They said rain—yet it felt like beach weather. Where is it? Alex Stone joined us with the latest example of A.I. taking over entertainment: the top Country Digital Song Sales track is now “Walk My Walk” by “Breaking Rust,” an A.I.–generated singer. The song already has more than 3 million streams in under a month and is beating real human artists on the Billboard charts. It’s one of at least six A.I. songs to chart recently, sparking controversy in the country music world—some angry, others curious whether listeners even care who or what made the music.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KMF I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
We got rain coming in, although it doesn't feel like it.
It was supposed to rain all day to day and
we didn't get a single drop in Burbank. And not
only that, but it's hot outside. There's like a warm
it feels like Florida outside. It's hot, it's humid, and
it's just I hope we didn't overseell or under sell,
(00:31):
whatever the case is. Hope we didn't misguide people here.
I mean, maybe the rain is coming, but God almighty,
this this feels horrible out right now.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
It's hot human. I can't do anything with my hair on.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
The day, like ugi, Yeah, it just go frizz on
your Yeah, it just.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Gets all frowsy.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
And you know, I yeah, you never use that term
frowzy frowsy.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Yeah, cancl wait a minute? Maybe it maybe my family
did make up that word.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
That's possible because we used to tease my brother the
d frowsy hair.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
I wonder if that's a word, how would you spell that?
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Ifrwsy frowsy, frowsy, frowsy about.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
I don't know where we got that word there be dirty, untidy,
slovenly in appearance. Okay, well okay it scruffy, a neglected
in appearance.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Yeah, oh yeah, we nailed it.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah, absolutely nailed it. All right, we got we got
a lot going on today. You're gonna need to keep
it on this station to give you the rain reports.
I know, I know it's not here.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
They said, I'm not trying to blame everybody but me,
but they did say it was coming and it ain't here. Right,
So here's what this leads me to sort of get
in trouble here. If they if on Tuesday they can't
predict Thursday's weather, how the f are they predicting fifty
(01:58):
years from now? You know, the guys and gals that
are predicting a total collapse of the jet stream on
the East coast of America in five to eight hundred years,
How are they forecasting that If they tell us on
Tuesday it's going to be raining all day Thursday and
(02:18):
there's not a drop. Now, maybe we got lucky or
unlucky wherever you look at the weather.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But Crozier, did you get any no, none, no zero?
Speaker 4 (02:29):
You know, we talked yesterday about how earlier in the
week they said it was going to start overnight Wednesday
into Thursday, and then it became a little bit more
morning Thursday, and then yesterday we were saying how they've
already moved it into the afternoon. Yes by the time
I got in today they had said four pm. So
I guess, and it shouldn't look like it's going to
take it in. I'm seeing the sun right behind you
(02:51):
through the glass.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
I'm going to the window to look.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
But yeah, four o'clock now, they were saying that was
sort of their timeframe. And I don't know if it's
hitting anywhere else, but we're not getting any reports. I
certainly didn't see any at home.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
From where I'm standing right here, I can see Glendale
and there's a clouds over Glendale.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
There's clouds over the mountains. There's a few clouds.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
To the west, but there's nothing overhead. I mean, if
I were to go out today and just walk around,
i'd use sunscreen sunscream today. Remember when your mom and
dad said, oh, when it's cloudy out, that's when you
get the most burned. Oh yeah, right, and then you're like,
what really, wait, when there's no sun, I get burned.
It turns out there, right, you know, that's when you
(03:30):
get to ace by the sun. Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I thought it was always the bigger It was just
because it's deceptive and you just just think it isn't
and so you're more reckless with your body and how
you protect yourself.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
That might be it.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
But you know, the worst is when you're out in
the ocean or near the ocean, or on a boat
or something, because then you get all the sun coming
off the water and from you know, the sun itself
using it.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Zapp, Yeah, absolutely, Zapp.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
But I do remember, you know, my sister and her
friends going to you know, a friend's pool and hanging
out and putting baby oil on themselves, you know, to
try to get tanner. I don't think that's recommended anymore.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Lemon juice in the hair.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Lemon juice in the hair, right, And also remember the
big solar screen you'd put in front of you to
reflect the sun into your face, folding right, Yeah, the
folding mirror. Let me concentrate the sun's power onto me, right.
And then you end up with a doctor and the
doctor's like, hey, how this happen?
Speaker 5 (04:26):
Well?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I put on baby oil. My whole life with a
folding mirror. Okay, all right, well you've got some problems,
you've got some problems. All right, let's talk about the
heaviest rain when we're gonna get it. If we're going
to get it, I don't know. All right, let's talk
to Alex Stone here. He's the best.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Alex.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I didn't mean to delay there, but I couldn't hear it.
I couldn't hear that. I couldn't hear the phone. So
music history being made. Top country song is AI generated?
Is that possible?
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It is? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Right now.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
By the way, the National Weather Service just put out
a tweet an x A moment ago. Now they're saying
Friday night into Saturday, it's going to be in Sanday. Okay,
that is actually what they're saying. Stay home Friday night
and all day. Yeah, they say flooding and mudslides and everything.
They now claim it's going to be heavier than originally
thought Friday night.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
So we'll see you.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
You've had some experience working in other cities. Have your
worked in Chicago?
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Not?
Speaker 5 (05:24):
I haven't lived there, but I've done storms are yet Okay?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
If they did this report in Chicago, like stay home
because it's going to rain.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
The guy everybody be fired on TV.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
That's why Kimmel loves to do the bits. So they show,
you know, all of our local reporters out there going
look at this, and then they find a puddle that
they step it yet but anyway, the AI.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
So, the the most downloaded country song right now in
America on the Billboard Contry Digital Song Sales Chart, which
is the Billboard chart now where they do downloads, is
walk My Walk by an artist called Breaking Rust. And
it's not a human and it's been downloaded over three
million times in less than a month. And here let
me play for you. This is walk My Walk. Okay,
(06:04):
the number one country song right now on the on downloads.
Speaker 7 (06:11):
If you don't like.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
I'm okey, bone talking and walk. So that is not human.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
That is AI and there's no real human performing walk
My Walk. It's a I generated It's beating out actual
humans for the top spot on the Billboard chart.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Now.
Speaker 6 (06:27):
It's all the talk on social media because you got
some people going, oh, well, this is the future, and
others not really knowing how to you know that, some
who think it's creepy and weird.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
But that's what people are saying online.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
It's made by a robot. It's an AI generated song,
and I'm not sure how to feel about that.
Speaker 8 (06:44):
As a graduate of a music industry program, this is
fascinating to me.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
As an artist, this is absolutely insane to me.
Speaker 6 (06:51):
I heard today from a guy who says he makes
country music who said that song is junk and that
it's no good. Well, I don't think it matters if
it's at the top of the Billboard chart. That that's
all they care about. If they're going to make money
and they don't have to pay for a human to
do it. If the general public is loving it and
you can make money out of it, Billboard says breaking rust.
They do confirm it's AI generated, but it's there have
(07:12):
been at least six, they say, AI performers to chart
in the past six months alone.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
And this is one of the other ones. She or
it I.
Speaker 6 (07:21):
Guess is R and B and gospel music forty four
million streams and totally AI created. Yeah, so there's a
songwriter behind it. The songwriter puts it in the computer
and then the computer actually performs it and the songwriter
never has to go into a studio, pay for studio.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
Time, pay for a human.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
But yeah, you remember a few weeks ago we're talking
about Tilly Norwood, the one AI actress, and so this
is kind of on par with that. We're now country
artists and musicians in general are saying whoa, whoa, whoa.
But for companies, they don't have to deal with humans
and contracts and money and royalty and local problems all.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
What happens when they go to concert. It's just an
empty stage.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
That that's the part of it that I think real
humans have the leg out, so to speak, on where
they can actually go and make money performing in concert
and tell maybe the the.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
Whole hologram thing.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
I I don't know, that's that's the money maker of
going out and performing live is something obviously a I
can't do.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
But it wasn't it was it? Willie Navilli? What was
that chocolate? But isn't it wasn't?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Isn't that sort of like the same deception where they
didn't write those songs, they didn't sing those songs. Yeah,
so didn't they lip sync the Yeah? They lip synd right?
Yeah right? So I don't know why that's so bad.
If this is good or vice versa.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
Yeah, and then there's the school thought of, you know,
if it's entertainment and you're entertained, who cares if you
think it's real? Who cares if it's real or not?
But there's still kind of the creepy form to it
that there's not.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Actually this is awful for artists off Oh absolutely, I
mean I never thought it comes in.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
Yeah, the company can't.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
If they can just not have to pay anybody and
just pump out music like that, they can just make money.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Oh yeah, like crazy.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
And did they with this country song? Did they put
out the whole fake pictures as well?
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Yeah, there's a video to it too.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
Yeah, and I think it's it looks to AI generated
as well, but it's, you know, kind of one of
those it looks real, but there's something not quite right
about it.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
It's like the Velvet Sundown over the Summer that hit
number one on Spotify with like three consecutive albums in
like less than a month.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
That was all AI.
Speaker 5 (09:30):
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Well, look, AI is going to replace everybody.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I heard I put in five minutes of audio into
a computer and then gave it a topic, you know,
like album sales are up, and it did five minutes
of my voice talking about album sales that are up,
and I couldn't My wife couldn't tell the difference.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
I can't tell the difference right now. I know you're
AI right now.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
It's actually absolutely you can. They don't do make the
songs as well as there with Walk My Walk, but
they're pretty good where they're just consumer apps. Now that
you can go in and say, make me a country
song and make it about this, and boom, it'll give
you kind of a rudimentary country song.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Yeah, there was who is the guy that flips off
the piano and he does that rolling flip Benson Boat Yeah,
Benson Boone put in his voice and a couple of
topics and that AI wrote a song in about four
minutes that he loved and then he I think he's
going to record it.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Wow, I think he flips it off with his hand.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
I was like, why does he flip off the pout?
Speaker 5 (10:30):
Just move? Yeah, you did it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Look, we're still in the infant stages of AI and
it's already come this far and.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
It's moving quickly.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Like we talked about before that only a couple of
years ago, you would look at a crowd that say
I generated, and everybody had like these melted off looking
face right, like eighteen fingers.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
And it doesn't do that anymore.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And now when I look at commercials on YouTube or TikTok,
I can't tell which ones are fake. Like it was
one for all these celebrities were doing an ad for
a a new gardening company. I'm like, wow, how did
they get all these celebrities to do these ads for
a local gardening company?
Speaker 3 (11:07):
But it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
It was Ai and it looked exactly and sounded exactly
like the celebrities they got, you know, a season desist.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
But while it is up there, I couldn't tell.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
Yeah, and the voiceovers all sound like amazing voiceovers. Is
no longer a local commercial voiceover?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Right? For guys that do impressions, that's over too, I think.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Yeah, you know, because it made it. They just will
do an exact impression, right, stick it into a machine.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Oh it's unreal funny. I appreciate you coming, dome ding
enjoy the Reinde. Thanks man, Brain reports from you tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
Huh, that's right, good luck.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Thanks man.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
All right, there he goes Alex Stone. Everybody ding dong
with that guy. What a chase this afternoon. This guy
I followed on TV went from downtown LA all the
way to the four or five all the way to
Van Eyes, like.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
In forty minutes.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
You know, on a Thursday, on a crowded Thursday, that
guy should be driving Uber. That he would be the
number one Uber driver and you can get your ass
home in ten minutes. But instead he went criminal. And
now he's locked up. His pants are down around his ankle.
He was running with skids on her flip flops or
you know, slides, running away from the cops. Like the
(12:14):
cops couldn't catch that guy. I love the guy running.
You know, the guy running away from cops is exactly
like in a Superman movie where a guy shoots Superman
six times and it doesn't kill him, and then and
then the suspect or the robber, the bad guy throws
the gun at Superman.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Superman ducts.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Yeah, like that that'll get him.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
The six bullets that deflected off his chest didn't hurt him,
but throwing the gun at him might put his eye out.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
All right, we're live.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
We'll keep lying on. I don't know. Maybe rain KFIM
six four.
Speaker 9 (12:44):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
All Right, the rain is coming. I'm not kidding it is.
It's on its way. It's not here yet. It was
supposed to be here today it's not, but it's on
its way, and you've got to be careful if you're
in a burned scar area because that could wipe you
and your family out.
Speaker 10 (13:08):
We have some rain coming in.
Speaker 11 (13:09):
We've been talking a lot about it over the course
of the last several days and a lot of people
trying to plan what to do, what to cancel, what to.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
Keep, and again, this is going to be a.
Speaker 11 (13:17):
Pretty messy type of a situation for us Friday into
your Saturday liveming get to Offler seven thousand. We do
have some rain as we're getting outwards a rounde and
it's not a lot going on there, but if you're
heading to the north, heading into areas of northern California,
rain has been going and it's going hard in these
areas San Jose as well, the Central Coast as well,
and we're waiting for some of that to transfer south
into southern California now this rain.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Right so northern California. You know the reason Mammoth said
they're not opening because they're going to get too much snow,
and then they did a live shot from Mammoth today.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
There's snow in the.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Upper elevations but not in the lower elevations, so they're
going to delay opening I think for another week.
Speaker 11 (13:54):
Is moving into our area by the time we're heading
into late tonight, but really tomorrow morning for the morning
dry we are looking at a cold front that's going
to settle right into southern California, especially Ventura. It looks
like areas of northern Los Angeles County for the early
morning drive and so I think that's gonna be quite
a mess. And then that's going to get a little
bit more intense as we're heading into the afternoon hours.
Speaker 10 (14:15):
We also have snow out of this system.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
So they're asking everyone to stay home tomorrow. How about
that it's gonna be raining, so you got to stay home.
I saw that today on TV. You know, if it's
not necessary feed to drive, please stay home.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Why is that it's drizzling.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It's gonna be drizzling, maybe some heavy rain, but just
stay home.
Speaker 10 (14:35):
We also have snow out of this system.
Speaker 11 (14:37):
This cold front's going to produce some snow in this
year in Nevada. So for anybody that's been waiting for
the ski season to open.
Speaker 10 (14:42):
Up, you're going to have it all.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I think Big Bear is going to get some snow too,
and Big Bear Lake Arrowhead, arrow Bear Arrowhead, all those
arrows up there, one.
Speaker 11 (14:51):
Of three footers out towards areas of Mammoth. A'll wave
to Tahoe, So it will be nice to get some
snowfall going for the ski season that's approaching.
Speaker 10 (14:57):
And then we're heading out towards sixty one.
Speaker 11 (14:58):
Degrees into Oxnard over in a Los Angeles and sixty
one degrees in a fuller ten. So let's talk about
the system and how it's being broken up.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Yeah, Big Bear is great, and Big Bear A lot
of great memories of Big Bear going up there.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
As kids. My uncle used to drive us up there.
So there was his three kids, us six.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
There were nine kids in the station wagon and he
smoked with the windows up all the way there and
all the way back, and he also had a bottle
underneath the seat and would take occasional hit off whatever
he was drinking in the bottle, different time, different time,
a little dangerous, you know, going up the mountain buzz
(15:38):
with nine kids in the car and only four seatbelts.
That was an adventure, right that could have ended wildly.
It didn't, but it could have certainly could have. But people,
I know two people that have cabins. Nil Savager is
one of them. And I got a friend of mine
who's retired law enforcement. I don't want to say his name.
I don't know if his wife knows he as a
(16:00):
cabin up there. But these these guys, you know, they're
not making two million dollars a year, and they got
cabins in in Arrowhead and in Big Bear. And I
said to Belly, I can't afford a cabin in Arrowhead
or Big Bear. And she said, yeah, well those two
guys you mentioned are also not at the racetrack every Friday,
(16:21):
Saturday and Sunday. Said okay, I get that. Thanks for
bringing me down.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Thank you. All right, we're live on KFI. Rain is coming,
It is coming.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
You'll be here tomorrow and Saturday, and you'll be very
fortunate that you that you're in the know, and keep
it on KFI for updates all day long, all night
long with this crazy storm coming in back to back,
storms coming in back to back for live on KFI.
Speaker 9 (16:47):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Sorry if you we screwed up your day to day
and we said it was going to be here today,
it's not. It's gonna be the most tomorrow and Saturday.
So there you go, all right, but keep it on KFI.
If you know you're gonna need warnings, if there's issue,
if there's warnings to evacuate, or you know, mud slides
(17:16):
that are happening, you'll want to know. You'll definitely want
to know and to know, you've got to have information,
and that's what we do here at KFI. That's what
we do. The pursuit was great today. That guy's a celebrity.
He got from downtown LA. He went all the way
through Beverly Hills, through West LA, got on the four
(17:39):
or five north bound, got off it. I don't think
it was like Sherman Way or Van Oh in that
area at Burbank, and then went northbound on somepovity. You're right, yeah,
you're you're exactly right, and then they caught him up
in that van Eys area, and man, he did that
whole thing in like forty minutes. And it's just proof
that if you're really a greve, you can get home
(18:02):
lickety split, no matter what the traffic's like. But this
guy didn't get home. Cops ended up pulling him over.
He crashed his car, he could make a turn, he
got sideways on a turn, crashed his car, and then
he decided to run.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
He's running trying to put.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
His hood on with slides on and his pants coming
off his waist.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
It was great to see him. Like he goes up
to a fence or a gate, I think, and you're like, okay,
is he going to try to go through the gate
or go over the gate? And neither happened. He just
bang went right into it. He was exhausted by then.
I love the van of the minivan that started following
him for the last mile or so from Florida.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Yeah, what the heck was that ab?
Speaker 12 (18:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I don't know if the guy knew him or what happened,
but I bet he took them into custody too. I
love the guy who's, you know, like this skinny young
guy with slides his pants are coming off, he's got
a hoodie on, and he thinks he's going to outrun
these twenty five year old cops who were in great
shape with.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
The car, and he stopped in downtown, got out with
the lady that was in the car with him in
the passenger side. They got out and ran around for
like thirty seconds, and they got back in the car.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Right when they got out of the car.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
It was funny because she ran up to him and
grabbed his like sweatshirt or something, Yeah, and would not
let go.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
He's like dragging her.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
I love that you refer to her as a lady.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Benefit of the day. She was just back from finishing school.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
She had a very low cut front shirt, so it
was kind of obvious.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Yeah, she's a lady. She's a lady.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Yeah, Ding dong. Here's some audio from that pursuit. You
missed it. It went on from like two to three
three thirty.
Speaker 7 (19:39):
Here's one of the persons from that vehicle, that SUV
they had. That person attained. It's unclear whatever role they
played in it at this.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Point, but nine helicopters, fifteen cop cars. Everybody knows what's
how that's gonna end, except the guy driving, and he
thought he could get away with He had no tennis
shoes on, pants are falling, and he had a hoodie
that he was trying to conceal himself.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
He still went for it, right up to the end.
He thought it could get away.
Speaker 7 (20:09):
You can see the driver's vehicle. This is the pursuit
vehicle that was going I clocked him eighty miles an
hour there and he decided to try to make that
right hand turn. Couldn't make the turn hard on, the
brakes went up onto the sidewalk, and then they bailed
out as far as the white suv.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Though he could have killed somebody.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Yeah, you know, easily there's kids out of school, you know,
walking home in that area and easily could have killed
a kid.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Incredibly reckless driving out. Yes, shame on him. Yeah, he
does not deserve an Ada boy and his lady was
not helping him. I don't know who raised this cat.
Speaker 7 (20:42):
I don't see it. At this point that driver might
have taken off and left the passenger there that was
running after him. So there's the passenger from the suv
and then the two suspects from the pursuit vehicle are
in the alleyway here, and it looks like.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Man, the audio from these helicopters has gotten so great
over the years, it's almost like he's in studio or in.
Speaker 7 (21:02):
The alleyway here, and it looks like they still have
them out of the vehicles that are about to put
him in.
Speaker 11 (21:09):
Yeah, we didn't know how long this pursuit was going
to go, but more than an hour after following it,
that driver's luck rent out.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
You know who's great is that Chris Christie.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
He's become like the go to guy to follow when
there's chases on in the evening. You know, he's become
like that Stu Mandel of the evening. Stu split on us.
He went for the money. He took the Springs truck
and loaded up in the morning. Morning drive later and
he split. But he was the best. And now Chris Christie,
(21:39):
because the more interesting chases are at night. You may
get one a month in the morning, but you know,
guys who run from the cops, they're not morning birds,
they're night ols, And so the nighttime chases are always
the best. And Chris Christie almost even sounds a little
like Stup Mandel. You know, he gets excited and crazy
(22:00):
and that's what you want in a chase. You know
what a guy just you know, monotoning it. You want
a guy who's you know, going crazy with you. That's right, Okay,
rain is coming to Penga Boulevard is gonna be closed
to bank a canyon, and that's sad news for people
to live up.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
There also some sad news.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Jesse Jackson's been hospitalized for rain, a rare brain disorder.
And he was a big part of our show for
a long.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Time, and I really liked that dude.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
When I was we used to take part of his
show and then we played on the air and have
people guess what he's saying. And so I was in
charge of recording that on TV from his church every Saturday.
He had an organization called Rainbow Push, and I was
recording about a week after we had my daughter, just
sitting at home recording and making notes on on you know,
(22:52):
some things that I couldn't understand Jesse Jackson saying. But
I very clearly understood when he said, it's not what
you buy your kids, it's where you take them. And
I wrote that down and I lived my entire life
that way. It's not what I bought my daughter. It's
where I took her making memories.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
If you're a new mom or new dad, if I
only have one piece of advice for you, it's not
where you buy him, it's where you take them. Take
them everywhere. You're gonna have great, great memories. Take put
them in the car wherever you go home, depot, just
up to the drug store, wherever. Stick them in that car,
and man, you you'll you'll see wild great results.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Is that a dinner bell I just heard? No, it's
my bookie. I owe him. The money's going his way
this week.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Gone, hold one second, I'll meet you at Chevrone.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Okay, one in the shades. Yeah, I'm so depressing. All
I rely on KFI.
Speaker 9 (23:52):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun You're on demand from KFI
AM six forty rain.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Tomorrow Saturday will be heavy. It was supposed to be
here today, it's not. But we're keeping an eye on
up for you. So keep it on KFI. Especially tomorrow
and Saturday should be pretty heavy. There's gonna be a
new high rise in downtown Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Aeg. Who I think own the Kings?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I don't know if they own Staples Center or now
Crypto dot Com. I think they also own They're a
big company. I think they also own the Avalanche in
Colorado or the Nuggets. They're big in Colorado. And in
downtown LA. They're building a forty nine floor high rise
(24:43):
forty nine floors huge in downtown LA which I mean
a lot of jobs and a lot more places to live.
Let's find out what's going on in downtown LA. A big,
huge ass building.
Speaker 13 (24:55):
Another high rise hotel maybe coming to downtown La. The
La Times AEG has filed plans for a forty nine
story building that would contain a hotel as well as
permanent residences, bars, and restaurants. It would be built atop
a parking lot at the corner of Olympic and Georgia Street,
across from La Live. The Times reports the company doesn't
(25:17):
plan to break around anytime soon, and that this is
just a first step for future development. Okay, AEG already
owns La Live and Crypto dot Com Arena, along with
the La Kings and part of the Lakers there.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
You go, all right, a lot of money with that crew.
And that's a hot area La Live. That's a really
cool area, you know, to live around. I wouldn't wander
too far from home. No, in any direction, north, southeast
or west. You know, you get within four or five
blocks either direction, you're like, ooh, a little tight tight
(25:54):
around here.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
But it is a cool area. La Live is great.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
They shut down at the think they call that chick
Hern Boulevard or chick Hern Drive between.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Something like that. Yeah, yeah, between.
Speaker 8 (26:09):
Chick Her and Court.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Chicken and Court, Okay, that would make sense. Yeah. Were
you there when Chickenen got that street named after him?
Speaker 8 (26:15):
I believe I was. I wasn't there there, but I was.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
You were working for the Lakers.
Speaker 8 (26:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Wow? How long did you work for Lakers?
Speaker 8 (26:23):
Almost ten years?
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Is that right?
Speaker 8 (26:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
That must have been fun.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
It was. It was the best job I ever had.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Tim what Maddie's doing? Hey, but you got to when
they won championships. You were on the double deck bus
twice twice? How cool is that he was on your bus?
Do you remember Rick Fox and Robert Dory?
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Wow, that's huge.
Speaker 8 (26:50):
That's a pretty good bush.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
That's a very good bus because Rick Fox always had
great ladies.
Speaker 12 (26:57):
Around, very handsome man, very very hand Was he married
at the time, Yeah, to Vanessa Williams.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
What to like that guy.
Speaker 12 (27:05):
Very gorgeous woman, stunning. Miss America wasn't and she was
very sweet too.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Oh is she? Oh she's not Miss America anymore? Well,
let me move on. She she lost her title before
it was due. Oh is scandal? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (27:18):
Well I remember the.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Taking pictures that got released? Oh yes, yes, the first
one good reason to lose it. In my books, I
think the only reason, the only cool reason to lose
it is you, you know, a jowing your booth, took
the nudies.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 10 (27:34):
Ques.
Speaker 8 (27:34):
She went on to be very successful, so.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Singer actress, Yeah, multi talented. Does she know you by name?
No is Rick Fox.
Speaker 8 (27:44):
He might have forgotten it by now, but then he did.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Was she on the bus at the time? No?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
No, No, was Kobe Bryant? Did Kobe Brant know who
you were? Yes? That's incredible. What a brag that is.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
So when Kobe Bryant died, that's a that was a
big deal for you, very very very sad. But and
you knew the kids probably too, since they were born.
Speaker 12 (28:06):
I knew yeah, actually yeah, I was around. I'm thinking
maybe she was pregnant with Gianna. I knew Natalia was
like when she was little.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Was Shaquille Neil?
Speaker 5 (28:17):
Cool?
Speaker 4 (28:17):
Deal?
Speaker 8 (28:18):
The sweetest?
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Is that right?
Speaker 8 (28:19):
Funny?
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Yeah? Oh that's great.
Speaker 8 (28:22):
They were all very nice.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Did you Were you in the locker room when they
were changing?
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (28:27):
Sometimes the only time you went to the locker room, right.
Speaker 12 (28:30):
I'm pressed in like fifteen minutes after the game.
Speaker 8 (28:33):
So the guys, some of them go to the showers somehow.
You know, they're icing up.
Speaker 12 (28:36):
So you once you're let in there, they're in different
you know, maybe one guy's you know, sitting with a
towel over his lap, icing his ankle.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Did you ever see anything?
Speaker 4 (28:47):
I've seen a few things, if you know what I mean,
those ankles.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Did you see?
Speaker 8 (28:57):
I saw all their ankles that right.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
What's funny is they were always very respectful because there
was always a ton of media in their locker room,
But when you'd go into the opponent's locker room, they
weren't so respectful.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
No, I guess, right, yeah at all? Well were you there?
I guess you were there after.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
They made the the policy that women can go in there,
because you know, for a long time it's just male
reporters allowed. Yeah, and you know, you females were held back,
were you there when that happened.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
We're females.
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Wait, that was that?
Speaker 12 (29:28):
I think that was the whole thing that happened with
the New England Patriots with Lisa Olsen and Victor kam
That was way before.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Oh it was yeah, okay, I didn't know. Yeah, so
you didn't.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
You weren't part of the sub You just took advantage
of it, jumped right in there.
Speaker 8 (29:47):
The door was open.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Did you travel with the Lakers?
Speaker 12 (29:50):
I'm in the playoffs really, actually it was the finals too.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
So when you got married to John, he probably thought
you were loaded.
Speaker 12 (29:58):
He thought I had way more money and prestige than
I did.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Did you ever get him tickets?
Speaker 6 (30:05):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (30:06):
He had a fabulous year my last year with the Lakers, John,
Like you know, Gus, it was in the suite.
Speaker 8 (30:13):
Got to meet the players.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Really yeah, wow, man with a love that he did.
Speaker 12 (30:18):
He came to media day with me and got to
meet all his you know, like James Worthy and mad Wow.
Speaker 5 (30:24):
That's a dream come true.
Speaker 8 (30:26):
Oh yeah, he loved it.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
By the way, I got a great James Worthy story.
We come back a great James Worthy story.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
We will be worthy of it.
Speaker 10 (30:35):
Let's hear it.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I'm gonna write it down, to write the name down.
So remember, Okay, James Worthy, we come back. I got
a great James Worthy story.
Speaker 5 (30:42):
All right.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
We're live on KFI AM sick forty. That's it there,
that's the hour. Okay, good Night Conway Show.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
On demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you can always
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Hear us live on kf I am six forty four
to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand
and on the iHeartRadio app.
It's KMF I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
We got rain coming in, although it doesn't feel like it.
It was supposed to rain all day to day and
we didn't get a single drop in Burbank. And not
only that, but it's hot outside. There's like a warm
it feels like Florida outside. It's hot, it's humid, and
it's just I hope we didn't overseell or under sell,
(00:31):
whatever the case is. Hope we didn't misguide people here.
I mean, maybe the rain is coming, but God almighty,
this this feels horrible out right now.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
It's hot human. I can't do anything with my hair on.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
The day, like ugi, Yeah, it just go frizz on
your Yeah, it just.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
Gets all frowsy.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
And you know, I yeah, you never use that term
frowzy frowsy.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
Yeah, cancl wait a minute? Maybe it maybe my family
did make up that word.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
That's possible because we used to tease my brother the
d frowsy hair.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
I wonder if that's a word, how would you spell that?
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Ifrwsy frowsy, frowsy, frowsy about.
Speaker 4 (01:11):
I don't know where we got that word there be dirty, untidy,
slovenly in appearance. Okay, well okay it scruffy, a neglected
in appearance.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Yeah, oh yeah, we nailed it.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Yeah, absolutely nailed it. All right, we got we got
a lot going on today. You're gonna need to keep
it on this station to give you the rain reports.
I know, I know it's not here.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
They said, I'm not trying to blame everybody but me,
but they did say it was coming and it ain't here. Right,
So here's what this leads me to sort of get
in trouble here. If they if on Tuesday they can't
predict Thursday's weather, how the f are they predicting fifty
(01:58):
years from now? You know, the guys and gals that
are predicting a total collapse of the jet stream on
the East coast of America in five to eight hundred years,
How are they forecasting that If they tell us on
Tuesday it's going to be raining all day Thursday and
(02:18):
there's not a drop. Now, maybe we got lucky or
unlucky wherever you look at the weather.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
But Crozier, did you get any no, none, no zero?
Speaker 4 (02:29):
You know, we talked yesterday about how earlier in the
week they said it was going to start overnight Wednesday
into Thursday, and then it became a little bit more
morning Thursday, and then yesterday we were saying how they've
already moved it into the afternoon. Yes by the time
I got in today they had said four pm. So
I guess, and it shouldn't look like it's going to
take it in. I'm seeing the sun right behind you
(02:51):
through the glass.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
I'm going to the window to look.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
But yeah, four o'clock now, they were saying that was
sort of their timeframe. And I don't know if it's
hitting anywhere else, but we're not getting any reports. I
certainly didn't see any at home.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
From where I'm standing right here, I can see Glendale
and there's a clouds over Glendale.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
There's clouds over the mountains. There's a few clouds.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
To the west, but there's nothing overhead. I mean, if
I were to go out today and just walk around,
i'd use sunscreen sunscream today. Remember when your mom and
dad said, oh, when it's cloudy out, that's when you
get the most burned. Oh yeah, right, and then you're like,
what really, wait, when there's no sun, I get burned.
It turns out there, right, you know, that's when you
(03:30):
get to ace by the sun. Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
I thought it was always the bigger It was just
because it's deceptive and you just just think it isn't
and so you're more reckless with your body and how
you protect yourself.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
That might be it.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
But you know, the worst is when you're out in
the ocean or near the ocean, or on a boat
or something, because then you get all the sun coming
off the water and from you know, the sun itself
using it.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
Zapp, Yeah, absolutely, Zapp.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
But I do remember, you know, my sister and her
friends going to you know, a friend's pool and hanging
out and putting baby oil on themselves, you know, to
try to get tanner. I don't think that's recommended anymore.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Lemon juice in the hair.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Lemon juice in the hair, right, And also remember the
big solar screen you'd put in front of you to
reflect the sun into your face, folding right, Yeah, the
folding mirror. Let me concentrate the sun's power onto me, right.
And then you end up with a doctor and the
doctor's like, hey, how this happen?
Speaker 5 (04:26):
Well?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I put on baby oil. My whole life with a
folding mirror. Okay, all right, well you've got some problems,
you've got some problems. All right, let's talk about the
heaviest rain when we're gonna get it. If we're going
to get it, I don't know. All right, let's talk
to Alex Stone here. He's the best.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Alex.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
I didn't mean to delay there, but I couldn't hear it.
I couldn't hear that. I couldn't hear the phone. So
music history being made. Top country song is AI generated?
Is that possible?
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It is? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Right now.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
By the way, the National Weather Service just put out
a tweet an x A moment ago. Now they're saying
Friday night into Saturday, it's going to be in Sanday. Okay,
that is actually what they're saying. Stay home Friday night
and all day. Yeah, they say flooding and mudslides and everything.
They now claim it's going to be heavier than originally
thought Friday night.
Speaker 5 (05:19):
So we'll see you.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
You've had some experience working in other cities. Have your
worked in Chicago?
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Not?
Speaker 5 (05:24):
I haven't lived there, but I've done storms are yet Okay?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
If they did this report in Chicago, like stay home
because it's going to rain.
Speaker 3 (05:32):
The guy everybody be fired on TV.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
That's why Kimmel loves to do the bits. So they show,
you know, all of our local reporters out there going
look at this, and then they find a puddle that
they step it yet but anyway, the AI.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
So, the the most downloaded country song right now in
America on the Billboard Contry Digital Song Sales Chart, which
is the Billboard chart now where they do downloads, is
walk My Walk by an artist called Breaking Rust. And
it's not a human and it's been downloaded over three
million times in less than a month. And here let
me play for you. This is walk My Walk. Okay,
(06:04):
the number one country song right now on the on downloads.
Speaker 7 (06:11):
If you don't like.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
I'm okey, bone talking and walk. So that is not human.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
That is AI and there's no real human performing walk
My Walk. It's a I generated It's beating out actual
humans for the top spot on the Billboard chart.
Speaker 5 (06:26):
Now.
Speaker 6 (06:27):
It's all the talk on social media because you got
some people going, oh, well, this is the future, and
others not really knowing how to you know that, some
who think it's creepy and weird.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
But that's what people are saying online.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
It's made by a robot. It's an AI generated song,
and I'm not sure how to feel about that.
Speaker 8 (06:44):
As a graduate of a music industry program, this is
fascinating to me.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
As an artist, this is absolutely insane to me.
Speaker 6 (06:51):
I heard today from a guy who says he makes
country music who said that song is junk and that
it's no good. Well, I don't think it matters if
it's at the top of the Billboard chart. That that's
all they care about. If they're going to make money
and they don't have to pay for a human to
do it. If the general public is loving it and
you can make money out of it, Billboard says breaking rust.
They do confirm it's AI generated, but it's there have
(07:12):
been at least six, they say, AI performers to chart
in the past six months alone.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
And this is one of the other ones. She or
it I.
Speaker 6 (07:21):
Guess is R and B and gospel music forty four
million streams and totally AI created. Yeah, so there's a
songwriter behind it. The songwriter puts it in the computer
and then the computer actually performs it and the songwriter
never has to go into a studio, pay for studio.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
Time, pay for a human.
Speaker 6 (07:42):
But yeah, you remember a few weeks ago we're talking
about Tilly Norwood, the one AI actress, and so this
is kind of on par with that. We're now country
artists and musicians in general are saying whoa, whoa, whoa.
But for companies, they don't have to deal with humans
and contracts and money and royalty and local problems all.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
What happens when they go to concert. It's just an
empty stage.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
That that's the part of it that I think real
humans have the leg out, so to speak, on where
they can actually go and make money performing in concert
and tell maybe the the.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
Whole hologram thing.
Speaker 6 (08:14):
I I don't know, that's that's the money maker of
going out and performing live is something obviously a I
can't do.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
But it wasn't it was it? Willie Navilli? What was
that chocolate? But isn't it wasn't?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Isn't that sort of like the same deception where they
didn't write those songs, they didn't sing those songs. Yeah,
so didn't they lip sync the Yeah? They lip synd right?
Yeah right? So I don't know why that's so bad.
If this is good or vice versa.
Speaker 6 (08:41):
Yeah, and then there's the school thought of, you know,
if it's entertainment and you're entertained, who cares if you
think it's real? Who cares if it's real or not?
But there's still kind of the creepy form to it
that there's not.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Actually this is awful for artists off Oh absolutely, I
mean I never thought it comes in.
Speaker 5 (08:59):
Yeah, the company can't.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
If they can just not have to pay anybody and
just pump out music like that, they can just make money.
Speaker 5 (09:05):
Oh yeah, like crazy.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
And did they with this country song? Did they put
out the whole fake pictures as well?
Speaker 5 (09:12):
Yeah, there's a video to it too.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
Yeah, and I think it's it looks to AI generated
as well, but it's, you know, kind of one of
those it looks real, but there's something not quite right
about it.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
It's like the Velvet Sundown over the Summer that hit
number one on Spotify with like three consecutive albums in
like less than a month.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
That was all AI.
Speaker 5 (09:30):
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
Well, look, AI is going to replace everybody.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I heard I put in five minutes of audio into
a computer and then gave it a topic, you know,
like album sales are up, and it did five minutes
of my voice talking about album sales that are up,
and I couldn't My wife couldn't tell the difference.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
I can't tell the difference right now. I know you're
AI right now.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
It's actually absolutely you can. They don't do make the
songs as well as there with Walk My Walk, but
they're pretty good where they're just consumer apps. Now that
you can go in and say, make me a country
song and make it about this, and boom, it'll give
you kind of a rudimentary country song.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Yeah, there was who is the guy that flips off
the piano and he does that rolling flip Benson Boat Yeah,
Benson Boone put in his voice and a couple of
topics and that AI wrote a song in about four
minutes that he loved and then he I think he's
going to record it.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
Wow, I think he flips it off with his hand.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
I was like, why does he flip off the pout?
Speaker 5 (10:30):
Just move? Yeah, you did it.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
But I don't know.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Look, we're still in the infant stages of AI and
it's already come this far and.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
It's moving quickly.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
Like we talked about before that only a couple of
years ago, you would look at a crowd that say
I generated, and everybody had like these melted off looking
face right, like eighteen fingers.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
And it doesn't do that anymore.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
And now when I look at commercials on YouTube or TikTok,
I can't tell which ones are fake. Like it was
one for all these celebrities were doing an ad for
a a new gardening company. I'm like, wow, how did
they get all these celebrities to do these ads for
a local gardening company?
Speaker 3 (11:07):
But it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
It was Ai and it looked exactly and sounded exactly
like the celebrities they got, you know, a season desist.
Speaker 3 (11:13):
But while it is up there, I couldn't tell.
Speaker 6 (11:15):
Yeah, and the voiceovers all sound like amazing voiceovers. Is
no longer a local commercial voiceover?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Right? For guys that do impressions, that's over too, I think.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
Yeah, you know, because it made it. They just will
do an exact impression, right, stick it into a machine.
Speaker 5 (11:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
Oh it's unreal funny. I appreciate you coming, dome ding
enjoy the Reinde. Thanks man, Brain reports from you tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
Huh, that's right, good luck.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Thanks man.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
All right, there he goes Alex Stone. Everybody ding dong
with that guy. What a chase this afternoon. This guy
I followed on TV went from downtown LA all the
way to the four or five all the way to
Van Eyes, like.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
In forty minutes.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
You know, on a Thursday, on a crowded Thursday, that
guy should be driving Uber. That he would be the
number one Uber driver and you can get your ass
home in ten minutes. But instead he went criminal. And
now he's locked up. His pants are down around his ankle.
He was running with skids on her flip flops or
you know, slides, running away from the cops. Like the
(12:14):
cops couldn't catch that guy. I love the guy running.
You know, the guy running away from cops is exactly
like in a Superman movie where a guy shoots Superman
six times and it doesn't kill him, and then and
then the suspect or the robber, the bad guy throws
the gun at Superman.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
Superman ducts.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Yeah, like that that'll get him.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
The six bullets that deflected off his chest didn't hurt him,
but throwing the gun at him might put his eye out.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
All right, we're live.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
We'll keep lying on. I don't know. Maybe rain KFIM
six four.
Speaker 9 (12:44):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
All Right, the rain is coming. I'm not kidding it is.
It's on its way. It's not here yet. It was
supposed to be here today it's not, but it's on
its way, and you've got to be careful if you're
in a burned scar area because that could wipe you
and your family out.
Speaker 10 (13:08):
We have some rain coming in.
Speaker 11 (13:09):
We've been talking a lot about it over the course
of the last several days and a lot of people
trying to plan what to do, what to cancel, what to.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
Keep, and again, this is going to be a.
Speaker 11 (13:17):
Pretty messy type of a situation for us Friday into
your Saturday liveming get to Offler seven thousand. We do
have some rain as we're getting outwards a rounde and
it's not a lot going on there, but if you're
heading to the north, heading into areas of northern California,
rain has been going and it's going hard in these
areas San Jose as well, the Central Coast as well,
and we're waiting for some of that to transfer south
into southern California now this rain.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Right so northern California. You know the reason Mammoth said
they're not opening because they're going to get too much snow,
and then they did a live shot from Mammoth today.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
There's snow in the.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
Upper elevations but not in the lower elevations, so they're
going to delay opening I think for another week.
Speaker 11 (13:54):
Is moving into our area by the time we're heading
into late tonight, but really tomorrow morning for the morning
dry we are looking at a cold front that's going
to settle right into southern California, especially Ventura. It looks
like areas of northern Los Angeles County for the early
morning drive and so I think that's gonna be quite
a mess. And then that's going to get a little
bit more intense as we're heading into the afternoon hours.
Speaker 10 (14:15):
We also have snow out of this system.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
So they're asking everyone to stay home tomorrow. How about
that it's gonna be raining, so you got to stay home.
I saw that today on TV. You know, if it's
not necessary feed to drive, please stay home.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Why is that it's drizzling.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It's gonna be drizzling, maybe some heavy rain, but just
stay home.
Speaker 10 (14:35):
We also have snow out of this system.
Speaker 11 (14:37):
This cold front's going to produce some snow in this
year in Nevada. So for anybody that's been waiting for
the ski season to open.
Speaker 10 (14:42):
Up, you're going to have it all.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
I think Big Bear is going to get some snow too,
and Big Bear Lake Arrowhead, arrow Bear Arrowhead, all those
arrows up there, one.
Speaker 11 (14:51):
Of three footers out towards areas of Mammoth. A'll wave
to Tahoe, So it will be nice to get some
snowfall going for the ski season that's approaching.
Speaker 10 (14:57):
And then we're heading out towards sixty one.
Speaker 11 (14:58):
Degrees into Oxnard over in a Los Angeles and sixty
one degrees in a fuller ten. So let's talk about
the system and how it's being broken up.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Yeah, Big Bear is great, and Big Bear A lot
of great memories of Big Bear going up there.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
As kids. My uncle used to drive us up there.
So there was his three kids, us six.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
There were nine kids in the station wagon and he
smoked with the windows up all the way there and
all the way back, and he also had a bottle
underneath the seat and would take occasional hit off whatever
he was drinking in the bottle, different time, different time,
a little dangerous, you know, going up the mountain buzz
(15:38):
with nine kids in the car and only four seatbelts.
That was an adventure, right that could have ended wildly.
It didn't, but it could have certainly could have. But people,
I know two people that have cabins. Nil Savager is
one of them. And I got a friend of mine
who's retired law enforcement. I don't want to say his name.
I don't know if his wife knows he as a
(16:00):
cabin up there. But these these guys, you know, they're
not making two million dollars a year, and they got
cabins in in Arrowhead and in Big Bear. And I
said to Belly, I can't afford a cabin in Arrowhead
or Big Bear. And she said, yeah, well those two
guys you mentioned are also not at the racetrack every Friday,
(16:21):
Saturday and Sunday. Said okay, I get that. Thanks for
bringing me down.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
Thank you. All right, we're live on KFI. Rain is coming,
It is coming.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
You'll be here tomorrow and Saturday, and you'll be very
fortunate that you that you're in the know, and keep
it on KFI for updates all day long, all night
long with this crazy storm coming in back to back,
storms coming in back to back for live on KFI.
Speaker 9 (16:47):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Sorry if you we screwed up your day to day
and we said it was going to be here today,
it's not. It's gonna be the most tomorrow and Saturday.
So there you go, all right, but keep it on KFI.
If you know you're gonna need warnings, if there's issue,
if there's warnings to evacuate, or you know, mud slides
(17:16):
that are happening, you'll want to know. You'll definitely want
to know and to know, you've got to have information,
and that's what we do here at KFI. That's what
we do. The pursuit was great today. That guy's a celebrity.
He got from downtown LA. He went all the way
through Beverly Hills, through West LA, got on the four
(17:39):
or five north bound, got off it. I don't think
it was like Sherman Way or Van Oh in that
area at Burbank, and then went northbound on somepovity. You're right, yeah,
you're you're exactly right, and then they caught him up
in that van Eys area, and man, he did that
whole thing in like forty minutes. And it's just proof
that if you're really a greve, you can get home
(18:02):
lickety split, no matter what the traffic's like. But this
guy didn't get home. Cops ended up pulling him over.
He crashed his car, he could make a turn, he
got sideways on a turn, crashed his car, and then
he decided to run.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
He's running trying to put.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
His hood on with slides on and his pants coming
off his waist.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
It was great to see him. Like he goes up
to a fence or a gate, I think, and you're like, okay,
is he going to try to go through the gate
or go over the gate? And neither happened. He just
bang went right into it. He was exhausted by then.
I love the van of the minivan that started following
him for the last mile or so from Florida.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Yeah, what the heck was that ab?
Speaker 12 (18:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I don't know if the guy knew him or what happened,
but I bet he took them into custody too. I
love the guy who's, you know, like this skinny young
guy with slides his pants are coming off, he's got
a hoodie on, and he thinks he's going to outrun
these twenty five year old cops who were in great
shape with.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
The car, and he stopped in downtown, got out with
the lady that was in the car with him in
the passenger side. They got out and ran around for
like thirty seconds, and they got back in the car.
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Right when they got out of the car.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
It was funny because she ran up to him and
grabbed his like sweatshirt or something, Yeah, and would not
let go.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
He's like dragging her.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
I love that you refer to her as a lady.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Benefit of the day. She was just back from finishing school.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
She had a very low cut front shirt, so it
was kind of obvious.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Yeah, she's a lady. She's a lady.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Yeah, Ding dong. Here's some audio from that pursuit. You
missed it. It went on from like two to three
three thirty.
Speaker 7 (19:39):
Here's one of the persons from that vehicle, that SUV
they had. That person attained. It's unclear whatever role they
played in it at this.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
Point, but nine helicopters, fifteen cop cars. Everybody knows what's
how that's gonna end, except the guy driving, and he
thought he could get away with He had no tennis
shoes on, pants are falling, and he had a hoodie
that he was trying to conceal himself.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
He still went for it, right up to the end.
He thought it could get away.
Speaker 7 (20:09):
You can see the driver's vehicle. This is the pursuit
vehicle that was going I clocked him eighty miles an
hour there and he decided to try to make that
right hand turn. Couldn't make the turn hard on, the
brakes went up onto the sidewalk, and then they bailed
out as far as the white suv.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
Though he could have killed somebody.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
Yeah, you know, easily there's kids out of school, you know,
walking home in that area and easily could have killed
a kid.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Incredibly reckless driving out. Yes, shame on him. Yeah, he
does not deserve an Ada boy and his lady was
not helping him. I don't know who raised this cat.
Speaker 7 (20:42):
I don't see it. At this point that driver might
have taken off and left the passenger there that was
running after him. So there's the passenger from the suv
and then the two suspects from the pursuit vehicle are
in the alleyway here, and it looks like.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Man, the audio from these helicopters has gotten so great
over the years, it's almost like he's in studio or in.
Speaker 7 (21:02):
The alleyway here, and it looks like they still have
them out of the vehicles that are about to put
him in.
Speaker 11 (21:09):
Yeah, we didn't know how long this pursuit was going
to go, but more than an hour after following it,
that driver's luck rent out.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
You know who's great is that Chris Christie.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
He's become like the go to guy to follow when
there's chases on in the evening. You know, he's become
like that Stu Mandel of the evening. Stu split on us.
He went for the money. He took the Springs truck
and loaded up in the morning. Morning drive later and
he split. But he was the best. And now Chris Christie,
(21:39):
because the more interesting chases are at night. You may
get one a month in the morning, but you know,
guys who run from the cops, they're not morning birds,
they're night ols, And so the nighttime chases are always
the best. And Chris Christie almost even sounds a little
like Stup Mandel. You know, he gets excited and crazy
(22:00):
and that's what you want in a chase. You know
what a guy just you know, monotoning it. You want
a guy who's you know, going crazy with you. That's right, Okay,
rain is coming to Penga Boulevard is gonna be closed
to bank a canyon, and that's sad news for people
to live up.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
There also some sad news.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Jesse Jackson's been hospitalized for rain, a rare brain disorder.
And he was a big part of our show for
a long.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Time, and I really liked that dude.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
When I was we used to take part of his
show and then we played on the air and have
people guess what he's saying. And so I was in
charge of recording that on TV from his church every Saturday.
He had an organization called Rainbow Push, and I was
recording about a week after we had my daughter, just
sitting at home recording and making notes on on you know,
(22:52):
some things that I couldn't understand Jesse Jackson saying. But
I very clearly understood when he said, it's not what
you buy your kids, it's where you take them. And
I wrote that down and I lived my entire life
that way. It's not what I bought my daughter. It's
where I took her making memories.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
If you're a new mom or new dad, if I
only have one piece of advice for you, it's not
where you buy him, it's where you take them. Take
them everywhere. You're gonna have great, great memories. Take put
them in the car wherever you go home, depot, just
up to the drug store, wherever. Stick them in that car,
and man, you you'll you'll see wild great results.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Is that a dinner bell I just heard? No, it's
my bookie. I owe him. The money's going his way
this week.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Gone, hold one second, I'll meet you at Chevrone.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Okay, one in the shades. Yeah, I'm so depressing. All
I rely on KFI.
Speaker 9 (23:52):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun You're on demand from KFI
AM six forty rain.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
Tomorrow Saturday will be heavy. It was supposed to be
here today, it's not. But we're keeping an eye on
up for you. So keep it on KFI. Especially tomorrow
and Saturday should be pretty heavy. There's gonna be a
new high rise in downtown Los Angeles.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Aeg. Who I think own the Kings?
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I don't know if they own Staples Center or now
Crypto dot Com. I think they also own They're a
big company. I think they also own the Avalanche in
Colorado or the Nuggets. They're big in Colorado. And in
downtown LA. They're building a forty nine floor high rise
(24:43):
forty nine floors huge in downtown LA which I mean
a lot of jobs and a lot more places to live.
Let's find out what's going on in downtown LA. A big,
huge ass building.
Speaker 13 (24:55):
Another high rise hotel maybe coming to downtown La. The
La Times AEG has filed plans for a forty nine
story building that would contain a hotel as well as
permanent residences, bars, and restaurants. It would be built atop
a parking lot at the corner of Olympic and Georgia Street,
across from La Live. The Times reports the company doesn't
(25:17):
plan to break around anytime soon, and that this is
just a first step for future development. Okay, AEG already
owns La Live and Crypto dot Com Arena, along with
the La Kings and part of the Lakers there.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
You go, all right, a lot of money with that crew.
And that's a hot area La Live. That's a really
cool area, you know, to live around. I wouldn't wander
too far from home. No, in any direction, north, southeast
or west. You know, you get within four or five
blocks either direction, you're like, ooh, a little tight tight
(25:54):
around here.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
But it is a cool area. La Live is great.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
They shut down at the think they call that chick
Hern Boulevard or chick Hern Drive between.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Something like that. Yeah, yeah, between.
Speaker 8 (26:09):
Chick Her and Court.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Chicken and Court, Okay, that would make sense. Yeah. Were
you there when Chickenen got that street named after him?
Speaker 8 (26:15):
I believe I was. I wasn't there there, but I was.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
You were working for the Lakers.
Speaker 8 (26:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Wow? How long did you work for Lakers?
Speaker 8 (26:23):
Almost ten years?
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Is that right?
Speaker 8 (26:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
That must have been fun.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
It was. It was the best job I ever had.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Tim what Maddie's doing? Hey, but you got to when
they won championships. You were on the double deck bus
twice twice? How cool is that he was on your bus?
Do you remember Rick Fox and Robert Dory?
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Wow, that's huge.
Speaker 8 (26:50):
That's a pretty good bush.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
That's a very good bus because Rick Fox always had
great ladies.
Speaker 12 (26:57):
Around, very handsome man, very very hand Was he married
at the time, Yeah, to Vanessa Williams.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
What to like that guy.
Speaker 12 (27:05):
Very gorgeous woman, stunning. Miss America wasn't and she was
very sweet too.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
Oh is she? Oh she's not Miss America anymore? Well,
let me move on. She she lost her title before
it was due. Oh is scandal? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (27:18):
Well I remember the.
Speaker 4 (27:19):
Taking pictures that got released? Oh yes, yes, the first
one good reason to lose it. In my books, I
think the only reason, the only cool reason to lose
it is you, you know, a jowing your booth, took
the nudies.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
Yeah, that's pretty cool.
Speaker 10 (27:34):
Ques.
Speaker 8 (27:34):
She went on to be very successful, so.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Singer actress, Yeah, multi talented. Does she know you by name?
No is Rick Fox.
Speaker 8 (27:44):
He might have forgotten it by now, but then he did.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Was she on the bus at the time? No?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
No, No, was Kobe Bryant? Did Kobe Brant know who
you were? Yes? That's incredible. What a brag that is.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
So when Kobe Bryant died, that's a that was a
big deal for you, very very very sad. But and
you knew the kids probably too, since they were born.
Speaker 12 (28:06):
I knew yeah, actually yeah, I was around. I'm thinking
maybe she was pregnant with Gianna. I knew Natalia was
like when she was little.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Was Shaquille Neil?
Speaker 5 (28:17):
Cool?
Speaker 4 (28:17):
Deal?
Speaker 8 (28:18):
The sweetest?
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Is that right?
Speaker 8 (28:19):
Funny?
Speaker 3 (28:20):
Yeah? Oh that's great.
Speaker 8 (28:22):
They were all very nice.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Did you Were you in the locker room when they
were changing?
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (28:27):
Sometimes the only time you went to the locker room, right.
Speaker 12 (28:30):
I'm pressed in like fifteen minutes after the game.
Speaker 8 (28:33):
So the guys, some of them go to the showers somehow.
You know, they're icing up.
Speaker 12 (28:36):
So you once you're let in there, they're in different
you know, maybe one guy's you know, sitting with a
towel over his lap, icing his ankle.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
Did you ever see anything?
Speaker 4 (28:47):
I've seen a few things, if you know what I mean,
those ankles.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Did you see?
Speaker 8 (28:57):
I saw all their ankles that right.
Speaker 12 (29:00):
What's funny is they were always very respectful because there
was always a ton of media in their locker room,
But when you'd go into the opponent's locker room, they
weren't so respectful.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
No, I guess, right, yeah at all? Well were you there?
I guess you were there after.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
They made the the policy that women can go in there,
because you know, for a long time it's just male
reporters allowed. Yeah, and you know, you females were held back,
were you there when that happened.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
We're females.
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Wait, that was that?
Speaker 12 (29:28):
I think that was the whole thing that happened with
the New England Patriots with Lisa Olsen and Victor kam
That was way before.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Oh it was yeah, okay, I didn't know. Yeah, so
you didn't.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
You weren't part of the sub You just took advantage
of it, jumped right in there.
Speaker 8 (29:47):
The door was open.
Speaker 3 (29:48):
Did you travel with the Lakers?
Speaker 12 (29:50):
I'm in the playoffs really, actually it was the finals too.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
So when you got married to John, he probably thought
you were loaded.
Speaker 12 (29:58):
He thought I had way more money and prestige than
I did.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Did you ever get him tickets?
Speaker 6 (30:05):
Oh?
Speaker 12 (30:06):
He had a fabulous year my last year with the Lakers, John,
Like you know, Gus, it was in the suite.
Speaker 8 (30:13):
Got to meet the players.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Really yeah, wow, man with a love that he did.
Speaker 12 (30:18):
He came to media day with me and got to

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
