More than 100 firefighters presently at the scene of the container ship presently on fire in San Pedro. All 23 crew members onboard have been accounted for, with no injuries. There was a much-anticipated meeting today between New York Democratic Socialist Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani and President Donald Trump in the Oval Office. In Hollywood, bids are in to take over Warner Bros. Pictures. Retro steakhouse chain Sizzler is making a return! With only 74 locations at present from its 1990s high of more than 700 locations around the U.S., the affordable restaurant chain is relaunching with a brand refresh. If you fly without a REAL ID or passport, you may still get on the plane – if you pay. A new security screening program at TSA will cost you $18 and get you access to the airport for 10 days. However, the program does not guarantee access to the plane. The DOT unveiled a so-called civility campaign that encourages people to dress with respect. It’s called “The Golden Age of Travel Starts with You.” The Hollywood Christmas Parade is happening November 30.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Just after nine o'clock here on this Friday, November twenty
first lots coming up in the next hour, or keeping
an eye on that San Pedro boat ship fire container
Ship one Henry Hudson is what it's called. That's of
course named after that English explorer and navigator seemed to
be on fire. More than one hundred firefighters were sent
to the scene. Some crew members originally were reported to
(00:28):
be unaccounted for. LAFD reported the blaze observed earlier in
the evening around seven o'clock and marine tugs. So essentially,
if you're looking at the live shot live picture, they
were seeing a bunch of marine responding firefighting units, which
are basically boats that have little fire hoses sticking out
(00:49):
the top. Those are all circled around trying to keep
the ship's exterior cool because apparently this is an electrical
fire and hazardous materials are present in affected areas. That's
according to the ship's manifest don't love that. So the
firefighters there are in protective suits, they have breathing apparatus's
(01:10):
separati and cruise at least at this point can't go
under the deck, can't go below deck because of the
intensity of the fire.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
So the good news is all twenty three crew members
aboard have been accounted for with no injuries.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Amazing. Yep, that's huge. I know the mayor tweeted about it.
The responses to the mayor tweeting about a fire, as
you might imagine, are not positive, a little negative, but
that's the Internet. Much anticipated meeting between President Trump and
New York Mayor electzo Ora and Mandami happened today. I
(01:47):
don't know was it fair to say it's much anticipated.
I had no idea that it was coming. I didn't
see any promos. I didn't hear any look aheads too.
Of course politically very different, but maybe share something that
they are political outsiders. Sharon Micah.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
President Trump says his meeting with New York Mayor alec
Zor on Mom Donnie was great and very productive. The
presidents that he agreed with Mom Donnie on more than
he expected, even saying he would feel comfortable living in
New York City with Mom Donnie as mayor.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Congratulations Mark's preasure.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
In their first face to based meeting, President Trump met
with New York City mayor alec zoron Mom Donnie in
the Oval office. Both men agreed the meeting on public safety,
affordability and economic security was positive.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
Was a productive meeting focused on a place of shared
admiration and love, which is New York City.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
This relationship has not always been warm. Mom Donnie is
a self described democratic socialist who ran on a platform
including rent freezes, thirty dollars minimum wage, city owned grocery stores,
free buses, and free childcare. He once called President Trump
a fascist.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Are a firmat that you think President Trump is a fascist?
Speaker 5 (02:59):
I've spoken about Okay, Okay, it's easier than explaining a pedal.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
But the President previously called Mom Donnie a communist and
threatened to withhold federal funding from New York City, saying
he doesn't want good money to follow bad.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
But today I.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Did say, you know, the subject to what policies are
being said, we had a meeting today that actually surprised me.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
I know there might be differences about ideology, but the
place of agreement is the work that needs to be
done to make New York City affordable.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
The President said they do have differences over immigration enforcements,
but they are in agreement over combating crime Mom Donnie
will be mayor January first.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Fascinating stuff. Politics is politics as per usual. Got a
talk back on that Marjorie Taylor Green story. Of course,
she is resigning after falling out of favor with President Trump.
This is Lisa, and you can tell him Southern. So
I think, by the way, great voice, Lisa, please call
(04:03):
in more, leave some more talkbacks. Love the voice. This
is Lisa, and you can tell them Southern.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
So.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
I think Marjorie Taylor Green is going to take her
special form of crazy to the Governor's office of the
State of Georgia and run for governor.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
That's what I think. Thank you so much, Lisa. How
about this is completely different, little Hollywood talk. The bids
are in to take over Warner Brothers Discovery. Who will
be buying the WB potential suitors right now Paramount, Comcast,
Netflix immense value in Warner Brothers pictures. It is the
(04:39):
top performing movie studio right now. And of course HBO
Paramount owns Paramount plus CBS some other cable networks. They
want all of the company, including CNN and TVs. Remember
Warner Brothers Discovery was, of course a merger between Warner
Brothers and Discovery. You're getting all of their cable networks
(05:01):
as well. Comcast just wants the streaming services in the studio.
They already have universal studios and are spinning off their
cable networks like ms now into their own companies. Miss
Now is what I call her. Netflix also just wants
the streaming and the studio. They have no interest in
cable TV. Both of those deals would leave the cable
networks adrift. Like when I was working at the Gap
(05:24):
for a year after high school. It was a gap
year for its part. Netflix says it will keep Warner
Brothers movies in theaters if it is the buyer. Netflix
can also afford to be the buyer. Both Paramount and
Comcasts would have to raise money somewhere else, go into debt.
Axio says Paramount might be looking to sovereign wealth funds
in the Middle East, maybe the Saudist We saw that
(05:46):
they were interested in getting into the comedy scene with
the Read Comedy Festival, so it's not beyond belief that
they might try to invest in some kind of American
media company. The boarder like they decide if they will
be acquired by the end of the year. Shares traded
up today on the news. I think that none of
the bids were over thirty dollars a share. Right now,
(06:08):
I believe Warner Brothers Discovery is trading somewhere like twenty
four bucks a share, which I think is a deal.
I don't know would I invest in traditional media. I
don't have any money. It's a tough question. Not sure.
We're keeping an eye on this cargo ship catching fire.
(06:29):
That is interesting stuff, but like you said, I lean
nobody's injured. That's great, very good. And coming up, we'll
talk about a nostalgic restaurant, a big chain that was
set in the scene for dining out in the eighties. Man,
it was a big deal. This is like this is
(06:52):
like the Workingman's Cheesecake Factory. OI, oh boy. We'll tell
you why they think that they're going to be the
next Chili's. And what happens if you don't have a
real ID and you go to the airport, what actually
happens to you? Twenty years after it was first proposed,
the real ID is now mandatory. You are told you
(07:12):
can't get it on an airplane, but there may be
a workaround, And of course it's gonna cost you. I'm
Andy Reesemeyer.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
We've got a little bit of time left here on
the show, and I wanted to talk about my favorite
place to kick back, hit the buffet and think about
the old days. You know where I'm talking.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Choices is the choice.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
With a slogan like that, how could they not have
been successful? Sizzler is the choice of America and has
choices every day. The marketing campaign from nineteen ninety one
proposes that you might go to Sizzler every day. It
is a daily place. At one point in the nineties
(08:14):
they had seven hundred locations. Now Sizzler only has seventy four.
We've talked at link on this show about how much
Sizzler needs to succeed. I had thought it was out
of business until some very lovely callers told me, no,
there's so many in the valley, even not far not
far from here. So we're gonna do it. We're gonna
(08:37):
do a field trip sometime, Aileen, and we're gonna all
go to head on down to Sissler. There's running Fulver
City too, is there? Yeah? Oh? Man, I went there recently.
Speaker 6 (08:47):
Was it good?
Speaker 2 (08:48):
What was the vibe? You know, for what you pay,
it's not bad. Yeah, I mean that's the whole idea.
You know, everything now is so expensive that Sizzler's looking
to carve out a little niche. I mean it's not
Morton's and atmospheres, you know not. Are you telling me?
Are you telling me that the buffet with questionable cottage
(09:08):
cheese pineapple spots just hanging out of you, that that's
not for you.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
I'm you know what, I love fine dining and I
also do like dive bar plays. Oh yeah me, Oh
it's okay. I'm not too stuck up for Sizzler.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I'm somewhere. I'm somewhere in between a dive bar and
a nice restaurant all the time. So maybe that is
what Sizzler is going to be. I launched back in
nineteen fifty eight. The whole idea was to make a
steakhouse that was affordable as fast food was sweeping the
United States. Like we said, only seventy four Sizzler restaurants
remain in the US, and now they're looking for a rebirth.
(09:46):
Robert Clark, he's the chief growth officer for Sizzler that's
a tough job. He says. The brand screwed up when
they tried to change what they were known for for
fast casual dining. I had not known that they changed
anything at all. I thought that they just closed. They
said that the strategy of changing with the times did
not work. The current leadership is now focused on let's
(10:09):
take the best to Sizzler and make it even better.
I mean, I have not heard one specific thing that
they're going to do other than that it's going to
be better. They're updating restaurants. Better be careful. Remember what
happened with Cracker Barrel could be a disaster. They're going
to remodel, stay relevant. There's that the what is it
(10:30):
the Monterey Chicken? Is that what they make there? Or
though that's Chili's. I've only had the Ribbi, Honestly, the Ribbi.
I thought that it was all buffet situation. Oh, you
can choose a buffet or not. Well, why wouldn't you
do that? I mean, what are you going there for?
What would you be a Sizzler? You want to go
to Sizzler to just get like a like a Taylor
(10:50):
Ham Like, What's what is the point of Sizzler? If
not to buffet, I don't know. I'm not a buffet person.
I'm missing out, I guess. I guess. So we got
to talk back. Let's listen. M hmm, let's listen to
that talk too. Andy Reeseman, first of all, love it.
(11:14):
He said it wrong. I love Andy Reesman. That's great,
Andy Reeseman. I definitely think that you're sativa guy. That's
what I'm smoking to each night. I have said before
on the record that I am not cool enough to
do drugs. I like true, like that is. I learned
(11:37):
that in high school. It's stuck with me into my thirties.
But I respect it. As long as you're safe, it's legal.
You gotta do what you gotta do. What's this whole
thing sativa is for the It's kind of like.
Speaker 7 (11:48):
The head Hi allow me to take over the couch.
Eva will get you apparently up, and Indi Coau will
put you in the couch. But most strains these days
are hybrid. Anyways, It's hard to find one that's just
indica and one that's just a stieve.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
But and I understand some people like it for creativity,
But isn't the whole kind of the idea of of
weed is to like relax.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
No, maybe not.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I don't think it to relax.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
I mean I'm actually sometimes you know, it stops my
appetite and I'm cleaning the house.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
So it depends on the person and how you react.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I would never be able to clean the house. Oh no,
it gets me, is Zen why I'd like star? It's
hard enough for me to focus on one task in
a clear eye cloud in mind, you know what I mean,
like just a in a normal headspace, I'd be like
building legos. I'd be going getting puzzles out of the closet.
I'd be going to the storage container and then coming back.
(12:45):
I mean, it would be a bad day for me
cleaning the house. But I appreciate the call and the
talk back. Very nice, very fun. Eileen, you want to
take it away? Are you too? Are we too early?
I don't know I can take it away. I just
was like I wanted to do another story here, but
(13:06):
I feel like I don't have time. Is it the
indicca kicking in?
Speaker 1 (13:13):
What time?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Is it?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Wait? Is it? Wait?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Am I feeling it?
Speaker 5 (13:16):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Do I feel it?
Speaker 5 (13:17):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Am I feeling it? Wait?
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Is it?
Speaker 6 (13:18):
Hap?
Speaker 7 (13:19):
I think Si Sizzler goes together really beautifully, though that
could be does one of.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Them make you want to eat more? Or is it
kind of all the same?
Speaker 7 (13:26):
I think that's the cannabinoid, the CBN. I think that's
the thing in it that makes you hungry and so
you can like it doesn't always impact people in that way,
like I give it to my bunny rabbits.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
Is a life extender.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Oh my god, wow, liquid, I.
Speaker 8 (13:43):
Give them enough for a great saying.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Not CBD, you give them like actual THHC. Yes, is
that illegal?
Speaker 7 (13:50):
It's totally legal, and it's good for all mammals. Okay,
it's a life extend And my last rabbit lived until
he was fifteen years because I'd get him super hot.
Speaker 8 (14:03):
He loved that.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
He was happy.
Speaker 7 (14:05):
He lay about and ate and just be cute until
he was fifteen and he died.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
It's not bunny abuse, I guess. I guess, like the
good thing. The phone lines are not open because we
were about to get lit up. No, I gave my
cat CBD when he broke his leg. That's also not real.
I'm sorry, right, Like CBD's no CBG's real.
Speaker 7 (14:25):
CBD is psychotropic as well, but the the THHC is
that's the one that gets you feeling that real hot
got it? Yeah, that existential crisis. If you can't handle it, well,
we ate up a couple of minutes.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
There.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Just past nine thirty. You fly in soon. There's lots
to think about. Do you have your real ID as?
You know it's mandatory now. They were like a billion extensions.
I didn't even realize this. Theore Regional Real id Law
was signed more than twenty years ago by President George Bush.
(15:09):
That's forever ago. The second Bush finally implemented by Secretary
Christy nom as of May twenty twenty five. So if
you fly without a real idea or passport, you may
get on the plane. When I went in the beginning
of May, I had got my real idea, but it
wasn't in my possession yet. It was just like a
(15:33):
little piece of paper that said real Ideas on its way,
and they made me go into a different line. This
is the Burbank Airport. They made me go way over
stand somewhere else. A bunch of other people got to go.
I got a little note card that was sort of
like a shame on you it's a law you have
to you got byed, but you are out of compliance,
and then they would say out of compliances next then
(15:55):
yell at you and stuff. It was very It was
like the movie Brazil. But if you're attempting to fly
with that real idea or passport, you can make your
problem go away, just like every other way with money.
A new security screening program will cost you eighteen bucks
and we'll get you access to the airport without a
(16:18):
real ID for ten days. Now this is an optional thing.
I guess the other option would be to just go
up to the TSA guy and cry and say like
I got to get to my family. I don't know.
But when you do the program, you have to submit
information like, according to the TSA biographic and or biometric
(16:40):
info to verify your identity. Then they put you on
the secure flight watch list result. But here's the kicker.
The program does not guarantee someone will be granted access
beyond the checkpoint and into the airport. And if you
use this program, you may be subject to additional screening
or experience delay. But they got your eighteen bucks. Neat
(17:05):
just another little layer of h double hockey sticks at
the airport. This is another big shocker that I feel
like I was gonna say it till Sunday and maybe
make a call in about it. But maybe we can
just we'll maybe do that again. But the Trio Department
(17:25):
of Transportation on Wednesday unveiled a campaign aimed at bringing
more civility to air travel, urging Americans to dress with
respect when bored in an airplane. No more yoga pants,
Mario darn, not even the not even the what do
(17:46):
you call them? Like the what you put under like
the jim shorts by the legs, No leggings, No, no
anything that goes swish swish, jim attire. Uh must have quit.
I think what would qualify as you shouldn't wear that?
I don't know. They didn't say specifically, but the plan
is called the Golden Age of Travel starts with you.
(18:07):
It's supposed to jumpstart a nationwide conversation of how about
how we can all restore courtesy in class to air travel.
This comes from Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy. It's called a
civility campaign. Of course, people do not behave themselves on airplanes.
This is not news. The Transportation Department doesn't say what
(18:28):
it means by dressing with respect. But in a social
media post, Secretary Duffy said, dress up to go to
the airport, help a stranger out, and be in a
good mood.
Speaker 8 (18:41):
That's like in the nineteen fifties when people wore suits
and frocks to fly.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Yeah. But the difference is they just did that because
it was culturally acceptable. This is the government telling you
you have to do it.
Speaker 7 (18:51):
You know what The big difference is, actually what's up?
They were allowed to smoke on the fly.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
That is a big you are right? Can you believe
that they had a little smoking section on an airplane
like as if like, oh yeah, no, the smoke will
stop once.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I remember that there were ash trades in the little
little seats.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Oh yeah, weird right on the armrests. It didn't work
at Chili's, it's not going to work on an airplane.
You cannot separate those two things. But they also asked
air travelers to ask themselves if they are doing the
following things to ensure civility, helping a pregnant woman or
elderly person with placing their bags in the overhead bin,
(19:29):
are you dressing with respect? Are you keeping control of
your children and helping them through the airport. Are you
saying thank you to your flight attendants? Are you saying
please and thank you? In general? These are all things
that I think are great, simple, respectful. You should be
doing this already, But there is something so icky when
the federal government, it's a societal issue, tells you you
(19:50):
must do this. It is a societal issue, and I
understand that people are buck wild at the airport, but
you also have to realize it is so impossibly awful
to fly these days. It's expensive, it takes forever, You
have no power. You are just asked to sit and
(20:12):
go where you are called upon. My friend Bobby, who
I do do a live show with on the weekends,
said airport is the Olympics of rules. You just got
to go and do all the things like they tell
you to, and so no wonder people lose their minds
and go postal by the way, A travel expert Daniel
Green says, at the end of the day, I think
(20:33):
it's just a well intentioned messaging campaign and behaving well
in public will likely have no practical or tangible implications
for people. So glad we did it. We did it.
Joe the rise in unruly passenger stems from several issues,
including alcohol, drugs, mental health issues, as well as that
(20:53):
one guy who was just not even real. Remember him?
That guy over there, he is not real?
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Is that the woman who said she saw some alien
or something else?
Speaker 2 (21:07):
No, she never said what it was. Yeah, that was
the craziest thing I ever heard. By the way, The
Hollywood Christmas Parade is happening Sunday, November thirtieth, twenty twenty five.
It'll be hosted by Elizabeth Stanton, Eric Astrada, Laura Mackenzie.
The Grand Marshal will be Luke Wilson. Humanitarian of the
(21:27):
Year award will go to Anthony Anderson. Of course, it's
just up and down Hollywood Boulevard. It is the ninety
third time they have done the Hollywood Christmas Parade. And
guess what I'm gonna be there, baby who? I was
asked by Wendy Birch, Robert Pointe, Samantha Cortese myself will
(21:48):
be riding in one of the cars at the Hollywood
Christmas Parade, So we would love to see you if
you're going to make it out there. That, of course,
is the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Are you gonna dress like
an elf on the show. Yeah, I'll be an elf
on the shelf for the back of the convertible.
Speaker 5 (22:02):
You know.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
My tights, maybe bells. I have bells on.
Speaker 8 (22:07):
You got the legs for it.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Oh, you don't know me at all? All Right, before
we leave, I tell you stupidest story. You do dumb
things when you're young, Right when you're like in your
early twenties, you try to figure out what you are
as a person. You're in la, you're lonely, you're by yourself.
Maybe you get bored one day because you've got nothing
(22:29):
to do, you got no money, you got the clippers.
Maybe you accidentally shave your legs, the whole leg and
you look in the mirror and you think, wow, those
are the laziest legs I've ever seen in my life.
Those are straight female legs. Gams. Those are some girl
gams sticking out of those jean shorts. Daisy Dukes, I
(22:52):
think not. I'll leave you with that mental image. It's
kf I AM six forty your life everywhere on the
art radio app.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We made it through this two hour show. How about that?
There was a lot of pressure coming into here. You know,
Conway had a pretty serious party out there in your
Belinda Smart and final all very excited. Of course, that
is because we are trying to raise some awareness and
also some money there for postathon. You want a postathon, Eileen,
(23:35):
I believe I'm working. Okay, Yeah. It is the fifteenth
annual KFI Postathon. Shep Bruno's charity, Katerina's Club. What a
great event. More than twenty five thousand meals every week
to kids in need in southern California. And of course
because of your generosity as listeners. Conway was saying, we
got the best listeners out there. They're the smartest people.
They show up, they support good causes each other. When
(24:00):
Stefuj was in that accident, KFI listeners raised more than
one hundred thousand dollars for him. That is amazing, and
you can keep giving. For giving Tuesday for the Caterina's Club.
That'll be December second, from five am to eight p
eight pm. That is a week from Tuesday, at the
Anaheim White House at eight eight seven South Anaheim Boulevard.
(24:25):
You can also donate anytime at KFI AM six forty
dot com. Slash Pastathon, or you can find pasta and
sauce drop off locations and you can find that at
any Smart and Final and donate there as well, even
in Arizona and Nevada. So if you're heading out there
towards towards Vegas, before you give all your money to
(24:45):
mister Steve Winn, why don't you give it to give
it to some kids in need? Just thought, just an idea.
By the way, thirtieth anniversary of this unbelievable show.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Am I have nothing to eat over there?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You said you were making me dinner.
Speaker 6 (25:07):

Speaker 2 (25:10):
How much does re make fun of my cooking? I'll
look at him.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
I want to look at him, Robert answer me.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Thirty years since Everybody Loves Raymond went on the air,
and now there will be a thirtieth anniversary special to
honor and remember the show. The special will be on
CBS and also Paramount Plus. And I believe it is
(25:45):
airing on November twenty fourth, so that would be what Tuesday?

Is that right?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Monday? Monday night? And you can see it on CBS
starting at eight pm. Oh, that will be here, We'll
be here. Maybe we'll pop it up up on the
TV while we're here and just pop in what we're doing.
It will be hosted by Patricia Heaton Ray Romano. Of course,
they will do tributes to Doris Roberts and Peter Boyle
(26:13):
played Ray's parents. I think Brad Garrett is also there.
Very very fun stuff that show, and especially Phil Rosenthal
of the creator that show, created the diner you know
that opened today or yesterday in Largemont. It's very fun.
So a lot happening around that. But it's not the
(26:36):
only show that's covered back, at least in some capacity.
(27:04):
A reboot of Baywatch will be one of seventeen television
productions receiving tax credits through California's Film and Television Incentive program.
That's according to Governor Kevin Newsom's office. Oh yeah, I
just love the show. Baywatch will be filmed, of course
(27:24):
in LA at the historic Venice Beach Lifeguard Operation Station.
That's where it will be shot. The original, of course,
starred David Hassloff and Pamela Anderson, one of the most iconic,
quintessentially LA shows. Latest round of the projects were selected
for California's Film and Television tax credit program. They will
employ over fifty one hundred cast and crew, as well
(27:46):
as nearly thirty six thousand background performers. California's going to
spend about nine hundred million dollars to keep production here.
Of course, Baywatch, which was born in la will be
back here. That's according to exact A producer Matt Nix.
He started working on the show earlier this year when
California wildfire fires destroyed his house, saying he was inspired
(28:10):
by the heroism of the first responders. Oh hold on,
I was not allowed to watch, of course. I don't
know why. I don't know what wouldn't be appropriate to
an eight year old. Nobody's any fun. Nobody's any fun.
(28:31):
By the way, speaking of fun, I don't know if
you saw last week' Saturday Night Live an incredible impression
of Sebastian Manuscalco done by Marcelo Hernandez. What's up, everybody?
This is Sebastian Maniscalco and this is my reaction to
the impersonation of me on Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 6 (28:51):
You're I'm gonna believe.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
The first thing I had noticed?
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Do they think I'm that great?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I The ray hair was a little and then the
traffic was on another level. So I'm known for being
a very physical comedian. The movements are very exaggerated, which
it makes it even more funny. If he just did this,
it wouldn't have been funny.
Speaker 8 (29:19):
Sort of fact that he's really getting into it, that's
what's driving the sketch.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
What I am blown away by here is that he
Sebastian man of Scalco, the actual one, is trying to
distance himself from this incredible one for one impression. It's
like Sebastian Maniscalco is like, I don't talk like that.
I'm not talking like it at all. They got me all.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Wrong over annunciation of the physical humor is something that
I really got to kick out of.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
I don't like twister. You heard a twister? He goes
left hand to purple. And someone just told me this recently.
Speaker 7 (29:56):
I think it was my wife that purple isn't even a.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
That he said verbal. I thought that was what you
can be met.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Let me tell you.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Yeah, I never wear a turtle neck, but you could
pull it off. I never understood the turtle neck, but yeah,
the turtleneck has been You wear a turtleneck, you don't
look like a turtleneck here. Good stuff. All righty, I'm
gonna get out of here. We've got a coast to
coast coming up in just a little bit. If you
want to say hello, you can always do that at
(30:27):
Andy KTLA. I will be back here. I think, what's
the same crew on Sunday? Is that right?
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Nikki?
Speaker 2 (30:34):
I'll be here, Mario, I'll be here, and I'll be
here and I will also be here, so we will
have two more hours of this excellence starting at two
pm on Sunday. Sunday Sunday, and a big shout out
to Andrew mcmanniquin Andrew McMahon, who is a member of
a band called Jack's Mannequin, who tomorrow will be doing
(30:54):
a homecoming show in Orange County after a long tour
twenty years since the Jackspann and debut record Everything in
Transit homecoming show. Lots of local Orange County people are
going to be coming out for that as well. So
very very fun stuff. I Meanie Reesmier. This is KFI
AM six forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio
Speaker 1 (31:16):
App KFI AM six forty on demand
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Just after nine o'clock here on this Friday, November twenty
first lots coming up in the next hour, or keeping
an eye on that San Pedro boat ship fire container
Ship one Henry Hudson is what it's called. That's of
course named after that English explorer and navigator seemed to
be on fire. More than one hundred firefighters were sent
to the scene. Some crew members originally were reported to
(00:28):
be unaccounted for. LAFD reported the blaze observed earlier in
the evening around seven o'clock and marine tugs. So essentially,
if you're looking at the live shot live picture, they
were seeing a bunch of marine responding firefighting units, which
are basically boats that have little fire hoses sticking out
(00:49):
the top. Those are all circled around trying to keep
the ship's exterior cool because apparently this is an electrical
fire and hazardous materials are present in affected areas. That's
according to the ship's manifest don't love that. So the
firefighters there are in protective suits, they have breathing apparatus's
(01:10):
separati and cruise at least at this point can't go
under the deck, can't go below deck because of the
intensity of the fire.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
So the good news is all twenty three crew members
aboard have been accounted for with no injuries.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Amazing. Yep, that's huge. I know the mayor tweeted about it.
The responses to the mayor tweeting about a fire, as
you might imagine, are not positive, a little negative, but
that's the Internet. Much anticipated meeting between President Trump and
New York Mayor electzo Ora and Mandami happened today. I
(01:47):
don't know was it fair to say it's much anticipated.
I had no idea that it was coming. I didn't
see any promos. I didn't hear any look aheads too.
Of course politically very different, but maybe share something that
they are political outsiders. Sharon Micah.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
President Trump says his meeting with New York Mayor alec
Zor on Mom Donnie was great and very productive. The
presidents that he agreed with Mom Donnie on more than
he expected, even saying he would feel comfortable living in
New York City with Mom Donnie as mayor.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Congratulations Mark's preasure.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
In their first face to based meeting, President Trump met
with New York City mayor alec zoron Mom Donnie in
the Oval office. Both men agreed the meeting on public safety,
affordability and economic security was positive.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
Was a productive meeting focused on a place of shared
admiration and love, which is New York City.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
This relationship has not always been warm. Mom Donnie is
a self described democratic socialist who ran on a platform
including rent freezes, thirty dollars minimum wage, city owned grocery stores,
free buses, and free childcare. He once called President Trump
a fascist.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Are a firmat that you think President Trump is a fascist?
Speaker 5 (02:59):
I've spoken about Okay, Okay, it's easier than explaining a pedal.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
But the President previously called Mom Donnie a communist and
threatened to withhold federal funding from New York City, saying
he doesn't want good money to follow bad.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
But today I.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Did say, you know, the subject to what policies are
being said, we had a meeting today that actually surprised me.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
I know there might be differences about ideology, but the
place of agreement is the work that needs to be
done to make New York City affordable.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
The President said they do have differences over immigration enforcements,
but they are in agreement over combating crime Mom Donnie
will be mayor January first.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Fascinating stuff. Politics is politics as per usual. Got a
talk back on that Marjorie Taylor Green story. Of course,
she is resigning after falling out of favor with President Trump.
This is Lisa, and you can tell him Southern. So
I think, by the way, great voice, Lisa, please call
(04:03):
in more, leave some more talkbacks. Love the voice. This
is Lisa, and you can tell them Southern.
Speaker 5 (04:09):
So.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
I think Marjorie Taylor Green is going to take her
special form of crazy to the Governor's office of the
State of Georgia and run for governor.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
That's what I think. Thank you so much, Lisa. How
about this is completely different, little Hollywood talk. The bids
are in to take over Warner Brothers Discovery. Who will
be buying the WB potential suitors right now Paramount, Comcast,
Netflix immense value in Warner Brothers pictures. It is the
(04:39):
top performing movie studio right now. And of course HBO
Paramount owns Paramount plus CBS some other cable networks. They
want all of the company, including CNN and TVs. Remember
Warner Brothers Discovery was, of course a merger between Warner
Brothers and Discovery. You're getting all of their cable networks
(05:01):
as well. Comcast just wants the streaming services in the studio.
They already have universal studios and are spinning off their
cable networks like ms now into their own companies. Miss
Now is what I call her. Netflix also just wants
the streaming and the studio. They have no interest in
cable TV. Both of those deals would leave the cable
networks adrift. Like when I was working at the Gap
(05:24):
for a year after high school. It was a gap
year for its part. Netflix says it will keep Warner
Brothers movies in theaters if it is the buyer. Netflix
can also afford to be the buyer. Both Paramount and
Comcasts would have to raise money somewhere else, go into debt.
Axio says Paramount might be looking to sovereign wealth funds
in the Middle East, maybe the Saudist We saw that
(05:46):
they were interested in getting into the comedy scene with
the Read Comedy Festival, so it's not beyond belief that
they might try to invest in some kind of American
media company. The boarder like they decide if they will
be acquired by the end of the year. Shares traded
up today on the news. I think that none of
the bids were over thirty dollars a share. Right now,
(06:08):
I believe Warner Brothers Discovery is trading somewhere like twenty
four bucks a share, which I think is a deal.
I don't know would I invest in traditional media. I
don't have any money. It's a tough question. Not sure.
We're keeping an eye on this cargo ship catching fire.
(06:29):
That is interesting stuff, but like you said, I lean
nobody's injured. That's great, very good. And coming up, we'll
talk about a nostalgic restaurant, a big chain that was
set in the scene for dining out in the eighties. Man,
it was a big deal. This is like this is
(06:52):
like the Workingman's Cheesecake Factory. OI, oh boy. We'll tell
you why they think that they're going to be the
next Chili's. And what happens if you don't have a
real ID and you go to the airport, what actually
happens to you? Twenty years after it was first proposed,
the real ID is now mandatory. You are told you
(07:12):
can't get it on an airplane, but there may be
a workaround, And of course it's gonna cost you. I'm
Andy Reesemeyer.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
We've got a little bit of time left here on
the show, and I wanted to talk about my favorite
place to kick back, hit the buffet and think about
the old days. You know where I'm talking.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Choices is the choice.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
With a slogan like that, how could they not have
been successful? Sizzler is the choice of America and has
choices every day. The marketing campaign from nineteen ninety one
proposes that you might go to Sizzler every day. It
is a daily place. At one point in the nineties
(08:14):
they had seven hundred locations. Now Sizzler only has seventy four.
We've talked at link on this show about how much
Sizzler needs to succeed. I had thought it was out
of business until some very lovely callers told me, no,
there's so many in the valley, even not far not
far from here. So we're gonna do it. We're gonna
(08:37):
do a field trip sometime, Aileen, and we're gonna all
go to head on down to Sissler. There's running Fulver
City too, is there? Yeah? Oh? Man, I went there recently.
Speaker 6 (08:47):
Was it good?
Speaker 2 (08:48):
What was the vibe? You know, for what you pay,
it's not bad. Yeah, I mean that's the whole idea.
You know, everything now is so expensive that Sizzler's looking
to carve out a little niche. I mean it's not
Morton's and atmospheres, you know not. Are you telling me?
Are you telling me that the buffet with questionable cottage
(09:08):
cheese pineapple spots just hanging out of you, that that's
not for you.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
I'm you know what, I love fine dining and I
also do like dive bar plays. Oh yeah me, Oh
it's okay. I'm not too stuck up for Sizzler.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I'm somewhere. I'm somewhere in between a dive bar and
a nice restaurant all the time. So maybe that is
what Sizzler is going to be. I launched back in
nineteen fifty eight. The whole idea was to make a
steakhouse that was affordable as fast food was sweeping the
United States. Like we said, only seventy four Sizzler restaurants
remain in the US, and now they're looking for a rebirth.
(09:46):
Robert Clark, he's the chief growth officer for Sizzler that's
a tough job. He says. The brand screwed up when
they tried to change what they were known for for
fast casual dining. I had not known that they changed
anything at all. I thought that they just closed. They
said that the strategy of changing with the times did
not work. The current leadership is now focused on let's
(10:09):
take the best to Sizzler and make it even better.
I mean, I have not heard one specific thing that
they're going to do other than that it's going to
be better. They're updating restaurants. Better be careful. Remember what
happened with Cracker Barrel could be a disaster. They're going
to remodel, stay relevant. There's that the what is it
(10:30):
the Monterey Chicken? Is that what they make there? Or
though that's Chili's. I've only had the Ribbi, Honestly, the Ribbi.
I thought that it was all buffet situation. Oh, you
can choose a buffet or not. Well, why wouldn't you
do that? I mean, what are you going there for?
What would you be a Sizzler? You want to go
to Sizzler to just get like a like a Taylor
(10:50):
Ham Like, What's what is the point of Sizzler? If
not to buffet, I don't know. I'm not a buffet person.
I'm missing out, I guess. I guess. So we got
to talk back. Let's listen. M hmm, let's listen to
that talk too. Andy Reeseman, first of all, love it.
(11:14):
He said it wrong. I love Andy Reesman. That's great,
Andy Reeseman. I definitely think that you're sativa guy. That's
what I'm smoking to each night. I have said before
on the record that I am not cool enough to
do drugs. I like true, like that is. I learned
(11:37):
that in high school. It's stuck with me into my thirties.
But I respect it. As long as you're safe, it's legal.
You gotta do what you gotta do. What's this whole
thing sativa is for the It's kind of like.
Speaker 7 (11:48):
The head Hi allow me to take over the couch.
Eva will get you apparently up, and Indi Coau will
put you in the couch. But most strains these days
are hybrid. Anyways, It's hard to find one that's just
indica and one that's just a stieve.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
But and I understand some people like it for creativity,
But isn't the whole kind of the idea of of
weed is to like relax.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
No, maybe not.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
I don't think it to relax.
Speaker 7 (12:16):
I mean I'm actually sometimes you know, it stops my
appetite and I'm cleaning the house.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
So it depends on the person and how you react.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I would never be able to clean the house. Oh no,
it gets me, is Zen why I'd like star? It's
hard enough for me to focus on one task in
a clear eye cloud in mind, you know what I mean,
like just a in a normal headspace, I'd be like
building legos. I'd be going getting puzzles out of the closet.
I'd be going to the storage container and then coming back.
(12:45):
I mean, it would be a bad day for me
cleaning the house. But I appreciate the call and the
talk back. Very nice, very fun. Eileen, you want to
take it away? Are you too? Are we too early?
I don't know I can take it away. I just
was like I wanted to do another story here, but
(13:06):
I feel like I don't have time. Is it the
indicca kicking in?
Speaker 1 (13:13):
What time?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Is it?
Speaker 5 (13:14):
Wait? Is it? Wait?
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Am I feeling it?
Speaker 5 (13:16):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Do I feel it?
Speaker 5 (13:17):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Am I feeling it? Wait?
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Is it?
Speaker 6 (13:18):
Hap?
Speaker 7 (13:19):
I think Si Sizzler goes together really beautifully, though that
could be does one of.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Them make you want to eat more? Or is it
kind of all the same?
Speaker 7 (13:26):
I think that's the cannabinoid, the CBN. I think that's
the thing in it that makes you hungry and so
you can like it doesn't always impact people in that way,
like I give it to my bunny rabbits.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
Is a life extender.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Oh my god, wow, liquid, I.
Speaker 8 (13:43):
Give them enough for a great saying.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Not CBD, you give them like actual THHC. Yes, is
that illegal?
Speaker 7 (13:50):
It's totally legal, and it's good for all mammals. Okay,
it's a life extend And my last rabbit lived until
he was fifteen years because I'd get him super hot.
Speaker 8 (14:03):
He loved that.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
He was happy.
Speaker 7 (14:05):
He lay about and ate and just be cute until
he was fifteen and he died.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
It's not bunny abuse, I guess. I guess, like the
good thing. The phone lines are not open because we
were about to get lit up. No, I gave my
cat CBD when he broke his leg. That's also not real.
I'm sorry, right, Like CBD's no CBG's real.
Speaker 7 (14:25):
CBD is psychotropic as well, but the the THHC is
that's the one that gets you feeling that real hot
got it? Yeah, that existential crisis. If you can't handle it, well,
we ate up a couple of minutes.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
There.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
Just past nine thirty. You fly in soon. There's lots
to think about. Do you have your real ID as?
You know it's mandatory now. They were like a billion extensions.
I didn't even realize this. Theore Regional Real id Law
was signed more than twenty years ago by President George Bush.
(15:09):
That's forever ago. The second Bush finally implemented by Secretary
Christy nom as of May twenty twenty five. So if
you fly without a real idea or passport, you may
get on the plane. When I went in the beginning
of May, I had got my real idea, but it
wasn't in my possession yet. It was just like a
(15:33):
little piece of paper that said real Ideas on its way,
and they made me go into a different line. This
is the Burbank Airport. They made me go way over
stand somewhere else. A bunch of other people got to go.
I got a little note card that was sort of
like a shame on you it's a law you have
to you got byed, but you are out of compliance,
and then they would say out of compliances next then
(15:55):
yell at you and stuff. It was very It was
like the movie Brazil. But if you're attempting to fly
with that real idea or passport, you can make your
problem go away, just like every other way with money.
A new security screening program will cost you eighteen bucks
and we'll get you access to the airport without a
(16:18):
real ID for ten days. Now this is an optional thing.
I guess the other option would be to just go
up to the TSA guy and cry and say like
I got to get to my family. I don't know.
But when you do the program, you have to submit
information like, according to the TSA biographic and or biometric
(16:40):
info to verify your identity. Then they put you on
the secure flight watch list result. But here's the kicker.
The program does not guarantee someone will be granted access
beyond the checkpoint and into the airport. And if you
use this program, you may be subject to additional screening
or experience delay. But they got your eighteen bucks. Neat
(17:05):
just another little layer of h double hockey sticks at
the airport. This is another big shocker that I feel
like I was gonna say it till Sunday and maybe
make a call in about it. But maybe we can
just we'll maybe do that again. But the Trio Department
(17:25):
of Transportation on Wednesday unveiled a campaign aimed at bringing
more civility to air travel, urging Americans to dress with
respect when bored in an airplane. No more yoga pants,
Mario darn, not even the not even the what do
(17:46):
you call them? Like the what you put under like
the jim shorts by the legs, No leggings, No, no
anything that goes swish swish, jim attire. Uh must have quit.
I think what would qualify as you shouldn't wear that?
I don't know. They didn't say specifically, but the plan
is called the Golden Age of Travel starts with you.
(18:07):
It's supposed to jumpstart a nationwide conversation of how about
how we can all restore courtesy in class to air travel.
This comes from Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy. It's called a
civility campaign. Of course, people do not behave themselves on airplanes.
This is not news. The Transportation Department doesn't say what
(18:28):
it means by dressing with respect. But in a social
media post, Secretary Duffy said, dress up to go to
the airport, help a stranger out, and be in a
good mood.
Speaker 8 (18:41):
That's like in the nineteen fifties when people wore suits
and frocks to fly.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Yeah. But the difference is they just did that because
it was culturally acceptable. This is the government telling you
you have to do it.
Speaker 7 (18:51):
You know what The big difference is, actually what's up?
They were allowed to smoke on the fly.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
That is a big you are right? Can you believe
that they had a little smoking section on an airplane
like as if like, oh yeah, no, the smoke will
stop once.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I remember that there were ash trades in the little
little seats.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Oh yeah, weird right on the armrests. It didn't work
at Chili's, it's not going to work on an airplane.
You cannot separate those two things. But they also asked
air travelers to ask themselves if they are doing the
following things to ensure civility, helping a pregnant woman or
elderly person with placing their bags in the overhead bin,
(19:29):
are you dressing with respect? Are you keeping control of
your children and helping them through the airport. Are you
saying thank you to your flight attendants? Are you saying
please and thank you? In general? These are all things
that I think are great, simple, respectful. You should be
doing this already, But there is something so icky when
the federal government, it's a societal issue, tells you you
(19:50):
must do this. It is a societal issue, and I
understand that people are buck wild at the airport, but
you also have to realize it is so impossibly awful
to fly these days. It's expensive, it takes forever, You
have no power. You are just asked to sit and
(20:12):
go where you are called upon. My friend Bobby, who
I do do a live show with on the weekends,
said airport is the Olympics of rules. You just got
to go and do all the things like they tell
you to, and so no wonder people lose their minds
and go postal by the way, A travel expert Daniel
Green says, at the end of the day, I think
(20:33):
it's just a well intentioned messaging campaign and behaving well
in public will likely have no practical or tangible implications
for people. So glad we did it. We did it.
Joe the rise in unruly passenger stems from several issues,
including alcohol, drugs, mental health issues, as well as that
(20:53):
one guy who was just not even real. Remember him?
That guy over there, he is not real?
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Is that the woman who said she saw some alien
or something else?
Speaker 2 (21:07):
No, she never said what it was. Yeah, that was
the craziest thing I ever heard. By the way, The
Hollywood Christmas Parade is happening Sunday, November thirtieth, twenty twenty five.
It'll be hosted by Elizabeth Stanton, Eric Astrada, Laura Mackenzie.
The Grand Marshal will be Luke Wilson. Humanitarian of the
(21:27):
Year award will go to Anthony Anderson. Of course, it's
just up and down Hollywood Boulevard. It is the ninety
third time they have done the Hollywood Christmas Parade. And
guess what I'm gonna be there, baby who? I was
asked by Wendy Birch, Robert Pointe, Samantha Cortese myself will
(21:48):
be riding in one of the cars at the Hollywood
Christmas Parade, So we would love to see you if
you're going to make it out there. That, of course,
is the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Are you gonna dress like
an elf on the show. Yeah, I'll be an elf
on the shelf for the back of the convertible.
Speaker 5 (22:02):
You know.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
My tights, maybe bells. I have bells on.
Speaker 8 (22:07):
You got the legs for it.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
Oh, you don't know me at all? All Right, before
we leave, I tell you stupidest story. You do dumb
things when you're young, Right when you're like in your
early twenties, you try to figure out what you are
as a person. You're in la, you're lonely, you're by yourself.
Maybe you get bored one day because you've got nothing
(22:29):
to do, you got no money, you got the clippers.
Maybe you accidentally shave your legs, the whole leg and
you look in the mirror and you think, wow, those
are the laziest legs I've ever seen in my life.
Those are straight female legs. Gams. Those are some girl
gams sticking out of those jean shorts. Daisy Dukes, I
(22:52):
think not. I'll leave you with that mental image. It's
kf I AM six forty your life everywhere on the
art radio app.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Listening to KFI AM six forty on demand.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We made it through this two hour show. How about that?
There was a lot of pressure coming into here. You know,
Conway had a pretty serious party out there in your
Belinda Smart and final all very excited. Of course, that
is because we are trying to raise some awareness and
also some money there for postathon. You want a postathon, Eileen,
(23:35):
I believe I'm working. Okay, Yeah. It is the fifteenth
annual KFI Postathon. Shep Bruno's charity, Katerina's Club. What a
great event. More than twenty five thousand meals every week
to kids in need in southern California. And of course
because of your generosity as listeners. Conway was saying, we
got the best listeners out there. They're the smartest people.
They show up, they support good causes each other. When
(24:00):
Stefuj was in that accident, KFI listeners raised more than
one hundred thousand dollars for him. That is amazing, and
you can keep giving. For giving Tuesday for the Caterina's Club.
That'll be December second, from five am to eight p
eight pm. That is a week from Tuesday, at the
Anaheim White House at eight eight seven South Anaheim Boulevard.
(24:25):
You can also donate anytime at KFI AM six forty
dot com. Slash Pastathon, or you can find pasta and
sauce drop off locations and you can find that at
any Smart and Final and donate there as well, even
in Arizona and Nevada. So if you're heading out there
towards towards Vegas, before you give all your money to
(24:45):
mister Steve Winn, why don't you give it to give
it to some kids in need? Just thought, just an idea.
By the way, thirtieth anniversary of this unbelievable show.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Am I have nothing to eat over there?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You said you were making me dinner.
Speaker 6 (25:07):
I don't cook anymore?
Speaker 2 (25:10):
How much does re make fun of my cooking? I'll
look at him.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
I want to look at him, Robert answer me.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Thirty years since Everybody Loves Raymond went on the air,
and now there will be a thirtieth anniversary special to
honor and remember the show. The special will be on
CBS and also Paramount Plus. And I believe it is
(25:45):
airing on November twenty fourth, so that would be what Tuesday?
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Monday? Monday night? And you can see it on CBS
starting at eight pm. Oh, that will be here, We'll
be here. Maybe we'll pop it up up on the
TV while we're here and just pop in what we're doing.
It will be hosted by Patricia Heaton Ray Romano. Of course,
they will do tributes to Doris Roberts and Peter Boyle
(26:13):
played Ray's parents. I think Brad Garrett is also there.
Very very fun stuff that show, and especially Phil Rosenthal
of the creator that show, created the diner you know
that opened today or yesterday in Largemont. It's very fun.
So a lot happening around that. But it's not the
(26:36):
only show that's covered back, at least in some capacity.
(27:04):
A reboot of Baywatch will be one of seventeen television
productions receiving tax credits through California's Film and Television Incentive program.
That's according to Governor Kevin Newsom's office. Oh yeah, I
just love the show. Baywatch will be filmed, of course
(27:24):
in LA at the historic Venice Beach Lifeguard Operation Station.
That's where it will be shot. The original, of course,
starred David Hassloff and Pamela Anderson, one of the most iconic,
quintessentially LA shows. Latest round of the projects were selected
for California's Film and Television tax credit program. They will
employ over fifty one hundred cast and crew, as well
(27:46):
as nearly thirty six thousand background performers. California's going to
spend about nine hundred million dollars to keep production here.
Of course, Baywatch, which was born in la will be
back here. That's according to exact A producer Matt Nix.
He started working on the show earlier this year when
California wildfire fires destroyed his house, saying he was inspired
(28:10):
by the heroism of the first responders. Oh hold on,
I was not allowed to watch, of course. I don't
know why. I don't know what wouldn't be appropriate to
an eight year old. Nobody's any fun. Nobody's any fun.
(28:31):
By the way, speaking of fun, I don't know if
you saw last week' Saturday Night Live an incredible impression
of Sebastian Manuscalco done by Marcelo Hernandez. What's up, everybody?
This is Sebastian Maniscalco and this is my reaction to
the impersonation of me on Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 6 (28:51):
You're I'm gonna believe.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
The first thing I had noticed?
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Do they think I'm that great?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
I The ray hair was a little and then the
traffic was on another level. So I'm known for being
a very physical comedian. The movements are very exaggerated, which
it makes it even more funny. If he just did this,
it wouldn't have been funny.
Speaker 8 (29:19):
Sort of fact that he's really getting into it, that's
what's driving the sketch.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
What I am blown away by here is that he
Sebastian man of Scalco, the actual one, is trying to
distance himself from this incredible one for one impression. It's
like Sebastian Maniscalco is like, I don't talk like that.
I'm not talking like it at all. They got me all.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Wrong over annunciation of the physical humor is something that
I really got to kick out of.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
I don't like twister. You heard a twister? He goes
left hand to purple. And someone just told me this recently.
Speaker 7 (29:56):
I think it was my wife that purple isn't even a.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
That he said verbal. I thought that was what you
can be met.
Speaker 6 (30:04):
Let me tell you.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Yeah, I never wear a turtle neck, but you could
pull it off. I never understood the turtle neck, but yeah,
the turtleneck has been You wear a turtleneck, you don't
look like a turtleneck here. Good stuff. All righty, I'm
gonna get out of here. We've got a coast to
coast coming up in just a little bit. If you
want to say hello, you can always do that at
(30:27):
Andy KTLA. I will be back here. I think, what's
the same crew on Sunday? Is that right?
Speaker 6 (30:33):
Nikki?
Speaker 2 (30:34):
I'll be here, Mario, I'll be here, and I'll be
here and I will also be here, so we will
have two more hours of this excellence starting at two
pm on Sunday. Sunday Sunday, and a big shout out
to Andrew mcmanniquin Andrew McMahon, who is a member of
a band called Jack's Mannequin, who tomorrow will be doing
(30:54):
a homecoming show in Orange County after a long tour
twenty years since the Jackspann and debut record Everything in
Transit homecoming show. Lots of local Orange County people are
