Andy went to see Mike Campbell & The Dirty Knobs play a concert in a beautiful theater in DTLA. Campbell was formerly in Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers — and we all love us some Tom Petty! Carl Erik Rinsch, the director of “47 Ronan,” defrauded Netflix out of $11 million and has now been convicted. What did he spend all those millions on? Investments, crypto, a Ferrari, five Rolls-Royce, luxury bedding, furniture, antiques lawyers, watches and jewelry. He spent nearly $1 million on two Hästens mattresses! How are you celebrating New Year’s Eve in LA this year? What about that pit in your stomach when you receive the DWP bill? One local man in Van Nuys received a staggering utility bill to the tune of more than $13,000! Imagine if Spotify Wrapped was used for other things aside from your music? Well, SNL did just that, but for Uber Eats! Speaking of which, food inflation is still a thing, with food so expensive! Mozzarella sticks are up nearly 40%! Apparently, people can’t afford to order mains, so appetizers are where it’s at.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Hey is camp.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
I am six forty.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
I'm Andy Reesmeyer here on this Sunday, December fourteenth.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
This is the Andy Reesmeyer Show.
Speaker 4 (00:39):
Be with you all the way up until four o'clock.
Still got a lot to get to and then I'll
be back with you tomorrow night, starting at seven pm,
all the way till ten pm, going from Conway to
coast to coast. I believe k Earth one oh one
legendary DJ Shotgun Tom Kelly will be joining us via
(01:00):
the phone. Unfortunately, he's gonna call it. Lives down in
San Diego.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Believe it or not.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
He's got a new book out, did a book signing here.
I interviewed him last week, and.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
It's for fun. I love, you know.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
I love old school La stuff. I love anything with
La legacy. I love anything that has survived in this
town where we tear everything down and rebuild with something else,
anything that has staying power. I am fascinated by give
me a Musso and Frank any day of the week.
I had a lot of real, sort of fun, old
(01:32):
school fuzzy feelings of Los Angeles. Last week I went
to this concert for the Dirty Knobs, which is Mike
Campbell's band. Mike Campbell, of course, was the longtime guitarist
and songwriting partner of Tom Petty. He just reade a
book called Heartbreaker, and as part of his book tour,
he did something much I think is the best way
(01:53):
to do a book tour, which is basically just a concert.
So he was playing down there at the United Artists
Theater on Broadway, which is based I think it's the
same building that was the Ace Hotel on Broadway in
downtown LA and the beautiful theater. You walk in, it
looks almost like a cave. It's this very cool old
school I think it's maybe it's Beaux Arts. I don't
(02:15):
know the architectural style. I don't know if anybody cares
what it is, but it's kind of like being in
a little cave. Stalagtites and stalagmite look in architecture. And
he did a show which was like two hours of
mostly all the songs that he wrote with Tom Petty
over the course of their career, dating back to the
(02:36):
nineteen seventies, and then in between the songs, he'd tell
stories about what it was like being in a band,
and he'd come up with the song and then Tom
Petty would say, I think I know what I can
do with that, and then he'd turn it into something
and then he'd start playing even the Losers, you know,
or then he'd start playing Running Down a Dream and
(02:58):
it was great. I was one hundred percent the youngest
person there by like forty years maybe not forty.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Did you say that was a Dirty Knobs or who
is this a solo show?
Speaker 3 (03:08):
It was Mike Campbell and the Dirty Knobs.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
Okay, so my friend used to play for Dirty Knobs. Yeah,
and I didn't even know that connection. Oh yeah, So
it's Matt log and he now plays for drums for
ac DC.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Wow, yeah, is he single?
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Nicky is always looking for a good musician.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Oh, I'll guilty. I can reach out found out.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
You know.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
So Steve Ferroni is actually the guy who played drums
with him on this show. And I don't know if
you're a Dirty Knobs guy, you know, got a different gig.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
I mean ACDC sounds like it's a pretty good show too.
But Steve Ferronie was also then basically post nineteen ninety two,
Tiny ninety three, the drummer for Tom Petty forever, so
you know, basically since the early nineteen nineties, and so
it's awesome to be able to go and to listen
to Mike play these songs, and Mike sounds a lot
(03:58):
like Tom.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
That sounds like a great show. I love Tom Petty.
I missed his last show.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
It was so unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (04:05):
I mean, but I did see him front row one time.
Oh no way experience, where was that? That was in
San Antonio, Texas many years ago. But I was a
front row and it felt like he was singing to
me the whole time.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I'm sure he was amazing.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
I was there at the second to the last show,
I think, and obviously we didn't know it was going
to be his last shows, but I had, you know,
grown up, you don't realize how much Tom Petty, you know,
until you listen to like a Greatest Hits record or
you go to see him live and you're like.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Every song is a mega hit and you're like, oh yeah,
it takes you back.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It takes you back, And especially if you're learning to
play music or to write music. Tom Petty is like
the Beatles in terms of like you got to study
him because the efficiency that he has with writing, with recording.
You know, there's might there might be only four or
five lines in a tom Petty chorus or a verse.
They're not very complicated lines. He doesn't have overly worthy
(05:05):
lyric stanzas, but they are perfectly efficient.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
Yeah, he's one of those artists and there's certain artists
and he's not like the best singer.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
He's not like nobody's got it, but it's their soul
to it. Just it's amazing, it's just beautiful.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
It was really cool to listen to do even the Losers,
which you know is always like a favorite for sure
from from the early eighties.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
I think, is you know this?
Speaker 5 (05:28):
I mean, you're you're a little young frist Did your
mom listen to this?
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Not? Really, My mom was not a big petty person.
My parents were into Van Morrison almost exclusively, like in
the sense that like that's the only band that they
ever listened to, only artists they ever listened to. So
I could, like I have, I could like fall asleep
with my eyes closed, I could probably recite all the
lyrics to Moondance avalon Sunset whatever. But the you know,
I think being in the Midwest and being in a band,
(05:53):
and especially Indiana Boys on the Indiana Nights, you know,
like that kind of thing. We all just learned how
to play songs like Tom Petty and he just he
just made you feel like you could be anybody and
look like anybody and be a rock star. And I
think that that was why it was such a big deal.
And then my band for years, you know, we covered
Petty every once in a while. You got to throw
in a Petty Everybody knows it, you know. I think
(06:15):
I think Tom Petty also before he died, people didn't
really respect and appreciate him for who he is and
who he was and how influential he was. Now he
does have sort of because it's what happens when people
passed away, celebrities especially, you know, they become these legends,
They become these big, bigger than themselves stories. But I
(06:38):
think that there was just sort of this understanding that like, yeah,
it's a Petty song, he was there or whatever. But
I don't know that people really cared about it like
they do now. I'm glad they do it, because man,
what a show. And like I said, Thursday night, got
home real late, had to work the morning show on
KTLA Friday morning.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Felt it.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
I remember leaving going to the show like six thirty pm,
passing KTLA down the one o one, being like, I
gotta be back there on TV in twelve hours, and
I was like, oh God.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
And then coming home and.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
My buddy, who is the greatest, the greatest dude ever,
oldest friend of all time, his birthday was last week
and he's also a huge Petty fan, and he was like, man,
I'd love to go see the show. Let's go do
it cool because we had seen Petty before together, we
saw Mike and the Dirty Knobs at the Mint in
the past. And we go down there and I drove
down he Hubert and we're leaving and it's like ten fifteen,
(07:32):
ten thirty and he's like, hey, can you give me
a ride home?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
And it's the.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Guy's birthday, right, so I can't say no. And he
lives in the Grove area, like Fairfax. I'm up in
the valley. The concert's downtown do the math here. There's
no freeway that gets anywhere close to the Grove, so
I gotta drive up. I drive up and it's like
(07:58):
I added probably forty five minutes to my to my
commute going home, and I had to wake up the
next morning and then go do the show. But listen,
these are all things that I did to myself. And
I would always give my buddy a ride no matter
what birthday are not somebody.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Yeah, he was very nice.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
But then you don't want to say, like, I do
have to wake up to it because it's his birthday,
you know.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Yeah, you know, you say, I've got to wake up early,
but hey, let's go out when I have a day off.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
No, no, but and I'm glad I did it, you know.
And and the reality is I was tired that morning.
But luckily caffeine exists, and it's a there's no cap
on how much legally you can drink.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
So you gotta have balance, right, and you work hard.
You gotta play.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
You gotta play hard, work hard. As Michael Scott said,
it's IM six forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
When you cover a Tom Petty song or you sing
a Tom Petty song, you can't not sing like it.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
You know, you gotta do.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
The well wall back now, won't we turned around?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
It just it feels good. It feels good to do that.
You just feel it's like, no.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Matter what, you get a little bit more Gainesville, Florida,
it just sounds like a Nasali Bob Dylan. Yeah, that
I think is kind of what he was going for,
and I was, I think he's a better singer than
Bob Dylan. You listened to like the Traveling Wilbury's you
know where he ended up actually singing with Bob Dylan
and a bunch of other legends from that era, Roy Orbison.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Jeff Lynn from Yes Well you.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Know in Jefferson It's right, George Harrison too, and Jeff Lynn,
and he produced a bunch of records. I think Into
the Great White Open was a jeff Lynn album, and
so was Full Moon Fever and those are you know,
those are just iconic. He did Mike. Mike Campbell did
one of the Traveling Wilburry song by the way, Sam, Hello,
(09:49):
nice to hear from you, buddy. Yeah, Hey, it's really
good hearing from you too.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Man.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Where are you?
Speaker 7 (09:55):
I'm right here in the studio here, it's actually upstairs
running the Chargers game. And then I saw a client
and now I'm here. Oh you saw a client. They
let you do that here at work, Hey, you give it.
They could be soundproof booths here. It's great.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I also heard the shout out to Marlee, and I
was loving that.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Marley gets all the love.
Speaker 7 (10:14):
He's like the workhorse of the of the Chargers football team.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
He goes and what he said.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
I think that the line was like Charlie who incidentally
Marley rather who incidentally is a dog or something like that.
Speaker 5 (10:26):
To be a dog that happens to be a dog.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
That's right. Yeah, it's really good stuff. Is Marley with
us today? Yes, Marley's here, of course. Well I have
to go over and say hello in a little bit.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I think Marley needs to come visit us all.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Oh man, that guy he's like up there as a
mascot of this station.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
He really is.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
He Handel has told me himself that if he's in
the building, I'm not allowed here without Marley.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I think that's a good rule.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
Yeah, did you? That's that's what that Zelman's money can
allow you to do. They need to have doggies, amons,
because Marley's breadth of buddy. I'll tell you it's amazing
that that stuff. Actually, it does work very well. Hey,
speaking of rank, did you hear about this guy? The
director of forty seven rown in. His name is Eric Rinch,
(11:14):
Carl Eric Rinch. He had been on trial for basically
ripping off Netflix for eleven million dollars. He was convicted
on Thursday in New York at Federal prosecutors say that
eleven million dollars was meant to go to finish a
TV show that Netflix had already invested forty four million
(11:37):
dollars in. The show was a sci fi epic called
White Horse. Allegedly, it was going well enough that Netflix said, Okay,
we'll give you another eleven million dollars to finish this show.
And did the money go to make the show well not,
according to Netflix and a US district judge, ten million
(11:58):
dollars of that money, after it was wired over to
the production company in twenty twenty, went to a personal
brokerage account, and half of that money in two months
was lost via investments in the stock market and crypto,
according to the indictment. The other amount of money was
(12:20):
spent on things like a Ferrari five, rolls, Royces, watches, clothing,
luxury betting, and Linen's credit card bills. Attorneys that he
could then pay to sue Netflix for more money, and
some lawyers who were working on his divorce. You got
to feel for this guy a little bit. I don't
know if you do, but I think that is an
immense amount of craziness going on in your life, sir.
(12:44):
Around four million was spent on furniture and antiques. The cars, though,
cost over two and a half million. But look at this.
Two mattresses and betting nearly a million dollars on two mattresses,
and you might be like, well, that is insane. What
kind of mattresses are they? They're Swedish mattresses. They're from
(13:06):
a company called Hastens, and they have one of these
a few of these mattress stores in Los Angeles. When
I first moved to LA fifteen years ago or so,
got a little apartment in West Hollywood. It was me
and a bunch of divorced momps, kind of a fun vibe.
Didn't know what I was walking into, but hey, it
worked out.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Oh they would have loved you.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
It was really fun.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
It was like like I have an upstairs neighbor would
just come down randomly, just completely blotto, her mouth covered
in red wine. You know, like the teeth staining. You're like,
oh no, and she'd bust through the door. I'd be like,
sitting there, didn't have any money, didn't do anything, was
just sitting there watching TV. And she'd come in with
like a pair of keys, just drunk and be like,
(13:50):
I stole the laugh Factory owner's car. Can you help
me get rid of what's going on in this place?
But I was looking for a bed because I just
moved in. So I'm walking down Robertson Boulevard and I'm like, oh,
there's a there's a mattress store. Let me go check
it out. So I go in and I'm inquiring and
it seems nice. And I lay down on the mattress
(14:13):
and I'm checking it out, and he's like, yeah, this
is this one starts at forty and I was like
forty what forty dollars? It's like, no, forty thousand dollars.
Their starting mattress starts at forty thousand dollars. It's made
of like horsehair, Swedish craftsmanship.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
I don't know, man, worse here, there's not sound like
something I want to sleep on.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
I cannot I cannot tell you how. And I so
it was so so comfortable, and it goes. They have
mattresses that go all the way up to like five
hundred thousand dollars apiece, and Hastens, you know, like I said,
they're still in business somehow because I guess there's enough
rigche people to keep this keep this thing going. It's
all natural, you know, there's no off gassing. They say
that it's really you know, better for you or whatever,
(14:57):
and it is really comfortable. And over the years, I
still don't have money to afford a forty thousand dollars
mattress by any stretch of the imagination, but I have
been back. I was killing some time in Santa Monica.
There was one on Montana, and I popped in to
the Hasting store and I took another little quick trip
down the forty thousand dollars mattress road just to see
(15:18):
what that was like, just a quick fifteen minute nap.
And the guy said, yeah, you know, it's still forty
thousand dollars, and here you can try the one that's fifty,
and then the one that's eighty, and the one that's
two hundred and the one that's four hundred. And now
that he calls me. Almost every every month I get
a phone call from him. Still can't afford a mattress.
(15:41):
But anyway, So Carl Rinch was convicted. He could face
up to ninety years in prison, but it looks like
he probably will not serve that much time. There was
no comment from Netflix to MSN on Thursday his attorney.
Rynch's attorney, though, denounced the verse predict and said it
(16:01):
was more of a contract dispute. Okay, sounds good. Do
you ever do those year wrapped things from Spotify?
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Yeah, yeah? What was on your top this year?
Speaker 5 (16:17):
The Beatles?
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Oh that's a great one.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
That's a little bit bad.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Oh shots fire right, you are right?
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Bring it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:26):
What was it? What was yours?
Speaker 5 (16:28):
I was the top five percent for Rue Paul. Now
she's got great taste.
Speaker 8 (16:34):
There you go.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
Trumps the Beatles any day, right on. Songs are so fun.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Yeah, I agree with you. Also, I don't think the
Beatles is embarrassment at all. It is just kind of
surprising because I feel like the ubiquity of the Beatles
means that you are actually going out and seeking out
listening to the Beatles albums over and over and over again.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
What were the songs that are.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
Or what listening age seventy eight.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Mine's like a D and five.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Mine was all like jazz, like low fi jazz and
stupid stuff like that.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
Apparently I'm a twenty four year old twink.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Oh good, well, I mean there you go.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
You know we're a well rounded group.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Pe that's right, we're representing everybody. Well.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
SNL has a sketch that I will play for you
when we come back about a different kind of wrapped.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Very funny. You don't want to miss it.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
IM six forty, I'm Andy Reesmeyer're live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
I think I will also be Andy Reesmier tomorrow on Monday,
December fifteenth, when I'm here from seven to ten pm.
Anytime after that, I cannot guarantee who I will be.
You know, it's all about reinvention in the new year.
Been looking for things to do for New Year's Eve
and if you have any recommendations, please let us know
(17:51):
what would be a fun thing to do at Andy
Reesmier on Instagram. You could message me there, or you
can also leave us a message on the iHeartRadio app.
I think that I may ask tomorrow, like, what's the
New Year's Eve plan? I know it's a little far
from now, But the problem is that like New Year's
Eve is one of those things where it's like an
obligatory party. It costs bookoo bucks, as the French would say,
(18:16):
and if you don't do it right, you feel like
you only get one chance to do it right.
Speaker 9 (18:22):
You know.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
I've done things in the past and went down to.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
The Queen Mary that did that a couple of years ago.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
That was really fun. I did the Union Station party
that was really cool too. Yeah, sometimes you just like
to sit at home, sit at home on the couch.
I missed it one year.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
I missed the ball drop because I like was so
bored watching Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen that I like,
I just got up to go to the bathroom, and
I like realized while I was in the bathroom, I
was like, Oh, it's happening. It's New Year's The group
that I was with was displeased. Also been up to
(18:59):
Saya Barber that was kind of fun. Did that a
couple of years ago. Anyway, let us know, we will
play your messages on the iHeartRadio app coming up also.
Chris Merrill will be joining us in ten minutes or so,
maybe a little bit longer, and we'll talk about what's
happening in his show. A lot of stuff going on,
a lot of live content happening all night tonight. And
one of the things that we love talking about is
(19:21):
ooh the pit in your stomach when you receive the
DWP bill. It comes but every two months through the
mail slot. Oh, look at that, it's the DWP bill.
What will it be this year?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
This month? Rather will it?
Speaker 4 (19:40):
Will the number start with a one thousand? Will it
start with a thirteen thousand?
Speaker 3 (19:47):
For this guy?
Speaker 8 (19:48):
Did your payment of thirteen thousand, sixty three dollars and
forty five cents.
Speaker 9 (19:52):
March twenty twenty five water and power dis connection notice
sent to the Van Night's home. Will Ventries moved into
you back in twenty twenty. That's when he insists he
notified the agency of his new address repeatedly.
Speaker 8 (20:07):
I was not getting bills then, and this was all
before the COVID moratorium began in March twenty twenty. Once
that began, then I started getting on holds and they're like, oh,
it's going to be forty five minutes on holds. You know,
but we're not going to shut off anyone's power. Don't
worry about it. And I was like, okay, well I've tried.
I've asked them so many times to send the bill.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
Five years later, that thirteen thousand dollars plus bill. So
he gets to writing emails.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
We call this NAT sound in a package. It doesn't
work as well on radio.
Speaker 9 (20:40):
I earned that thirteen thousand dollars plus bill. So he
gets to writing emails. He's making phone calls until he
finally reaches a supervisor at LEDWP and he.
Speaker 8 (20:53):
Says, you know what I think and quote fifty to
fifty our fault, your fault for a WHI sending you
the bill for us?
Speaker 4 (21:01):
And he's been trying to get them to send him
the bill. You're obviously not just gonna pay Willy nearly
anything to DWP. You don't know where it's gonna go.
It sounds like he didn't even have an account at
some point. How hard did he try to get them
to send him a bill?
Speaker 8 (21:16):
I don't know for us not sending you the bills
for us, ignoring your many attempts to get the bill
sent many attempts get the bill sent to the correct address.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
I feel like, if you are trying in earnest to
get the government to send you this is the only
time in your life ever where the government won't send
you a bill for something for some reason. You're falling
through the cracks, and you are being the stand up
citizen to go out and to try to get them
to send you the bill so you can pay them
what you owe. It's on them. If they're not doing it,
it's on them. I think this guy gets.
Speaker 8 (21:48):
A pass address for us not following the standard protocol,
which is sending the delinquency and the shut off notice
to the service address regardless of the billing address.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Oh, he's getting in the weeds. Now, I love it.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Okay, So it sounds like they were setting They even
acknowledged that they didn't send the shut off notice to
the right place.
Speaker 8 (22:05):
He says, fifty to fifty our fault, your fault, so
let me take off two five hundred dollars.
Speaker 9 (22:10):
Paperwork shows that reduction, as well as Will's three thousand
dollars payment, with the remainder going on a payment planted.
But then he gets a new bill with more new charges.
Speaker 8 (22:21):
They said, well, since twenty twenty two, for the past
three years, we've not been reading your water meter.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
So these are some estimated charges. Even if you are
paying your bill. Do you know that your your water
bill mostly is an estimated charge. They basically say, we
think you probably are using this much. That's if you
don't have a smart meter. So these are some estimated charges.
So much around five thousand dollars, So.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
We're back to a how much then it was up
to like seven what was that?
Speaker 5 (22:55):
So we're back to a home mucht Then it.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Was up to.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
Someone's tummy.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
He has like a little snarl in his throat.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
You know, you're like a little bit of spit gets
stuck in your throat a little bit there.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
And you got a much.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
He gurgle.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
It's like his inner child is just you get all theirs.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
So we're back to a low much now it was
up to like seventeen thousand dollars in total.
Speaker 10 (23:22):
Now it doesn't surprise me at all, unfortunately, you know,
I have I get calls and emails on a regular
basis from people who have generally similar situations.
Speaker 9 (23:34):
Timothy Blood was one of the attorneys representing LADWP customers
in twenty seventeen. The agency then agreed to a multi
million dollar settlement paying customers claiming they were overcharged during
the rollout of a new billing system.
Speaker 10 (23:49):
There's no reason that they should be having so many
customer service problems over so many years.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
That the rate payers are not their enemy. The rate
payers are their customers, and they really need to treat
them asself.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
Preach sister, and they really need to treat them as such.
Speaker 9 (24:05):
Now. Late tonight I did hear from LEDWP. We've been
going back and forth, and you know what, I just
got a statement from them saying that they are, after
looking at this very unique case, they are going to
waive the majority of the disputed ballance on his unpaid water.
Speaker 4 (24:22):
Isn't it unreal that if he had not ended up
as an investigation on Fox eleven, that this never would
have resolved this way. The only reason he isn't paying
thirteen thousand dollars is because they do not want the
bad press, not because it's the right thing to do,
(24:45):
and that the bureaucracy has sorted itself out and power bill.
Speaker 9 (24:49):
I'm waiting to see what amount that is, but it
does seem that they're understanding that something really unique happened
here and.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Will unique is like.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Unique has something of value, I think right, like the
unique seems like, oh, that's like a different flavor, that's
a cool color, that's an odd hat, it's unique.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Ain't nothing unique about this.
Speaker 9 (25:15):
And we'll be able to help them out, so we'll
see what happens. But it's a problem for a lot
of people. We're gonna put their entire statement on our
website at foxlay dot com and some of the links
of some of the groups and some of the efforts
to try to ban people together so they can try to.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Get someone help.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Yeah, it's so true, and it's interesting what he was
saying about how like, look, the LEDWP shouldn't treat you
as the enemy the Department of Power and Water that
we are their customers. Doesn't feel like it. I moved
into a new place about a year ago, had the inspection,
everything went well, got a notification that the LEDWP had
(25:54):
not completed hooking up the power back to the house
when they had replace the box, the electrical box. It
was like a temporary fix, so the cables were coming
from the power line hanging on the roof, right kind
of dangerous. So I said, all right, fair enough, called LEDWP.
(26:15):
They sent a guy out. This is months afterwards, of course,
and they looked at it and they said, oh, yeah,
you're right, but also we don't have any record that
this was approved, this changing of this, this box, upgrading
your service. And I said, well I don't I wouldn't
even live here. I had nothing to do with any
of that. That happened years before. They remodeled the house, way
(26:35):
before I ever bought it. Well, sorry, who cares. What
you're going to have to do is have a guy
come out. You got to know all this, like, got
to move this pipe over two inches, got to drop
it down three inches, The conduit has to be I
got to pull out the pipe from the stucco, got
to redo it, you know, five thousand dollars of course,
and hey, if you don't do it, you're going to
(26:56):
get charged every single day for being in violation.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
LEDWP. Can you help me out here? Nope? So I
did it.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
I had it done when they had a guy come
out and guess what, still wasn't right. So I had
to have the guy come back out and fix it,
do something different. And finally when he got there, the
inspector from LEDWP came over and looked at the house
and said, okay, great, you did the work.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Your gate is swinging the wrong way. You just can't win.
You can't win.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
This is the Andy Reesmire Show. We are live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio app on KFI.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
If you're looking for a fun time in fantasy land.
Old Boy, Oh Boys, Los Angeles is the place to be.
Broadway in Hollywood. They are the group of promoters that
are bringing I think some of the greatest shows here
from Broadway to of course Hollywood. I've told you about
the Back to the Future musical that's always fun, the
Harry Potter musical.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
They did that last year.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Now at the Mantlebain Theater in Hollywood, Dungeons and Dragons
becomes more immersive than ever in a stage play called
The Twenty Sided Tavern.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Take a listen.
Speaker 11 (28:16):
The stage is set for a unique adventure every night
at the Twenty Sided Tavern.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Whether they're toasting the shots.
Speaker 11 (28:23):
Of celebration or rolling TORNI ship, it's dangerous bones.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
Every decision is yours to make join the action on.
Speaker 11 (28:31):
Stage or choose your hero's backways from your seat. The
spell has been cast and the only missing ingredient is
you welcome.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Adventures with the Bundy sided tag.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
How hype it is that?
Speaker 4 (28:47):
Here to tell us more about the twenty side of
Tavern is one of the cast members from the play.
Will Champion joins us here on the Andy Reesemeyer Show.
Good afternoon to you, sir.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
How you doing.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I'm absolutely fabulous. Thank you for having me mate.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Now you are a brit Does that mean that you
are also the drummer of Coldplay?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Or is that just a coincidence?
Speaker 2 (29:06):
You know what. We haven't checked all the record there,
but we have a suspicion he may be related to us.
It's made for some very confusing private messages, I perceived.
I'll tell you about I'm.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
Sure so if anybody doesn't know, Wild Champion is also
the drummer of Coldplay, and of course being a British
person in performing something. What is your he's very famously
rocking the.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Exposed dome. What's your hair situation?
Speaker 2 (29:34):
I thankfully at the moment, will have a very full
head of hair, and that's a nice differential between the parent.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
There you go, that's it. And also how many millions
of dollars. We will not get into that, but let's
talk about this show. I was so lucky to meet
many of the cast members. I'm going to do a
piece I believe it'll air on Tuesday about this show
that is playing right now at the Montleban Theater in Hollywood,
and it's a nine hundred person venue and people are
going to experience Dungeons and Dragon in a stage play
(30:01):
situation that's interactive. Now, for anybody who doesn't know, can
you just tell us what Dungeons and Dragons is?
Speaker 9 (30:07):
So?
Speaker 2 (30:08):
At its most base level, Dungeons and Dragons is what's
called a table top role playing game where you traditionally
are all sitting around like your living room table or
like on the floor in your basement, and you're telling
a story together. You've created these fantasy characters using a
systems of rules and guidelines that's now and it's fifth
or sixth edition, depending on who you ask, and you're
(30:30):
working together with a dungeon master who's sort of creating
the framework for the story you're telling. And then all
the choices that you and your friends around that table
make will tell a completely unique fantasy adventure.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
Now this is something that was for a long time
kind of like nerdy do weebe? But now I feel
like is very much mainstream, Like people are to know
about this everywhere, and you now are also taking an
opportunity here to move from the basement into the big
stage with a full on, real production, big.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Time, you know. I mean, it's sort of like it
feels kind of what you dream of when you start
playing a game like Dungeon and Dragons in your parents' basement,
that your imagination is picturing something much larger and much
more grand, with all the costumes and set pieces and whatnot.
And what this play does is actually brings that to life.
We have a brilliant, massive screen that projects a lot
(31:28):
of the images and actually that you see happening on stage.
People are making sound effects in real time, and whatever
characters the audience chooses the three players to be that
particular evening have their own unique fantastical outfits that get
put on right at the beginning of the show.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
And then there's something with the QR codes where all
the audience members go in, they scan a QR code,
and then throughout the show they can vote on the
things that are happening and sort of inform what goes
next with the play.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
It's not even sort of inform anybody who comes to
see the show. We don't just all the audience. They're
our fellow adventurers. They're the other players at the table.
Because the power for what we do, who we meet,
and truthfully, where our story honestly ends is completely in
the hands of the audience. We make some of the
decisions for sure, and there's a sort of a skeletal
framework for how this show is supposed to move, but
(32:18):
what the audience wants, what you guys coming to see
the show want to happen, is what is going to happen.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
It's two hours of complete improv with a sort of
general base of where we're going to go. But that
makes it special and different for every night, which I
will say is exactly like this radio show.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Isn't that I.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
Try to figure out what I'm going to say, but
when I get in there, it sort of completely changes
its different. How have the audiences been here in LA?
You guys have been playing since just after Thanksgiving?
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Yeah, I mean it shouldn't come as a surprise, give
that LA is sort of the hub for all things
nerdy these days, and I would really credit that the
renaissance of D and D over the last ten years
has been based here in LA and the audiences here
have reflected that they've been absolutely phenomenal. How is a
nice mix of people who have played before and people
who are completely new to it. But everyone here is
(33:04):
so willing to completely invest and buy into the story,
and even people who have never rolled the twenty sided
by before in their life find themselves screaming and hollering
at the top of their lungs when somebody rolled the
nactual twenty. You know, it's a really special experience out
here at mufvel Man.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Yeah, I'm excited for you. I know you're going to
Scottsdale next, which is great because you will be there
at least until the twenty first, at least in LA.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
But you're going to stay in the warm, and I
love that.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
We've got a beautiful day, yeah, and there's no better
way I think to spend it a beautiful day than
inside watching a play.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I happen to agree review.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
But so, do you have a show tonight?
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Yes, we're actually in the middle of a matinee right now.
And then there's another show. Oh my god, what are
they a Sunday?
Speaker 3 (33:48):
So do you need to get back on stage?
Speaker 10 (33:50):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
So that's the beauty of it is. There are nine
of us in the cast, and there are five positions
on stage, a couple of which, in fact, three of
which today are filled by our guest stars, some of
these sort of icons in the D and D world.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Oh that's fun.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
So we get to rotate in and out a lot,
and most of us, in fact all of us, play
multiple roles in the show, so you're always seeing the
same group of people in different roles every night. And
as a result, I'm just here is back up today
just in case anyone happens to have a nasty fall
on stage. I'm there just in case.
Speaker 4 (34:24):
You know, hopefully that will not happen, but at least
you'll be ready in the case that it does. Will
Champion from Dungeons and Dragons the twenty Sided Tavern. It
is now playing at the Monobne Theater. The shows last
all the way through Sunday, December twenty first, So if
you want to get tickets, how can people find it?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Honestly, you can find them online at our website or
you can come straight to the box office here on
Hollywood and Vine and get rush tickets to day off.
It's a great way to come see it if you're
feeling spur of the moment. Love it.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
That website Broadway in Hollywood, dot com of course, and
you can also just google the Dungeons and Dragons twenty
sided Tavern show playing at the Mantleblane Theater in Hollywood.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Will break a leg. Thank you so much for being
on the show.
Speaker 4 (35:10):
I appreciate you, and we'll see you out there hoping
to roll twenties for sure.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Absolutely, thank you. Mate.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
There he goes Will Champion, not from Coldplay, but I
don't mind. I Actually I prefer talk to that guy
than the guy from Coldplay. I bet the guy from
Coldplace is nice too. Really good voice, don't you think,
Eileen one hundred?
Speaker 3 (35:30):
That accent.
Speaker 4 (35:31):
They could say literally anything and I would be like, yeah, okay, sure,
well that sounds right.
Speaker 5 (35:37):
No, it's great.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
Another hour show coming up here, including a director who
defrauded Netflix out of eleven million dollars.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
Will tell you what.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
Crazy things he spent it on he was convicted. And
have you been on a Hollywood backlot tour? Lately, as
Hollywood changes, as we move from the backlot to the
green screen to the volume. Unfortunately, going by the wayside
is the relevance of the Hollywood Backlot Tour. We'll get
(36:07):
into that, plus the latest news from the KFI twenty
four hour newsroom.
Speaker 3 (36:11):
It's KFI AM six forty. We're live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio
Speaker 1 (36:14):

Be with you all the way up until four o'clock.
Still got a lot to get to and then I'll

all the way till ten pm, going from Conway to
coast to coast. I believe k Earth one oh one
legendary DJ Shotgun Tom Kelly will be joining us via
(01:00):
the phone. Unfortunately, he's gonna call it. Lives down in
San Diego.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Believe it or not.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
He's got a new book out, did a book signing here.
I interviewed him last week, and.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
It's for fun. I love, you know.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
I love old school La stuff. I love anything with
La legacy. I love anything that has survived in this
town where we tear everything down and rebuild with something else,
anything that has staying power. I am fascinated by give
me a Musso and Frank any day of the week.
I had a lot of real, sort of fun, old
(01:32):
school fuzzy feelings of Los Angeles. Last week I went
to this concert for the Dirty Knobs, which is Mike
Campbell's band. Mike Campbell, of course, was the longtime guitarist
and songwriting partner of Tom Petty. He just reade a
book called Heartbreaker, and as part of his book tour,
he did something much I think is the best way
(01:53):
to do a book tour, which is basically just a concert.
So he was playing down there at the United Artists
Theater on Broadway, which is based I think it's the
same building that was the Ace Hotel on Broadway in
downtown LA and the beautiful theater. You walk in, it
looks almost like a cave. It's this very cool old
school I think it's maybe it's Beaux Arts. I don't
(02:15):
know the architectural style. I don't know if anybody cares
what it is, but it's kind of like being in
a little cave. Stalagtites and stalagmite look in architecture. And
he did a show which was like two hours of
mostly all the songs that he wrote with Tom Petty
over the course of their career, dating back to the
(02:36):
nineteen seventies, and then in between the songs, he'd tell
stories about what it was like being in a band,
and he'd come up with the song and then Tom
Petty would say, I think I know what I can
do with that, and then he'd turn it into something
and then he'd start playing even the Losers, you know,
or then he'd start playing Running Down a Dream and
(02:58):
it was great. I was one hundred percent the youngest
person there by like forty years maybe not forty.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
Did you say that was a Dirty Knobs or who
is this a solo show?
Speaker 3 (03:08):
It was Mike Campbell and the Dirty Knobs.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
Okay, so my friend used to play for Dirty Knobs. Yeah,
and I didn't even know that connection. Oh yeah, So
it's Matt log and he now plays for drums for
ac DC.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Wow, yeah, is he single?
Speaker 4 (03:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Nicky is always looking for a good musician.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Oh, I'll guilty. I can reach out found out.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
You know.
Speaker 4 (03:28):
So Steve Ferroni is actually the guy who played drums
with him on this show. And I don't know if
you're a Dirty Knobs guy, you know, got a different gig.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
I mean ACDC sounds like it's a pretty good show too.
But Steve Ferronie was also then basically post nineteen ninety two,
Tiny ninety three, the drummer for Tom Petty forever, so
you know, basically since the early nineteen nineties, and so
it's awesome to be able to go and to listen
to Mike play these songs, and Mike sounds a lot
(03:58):
like Tom.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
That sounds like a great show. I love Tom Petty.
I missed his last show.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
It was so unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (04:05):
I mean, but I did see him front row one time.
Oh no way experience, where was that? That was in
San Antonio, Texas many years ago. But I was a
front row and it felt like he was singing to
me the whole time.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I'm sure he was amazing.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
I was there at the second to the last show,
I think, and obviously we didn't know it was going
to be his last shows, but I had, you know,
grown up, you don't realize how much Tom Petty, you know,
until you listen to like a Greatest Hits record or
you go to see him live and you're like.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Every song is a mega hit and you're like, oh yeah,
it takes you back.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It takes you back, And especially if you're learning to
play music or to write music. Tom Petty is like
the Beatles in terms of like you got to study
him because the efficiency that he has with writing, with recording.
You know, there's might there might be only four or
five lines in a tom Petty chorus or a verse.
They're not very complicated lines. He doesn't have overly worthy
(05:05):
lyric stanzas, but they are perfectly efficient.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
Yeah, he's one of those artists and there's certain artists
and he's not like the best singer.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
He's not like nobody's got it, but it's their soul
to it. Just it's amazing, it's just beautiful.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
It was really cool to listen to do even the Losers,
which you know is always like a favorite for sure
from from the early eighties.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
I think, is you know this?
Speaker 5 (05:28):
I mean, you're you're a little young frist Did your
mom listen to this?
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Not? Really, My mom was not a big petty person.
My parents were into Van Morrison almost exclusively, like in
the sense that like that's the only band that they
ever listened to, only artists they ever listened to. So
I could, like I have, I could like fall asleep
with my eyes closed, I could probably recite all the
lyrics to Moondance avalon Sunset whatever. But the you know,
I think being in the Midwest and being in a band,
(05:53):
and especially Indiana Boys on the Indiana Nights, you know,
like that kind of thing. We all just learned how
to play songs like Tom Petty and he just he
just made you feel like you could be anybody and
look like anybody and be a rock star. And I
think that that was why it was such a big deal.
And then my band for years, you know, we covered
Petty every once in a while. You got to throw
in a Petty Everybody knows it, you know. I think
(06:15):
I think Tom Petty also before he died, people didn't
really respect and appreciate him for who he is and
who he was and how influential he was. Now he
does have sort of because it's what happens when people
passed away, celebrities especially, you know, they become these legends,
They become these big, bigger than themselves stories. But I
(06:38):
think that there was just sort of this understanding that like, yeah,
it's a Petty song, he was there or whatever. But
I don't know that people really cared about it like
they do now. I'm glad they do it, because man,
what a show. And like I said, Thursday night, got
home real late, had to work the morning show on
KTLA Friday morning.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Felt it.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
I remember leaving going to the show like six thirty pm,
passing KTLA down the one o one, being like, I
gotta be back there on TV in twelve hours, and
I was like, oh God.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
And then coming home and.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
My buddy, who is the greatest, the greatest dude ever,
oldest friend of all time, his birthday was last week
and he's also a huge Petty fan, and he was like, man,
I'd love to go see the show. Let's go do
it cool because we had seen Petty before together, we
saw Mike and the Dirty Knobs at the Mint in
the past. And we go down there and I drove
down he Hubert and we're leaving and it's like ten fifteen,
(07:32):
ten thirty and he's like, hey, can you give me
a ride home?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
And it's the.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Guy's birthday, right, so I can't say no. And he
lives in the Grove area, like Fairfax. I'm up in
the valley. The concert's downtown do the math here. There's
no freeway that gets anywhere close to the Grove, so
I gotta drive up. I drive up and it's like
(07:58):
I added probably forty five minutes to my to my
commute going home, and I had to wake up the
next morning and then go do the show. But listen,
these are all things that I did to myself. And
I would always give my buddy a ride no matter
what birthday are not somebody.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Yeah, he was very nice.
Speaker 4 (08:14):
But then you don't want to say, like, I do
have to wake up to it because it's his birthday,
you know.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
Yeah, you know, you say, I've got to wake up early,
but hey, let's go out when I have a day off.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
No, no, but and I'm glad I did it, you know.
And and the reality is I was tired that morning.
But luckily caffeine exists, and it's a there's no cap
on how much legally you can drink.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
So you gotta have balance, right, and you work hard.
You gotta play.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
You gotta play hard, work hard. As Michael Scott said,
it's IM six forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
When you cover a Tom Petty song or you sing
a Tom Petty song, you can't not sing like it.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
You know, you gotta do.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
The well wall back now, won't we turned around?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
It just it feels good. It feels good to do that.
You just feel it's like, no.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Matter what, you get a little bit more Gainesville, Florida,
it just sounds like a Nasali Bob Dylan. Yeah, that
I think is kind of what he was going for,
and I was, I think he's a better singer than
Bob Dylan. You listened to like the Traveling Wilbury's you
know where he ended up actually singing with Bob Dylan
and a bunch of other legends from that era, Roy Orbison.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Jeff Lynn from Yes Well you.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Know in Jefferson It's right, George Harrison too, and Jeff Lynn,
and he produced a bunch of records. I think Into
the Great White Open was a jeff Lynn album, and
so was Full Moon Fever and those are you know,
those are just iconic. He did Mike. Mike Campbell did
one of the Traveling Wilburry song by the way, Sam, Hello,
(09:49):
nice to hear from you, buddy. Yeah, Hey, it's really
good hearing from you too.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Man.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
Where are you?
Speaker 7 (09:55):
I'm right here in the studio here, it's actually upstairs
running the Chargers game. And then I saw a client
and now I'm here. Oh you saw a client. They
let you do that here at work, Hey, you give it.
They could be soundproof booths here. It's great.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I also heard the shout out to Marlee, and I
was loving that.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Marley gets all the love.
Speaker 7 (10:14):
He's like the workhorse of the of the Chargers football team.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
He goes and what he said.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
I think that the line was like Charlie who incidentally
Marley rather who incidentally is a dog or something like that.
Speaker 5 (10:26):
To be a dog that happens to be a dog.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
That's right. Yeah, it's really good stuff. Is Marley with
us today? Yes, Marley's here, of course. Well I have
to go over and say hello in a little bit.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I think Marley needs to come visit us all.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Oh man, that guy he's like up there as a
mascot of this station.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
He really is.
Speaker 7 (10:44):
He Handel has told me himself that if he's in
the building, I'm not allowed here without Marley.
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I think that's a good rule.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
Yeah, did you? That's that's what that Zelman's money can
allow you to do. They need to have doggies, amons,
because Marley's breadth of buddy. I'll tell you it's amazing
that that stuff. Actually, it does work very well. Hey,
speaking of rank, did you hear about this guy? The
director of forty seven rown in. His name is Eric Rinch,
(11:14):
Carl Eric Rinch. He had been on trial for basically
ripping off Netflix for eleven million dollars. He was convicted
on Thursday in New York at Federal prosecutors say that
eleven million dollars was meant to go to finish a
TV show that Netflix had already invested forty four million
(11:37):
dollars in. The show was a sci fi epic called
White Horse. Allegedly, it was going well enough that Netflix said, Okay,
we'll give you another eleven million dollars to finish this show.
And did the money go to make the show well not,
according to Netflix and a US district judge, ten million
(11:58):
dollars of that money, after it was wired over to
the production company in twenty twenty, went to a personal
brokerage account, and half of that money in two months
was lost via investments in the stock market and crypto,
according to the indictment. The other amount of money was
(12:20):
spent on things like a Ferrari five, rolls, Royces, watches, clothing,
luxury betting, and Linen's credit card bills. Attorneys that he
could then pay to sue Netflix for more money, and
some lawyers who were working on his divorce. You got
to feel for this guy a little bit. I don't
know if you do, but I think that is an
immense amount of craziness going on in your life, sir.
(12:44):
Around four million was spent on furniture and antiques. The cars, though,
cost over two and a half million. But look at this.
Two mattresses and betting nearly a million dollars on two mattresses,
and you might be like, well, that is insane. What
kind of mattresses are they? They're Swedish mattresses. They're from
(13:06):
a company called Hastens, and they have one of these
a few of these mattress stores in Los Angeles. When
I first moved to LA fifteen years ago or so,
got a little apartment in West Hollywood. It was me
and a bunch of divorced momps, kind of a fun vibe.
Didn't know what I was walking into, but hey, it
worked out.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Oh they would have loved you.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
It was really fun.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
It was like like I have an upstairs neighbor would
just come down randomly, just completely blotto, her mouth covered
in red wine. You know, like the teeth staining. You're like,
oh no, and she'd bust through the door. I'd be like,
sitting there, didn't have any money, didn't do anything, was
just sitting there watching TV. And she'd come in with
like a pair of keys, just drunk and be like,
(13:50):
I stole the laugh Factory owner's car. Can you help
me get rid of what's going on in this place?
But I was looking for a bed because I just
moved in. So I'm walking down Robertson Boulevard and I'm like, oh,
there's a there's a mattress store. Let me go check
it out. So I go in and I'm inquiring and
it seems nice. And I lay down on the mattress
(14:13):
and I'm checking it out, and he's like, yeah, this
is this one starts at forty and I was like
forty what forty dollars? It's like, no, forty thousand dollars.
Their starting mattress starts at forty thousand dollars. It's made
of like horsehair, Swedish craftsmanship.
Speaker 5 (14:32):
I don't know, man, worse here, there's not sound like
something I want to sleep on.
Speaker 4 (14:36):
I cannot I cannot tell you how. And I so
it was so so comfortable, and it goes. They have
mattresses that go all the way up to like five
hundred thousand dollars apiece, and Hastens, you know, like I said,
they're still in business somehow because I guess there's enough
rigche people to keep this keep this thing going. It's
all natural, you know, there's no off gassing. They say
that it's really you know, better for you or whatever,
(14:57):
and it is really comfortable. And over the years, I
still don't have money to afford a forty thousand dollars
mattress by any stretch of the imagination, but I have
been back. I was killing some time in Santa Monica.
There was one on Montana, and I popped in to
the Hasting store and I took another little quick trip
down the forty thousand dollars mattress road just to see
(15:18):
what that was like, just a quick fifteen minute nap.
And the guy said, yeah, you know, it's still forty
thousand dollars, and here you can try the one that's fifty,
and then the one that's eighty, and the one that's
two hundred and the one that's four hundred. And now
that he calls me. Almost every every month I get
a phone call from him. Still can't afford a mattress.
(15:41):
But anyway, So Carl Rinch was convicted. He could face
up to ninety years in prison, but it looks like
he probably will not serve that much time. There was
no comment from Netflix to MSN on Thursday his attorney.
Rynch's attorney, though, denounced the verse predict and said it
(16:01):
was more of a contract dispute. Okay, sounds good. Do
you ever do those year wrapped things from Spotify?
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Yeah, yeah? What was on your top this year?
Speaker 5 (16:17):
The Beatles?
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Oh that's a great one.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
That's a little bit bad.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Oh shots fire right, you are right?
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Bring it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (16:26):
What was it? What was yours?
Speaker 5 (16:28):
I was the top five percent for Rue Paul. Now
she's got great taste.
Speaker 8 (16:34):
There you go.
Speaker 5 (16:35):
Trumps the Beatles any day, right on. Songs are so fun.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Yeah, I agree with you. Also, I don't think the
Beatles is embarrassment at all. It is just kind of
surprising because I feel like the ubiquity of the Beatles
means that you are actually going out and seeking out
listening to the Beatles albums over and over and over again.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
What were the songs that are.
Speaker 5 (16:55):
Or what listening age seventy eight.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
Mine's like a D and five.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
Mine was all like jazz, like low fi jazz and
stupid stuff like that.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
Apparently I'm a twenty four year old twink.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Oh good, well, I mean there you go.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
You know we're a well rounded group.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Pe that's right, we're representing everybody. Well.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
SNL has a sketch that I will play for you
when we come back about a different kind of wrapped.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Very funny. You don't want to miss it.
Speaker 4 (17:22):
IM six forty, I'm Andy Reesmeyer're live everywhere on the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
I think I will also be Andy Reesmier tomorrow on Monday,
December fifteenth, when I'm here from seven to ten pm.
Anytime after that, I cannot guarantee who I will be.
You know, it's all about reinvention in the new year.
Been looking for things to do for New Year's Eve
and if you have any recommendations, please let us know
(17:51):
what would be a fun thing to do at Andy
Reesmier on Instagram. You could message me there, or you
can also leave us a message on the iHeartRadio app.
I think that I may ask tomorrow, like, what's the
New Year's Eve plan? I know it's a little far
from now, But the problem is that like New Year's
Eve is one of those things where it's like an
obligatory party. It costs bookoo bucks, as the French would say,
(18:16):
and if you don't do it right, you feel like
you only get one chance to do it right.
Speaker 9 (18:22):
You know.
Speaker 3 (18:22):
I've done things in the past and went down to.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
The Queen Mary that did that a couple of years ago.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
That was really fun. I did the Union Station party
that was really cool too. Yeah, sometimes you just like
to sit at home, sit at home on the couch.
I missed it one year.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
I missed the ball drop because I like was so
bored watching Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen that I like,
I just got up to go to the bathroom, and
I like realized while I was in the bathroom, I
was like, Oh, it's happening. It's New Year's The group
that I was with was displeased. Also been up to
(18:59):
Saya Barber that was kind of fun. Did that a
couple of years ago. Anyway, let us know, we will
play your messages on the iHeartRadio app coming up also.
Chris Merrill will be joining us in ten minutes or so,
maybe a little bit longer, and we'll talk about what's
happening in his show. A lot of stuff going on,
a lot of live content happening all night tonight. And
one of the things that we love talking about is
(19:21):
ooh the pit in your stomach when you receive the
DWP bill. It comes but every two months through the
mail slot. Oh, look at that, it's the DWP bill.
What will it be this year?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
This month? Rather will it?
Speaker 4 (19:40):
Will the number start with a one thousand? Will it
start with a thirteen thousand?
Speaker 3 (19:47):
For this guy?
Speaker 8 (19:48):
Did your payment of thirteen thousand, sixty three dollars and
forty five cents.
Speaker 9 (19:52):
March twenty twenty five water and power dis connection notice
sent to the Van Night's home. Will Ventries moved into
you back in twenty twenty. That's when he insists he
notified the agency of his new address repeatedly.
Speaker 8 (20:07):
I was not getting bills then, and this was all
before the COVID moratorium began in March twenty twenty. Once
that began, then I started getting on holds and they're like, oh,
it's going to be forty five minutes on holds. You know,
but we're not going to shut off anyone's power. Don't
worry about it. And I was like, okay, well I've tried.
I've asked them so many times to send the bill.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
Five years later, that thirteen thousand dollars plus bill. So
he gets to writing emails.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
We call this NAT sound in a package. It doesn't
work as well on radio.
Speaker 9 (20:40):
I earned that thirteen thousand dollars plus bill. So he
gets to writing emails. He's making phone calls until he
finally reaches a supervisor at LEDWP and he.
Speaker 8 (20:53):
Says, you know what I think and quote fifty to
fifty our fault, your fault for a WHI sending you
the bill for us?
Speaker 4 (21:01):
And he's been trying to get them to send him
the bill. You're obviously not just gonna pay Willy nearly
anything to DWP. You don't know where it's gonna go.
It sounds like he didn't even have an account at
some point. How hard did he try to get them
to send him a bill?
Speaker 8 (21:16):
I don't know for us not sending you the bills
for us, ignoring your many attempts to get the bill
sent many attempts get the bill sent to the correct address.
Speaker 4 (21:27):
I feel like, if you are trying in earnest to
get the government to send you this is the only
time in your life ever where the government won't send
you a bill for something for some reason. You're falling
through the cracks, and you are being the stand up
citizen to go out and to try to get them
to send you the bill so you can pay them
what you owe. It's on them. If they're not doing it,
it's on them. I think this guy gets.
Speaker 8 (21:48):
A pass address for us not following the standard protocol,
which is sending the delinquency and the shut off notice
to the service address regardless of the billing address.
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Oh, he's getting in the weeds. Now, I love it.
Speaker 4 (21:59):
Okay, So it sounds like they were setting They even
acknowledged that they didn't send the shut off notice to
the right place.
Speaker 8 (22:05):
He says, fifty to fifty our fault, your fault, so
let me take off two five hundred dollars.
Speaker 9 (22:10):
Paperwork shows that reduction, as well as Will's three thousand
dollars payment, with the remainder going on a payment planted.
But then he gets a new bill with more new charges.
Speaker 8 (22:21):
They said, well, since twenty twenty two, for the past
three years, we've not been reading your water meter.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
So these are some estimated charges. Even if you are
paying your bill. Do you know that your your water
bill mostly is an estimated charge. They basically say, we
think you probably are using this much. That's if you
don't have a smart meter. So these are some estimated charges.
So much around five thousand dollars, So.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
We're back to a how much then it was up
to like seven what was that?
Speaker 5 (22:55):
So we're back to a home mucht Then it.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Was up to.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
Someone's tummy.
Speaker 3 (23:01):
He has like a little snarl in his throat.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
You know, you're like a little bit of spit gets
stuck in your throat a little bit there.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
And you got a much.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
He gurgle.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
It's like his inner child is just you get all theirs.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
So we're back to a low much now it was
up to like seventeen thousand dollars in total.
Speaker 10 (23:22):
Now it doesn't surprise me at all, unfortunately, you know,
I have I get calls and emails on a regular
basis from people who have generally similar situations.
Speaker 9 (23:34):
Timothy Blood was one of the attorneys representing LADWP customers
in twenty seventeen. The agency then agreed to a multi
million dollar settlement paying customers claiming they were overcharged during
the rollout of a new billing system.
Speaker 10 (23:49):
There's no reason that they should be having so many
customer service problems over so many years.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
That the rate payers are not their enemy. The rate
payers are their customers, and they really need to treat
them asself.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
Preach sister, and they really need to treat them as such.
Speaker 9 (24:05):
Now. Late tonight I did hear from LEDWP. We've been
going back and forth, and you know what, I just
got a statement from them saying that they are, after
looking at this very unique case, they are going to
waive the majority of the disputed ballance on his unpaid water.
Speaker 4 (24:22):
Isn't it unreal that if he had not ended up
as an investigation on Fox eleven, that this never would
have resolved this way. The only reason he isn't paying
thirteen thousand dollars is because they do not want the
bad press, not because it's the right thing to do,
(24:45):
and that the bureaucracy has sorted itself out and power bill.
Speaker 9 (24:49):
I'm waiting to see what amount that is, but it
does seem that they're understanding that something really unique happened
here and.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Will unique is like.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Unique has something of value, I think right, like the
unique seems like, oh, that's like a different flavor, that's
a cool color, that's an odd hat, it's unique.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Ain't nothing unique about this.
Speaker 9 (25:15):
And we'll be able to help them out, so we'll
see what happens. But it's a problem for a lot
of people. We're gonna put their entire statement on our
website at foxlay dot com and some of the links
of some of the groups and some of the efforts
to try to ban people together so they can try to.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Get someone help.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Yeah, it's so true, and it's interesting what he was
saying about how like, look, the LEDWP shouldn't treat you
as the enemy the Department of Power and Water that
we are their customers. Doesn't feel like it. I moved
into a new place about a year ago, had the inspection,
everything went well, got a notification that the LEDWP had
(25:54):
not completed hooking up the power back to the house
when they had replace the box, the electrical box. It
was like a temporary fix, so the cables were coming
from the power line hanging on the roof, right kind
of dangerous. So I said, all right, fair enough, called LEDWP.
(26:15):
They sent a guy out. This is months afterwards, of course,
and they looked at it and they said, oh, yeah,
you're right, but also we don't have any record that
this was approved, this changing of this, this box, upgrading
your service. And I said, well I don't I wouldn't
even live here. I had nothing to do with any
of that. That happened years before. They remodeled the house, way
(26:35):
before I ever bought it. Well, sorry, who cares. What
you're going to have to do is have a guy
come out. You got to know all this, like, got
to move this pipe over two inches, got to drop
it down three inches, The conduit has to be I
got to pull out the pipe from the stucco, got
to redo it, you know, five thousand dollars of course,
and hey, if you don't do it, you're going to
(26:56):
get charged every single day for being in violation.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
LEDWP. Can you help me out here? Nope? So I
did it.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
I had it done when they had a guy come
out and guess what, still wasn't right. So I had
to have the guy come back out and fix it,
do something different. And finally when he got there, the
inspector from LEDWP came over and looked at the house
and said, okay, great, you did the work.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
Your gate is swinging the wrong way. You just can't win.
You can't win.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
This is the Andy Reesmire Show. We are live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio app on KFI.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
If you're looking for a fun time in fantasy land.
Old Boy, Oh Boys, Los Angeles is the place to be.
Broadway in Hollywood. They are the group of promoters that
are bringing I think some of the greatest shows here
from Broadway to of course Hollywood. I've told you about
the Back to the Future musical that's always fun, the
Harry Potter musical.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
They did that last year.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Now at the Mantlebain Theater in Hollywood, Dungeons and Dragons
becomes more immersive than ever in a stage play called
The Twenty Sided Tavern.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Take a listen.
Speaker 11 (28:16):
The stage is set for a unique adventure every night
at the Twenty Sided Tavern.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Whether they're toasting the shots.
Speaker 11 (28:23):
Of celebration or rolling TORNI ship, it's dangerous bones.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
Every decision is yours to make join the action on.
Speaker 11 (28:31):
Stage or choose your hero's backways from your seat. The
spell has been cast and the only missing ingredient is
you welcome.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Adventures with the Bundy sided tag.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
How hype it is that?
Speaker 4 (28:47):
Here to tell us more about the twenty side of
Tavern is one of the cast members from the play.
Will Champion joins us here on the Andy Reesemeyer Show.
Good afternoon to you, sir.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
How you doing.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I'm absolutely fabulous. Thank you for having me mate.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Now you are a brit Does that mean that you
are also the drummer of Coldplay?
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Or is that just a coincidence?
Speaker 2 (29:06):
You know what. We haven't checked all the record there,
but we have a suspicion he may be related to us.
It's made for some very confusing private messages, I perceived.
I'll tell you about I'm.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
Sure so if anybody doesn't know, Wild Champion is also
the drummer of Coldplay, and of course being a British
person in performing something. What is your he's very famously
rocking the.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Exposed dome. What's your hair situation?
Speaker 2 (29:34):
I thankfully at the moment, will have a very full
head of hair, and that's a nice differential between the parent.
Speaker 4 (29:39):
There you go, that's it. And also how many millions
of dollars. We will not get into that, but let's
talk about this show. I was so lucky to meet
many of the cast members. I'm going to do a
piece I believe it'll air on Tuesday about this show
that is playing right now at the Montleban Theater in Hollywood,
and it's a nine hundred person venue and people are
going to experience Dungeons and Dragon in a stage play
(30:01):
situation that's interactive. Now, for anybody who doesn't know, can
you just tell us what Dungeons and Dragons is?
Speaker 9 (30:07):
So?
Speaker 2 (30:08):
At its most base level, Dungeons and Dragons is what's
called a table top role playing game where you traditionally
are all sitting around like your living room table or
like on the floor in your basement, and you're telling
a story together. You've created these fantasy characters using a
systems of rules and guidelines that's now and it's fifth
or sixth edition, depending on who you ask, and you're
(30:30):
working together with a dungeon master who's sort of creating
the framework for the story you're telling. And then all
the choices that you and your friends around that table
make will tell a completely unique fantasy adventure.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
Now this is something that was for a long time
kind of like nerdy do weebe? But now I feel
like is very much mainstream, Like people are to know
about this everywhere, and you now are also taking an
opportunity here to move from the basement into the big
stage with a full on, real production, big.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Time, you know. I mean, it's sort of like it
feels kind of what you dream of when you start
playing a game like Dungeon and Dragons in your parents' basement,
that your imagination is picturing something much larger and much
more grand, with all the costumes and set pieces and whatnot.
And what this play does is actually brings that to life.
We have a brilliant, massive screen that projects a lot
(31:28):
of the images and actually that you see happening on stage.
People are making sound effects in real time, and whatever
characters the audience chooses the three players to be that
particular evening have their own unique fantastical outfits that get
put on right at the beginning of the show.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
And then there's something with the QR codes where all
the audience members go in, they scan a QR code,
and then throughout the show they can vote on the
things that are happening and sort of inform what goes
next with the play.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
It's not even sort of inform anybody who comes to
see the show. We don't just all the audience. They're
our fellow adventurers. They're the other players at the table.
Because the power for what we do, who we meet,
and truthfully, where our story honestly ends is completely in
the hands of the audience. We make some of the
decisions for sure, and there's a sort of a skeletal
framework for how this show is supposed to move, but
(32:18):
what the audience wants, what you guys coming to see
the show want to happen, is what is going to happen.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
It's two hours of complete improv with a sort of
general base of where we're going to go. But that
makes it special and different for every night, which I
will say is exactly like this radio show.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Isn't that I.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
Try to figure out what I'm going to say, but
when I get in there, it sort of completely changes
its different. How have the audiences been here in LA?
You guys have been playing since just after Thanksgiving?
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Yeah, I mean it shouldn't come as a surprise, give
that LA is sort of the hub for all things
nerdy these days, and I would really credit that the
renaissance of D and D over the last ten years
has been based here in LA and the audiences here
have reflected that they've been absolutely phenomenal. How is a
nice mix of people who have played before and people
who are completely new to it. But everyone here is
(33:04):
so willing to completely invest and buy into the story,
and even people who have never rolled the twenty sided
by before in their life find themselves screaming and hollering
at the top of their lungs when somebody rolled the
nactual twenty. You know, it's a really special experience out
here at mufvel Man.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Yeah, I'm excited for you. I know you're going to
Scottsdale next, which is great because you will be there
at least until the twenty first, at least in LA.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
But you're going to stay in the warm, and I
love that.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
We've got a beautiful day, yeah, and there's no better
way I think to spend it a beautiful day than
inside watching a play.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I happen to agree review.
Speaker 3 (33:39):
But so, do you have a show tonight?
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Yes, we're actually in the middle of a matinee right now.
And then there's another show. Oh my god, what are
they a Sunday?
Speaker 3 (33:48):
So do you need to get back on stage?
Speaker 10 (33:50):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
So that's the beauty of it is. There are nine
of us in the cast, and there are five positions
on stage, a couple of which, in fact, three of
which today are filled by our guest stars, some of
these sort of icons in the D and D world.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
Oh that's fun.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
So we get to rotate in and out a lot,
and most of us, in fact all of us, play
multiple roles in the show, so you're always seeing the
same group of people in different roles every night. And
as a result, I'm just here is back up today
just in case anyone happens to have a nasty fall
on stage. I'm there just in case.
Speaker 4 (34:24):
You know, hopefully that will not happen, but at least
you'll be ready in the case that it does. Will
Champion from Dungeons and Dragons the twenty Sided Tavern. It
is now playing at the Monobne Theater. The shows last
all the way through Sunday, December twenty first, So if
you want to get tickets, how can people find it?
Speaker 2 (34:44):
Honestly, you can find them online at our website or
you can come straight to the box office here on
Hollywood and Vine and get rush tickets to day off.
It's a great way to come see it if you're
feeling spur of the moment. Love it.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
That website Broadway in Hollywood, dot com of course, and
you can also just google the Dungeons and Dragons twenty
sided Tavern show playing at the Mantleblane Theater in Hollywood.
Speaker 3 (35:06):
Will break a leg. Thank you so much for being
on the show.
Speaker 4 (35:10):
I appreciate you, and we'll see you out there hoping
to roll twenties for sure.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Absolutely, thank you. Mate.
Speaker 4 (35:17):
There he goes Will Champion, not from Coldplay, but I
don't mind. I Actually I prefer talk to that guy
than the guy from Coldplay. I bet the guy from
Coldplace is nice too. Really good voice, don't you think,
Eileen one hundred?
Speaker 3 (35:30):
That accent.
Speaker 4 (35:31):
They could say literally anything and I would be like, yeah, okay, sure,
well that sounds right.
Speaker 5 (35:37):
No, it's great.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
Another hour show coming up here, including a director who
defrauded Netflix out of eleven million dollars.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
Will tell you what.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
Crazy things he spent it on he was convicted. And
have you been on a Hollywood backlot tour? Lately, as
Hollywood changes, as we move from the backlot to the
green screen to the volume. Unfortunately, going by the wayside
is the relevance of the Hollywood Backlot Tour. We'll get
(36:07):
into that, plus the latest news from the KFI twenty
four hour newsroom.
Speaker 3 (36:11):
