Seventy years old and he looks unbelievable,
the original beefcake.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
And the man cannot break this.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
Glass, blessing that La retailers have been waiting for.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
He's wailing on it.
Speaker 6 (33:37):
Here's called a polycarbonate unbreakable glass that stores are now
using to defend against hammer toting crimbles. Ray teasing himself.
A business owner got the idea.
Speaker 3 (33:51):
Two years ago.
Speaker 10 (33:52):
A lot of break in back there and that time,
a lot of break in to a liquor store and smokeshops, specially.
Speaker 5 (33:59):
A little bit.
Speaker 7 (34:00):
You know.
Speaker 3 (34:00):
He went to work and we.
Speaker 10 (34:01):
Did a lot of tests, drove in the car headed
with the slug hammer we'll try a lot of different weight.
Speaker 6 (34:08):
It's a material that actually has been around for a while.
But Ray saw that by customizing the sheets to fit
a customer's needs, he could save them money and heartache.
He advertised his product on social media and the calls
started coming.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
They say, that's amazing.
Speaker 3 (34:25):
We need to do my store.
Speaker 10 (34:27):
When can you come over.
Speaker 6 (34:28):
His most recent success story is Christoph's Jewelers at Westfield
Fashion Square in Sherman Oaks. Know it well, conveniently close
to a mall exit.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
By the way, this is that mall that has the
rotating sushi bar. You know, they've got the little cart.
It's like the train that runs around revolving sushi. Unrelated
important context.
Speaker 6 (34:51):
The jeweler had been hit earlier this year, but on Wednesday,
as hard as they tried, the thieves couldn't break the
new cases and not one piece of jewelry was lost.
Now reinforce doors and windows are popping up all around la.
Speaker 4 (35:07):
It is so incredible and when so much of the
news and I'll be real with you, last three years,
it feels like maybe since twenty twenty one, probably maybe
before that, since the pandemic, there were so many stories
about smash and grabs that I think news people just
started saying, like, we can't do another smash grab store.
Speaker 3 (35:24):
It's all we do is smash grab stories. It is crazy.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
And the fact that they were able to come up
with this polycarbonate, which I'm not really sure how it works.
I don't know that we necessarily get into that in this,
but it is remarkable. And if you'd like to watch this,
you can go to La Man's Unbreakable Glass stops thieves
targeting local stores on the KTLA YouTube page. Maybe, Richie,
we can put that up on our KFI. We can
link to that on our KFI Instagram as well, in
(35:50):
case you want to see Rick Chambers try to bowl
his way through some unbreakable glass. If that man can't
get through it, nobody's getting through it. That's all I
have to say. By the way, Richie, are you still here?
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Are you still hanging?
Speaker 9 (36:05):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (36:06):
Hi, welcome back, Hello, Welcome back from Las Vegas?
Speaker 8 (36:12):
So much fun? A solo trip, solo trip? Yes, of
all places, Vegas?
Speaker 3 (36:17):
What a crazy idea? What happened? Why do that? You know?
Speaker 8 (36:21):
I just was tired of missing out on attending concerts
and shows that my friends didn't want to join me
and I would miss out multiple times. So I decided,
you know what, yolo? So I decided to do So
I went to Vegas by myself. I flew out there
from Burbank, landed there and.
Speaker 4 (36:37):
Great trip that way. It was so much, super easy.
Did you get to see the Backstreet Boys?
Speaker 3 (36:42):
I did not.
Speaker 8 (36:43):
I actually went to go see Ashley Simpson at the Venetian.
Speaker 3 (36:47):
Yeah. Yeah, they're laughing at me. Yeah, I know they are.
Speaker 4 (36:53):
Well do they not know who you are? Because I
know you're the number one Ashley Simpson fan.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
You know, I would like to believe so myself.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
My real question is was she performing or did you
just run into her there?
Speaker 9 (37:01):
No?
Speaker 8 (37:02):
I literally bought tickets for Ashley Simpson.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
How much are those?
Speaker 8 (37:07):
Well, it's at the Venetian at this really intimate, like
you know, residency that she's having.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
I'm sure, and I pay like two hundred and fifty.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
But I sat right.
Speaker 8 (37:16):
It's so intimate, Like my booth was right next to
Jessica Simpsons.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Were you the only person there?
Speaker 6 (37:22):
No?
Speaker 9 (37:23):
Girl?
Speaker 8 (37:23):
Check out their instagram and it's it's pretty lit. It's
so magical. We also have to say, you have to
tell everybody who this new voice is, Oh, that's our
board op slash producer NICKI, Hi.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Nicky, how are you great? It's not Eileen just doing
an accent.
Speaker 11 (37:37):
No, this is Nikki doing her real accent. Actually right,
I'm not British. Many people think I'm British.
Speaker 4 (37:44):
Well, and you think it's funny that he paid two
hundred and fifty dollars, I think it's funny that that
he has two hundred fifty dollars to pay.
Speaker 11 (37:52):
I one time spent seven hundred and fifty dollars to
go see Little Wayne.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
So who am I to judge?
Speaker 4 (37:58):
Oh my god, I don't mean this in a mean way, Richie,
but Lil Wayne and or Little Wayne.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
Lil Wayne and Ashley Simpson are not the same. They're
not the same.
Speaker 8 (38:08):
But if we're talking about the same, didn't Lil Wayne
just have a concert and he was having like a
rock band plane and half of the people that were
there to see him like just dipped out?
Speaker 1 (38:19):
How day?
Speaker 3 (38:19):
Not those who paid seven hundred dollars will tell you
that much.
Speaker 11 (38:22):
That was as straightleyan currency though, So that's like twenty
dollars US got.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
It makes sense? All right?
Speaker 4 (38:29):
Well, very good? I know we're totally out of time here.
We've got a lot more show coming up here in
the next hour. Don't go anywhere.
Speaker 1 (38:35):
