Twenty-three-year-old YouTuber Nick Shirley’s viral video investigation regarding Somali fraud in the state of Minnesota is a real juggernaut. Andy got a haircut today, and they may have been a little overzealous with the garden shears. We play talkbacks from listeners who are also angry about state fraud. A hot pursuit in Sandy Springs, Georgia! In a golf cart? We hear more listener talkbacks loving on Andy and the KTLA gang as well as love for Conan O’Brien. The happiest place on earth might also be the messiest. We’re talking drinkin’ at Disney, people! And it’s fun but very raunchy.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's camp I am sixty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
App Nice Vibes here on this day, I guess this
is day almost four of dead week, which we discovered yesterday,
is the term that we use to describe the time
between Christmas and New Year. But that doesn't mean that
there's not a lot of stuff happening, a lot of
news going on, and something that you may have seen
(00:28):
past couple of days if you've been on the internet,
is a story about the fraud or alleged fraud in
Minnesota as it relates to daycare centers. And what's wild
is that you're not really seeing this covered a lot
outside of YouTube, which is I think for most times
(00:51):
when that happens, that means that generally the story is
confined to the wackos. This one I started this afternoon
to start see some coverage here ABC, ABC News. Obviously
some of the cable nets had already picked it up.
I don't know that you're going to see a lot
of it in locals in Los Angeles because it really
(01:12):
doesn't This story at least about this YouTuber looking into
the daycare centers in Minnesota in Minneapolis doesn't necessarily impact
us here in Los Angeles, but there is some concern
that if this fraud is happening in this state, could
it be happening in California. Here's some background, including a
response now from one of those daycare centers, the latest
(01:35):
good Morning Meda Good Morning.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Attorney General Panbondi says they've been looking into these allegations
of fraud for months and they expect more prosecutions will
be coming. So far, she says, ninety eight people have
been charged, eighty five of whom are of Somali descent.
DHS officials posted footage on x yesterday showing federal agents
on the ground in Minneapolis investigating suspected cases of fraud
(01:59):
in daycare here and healthcare centers.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
So the important thing to note is the reason that
she notified, or at least in the beginning of this of
this story clarified that that a large percentage of the
people who were charged in this were people who are
of Somali descent, is because a lot of the community
in Minneapolis, which is the largest Somali community outside of
the country, was the subject of this YouTube video that
(02:23):
has now been seen hundreds of millions of times.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
It comes after an independent reporter and Nike Shirley's video
investigating federally funded childcare centers in the Twin Cities went viral.
Minnesota officials are pushing back, though, saying previous investigations into
the location's referenced in Shirley's videos did not uncover evidence
of fraud.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So what happens in the video is it appears as
if it all takes place on the same day, which
according to one of the local stations in Minneapolis, Fox
nine Minneapolis, they think that this happened on December seventeenth,
which would have been a Wednesday, And it's sometime during
the day because it's daylight, and you know, of course
(03:04):
in the winter in Minnesota, there's not a lot of
time outside of business hours that it's going to be daylight.
So Nick Shirley and another I guess you can call
hm whistleblower go around Minneapolis to these places that, according
to the state, have received money to operate childcare centers,
(03:27):
and they go looking for any evidence that they are
legitimately operating a childcare center. And in this forty five
minute video, they don't see any kids and a lot
of the reaction was, well, now, maybe they went on
a day where everything is closed, but it is very odd.
(03:49):
He tried to inquire if he could bring his kid
to the daycare center and they said absolutely not. Multiple
locations places that received millions of dollars of funding from
the state taxpayer dollars.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Where did the money go? Good question.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
One childcare business that's now under the microscope is Quality
Learning Center in Minneapolis, which misspelled learning on its sign.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
They say this.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Is the one that's viral. It's Quality Leering Center.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
In the photo, they're fixing the spelling.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
A lot of the journalism that's been going on the
last couple of days has been really dishonest. I don't
want to put anybody, but I do feel like what
was done was someone came to our building outside of
operating hours, when there's a specific sign on our door
that says our days and our hours.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
He came outside of those hours and then claiming, hey.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
They're closed and they're still making money. They're using tax
payer money to work, And it's like you don't come
outside and outside outside of operation hours and then say
they're using tax payer money.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
That's completely fawesome.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I'm just surprised to see even dozens of these places
existing at all in close proximity to one another, and
that they're all closed at the same time. It's suspicious,
it's fishy, And I understand that this guy has an agenda.
He's a YouTuber. Some are labeling CNN I think called
him a maga YouTuber.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
Yeah, but isn't that their agenda as well to label
him thusly?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Well, you could say that, but I think that regardless
of what side you are on, you don't want fraud.
Fraud should be a non ideological issue.
Speaker 8 (05:25):
I'm with you on that, regardless.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
State Republicans are slamming Governor Tim Wall, saying they've been
sounding the alarm over fraud in Minnesota's childcare space for years.
They say, for the good of the state, Governor Walls
should step aside. Minnesota needs accountability, a reset, and new
leadership that can get us back on the right track.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
It's not just.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Minnesota facing accusations of money mismanagement. A California auditor arrest
says it recently found millions in wasted dollars in state agencies.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Oh that's us here in California. So wonder what will
happen of this. I think another layer to this, which
is fascinating to me, is that this Nick Shirley guy
who did the video, and he really just seems like
a twenty two year old bro, but he's doing the thing.
He's out there trying to investigate, quite literally, knocking on
(06:15):
doors to see what's happening behind it. This has been
something that has been going on the government has known about.
They've been prosecuting fraud. There have been violations levied against
these places that are in this video for almost ten years.
And it took this kid making this video for everybody
(06:38):
to see it. The power of the Internet is wild,
by the way, for what it is worth. Going back
to Fox nine, which is that local affiliate in Minneapolis,
they went to the Quality Learning Center sometimes since the
video went viral, as they've all started to pick up
on the story as well, and they say that they
have changed the sign Quality Luring Center is now Quality
(07:01):
Learning Center, and that when they were there they saw
children and staff inside the building. Apparently this YouTuber has
come back to Minneapolis. What he's doing there apparently making
another video, But as you heard, their Department of Children,
Youth and Families Commissioner Tiki Brown, who is from Many, Minnesota,
(07:25):
rather said that all of the daycares featured in the
video had been the subject of unannounced visit in the
past six months by the state. Children were present during
those visits, and while the daycare centers had been subject
to past investigations, the state had found no evidence of fraud.
This also just seems so strange. Where there's smoke, there's fire,
(07:49):
it's a weird It's something weird is going on there.
And I hope that we will find it out, and
I hope that we have, I guess, an opportunity now
to look into more fraud in this state, because you know,
we're paying a lot of money in taxes and as
(08:12):
you heard monks talk about it earlier, our roads are
one big old pothole. Our pets heads are falling off,
lots more. There's lots more to come here on Conway,
Andy Reismire in for Tim Conway Junior.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
We've got a game to play.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
In the next couple segments, we're gonna open up the
phone lines hope to hear from you. You can also
leave a message for us in the talkback feature on
the iHeartRadio app. Look for the microphone record up to
thirty seconds and lo and behold as you hear Nicky
is back in the hot seat taking your calls.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I was driving through those potholes. Yeah, did you have
you blown? You blew a tired, didn't you?
Speaker 7 (08:54):
Don't even that was so bad?
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Is that because of a pothole?
Speaker 7 (08:58):
It was because of the rain. I tried to avoid
the bust that was veering in my lane and I
went up on the median strip and shredded my tire. Okay,
so I drove to I drove three miles on the
Naked Rim, ah Man.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Three miles on the Naked Rim. I can't wait for
the book. I know that's a great memoir title.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Amazon Amazon BESTSELLERFIM six forty Andy Resmire and for Conway

just be like the little you know with the forward
or maybe a quote. It'll be from Crozier. Who's by

Speaker 4 (09:56):
Just got it.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
His voice is just like music, you know. It's just
there's a flow to It's got a beat and you
could dance to it. Had a message last night from
a talk back a listener rather who didn't get to it,
but I wanted to play it right now.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Andy Benjamin Franklin said, once fish and visitors smell in
three days.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
That's right, That's what it was. Fish and visitors smell
in three days. Three days is a lot of days,
by the way, to have somebody staying at your house,
you know, I mean I think they are, but yeah,
this day and age a family member, Yeah, depends on
who It depends on who they are. I guess it's
a really good point. Uh that's what we're referring to
the other day. And I won't, you know, get into it.
I think that it's funny because my mom I have
(10:41):
even like a guest I have like a guest suite now,
and my mom her own bathroom, she could have her
own little kitchen, at she still doesn't want to stay
at the house.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
She still wants to get a hotel. Must be nice,
Am I right?
Speaker 8 (10:54):
What is that about?
Speaker 9 (10:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
That's fine. I'm happy to have her.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
She's being nice, like not you out.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
You know, it's wild to me because it's like, whenever
in my life did she consider my feelings before? Whenever
was was if she was inconveniencing me part of this relationship.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I love my mom the greatest, but you know, it's
your mom.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
It's not like you know, you're a kid still Forever
I go home and immediately it goes back to the
I'm still like a ten year old. I'm not out
allowed to do anything. I can't cook on the stove.
I have to be exact.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
It's exactly what it is that you're blessed to look
like a ten year old.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
I got a haircut today and I think I just
like I wanted to go out of town and really
look like I was a tourist, you know, so, And
I always tell them, don't cut it too short, and
I don't know what it is about.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
They just like they love cutting the hair short.
Speaker 8 (11:52):
You got to give them the number. That's what I
found out.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
I don't think that a number would work on this.
Speaker 8 (11:56):
On the sides.
Speaker 10 (11:57):
Pally, go just a number whatever for is six on
the sides, and kind of keep it commensurate on top,
don't go crazy.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Do you think if I said keep it commensurate on
top that they would be like, Okay, we know it.
Speaker 8 (12:08):
Do I know? You go into a barber or a hairstylist,
because that's the difference.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I went to a barber today.
Speaker 11 (12:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (12:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I used to go to a place called It's Always
Time for a Haircut. This was back in Indiana, and
it was it was. It was a place where I
watch all the barbers. Yeah, all the all the barbers
there were former inmates. It was like their work release program.
They all ended up working there. And boyl boy, did
they give you a good old haircut. It was the
(12:34):
same haircut.
Speaker 8 (12:36):
And if they didn't, you weren't telling me.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
It was a buzz cut. There was no complaints. I
think it had a one on yelp.
Speaker 8 (12:44):
Were there.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
There's absolutely no complaints. There's no coming back later. Can
you touch it up? Can you fix this? You got
the haircut that any wayward youth in a prison would get.
Either the bowl or the full on basically shaved. Well,
you got to show your tattoos, that's right.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
Like this kid looks like he's it's day one of
boot camp. He enlisted.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Have another yes exactly, and I was like, you know, man,
that was a way that was away.
Speaker 12 (13:13):
Come on, Andrew, you know why it's not covered.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
We're talking about the Minnesota daycare fraud scam, and how
I said that it hasn't been covered a lot locally.
Speaker 12 (13:20):
Yet, Minnesota fraud in southern California because Gavin Gruesome and
the leftist liberals in California run CBS, ABC and NBC
in California. He did omit KTLA and the rest of
the country and their poss And that's what's happening with
the Democratic Socialists of America. It's out of control, and
(13:42):
they don't print it, they don't talk about it. I'm
surprised Fox isn't on it even more.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
I think eventually you will see it being covered locally.
It just takes a couple of days. Once the nationals
do it, then everybody else will do it. KTLA is
really interesting and I think, you know, full disclosure, I
have only worked there, so I can't speak for CBS, NBC,
what the local news. Local newsrooms are like outside of
(14:10):
Channel five. But I think that you would be somewhat
surprised at how many different viewpoints are in the KTLA newsroom.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
I was surprised when I.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
When I first started working there, I would have assumed,
just like everybody else, it was just all a bunch
of West side liberals.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
It is not.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It is people from all sides of the aisle, and
people at different levels. And I think that there is,
at least at KTLA. I won't say always, but I
think that there is the commitment to try to be nonpartisan,
to be non ideological. I think I want to be
(14:52):
that way. You know, I don't. I don't really feel
like smart enough to come in here and tell anybody
else how to live. And that's all I have to
say about that.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
He just pulled off.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
He just pulled off.
Speaker 13 (15:07):
A suspect thought he could get away from police in
a golf cart.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
We got a hot pursuit.
Speaker 13 (15:13):
Heck yeah, but he didn't know how determine these cops
were to catch him.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Was that as necessary sentence?
Speaker 8 (15:21):
You think, Nah, Hey, get in the golf cart with me.
Speaker 13 (15:26):
Bonnie Cam from Sandy Springs. Police officers in Georgia show
the hot pursuit. They say the person they were after
had warrants out for his arrest when he saw them coming,
They say, he jumped into the nearest vehicle to get away,
which happened to be a golf cart. But there were
plenty more cards for police to get their own and
give chase. After a very brief pursuit, they caught up
(15:49):
with the suspect on the course.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
This is so great, this is the most local news.
First of all, surprise, we didn't have a helicopter over
this hot pursuit. Hot pursuit. After a very listen to
how she under sells this.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
After a very brief pursuit, they poor.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Guy, he got caught. You couldn't give let him live
in that moment, just a little bit.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
Caught up with the suspect on the course.
Speaker 9 (16:12):
They stop, stop the cart, off the cart, stop the cart,
and he did.
Speaker 14 (16:18):
Get out of the cart.
Speaker 9 (16:19):
Thank you, got out of the car.
Speaker 5 (16:21):
Ends up, the suspects surrendered and was taken into custody.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
You got to know halfway through stealing a golf cart,
going off towards the uh towards the eighth hole, you're
probably thinking, like, this isn't gonna happen. I'm not getting
a slow speed chase.
Speaker 8 (16:42):
Where in that process did that hit?
Speaker 4 (16:44):
This is not, yeah, this is not. Apparently about fifteen feet.
Speaker 13 (16:47):
The Department says it used the incident to show that golf.
Speaker 5 (16:50):
Carts make terrible get away vehicles.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Getting the golf cart with me, Oh, this is the
fastest one right here there, all the.
Speaker 5 (16:59):
Exact same been side edition digital and we're in the
golf cart with me.
Speaker 15 (17:03):
Was that the cop was a guy that they were chasing.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
That was a great question, though, That is a good question.
How you doing, By the way, Angel, nice to hear
from you.
Speaker 15 (17:10):
Hey, hey, Andy, I'm doing dandy.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
How are you very well? Thank you so much that
that's the first time he's ever heard that. Actually, not
a lot of people. Not a lot of people say
that one. That's pretty good reason. Oh geez, Louise.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
No, Angel's very unique.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
Oh okay, I like that. That's good. How the road's
moving out there?
Speaker 15 (17:29):
Hey, they're not too shabby. A little crowded here and there,
but you know, it's thinning out as the afternoon goes on.
It's not too shabby, not too shabby at all.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Hey, it's slow?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Is there still and I'm sorry if I'm going to
get somebody in trouble when I asked this question, but
is there still a moratorium on calling it slow rona?
Speaker 15 (17:49):
I throw in a slow rona every now and then,
and thanks for reminding me, because you may hear one.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
Yay? I love that didn't didn't?
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Is this a true story that it was used so
much that the city Corona called and said, please stop
saying that.
Speaker 15 (18:02):
No, Okay, I don't think so, unless you know something
I doubt.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
I don't know. Maybe that was a time story.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I know that we played the heck out of Adele Dezime,
the wickedly talented one and only Adele Dezime. I know
that that's the wicked league talented one and only Adele does.
I gotta tell you, sometimes when I sit down to
do a report, they use the same camera for me,
my close up, my single as they use for the weather.
(18:33):
So a lot of times they have to flip the
camera from the weather feed, which will just be like
the weather person's just looking at an image of themselves,
not the teleprompter. But they'll forget to flip it. So
a lot of times I'll sit down, the camera will
move around and it'll fa focus on me, and I
will not have my script in front of me, which
maybe made me like ready for.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
The radio.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
But in a lot of ways I empathize with mister
Travolta because sometimes you're just going to say adele dezim
and you're just gonna You're just gonna own it.
Speaker 8 (19:05):
That's the key.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Yeah, I think he owned it.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Yeah, I'll try to find it a little later. Coming up,
we are going to listen to some more talkbacks. We've
got lots of love here for Croje, we love that
little love for Michael Marx and uh something about Nicky's
rim is that? Is that a we can we play that?
Speaker 4 (19:24):
I checked it.
Speaker 8 (19:24):
It's sounds weird.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun you're on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I really appreciate all the people who have sent in
talkbacks said hello, we'll play a couple here on the
show in just a minute. I want to also let
you know that I do a normal show here on
KFI from two to four pm on Sunday. That's like
the regular gig that I've I've been so lucky to
be able to be given here an opportunity to just
bloviate for two hours and change every Sunday from two
(19:57):
to four, and.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
We take calls.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
We do some fun stuff, a little cap of the
news that happened last week, a little looking forward to
what's happening next week. Sometimes I'll reveal some secrets about
my coworkers at KTLA. Not here, I don't tell any
secrets about but I will say Bill Handle's breath smells fantastic.
Speaker 8 (20:20):
Still Jones and for them Zelmans I need.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I'm trying to what do I how to do to
get some Zelmans around here. I drink coffee all day long.
I got stinky rot breath. And I know Zelman's works
not only on the tongue, but also in the gut.
That's where bad breath actually lives. That's what it is.
Very good.
Speaker 7 (20:40):
Hey, what's up?
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Those phone lines are flooded.
Speaker 16 (20:41):
But in the meantime, do you Andy, do you remember
Conan O'Brien's first show?
Speaker 4 (20:47):
No one does settle in Relax.
Speaker 10 (20:49):
You're doing great?
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Oh, very kind, thank you. I sometimes I do look
at Conan O'Brien's first show. Have you ever looked at
it on YouTube? Did you really watch it live, did
you think this guy sucks?
Speaker 8 (21:00):
It was not a great first show.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
He definitely settled into his vibe. But he's always been
a genius, I think. And it's funny to watch because
you know he's taken over for Letterman. Yeah, and he
was a genuine unknown at the time. He had been
on SNL as a writer. I think he was in
the background of one episode, and so they gave him
the late show or well.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
Know it was it would have been.
Speaker 8 (21:25):
What was the wasn't it Late late night?
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Late night with Conan O'Brien Late shows on CBS. That's
what Letterman ended up getting. But they gave him the
late night show after Leno at the time, and he
the cold open, you know, which is the sketch before
the show actually starts. Is Conan waking up walking through
New York City and everyone's like, big shoes to fill
(21:48):
Buddy better, uh, better be working on your monologue? Who
are you going to be? No pressure or anything like that.
He walks all the way through Manhattan, passed the bodegas,
and everyone's saying, okay, good luck today. He gets to
his his his office at thirty Rock. It's pretty dark, actually,
(22:08):
and he goes to the office and he's real jolly
and you know, cheery and stuff like that, just cone
and just gone and being happy. Hey everybody, And I
see walks happily into his dressing room, steps on a chair,
throws it tie up over the rafters, and gets ready
to you know, choke himself, ready to kill himself, kick
the chair out from under him.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
And somebody comes in and says, hey, we need you.
You're about to go on.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
He said, ah, really, he said, yeah, right now, the
show's about to start. He said, okay, So then he
hops off. Then it goes and does his monologue and
he is truly very nervous, and you can tell.
Speaker 8 (22:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
But but good, I mean so good that guy. That
guy just a mind like a clock.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
That plays some more.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
Andy's in the Band or what's that called? And in
the reemres Andy in the Valley. Andy in the Valley
is the band and I'll play it a little bit. Anyways,
this is Mike.
Speaker 17 (22:58):
I had the audition to and for Ronner and I
just wasn't Ronner Sonor's great.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
So anyways, so you know, I love the shove.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
You're doing a great thank you. I like his voice too.
I mean, I like Ronner's voice too, but I also
like this guy's voice. He kind of has a little
this is very Orange County.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
Anyways, though, you know, I love the show.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
You're doing a great that's cool.
Speaker 8 (23:21):
I didn't know they were doing auditions for Ronner. I
would have didn't know anything about it. You know that message.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Did you hear did you hear Ronner say some incredibly
nice things about you after you left yesterday?
Speaker 8 (23:30):
No?
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Yeah, he was like, I don't want to embarrass myself
or or Kroche, but Krosh is like one of my
one of my favorite people ever.
Speaker 16 (23:39):
I was like, Wow, that is so nice. I know, Wow,
it's true, it's true. You're great, You're very good, the
best in the beds. I auditioned for the job that
Gina got, Gina grad got many years ago. I think
I was with you. You were teaching me how to opt.
This probably was before or the pandemic. This is like
(24:00):
twenty nineteen.
Speaker 8 (24:01):
God, was it that long?
Speaker 4 (24:02):
It was that long ago. That's when I think you
and I first met.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
And I remember coming in and again as a listener,
and I thought I knew I was green. I'm still green,
but I knew I was really green then and I
was waging over my head and I'm uh, you know,
she ended up getting the job. But I remember thinking,
you know, I don't think that's the end. And how
(24:25):
cool is it now, so many years later that I'm
back here and I'm working with you guys again.
Speaker 10 (24:29):
When you first started coming in, I was like, that's fantastic. Oh,
thanks our part now, no, you know what we're rectifying.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
I think things do have a way, and it worked
out because I wouldn't have been able to do both
at the time. I was gonna do KTLA full time,
and I think then try to do news anchoring in
the evening.
Speaker 8 (24:45):
I do remember that little detail being.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah, that would have been insane. I would not have lasted.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
And I think this is a much better thing because
I'm only here a couple of days a week, officially
only here one day a week, and I'm happy to
be here anytime anybody asks.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
But you know, I mean, I know what it looks Listen.
Speaker 8 (25:02):
It looks like I might call it sick tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, it looks like I do a lot of work
on TV. It doesn't look like I spend a lot
of time doing a lot of things. I understand that.
But we've got a note for Krozier. By the way,
let's listen, crows.
Speaker 12 (25:18):
Good to hear you on the news man actually taking
over for Timmy today.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
What the age? That really is great that you're on
my man.
Speaker 12 (25:27):
I can see to you my baseline neighbor next to
my city, next to your city.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Be safe, God bless America.
Speaker 12 (25:37):
Go pack, go.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
All right, awesome, it's my neighbor your it's your actual neighbor,
or just like a neighboring.
Speaker 10 (25:45):
City, he said, baseline neighbor. The baseline is right above
where I live, on the other side of the freeway.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
So there you go.
Speaker 10 (25:51):
Yeah, I don't know which direction, but it's out there.
I'm keeping an eye on it's out.
Speaker 8 (25:55):
There's a.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Monk and we smiled.
Speaker 11 (26:00):
Show.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Oh, I think that would be great.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Sure, monks in Reesemeiers sound like a like a seventies
cop duo monks respy.
Speaker 4 (26:12):
But one of them is cool. The other one just
got a haircut today.
Speaker 8 (26:18):
Buy some prison inmates.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
But that's right, it's always time for a haircut.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
You don't like it, shut up, oh boy, all right,
we will start playing our music song in the next
block where does the time go.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Isn't that crazy? It's already time to give it back
to you. That's a good feeling.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
I think when you burn up all the time, time
to be like, okay, well I can take a break
now for a second. As we go to break this
is go all night with Andy in the Valley, I'll
play like thirty seconds before I hand it back to you.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Said, let's want to be enough?
Speaker 11 (27:14):
Why are you fended another grating night? Two sounds or
fifteen years? I would join Connor the ash so.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Bad says on my dude, your best look at me?
Speaker 11 (27:34):
Taut elephant.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
Back, tis someone seen?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
That's what.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
I want to let you go? On Conway Show, any
responding for Tim Conway Jr.
Speaker 9 (27:59):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
You could say hello on the internet an Andy KTLA
on the iHeartRadio app. You can leave a talk back
and we will play it on the show. We've been
playing some of them, and we are about to open
up the phone lines for solo. The solo where I
play an isolated guitar solo from some song that you
definitely probably know, and we ask you to call in
and guess what the song is. It kind of makes
everything sound like a guitar center, you know, when you
(28:28):
walk in and some guys just wailing over in the
corner doing doing like a smoke on the water.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Dang Dang day Dang Dan Danny.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
But before we get to that, the Wall Street Journal
has a report out saying the happiest place on Earth
might be becoming the messiest place on Earth. At Honey,
it is wild. It's called drinking around the World. It's
a challenge on the Internet that people are trying to
do at Epcot. You go to all eleven countries in
the World Showcase and grab a drink at each one
and try not to punch a Disney adult. By the
(29:03):
end of it, guests, of course are going ham wrecking shop,
passing out on park benches, pukin in the bushes. One
guy actually jumped in the fountain while they were playing
the Star Spangled Banner of all things. That's a real
war on Christmas right there. Bartenders are reportedly on high alert,
(29:28):
trying to figure out if you're happy to see Mickey
or if you've just had too much tequila. In Mexico,
but apparently this has become such an issue that it's
leading now to potentially considering monitoring the guests as they
go from place to place.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Yuck. You don't want to do that, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
It's like so weird to me when people are just
like you gotta get totally trashed at Disney World.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
Maybe it's how you cope. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Got another talk back. Let's see who it's from. I
love opening these up, you know, hold on.
Speaker 17 (30:15):
So Andy, this is for you? Okay, good, I'm not
I'm not sure if the message went to the right person,
because originally said John Cobel. So Andy, this is for you.
I heard you rent your socks even though you told
him you don't be able to rent clothes for guys. Yeah,
you do rent your socks. You can always have mismatched
socks for the air. This is your friend, Marshall quote unquote.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
Here, thank you, Marshall. Marshall.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I call you my friend because you call a lot
and I would consider you a friend at this point
unless you're saying Marshall quote unquote because your name isn't
actually Marshall.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
That's what I thought.
Speaker 8 (30:51):
That's what I got from it.
Speaker 17 (30:53):
This is your friend, Marshall quote unquote, they here or
is he saying it for the following sentence quote stay
here quote unquote take care, don't so don't.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
I won't take care, thank you Marshall.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Yes, he is referring to the fact that I never
match my socks, and you can see it on TV.
I started it as like a dumb joke where I
was like, you know, it's bad luck for me not
to match myself, and now I really can't match my
socks anymore. But you save a lot of time every
day if you don't match your socks.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Do you feel a little weird? Yeah, it's a strange
feeling sometimes.
Speaker 12 (31:28):
Love it three miles on a Naked Rim conjures up
good pictures in my brain.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
My god was being filthy. Listen he did say his brain.
It is brain, that's right? Also, was it? Owen Wilson
love it three miles No, not Owen Wilson. Who's that
voice from from her?
Speaker 16 (31:49):
No?
Speaker 13 (31:50):
No?
Speaker 11 (31:50):
No?
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Almost? Whatdy? Harrelson?
Speaker 12 (31:52):
Love it three miles on a naked rim. Totally conjures
up good pictures in my brain.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
I love that. I think it. Actually that has got
to be Woody Harrels or it's a guy who sounds
just like I'd be a lucky girl if it was.
Speaker 14 (32:09):
I'll tell you about a pothole story. I was on
my way to work one day in my Tesla, just
minding my business, going around a corner, when all of
a sudden, wham, I had a pothole. Going probably fifty
miles an hour, my tire light immediately came on, pulled over,
almost drove up to work. Thank god I didn't. Long
story short. It tagoed my rim and blew my tire
(32:32):
thousand dollars later.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
Wait, what did he say?
Speaker 14 (32:35):
It tagoed my rim.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
It tacoed his rim.
Speaker 8 (32:37):
Yeah, you know, like a taco show.
Speaker 4 (32:40):
Oh man, I collapsed it. That's a really good visual storyteller.
Speaker 8 (32:43):
Very good. Yeah, apparently, and it sounds like something that
a phrase has used before.
Speaker 14 (32:47):
It tagoed my rim and blew my tire thousand dollars later.
Oh man, I was rolling again. Those potholes were no fun.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
No fun. Those Tesla rims sound very expensive.
Speaker 8 (33:00):
On a Tesla sounds expensive. It's fixed.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
You know, they're fancy cars these days. I know they're
kind of like the Ford Taurus in Los Angeles, meaning
that they're ubiquitous. They're everywhere, but especially those bigger ones.
I think they can get kind of pricey up there
for sure. Coming up in the next hour, we will
play solo the Solo, I promise we'll get to that,
(33:23):
and we will also talk about young kids, like an
old show's would you believe that gen z are watching
shows for the most part on TV. The majority of
shows that they watch came out before they were born.
This is what's called a deep tease because I realized
I've been teasing this story and I never got to
(33:43):
it on Sunday or yesterday. So brand new content coming
up real soon here on CAFI AM six forty Andy
Reesemeyer in for Conway.
Speaker 4 (33:53):
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app, So you
can always hear us live on KFI AM six forty
four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime on
demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's camp I am sixty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
App Nice Vibes here on this day, I guess this
is day almost four of dead week, which we discovered yesterday,
is the term that we use to describe the time
between Christmas and New Year. But that doesn't mean that
there's not a lot of stuff happening, a lot of
news going on, and something that you may have seen
(00:28):
past couple of days if you've been on the internet,
is a story about the fraud or alleged fraud in
Minnesota as it relates to daycare centers. And what's wild
is that you're not really seeing this covered a lot
outside of YouTube, which is I think for most times
(00:51):
when that happens, that means that generally the story is
confined to the wackos. This one I started this afternoon
to start see some coverage here ABC, ABC News. Obviously
some of the cable nets had already picked it up.
I don't know that you're going to see a lot
of it in locals in Los Angeles because it really
(01:12):
doesn't This story at least about this YouTuber looking into
the daycare centers in Minnesota in Minneapolis doesn't necessarily impact
us here in Los Angeles, but there is some concern
that if this fraud is happening in this state, could
it be happening in California. Here's some background, including a
response now from one of those daycare centers, the latest
(01:35):
good Morning Meda Good Morning.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Attorney General Panbondi says they've been looking into these allegations
of fraud for months and they expect more prosecutions will
be coming. So far, she says, ninety eight people have
been charged, eighty five of whom are of Somali descent.
DHS officials posted footage on x yesterday showing federal agents
on the ground in Minneapolis investigating suspected cases of fraud
(01:59):
in daycare here and healthcare centers.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
So the important thing to note is the reason that
she notified, or at least in the beginning of this of
this story clarified that that a large percentage of the
people who were charged in this were people who are
of Somali descent, is because a lot of the community
in Minneapolis, which is the largest Somali community outside of
the country, was the subject of this YouTube video that
(02:23):
has now been seen hundreds of millions of times.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
It comes after an independent reporter and Nike Shirley's video
investigating federally funded childcare centers in the Twin Cities went viral.
Minnesota officials are pushing back, though, saying previous investigations into
the location's referenced in Shirley's videos did not uncover evidence
of fraud.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
So what happens in the video is it appears as
if it all takes place on the same day, which
according to one of the local stations in Minneapolis, Fox
nine Minneapolis, they think that this happened on December seventeenth,
which would have been a Wednesday, And it's sometime during
the day because it's daylight, and you know, of course
(03:04):
in the winter in Minnesota, there's not a lot of
time outside of business hours that it's going to be daylight.
So Nick Shirley and another I guess you can call
hm whistleblower go around Minneapolis to these places that, according
to the state, have received money to operate childcare centers,
(03:27):
and they go looking for any evidence that they are
legitimately operating a childcare center. And in this forty five
minute video, they don't see any kids and a lot
of the reaction was, well, now, maybe they went on
a day where everything is closed, but it is very odd.
(03:49):
He tried to inquire if he could bring his kid
to the daycare center and they said absolutely not. Multiple
locations places that received millions of dollars of funding from
the state taxpayer dollars.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Where did the money go? Good question.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
One childcare business that's now under the microscope is Quality
Learning Center in Minneapolis, which misspelled learning on its sign.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
They say this.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Is the one that's viral. It's Quality Leering Center.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
In the photo, they're fixing the spelling.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
A lot of the journalism that's been going on the
last couple of days has been really dishonest. I don't
want to put anybody, but I do feel like what
was done was someone came to our building outside of
operating hours, when there's a specific sign on our door
that says our days and our hours.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
He came outside of those hours and then claiming, hey.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
They're closed and they're still making money. They're using tax
payer money to work, And it's like you don't come
outside and outside outside of operation hours and then say
they're using tax payer money.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
That's completely fawesome.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
I'm just surprised to see even dozens of these places
existing at all in close proximity to one another, and
that they're all closed at the same time. It's suspicious,
it's fishy, And I understand that this guy has an agenda.
He's a YouTuber. Some are labeling CNN I think called
him a maga YouTuber.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
Yeah, but isn't that their agenda as well to label
him thusly?
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Well, you could say that, but I think that regardless
of what side you are on, you don't want fraud.
Fraud should be a non ideological issue.
Speaker 8 (05:25):
I'm with you on that, regardless.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
State Republicans are slamming Governor Tim Wall, saying they've been
sounding the alarm over fraud in Minnesota's childcare space for years.
They say, for the good of the state, Governor Walls
should step aside. Minnesota needs accountability, a reset, and new
leadership that can get us back on the right track.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
It's not just.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Minnesota facing accusations of money mismanagement. A California auditor arrest
says it recently found millions in wasted dollars in state agencies.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
Oh that's us here in California. So wonder what will
happen of this. I think another layer to this, which
is fascinating to me, is that this Nick Shirley guy
who did the video, and he really just seems like
a twenty two year old bro, but he's doing the thing.
He's out there trying to investigate, quite literally, knocking on
(06:15):
doors to see what's happening behind it. This has been
something that has been going on the government has known about.
They've been prosecuting fraud. There have been violations levied against
these places that are in this video for almost ten years.
And it took this kid making this video for everybody
(06:38):
to see it. The power of the Internet is wild,
by the way, for what it is worth. Going back
to Fox nine, which is that local affiliate in Minneapolis,
they went to the Quality Learning Center sometimes since the
video went viral, as they've all started to pick up
on the story as well, and they say that they
have changed the sign Quality Luring Center is now Quality
(07:01):
Learning Center, and that when they were there they saw
children and staff inside the building. Apparently this YouTuber has
come back to Minneapolis. What he's doing there apparently making
another video, But as you heard, their Department of Children,
Youth and Families Commissioner Tiki Brown, who is from Many, Minnesota,
(07:25):
rather said that all of the daycares featured in the
video had been the subject of unannounced visit in the
past six months by the state. Children were present during
those visits, and while the daycare centers had been subject
to past investigations, the state had found no evidence of fraud.
This also just seems so strange. Where there's smoke, there's fire,
(07:49):
it's a weird It's something weird is going on there.
And I hope that we will find it out, and
I hope that we have, I guess, an opportunity now
to look into more fraud in this state, because you know,
we're paying a lot of money in taxes and as
(08:12):
you heard monks talk about it earlier, our roads are
one big old pothole. Our pets heads are falling off,
lots more. There's lots more to come here on Conway,
Andy Reismire in for Tim Conway Junior.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
We've got a game to play.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
In the next couple segments, we're gonna open up the
phone lines hope to hear from you. You can also
leave a message for us in the talkback feature on
the iHeartRadio app. Look for the microphone record up to
thirty seconds and lo and behold as you hear Nicky
is back in the hot seat taking your calls.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
I was driving through those potholes. Yeah, did you have
you blown? You blew a tired, didn't you?
Speaker 7 (08:54):
Don't even that was so bad?
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Is that because of a pothole?
Speaker 7 (08:58):
It was because of the rain. I tried to avoid
the bust that was veering in my lane and I
went up on the median strip and shredded my tire. Okay,
so I drove to I drove three miles on the
Naked Rim, ah Man.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
Three miles on the Naked Rim. I can't wait for
the book. I know that's a great memoir title.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Amazon Amazon BESTSELLERFIM six forty Andy Resmire and for Conway
cut that'll be on the on the dust jacket. That'll
just be like the little you know with the forward
or maybe a quote. It'll be from Crozier. Who's by
the way, wait, who's whose memoir is this?
Speaker 4 (09:35):
Is it? Nicky's? Is it ours?
Speaker 5 (09:36):
The KFI?
Speaker 4 (09:37):
We're just gonna do a KFI memoir.
Speaker 9 (09:40):
Indeed, all right, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on
demand from KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 4 (09:48):
It's I Am six forty live. Everyone in the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Andy Reesmire in for Conway on the Conway Show. Here
love Neil Sevadra.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Just got it.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
His voice is just like music, you know. It's just
there's a flow to It's got a beat and you
could dance to it. Had a message last night from
a talk back a listener rather who didn't get to it,
but I wanted to play it right now.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Andy Benjamin Franklin said, once fish and visitors smell in
three days.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
That's right, That's what it was. Fish and visitors smell
in three days. Three days is a lot of days,
by the way, to have somebody staying at your house,
you know, I mean I think they are, but yeah,
this day and age a family member, Yeah, depends on
who It depends on who they are. I guess it's
a really good point. Uh that's what we're referring to
the other day. And I won't, you know, get into it.
I think that it's funny because my mom I have
(10:41):
even like a guest I have like a guest suite now,
and my mom her own bathroom, she could have her
own little kitchen, at she still doesn't want to stay
at the house.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
She still wants to get a hotel. Must be nice,
Am I right?
Speaker 8 (10:54):
What is that about?
Speaker 9 (10:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
That's fine. I'm happy to have her.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
She's being nice, like not you out.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
You know, it's wild to me because it's like, whenever
in my life did she consider my feelings before? Whenever
was was if she was inconveniencing me part of this relationship.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I love my mom the greatest, but you know, it's
your mom.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
It's not like you know, you're a kid still Forever
I go home and immediately it goes back to the
I'm still like a ten year old. I'm not out
allowed to do anything. I can't cook on the stove.
I have to be exact.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
It's exactly what it is that you're blessed to look
like a ten year old.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
I got a haircut today and I think I just
like I wanted to go out of town and really
look like I was a tourist, you know, so, And
I always tell them, don't cut it too short, and
I don't know what it is about.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
They just like they love cutting the hair short.
Speaker 8 (11:52):
You got to give them the number. That's what I
found out.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
I don't think that a number would work on this.
Speaker 8 (11:56):
On the sides.
Speaker 10 (11:57):
Pally, go just a number whatever for is six on
the sides, and kind of keep it commensurate on top,
don't go crazy.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
Do you think if I said keep it commensurate on
top that they would be like, Okay, we know it.
Speaker 8 (12:08):
Do I know? You go into a barber or a hairstylist,
because that's the difference.
Speaker 4 (12:11):
I went to a barber today.
Speaker 11 (12:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (12:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
I used to go to a place called It's Always
Time for a Haircut. This was back in Indiana, and
it was it was. It was a place where I
watch all the barbers. Yeah, all the all the barbers
there were former inmates. It was like their work release program.
They all ended up working there. And boyl boy, did
they give you a good old haircut. It was the
(12:34):
same haircut.
Speaker 8 (12:36):
And if they didn't, you weren't telling me.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
It was a buzz cut. There was no complaints. I
think it had a one on yelp.
Speaker 8 (12:44):
Were there.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
There's absolutely no complaints. There's no coming back later. Can
you touch it up? Can you fix this? You got
the haircut that any wayward youth in a prison would get.
Either the bowl or the full on basically shaved. Well,
you got to show your tattoos, that's right.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
Like this kid looks like he's it's day one of
boot camp. He enlisted.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Have another yes exactly, and I was like, you know, man,
that was a way that was away.
Speaker 12 (13:13):
Come on, Andrew, you know why it's not covered.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
We're talking about the Minnesota daycare fraud scam, and how
I said that it hasn't been covered a lot locally.
Speaker 12 (13:20):
Yet, Minnesota fraud in southern California because Gavin Gruesome and
the leftist liberals in California run CBS, ABC and NBC
in California. He did omit KTLA and the rest of
the country and their poss And that's what's happening with
the Democratic Socialists of America. It's out of control, and
(13:42):
they don't print it, they don't talk about it. I'm
surprised Fox isn't on it even more.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
I think eventually you will see it being covered locally.
It just takes a couple of days. Once the nationals
do it, then everybody else will do it. KTLA is
really interesting and I think, you know, full disclosure, I
have only worked there, so I can't speak for CBS, NBC,
what the local news. Local newsrooms are like outside of
(14:10):
Channel five. But I think that you would be somewhat
surprised at how many different viewpoints are in the KTLA newsroom.
Speaker 4 (14:20):
I was surprised when I.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
When I first started working there, I would have assumed,
just like everybody else, it was just all a bunch
of West side liberals.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
It is not.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
It is people from all sides of the aisle, and
people at different levels. And I think that there is,
at least at KTLA. I won't say always, but I
think that there is the commitment to try to be nonpartisan,
to be non ideological. I think I want to be
(14:52):
that way. You know, I don't. I don't really feel
like smart enough to come in here and tell anybody
else how to live. And that's all I have to
say about that.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
He just pulled off.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
He just pulled off.
Speaker 13 (15:07):
A suspect thought he could get away from police in
a golf cart.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
We got a hot pursuit.
Speaker 13 (15:13):
Heck yeah, but he didn't know how determine these cops
were to catch him.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Was that as necessary sentence?
Speaker 8 (15:21):
You think, Nah, Hey, get in the golf cart with me.
Speaker 13 (15:26):
Bonnie Cam from Sandy Springs. Police officers in Georgia show
the hot pursuit. They say the person they were after
had warrants out for his arrest when he saw them coming,
They say, he jumped into the nearest vehicle to get away,
which happened to be a golf cart. But there were
plenty more cards for police to get their own and
give chase. After a very brief pursuit, they caught up
(15:49):
with the suspect on the course.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
This is so great, this is the most local news.
First of all, surprise, we didn't have a helicopter over
this hot pursuit. Hot pursuit. After a very listen to
how she under sells this.
Speaker 5 (16:01):
After a very brief pursuit, they poor.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Guy, he got caught. You couldn't give let him live
in that moment, just a little bit.
Speaker 5 (16:09):
Caught up with the suspect on the course.
Speaker 9 (16:12):
They stop, stop the cart, off the cart, stop the cart,
and he did.
Speaker 14 (16:18):
Get out of the cart.
Speaker 9 (16:19):
Thank you, got out of the car.
Speaker 5 (16:21):
Ends up, the suspects surrendered and was taken into custody.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
You got to know halfway through stealing a golf cart,
going off towards the uh towards the eighth hole, you're
probably thinking, like, this isn't gonna happen. I'm not getting
a slow speed chase.
Speaker 8 (16:42):
Where in that process did that hit?
Speaker 4 (16:44):
This is not, yeah, this is not. Apparently about fifteen feet.
Speaker 13 (16:47):
The Department says it used the incident to show that golf.
Speaker 5 (16:50):
Carts make terrible get away vehicles.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Getting the golf cart with me, Oh, this is the
fastest one right here there, all the.
Speaker 5 (16:59):
Exact same been side edition digital and we're in the
golf cart with me.
Speaker 15 (17:03):
Was that the cop was a guy that they were chasing.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
That was a great question, though, That is a good question.
How you doing, By the way, Angel, nice to hear
from you.
Speaker 15 (17:10):
Hey, hey, Andy, I'm doing dandy.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
How are you very well? Thank you so much that
that's the first time he's ever heard that. Actually, not
a lot of people. Not a lot of people say
that one. That's pretty good reason. Oh geez, Louise.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
No, Angel's very unique.
Speaker 4 (17:26):
Oh okay, I like that. That's good. How the road's
moving out there?
Speaker 15 (17:29):
Hey, they're not too shabby. A little crowded here and there,
but you know, it's thinning out as the afternoon goes on.
It's not too shabby, not too shabby at all.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Hey, it's slow?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Is there still and I'm sorry if I'm going to
get somebody in trouble when I asked this question, but
is there still a moratorium on calling it slow rona?
Speaker 15 (17:49):
I throw in a slow rona every now and then,
and thanks for reminding me, because you may hear one.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
Yay? I love that didn't didn't?
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Is this a true story that it was used so
much that the city Corona called and said, please stop
saying that.
Speaker 15 (18:02):
No, Okay, I don't think so, unless you know something
I doubt.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
I don't know. Maybe that was a time story.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I know that we played the heck out of Adele Dezime,
the wickedly talented one and only Adele Dezime. I know
that that's the wicked league talented one and only Adele does.
I gotta tell you, sometimes when I sit down to
do a report, they use the same camera for me,
my close up, my single as they use for the weather.
(18:33):
So a lot of times they have to flip the
camera from the weather feed, which will just be like
the weather person's just looking at an image of themselves,
not the teleprompter. But they'll forget to flip it. So
a lot of times I'll sit down, the camera will
move around and it'll fa focus on me, and I
will not have my script in front of me, which
maybe made me like ready for.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
The radio.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
But in a lot of ways I empathize with mister
Travolta because sometimes you're just going to say adele dezim
and you're just gonna You're just gonna own it.
Speaker 8 (19:05):
That's the key.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
Yeah, I think he owned it.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Yeah, I'll try to find it a little later. Coming up,
we are going to listen to some more talkbacks. We've
got lots of love here for Croje, we love that
little love for Michael Marx and uh something about Nicky's
rim is that? Is that a we can we play that?
Speaker 4 (19:24):
I checked it.
Speaker 8 (19:24):
It's sounds weird.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun you're on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
I really appreciate all the people who have sent in
talkbacks said hello, we'll play a couple here on the
show in just a minute. I want to also let
you know that I do a normal show here on
KFI from two to four pm on Sunday. That's like
the regular gig that I've I've been so lucky to
be able to be given here an opportunity to just
bloviate for two hours and change every Sunday from two
(19:57):
to four, and.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
We take calls.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
We do some fun stuff, a little cap of the
news that happened last week, a little looking forward to
what's happening next week. Sometimes I'll reveal some secrets about
my coworkers at KTLA. Not here, I don't tell any
secrets about but I will say Bill Handle's breath smells fantastic.
Speaker 8 (20:20):
Still Jones and for them Zelmans I need.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
I'm trying to what do I how to do to
get some Zelmans around here. I drink coffee all day long.
I got stinky rot breath. And I know Zelman's works
not only on the tongue, but also in the gut.
That's where bad breath actually lives. That's what it is.
Very good.
Speaker 7 (20:40):
Hey, what's up?
Speaker 4 (20:40):
Those phone lines are flooded.
Speaker 16 (20:41):
But in the meantime, do you Andy, do you remember
Conan O'Brien's first show?
Speaker 4 (20:47):
No one does settle in Relax.
Speaker 10 (20:49):
You're doing great?
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Oh, very kind, thank you. I sometimes I do look
at Conan O'Brien's first show. Have you ever looked at
it on YouTube? Did you really watch it live, did
you think this guy sucks?
Speaker 8 (21:00):
It was not a great first show.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
He definitely settled into his vibe. But he's always been
a genius, I think. And it's funny to watch because
you know he's taken over for Letterman. Yeah, and he
was a genuine unknown at the time. He had been
on SNL as a writer. I think he was in
the background of one episode, and so they gave him
the late show or well.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
Know it was it would have been.
Speaker 8 (21:25):
What was the wasn't it Late late night?
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Late night with Conan O'Brien Late shows on CBS. That's
what Letterman ended up getting. But they gave him the
late night show after Leno at the time, and he
the cold open, you know, which is the sketch before
the show actually starts. Is Conan waking up walking through
New York City and everyone's like, big shoes to fill
(21:48):
Buddy better, uh, better be working on your monologue? Who
are you going to be? No pressure or anything like that.
He walks all the way through Manhattan, passed the bodegas,
and everyone's saying, okay, good luck today. He gets to
his his his office at thirty Rock. It's pretty dark, actually,
(22:08):
and he goes to the office and he's real jolly
and you know, cheery and stuff like that, just cone
and just gone and being happy. Hey everybody, And I
see walks happily into his dressing room, steps on a chair,
throws it tie up over the rafters, and gets ready
to you know, choke himself, ready to kill himself, kick
the chair out from under him.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
And somebody comes in and says, hey, we need you.
You're about to go on.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
He said, ah, really, he said, yeah, right now, the
show's about to start. He said, okay, So then he
hops off. Then it goes and does his monologue and
he is truly very nervous, and you can tell.
Speaker 8 (22:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
But but good, I mean so good that guy. That
guy just a mind like a clock.
Speaker 8 (22:47):
That plays some more.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
Andy's in the Band or what's that called? And in
the reemres Andy in the Valley. Andy in the Valley
is the band and I'll play it a little bit. Anyways,
this is Mike.
Speaker 17 (22:58):
I had the audition to and for Ronner and I
just wasn't Ronner Sonor's great.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
So anyways, so you know, I love the shove.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
You're doing a great thank you. I like his voice too.
I mean, I like Ronner's voice too, but I also
like this guy's voice. He kind of has a little
this is very Orange County.
Speaker 8 (23:17):
Anyways, though, you know, I love the show.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
You're doing a great that's cool.
Speaker 8 (23:21):
I didn't know they were doing auditions for Ronner. I
would have didn't know anything about it. You know that message.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
Did you hear did you hear Ronner say some incredibly
nice things about you after you left yesterday?
Speaker 8 (23:30):
No?
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Yeah, he was like, I don't want to embarrass myself
or or Kroche, but Krosh is like one of my
one of my favorite people ever.
Speaker 16 (23:39):
I was like, Wow, that is so nice. I know, Wow,
it's true, it's true. You're great, You're very good, the
best in the beds. I auditioned for the job that
Gina got, Gina grad got many years ago. I think
I was with you. You were teaching me how to opt.
This probably was before or the pandemic. This is like
(24:00):
twenty nineteen.
Speaker 8 (24:01):
God, was it that long?
Speaker 4 (24:02):
It was that long ago. That's when I think you
and I first met.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
And I remember coming in and again as a listener,
and I thought I knew I was green. I'm still green,
but I knew I was really green then and I
was waging over my head and I'm uh, you know,
she ended up getting the job. But I remember thinking,
you know, I don't think that's the end. And how
(24:25):
cool is it now, so many years later that I'm
back here and I'm working with you guys again.
Speaker 10 (24:29):
When you first started coming in, I was like, that's fantastic. Oh,
thanks our part now, no, you know what we're rectifying.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
I think things do have a way, and it worked
out because I wouldn't have been able to do both
at the time. I was gonna do KTLA full time,
and I think then try to do news anchoring in
the evening.
Speaker 8 (24:45):
I do remember that little detail being.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah, that would have been insane. I would not have lasted.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
And I think this is a much better thing because
I'm only here a couple of days a week, officially
only here one day a week, and I'm happy to
be here anytime anybody asks.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
But you know, I mean, I know what it looks Listen.
Speaker 8 (25:02):
It looks like I might call it sick tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (25:04):
Yeah, it looks like I do a lot of work
on TV. It doesn't look like I spend a lot
of time doing a lot of things. I understand that.
But we've got a note for Krozier. By the way,
let's listen, crows.
Speaker 12 (25:18):
Good to hear you on the news man actually taking
over for Timmy today.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
What the age? That really is great that you're on
my man.
Speaker 12 (25:27):
I can see to you my baseline neighbor next to
my city, next to your city.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Be safe, God bless America.
Speaker 12 (25:37):
Go pack, go.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
All right, awesome, it's my neighbor your it's your actual neighbor,
or just like a neighboring.
Speaker 10 (25:45):
City, he said, baseline neighbor. The baseline is right above
where I live, on the other side of the freeway.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
So there you go.
Speaker 10 (25:51):
Yeah, I don't know which direction, but it's out there.
I'm keeping an eye on it's out.
Speaker 8 (25:55):
There's a.
Speaker 4 (25:58):
Monk and we smiled.
Speaker 11 (26:00):
Show.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
Oh, I think that would be great.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Sure, monks in Reesemeiers sound like a like a seventies
cop duo monks respy.
Speaker 4 (26:12):
But one of them is cool. The other one just
got a haircut today.
Speaker 8 (26:18):
Buy some prison inmates.
Speaker 4 (26:20):
But that's right, it's always time for a haircut.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
You don't like it, shut up, oh boy, all right,
we will start playing our music song in the next
block where does the time go.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
Isn't that crazy? It's already time to give it back
to you. That's a good feeling.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
I think when you burn up all the time, time
to be like, okay, well I can take a break
now for a second. As we go to break this
is go all night with Andy in the Valley, I'll
play like thirty seconds before I hand it back to you.
Speaker 4 (27:02):
Said, let's want to be enough?
Speaker 11 (27:14):
Why are you fended another grating night? Two sounds or
fifteen years? I would join Connor the ash so.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
Bad says on my dude, your best look at me?
Speaker 11 (27:34):
Taut elephant.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
Back, tis someone seen?
Speaker 2 (27:44):
That's what.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
I want to let you go? On Conway Show, any
responding for Tim Conway Jr.
Speaker 9 (27:59):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
You could say hello on the internet an Andy KTLA
on the iHeartRadio app. You can leave a talk back
and we will play it on the show. We've been
playing some of them, and we are about to open
up the phone lines for solo. The solo where I
play an isolated guitar solo from some song that you
definitely probably know, and we ask you to call in
and guess what the song is. It kind of makes
everything sound like a guitar center, you know, when you
(28:28):
walk in and some guys just wailing over in the
corner doing doing like a smoke on the water.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Dang Dang day Dang Dan Danny.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
But before we get to that, the Wall Street Journal
has a report out saying the happiest place on Earth
might be becoming the messiest place on Earth. At Honey,
it is wild. It's called drinking around the World. It's
a challenge on the Internet that people are trying to
do at Epcot. You go to all eleven countries in
the World Showcase and grab a drink at each one
and try not to punch a Disney adult. By the
(29:03):
end of it, guests, of course are going ham wrecking shop,
passing out on park benches, pukin in the bushes. One
guy actually jumped in the fountain while they were playing
the Star Spangled Banner of all things. That's a real
war on Christmas right there. Bartenders are reportedly on high alert,
(29:28):
trying to figure out if you're happy to see Mickey
or if you've just had too much tequila. In Mexico,
but apparently this has become such an issue that it's
leading now to potentially considering monitoring the guests as they
go from place to place.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Yuck. You don't want to do that, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
It's like so weird to me when people are just
like you gotta get totally trashed at Disney World.
Speaker 4 (30:03):
Maybe it's how you cope. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Got another talk back. Let's see who it's from. I
love opening these up, you know, hold on.
Speaker 17 (30:15):
So Andy, this is for you? Okay, good, I'm not
I'm not sure if the message went to the right person,
because originally said John Cobel. So Andy, this is for you.
I heard you rent your socks even though you told
him you don't be able to rent clothes for guys. Yeah,
you do rent your socks. You can always have mismatched
socks for the air. This is your friend, Marshall quote unquote.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
Here, thank you, Marshall. Marshall.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I call you my friend because you call a lot
and I would consider you a friend at this point
unless you're saying Marshall quote unquote because your name isn't
actually Marshall.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
That's what I thought.
Speaker 8 (30:51):
That's what I got from it.
Speaker 17 (30:53):
This is your friend, Marshall quote unquote, they here or
is he saying it for the following sentence quote stay
here quote unquote take care, don't so don't.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
I won't take care, thank you Marshall.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Yes, he is referring to the fact that I never
match my socks, and you can see it on TV.
I started it as like a dumb joke where I
was like, you know, it's bad luck for me not
to match myself, and now I really can't match my
socks anymore. But you save a lot of time every
day if you don't match your socks.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Do you feel a little weird? Yeah, it's a strange
feeling sometimes.
Speaker 12 (31:28):
Love it three miles on a Naked Rim conjures up
good pictures in my brain.
Speaker 4 (31:34):
My god was being filthy. Listen he did say his brain.
It is brain, that's right? Also, was it? Owen Wilson
love it three miles No, not Owen Wilson. Who's that
voice from from her?
Speaker 16 (31:49):
No?
Speaker 13 (31:50):
No?
Speaker 11 (31:50):
No?
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Almost? Whatdy? Harrelson?
Speaker 12 (31:52):
Love it three miles on a naked rim. Totally conjures
up good pictures in my brain.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
I love that. I think it. Actually that has got
to be Woody Harrels or it's a guy who sounds
just like I'd be a lucky girl if it was.
Speaker 14 (32:09):
I'll tell you about a pothole story. I was on
my way to work one day in my Tesla, just
minding my business, going around a corner, when all of
a sudden, wham, I had a pothole. Going probably fifty
miles an hour, my tire light immediately came on, pulled over,
almost drove up to work. Thank god I didn't. Long
story short. It tagoed my rim and blew my tire
(32:32):
thousand dollars later.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
Wait, what did he say?
Speaker 14 (32:35):
It tagoed my rim.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
It tacoed his rim.
Speaker 8 (32:37):
Yeah, you know, like a taco show.
Speaker 4 (32:40):
Oh man, I collapsed it. That's a really good visual storyteller.
Speaker 8 (32:43):
Very good. Yeah, apparently, and it sounds like something that
a phrase has used before.
Speaker 14 (32:47):
It tagoed my rim and blew my tire thousand dollars later.
Oh man, I was rolling again. Those potholes were no fun.
Speaker 4 (32:55):
No fun. Those Tesla rims sound very expensive.
Speaker 8 (33:00):
On a Tesla sounds expensive. It's fixed.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
You know, they're fancy cars these days. I know they're
kind of like the Ford Taurus in Los Angeles, meaning
that they're ubiquitous. They're everywhere, but especially those bigger ones.
I think they can get kind of pricey up there
for sure. Coming up in the next hour, we will
play solo the Solo, I promise we'll get to that,
(33:23):
and we will also talk about young kids, like an
old show's would you believe that gen z are watching
shows for the most part on TV. The majority of
shows that they watch came out before they were born.
This is what's called a deep tease because I realized
I've been teasing this story and I never got to
(33:43):
it on Sunday or yesterday. So brand new content coming
up real soon here on CAFI AM six forty Andy
Reesemeyer in for Conway.
Speaker 4 (33:53):
