Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
KFI AM six forty is.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Conway Show all day long. We've been talking about this
death investigation, this crash on the four or five southbound
right near Getty. And as you locked up, you know,
if you were planning and getting home and spending time
with your family, having dinner, going to a movie, maybe
a walk, walking the dog, your dog's home alone, you're
(00:31):
gonna be home about an hour, maybe an hour and
a half later, if you've got to go through this.
It's the Supulvita Pass southbound on the four or five
near Getty. There was an accident earlier. Tow truck driver
showed up to tow one of the cars hit a person,
killed a person, and then that tow truck driver was
(00:53):
given a field sobriety test which he or she I'm
guessing he didn't pass. And now he's been taken away
and the corner is there though I've noticed that the
corners there, so there is some movement, but it's at
a snail's pace. They've got to gather all the information
(01:14):
in case there is a court case, and somebody is
going to be prosecuted for this. All the information is
right there on the freeway, and they've got to take
pictures and talk to witnesses.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
And it's a mess. It's a mess.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
So four or five southbound, I try to find it
an alternative. It's not good. Here's the update. It exactly
six minutes ago, fresh fresh audio.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Well, now, this accident happened around two o'clock. That's when
the CHP got calls from the public saying that there
was a person in lanes down in lanes here. When
those officers arrived, they found that person and pronounced that
person dead. At the scene. You see this tow truck here.
I'm going to zoom in real quick. There's extensive damage
done to that tow truck and back aways is the
(02:03):
person's vehicle here, the person that was struck right here.
So it looks like the tow truck struck the person
that was outside of the vehicle and then struck their
vehicle and then ended up down down the ways here.
Now I could tell you that we watched the tow
truck driver getting a field sobriety test by the California
Higher Patrol and he was taken into custody a short
time later. In the meantime, traffic is at a standstill.
(02:25):
Just about only one lane open at this time. That's
the latest overhead of its sky five.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
All right, sky five up overhead, so as that opens,
we'll have it up for you. There's a great Malibu restaurant,
iconic I call it called the Malibu Real Inn, great
fish place, that burned to the ground in the January
fires on January seventh. And now they may not be
able to rebuild because that's government property and you lease
(02:53):
it from the government, and the government is being a
little stingy with that property and wants to go another
direction other than the Real In.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Allistates fire destroyed a unique pocket of historical businesses the
Tapega Canyon Boulevard and Pacific Coast Highway on the eastern
edge of Malibu, the Topega Ranch Motel, Wiley's Bait and Tackle,
Chilada Tie, Rosenthal Wine Bar, and the Real In Seafood
restaurant that's fed surfers and tourists for nearly forty years.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Have you ever been out there, belly O? Have you
been to the Real Inn in Malibu? Do you ever
go out there with Johnny your boyfriend have not her husband?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Sorry? Yeah, whatever, you've not been there.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
I have.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
You'd love this, Sam has? I think Sam, you've been
out there to the reel End.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
I used to drive by it all the time on
PCH and I went by there one time. Food was
great if you let you can't go wrong with seafood
spots up and down PCH. And that's one that had
a very like iconic place just because of where it
was located on Tipega and PCH.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Do you get out there?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Krozier, your landlocked, so I imagine you never probably even
Maliba they reel in and Malibu. No, I'm outside of
my purview. You're more of a red lobster guy. Sure, yeah, yeah,
they boil in a bag.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Seafood places are always nice.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
What about you, Angel, You get around in a good way.
You know you would get out there.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
Yeah, it's been a long time and real the reel
In and also moon Shadows.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Moon Shadow, that's great.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
Yeah, that was my favorite restaurant as a kid. I
love to go there, and so you know, all those
places that were destroyed sucks.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
It's just sad.
Speaker 8 (04:40):
But when i'd go to Fish of course we would
go to Wiley's Bait and Tackle chill lot of tie
all the time to get some curry.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Oh I didn't understand when they said this chill lot
of tie, Chalota tie.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I thought that's.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
I gotta get out more often. I thought that's a
guy that sells ties, you know, necktie. I didn't know
it's a tie restaurant, So my bad. A lot of
time I was wondering how many ties is the guy moving?
He's got a tie store long Malibu. I guess yeah, got.
Speaker 8 (05:11):
A lot of a lot of tie all the time
to get some curry, some bad tie. But I mean
really was like my spot, Like that's where I'd always
go for clamp jowder after Today.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
The LEDWP is using the land, which is owned by
California State Parks, which recently informed the destroyed businesses their
leases are canceled and they can't rebuild.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Ah, how about that government can just cancel you.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Due to the catastrophic property loss associated with the Palisades fire,
DPR has regretfully determined that it will not continue to
lease this site.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
We thought that somebody at State Parks at some point
would go, look, we're remodeling the whole place down there. Anyway,
these guys have got good press. Why don't we lean
in with them and do something cool?
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, why don't they do that? Why don't they open
up a very iconic, beautiful restaurant that a lot of
people enjoyed and make some money. You can make money,
you know, off the sale of great food.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
And let's do it rather sooner than later, because it'll
make it look like we're getting things going down.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
I'm with him. I think this guy's odd. Now he's
got his eye on the prize.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
And the phone not only didn't ring, but we got
that letter two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Yeah, letter says it's over.
Speaker 9 (06:25):
The real Inn says it would be too expensive to
operate what they had at another location. Leasing from the
state park allowed them to offer high quality seafood at
a reasonable price.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
It's a snake chomping on its own tail, because the
Real Inn wouldn't be us old school funky fish shack
if it didn't have that handicap on the property. Because
if that were a plate glass and aluminum restaurant, you'd
be paying forty dollars for a piece of fish because
you'd be paying for the real estate and the building
because it was in those circumstances we were able to
(06:58):
do what we did and people fell in the with
it because that's the way.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
It used to be. Yeah, it was great. It was
old school.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Well, you don't find restaurants like that anymore, just you know,
like picnic tables, paper plates. It was just a great hang.
The fish and chips was terrific, and that's gone.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
The state has offered the reel in nearby land for
a food truck, but owner Andy Leonards says it's a
bad location with no sewer, no running water, and he'd
have to bid on it.
Speaker 8 (07:27):
The same thing's going to happen like that happened with
the PingER Rant. It's gonna sit empty for years. So
at least let these people just open back up.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
That's right, get back to work.
Speaker 8 (07:34):
I mean, these people are out of jobs.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
It's terrible.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Yeah, it's tough to open up a restaurant though, with
no sewer and no running water, two things that are
very necessary when you open up a restaurant in Malibu.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Josh Haskell ABC seven Eye with his Snooze.
Speaker 10 (07:47):
And just minutes ago we received a statement from California
State Parks and it says in part quote, State Parks
looks forward to continuing this dialogue with the Leonards and
to working together so that the real ind can once
be a place where residents and visitors alike gather in
a vibrant, welcome setting.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
I don't know. I don't think it'll ever reopen. I
think that anybody who went there just be lucky you
had the memories of going there. I think it is
done all right. The four 'h five still remains only
one lane open, one lane open southbound, and your trek
through there is probably an hour, maybe an hour and
(08:27):
a half backing up on the one oh one all
the way to Havenhurst near Balboa on the four or
five southbound closer to Burbank, and it's a mess trying
to get through there. It's going to add another hour,
hour and a half to your commute, So try to
find an alternate. There's not a lot of choices. The
canyons are backed up. You just got have to sit
through this one. You know, LA throws a lot at you,
(08:49):
and this is one of those cases bad timing, bad accident,
and now you're stuck paying the price. That's what LA
is all about, right, Just as much inconven unions as possible.
All right, rely on CAF forty. I AM six forty
is Conway Show. The four or five southbound is still
a mess near Getty in the Supulvita Pass. So if
(09:11):
you're taking that route, just be aware it's going to
take you a long time to get through that. And
it's no real alternative. Everything's jammed. However, we will be
on the air, so we'll be with you in the car.
We're sitting right there next to you. You know you're pissed.
We're not, but you are.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
And I get that. I get it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
On Friday, we had an accident in the family, a
car accident, and so a guy who I've met over
the last three or four months help me out. He
owns some car dealerships out in Hemmett. I think it's Ford,
(09:55):
Hyundai and Chevrolet.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
I believe.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Tim Moran, you may know him. He has huge car
dealerships out there in Hennet. So he was kind enough to,
you know, look at the car and give me his
opinion how it should be fixed and everything. To drop
it off there and see if you know insurance is
paying for it. And he said, you know, his collision
(10:23):
guy's really good and I believe him very honest dude.
So I drove from Burbank to Hennett, which is ninety
two miles, and we left at around four o'clock from Burbank,
and we got to Hemmett at about seven thirty. And
(10:44):
if you did the quick math, you're right it was
about three and a half hours to go ninety two miles.
And if you think about if you did the also
again with the math, it's about thirty miles an hour,
a little less than thirty miles an hour for three hours,
(11:08):
but it was worth it. I like to get out
and see that part of the world. I like him itt.
I like the wide open space there. Reminds me of
the valley when I was growing up in the seventies.
Big streets, big open spaces.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
I enjoyed it. I like it. And you're going to take.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Three hours anyway, so you just you know, eat the
time and listen to podcasts or radio, and nobody seems
to be in a hurry out there, which I.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Like as well.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
So but on the way back, we stopped at a
local casino there for a couple hours, my wife and
I and on the way back it took about an
hour and ten minutes to get home, hour and fifteen
minutes to get home, which is frustrating to go somewhere
where it takes you three and a half hours to
get there and then an hour and fifteen or an
(11:56):
hour and twenty to get home.
Speaker 7 (11:58):
You do the math.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Yeah, they're flying on the way home.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
We were moving, and.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I don't like if the speed limits sixty five, I
like to keep I don't like to keep it much
over seventy five. I think that's when you get into
trouble at the cops. But if I keep it around seventy
three seventy four, I think I'm okay with that.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
And if you're.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Driving seventy four miles an hour on any of those freeways,
the fifteen, the sixty, the ninety one, the two ten,
people are flying by you, you're like you're standing still.
And not today though, on that four or five Any
update angel on when this freeway is going to open up.
Have they given you a different time or we're still
looking at eight o'clock.
Speaker 7 (12:39):
You know, I just checked in with the Highway Patrol
and it's just the same thing. No new language has
been sent out. They're just saying all lanes unknown duration that,
but it is the carpooling that's open. It's the main
line lanes that remained shut down.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Okay, so there's one lane open.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
Yes, it's only the carpooling that's opens.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
The carpooling. Ah right, all right, all right, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Spirit Airlines one of the favorite airlines that people living
in southern California.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
People love Spirit Airlines. So it's cheap.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
You can get there, you know, get where you're going,
not spend a lot of money. If you don't want
anything on the flight. You can't bring your bag, you
can't bring food, you can't bring your wallet, you can't
bring anything. You got to show up nude on Spirit Airlines.
And then in that case it's inexpensive. But they're stopping
flights and that's not a good sign for an airline
(13:27):
when they're starting to reduce cities that they operate in.
Speaker 11 (13:30):
Spirit Airlines announcing their departure from the Bay Area on Wednesday,
coming ABC seven News in a statement, as a part
of our efforts to transform our business and position Spirit
for long term success, we are adjusting our network to
focus on our strongest performing markets. Well, the airline is
stopping routes from San Jose Airport too. It's Oakland Airport
that is likely to be the most impacted.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Oh no, Oakland takes another shot. Oakland had a Denny's
close because of crime, they had in and out close
because of crime. And now you've got Spirit Airlines saying no,
we're not flying there anymore.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
They got to get it together in Oakland.
Speaker 11 (14:06):
Clint Henderson is a travel et spert for The Point Sky.
He says oak has seen a steady decline in the
number of airlines serving it for the past ten years.
Speaker 12 (14:14):
These things tend to feed on themselves, and I think
a lot of the traffic has shifted to SFO. You know,
the more flights you have, the more popular you get,
the more people you get in and out of the airport.
Speaker 11 (14:26):
The airport itself, though, striking a more positive tone, telling
me Spirit represented less than three percent of our recent
seat availability and daily flights at oak All right.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
So Spirit Airlines not going in the right direction. The Powerball.
Two people won the power Ball on Saturday. Well, I
was not in any of the pools that won. I'm
in three different pools and they're all losers, total losers.
But somebody in Missouri one and somebody in Texas one.
(14:56):
And so we come back, we'll find out how much
they get. They're going to split it, but it's an
awful lot of money. We're live on Cape. And also,
thank God for the NFL. I spent all day Sunday
watching these games. I can't tell you how pleasurable that
is to turn the TV on at nine o'clock in
(15:16):
the morning, get the pregame going, get the you know
your your teams, and you can watch any team play
any other team in the NFL. It's just amazing athletes
doing amazing things and the score going up and down.
That Bills. I don't know, Krozer, I know you're a
football fan. Did you catch the Bills game last night?
(15:37):
I saw the tail edited the comeback. Oh my god,
incredible that I was. I was screaming in the house
when that thing ended. Man, it just sometimes it just
feels like the Ravens are cursed. Yeah, yeah, didn't get
over that hump man. Man, the Bills what a comeback.
I think they were down by sixteen points with you know,
like nine minutes left and won the game. It was credible,
(16:00):
incredible game. But to watch the Rams win, which was cool.
The Dodgers also won after losing five straight, and so
that anytime the Dodgers and the Rams win on a Sunday,
it makes my life much better.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
I know.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I'm following these you know teams my whole life, and
I still get depressed when they lose, and I'm screaming
when they win.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Ah, your childlike innocence is so sweet. Yeah, I guess so.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Not recording my wife, She's like, you got to keep
it down. So whistling and the clapping and the throwing
of crap. I was acting like a child. I was
even going crazy when the Bills won. I couldn't believe that.
You know, with no seconds, with zero time on the clock,
kicking a field goal to beat Baltimore was an incredible comeback.
And to win the first game of the year is
(16:48):
a is really important. You know, you can't go undefeated
unless you win that first game. And half the teams
are out already. So NFL, I watched the ten o'clock
game and the one o'clock game that the evening game
that comes on. It's the greatest sport ever. The greatest
organization maybe in America is the National Football league.
Speaker 5 (17:09):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
We're live on KFI. You're listening to Tim Conway Junior
on demand from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
KFI AM six forty. It is the Conway Show. The
four or five is all messed up. Four or five
southbound through bulb of the pass is gonna cost you
an extra hour, maybe an hour and a half. And
it was over a collision that cost somebody their life.
So I think about that. You're gonna be delayed for
(17:43):
an hour and somebody's life is over. So you got
the better end of that. But it's still frustrating to
be on the freeways and not moving.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
I get it. I went.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I had a three hour drive on Friday, and I
know to me, to sit there stopped on the freeway sucks.
But look at it this way. The summer is over
in southern California. The heat that we've been experiencing for
the last two weeks is going away tomorrow, and the temperature,
(18:17):
the high temperatures in the San Fernando Valley will be
eighty two tomorrow, then seventy nine on Wednesday and seventy
nine on Thursday. You'll feel that cool air going down
to fifty nine degrees at night. So these long shadows
that you're experiencing right now, if you're on the freeway
(18:37):
or on the streets of southern California, you're listening to
kfive and you know what I mean. This is fall
in southern California, the sun going down with these long
ass shadows. And you when you go to stores, if
you're a retail nut like I am, where you go
to Walmart, Low's Target Home depot, you start to see
(19:03):
the change in seasons. We don't have seasons out here.
The only way we know that time is moving on
if you go back to if you go into Target
or Walmart or Walmart and you go back to seasonal
and you see the change there, then you know that
Halloween is around the corner. The pumpkins are out, the
(19:26):
school supplies are going away, so that's over. The costumes
are out for Halloween. The pumpkin spice is on everything now,
from Cheerio's, gott Almighty. Everything has pumpkin spice now everything.
And my wife bought one of those pumpkin spice like
(19:47):
short brooms that you can get at the grocery store,
and it smells like pumpkin spice, which is awesome.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
The broom.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Yeah, it looks like an old fashioned broom belly, you
know I'm talking. Yeah, it's scented. Yeah, it's scented. And
I and we have that in our house. I bought.
This is the story of my life. I was at
home depot last night and I saw pumpkins for sale
and I needed to get I went to home Depot
(20:16):
to get a filter for the air conditioner. You know
the air filter. You're usually like twenty five inches by
twenty inches. You stick it and it keeps your system clean.
So I go to home Depot and I see pumpkins, beautiful,
brand new pumpkins for sale eight dollars each. I've got
(20:36):
that kind of money. I threw two beautiful ones in
the cart. Then I look at filters, and filters are
expensive there, so I said, I'm gonna wait and go
to Walmart tonight with my wife. This is last night
to buy the filters because she had to pick up
some things at Walmart. So I get home, we go
to Walmart. I see the exact same pumpkins that they
(21:00):
offered at home depot, not for eight dollars. For four
dollars and fifty cents. Could have saved some money there.
Then I go back to filters, and the filters were
more expensive there than they were at Home Depot. So
I bought more expensive filters at Walmart and more expensive
pumpkins at home Depot, and I spent instead of the
(21:23):
other way around, I spent more at each place.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
And that's the story of my life.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
I buy something and then two days later I see
it on sale for half price at another store.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
It's always been that way.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
When we drive to Oregon, I'll stop and get fast food,
and then a mile after we're done eating this crappy food,
I see brand new steakhouse open free steaks for everybody,
you know, something like that. But I love the pumpkin
spice in the air. I know Bellio is a big
pumpkin fan, my wife as well. I think that's sort
of a gender thing. I don't hear a lot of
(21:57):
guys talking about the introduct of pumpkin and everything, but
just the vibe in the markets where they're you know,
they're setting up for fall. You're getting the fall colors
in the fall smells, and we're we've left summer and
it's great because we've avoided a tremendous heat wave so far,
so far over the summer. You know, we've had summers
(22:21):
where we've had three or four days in row where
it's one hundred and fifteen degrees and that didn't happen
this summer, which was terrific.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
It still could still happen.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
But these long shadows in southern California are the welcoming
of a new season. And if you've got kids, you
know what I'm talking about. They're back in school, they're
getting ready for Halloween. Maybe you decorated the house for Halloween,
and it's a sense of moving on and coming into
a season that a lot of people enjoy. They love Halloween,
(22:55):
they love Thanksgiving, they love Christmas and Hanukkah.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Those are the major holidays that are.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Coming our way. And you can see it and smell
it in the air and you can feel it.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
And so.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Just think about that, that that we're getting closer to Halloween.
I was a big Halloween fan growing up. I probably
dressed up way too late in life. I remember I
was fifteen and I was going out with my buddies.
We're going to meet at Winchell's Donuts and Encino. We're
all going to meet there with our you know, pillow
(23:32):
cases and go try to get you know, halloween candy
around the block. And when I was fifteen, I was
going to dress up like a woman for Halloween. That
was going to be my costume, right, and you know,
bart stuffed my mom. We were about the same size,
and that was going to be it. Little makeup, hair
(23:52):
done bo. So my dad drives me to Winchell's. I
was only fourteen or fifteen. I look inside Winchells. I
see all my friends. I see Matt McDaniel, Mike Tennessee,
Todd Crouch, Billy Ray, Scott Bloom, Robbie Fox, Mark Ash.
I see all those guys and they're all in Winchles.
None of them have costumes on. They all have jeans
(24:17):
with plaid shirts on.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
They get the pillowcases.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
At least they're ready to go. They had the pillow case. Yep,
I had the pillow case. They're ready to go. I'm like, Dad,
you got to drive me home real quick. I got
to change out of this and then you got to
drive me back. He goes, ah, christ all right, So
he drives me home. Takes me five minutes to change.
I get back to Winchles. I walk into Winchles with
a plaid shirt on, you know, a flannel shirt, my jeans,
(24:40):
and my buddy Mac go's here.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Are you wearing eyeliner? Uh?
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yeah, but it's a longer story. It looks like you
have an eyeliner on and rouge or something.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
You have lipstick?
Speaker 11 (24:55):
Gun?
Speaker 2 (24:55):
What's going on with you, buddy?
Speaker 1 (24:58):
But I love this time of year, you know, especially
again when you have kids. They love this time of
year when it gets darker sooner and they know Halloweens
around the quarner and then Thanksgiving and then Christmas. It's
a great time of year. So I know you're stuck
in traffic. It sucks on the four or five by
it's only an hour delay. You didn't get killed on
(25:19):
the freeway. Somebody did, so you gotta remember that. And
we're starting a new season. So think about all the
fun you're gonna have with the kids going out to
trigger treating, Thanksgivings around the corner and Christmas. Try to
keep those in mind and put it in perspective. You
didn't die, You're gonna be an hour late, and there's
a big difference, all right. Relyve on KFIM six forty
(25:41):
KFI AM six forties Conway Show. If if you live
in where's this Torrents and you didn't get your mail,
it may have been destroyed intentionally. The United States Post
Office has confirmed that thousands of pieces of mail were
intentionally destroyed after a main post office right there in Torrance, California,
(26:02):
was contaminated with asbestos. So it's the latest development in
an ongoing situation at the facility. In July, the city
began relocating retail and PO boxes due to potential asbestos exposure,
and while testing found no asbesis in the air ducts
or customer areas, further inspection revealed that all remaining property
(26:27):
inside the building, including mail and packages, had.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
To be destroyed. How about that?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
So the USPS told KTLA and KFI here approximately four
thousand pieces of mail were destroyed. So that's great. Now,
if you have insurance, your insurance might pay for it.
If you don't have insurance, contact the Torrents Post Office
for all uninsured claims. Another thing to worry about, another
(26:56):
thing to make calls gets down there, take some time
off and deal with that. So a lot of fun
living in California. We throw a lot at you Sea
Crane Sea Crane greatest radios in the world. Go get
yourself a sea crane radio. You're gonna need it if
there's a power outage emergency and you can't rely on
(27:17):
your internet.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
They have the best radios in the world.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Go to c crane dot COM's letter C and then
Crane cr A n E c crane dot Com. I
was listening to a ce Crane radio over the weekend
while working in the yard. I enjoyed that came in
crystal clear. That's I love about it. I love those
Seacrane radios. Now, the powerball, you didn't win. Two people did,
(27:39):
one in Texas and one in Missouri. They're gonna split
the big one point almost one point eight billion dollars
in winnings.
Speaker 13 (27:49):
This is the store and the exact counter where half
of the one point eight billion dollar powerball lottery ticket. Sure,
everyone in Fredericksburg says the same thing should have been.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Me one point eight billion.
Speaker 12 (28:01):
That's how much it was.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Damn, she's just getting news of how much it was.
It was out there. There was one point eight billion,
and she didn't know one point eight billion right much
it was.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
He was out there. Information was out there. I'm gonna
come here every day. At about five thirty.
Speaker 8 (28:20):
This morning, a bunch of friends of mine for texting
me asking me one to fire ball.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I didn't know what they knew, And when I heard
it was in Frederick Berger, was like, oh please God.
Speaker 13 (28:31):
Even though it's the stormy day in Fredericksburg, somewhere out
there someone in town could be getting showered with hundreds
of millions of dollars. How does it feel to have
your store be the one that sold one of the
two tickets.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
It's amazing.
Speaker 6 (28:44):
Never thought it could happen.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
But here we are.
Speaker 13 (28:47):
BIG's over on Highway to ninety and Jentschki Lane has
only been open seven months.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
What's the name of the place, Big, Big Bigs Bigs.
Speaker 13 (28:55):
But manager Melanie says that climbing powerball number has kept
customers walking in the door. You know when people come in,
do they do they talk about it a lot? Do
they bring up are they excited about?
Speaker 10 (29:04):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 13 (29:06):
We have people that want quick picks.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
We have people that pick.
Speaker 13 (29:08):
Their own numbers, and of course everybody what's your name?
Speaker 2 (29:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I wonder how many people who frequent Bigs are Indeed
big I'll bet it's a lot because.
Speaker 13 (29:19):
If I win, I'm coming back muchuld.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Oh it's place to open now and didn't stop.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
And I were like, hey, if we'd have stopped, maybe
we'd have got it, you know.
Speaker 12 (29:27):
So maybe, you know, since I'm here like every other day,
maybe it's one of my co workers.
Speaker 13 (29:32):
The other winning ticket was sold in Missouri, meaning these
winners could choose to take around four hundred and ten
million dollars home today or about eight hundred and ninety
three million dollars over the next thirty years.
Speaker 10 (29:43):
First off, I wouldn't tell anybody.
Speaker 8 (29:45):
I would hide my identity.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
I would hide that. I'd be a secret I would
take to my grave.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Well what did every You'll take? Thanks appreciate it?
Speaker 13 (29:53):
Well, everyone here might not want the spotlight if it
was them. Compassion still seems to be top of mind.
Speaker 5 (29:59):
They have a lot of faith. Yeah, I'll give a
lot of money.
Speaker 12 (30:02):
Because I'm a big lottery flyer.
Speaker 13 (30:04):
Do you ever get any tickets here?
Speaker 5 (30:06):
No?
Speaker 11 (30:07):
I was always told it's bad luck to purchase at
your store.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Lesson learned, I will start purchasing at my.
Speaker 13 (30:12):
Flour in Fredericksburg. I'm Devin kirk Pas at twelve Knicks.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Yeah, someone's got to get big ass check man billion
one point eight billion dollars. All right, Moe Kelly's coming
up next. I'm sure as soon as that four or
five opens up, he'll let you know. Okay, I'm Mo
Kelly and his whole crew next right here on KFI
AM six forty Conway Show, on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now,
you can always hear us live on KFI AM six
(30:38):
forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime
on demand on the iHeart Radio app
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
KFI AM six forty is.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Conway Show all day long. We've been talking about this
death investigation, this crash on the four or five southbound
right near Getty. And as you locked up, you know,
if you were planning and getting home and spending time
with your family, having dinner, going to a movie, maybe
a walk, walking the dog, your dog's home alone, you're
(00:31):
gonna be home about an hour, maybe an hour and
a half later, if you've got to go through this.
It's the Supulvita Pass southbound on the four or five
near Getty. There was an accident earlier. Tow truck driver
showed up to tow one of the cars hit a person,
killed a person, and then that tow truck driver was
(00:53):
given a field sobriety test which he or she I'm
guessing he didn't pass. And now he's been taken away
and the corner is there though I've noticed that the
corners there, so there is some movement, but it's at
a snail's pace. They've got to gather all the information
(01:14):
in case there is a court case, and somebody is
going to be prosecuted for this. All the information is
right there on the freeway, and they've got to take
pictures and talk to witnesses.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
And it's a mess. It's a mess.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
So four or five southbound, I try to find it
an alternative. It's not good. Here's the update. It exactly
six minutes ago, fresh fresh audio.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Well, now, this accident happened around two o'clock. That's when
the CHP got calls from the public saying that there
was a person in lanes down in lanes here. When
those officers arrived, they found that person and pronounced that
person dead. At the scene. You see this tow truck here.
I'm going to zoom in real quick. There's extensive damage
done to that tow truck and back aways is the
(02:03):
person's vehicle here, the person that was struck right here.
So it looks like the tow truck struck the person
that was outside of the vehicle and then struck their
vehicle and then ended up down down the ways here.
Now I could tell you that we watched the tow
truck driver getting a field sobriety test by the California
Higher Patrol and he was taken into custody a short
time later. In the meantime, traffic is at a standstill.
(02:25):
Just about only one lane open at this time. That's
the latest overhead of its sky five.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
All right, sky five up overhead, so as that opens,
we'll have it up for you. There's a great Malibu restaurant,
iconic I call it called the Malibu Real Inn, great
fish place, that burned to the ground in the January
fires on January seventh. And now they may not be
able to rebuild because that's government property and you lease
(02:53):
it from the government, and the government is being a
little stingy with that property and wants to go another
direction other than the Real In.
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Allistates fire destroyed a unique pocket of historical businesses the
Tapega Canyon Boulevard and Pacific Coast Highway on the eastern
edge of Malibu, the Topega Ranch Motel, Wiley's Bait and Tackle,
Chilada Tie, Rosenthal Wine Bar, and the Real In Seafood
restaurant that's fed surfers and tourists for nearly forty years.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Have you ever been out there, belly O? Have you
been to the Real Inn in Malibu? Do you ever
go out there with Johnny your boyfriend have not her husband?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Sorry? Yeah, whatever, you've not been there.
Speaker 5 (03:36):
I have.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
You'd love this, Sam has? I think Sam, you've been
out there to the reel End.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
I used to drive by it all the time on
PCH and I went by there one time. Food was
great if you let you can't go wrong with seafood
spots up and down PCH. And that's one that had
a very like iconic place just because of where it
was located on Tipega and PCH.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Do you get out there?
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Krozier, your landlocked, so I imagine you never probably even
Maliba they reel in and Malibu. No, I'm outside of
my purview. You're more of a red lobster guy. Sure, yeah, yeah,
they boil in a bag.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Seafood places are always nice.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
What about you, Angel, You get around in a good way.
You know you would get out there.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
Yeah, it's been a long time and real the reel
In and also moon Shadows.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Moon Shadow, that's great.
Speaker 7 (04:29):
Yeah, that was my favorite restaurant as a kid. I
love to go there, and so you know, all those
places that were destroyed sucks.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
It's just sad.
Speaker 8 (04:40):
But when i'd go to Fish of course we would
go to Wiley's Bait and Tackle chill lot of tie
all the time to get some curry.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Oh I didn't understand when they said this chill lot
of tie, Chalota tie.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
I thought that's.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
I gotta get out more often. I thought that's a
guy that sells ties, you know, necktie. I didn't know
it's a tie restaurant, So my bad. A lot of
time I was wondering how many ties is the guy moving?
He's got a tie store long Malibu. I guess yeah, got.
Speaker 8 (05:11):
A lot of a lot of tie all the time
to get some curry, some bad tie. But I mean
really was like my spot, Like that's where I'd always
go for clamp jowder after Today.
Speaker 4 (05:22):
The LEDWP is using the land, which is owned by
California State Parks, which recently informed the destroyed businesses their
leases are canceled and they can't rebuild.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Ah, how about that government can just cancel you.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Due to the catastrophic property loss associated with the Palisades fire,
DPR has regretfully determined that it will not continue to
lease this site.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
We thought that somebody at State Parks at some point
would go, look, we're remodeling the whole place down there. Anyway,
these guys have got good press. Why don't we lean
in with them and do something cool?
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Yeah, why don't they do that? Why don't they open
up a very iconic, beautiful restaurant that a lot of
people enjoyed and make some money. You can make money,
you know, off the sale of great food.
Speaker 5 (06:10):
And let's do it rather sooner than later, because it'll
make it look like we're getting things going down.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
I'm with him. I think this guy's odd. Now he's
got his eye on the prize.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
And the phone not only didn't ring, but we got
that letter two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Yeah, letter says it's over.
Speaker 9 (06:25):
The real Inn says it would be too expensive to
operate what they had at another location. Leasing from the
state park allowed them to offer high quality seafood at
a reasonable price.
Speaker 5 (06:36):
It's a snake chomping on its own tail, because the
Real Inn wouldn't be us old school funky fish shack
if it didn't have that handicap on the property. Because
if that were a plate glass and aluminum restaurant, you'd
be paying forty dollars for a piece of fish because
you'd be paying for the real estate and the building
because it was in those circumstances we were able to
(06:58):
do what we did and people fell in the with
it because that's the way.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
It used to be. Yeah, it was great. It was
old school.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Well, you don't find restaurants like that anymore, just you know,
like picnic tables, paper plates. It was just a great hang.
The fish and chips was terrific, and that's gone.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
The state has offered the reel in nearby land for
a food truck, but owner Andy Leonards says it's a
bad location with no sewer, no running water, and he'd
have to bid on it.
Speaker 8 (07:27):
The same thing's going to happen like that happened with
the PingER Rant. It's gonna sit empty for years. So
at least let these people just open back up.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
That's right, get back to work.
Speaker 8 (07:34):
I mean, these people are out of jobs.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
It's terrible.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Yeah, it's tough to open up a restaurant though, with
no sewer and no running water, two things that are
very necessary when you open up a restaurant in Malibu.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Josh Haskell ABC seven Eye with his Snooze.
Speaker 10 (07:47):
And just minutes ago we received a statement from California
State Parks and it says in part quote, State Parks
looks forward to continuing this dialogue with the Leonards and
to working together so that the real ind can once
be a place where residents and visitors alike gather in
a vibrant, welcome setting.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
I don't know. I don't think it'll ever reopen. I
think that anybody who went there just be lucky you
had the memories of going there. I think it is
done all right. The four 'h five still remains only
one lane open, one lane open southbound, and your trek
through there is probably an hour, maybe an hour and
(08:27):
a half backing up on the one oh one all
the way to Havenhurst near Balboa on the four or
five southbound closer to Burbank, and it's a mess trying
to get through there. It's going to add another hour,
hour and a half to your commute, So try to
find an alternate. There's not a lot of choices. The
canyons are backed up. You just got have to sit
through this one. You know, LA throws a lot at you,
(08:49):
and this is one of those cases bad timing, bad accident,
and now you're stuck paying the price. That's what LA
is all about, right, Just as much inconven unions as possible.
All right, rely on CAF forty. I AM six forty
is Conway Show. The four or five southbound is still
a mess near Getty in the Supulvita Pass. So if
(09:11):
you're taking that route, just be aware it's going to
take you a long time to get through that. And
it's no real alternative. Everything's jammed. However, we will be
on the air, so we'll be with you in the car.
We're sitting right there next to you. You know you're pissed.
We're not, but you are.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
And I get that. I get it.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
On Friday, we had an accident in the family, a
car accident, and so a guy who I've met over
the last three or four months help me out. He
owns some car dealerships out in Hemmett. I think it's Ford,
(09:55):
Hyundai and Chevrolet.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
I believe.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Tim Moran, you may know him. He has huge car
dealerships out there in Hennet. So he was kind enough to,
you know, look at the car and give me his
opinion how it should be fixed and everything. To drop
it off there and see if you know insurance is
paying for it. And he said, you know, his collision
(10:23):
guy's really good and I believe him very honest dude.
So I drove from Burbank to Hennett, which is ninety
two miles, and we left at around four o'clock from Burbank,
and we got to Hemmett at about seven thirty. And
(10:44):
if you did the quick math, you're right it was
about three and a half hours to go ninety two miles.
And if you think about if you did the also
again with the math, it's about thirty miles an hour,
a little less than thirty miles an hour for three hours,
(11:08):
but it was worth it. I like to get out
and see that part of the world. I like him itt.
I like the wide open space there. Reminds me of
the valley when I was growing up in the seventies.
Big streets, big open spaces.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
I enjoyed it. I like it. And you're going to take.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Three hours anyway, so you just you know, eat the
time and listen to podcasts or radio, and nobody seems
to be in a hurry out there, which I.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Like as well.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
So but on the way back, we stopped at a
local casino there for a couple hours, my wife and
I and on the way back it took about an
hour and ten minutes to get home, hour and fifteen
minutes to get home, which is frustrating to go somewhere
where it takes you three and a half hours to
get there and then an hour and fifteen or an
(11:56):
hour and twenty to get home.
Speaker 7 (11:58):
You do the math.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Yeah, they're flying on the way home.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
We were moving, and.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
I don't like if the speed limits sixty five, I
like to keep I don't like to keep it much
over seventy five. I think that's when you get into
trouble at the cops. But if I keep it around seventy
three seventy four, I think I'm okay with that.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
And if you're.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Driving seventy four miles an hour on any of those freeways,
the fifteen, the sixty, the ninety one, the two ten,
people are flying by you, you're like you're standing still.
And not today though, on that four or five Any
update angel on when this freeway is going to open up.
Have they given you a different time or we're still
looking at eight o'clock.
Speaker 7 (12:39):
You know, I just checked in with the Highway Patrol
and it's just the same thing. No new language has
been sent out. They're just saying all lanes unknown duration that,
but it is the carpooling that's open. It's the main
line lanes that remained shut down.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
Okay, so there's one lane open.
Speaker 7 (12:55):
Yes, it's only the carpooling that's opens.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
The carpooling. Ah right, all right, all right, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Spirit Airlines one of the favorite airlines that people living
in southern California.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
People love Spirit Airlines. So it's cheap.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
You can get there, you know, get where you're going,
not spend a lot of money. If you don't want
anything on the flight. You can't bring your bag, you
can't bring food, you can't bring your wallet, you can't
bring anything. You got to show up nude on Spirit Airlines.
And then in that case it's inexpensive. But they're stopping
flights and that's not a good sign for an airline
(13:27):
when they're starting to reduce cities that they operate in.
Speaker 11 (13:30):
Spirit Airlines announcing their departure from the Bay Area on Wednesday,
coming ABC seven News in a statement, as a part
of our efforts to transform our business and position Spirit
for long term success, we are adjusting our network to
focus on our strongest performing markets. Well, the airline is
stopping routes from San Jose Airport too. It's Oakland Airport
that is likely to be the most impacted.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Oh no, Oakland takes another shot. Oakland had a Denny's
close because of crime, they had in and out close
because of crime. And now you've got Spirit Airlines saying no,
we're not flying there anymore.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
They got to get it together in Oakland.
Speaker 11 (14:06):
Clint Henderson is a travel et spert for The Point Sky.
He says oak has seen a steady decline in the
number of airlines serving it for the past ten years.
Speaker 12 (14:14):
These things tend to feed on themselves, and I think
a lot of the traffic has shifted to SFO. You know,
the more flights you have, the more popular you get,
the more people you get in and out of the airport.
Speaker 11 (14:26):
The airport itself, though, striking a more positive tone, telling
me Spirit represented less than three percent of our recent
seat availability and daily flights at oak All right.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
So Spirit Airlines not going in the right direction. The Powerball.
Two people won the power Ball on Saturday. Well, I
was not in any of the pools that won. I'm
in three different pools and they're all losers, total losers.
But somebody in Missouri one and somebody in Texas one.
(14:56):
And so we come back, we'll find out how much
they get. They're going to split it, but it's an
awful lot of money. We're live on Cape. And also,
thank God for the NFL. I spent all day Sunday
watching these games. I can't tell you how pleasurable that
is to turn the TV on at nine o'clock in
(15:16):
the morning, get the pregame going, get the you know
your your teams, and you can watch any team play
any other team in the NFL. It's just amazing athletes
doing amazing things and the score going up and down.
That Bills. I don't know, Krozer, I know you're a
football fan. Did you catch the Bills game last night?
(15:37):
I saw the tail edited the comeback. Oh my god,
incredible that I was. I was screaming in the house
when that thing ended. Man, it just sometimes it just
feels like the Ravens are cursed. Yeah, yeah, didn't get
over that hump man. Man, the Bills what a comeback.
I think they were down by sixteen points with you know,
like nine minutes left and won the game. It was credible,
(16:00):
incredible game. But to watch the Rams win, which was cool.
The Dodgers also won after losing five straight, and so
that anytime the Dodgers and the Rams win on a Sunday,
it makes my life much better.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
I know.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
I'm following these you know teams my whole life, and
I still get depressed when they lose, and I'm screaming
when they win.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Ah, your childlike innocence is so sweet. Yeah, I guess so.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Not recording my wife, She's like, you got to keep
it down. So whistling and the clapping and the throwing
of crap. I was acting like a child. I was
even going crazy when the Bills won. I couldn't believe that.
You know, with no seconds, with zero time on the clock,
kicking a field goal to beat Baltimore was an incredible comeback.
And to win the first game of the year is
(16:48):
a is really important. You know, you can't go undefeated
unless you win that first game. And half the teams
are out already. So NFL, I watched the ten o'clock
game and the one o'clock game that the evening game
that comes on. It's the greatest sport ever. The greatest
organization maybe in America is the National Football league.
Speaker 5 (17:09):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
We're live on KFI. You're listening to Tim Conway Junior
on demand from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
KFI AM six forty. It is the Conway Show. The
four or five is all messed up. Four or five
southbound through bulb of the pass is gonna cost you
an extra hour, maybe an hour and a half. And
it was over a collision that cost somebody their life.
So I think about that. You're gonna be delayed for
(17:43):
an hour and somebody's life is over. So you got
the better end of that. But it's still frustrating to
be on the freeways and not moving.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
I get it. I went.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
I had a three hour drive on Friday, and I
know to me, to sit there stopped on the freeway sucks.
But look at it this way. The summer is over
in southern California. The heat that we've been experiencing for
the last two weeks is going away tomorrow, and the temperature,
(18:17):
the high temperatures in the San Fernando Valley will be
eighty two tomorrow, then seventy nine on Wednesday and seventy
nine on Thursday. You'll feel that cool air going down
to fifty nine degrees at night. So these long shadows
that you're experiencing right now, if you're on the freeway
(18:37):
or on the streets of southern California, you're listening to
kfive and you know what I mean. This is fall
in southern California, the sun going down with these long
ass shadows. And you when you go to stores, if
you're a retail nut like I am, where you go
to Walmart, Low's Target Home depot, you start to see
(19:03):
the change in seasons. We don't have seasons out here.
The only way we know that time is moving on
if you go back to if you go into Target
or Walmart or Walmart and you go back to seasonal
and you see the change there, then you know that
Halloween is around the corner. The pumpkins are out, the
(19:26):
school supplies are going away, so that's over. The costumes
are out for Halloween. The pumpkin spice is on everything now,
from Cheerio's, gott Almighty. Everything has pumpkin spice now everything.
And my wife bought one of those pumpkin spice like
(19:47):
short brooms that you can get at the grocery store,
and it smells like pumpkin spice, which is awesome.
Speaker 2 (19:53):
The broom.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Yeah, it looks like an old fashioned broom belly, you
know I'm talking. Yeah, it's scented. Yeah, it's scented. And
I and we have that in our house. I bought.
This is the story of my life. I was at
home depot last night and I saw pumpkins for sale
and I needed to get I went to home Depot
(20:16):
to get a filter for the air conditioner. You know
the air filter. You're usually like twenty five inches by
twenty inches. You stick it and it keeps your system clean.
So I go to home Depot and I see pumpkins, beautiful,
brand new pumpkins for sale eight dollars each. I've got
(20:36):
that kind of money. I threw two beautiful ones in
the cart. Then I look at filters, and filters are
expensive there, so I said, I'm gonna wait and go
to Walmart tonight with my wife. This is last night
to buy the filters because she had to pick up
some things at Walmart. So I get home, we go
to Walmart. I see the exact same pumpkins that they
(21:00):
offered at home depot, not for eight dollars. For four
dollars and fifty cents. Could have saved some money there.
Then I go back to filters, and the filters were
more expensive there than they were at Home Depot. So
I bought more expensive filters at Walmart and more expensive
pumpkins at home Depot, and I spent instead of the
(21:23):
other way around, I spent more at each place.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
And that's the story of my life.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
I buy something and then two days later I see
it on sale for half price at another store.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
It's always been that way.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
When we drive to Oregon, I'll stop and get fast food,
and then a mile after we're done eating this crappy food,
I see brand new steakhouse open free steaks for everybody,
you know, something like that. But I love the pumpkin
spice in the air. I know Bellio is a big
pumpkin fan, my wife as well. I think that's sort
of a gender thing. I don't hear a lot of
(21:57):
guys talking about the introduct of pumpkin and everything, but
just the vibe in the markets where they're you know,
they're setting up for fall. You're getting the fall colors
in the fall smells, and we're we've left summer and
it's great because we've avoided a tremendous heat wave so far,
so far over the summer. You know, we've had summers
(22:21):
where we've had three or four days in row where
it's one hundred and fifteen degrees and that didn't happen
this summer, which was terrific.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
It still could still happen.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
But these long shadows in southern California are the welcoming
of a new season. And if you've got kids, you
know what I'm talking about. They're back in school, they're
getting ready for Halloween. Maybe you decorated the house for Halloween,
and it's a sense of moving on and coming into
a season that a lot of people enjoy. They love Halloween,
(22:55):
they love Thanksgiving, they love Christmas and Hanukkah.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Those are the major holidays that are.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Coming our way. And you can see it and smell
it in the air and you can feel it.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
And so.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Just think about that, that that we're getting closer to Halloween.
I was a big Halloween fan growing up. I probably
dressed up way too late in life. I remember I
was fifteen and I was going out with my buddies.
We're going to meet at Winchell's Donuts and Encino. We're
all going to meet there with our you know, pillow
(23:32):
cases and go try to get you know, halloween candy
around the block. And when I was fifteen, I was
going to dress up like a woman for Halloween. That
was going to be my costume, right, and you know,
bart stuffed my mom. We were about the same size,
and that was going to be it. Little makeup, hair
(23:52):
done bo. So my dad drives me to Winchell's. I
was only fourteen or fifteen. I look inside Winchells. I
see all my friends. I see Matt McDaniel, Mike Tennessee,
Todd Crouch, Billy Ray, Scott Bloom, Robbie Fox, Mark Ash.
I see all those guys and they're all in Winchles.
None of them have costumes on. They all have jeans
(24:17):
with plaid shirts on.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
They get the pillowcases.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
At least they're ready to go. They had the pillow case. Yep,
I had the pillow case. They're ready to go. I'm like, Dad,
you got to drive me home real quick. I got
to change out of this and then you got to
drive me back. He goes, ah, christ all right, So
he drives me home. Takes me five minutes to change.
I get back to Winchles. I walk into Winchles with
a plaid shirt on, you know, a flannel shirt, my jeans,
(24:40):
and my buddy Mac go's here.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Are you wearing eyeliner? Uh?
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yeah, but it's a longer story. It looks like you
have an eyeliner on and rouge or something.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
You have lipstick?
Speaker 11 (24:55):
Gun?
Speaker 2 (24:55):
What's going on with you, buddy?
Speaker 1 (24:58):
But I love this time of year, you know, especially
again when you have kids. They love this time of
year when it gets darker sooner and they know Halloweens
around the quarner and then Thanksgiving and then Christmas. It's
a great time of year. So I know you're stuck
in traffic. It sucks on the four or five by
it's only an hour delay. You didn't get killed on
(25:19):
the freeway. Somebody did, so you gotta remember that. And
we're starting a new season. So think about all the
fun you're gonna have with the kids going out to
trigger treating, Thanksgivings around the corner and Christmas. Try to
keep those in mind and put it in perspective. You
didn't die, You're gonna be an hour late, and there's
a big difference, all right. Relyve on KFIM six forty
(25:41):
KFI AM six forties Conway Show. If if you live
in where's this Torrents and you didn't get your mail,
it may have been destroyed intentionally. The United States Post
Office has confirmed that thousands of pieces of mail were
intentionally destroyed after a main post office right there in Torrance, California,
(26:02):
was contaminated with asbestos. So it's the latest development in
an ongoing situation at the facility. In July, the city
began relocating retail and PO boxes due to potential asbestos exposure,
and while testing found no asbesis in the air ducts
or customer areas, further inspection revealed that all remaining property
(26:27):
inside the building, including mail and packages, had.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
To be destroyed. How about that?
Speaker 1 (26:34):
So the USPS told KTLA and KFI here approximately four
thousand pieces of mail were destroyed. So that's great. Now,
if you have insurance, your insurance might pay for it.
If you don't have insurance, contact the Torrents Post Office
for all uninsured claims. Another thing to worry about, another
(26:56):
thing to make calls gets down there, take some time
off and deal with that. So a lot of fun
living in California. We throw a lot at you Sea
Crane Sea Crane greatest radios in the world. Go get
yourself a sea crane radio. You're gonna need it if
there's a power outage emergency and you can't rely on

million dollars home today or about eight hundred and ninety
three million dollars over the next thirty years.
Speaker 10 (29:43):
