Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We have a
lot of major stories going on. We'll get back to
the water outage in the North Valley. That's a huge story.
But first, United Airlines there's been an update on the
(00:22):
ground stoppage, and I think why they're doing it.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I know why they're doing it.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
But they have a computer system that loads the luggage
and the people on the plane in a certain way
where they level out the weight. They can't put too
many people on one side. They can't put too much
luggage on one side, or else the plane won't be
balanced and it could potentially crash or be very difficult
to fly. That's why on these smaller airplanes they ask
(00:48):
you how much you weigh? And that happened to me
in Colorado. I was dating a girl. We have just
been going out for about two months, and we got
on one of those small planes to go from Denver
to Steamboat Springs and the flight attendant came around and
said how much do you weigh? And I said I
won sixty five And then they say how much does
(01:12):
she weigh?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
And they point to my.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Girlfriend because she was at her headphones on or something,
and I said, I'm not going to answer that. We've
been dating very short period of time, and I can't.
I don't want to go too low and end up
in the rockies, and I don't want to go too
high and end up with no relationships. So you got
to ask her that question. I'm not going to donate
(01:37):
that that information.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
And they did. They asked her and everything was fine.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
But they have to load those planes properly or else
they could crash or be very difficult to fly. And
that computer system that's in charge of that and make
sure that that happens is down.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
That's a big problem.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
I did Airlines experiencing some major disruption this evening. For
the better part of the last hour. They have had
to shut down all of their main flights. This is
a ground stoppage that is affecting all main flights between
major hubs. This does not include United Express or the
regional flights. Apparently they are experiencing a problem with their
weight and balance computer system and that has put a
(02:14):
stop a halt to all of these United jets here
at Lax and beyond all of the major hubs being
affected by this. The ripple effects will be widespread throughout
the evening. There is still no word on when they
expect that computer system to get back online, but obviously
lots of delays and cancelations already in effect here at
LAX supporting Live front are seven. I'm Chris Christie, which
(02:36):
do all right?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
So Crozier, You're right, it's the smaller aircraft. They are
unaffected because they do that verbally and they can they
can balance out the way just by eyeballing it.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
And I saw something that said that that as of
the latest check, the United Express planes were still.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Going no good.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Okay, those are the small ones, like you said, all right, yeah,
so I guess the mainline ones are you know LA
New York, Chicago, New York.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
And those big big ass seven forty seven seven triple
seven seven eighty sevens. Those have to be loaded properly
because they're putting a lot of weight on those planes
a lot. Have you seen the people getting off huge?
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Can I get the extension please?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I wonder if you can bring your bring your own
extension b YOE seat built extension. I don't know are
they allowed to I brought I'd like to guess if
you brought it on, didn't say anything, you just hooked
it up.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, and whatever it costs doesn't matter. You know, whatever
it cost lug around with you. It's ten thousand dollars.
I'm in, I'm in, I'm in life my extender. But
rather than the flight attendant walking down the aisle with it,
I wrote.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Thirty eight p. Thirty eight B Yeah, that's me. How
about a salad?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Have you?
Speaker 5 (03:47):
That's like when you're at the grocery store you buy
something embarrassing. Oh yeah, right, they got to do the
call over the intercar. That's why a lot of you know,
young kids don't buy condoms.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
That's exactly. You know, like a can you take at
a price? Check on these? Uh yeah, got the thimble size.
Speaker 6 (04:09):
It's one of those little finger ones you know they use.
It's like a finger cut, right, got almighty. That's why
guys drive the baker's field to get them. You know,
nobody knows who they are.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
Yeah, of course along listened like bottled waters.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Well, when I used to buy pedia lite, you know
I didn't want to. The stink was if I bought
it with my groceries or beer that I was drinking
the pedia Lite because I was dehydrated. But if I
threw diapers in, like oh, I must have a kid.
I used to buy the diapers and then donate the diapers,
(04:46):
or I could stop drinking.
Speaker 7 (04:47):
There.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
There's that too.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
You were afraid that they weren't gonna go. They would
just automatically assume it was for kids by just having
the pedia Lite.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I gotta put them diapers in and I don't want
any question. That's right.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
That's how drinker operates, you know, got professional drinkers. All right,
let's get back into the depressor here at LAPD. What
are they doing tonight for the Northern Valley where there's
more than nine thousand people without water?
Speaker 8 (05:11):
Thank you very much, Good afternoon.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Our purpose, Chief Daryl Gates.
Speaker 8 (05:16):
Purpose is to protect, serve, and support especially during.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Oh Jim McDonald, sorry a couple chiefs out.
Speaker 8 (05:22):
Purpose is to protect, serve, and support, especially during this
service disruption. LAPD is working closely with La DWP and
the La City Fire Department as part of the city's
coordinated response effort to ensure public safety. Throughout this effort,
we're increasing proactive patrols and affected neighborhoods during the outage period,
especially during peak hours when residents are most vulnerable. This
(05:46):
is intended to deter opportunistic crimes such as burglary or vandalism,
and as was stated earlier by a council member Lee,
we are going to take this very very seriously. So
if there is anybody who's intent on going into this
area to try and exp the situation, we'll be looking
for you and you will be prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
There you go, stay out of that area, if you
don't live up there, if no business up there, stay out.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
Our increased patrols will ensure a heightened safety. Our officers
are prepared to assist in the case of emergencies, and
we continue to monitor for signs of public safety risks.
Uniformed officers and community policing units will maintain a heightened presence,
providing reassurance and maintaining order under residential corridors or in
residential quarters well. No evacuations are currently planned. LAPD stands
(06:32):
ready to assist with emergency evacuations or shelter coordination should
that be needed. If residents experience criminal activity, any kind
of unrest or need assistance at any point, please immediately
call nine.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
To one one. That means home invasion.
Speaker 8 (06:48):
If residents experience criminal activity.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
If he said it, he lightened the load. There you
know criminal activity, right, so to water it down, it's
home invasion.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
They could kill you. That's that's what he's saying.
Speaker 8 (07:02):
If visitents experienced criminal activity, any kind of unrest or
neat assistance at any point, please immediately call nine to
one one. We're committed to working with LEDWP, the La
City Fire Department, and city leadership to keep our community safe,
informed and supported throughout this repair process.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (07:22):
Now I'll introduce LAPD Deputy Chief Herman Hurtado, who will
provide remarks in Spanish.
Speaker 7 (07:29):
All right, you have been listening to much.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
There they go, there they go.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
So it's gonna be a long night for the people
out there. It's gonna be hot, you're gonna have no water,
the fire hydrants are dry, and you're not gonna have
a sleep full night.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Sorry, it's just how LA operates. So I don't know.
I'd patrol the area and you don't get in your car.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Maybe walk around and report any suspicious activity because people
in Los Angeles will take advantage of situations like this
one hundred percent of the time.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
So it's going to happen.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Just to what degree will it happen, that's the variable.
We don't know, but we should know tonight and tomorrow,
so that water maybe on by Friday, and it might
be on by Monday. Friday, I think is the best
case scenario, and Monday another scenario.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
So I was thinking, with the the highlights that you
put on it and you talking about it, the more
press it gets, the more notice it gets.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
It would be hopefully like.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Getting like the bridge done over there by downtown when
that burned up a couple of years ago, where they
got everything done in like unbelievably record time. The more
attention that gets paid to it, the quicker it's going
to get done.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I think you're right. I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
The more people that are angry about it and say, hey, look,
this is unacceptable. You know you did this in the
middle of summer when it's hotter that the hottest it's
been all year, and uh, and we need water.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
And we live in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
We pay a lot of taxes, a lot in fees,
a lot in you know, in billing, a lot of
property tax, a lot in car registration fees, and if
you look at a property tax, you're paying a lot
of money. And you want the city to work, and
it's not working right now.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
So just you talking about it, it shows that you're
such an advocate for that.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Thank thank you makes happen.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Well, look, if if people didn't talk about they'd take
their time. I think you're right, yep, you know, and
we can't do that, can't afford it right now, So
let's get this done.
Speaker 9 (09:38):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
We have the emergency going on in the North Valley
with the water. We also have United Airlines full stop
with their main lines. That means they're big planes going
from big cities. Those have all come to a halt.
And breaking news. I just saw on Fox that there's
been a home invasion or a burglary in Malibu in
a beach front house. So it continues, it continues with
(10:08):
people breaking into high end homes and stealing all of
their crap.
Speaker 7 (10:12):
All right.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Normally we have our next guest on Dean Sharp. Normally
happen on Thursdays, but Dean, I want you to to
have you on today and I'm glad you made some time. Uh,
thank you for coming on. These people up in the
Northern Valley who have no water? What what is what
is that?
Speaker 7 (10:29):
Like?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I'm sure you you know you've worked enough in and
around houses. When the water starts up again, can the
water the new pressure that comes in break apart the
existing pipes? Does that have to flow in slowly? And
what about boiling water? I got a ton of questions
if you don't mind, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
No problem. I don't know how many answer outs I've
got for you.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
But uh, but what happens when you when you initially
turned water on the house for the first time?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
You do it very slowly?
Speaker 10 (10:54):
Yeah, you try to do it slowly because it spits
and its spurts, especially, you know, the whole point of
the water being turned off as we assume that there
was a break in the line, or if they were
doing maintenance, they turned off the water so that they
could remove sections of pipe and which lets air into
the line, and then that air has to be purged out.
It'll probably end up getting purged out through you know,
(11:16):
your kitchen sink and all of your neighbors all at
the same time, so it can be a little nasty.
And it also you know, it might cut loose some
sediment in the lines too, which means you might be
thinking after a day or two, you're like, why is
my kitchen sink now dribbling? They were supposed to fix
This probably means you should unscrew your aerator and clean
out the sediment. But apart from that, I even think
(11:39):
about not going to do it. Yeah, they're probably not
going to do any significant damage. Yeah, So anybody who's
listening in that area right now, if you find that
your stuff is running slower tomorrow than it was before,
just to open up your aerator and let some of
the little pebbles of sand and whatever that they put
in the line get out and everything will be fine.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Don't panic.
Speaker 10 (12:00):
And you've got a pressure regulator on your house, so
it's not like recharging the line is going to blow
up in any pipes or anything like. Everything should be fine.
It's just a huge inconvenience.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
You know. But I was thinking about this.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
You know, for people that haven't bought into the tankless
water heaters, they have fifty to one hundred gallons of
usable pottable, not postable, but maybe usable water in their home.
Speaker 10 (12:22):
It's pottable, it's totally postable. It's in your house. It's
I mean, it's it's water to be used.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
It is.
Speaker 10 (12:27):
Uh, you know, you've just basically come across the single
greatest explanation for why in the twenty first century anybody
would want to keep.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Their stay explanation.
Speaker 10 (12:40):
Yeah, I mean really it really comes down to well
two things. I mean, for a while, of course, it
was people were saying, listen, don't want to keep my
old water heater or just replace it with another because
those tankless are too expensive. But the price differential now
has has really narrowed very much, and the cost of
having a tanked water heater now is greater over time
(13:00):
than a tankless water heater. So tankless is the way
to go. But there are still people out there who
are like, listen, hey, when the big one hits, you know,
I'm gonna have I gonna have seventy five gallons of
water standing right here, assuming you've strapped and it doesn't
fall over on your car in the garage, right, Okay,
So assuming that you can hang on to it, Yeah, yeah,
you can have that.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
So there's a you know, I guess there's a silver
lining there, you know. And it's also important.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
We had doctor h Lucy Jones on with us during
one of our you know last year.
Speaker 10 (13:30):
He is the best, by the way. Yeah, I talked
to Lucy several times every time there's a quake. She
and I, you know, we get down at she is.
She's just the best.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I don't think anybody in LA has kept people calm
more than doctor Lucy Jones.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Nobody, nobody.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Yeah, So what she said when the big one hits,
she said two things. One is, nobody's gonna say the following, Hey,
is this the big one.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
No one's gonna say that. You'll know it. You'll know it. Yeah,
everyone will know it. Everyone will knows the in the
middle of it.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
And then the second thing is water might be turned
off completely for six months, and so you have to
have water in your basement or in your garage or
somewhere stored on your property. And if you did that,
this is a greatnity opportunity to use it.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (14:16):
Yeah, that's that's It's probably the one thing that it
seems most tedious and burdensome for people. But if you
really are thinking disaster preparedness, then water stores have got
to be it because, let's face it, you can get
by with a lot of things missing, but you know
we can't get three days without water, That's right, And
so it's it's just a critical component. And so yeah,
(14:39):
I and I agree, she's absolutely right. When the big
one hits, nobody's going to be asking that question. Got
to remember, the Richter scale is an exponential scale. So
the difference between a seven and a six that's a
thousand times different. So when when when the eight eventually
hits la, Yeah, we will all know it.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
And also, you know, my life always makes fun of
me because I have, like, you know, nine hundred gallons
of water in the garage. It takes up every space
and everything. You've got that much water. I can't tell
you how much I have. I'll take a photo of it.
I mean, I've I've bought over the years. Whenever I
go to the market, I buy distilled water. It lasts longer,
and I buy two or three gallons every time I go.
(15:19):
And I must have I'm not kidding you. I must
have close to two hundred gallons and and and it's
for exactly this when this happens, you know in burbank
or or keeping like the little tabs. You're dropping the
tabs in to keep it fresh and keep it. I've
never opened them. Yeah, they're completely unopen.
Speaker 10 (15:38):
But I but I doesn't matter, by the way, Tim,
Oh really yeah, But I'm just using it for toilets.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
You know, I have enough vodka to drink. I just
need toilet stop.
Speaker 10 (15:47):
Right, that's fine. If it's toilet water, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Can you use it?
Speaker 7 (15:51):
So?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
How how long can you keep a gallon of water
before it turns? Well? You know, it has a lot
to do with heat, time, garage. So it's one hundred thirty.
Speaker 10 (16:01):
You know, Just do do a little uh when we're
done today tonight, just do a little internet surgeons like,
you know, what do I need to do? Because there
there are tablets that you can get that you can
add to that water to keep it going for you.
I'm just saying, uh, And I don't want you to
drink in a lot of that distilled water too. It's
gonna strip all the calcium out of your bone, that's right.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Okay, But I usually most the distilled waters mostly for
the humidifiers. I'm running a hospital at my place. I
don't know if you noticed, but I know ye both
humidifier vibe. Definitely getting that vibe. I mean, I'm just
one hospital bed shy of Cedar Sinai over here in
burd Bank.
Speaker 10 (16:37):
All right, everybody when the big one hits.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
But I appreciate you coming on. I know you've got
a family event tomorrow, right, Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
We do. We're going whale watching.
Speaker 10 (16:48):
My granddaughter just turn nine years old today and we're
taking her out whale watching to this, So yeah, enjoy it, buddy.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Thanks for coming on. We'll talk to you next week.
All right, see you soon.
Speaker 9 (16:57):
Okay, you're listening to Tim Khan Junior on demand from
KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
We've got a disaster going out in the northern San
Fernando Valley. There is no water, the hydrants aren't working.
United Airlines full stop with their mainline cities. So if
you're traveling from one big city to another on a
big ass plane, you're going to be sitting your big
ass in the airport for a while because.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
The computer that.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Loads the planes properly, so the weight distribution is even.
That computer system is down. God only knows why they
have one computer system for that. Don't you think that
every airport should have their own computer system for that?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Doesn't that make sense?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
It does, but they have one main system and that's down,
and they don't want to take a chance on a
seven eighty seven being loaded improperly and it slams into
the rockies. So be patient. It's all done for your safety.
If you're on your way to the airport and you're
flying United, you may or may not be taking off.
(18:07):
If you're on a smaller jet, you might be bigger one,
probably not. And then we have a home that was
broken into a Malibu so the home invasions or that
you know. Now there's been an update on that. It
may not have been a home invasion. It may be
some kids just trying to break in and use the
(18:28):
pool or get around the house to use the beach.
And the cops are still speed wrapping with the young
men that are out there doing that. So we'll have
an update on that and another Malibu story. If you
live in Malibu, California, residents in a swath of Malibu,
we're being asked or advised Wednesday today to use only
(18:51):
boiled tap water or bottled water for drinking or cooking
due to a recent pressure dip caused by the bridge
replacement project. The boiled water notice from Los Angeles County
Waterworks District number twenty nine was issued for customers west
of Coral Canyon and Solidus Solidies Soll sol Stic Solstice
(19:19):
Canyon and with the exception of those in Trancus Canyon
and Latigo Canyon. So I have no idea where any
of that crap is. I don't know where any of
that stuff is, man, But I don't live out in
Malibu either. Meanwhile, bottle water is being distributed to affected
customers at Waterworks District headquarters at twenty three five thirty
(19:44):
three Civic Center Way. The distribution will continue till eight
pm Wednesday, then continue nine to six pm Thursday and Friday.
So you can go to twenty three five thirty three
Civic Center Way and they'll ace you with some water.
All right, lots going on here in Los Angeles. I
(20:06):
thought it was just gonna be a casual, quiet Wednesday
where everybody was just.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
You know, trying to avoid the heat.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
No, no lots going on, And in La throws a
lot at you. It just does we just do we
throw a lot at you, and today it happens to
be the water. Tomorrow will be something else. It'll be
the heat, it'll be fires, it'll be crime. We throw
a lot at you, and you've got to be prepared.
(20:35):
If you live in Los Angeles, it's it's always active,
We're always moving. And then we have, like you know,
lesser stories here, like squirrels. Don't feed the squirrels because
you could pay the price if you feed squirrels in
Santa Monica, Huntington Beach, or any area that you live.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
In Huntington Beach. Please don't feed the squirrels. That's what
the city is warning.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Beach.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Squirrels can carry parasites and diseases, including rabies and bubonic plague.
If you're caught feeding the squirrels, you could be hit
with a six hundred dollars Fine.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
And they reproduce rather quickly, so you could get bit
by one of these suckers.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
That's probably why Shannon Farrin gets mad at you for feeding.
Uh what's his name?
Speaker 7 (21:19):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Yeah, what's the name. What's the name of our squirrel? Petterson? Pete? No, No,
what's the name of the building.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah, we have a squirrel outside called Pinnacle Pete, and
you feed them.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
I feed him all the time. The only reason I
feed him so he doesn't bite me. That works, that's feed.
Speaker 11 (21:40):
I feed squirrels every single morning, and I bring out
along these little organic baby carrots to give them. Oh,
so you're the problem is well, no, no, not at
the building there, not at the pinnacle.
Speaker 7 (21:53):
I don't.
Speaker 12 (21:53):
I don't give pinnacle Pete anything.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Really.
Speaker 12 (21:55):
When I go, Yeah, when I go walk my dog
around this little lake, there's tons of squirrels everywhere, and
she loves looking at the squirrels, and so I give
them carrots so they'll sit there and eat them and
she can stare at them.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
Is that right?
Speaker 11 (22:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:08):
What a life? What a peaceful life you got? Going?
Speaker 1 (22:12):
People up in northern valley here you're gonna die because
they don't have water. And you're like, oh, which squirrels
you're you're you're like, what was the what was the
little red rob little red riding on a little red robin,
prance through the woods.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Should I feed the squirrel with my dog? Everything's so rape,
the betriots so beautiful.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Those people in the valley a squirrel?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
What we guys, you got?
Speaker 12 (22:45):
Can I give them organic carrots.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
You live in the Disney movie Organic Carrots. That's so great.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
All right, we have a male thief. I'm gonna place
real quick. Then we're gonna take a break. Male thief.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Bad news.
Speaker 7 (22:58):
It was all caught on camera, and one of those
residents is standing here with us, the man of the hour,
Tim Bremer. Now, I know you've had a very interesting
night last night. Talked us through it because we have
been watching it all morning long on camera, but we
want to hear it from your perspective.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Well, it's a neural Tuesday night for me. So okay,
let's take a break. We can back. This guy's great.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
This guy he saw a guy stealing mail, was using
one of those mail keys and stealing a s low
to mail, and he busted him and he got all
over this guy.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
So we're gonna play it. We came back.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
We'll let's have an update on the water and United
Airlines is still under a complete ground stop.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
So welcome to Los Angeles.
Speaker 9 (23:38):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty Oh.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
We have that emergency going out in the North Valley.
The water is gonna be off all night. You have
got to get yourself to Costco or Von's, Ralph's, Nelson's.
If we got a couple of bucks and get some water.
You can also bite at most hardware stores as well.
But there is no water and there's not gonna be
(24:05):
water for a while, at least till Friday, perhaps Monday.
And that means toilet showers, drinking water, water for the lawn,
water for your plants, water for your dog, fire hydrants.
Fire hydrants are dry in the Northern Valley between Soda
(24:26):
de Soda and Balboa. The foothills of the North Valley
and the one eighteen Freeway gone dry. Restaurants closed, the
schools can't open. If you have a school or daycare center,
they can't operate without water. It's a big deal. They're
(24:49):
trying to fix the problem, but it's gonna take a
long time. The problem is twenty The problem with the
valve is it's twenty four feet below the surface, so
they've got to dig down, and they can't dig down
with heavy equipment right now because there's two oil pipelines
that are traversing near that trunk line and there's also
(25:11):
a natural gas line, so they've got to call Southern California,
Southern California Gas Company, have them shut down the gas line.
They've got to find out who owns those oil pipelines
that are traversing the valley and shut those down. And
you can't shut those down in ten minutes, you know,
it takes a while. And then they've got to bring
(25:32):
in heavy equipment. They've got to dig a hole, they've
got to shore it up so nobody falls, you know,
the earth doesn't collapse around them while they're repairing the problem.
And it's a big challenge in the Northern Valley right now,
huge and everybody's out of water, especially on the hottest
weekend or the hottest couple of weekdays we've had almost
(25:53):
all year. So keep it on kfive. I'm sure we'll
have updates all night long. And then there's also creepy
people out there, people stealing stuff, like this guy who's
decided to steal some mail and he got caught in
the act of stealing mail with one of those keys
(26:15):
that had been stolen from a postman over the last
couple of months.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Well, it's a normal Tuesday night for me.
Speaker 13 (26:21):
So the we have a WhatsApp group for the chat,
so it's like a watchdog. And this guy has been
robbing mailboxes because one of our male men was.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Robbed for his mail key.
Speaker 13 (26:30):
They've made copies of them so they can go around
stealing all the mail, which is they all.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
Started disappearing from him because you live down the street, not.
Speaker 13 (26:35):
At this I live right down the street. And they
had said that this guy hit this place four times
in the past four nights.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
So I was like, all right, let's just go for
a walk.
Speaker 13 (26:43):
And it was dumb blind intervention luck where God's like,
here you go, Timmy, a present for you, the man
who's been robbing you.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
So there you go. I like that that comment and.
Speaker 13 (26:52):
Luck where God's like, here you go, Timmy, a present
for you. There you go, Here you go, Timmy, a
present for you.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I like this guy.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
We saw him on this around the corner.
Speaker 13 (27:00):
I saw him in the car and I was like,
there's no way that's him.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
There's no way. Our luck is that good.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Then he gets out and.
Speaker 13 (27:04):
Puts the exact same hat on from the from the picture.
He gets out the exact same scooter with the exact
same Duffel bag and then takes off and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
That's all that you were the same hat. You know,
he was photographed and healds one hat. That's all the
check marks.
Speaker 7 (27:20):
It's him, it's him. Wow. And so then you approached him.
Speaker 13 (27:23):
We waited for him to come back after he got
done robbing because I wanted him to have the evidence
on him, so that way if the cops did show up.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
Like, look, he's actually the mail in his back.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
There's proof right there.
Speaker 13 (27:31):
But I came out with my camera and you can
see from the picture look in his face of like
sloth from Gooney's Surprise, like H.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
And he said, don't film pretty pretty updated reference. I'll
give him that.
Speaker 13 (27:43):
Sloth from Gooney's Surprise like H. And he said, don't
film me. Came at me. I pepper sprayed him. Didn't
affect him because he's big and stupid. So I pepper
strayed him again. Didn't do anything, so I emptied it.
And then he decided to scrap with me, which ended
very badly for him.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
And that's when police tell us that he pulled a
knife on you.
Speaker 13 (28:02):
Yes, he was trying to get into the jeep to
get out, and I had him in an armar. He
then bit my hand, so then I had to gouge. Yeah,
that's where I had a glove on. He tried to
bite through the glove. I gouged him in the eye,
so you let go. And when I did that, he
lifted the center console and he used his left arm
to kind of push me back and grab the knife
and twisted. And the only way I knew it was
(28:22):
a knife was when he turned the blade. I saw
the flash wow, And I lifted my arm and he
came straight underneath and I either he stabbed me in
the back of my arm or my arm went through
the windshield.
Speaker 11 (28:31):
We don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
So this guy's a hero, this dude, this guy Timmy.
Speaker 7 (28:35):
It all happened so fast, so fast. Yeah, I mean
I have to ask. They call you, apparently the Valley
Heart Vigilante because the street is Valley Heart Drive. This
is not your first time that you have sort of
sprung into action. Why do this? Are you just fed
up with the amount of times these folks are getting robbed?
Speaker 13 (28:56):
Well, if the police don't, who's going to. I mean,
you back anything, even a wild animal, you back into
a corner, it's gonna go fair and fight its way out.
I'm sick of it. And you know, what you make
an example out of one. The rest aren't gonna come
down here. Because for a while, when they called me
the Valley Heart Vigilante, I caught a PDF file. I
don't think I can say that online and an arsonist
(29:16):
in the same day. That's when they nicknamed me the
Valley Heart Vigilante because this just is ridiculous.
Speaker 7 (29:21):
At least telling you though they do not recommend you
to jump in like the way you did.
Speaker 13 (29:24):
They legally have to tell me that where They're like, now, Timmy,
you can't go around arresting people, and I'm like, well,
then you do it.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 10 (29:32):
Sorry, the guy.
Speaker 7 (29:33):
Got away got away on the scooter last scene he did.
Speaker 13 (29:36):
And also again I'm the professional idiot, don't do this
at home. I'm the one that you know, I'm the
one that's okay getting hurt.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
But yeah, after he took.
Speaker 13 (29:43):
A guy's great beating, he decided to get on the
scooter and take.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Off, and you can you'll see him again.
Speaker 13 (29:50):
I hope not, but if he does, it'd be like
old times. Well reminists that.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Guy's great, all right.
Speaker 1 (29:55):

we'll see you in this big meeting in about three minutes.
Speaker 7 (30:22):
Tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
I'll updates all day long on the water disaster in
the North Valley. Now, stay tuned for Mokel and his
whole crew 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 forty four
to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand
(30:44):
on the iHeartRadio app.
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We have a
lot of major stories going on. We'll get back to
the water outage in the North Valley. That's a huge story.
But first, United Airlines there's been an update on the
(00:22):
ground stoppage, and I think why they're doing it.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I know why they're doing it.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
But they have a computer system that loads the luggage
and the people on the plane in a certain way
where they level out the weight. They can't put too
many people on one side. They can't put too much
luggage on one side, or else the plane won't be
balanced and it could potentially crash or be very difficult
to fly. That's why on these smaller airplanes they ask
(00:48):
you how much you weigh? And that happened to me
in Colorado. I was dating a girl. We have just
been going out for about two months, and we got
on one of those small planes to go from Denver
to Steamboat Springs and the flight attendant came around and
said how much do you weigh? And I said I
won sixty five And then they say how much does
(01:12):
she weigh?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
And they point to my.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
Girlfriend because she was at her headphones on or something,
and I said, I'm not going to answer that. We've
been dating very short period of time, and I can't.
I don't want to go too low and end up
in the rockies, and I don't want to go too
high and end up with no relationships. So you got
to ask her that question. I'm not going to donate
(01:37):
that that information.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
And they did. They asked her and everything was fine.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
But they have to load those planes properly or else
they could crash or be very difficult to fly. And
that computer system that's in charge of that and make
sure that that happens is down.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
That's a big problem.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
I did Airlines experiencing some major disruption this evening. For
the better part of the last hour. They have had
to shut down all of their main flights. This is
a ground stoppage that is affecting all main flights between
major hubs. This does not include United Express or the
regional flights. Apparently they are experiencing a problem with their
weight and balance computer system and that has put a
(02:14):
stop a halt to all of these United jets here
at Lax and beyond all of the major hubs being
affected by this. The ripple effects will be widespread throughout
the evening. There is still no word on when they
expect that computer system to get back online, but obviously
lots of delays and cancelations already in effect here at
LAX supporting Live front are seven. I'm Chris Christie, which
(02:36):
do all right?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
So Crozier, You're right, it's the smaller aircraft. They are
unaffected because they do that verbally and they can they
can balance out the way just by eyeballing it.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
And I saw something that said that that as of
the latest check, the United Express planes were still.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Going no good.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Okay, those are the small ones, like you said, all right, yeah,
so I guess the mainline ones are you know LA
New York, Chicago, New York.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
And those big big ass seven forty seven seven triple
seven seven eighty sevens. Those have to be loaded properly
because they're putting a lot of weight on those planes
a lot. Have you seen the people getting off huge?
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Can I get the extension please?
Speaker 2 (03:16):
I wonder if you can bring your bring your own
extension b YOE seat built extension. I don't know are
they allowed to I brought I'd like to guess if
you brought it on, didn't say anything, you just hooked
it up.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, and whatever it costs doesn't matter. You know, whatever
it cost lug around with you. It's ten thousand dollars.
I'm in, I'm in, I'm in life my extender. But
rather than the flight attendant walking down the aisle with it,
I wrote.
Speaker 2 (03:41):
Thirty eight p. Thirty eight B Yeah, that's me. How
about a salad?
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Have you?
Speaker 5 (03:47):
That's like when you're at the grocery store you buy
something embarrassing. Oh yeah, right, they got to do the
call over the intercar. That's why a lot of you know,
young kids don't buy condoms.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
That's exactly. You know, like a can you take at
a price? Check on these? Uh yeah, got the thimble size.
Speaker 6 (04:09):
It's one of those little finger ones you know they use.
It's like a finger cut, right, got almighty. That's why
guys drive the baker's field to get them. You know,
nobody knows who they are.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
Yeah, of course along listened like bottled waters.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Well, when I used to buy pedia lite, you know
I didn't want to. The stink was if I bought
it with my groceries or beer that I was drinking
the pedia Lite because I was dehydrated. But if I
threw diapers in, like oh, I must have a kid.
I used to buy the diapers and then donate the diapers,
(04:46):
or I could stop drinking.
Speaker 7 (04:47):
There.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
There's that too.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
You were afraid that they weren't gonna go. They would
just automatically assume it was for kids by just having
the pedia Lite.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I gotta put them diapers in and I don't want
any question. That's right.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
That's how drinker operates, you know, got professional drinkers. All right,
let's get back into the depressor here at LAPD. What
are they doing tonight for the Northern Valley where there's
more than nine thousand people without water?
Speaker 8 (05:11):
Thank you very much, Good afternoon.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Our purpose, Chief Daryl Gates.
Speaker 8 (05:16):
Purpose is to protect, serve, and support especially during.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Oh Jim McDonald, sorry a couple chiefs out.
Speaker 8 (05:22):
Purpose is to protect, serve, and support, especially during this
service disruption. LAPD is working closely with La DWP and
the La City Fire Department as part of the city's
coordinated response effort to ensure public safety. Throughout this effort,
we're increasing proactive patrols and affected neighborhoods during the outage period,
especially during peak hours when residents are most vulnerable. This
(05:46):
is intended to deter opportunistic crimes such as burglary or vandalism,
and as was stated earlier by a council member Lee,
we are going to take this very very seriously. So
if there is anybody who's intent on going into this
area to try and exp the situation, we'll be looking
for you and you will be prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
There you go, stay out of that area, if you
don't live up there, if no business up there, stay out.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
Our increased patrols will ensure a heightened safety. Our officers
are prepared to assist in the case of emergencies, and
we continue to monitor for signs of public safety risks.
Uniformed officers and community policing units will maintain a heightened presence,
providing reassurance and maintaining order under residential corridors or in
residential quarters well. No evacuations are currently planned. LAPD stands
(06:32):
ready to assist with emergency evacuations or shelter coordination should
that be needed. If residents experience criminal activity, any kind
of unrest or need assistance at any point, please immediately
call nine.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
To one one. That means home invasion.
Speaker 8 (06:48):
If residents experience criminal activity.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
If he said it, he lightened the load. There you
know criminal activity, right, so to water it down, it's
home invasion.
Speaker 2 (06:59):
They could kill you. That's that's what he's saying.
Speaker 8 (07:02):
If visitents experienced criminal activity, any kind of unrest or
neat assistance at any point, please immediately call nine to
one one. We're committed to working with LEDWP, the La
City Fire Department, and city leadership to keep our community safe,
informed and supported throughout this repair process.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Thank you.
Speaker 8 (07:22):
Now I'll introduce LAPD Deputy Chief Herman Hurtado, who will
provide remarks in Spanish.
Speaker 7 (07:29):
All right, you have been listening to much.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
There they go, there they go.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
So it's gonna be a long night for the people
out there. It's gonna be hot, you're gonna have no water,
the fire hydrants are dry, and you're not gonna have
a sleep full night.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Sorry, it's just how LA operates. So I don't know.
I'd patrol the area and you don't get in your car.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Maybe walk around and report any suspicious activity because people
in Los Angeles will take advantage of situations like this
one hundred percent of the time.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
So it's going to happen.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Just to what degree will it happen, that's the variable.
We don't know, but we should know tonight and tomorrow,
so that water maybe on by Friday, and it might
be on by Monday. Friday, I think is the best
case scenario, and Monday another scenario.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
So I was thinking, with the the highlights that you
put on it and you talking about it, the more
press it gets, the more notice it gets.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
It would be hopefully like.
Speaker 5 (08:40):
Getting like the bridge done over there by downtown when
that burned up a couple of years ago, where they
got everything done in like unbelievably record time. The more
attention that gets paid to it, the quicker it's going
to get done.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
I think you're right. I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
The more people that are angry about it and say, hey, look,
this is unacceptable. You know you did this in the
middle of summer when it's hotter that the hottest it's
been all year, and uh, and we need water.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
And we live in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
We pay a lot of taxes, a lot in fees,
a lot in you know, in billing, a lot of
property tax, a lot in car registration fees, and if
you look at a property tax, you're paying a lot
of money. And you want the city to work, and
it's not working right now.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
So just you talking about it, it shows that you're
such an advocate for that.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Thank thank you makes happen.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Well, look, if if people didn't talk about they'd take
their time. I think you're right, yep, you know, and
we can't do that, can't afford it right now, So
let's get this done.
Speaker 9 (09:38):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
We have the emergency going on in the North Valley
with the water. We also have United Airlines full stop
with their main lines. That means they're big planes going
from big cities. Those have all come to a halt.
And breaking news. I just saw on Fox that there's
been a home invasion or a burglary in Malibu in
a beach front house. So it continues, it continues with
(10:08):
people breaking into high end homes and stealing all of
their crap.
Speaker 7 (10:12):
All right.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Normally we have our next guest on Dean Sharp. Normally
happen on Thursdays, but Dean, I want you to to
have you on today and I'm glad you made some time. Uh,
thank you for coming on. These people up in the
Northern Valley who have no water? What what is what
is that?
Speaker 7 (10:29):
Like?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
I'm sure you you know you've worked enough in and
around houses. When the water starts up again, can the
water the new pressure that comes in break apart the
existing pipes? Does that have to flow in slowly? And
what about boiling water? I got a ton of questions
if you don't mind, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
No problem. I don't know how many answer outs I've
got for you.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
But uh, but what happens when you when you initially
turned water on the house for the first time?
Speaker 2 (10:52):
You do it very slowly?
Speaker 10 (10:54):
Yeah, you try to do it slowly because it spits
and its spurts, especially, you know, the whole point of
the water being turned off as we assume that there
was a break in the line, or if they were
doing maintenance, they turned off the water so that they
could remove sections of pipe and which lets air into
the line, and then that air has to be purged out.
It'll probably end up getting purged out through you know,
(11:16):
your kitchen sink and all of your neighbors all at
the same time, so it can be a little nasty.
And it also you know, it might cut loose some
sediment in the lines too, which means you might be
thinking after a day or two, you're like, why is
my kitchen sink now dribbling? They were supposed to fix
This probably means you should unscrew your aerator and clean
out the sediment. But apart from that, I even think
(11:39):
about not going to do it. Yeah, they're probably not
going to do any significant damage. Yeah, So anybody who's
listening in that area right now, if you find that
your stuff is running slower tomorrow than it was before,
just to open up your aerator and let some of
the little pebbles of sand and whatever that they put
in the line get out and everything will be fine.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
Don't panic.
Speaker 10 (12:00):
And you've got a pressure regulator on your house, so
it's not like recharging the line is going to blow
up in any pipes or anything like. Everything should be fine.
It's just a huge inconvenience.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
You know. But I was thinking about this.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
You know, for people that haven't bought into the tankless
water heaters, they have fifty to one hundred gallons of
usable pottable, not postable, but maybe usable water in their home.
Speaker 10 (12:22):
It's pottable, it's totally postable. It's in your house. It's
I mean, it's it's water to be used.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
It is.
Speaker 10 (12:27):
Uh, you know, you've just basically come across the single
greatest explanation for why in the twenty first century anybody
would want to keep.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Their stay explanation.
Speaker 10 (12:40):
Yeah, I mean really it really comes down to well
two things. I mean, for a while, of course, it
was people were saying, listen, don't want to keep my
old water heater or just replace it with another because
those tankless are too expensive. But the price differential now
has has really narrowed very much, and the cost of
having a tanked water heater now is greater over time
(13:00):
than a tankless water heater. So tankless is the way
to go. But there are still people out there who
are like, listen, hey, when the big one hits, you know,
I'm gonna have I gonna have seventy five gallons of
water standing right here, assuming you've strapped and it doesn't
fall over on your car in the garage, right, Okay,
So assuming that you can hang on to it, Yeah, yeah,
you can have that.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
So there's a you know, I guess there's a silver
lining there, you know. And it's also important.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
We had doctor h Lucy Jones on with us during
one of our you know last year.
Speaker 10 (13:30):
He is the best, by the way. Yeah, I talked
to Lucy several times every time there's a quake. She
and I, you know, we get down at she is.
She's just the best.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
I don't think anybody in LA has kept people calm
more than doctor Lucy Jones.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Nobody, nobody.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
Yeah, So what she said when the big one hits,
she said two things. One is, nobody's gonna say the following, Hey,
is this the big one.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
No one's gonna say that. You'll know it. You'll know it. Yeah,
everyone will know it. Everyone will knows the in the
middle of it.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
And then the second thing is water might be turned
off completely for six months, and so you have to
have water in your basement or in your garage or
somewhere stored on your property. And if you did that,
this is a greatnity opportunity to use it.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (14:16):
Yeah, that's that's It's probably the one thing that it
seems most tedious and burdensome for people. But if you
really are thinking disaster preparedness, then water stores have got
to be it because, let's face it, you can get
by with a lot of things missing, but you know
we can't get three days without water, That's right, And
so it's it's just a critical component. And so yeah,
(14:39):
I and I agree, she's absolutely right. When the big
one hits, nobody's going to be asking that question. Got
to remember, the Richter scale is an exponential scale. So
the difference between a seven and a six that's a
thousand times different. So when when when the eight eventually
hits la, Yeah, we will all know it.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
And also, you know, my life always makes fun of
me because I have, like, you know, nine hundred gallons
of water in the garage. It takes up every space
and everything. You've got that much water. I can't tell
you how much I have. I'll take a photo of it.
I mean, I've I've bought over the years. Whenever I
go to the market, I buy distilled water. It lasts longer,
and I buy two or three gallons every time I go.
(15:19):
And I must have I'm not kidding you. I must
have close to two hundred gallons and and and it's
for exactly this when this happens, you know in burbank
or or keeping like the little tabs. You're dropping the
tabs in to keep it fresh and keep it. I've
never opened them. Yeah, they're completely unopen.
Speaker 10 (15:38):
But I but I doesn't matter, by the way, Tim,
Oh really yeah, But I'm just using it for toilets.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
You know, I have enough vodka to drink. I just
need toilet stop.
Speaker 10 (15:47):
Right, that's fine. If it's toilet water, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Can you use it?
Speaker 7 (15:51):
So?
Speaker 2 (15:52):
How how long can you keep a gallon of water
before it turns? Well? You know, it has a lot
to do with heat, time, garage. So it's one hundred thirty.
Speaker 10 (16:01):
You know, Just do do a little uh when we're
done today tonight, just do a little internet surgeons like,
you know, what do I need to do? Because there
there are tablets that you can get that you can
add to that water to keep it going for you.
I'm just saying, uh, And I don't want you to
drink in a lot of that distilled water too. It's
gonna strip all the calcium out of your bone, that's right.
Speaker 1 (16:19):
Okay, But I usually most the distilled waters mostly for
the humidifiers. I'm running a hospital at my place. I
don't know if you noticed, but I know ye both
humidifier vibe. Definitely getting that vibe. I mean, I'm just
one hospital bed shy of Cedar Sinai over here in
burd Bank.
Speaker 10 (16:37):
All right, everybody when the big one hits.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
But I appreciate you coming on. I know you've got
a family event tomorrow, right, Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:46):
We do. We're going whale watching.
Speaker 10 (16:48):
My granddaughter just turn nine years old today and we're
taking her out whale watching to this, So yeah, enjoy it, buddy.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Thanks for coming on. We'll talk to you next week.
All right, see you soon.
Speaker 9 (16:57):
Okay, you're listening to Tim Khan Junior on demand from
KFI Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
We've got a disaster going out in the northern San
Fernando Valley. There is no water, the hydrants aren't working.
United Airlines full stop with their mainline cities. So if
you're traveling from one big city to another on a
big ass plane, you're going to be sitting your big
ass in the airport for a while because.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
The computer that.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Loads the planes properly, so the weight distribution is even.
That computer system is down. God only knows why they
have one computer system for that. Don't you think that
every airport should have their own computer system for that?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Doesn't that make sense?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
It does, but they have one main system and that's down,
and they don't want to take a chance on a
seven eighty seven being loaded improperly and it slams into
the rockies. So be patient. It's all done for your safety.
If you're on your way to the airport and you're
flying United, you may or may not be taking off.
(18:07):
If you're on a smaller jet, you might be bigger one,
probably not. And then we have a home that was
broken into a Malibu so the home invasions or that
you know. Now there's been an update on that. It
may not have been a home invasion. It may be
some kids just trying to break in and use the
(18:28):
pool or get around the house to use the beach.
And the cops are still speed wrapping with the young
men that are out there doing that. So we'll have
an update on that and another Malibu story. If you
live in Malibu, California, residents in a swath of Malibu,
we're being asked or advised Wednesday today to use only
(18:51):
boiled tap water or bottled water for drinking or cooking
due to a recent pressure dip caused by the bridge
replacement project. The boiled water notice from Los Angeles County
Waterworks District number twenty nine was issued for customers west
of Coral Canyon and Solidus Solidies Soll sol Stic Solstice
(19:19):
Canyon and with the exception of those in Trancus Canyon
and Latigo Canyon. So I have no idea where any
of that crap is. I don't know where any of
that stuff is, man, But I don't live out in
Malibu either. Meanwhile, bottle water is being distributed to affected
customers at Waterworks District headquarters at twenty three five thirty
(19:44):
three Civic Center Way. The distribution will continue till eight
pm Wednesday, then continue nine to six pm Thursday and Friday.
So you can go to twenty three five thirty three
Civic Center Way and they'll ace you with some water.
All right, lots going on here in Los Angeles. I
(20:06):
thought it was just gonna be a casual, quiet Wednesday
where everybody was just.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
You know, trying to avoid the heat.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
No, no lots going on, And in La throws a
lot at you. It just does we just do we
throw a lot at you, and today it happens to
be the water. Tomorrow will be something else. It'll be
the heat, it'll be fires, it'll be crime. We throw
a lot at you, and you've got to be prepared.
(20:35):
If you live in Los Angeles, it's it's always active,
We're always moving. And then we have, like you know,
lesser stories here, like squirrels. Don't feed the squirrels because
you could pay the price if you feed squirrels in
Santa Monica, Huntington Beach, or any area that you live.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
In Huntington Beach. Please don't feed the squirrels. That's what
the city is warning.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Beach.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Squirrels can carry parasites and diseases, including rabies and bubonic plague.
If you're caught feeding the squirrels, you could be hit
with a six hundred dollars Fine.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
And they reproduce rather quickly, so you could get bit
by one of these suckers.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
That's probably why Shannon Farrin gets mad at you for feeding.
Uh what's his name?
Speaker 7 (21:19):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Yeah, what's the name. What's the name of our squirrel? Petterson? Pete? No, No,
what's the name of the building.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Yeah, we have a squirrel outside called Pinnacle Pete, and
you feed them.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
I feed him all the time. The only reason I
feed him so he doesn't bite me. That works, that's feed.
Speaker 11 (21:40):
I feed squirrels every single morning, and I bring out
along these little organic baby carrots to give them. Oh,
so you're the problem is well, no, no, not at
the building there, not at the pinnacle.
Speaker 7 (21:53):
I don't.
Speaker 12 (21:53):
I don't give pinnacle Pete anything.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Really.
Speaker 12 (21:55):
When I go, Yeah, when I go walk my dog
around this little lake, there's tons of squirrels everywhere, and
she loves looking at the squirrels, and so I give
them carrots so they'll sit there and eat them and
she can stare at them.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
Is that right?
Speaker 11 (22:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:08):
What a life? What a peaceful life you got? Going?
Speaker 1 (22:12):
People up in northern valley here you're gonna die because
they don't have water. And you're like, oh, which squirrels
you're you're you're like, what was the what was the
little red rob little red riding on a little red robin,
prance through the woods.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Should I feed the squirrel with my dog? Everything's so rape,
the betriots so beautiful.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Those people in the valley a squirrel?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
What we guys, you got?
Speaker 12 (22:45):
Can I give them organic carrots.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
You live in the Disney movie Organic Carrots. That's so great.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
All right, we have a male thief. I'm gonna place
real quick. Then we're gonna take a break. Male thief.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Bad news.
Speaker 7 (22:58):
It was all caught on camera, and one of those
residents is standing here with us, the man of the hour,
Tim Bremer. Now, I know you've had a very interesting
night last night. Talked us through it because we have
been watching it all morning long on camera, but we
want to hear it from your perspective.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Well, it's a neural Tuesday night for me. So okay,
let's take a break. We can back. This guy's great.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
This guy he saw a guy stealing mail, was using
one of those mail keys and stealing a s low
to mail, and he busted him and he got all
over this guy.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
So we're gonna play it. We came back.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
We'll let's have an update on the water and United
Airlines is still under a complete ground stop.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
So welcome to Los Angeles.
Speaker 9 (23:38):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty Oh.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
We have that emergency going out in the North Valley.
The water is gonna be off all night. You have
got to get yourself to Costco or Von's, Ralph's, Nelson's.
If we got a couple of bucks and get some water.
You can also bite at most hardware stores as well.
But there is no water and there's not gonna be
(24:05):
water for a while, at least till Friday, perhaps Monday.
And that means toilet showers, drinking water, water for the lawn,
water for your plants, water for your dog, fire hydrants.
Fire hydrants are dry in the Northern Valley between Soda
(24:26):
de Soda and Balboa. The foothills of the North Valley
and the one eighteen Freeway gone dry. Restaurants closed, the
schools can't open. If you have a school or daycare center,
they can't operate without water. It's a big deal. They're
(24:49):
trying to fix the problem, but it's gonna take a
long time. The problem is twenty The problem with the
valve is it's twenty four feet below the surface, so
they've got to dig down, and they can't dig down
with heavy equipment right now because there's two oil pipelines
that are traversing near that trunk line and there's also
(25:11):
a natural gas line, so they've got to call Southern California,
Southern California Gas Company, have them shut down the gas line.
They've got to find out who owns those oil pipelines
that are traversing the valley and shut those down. And
you can't shut those down in ten minutes, you know,
it takes a while. And then they've got to bring
(25:32):
in heavy equipment. They've got to dig a hole, they've
got to shore it up so nobody falls, you know,
the earth doesn't collapse around them while they're repairing the problem.
And it's a big challenge in the Northern Valley right now,
huge and everybody's out of water, especially on the hottest
weekend or the hottest couple of weekdays we've had almost
(25:53):
all year. So keep it on kfive. I'm sure we'll
have updates all night long. And then there's also creepy
people out there, people stealing stuff, like this guy who's
decided to steal some mail and he got caught in
the act of stealing mail with one of those keys
(26:15):
that had been stolen from a postman over the last
couple of months.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Well, it's a normal Tuesday night for me.
Speaker 13 (26:21):
So the we have a WhatsApp group for the chat,
so it's like a watchdog. And this guy has been
robbing mailboxes because one of our male men was.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Robbed for his mail key.
Speaker 13 (26:30):
They've made copies of them so they can go around
stealing all the mail, which is they all.
Speaker 7 (26:33):
Started disappearing from him because you live down the street, not.
Speaker 13 (26:35):
At this I live right down the street. And they
had said that this guy hit this place four times
in the past four nights.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
So I was like, all right, let's just go for
a walk.
Speaker 13 (26:43):
And it was dumb blind intervention luck where God's like,
here you go, Timmy, a present for you, the man
who's been robbing you.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
So there you go. I like that that comment and.
Speaker 13 (26:52):
Luck where God's like, here you go, Timmy, a present
for you. There you go, Here you go, Timmy, a
present for you.
Speaker 2 (26:57):
I like this guy.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
We saw him on this around the corner.
Speaker 13 (27:00):
I saw him in the car and I was like,
there's no way that's him.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
There's no way. Our luck is that good.
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Then he gets out and.
Speaker 13 (27:04):
Puts the exact same hat on from the from the picture.
He gets out the exact same scooter with the exact
same Duffel bag and then takes off and I'm like.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
That's all that you were the same hat. You know,
he was photographed and healds one hat. That's all the
check marks.
Speaker 7 (27:20):
It's him, it's him. Wow. And so then you approached him.
Speaker 13 (27:23):
We waited for him to come back after he got
done robbing because I wanted him to have the evidence
on him, so that way if the cops did show up.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
Like, look, he's actually the mail in his back.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
There's proof right there.
Speaker 13 (27:31):
But I came out with my camera and you can
see from the picture look in his face of like
sloth from Gooney's Surprise, like H.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
And he said, don't film pretty pretty updated reference. I'll
give him that.
Speaker 13 (27:43):
Sloth from Gooney's Surprise like H. And he said, don't
film me. Came at me. I pepper sprayed him. Didn't
affect him because he's big and stupid. So I pepper
strayed him again. Didn't do anything, so I emptied it.
And then he decided to scrap with me, which ended
very badly for him.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
And that's when police tell us that he pulled a
knife on you.
Speaker 13 (28:02):
Yes, he was trying to get into the jeep to
get out, and I had him in an armar. He
then bit my hand, so then I had to gouge. Yeah,
that's where I had a glove on. He tried to
bite through the glove. I gouged him in the eye,
so you let go. And when I did that, he
lifted the center console and he used his left arm
to kind of push me back and grab the knife
and twisted. And the only way I knew it was
(28:22):
a knife was when he turned the blade. I saw
the flash wow, And I lifted my arm and he
came straight underneath and I either he stabbed me in
the back of my arm or my arm went through
the windshield.
Speaker 11 (28:31):
We don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
So this guy's a hero, this dude, this guy Timmy.
Speaker 7 (28:35):
It all happened so fast, so fast. Yeah, I mean
I have to ask. They call you, apparently the Valley
Heart Vigilante because the street is Valley Heart Drive. This
is not your first time that you have sort of
sprung into action. Why do this? Are you just fed
up with the amount of times these folks are getting robbed?
Speaker 13 (28:56):
Well, if the police don't, who's going to. I mean,
you back anything, even a wild animal, you back into
a corner, it's gonna go fair and fight its way out.
I'm sick of it. And you know, what you make
an example out of one. The rest aren't gonna come
down here. Because for a while, when they called me
the Valley Heart Vigilante, I caught a PDF file. I
don't think I can say that online and an arsonist
(29:16):
in the same day. That's when they nicknamed me the
Valley Heart Vigilante because this just is ridiculous.
Speaker 7 (29:21):
At least telling you though they do not recommend you
to jump in like the way you did.
Speaker 13 (29:24):
They legally have to tell me that where They're like, now, Timmy,
you can't go around arresting people, and I'm like, well,
then you do it.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 10 (29:32):
Sorry, the guy.
Speaker 7 (29:33):
Got away got away on the scooter last scene he did.
Speaker 13 (29:36):
And also again I'm the professional idiot, don't do this
at home. I'm the one that you know, I'm the
one that's okay getting hurt.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
But yeah, after he took.
Speaker 13 (29:43):
A guy's great beating, he decided to get on the
scooter and take.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Off, and you can you'll see him again.
Speaker 13 (29:50):
I hope not, but if he does, it'd be like
old times. Well reminists that.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Guy's great, all right.
