Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Stop teenways go back to it.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Five. This is the five oh five News Whip KFI
AM sixty. It is the Conway Show, and it is
the Friday before Memorial Day. And like every single Friday
and Thursday and every weekday, we do the five oh
five News Whip. And since it was Bellio's idea fifteen
(00:38):
years ago, let's start with Bellio. What's going on out
there that we should know about Bellio?
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Well, according to a new report from wallet Hub, twenty
five of the of thirty least affordable cities in the
entire country are right here in California.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Whew.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Can you guess the top of the list.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Okay, the most affordable or the most expensive? Least affordable?
Least affordable? Okay, most expensive? Yes, all right, let's sEH
Marin Count Marin. Is that on the list? San Francisco,
it's Santa Barbara. Santa Barbara's the most expensive.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Where homes average a jaw dropping thirteen hundred per square
foot compared to compared to Flint, Michigan, where it's just
sixty one dollars per square foot. Santa Monica isn't far behind,
with twelve hundred dollars per square foot in Los Angeles,
San Francisco, San Jose, and San Diego are all on
the list. Zillo says you need to make around two
(01:32):
hundred and ninety seven thousand dollars a year to afford
a home in California with just ten percent down and
if you're eyeing San Jose, that number jumps to over
five hundred thousand. Even with a twenty percent down payment,
you still need to make about four hundred and twenty
five thousand eight.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Wow, all right, you got to you gotta you gotta
have it going on to live up there.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Even when you got it going on, it isn't.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Enough, all right, So you don't consider I mean, you
would have to earn.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I think a lot of those homes up there, our
people have been there for forty fifty sixty.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Years, generational homes.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, yeah, I think that's what's going on there, all right, Crozier,
what's going on in the world.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Bob, Well, hummingbird feeders are speeding up evolution.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
Anna's hummingbird is a common species here in southern California,
but new research says artificial hummingbird feeders have allowed them
to expand up to the northern end of the state.
Hummingbood bird feeders have been around since roughly nineteen hundred,
but they really took off after World War II, and
by the nineteen fifties hummingbirds were noticeably different from the
nineteen thirties or about ten generations of birds. Their beaks
(02:36):
have also dramatically changed in size and shape. They've gotten
longer and larger to slurp up more nectar from the
artificial ones. It's like having a large spoon to eat with.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
The change was more pronounced than areas where feeders were dense,
but in birds that lived in colder area up north,
the opposite thing was happening and their beaks went shorter
and smaller, animal experts says. Experts say it shows evolution
and action. Male umming birds have also developed pointier and
sharper beaks wow, which often often indicates aggressiveness, and researchers say, well,
(03:06):
anyone who has a feeder knows that hummingbirds, especially male
humming birds, fight like crazy.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Okay, I didn't know that we have two humming bird feeders.
So I guess I'm helping out, you know, the the
move up north. You are, you know, supplying him down
here down south so they can have the energy to
move up north. Yeah. Yeah, I like the hummingbird feeders.
I've seen some people put that ring on that looks
like a flower and there's nectar in there and they'll
(03:33):
land on your finger. I'm not quite there yet.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
Have you seen Kearn Shart from Coast Yes, her poster things.
Oh yeah, she sticks the one in her mouth and
she's got a little camera there and they come right
up to her lips.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
It's unbelievable. All right, Angel Martinez, what's happening out in
the world.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
So you know we've all heard of ozembic face, right,
remember that you're looking kind of like, you know, I
don't know, losing the fountain face after taking ozempic. Well,
now there's ozembic teeth. And what's happening is it's an
unofficial term so far, and it's something that's being noticed
(04:13):
in when people go in for their dental exams. There's
no scientific connection yet or scientific evidence yet that ozempic
is causing these problems. But what dentists are finding is
that people who are taking drugs like ozempic are coming
down with more decaying teeth, bad breath, and gum disease. God,
(04:37):
And so they're connecting that with one of the side
effects of ozempic, which is it since it slows down
your digestion, it also stops your body from producing saliva,
and so it can dehydrate you. And saliva is actually
your body's natural way to clean its own teeth. So
(04:58):
your mouth is dry, You've got you know, dry mouth,
your breath stinks, and you're thirsty, so drinks.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
So and we're relatively new with this ozempic. Oh yeah,
you know, this thing has come out what a year
maybe two years ago, three years ago, and we're having
all these problems. Can you imagine what these problems will
be like in forty years, like you know, three or
four generations or two or three generations of people.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
All the other side effects and things that we're going
to find out that happens from long term use of
these types of drugs. I never meant to be used
for weight loss to begin with. But you know, yeah,
but you know what, people will look good, so oh yeah,
they're looking hot.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, their faces you know, all messed up and their
teeth are gone, but man, they look hot.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Yeah, so just drink some water and you'll be fine.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
There you go. All right, that's Angel Martinez by Steph Fush.
What's going on in the world? Bub Well, we like
ourselves some McDonald's, right, love it? Oh yeah, I'm loving it.
Speaker 7 (05:58):
So they got the new chicken strips coming out called
the Crispy Strips.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
How are they you're trying?
Speaker 7 (06:04):
I have not had them yet, but I might have
to have them this weekend because they're gonna give the
Way give away them for free. What Yeah, so you
can get your hands on some free mccrispy strips.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
But there's a catch.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
You need to enter into Instagram hashtag dip for mccrispy
strips giveaway and tag go fuji.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Oh my god. Yeah, isn't it easier to give them
four dollars? Yeah? Right, so you have to you have
to on social media. You have to.
Speaker 8 (06:37):
You have to.
Speaker 7 (06:37):
Yeah, you have to like post a picture and then
put the hashtag and then tag go fuji.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Okay, are we too loud for belly on? She wanted to.
We had it's all man, She really bangs it out
on that phone. Huh wow, wait turn you three your
mike and I'm the listener. She's all right, excellent. That
is the news whip. If you follow horse racing, a
(07:06):
very good friend of mine, a guy named Ted Ziggenbush.
He gives out the cheat sheet every day. He gives
you his picks. Well, he just nailed the pick five,
the super high five in the last race at sant Nita.
So if we were to put down one hundred and
twenty dollars, right, and so me, Krozier, Angel Bellio and
Steph fuch what is that? Five people? So we each
(07:28):
put up by, you know, twenty five dollars and we'd
get close. So we'd all put up twenty five dollars
and we boxed the the numbers three, four, five, six, seven.
We would have hit and we would have all been
sharing thirty two hundred dollars right now, and we had
all been very happy. But we didn't play it because
(07:51):
we're working. So thirty two hundred dollars divided by five,
we all would have made six hundred and forty dollars.
Does that name ring a bell? That number ring a bell?
Six hundred and forty dollars. We all would have been
going home today six hundred and forty dollars richer. But
we didn't do it because we're workaholics and we're committed
(08:11):
to this company, and we did not go to the
racetrack instead of working today. But we would have hit
thirty two hundred dollars. Who that was the super high
five at Sanity, I'd be sweet. Yeah, it's actually thirty
one ninety and thirty cents, but we would have figured
that out.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
We're gonna have an update of what's going on the
seventy one northbound when we come back.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, seventy one jam My daughter just texted me.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
She's in it.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Oh, she's in that traffic jam. Yeah, oh no northbound.
Huh I believe Ah, that's horrible. Okay, welcome back, and
you'll hear an update on the seventy one freeway.
Speaker 9 (08:49):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
The problem that we talked about earlier on the seventy
one freeway, it's still closed. Krozier his daughters all involved
with that stuff. He just told me they're flying now.
Oh good good, it all opened up. Woo Okay, But
what happened earlier this morning. Let me have the cops
explained it to you. They do a much better job
than I could possibly This.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Morning, at approximately eleven thirty hours, the California Higher Patrols
Inland Communications Center received numerous calls of a female pedestrian
right shoulder of SR. Seventy one. They immediately dispatched an officer.
He immediately encountered the pedestrian. She was armed with a knife.
The pedestrian advanced towards the officer, at which time an
officer involved shooting occurred. The suspect was struck one time.
(09:40):
Officers immediately rendered aid and she was transferred to a
local hospital with a non life threatening injury. Our officers
were unharmed.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yeah, okay, so somebody has lost it and approached the
cops with a knife. That always is met with a
radical response, So good morning people for thirty years, don't
do that when when you're pulled over by the cops,
they want one hundred percent order. Remember that they want
one hundred percent order, And when you have a knife
(10:13):
and you're walking towards them, you're out of order and
you could get shot, you could get killed. Don't do it.
Not a good way to go, all right, Alex Michaelson
as whether it's Alex.
Speaker 8 (10:24):
Hi you bob ding dong with you?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Ding dong with you? Young man? Hey? Are you a
big Memorial Day guy? Do you fly out and do
stuff or surf or play tennis or pickleball or something.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
I'd like to try to go to the beach this weekend, hopefully.
I'm actually supposed to play pickleball with my one of
my friends, which I've never really played. Do you play pickleball?
Are you into that?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Not only do I not play, but I look down
on people who do.
Speaker 8 (10:54):
Do you why because you're a tennis snub or what's
your deal?
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I just feel like it's a It's a really simple
game that anyone can really do, and there's not really
much skill in it. And the best pickleball player in
the world is pretty close to the worst pickleball player
in the world.
Speaker 8 (11:14):
Yeah, there's my new You've got no You've got no
respect for the game. Have you ever tried it?
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Well? No, but I've looked at it and it seems
like like I looked the best. If I were to
play Michael Jordan in basketball, i'd get be twenty to nothing,
fifty things, one hundred and nothing, whatever. The score was, right.
But if I played pickleball, and I've never played before,
I think I could hold my own against a lot
of people.
Speaker 8 (11:40):
Well that's maybe that's why it's so popular, right, because
people feel like it's inclusive, right, and that's it's the
most popular thing. Yeah. Right, But most of the Americans
are not great athletes. That's that's where we're at as
a country right now.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
That's my point. They're bsing you into buying these rackets
and these balls, into thinking, hey, you're good at the
sport and you're not.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
So pickleball is just America's ego boost.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
That's exactly right. It's one hundred percent. It's one hundred percent.
You'll you'll you'll leave pickleball today and you're like, oh,
I got to buy a racket. I gotta buy my
pickleball clothes, I gotta buy my pickleball balls. I gotta
buy all this pickleball stuff. And then you'll go in
the closet in two weeks. You'll never play again.
Speaker 8 (12:18):
All right, I'll report backs. I can tell you how it.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Was, all right, what I I know you're a big guy,
you know, celebrity and political guy, and you got this
big show every single Friday called The Issue Is Is
this no exception?
Speaker 8 (12:33):
Well, yeah, we never really get a week off, that's right, unfortunately,
but yeah, see we've got to We've got another show
this week. This week we're talking to Antonio Vira Goosa,
the former mayor of Los Angeles who's running for governor
of California. And he kind of made some news this
week because you know, there's this new book out, Original Sin,
all about you know, Joe Biden's mental decline and how
(12:54):
everybody around him seemed to cover it up for many years.
And you know one of the people, yeah, well that's
that's you know they did. As a book makes that
very clear if you read it. It's a good book.
It's interesting. And you know Kamala Harris, who made a
big deal about the fact that she would, you know,
the last person in the room with him on the
(13:14):
big decisions and was around him and having lunch with him,
and you know, talked about how close she was with him.
So did you not see it or did you not
tell people about it? Or was this all okay? And
so now Antonio is potentially running against Kamala Harris for governor.
So he's saying, what's the deal, Kamala Harris, what did
you know when? And why didn't you? Why did you
(13:35):
say anything? And then he's also including in that group
Javier Besserra, who was a member of the cabinet, the
Secretary of Health and Human Services, but who was not
necessarily known for his close relationship with Joe Biden. If
you remember, when Xavier Bessera was introduced for the role,
he called it the Secretary of Education and Health and
said his name was Favier Bacaria. So maybe that was,
(13:55):
you know, there was a sign then that everything wasn't
going great for Uncle Joe.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
I took some shots at Antonio Vira Goosa, never on
a personal level, but only, you know, because of the
way he mismanaged the city of Los Angeles. And I
said about him one day on the radio, I said,
you know, he's done more damage to the city of
La than al Qaeda has, and if you think about it,
it's probably true. So I'm at the racetrack one day
(14:23):
and one of my stupid ass friends says, hey, I
want you to meet somebody, And I walk up to
the table and Antonio via Gosa and he goes, hey,
this is Conway's on KFI and he goes, oh, I
heard what you said about me on KFI. And I said, ah,
you do your job. I do mine. And he laughed
and he never had like a negative thing to say
about it. He shook my hand. We talked a little
(14:44):
about horse racing, and he never said anything negative about it.
That's a real cool cat.
Speaker 8 (14:50):
Yeah. I mean he's a real people person. You know.
He's like an old school politician that like really loves
working a room and loves charming and talking to everybody
and asking them their story. There aren't a lot of
people like that anymore, you know. That's like a you know,
Bill Clinton is like that. Joe Biden was like that
(15:10):
thirty years ago. You know, somebody who just loves working
the room. And that's Antonio Viragosa still, and nobody was
many decades now.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
And nobody was better at that than Barack Obama.
Speaker 8 (15:22):
Nobody, you know, I would I would disagree with that
a bit. I think Barack Obama had a bit of
an elevated view of himself and I don't know if
he loved all the people around it. It was always interesting.
You know, remember Joe Biden was like a different person
back then when he was VP in terms of his
mental place and everything. And when the two of them,
(15:45):
I remember watching this as a reporter at the time,
being around them would work a rope line. Barack Obama
would move very fast, and Joe Biden wanted to hear
every person's story and he'd scream, Okay, Joe, let's go,
let's go, Joe, let's go. Come on, and like Joe,
which just so much time getting into everybody's details.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
That's great, buddy. I hope you and your parents have
a nice weekend. I hope you can enjoy the three
day weekend while also remembering the beautiful men and women
who gave their lives for this great country of ours.
Speaker 8 (16:17):
Yeah, I mean, we have a moment remembering them this
week on the issue is and it's so important to
remember them. And another thing I have this tonight is
a commentary about the anti Semitic attacks that happened this week,
and you know, a sort of reminder for all of
us to stand up against that too, which is happening
in our country. But you know that we are so
(16:37):
blessed because of those men and women, and we're so lucky,
and we don't do enough to remember them, and so
I hope people do take a moment to read their
stories and to think about how good we have it
because of them.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
I think you're right, buddy, God bless your family. We'll
talk to you next week, and thanks for coming on.
Speaker 8 (16:56):
Ding Dong with you, big Doong with you.
Speaker 9 (16:59):
Listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
It is the Conway Show, Friday before the big Memorial
Day weekend, and everybody seems to be leaving town. This
building's empty. I'm looking across at other office buildings here
in Burbank. Everyone's gone except me. I decided to stay
and do my job. Krozier came in today, so did Bellio,
(17:28):
Angel and Steph Fuge a full crew today because we
knew there'd be a lot of people in their car
and they would be tuning into KFI to find out
what freeways are closed, what's open, what's congested, Why they're closed,
why they're congested. We are here to lay that on you.
(17:48):
Some sad news coming out about Billy Joel. Billy Joel
one of the great songwriters, one of the Great Performers
and Krozier. You got to see him, what almost a
year ago or I say it was like a year
and a half ag year and a half ago, and
you said, uh, he was not so good, huh.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
I called it at the time that there were a
couple of he came out from behind the piano at
one point, came out in front of the stage and
he grabbed the microphone stand, which he does a lot,
but when he was doing it, he was, you know,
kind of moving around and kind of trying to twirl
the mic stand. I pointed out at the time, I said,
he doesn't look completely okay. His balance seems a little
bit off, and not like from like drinking or anything
(18:27):
like that, because I don't know that he drinks anymore,
but he just seemed a little bit physically off. And
since then, every interview I've seen with him, there was
kind of something there. So it really didn't surprise me.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
But you know, I remember you saying that that that
it was too big of an arena to play in.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
Yeah, for one thing, Yeah, he should be in small arenas,
intimate stuff because that's where he'd kill.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
And he may never play again. Yeah, you know, I mean,
he's got a lot of physical challenge, but he is
attributing a lot of it to the concerts. So I
think if he did go to a smaller, more intimate,
quieter arenas, he might be Okay, Yeah, maybe that's the
the key. I hope he does. Really one of my
favorite people in the world.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Tonight, a major health scare for legendary rocker Billy Joel,
forcing him to cancel his entire tour. Joel, who was
set to kick off a seventeenth show summer tour starting
in Pittsburgh in July, revealing he's been diagnosed with normal
pressure hydrocephalus.
Speaker 8 (19:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Hydrocephalus is bad. My dad had that. It is really Yeah.
It's a lot of water on the brain. And what
they do is they put a stint. They put a
little tube in there and the tube goes down into
your stomach and that's how you sort of evacuate the
water and the moisture from your brain. But they've got
to get that exactly right. If they if too much,
(19:49):
if they bring you know, too much moisture gets out,
then the brain. They have to adjust it with a magnet,
almost like turning a sprinkler on and you have to
have adjusted just right in order to survive for a
long time. And my dad had a lot of complications
with that. Man a lot of complications.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Hydrocephalus a rare brain disorder where excess spinal fluid connects
deep inside the brain, causing problems with cognitive function like thinking, reasoning,
and even walking.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Generally, this is.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
A condition of older people between seventy and seventy nine.
It's felt to a fact about zero point two percent
of the population, so very rare.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Just the five time Grammy winner, who holds the records
for most shows and most consecutive shows at New York's
Madison Square Garden, announced a four month break from touring
back in February after he lost his balance and fell
during this show in Connecticut, writing at the time, while
(20:48):
I regret postponing any shows, my health must come first, lindsay.
Experts say this is considered treatable and reversible. Joel says
he is thankful for the care he's getting and looks
forward to hitting the stay as soon as he can.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Yeah, that would be great if he could come out,
come out of this on the other side and perform again.
I hope he does.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
I know he did. He did a Vegas residency with
Elton John. He should just do that, man.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
It should be a small residency, no pressure, not in
the volume. Isn't as big of a deal because all
of that, I think, I think he even said that
a lot of that attributed to it.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Yeah, and he's and he can still make a lot
of money. I mean people would pay seven hundred bucks
in a small, little arena. Absolutely, maybe I'll do that,
that's possible. But that is a really cool dude. Man.
I remember when I was in college. My first year
in college, I got into that Glasshouses album and I
played it every single day. And when I when I
(21:43):
drove to Cleveland to go see my grandparents, like a
like a like every college stud does. They leave on Friday,
they go stay with their grandparents and they go back
to school on Monday. That was me. That was me,
and I did it almost every weekend. It's a three
and a half four hour drive, and I played that
album all the way to my grandparents' house and then
(22:03):
all the way back to college every single time.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
The Stranger, fifty Second Street, all incredible albums.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Yeah, that is what a great great man I hope
he pulls through. God bless that Billy Joe.
Speaker 9 (22:15):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
It is the Friday before Memorial Day weekend. People are
on the road, getting away, enjoying themselves, and today happens
to be May twenty third. My twenty first anniversary. Twenty first,

this long Yeah, I'm twenty one year to her in
for the long run here.
Speaker 5 (22:53):

I'm not going to do all of them here, but

Really yeah, really going for it.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Yeah, it's you keep things fresh. That's exactly right. Just
get brass knuckles and punch, just punch each other in
the face for twenty minutes. Are you doing anything romantic.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
You're a bit of a romance guy.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah, I mean I always look, I don't want to
go through the whole list again, but I've had girlfriends
in the past, you know, break up with me. It's
usually how it ends. And I always wanted to improve myself,
you know, I always wanted to say, hey, okay, you
know it didn't work out. But what did I do
(23:52):
that you know that you didn't like?
Speaker 5 (23:54):
Oh, I respect that. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I wanted to learn, you know, I want to just
you know, spend three years and not learn anything.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Well, clearly that's how you became this fabulous husband of
twenty one years.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Maybe maybe, but so I said. And it all came
down to three issues that women had with me in
the past, and it was amazing, Like every relationship I
was in, they said either one, two or all three
of them.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
And did they ring true for you?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Maybe? The first one was that I spend way too
much money on women, that I'm always like buying them
things and taking the nice places and just money, money, money, money,
spending way too much so annoying. Yeah, yeah, I know
a lot of people, a lot of women get turned
off with then. And then the second thing is I
was too romantic, you know, always with the candles, the flowers, vacations, impromptu,
(24:46):
you know, you know, spontaneity, rose petals. The whole thing
was so I spent too much money. It was too romantic.
Then the third one, which they really hated, was when
she said can we talk. I got really excited about that.
I would put on a pot of coffee. I'd kick
(25:06):
my shoes off, sit Indian style on the couch or
crisscross apple sauce with a pillow on my lap, and
a pot of coffee and just hope that that went
on for eight or nine hours that talk about what
I should improve with my life. So that those are
the three complaints I got, and I seem to have
(25:27):
like learned, I guess in the past. You know, so
I've shut everything down, and here I am married twenty
one years. Twenty one years. I think I have the
longest running marriage in my family. I don't think anybody
and I think right now I have the longest running marriage.
I'd have to think about it, but I think I do. Huh,
(25:50):
of anybody in my family. That's pretty cool. Kind of
a brag, Huh. It is a huge brag. You should
be proud of that. Thank you very much, thank thank no.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
Thank you Ben example to us all.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Thank you. Uh, marriage is great. I couldn't imagine, you know,
I don't know how guys do that where they you know,
they take off and then they sit across from the
table at Mortz Delhi or Jerry's Deli with a girl
I've never met before, and they go through the dating process.
I go, you went to Birmingham. Oh my mom went
(26:23):
to Birmingham. Oh really, did she know the Anderson's. Yeah,
they they They used to live near Arco. Guest say, yeah, yeah,
Bergen's Arco. Oh that's great. I used to get my
gas from Bergen's Arco. He was right near I enjoy bagel.
That's exactly my dad loved. I enjoy bagel. Oh that's great.
He was right next to the thirty one flavors. Oh
my mom she used to send us in his kids
and that thirty one flavors and ask if the ice
(26:44):
cream was hard. Oh, we love doing that with the mom. Yeah,
then we old Alterito didn't see that. We love that,
you know that that whole run. I don't think I
could do that. I think if anything happened when I
wasn't married anymore. I don't think I could crank it
up again. I don't think so. You don't.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
You wouldn't be doing dating apps.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I don't think.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
No.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I can't imagine. It's a different world. I can't imagine
to blame you. Yeah, you know, you picked somebody up
and you instantly know they hate you. But you got
to do the dance. Girls gotta eat right. I did
have fun on dates. I just I don't. I wasn't
(27:27):
that good at them. You were never like tempted to
just maybe let's just cut this short. We know this thing.
Oh I did that once? Yeah, yeah, I did that one.
What did you do? There was a I was. I
was at a Cafe Cordial, which is a restaurant in
Sherman Oaks. I don't I don't think it's still there anymore,
and was going out this girl. She was very nice,
and I got pasta with cream sauce. What is that
(27:51):
called alfredo? Alfredo? Alfredo is right crazy, you're like Italian.
I got the pasta Alfredo or fed Genie Alfredo, whatever
it was, and the waiter drops it off and my
date said, and she like like winced, like her back
(28:11):
was hurting. I said okay, and she goes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
she had that. She goes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm
but I had this huge, huge pimple on my back.
Oh I'm not I'm not asking you. And she said,
about twenty minutes before you picked me up, my dad
popped it.
Speaker 5 (28:32):
Oh, come on tell her.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
I was eating I was eating Alfredo sauce while this
conversation was going on, and I said, you gotta be
effing kidding me. And she goes, she goes, your mom
or dad doesn't pop your pimples. I'm like, wait a minute,
I'm not asking you. Wait a minute, a minute. She
may not have asked me that, but she did bring
that up, that her dad popped this big ass pimple
(28:55):
on her back.
Speaker 5 (28:56):
So you didn't do the lady in the tramp noodle.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I said, look, you drove here, I drove here. Let's
just call it.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Did you honestly you said that after she told you
that I was done.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
Did it hit her down in the face? U?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
It may have. I think he wears the glasses though,
the protective glasses like I don't goggles goggles, my head
ski goggles. I got those all popped up.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
Yeah, what's on a poncho?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
It was rough man bag laid that on me right
as my pasta got there.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Do you think when she drove home she was like,
I shouldn't have told him the pimple story.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
No, I think the exact opposite, calling your dad, Yeah,
I got a free meal out of that idiot, and
then yeah, the pimple story. Oh you went with that?
Speaker 4 (29:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (29:46):
Yeah, So you think she was trying to shake you off.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
I think she was just out, you know, why else
would she tell me that?
Speaker 5 (29:52):
As as soon as the food got there, She's like,
I got the food, Now I can say whatever I want.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I'm about to take my first bite. Oh, I got
this big ass pimple at my dad. Great, that's great.
I don't know what happened or I never realized, sort
of like lost contact with her. Maybe she was on
doctor pimple popper and you know, joined herself.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
I don't know, intentionally not washing to get more.
Speaker 1 (30:20):

five News Whip. And since it was Bellio's idea fifteen
(00:38):
years ago, let's start with Bellio. What's going on out
there that we should know about Bellio?
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Well, according to a new report from wallet Hub, twenty
five of the of thirty least affordable cities in the
entire country are right here in California.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Whew.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Can you guess the top of the list.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Okay, the most affordable or the most expensive? Least affordable?
Least affordable? Okay, most expensive? Yes, all right, let's sEH
Marin Count Marin. Is that on the list? San Francisco,
it's Santa Barbara. Santa Barbara's the most expensive.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Where homes average a jaw dropping thirteen hundred per square
foot compared to compared to Flint, Michigan, where it's just
sixty one dollars per square foot. Santa Monica isn't far behind,
with twelve hundred dollars per square foot in Los Angeles,
San Francisco, San Jose, and San Diego are all on
the list. Zillo says you need to make around two
(01:32):
hundred and ninety seven thousand dollars a year to afford
a home in California with just ten percent down and
if you're eyeing San Jose, that number jumps to over
five hundred thousand. Even with a twenty percent down payment,
you still need to make about four hundred and twenty
five thousand eight.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Wow, all right, you got to you gotta you gotta
have it going on to live up there.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Even when you got it going on, it isn't.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Enough, all right, So you don't consider I mean, you
would have to earn.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I think a lot of those homes up there, our
people have been there for forty fifty sixty.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
Years, generational homes.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
Yeah, yeah, I think that's what's going on there, all right, Crozier,
what's going on in the world.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Bob, Well, hummingbird feeders are speeding up evolution.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
Anna's hummingbird is a common species here in southern California,
but new research says artificial hummingbird feeders have allowed them
to expand up to the northern end of the state.
Hummingbood bird feeders have been around since roughly nineteen hundred,
but they really took off after World War II, and
by the nineteen fifties hummingbirds were noticeably different from the
nineteen thirties or about ten generations of birds. Their beaks
(02:36):
have also dramatically changed in size and shape. They've gotten
longer and larger to slurp up more nectar from the
artificial ones. It's like having a large spoon to eat with.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Okay.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
The change was more pronounced than areas where feeders were dense,
but in birds that lived in colder area up north,
the opposite thing was happening and their beaks went shorter
and smaller, animal experts says. Experts say it shows evolution
and action. Male umming birds have also developed pointier and
sharper beaks wow, which often often indicates aggressiveness, and researchers say, well,
(03:06):
anyone who has a feeder knows that hummingbirds, especially male
humming birds, fight like crazy.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Okay, I didn't know that we have two humming bird feeders.
So I guess I'm helping out, you know, the the
move up north. You are, you know, supplying him down
here down south so they can have the energy to
move up north. Yeah. Yeah, I like the hummingbird feeders.
I've seen some people put that ring on that looks
like a flower and there's nectar in there and they'll
(03:33):
land on your finger. I'm not quite there yet.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
Have you seen Kearn Shart from Coast Yes, her poster things.
Oh yeah, she sticks the one in her mouth and
she's got a little camera there and they come right
up to her lips.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
It's unbelievable. All right, Angel Martinez, what's happening out in
the world.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
So you know we've all heard of ozembic face, right,
remember that you're looking kind of like, you know, I
don't know, losing the fountain face after taking ozempic. Well,
now there's ozembic teeth. And what's happening is it's an
unofficial term so far, and it's something that's being noticed
(04:13):
in when people go in for their dental exams. There's
no scientific connection yet or scientific evidence yet that ozempic
is causing these problems. But what dentists are finding is
that people who are taking drugs like ozempic are coming
down with more decaying teeth, bad breath, and gum disease. God,
(04:37):
And so they're connecting that with one of the side
effects of ozempic, which is it since it slows down
your digestion, it also stops your body from producing saliva,
and so it can dehydrate you. And saliva is actually
your body's natural way to clean its own teeth. So
(04:58):
your mouth is dry, You've got you know, dry mouth,
your breath stinks, and you're thirsty, so drinks.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
So and we're relatively new with this ozempic. Oh yeah,
you know, this thing has come out what a year
maybe two years ago, three years ago, and we're having
all these problems. Can you imagine what these problems will
be like in forty years, like you know, three or
four generations or two or three generations of people.
Speaker 6 (05:25):
All the other side effects and things that we're going
to find out that happens from long term use of
these types of drugs. I never meant to be used
for weight loss to begin with. But you know, yeah,
but you know what, people will look good, so oh yeah,
they're looking hot.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah, their faces you know, all messed up and their
teeth are gone, but man, they look hot.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Yeah, so just drink some water and you'll be fine.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
There you go. All right, that's Angel Martinez by Steph Fush.
What's going on in the world? Bub Well, we like
ourselves some McDonald's, right, love it? Oh yeah, I'm loving it.
Speaker 7 (05:58):
So they got the new chicken strips coming out called
the Crispy Strips.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
How are they you're trying?
Speaker 7 (06:04):
I have not had them yet, but I might have
to have them this weekend because they're gonna give the
Way give away them for free. What Yeah, so you
can get your hands on some free mccrispy strips.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
But there's a catch.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
You need to enter into Instagram hashtag dip for mccrispy
strips giveaway and tag go fuji.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Oh my god. Yeah, isn't it easier to give them
four dollars? Yeah? Right, so you have to you have
to on social media. You have to.
Speaker 8 (06:37):
You have to.
Speaker 7 (06:37):
Yeah, you have to like post a picture and then
put the hashtag and then tag go fuji.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Okay, are we too loud for belly on? She wanted to.
We had it's all man, She really bangs it out
on that phone. Huh wow, wait turn you three your
mike and I'm the listener. She's all right, excellent. That
is the news whip. If you follow horse racing, a
(07:06):
very good friend of mine, a guy named Ted Ziggenbush.
He gives out the cheat sheet every day. He gives
you his picks. Well, he just nailed the pick five,
the super high five in the last race at sant Nita.
So if we were to put down one hundred and
twenty dollars, right, and so me, Krozier, Angel Bellio and
Steph fuch what is that? Five people? So we each
(07:28):
put up by, you know, twenty five dollars and we'd
get close. So we'd all put up twenty five dollars
and we boxed the the numbers three, four, five, six, seven.
We would have hit and we would have all been
sharing thirty two hundred dollars right now, and we had
all been very happy. But we didn't play it because
(07:51):
we're working. So thirty two hundred dollars divided by five,
we all would have made six hundred and forty dollars.
Does that name ring a bell? That number ring a bell?
Six hundred and forty dollars. We all would have been
going home today six hundred and forty dollars richer. But
we didn't do it because we're workaholics and we're committed
(08:11):
to this company, and we did not go to the
racetrack instead of working today. But we would have hit
thirty two hundred dollars. Who that was the super high
five at Sanity, I'd be sweet. Yeah, it's actually thirty
one ninety and thirty cents, but we would have figured
that out.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
We're gonna have an update of what's going on the
seventy one northbound when we come back.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, seventy one jam My daughter just texted me.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
She's in it.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Oh, she's in that traffic jam. Yeah, oh no northbound.
Huh I believe Ah, that's horrible. Okay, welcome back, and
you'll hear an update on the seventy one freeway.
Speaker 9 (08:49):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
The problem that we talked about earlier on the seventy
one freeway, it's still closed. Krozier his daughters all involved
with that stuff. He just told me they're flying now.
Oh good good, it all opened up. Woo Okay, But
what happened earlier this morning. Let me have the cops
explained it to you. They do a much better job
than I could possibly This.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Morning, at approximately eleven thirty hours, the California Higher Patrols
Inland Communications Center received numerous calls of a female pedestrian
right shoulder of SR. Seventy one. They immediately dispatched an officer.
He immediately encountered the pedestrian. She was armed with a knife.
The pedestrian advanced towards the officer, at which time an
officer involved shooting occurred. The suspect was struck one time.
(09:40):
Officers immediately rendered aid and she was transferred to a
local hospital with a non life threatening injury. Our officers
were unharmed.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Yeah, okay, so somebody has lost it and approached the
cops with a knife. That always is met with a
radical response, So good morning people for thirty years, don't
do that when when you're pulled over by the cops,
they want one hundred percent order. Remember that they want
one hundred percent order, And when you have a knife
(10:13):
and you're walking towards them, you're out of order and
you could get shot, you could get killed. Don't do it.
Not a good way to go, all right, Alex Michaelson
as whether it's Alex.
Speaker 8 (10:24):
Hi you bob ding dong with you?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Ding dong with you? Young man? Hey? Are you a
big Memorial Day guy? Do you fly out and do
stuff or surf or play tennis or pickleball or something.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
I'd like to try to go to the beach this weekend, hopefully.
I'm actually supposed to play pickleball with my one of
my friends, which I've never really played. Do you play pickleball?
Are you into that?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Not only do I not play, but I look down
on people who do.
Speaker 8 (10:54):
Do you why because you're a tennis snub or what's
your deal?
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I just feel like it's a It's a really simple
game that anyone can really do, and there's not really
much skill in it. And the best pickleball player in
the world is pretty close to the worst pickleball player
in the world.
Speaker 8 (11:14):
Yeah, there's my new You've got no You've got no
respect for the game. Have you ever tried it?
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Well? No, but I've looked at it and it seems
like like I looked the best. If I were to
play Michael Jordan in basketball, i'd get be twenty to nothing,
fifty things, one hundred and nothing, whatever. The score was, right.
But if I played pickleball, and I've never played before,
I think I could hold my own against a lot
of people.
Speaker 8 (11:40):
Well that's maybe that's why it's so popular, right, because
people feel like it's inclusive, right, and that's it's the
most popular thing. Yeah. Right, But most of the Americans
are not great athletes. That's that's where we're at as
a country right now.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
That's my point. They're bsing you into buying these rackets
and these balls, into thinking, hey, you're good at the
sport and you're not.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
So pickleball is just America's ego boost.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
That's exactly right. It's one hundred percent. It's one hundred percent.
You'll you'll you'll leave pickleball today and you're like, oh,
I got to buy a racket. I gotta buy my
pickleball clothes, I gotta buy my pickleball balls. I gotta
buy all this pickleball stuff. And then you'll go in
the closet in two weeks. You'll never play again.
Speaker 8 (12:18):
All right, I'll report backs. I can tell you how it.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
Was, all right, what I I know you're a big guy,
you know, celebrity and political guy, and you got this
big show every single Friday called The Issue Is Is
this no exception?
Speaker 8 (12:33):
Well, yeah, we never really get a week off, that's right, unfortunately,
but yeah, see we've got to We've got another show
this week. This week we're talking to Antonio Vira Goosa,
the former mayor of Los Angeles who's running for governor
of California. And he kind of made some news this
week because you know, there's this new book out, Original Sin,
all about you know, Joe Biden's mental decline and how
(12:54):
everybody around him seemed to cover it up for many years.
And you know one of the people, yeah, well that's
that's you know they did. As a book makes that
very clear if you read it. It's a good book.
It's interesting. And you know Kamala Harris, who made a
big deal about the fact that she would, you know,
the last person in the room with him on the
(13:14):
big decisions and was around him and having lunch with him,
and you know, talked about how close she was with him.
So did you not see it or did you not
tell people about it? Or was this all okay? And
so now Antonio is potentially running against Kamala Harris for governor.
So he's saying, what's the deal, Kamala Harris, what did
you know when? And why didn't you? Why did you
(13:35):
say anything? And then he's also including in that group
Javier Besserra, who was a member of the cabinet, the
Secretary of Health and Human Services, but who was not
necessarily known for his close relationship with Joe Biden. If
you remember, when Xavier Bessera was introduced for the role,
he called it the Secretary of Education and Health and
said his name was Favier Bacaria. So maybe that was,
(13:55):
you know, there was a sign then that everything wasn't
going great for Uncle Joe.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
I took some shots at Antonio Vira Goosa, never on
a personal level, but only, you know, because of the
way he mismanaged the city of Los Angeles. And I
said about him one day on the radio, I said,
you know, he's done more damage to the city of
La than al Qaeda has, and if you think about it,
it's probably true. So I'm at the racetrack one day
(14:23):
and one of my stupid ass friends says, hey, I
want you to meet somebody, And I walk up to
the table and Antonio via Gosa and he goes, hey,
this is Conway's on KFI and he goes, oh, I
heard what you said about me on KFI. And I said, ah,
you do your job. I do mine. And he laughed
and he never had like a negative thing to say
about it. He shook my hand. We talked a little
(14:44):
about horse racing, and he never said anything negative about it.
That's a real cool cat.
Speaker 8 (14:50):
Yeah. I mean he's a real people person. You know.
He's like an old school politician that like really loves
working a room and loves charming and talking to everybody
and asking them their story. There aren't a lot of
people like that anymore, you know. That's like a you know,
Bill Clinton is like that. Joe Biden was like that
(15:10):
thirty years ago. You know, somebody who just loves working
the room. And that's Antonio Viragosa still, and nobody was
many decades now.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
And nobody was better at that than Barack Obama.
Speaker 8 (15:22):
Nobody, you know, I would I would disagree with that
a bit. I think Barack Obama had a bit of
an elevated view of himself and I don't know if
he loved all the people around it. It was always interesting.
You know, remember Joe Biden was like a different person
back then when he was VP in terms of his
mental place and everything. And when the two of them,
(15:45):
I remember watching this as a reporter at the time,
being around them would work a rope line. Barack Obama
would move very fast, and Joe Biden wanted to hear
every person's story and he'd scream, Okay, Joe, let's go,
let's go, Joe, let's go. Come on, and like Joe,
which just so much time getting into everybody's details.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
That's great, buddy. I hope you and your parents have
a nice weekend. I hope you can enjoy the three
day weekend while also remembering the beautiful men and women
who gave their lives for this great country of ours.
Speaker 8 (16:17):
Yeah, I mean, we have a moment remembering them this
week on the issue is and it's so important to
remember them. And another thing I have this tonight is
a commentary about the anti Semitic attacks that happened this week,
and you know, a sort of reminder for all of
us to stand up against that too, which is happening
in our country. But you know that we are so
(16:37):
blessed because of those men and women, and we're so lucky,
and we don't do enough to remember them, and so
I hope people do take a moment to read their
stories and to think about how good we have it
because of them.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
I think you're right, buddy, God bless your family. We'll
talk to you next week, and thanks for coming on.
Speaker 8 (16:56):
Ding Dong with you, big Doong with you.
Speaker 9 (16:59):
Listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
It is the Conway Show, Friday before the big Memorial
Day weekend, and everybody seems to be leaving town. This
building's empty. I'm looking across at other office buildings here
in Burbank. Everyone's gone except me. I decided to stay
and do my job. Krozier came in today, so did Bellio,
(17:28):
Angel and Steph Fuge a full crew today because we
knew there'd be a lot of people in their car
and they would be tuning into KFI to find out
what freeways are closed, what's open, what's congested, Why they're closed,
why they're congested. We are here to lay that on you.
(17:48):
Some sad news coming out about Billy Joel. Billy Joel
one of the great songwriters, one of the Great Performers
and Krozier. You got to see him, what almost a
year ago or I say it was like a year
and a half ag year and a half ago, and
you said, uh, he was not so good, huh.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
I called it at the time that there were a
couple of he came out from behind the piano at
one point, came out in front of the stage and
he grabbed the microphone stand, which he does a lot,
but when he was doing it, he was, you know,
kind of moving around and kind of trying to twirl
the mic stand. I pointed out at the time, I said,
he doesn't look completely okay. His balance seems a little
bit off, and not like from like drinking or anything
(18:27):
like that, because I don't know that he drinks anymore,
but he just seemed a little bit physically off. And
since then, every interview I've seen with him, there was
kind of something there. So it really didn't surprise me.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
But you know, I remember you saying that that that
it was too big of an arena to play in.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
Yeah, for one thing, Yeah, he should be in small arenas,
intimate stuff because that's where he'd kill.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
And he may never play again. Yeah, you know, I mean,
he's got a lot of physical challenge, but he is
attributing a lot of it to the concerts. So I
think if he did go to a smaller, more intimate,
quieter arenas, he might be Okay, Yeah, maybe that's the
the key. I hope he does. Really one of my
favorite people in the world.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Tonight, a major health scare for legendary rocker Billy Joel,
forcing him to cancel his entire tour. Joel, who was
set to kick off a seventeenth show summer tour starting
in Pittsburgh in July, revealing he's been diagnosed with normal
pressure hydrocephalus.
Speaker 8 (19:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Hydrocephalus is bad. My dad had that. It is really Yeah.
It's a lot of water on the brain. And what
they do is they put a stint. They put a
little tube in there and the tube goes down into
your stomach and that's how you sort of evacuate the
water and the moisture from your brain. But they've got
to get that exactly right. If they if too much,
(19:49):
if they bring you know, too much moisture gets out,
then the brain. They have to adjust it with a magnet,
almost like turning a sprinkler on and you have to
have adjusted just right in order to survive for a
long time. And my dad had a lot of complications
with that. Man a lot of complications.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Hydrocephalus a rare brain disorder where excess spinal fluid connects
deep inside the brain, causing problems with cognitive function like thinking, reasoning,
and even walking.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Generally, this is.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
A condition of older people between seventy and seventy nine.
It's felt to a fact about zero point two percent
of the population, so very rare.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
Just the five time Grammy winner, who holds the records
for most shows and most consecutive shows at New York's
Madison Square Garden, announced a four month break from touring
back in February after he lost his balance and fell
during this show in Connecticut, writing at the time, while
(20:48):
I regret postponing any shows, my health must come first, lindsay.
Experts say this is considered treatable and reversible. Joel says
he is thankful for the care he's getting and looks
forward to hitting the stay as soon as he can.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Yeah, that would be great if he could come out,
come out of this on the other side and perform again.
I hope he does.
Speaker 5 (21:06):
I know he did. He did a Vegas residency with
Elton John. He should just do that, man.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 5 (21:12):
It should be a small residency, no pressure, not in
the volume. Isn't as big of a deal because all
of that, I think, I think he even said that
a lot of that attributed to it.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Yeah, and he's and he can still make a lot
of money. I mean people would pay seven hundred bucks
in a small, little arena. Absolutely, maybe I'll do that,
that's possible. But that is a really cool dude. Man.
I remember when I was in college. My first year
in college, I got into that Glasshouses album and I
played it every single day. And when I when I
(21:43):
drove to Cleveland to go see my grandparents, like a
like a like every college stud does. They leave on Friday,
they go stay with their grandparents and they go back
to school on Monday. That was me. That was me,
and I did it almost every weekend. It's a three
and a half four hour drive, and I played that
album all the way to my grandparents' house and then
(22:03):
all the way back to college every single time.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
The Stranger, fifty Second Street, all incredible albums.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Yeah, that is what a great great man I hope
he pulls through. God bless that Billy Joe.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
Yeah, it's you keep things fresh. That's exactly right. Just
get brass knuckles and punch, just punch each other in
the face for twenty minutes. Are you doing anything romantic.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
You're a bit of a romance guy.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah, I mean I always look, I don't want to
go through the whole list again, but I've had girlfriends
in the past, you know, break up with me. It's
usually how it ends. And I always wanted to improve myself,
you know, I always wanted to say, hey, okay, you
know it didn't work out. But what did I do
(23:52):
that you know that you didn't like?
Speaker 5 (23:54):
Oh, I respect that. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I wanted to learn, you know, I want to just
you know, spend three years and not learn anything.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Well, clearly that's how you became this fabulous husband of
twenty one years.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
Maybe maybe, but so I said. And it all came
down to three issues that women had with me in
the past, and it was amazing, Like every relationship I
was in, they said either one, two or all three
of them.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
And did they ring true for you?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Maybe? The first one was that I spend way too
much money on women, that I'm always like buying them
things and taking the nice places and just money, money, money, money,
spending way too much so annoying. Yeah, yeah, I know
a lot of people, a lot of women get turned
off with then. And then the second thing is I
was too romantic, you know, always with the candles, the flowers, vacations, impromptu,
(24:46):
you know, you know, spontaneity, rose petals. The whole thing
was so I spent too much money. It was too romantic.
Then the third one, which they really hated, was when
she said can we talk. I got really excited about that.
I would put on a pot of coffee. I'd kick
(25:06):
my shoes off, sit Indian style on the couch or
crisscross apple sauce with a pillow on my lap, and
a pot of coffee and just hope that that went
on for eight or nine hours that talk about what
I should improve with my life. So that those are
the three complaints I got, and I seem to have
(25:27):
like learned, I guess in the past. You know, so
I've shut everything down, and here I am married twenty
one years. Twenty one years. I think I have the
longest running marriage in my family. I don't think anybody
and I think right now I have the longest running marriage.
I'd have to think about it, but I think I do. Huh,
(25:50):
of anybody in my family. That's pretty cool. Kind of
a brag, Huh. It is a huge brag. You should
be proud of that. Thank you very much, thank thank no.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
Thank you Ben example to us all.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Thank you. Uh, marriage is great. I couldn't imagine, you know,
I don't know how guys do that where they you know,
they take off and then they sit across from the
table at Mortz Delhi or Jerry's Deli with a girl
I've never met before, and they go through the dating process.
I go, you went to Birmingham. Oh my mom went
(26:23):
to Birmingham. Oh really, did she know the Anderson's. Yeah,
they they They used to live near Arco. Guest say, yeah, yeah,
Bergen's Arco. Oh that's great. I used to get my
gas from Bergen's Arco. He was right near I enjoy bagel.
That's exactly my dad loved. I enjoy bagel. Oh that's great.
He was right next to the thirty one flavors. Oh
my mom she used to send us in his kids
and that thirty one flavors and ask if the ice
(26:44):
cream was hard. Oh, we love doing that with the mom. Yeah,
then we old Alterito didn't see that. We love that,
you know that that whole run. I don't think I
could do that. I think if anything happened when I
wasn't married anymore. I don't think I could crank it
up again. I don't think so. You don't.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
You wouldn't be doing dating apps.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
I don't think.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
No.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
I can't imagine. It's a different world. I can't imagine
to blame you. Yeah, you know, you picked somebody up
and you instantly know they hate you. But you got
to do the dance. Girls gotta eat right. I did
have fun on dates. I just I don't. I wasn't
(27:27):
that good at them. You were never like tempted to
just maybe let's just cut this short. We know this thing.
Oh I did that once? Yeah, yeah, I did that one.
What did you do? There was a I was. I
was at a Cafe Cordial, which is a restaurant in
Sherman Oaks. I don't I don't think it's still there anymore,
and was going out this girl. She was very nice,
and I got pasta with cream sauce. What is that
(27:51):
called alfredo? Alfredo? Alfredo is right crazy, you're like Italian.
I got the pasta Alfredo or fed Genie Alfredo, whatever
it was, and the waiter drops it off and my
date said, and she like like winced, like her back
(28:11):
was hurting. I said okay, and she goes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
she had that. She goes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm
but I had this huge, huge pimple on my back.
Oh I'm not I'm not asking you. And she said,
about twenty minutes before you picked me up, my dad
popped it.
Speaker 5 (28:32):
Oh, come on tell her.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
I was eating I was eating Alfredo sauce while this
conversation was going on, and I said, you gotta be
effing kidding me. And she goes, she goes, your mom
or dad doesn't pop your pimples. I'm like, wait a minute,
I'm not asking you. Wait a minute, a minute. She
may not have asked me that, but she did bring
that up, that her dad popped this big ass pimple
(28:55):
on her back.
Speaker 5 (28:56):
So you didn't do the lady in the tramp noodle.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I said, look, you drove here, I drove here. Let's
just call it.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Did you honestly you said that after she told you
that I was done.
Speaker 6 (29:09):

Speaker 1 (29:12):
It may have. I think he wears the glasses though,
the protective glasses like I don't goggles goggles, my head
ski goggles. I got those all popped up.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
Yeah, what's on a poncho?
Speaker 1 (29:28):
It was rough man bag laid that on me right
as my pasta got there.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Do you think when she drove home she was like,
I shouldn't have told him the pimple story.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
No, I think the exact opposite, calling your dad, Yeah,
I got a free meal out of that idiot, and
then yeah, the pimple story. Oh you went with that?
Speaker 4 (29:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (29:46):
Yeah, So you think she was trying to shake you off.

would she tell me that?

As as soon as the food got there, She's like,
I got the food, Now I can say whatever I want.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
I'm about to take my first bite. Oh, I got
this big ass pimple at my dad. Great, that's great.
I don't know what happened or I never realized, sort
of like lost contact with her. Maybe she was on
doctor pimple popper and you know, joined herself.
