Speaker 1 (00:53):
We've got this animal lunatic somebody stall a wombat and
this is not good. This is like exactly what Americans
should not be doing when they're overseas.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
This story breaks my heart.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
Do you see?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
The video is heart breaking? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (01:13):
And I think it's an American that did it too.
It's embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Sam Jones refers to herself as a world traveling cowpoke
on a trip to Australia. She posted that video of
herself with a wild baby wombat on her Instagram or
ninety two thousand followers, and let's just say the Aussies.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Were not amused.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
I got the baby this morning, an American hunting influence There.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
It is an American the most embarrassing people in the
world this morning. American travelers are the worst. Man, We're
the worst. We just think we own the world. We
just go over to other countries and like, if you
will act the way we want to act, screw you.
We just were Americans.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Man.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Whoooo and then you find out you're not. It's not
going to be a roll your way this time.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
This morning. An American hunting influencer sparking backlash overseas after
posting video of herself taking a baby wombat from its mother,
just quart.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
A baby wombat.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
In the video, you can hear the baby wombats screeching
as Sam Jones runs across the street with it to
a car, the mother chasing after her.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
And what is the wombat? Is it like a rat?
Is that? Or is it a koala? Is it a bear?
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I don't even know what a wombat? Is kind of embarrassing.
I think it's like a rat or a raccoon, squirrel.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
It's muscular, quadrupedal marsupials.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Yeah, okay, all right, and they just wanted one. I
guess there it goes.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
They are very cute, very cute. It looks like a
hedgehog or I don't know. I don't know what it
looks like.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Man. But I know we don't have them here. I
know we have no wombats. I've never seen a wombat.
Maybe they have been in the zoo.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
I don't know if the baby and mother are reunited.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
So the mother went chasing after the wombat after these Americans.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Yes, so I have the video. People want to go
on X It's at Conway's show. You can see the
video of it.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
So she picks up the baby and runs across the
street like dangling the baby. The baby's hissing, and the mother, distressed,
goes chasing after a baby.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
God, very heartbreaking. That is crazy, chasing after her.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
See if the baby and mother are reunited. The response
to Jones's post sparking outrage Australians now calling for her
to be deported.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Yeah no, I definitely deport that, but don't bring her
back here. I don't know where do you take her?
Put her in Canada.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
She has since taken the video down. Wildlife experts say
taking a baby like that is not only distressing for
the animals, it may also be against the law in Australia.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Ah, she broke the law. You know, this is my
biggest fear.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
That there's some numb nut who's going to climb that
tree in Big Bear and do it like a goofy face, then.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Steal one of those eglids. You know that's going to happen.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
You know, somebody is going to go up there and
you know and do something to that nest. You know,
take a leak in it, or you know, throw a
Twinkies at it, you know, something crazy that onliners do.
Or they're going to get a drone and fly right
into what you know, into Jackie or Shadow and gone.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
You know it's going to happen. People are just crazy.
Speaker 6 (04:26):
The flat out stress can be amazing. An animal can
die of that kind of stress.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
Australia's Home Off is confirming that Jones's visa is under review.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
She's in another country and she acts like that man
when you're in another country. My my mom always said,
when we go to see the world, the world sees us,
so you better f and behave you pieces of s
That was a that was almost word for word, but
we got no, no, no, yeah, and that that came
either before or after. Sometimes it was before, sometimes it
(04:58):
was after. I wish I never had any of you.
You ever get that from mom? Yeah, that's that's a
wake up call and you never get Did you ever
get that croache?
Speaker 2 (05:06):
I wish I never had you.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
I've heard, Uh, yeah, your mom and I were having
sex for fun when we had you.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
That I got that. That's I didn't mean it. Oh,
that's awesome. Something broke.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
This just the latest incident of someone getting too close
to wild animals.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Yeah, just when you're in somebody else's country, act like
you're a visitor, you're a guest of the country, you know.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Maybe I was brought up differently, But even when I'm
in Oregon when I go to see my wife's family
because she's from that part of the world, when I
drive in Oregon, I drive like I'm in another country
because I'm in another state. I'm not in my home state.
And I drive very carefully in Oregon because that's not
my home state. I'm a visitor, and I act like
(05:56):
a visitor. I act like a tourist. I act like
I'm a guest and more because I am a guest.
I'm a guest of Oregon. I just saw the video
for the first time, and I am man. It's one
of those few times when you wish you could reach
the screen and just pound someone.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, it's horrible. It really is horrible. Right, this woman
stole a wombat. Here we go.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Last April, a group of people yanked two bear cups
from a tree in Asheville, North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
She's holding her bear.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
All to get a selfie. In June twenty twenty three,
this woman was nearly gored by a bison in Yellowstone,
also trying to get a picture.
Speaker 6 (06:38):
People need to respect these animals. Admire them from a distance,
but don't go up to try to get close pictures.
Don't try to pet one, don't try to get a
baby now.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
Waldbats are listed as protected species in Australia and permits
are required for those who do interact with them. We
reached out to officials there to find out if any
charges could be coming. They would only tell us that
they are aware of the incident. We also reached out
to Jones for comment. We did not hear back.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
You know, there's there's always a very mild, tepid response
to crap like this.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
If they just took her.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
And and put her in prison for the rest of
her life, I think people would stop that kind of crap.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
She apparently did reply to criticism online at one point,
and she said something to the effect of the baby
was carefully held for one minute in total, and then
released back to mom. They wandered back off into the
bush together, completely unharmed, and she said, I don't ever
capture wildlife that will be harmed by my doing so, which.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Tells you what she's done it before. Yes, yeah, and
she'll do it again. Yeah. I think they got to
put her in a zoo. There should be a zoo
filled with a holes. Wouldn't you love to see that?
Oh my god, you're like, oh, that guy killed a
couple of people, and you know they sit there on rocks,
you know, like the like the gorillas or elephants or
you know, kangaroos, and you can go through the loser's
(07:58):
zoo when I lose Lose Zoo los I.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
One of my favorite things, if ever I'm doom scrolling
to search for is people being instantly humbled and it's
usually somebody being a total b hole and they get
their come up and really quick and it is a
satisfying thing, you know.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I think I'm onto something. If you could reduce your
sentence in prison by reporting to the Losers Zoo, you know,
and it'll be a lot of like the La Zoo,
and it's just filled with a holes like oh, that's
the woman who took the wombat, and you could.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Yell at her like hey, why'd you do that? Zuser?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
You throw your feces at her, you know, and for
twenty five cents you can feed her, you know, a
fistful of food.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
And I like this idea.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Yeah, and you just shame them, you know, you just
constantly shame these people in the Losers Zoo.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
I think it's a great idea. A quarter for the pooth.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I think it's a winner. I think it's a huge
winning idea. I would go every day to see who's
new who's the new loser. Oh it's this guy.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
What do you do?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
He wrote his bicycle into a couple of kids and
paralyze one of them. Okay, well, I want to see
what that guy looks like. Okay, that's what he looks like.
I get him, all right. What's next? Oh, the guy
that went through the car Max and you know with
his car. I'd like to see that guy. Oh, here's
another one to chase the guy stole the tank in
San Diego and run from the cops.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Oh, man, is that guy next? I want to see
that guy looks like.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
And they can just yell at these people, you know,
if there's a moat there so they can't get out.
That's a great idea. It's a great look. I'd rather
go there than the La Zoo. I'd pay a hundred
bucks to get in, you know, just to see what
these people look like.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Andy yell at him a little bit. I think it's
a great idea.
Speaker 7 (09:38):
The new Loser Zoo.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
Come and that's a great idea. Belly, let's put it together.
You've got time. Why don't you put that together? Yeah,
put that together.
Speaker 8 (09:47):
Man.
Speaker 9 (09:48):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Forty midnight tonight.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Lunar Eclipse Tonight at midnight the lunar eclipse. So go
look at that. You'll enjoy that. And there you go,
all right, think go wrong with you?
Speaker 2 (10:09):
All right?
Speaker 1 (10:10):
There was a there was something else I wanted to
do here, not Rosie in Ireland. Oh, this is what
it is, okay, the real ID. When you're flying, and
if you've flown recently, TSA and the you know, the
the lady at the counter will tell you you need
a real ID soon to fly, and if you don't
(10:31):
have it, it's only two months away. If you don't
have a real ID, they may not let you fly.
They're not supposed to. So you got to get a
real ID. You gotta go to the DMB and get
yourself a real ID.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Two months from now, Ye're going to be on top
of it.
Speaker 10 (10:46):
This year, the deadline for the federal real ID is
quickly approaching. Starting May seventh, US travelers over eighteen will
be required to present a real AD.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Did you hear that? Don't half ass this, don't wait
till last minute. Don't until you're going to Europe. To
you in your family vacation and you stayed home because
you don't have a real ID.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Here's the date, starting May seventh, May.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Seven, five seven, May seventh, you need a real ID.
Speaker 10 (11:15):
Starting May seventh, US travelers over eighteen will be required
to present a real ID or another form of identification,
such as a passport to board domestic flights.
Speaker 11 (11:25):
The enforcement deadline's been extended a couple of times, but
it's coming up now May seventh of this year, and
after May seventh, you're going to need a real ID,
compliance ID, or driver's license to get through federal security
like a TSA checkpoint at airport.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Right.
Speaker 10 (11:43):
The DMV says over eighteen point eight million Californians currently
have their real ID.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
That's less than half. I think, yeah, it's less than half.
Eighteen million people in California is less than half. I
think we're at forty million in California.
Speaker 10 (11:59):
Without a real ID or passport, travelers won't be able
to board domestic flights. Many travelers at the Long Beach
airports say the process was best and easy, pretty easy.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute.
Speaker 10 (12:11):
What Many travelers at the Long Beach airports say the
process was best and easy?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Okay, all right, but what about the DMV where you
get your real ID?
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Is that fast and easy?
Speaker 10 (12:22):
I don't know it was pretty easy.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I got it in Texas. I did get it when
I was in California, I lived here.
Speaker 12 (12:28):
I got it when I got in Texas.
Speaker 6 (12:30):
So.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Three years ago.
Speaker 13 (12:32):
It took a few of those fires coming in the mail.
Speaker 14 (12:35):
But I just went and made an appointment.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
At the DMV.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
Brought on my paperwork.
Speaker 15 (12:38):
My I think you need like two, maybe three like
pieces of verification of your address.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
I always get stumped with that. It's always stumped the
monkey with me because I bring nine hundred pieces of ID,
birth certificate, I bring the long form, the short form,
I bring you know, electric bills, gas bill, water bill,
I bring everything, insurance, and I'm always one short. I
(13:06):
always have to leave and go home and make another appointment.
I always have one thing missing.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Always.
Speaker 10 (13:14):
Applying for a real ID requires three steps.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Okay, here we go. Listen to this. Listen carefully. Okay,
you need a real ID, and I'm gonna tell you
the three steps, or she's gonna tell you, but I'm
gonna play it. So we're in on this together.
Speaker 10 (13:28):
Proof of identity, proof of California residency, and a trip
to the DMV.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Okay, that's what you need again. Proof of identity, proof
of identity.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
You need ID and Norm McDonald was the guy that
said that abbreviation IS is not really balanced. I stands
for I me I, I stands for I. D stands
for identification. Not much balance there. You need an eye ID, okay,
(14:01):
proof of identity, proof of identity.
Speaker 10 (14:03):
Proof of California residency, proof.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Of your resident here in the state of California, and
a visit too, and a trip.
Speaker 10 (14:10):
To the DMV.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
The d MV work under ID.
Speaker 11 (14:13):
A couple documents are required, one form of identification like
a passport for a certificate. To get a California real ID,
you have to show that you're a California resident.
Speaker 10 (14:24):
Now, the DMV says, if you don't have your real
ID and you don't have any plans to travel, then
you can obtain one when you were new year expired license.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Okay, all right, well I don't know who that is.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
You know, if you can wait five years and I
go anywhere in life, that's possible. How about that though,
at the end, if you're sort of into fitt where
you'd never go anywhere, never visit anybody, no family, no friends,
no desire to see anything in this country, well you're fine, Yeah,
just wait until you renew your license in five years
(14:57):
and you'll be fine. You'll be fine, man. All Right,
Tonight midnight total eclipse of the moon. I call it
the lunar eclipse, and it's happening to night, all right.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
We're live on KFI AM six forty tonight at midnight.
You are going to see the eclipse. Whether you like
it or not. I demand you go outside and look
at it. So there's your assignment for tonight.
Speaker 9 (16:37):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
You know, there are some properties out in Pacific Palisades
that have been totally cleared and they're ready to build.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
They obviously they did it. They probably did it on
their own.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
You know, they got a couple of bucks and they
hired a guy to come out and just take all
that crap away. And I don't know if that's the
better idea or not. I mean, yeah, you're you know,
you might be a year ahead of everybody or two
years ahead of everybody, but then over the next two
years you're living around burned out houses and people doing construction.
(17:15):
So I don't know what the better move is. To
get it moving quickly and to get back up, back
up on your feet and back to where you were,
and then there's construction and burn homes around you for
two years or to wait and do it. Like everybody
else where, the whole neighborhood sort of opens up in
the same period, maybe two years from now.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
We have never gone through this as a society, so
we don't know what the answers are. It's new every
single day, every single day. And I think one of
the reasons why everybody is into Jackie and Shadow, those
two eagles up in Big Bear, is because I think
we need to see that. You know, we've had a
(17:58):
lot with the fires, the wind, the floods, the earthquakes,
the terrorist attack in New Orleans, and it's nice to
just jump away from all of it and go look
at Jackie and Shadow, those two eagles who have three eaglets,
and they're kicking ass up in Big Bear. They're one
(18:22):
hundred and forty feet off the ground in Big Bear,
in a huge nest. It's about six feet wide. Let's
find out what's going on with these birds in.
Speaker 15 (18:30):
Big Bear leg bald eagle pair of Jackie and Shadow.
They are shaking off the snow to keep their three
chicks wool. Here's a live look at the nest cam
run by the Friends of Big Bear Valley and you
can watch them stream on our website.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Not a mighty who's in the background, No to keep
their three chicks wool.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Here's a loofah, guy's going to work with that cough.
Speaker 15 (18:51):
Here's a live look at the nest cam run by
the friends of Big Bear Valley, and you can watch
the stream on.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Our aw I can't. I can't listen to anymore. I
feel like I'm going to get the flu or whatever.
That guy's got rolling. Man, do you look at that crows?
Are you an eagles guy?
Speaker 5 (19:10):
I don't make a habit of it. When it comes
across my screen. I'll definitely check it out for a while.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Look at those eagles. Yeah, man, I got it.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I like when they go to it and they go, oh,
that's Jackie on the nest, Like, you don't know, you.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Don't know who there's What are you saying? Yeah, you
don't know the difference between shadow.
Speaker 5 (19:27):
It was a video that somebody highlighted the I guess
from it. At some point people have to be watching
this thing literally twenty four to seventy catch some of
the things that are actually happening. I guess one of
them was shooting away some crows or ravens or really
that that we're up there. We're up there trying to
get in.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
Oh wow, all right, you know you can.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I think it's a twelve to twenty four hour period
where they put it up and you can. You can
go back and fast forward through the day, you.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Know you can. Yeah, yeah, it is to check it out.
Oh yeah, yeah, it's kind of a cool deal.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
And I like looking at it every once in a while,
not as often like I think when they were born
it was, you know, a novel idea.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Again there, look at it. But now I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:10):
Because they're still sitting on the eglits, right, yeah, yeah,
I think once they start getting up and letting them
move around and get a little bit older, I think
I'll peek back in there.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Makes me too.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Nervous that some mountain lion's going to climb up there
and wipe them out.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
You know. That's why some people are watching. They're waiting
to see something just pop its head for a camera.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Right, or one of those eglits falling out of the nest,
you know, screaming in.
Speaker 13 (20:38):
And do you think that do you think the eglit
will make it all the way down to the ground,
or do you think that something will swoop down and
snatch it out of the sky.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Oh yeah, I think there's birds flying around all the
time waiting to get one of those solid eglits.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Which you think is worse for the poor eaglids thinking no, no,
somebody sayment all of a sudden.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
No, no, not this.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
But I think they're high end meal, you know. I mean,
you know, if you're a hunter, you gotta you know.
That's like lobster here it is. Yeah, Oh, that's Jackie
sitting on the nest. I don't know if it's Jackie
yours shadow, but man, it's a lie. Wow, that's you know,
(21:19):
those are ice. Those are pellets of ice hitting the
back of this eagle. And it's really windy up there
that that that nest is filled with snow and ice.
Oh man, I worry about those leaguelets. They're gonna be Okay,
forty three thousand people watching right now.
Speaker 2 (21:38):
Wow, And that's a big place.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
And they're all saying the same thing. Ah, how the birds?
Speaker 5 (21:45):
Which one is it?
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Yeah, it's a shadow? How bet they're tired of being
on camera? Yeah, they're not getting any money out of it.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Because they're residuals, nothing ripping them off.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
All right, Well, there you go. You can go look
at the big beer Eagle live nest. Forty two, six
hundred and ninety five people watching right now. And the
sound you hear is ice hitting the back of one
of these birds, and there's a lot of it. That
entire six foot nest is filled with ice and snow.
(22:24):
And are those a little eager? I mean, I don't
know if she gave birth too early. I don't know
if that's supposed to be later in the spring. I
don't know any think about that, but it seems like
there's too much snow and too much ice for these little,
tiny newborns. I hope they survive. It makes me nervous
when I look at that much snow up there. I'm
(22:47):
rooting for them. I'm rooting for them. And there's a
dead fish sitting right there. That fish was just buzzing
around the lake a couple hours ago. Now he's sitting
up in the nest. Bad day for the fish.
Speaker 9 (22:58):
You're listening to and Conway Junior on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Ah right, we have police activity. I guess it's sort
of breaking news on the Claremont campus. Is that near you,
CROs Clairemont McKenna. It's one of the colleges there in Claremont. Yes,
how far are you from Claremont campus? Mile really?
Speaker 11 (23:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (23:19):
Yeah, My wife just sent me a text that that
that that was sent out for campus safety unification. There's
a potential shooter on CMC campus. Stay away from the area. God,
heavy police presence going on this world.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
That we live in, that's very heavy police presence.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
I mean Jackie in shadow all right here he is.
We were a police activity in Claremont, very.
Speaker 9 (23:44):
Heavy police presence on the campus of Claremont McKenna College.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
Let's get more from Chris Christy in Air seven.
Speaker 16 (23:49):
Chris, Hey, there guys were up over Claremont McKenna College
where there has been a report that has been sent
out to the people on campus here of a possible
government on campus TK and I's out here police investigating.
There are a handful of units out here. You can
see a bearcat on the campus as well. Of course,
as we get more information, we'll bring it to you.
Right now, they are not confirming any of this information,
(24:11):
but there is an alert that has gone out to
students on.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Camp when do you think parents say screw it to
Southern California and take their kids out of these campuses.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
That might be around the corner. LA is a little
too radical for a lot of people. That's probably around
the corner. Probably around the corner, all right, LA restaurants. Oh, yes,
Los Angeles restaurants. Everybody enjoys the restaurant. They've been added
to the Michelin Guide. So we're getting some decent restaurants
(24:41):
now in LA. Find out where they are.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
For more proof.
Speaker 8 (24:43):
Southern California it's a world class and dining destination. Michelin
just added seven new LA based restaurants to its prestigious guide.
And looking at these dishes, you can see why. The
restaurants include Cassano in Culver City, Celine in Santa Monica,
Tomat in Westchester, and a restaurant Kai in Little Tokyo.
(25:05):
All seven restaurants opened in twenty twenty four. Michelin inspectors
spent all year on the road and covering the best
restaurants in the world to recommend congratulations.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
I have never heard of any of those, never been there,
never heard of them.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
What are they again?
Speaker 8 (25:20):
And looking at these dishes. You could see why the
restaurants include.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
All right, here we go. Have you been to any
of these?
Speaker 8 (25:25):
Cassano in Culver City?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Anybody? Casano Culver City?
Speaker 8 (25:30):
No? Pass Okay, Selene in Santa Monica, Nope, Tomat in
Westchester over three, and a restaurant Kai in Little Tokyo.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
I've never even heard of these restaurants. I heard of Kai?
Speaker 8 (25:45):
Have you?
Speaker 1 (25:46):
I have not heard of any of them. That may
sort of make sense, not a Michelin kind of go
out there. The only Michelins I have are the tires
on my car.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
That's all I got. Now, I'll like where that came from.
Is that right? Yes, because you drive to the restaurants
exactly basically.
Speaker 13 (26:07):
Talking about the song that Timmy's. Was it your uncle Tim?
Speaker 1 (26:10):
No, it was the guy named Jay Cohen who's the
bugler out at sant Anita, And he wrote the greatest
title for a country song ever, And the title of
the song was the only good years we ever had
were the tires on our car. That's a great, great
ass title, unbelievable title. That should be a Michelin title
(26:31):
for a song. That's a terrific title. All right, Cruise
Living there's gonna be a lot of people retiring over
the next couple of years. There are more than four
million people about to turn sixty five in this country,
four million, and they all want to get on a ship,
and they all want to go cruising.
Speaker 14 (26:52):
America is seeing a boom in retirement baby boomers sail
into their golden years. More than four million people are
going to turn sixty five this year alone, part of
the largest wave of retirement age Americans in history, and
some are choosing to sail. Literally, life at sea is
what they want. Nancy Chen shows us what it means
to call a cruise ship home.
Speaker 7 (27:14):
Diny Dancy.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
You know, these never work out where they always you know,
they say, oh, we're gonna go cruising for kill years,
and then they give the money and then the ship
never shows up, or their cabin has not been built,
or you know, the ship never existed.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
It's always seems like a scam.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
At least that's it seems like a scam every time
somebody's going to go on a ship. You know, they
spend one hundred and twenty thousand dollars their life savings
and they're just sitting in San Pedro at their luggage,
staring at the water.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Home.
Speaker 7 (27:50):
Diny dancing and boueling pianos. Wow, sailing around the world.
Speaker 12 (27:57):
I live at soon I'm retired.
Speaker 7 (27:59):
These are the years for Joe Johnston. How many long
term cruises have you been on at this play.
Speaker 12 (28:04):
I've probably done six or eight cruises of eighty days
or longer. Is this home it is? I sold everything
that wouldn't fit my car, then I sold the car.
Speaker 7 (28:17):
On board the sixty nine year old gets everything rolled
into one meals, travel, entertainment, and housing, all for by
her estimate, one hundred thousand dollars a year.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
She knocked it out where she has one hundred grand
at the end of her life.
Speaker 7 (28:30):
What are the caveats? What are the things that people
should watch out for.
Speaker 12 (28:35):
I think it's important to really track what you're spending
in some way, so I can tell you last year
how much I spent on a per day on drinks
or on short excursions on average.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Is there a fun lady to hang with? She knows
how much she spent every day on drinks? Is a
casual drinker? Pass with this lady?
Speaker 7 (28:58):
We met Johnston on board Holland America.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Maybe that's why she's alone on the ship. Ye know,
she's watching every dime, So she's single. She's probably single. Yeah, sweet, Yeah,
she's single. You can go a drink with her. Just
she'll pull her little notepad out every time you take
a sip.
Speaker 6 (29:14):
Nice.
Speaker 7 (29:14):
We met Johnston on board Holland America's Grand World Voyage
as it traveled from Florida to Grand Cayman Or a
tenerary over one hundred and twenty four days will ultimately
include Bali, Cape Town and Barcelona.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
No Pad coming out, No Pad another drink.
Speaker 7 (29:32):
Lunchtime was alongside a group of friends she sailed with
over the years. Did you know each other before all
of this?
Speaker 5 (29:39):
No?
Speaker 12 (29:40):
No, we bet ownership.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
It's like you're traveling.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Yeah, we put that together.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
When you say we've never met before the cruise, we
all put together that you.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Met on the ship.
Speaker 7 (29:50):
Did you know each other before all of this?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
No?
Speaker 1 (29:53):
No, Okay, then we put it together that you met
on the ship.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
We bet own the ship. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
Then it's like you're traveling with a bunch of friends exactly.
Speaker 1 (30:03):
Family, a bunch of pickpocketers. I bet I bet they've
That's why they're on the ship. They're there to steal
everybody's money, all right, a little negative.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
I get that, Okay, I get it.
Speaker 7 (30:14):
When you talk about loneliness and isolation among older Americas.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
What a doubt of this reporter is They're out cruising
around the world and she brings up.
Speaker 7 (30:23):
Loneliness, loneliness and isolation among older Americans.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
It seems like this, yeah right, It's like, hey, I know,
you're tremendous loser, loneliness, happiness.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
It takes less than two.
Speaker 7 (30:36):
Loneliness and isolation among older Americans. It seems like this
is thrower overboard. Such a wonderful way to connect with people.
Speaker 1 (30:46):
The cruise line, but also my friends, and they're so
welcoming and they.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Look after you.
Speaker 7 (30:52):
Loyal following is one reason why Holland America has kicked
off two of these cruises simultaneously.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
You don't have noticed, Like my made a lot of
friends wherever she went. My mom when she moved to
Steamboat Springs. I went to visit her about three weeks
after she moved there, and she had twenty really good friends.
She makes friends everywhere she goes instantly, And I was like, ma,
how do you know all these people?
Speaker 8 (31:17):
Well?
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I played bridge, I went to the bar, I went
to the restaurant, I went the DMV. I met this
guy at the DMV. I'm at that lady at Bridge
and at this and she knew everybody at this couple
of church and she would make friends instantly. But I
will say this, if you have a mom or dad
who makes friends later in life, it's always two seconds away.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
From blowing up.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Always, and it'll start with do you have to do that?
And then you're off to the races. Late friendships very fragile,
very fragile, and you got to work on them, man,
because they could blow up and gone just gone eight seconds.
