Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KMF I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Got
a little crime going on, right? What would LA be
with a little bit of crime happening. I know the
murder rate is way way down. It's lowest it's been
in nearly sixty years, so that's a good sign. But
(00:22):
there are still some mischief makers out there. This comes
from the Midwiltshire area. Homes in the Midwesshire area they're
being broken into. Yep, it's community burglarized by theft cruise.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
That's the newest thing in LA.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
It's a crew five six, seven guys come in take
everything you've worked so hard for and you're left with nothing.
And an LAPD officer told me this and I got
to pass along. It's a little scary, but you've got
to be aware of this. They said that about twenty
(00:56):
to fifty percent of the time, if you're robbed, if
you're how is robbed, that the people who did it
are going to come back and rob it again because
they already know the lay of the land, they know
what they missed, and they're going to try to hit
it again.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Because it was especially if it was easy.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
And that happened in Woodland Hills where a guy was
robbed and then they found the four or five straight
A students that did that, and then an hour later
they were robbed again twice in one night. And that's
scary as hell because you never know, you know, if
(01:33):
they're just looking for stuff or if they're going to
hurt or kill somebody. That happening in seeing them off
of White Oak where a couple was killed in their
home when they when they confronted the guy robbing, and
you never know whether the guy is going to wipe
you out or not. So here's the Midwelshire homes. You
(01:53):
got to be aware of this. There's a cruise out
there that can cause a lot of damage in your life.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Seems like no area, say from Hollywood to the San
Fernando Valley, now here in Midweltshire. Neighbors say mornings to
be done to stop these burglaries. Here are the back
door is kicked in, chattering the glass and leaving behind
a trail of destruction while the family was out of
town in just two days before Christmas.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Oh my god, two days before Christmas.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
That was mine.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Grandma and Grandma, you leave it to me. You just
like took everything.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Oh that poor kid got almighty, you know, Graham and
Grandpa gave a kid something, and now that's gone.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Stealing a young son's Christmas cash and prized Pokemon card
among thousands of dollars in goods and irreplaceable personal items.
Speaker 6 (02:47):
I think they were just targeting jewelry and cash, and
from what we understand, that's kind of been the mo
for a lot of the neighbors that have been hit
in the area.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Emily asked us.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Not, yeah, I like to most of my cash is
at sant Anita. So when they see a twenty two
thousand and six Lincoln Navigator in the driveway and there's
a Santannita hat that I have outside, they know where
(03:17):
the money is. It's not in the house, it's at
the track. And that's why nobody's busted in.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Emily asked us not to show her face on camera.
She feels frustrated, frightened, and violated.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
I think it was super traumatizing for especially my son.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Of course it is. You know, these kids are traumatized
sometimes for life. They don't feel secure in their own home.
This does a lot of damage, not just the monetary
stuff that they've taken from the house, but the sense
of security in your house. You never feel the same.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
And especially because it was around Christmas, then this thieves
can't cutting the cord to the camera then toss it
into the swimming pool.
Speaker 7 (04:01):
I went into a room by a room and saw,
like the master bedroom, the bed was completely taken apart.
Speaker 8 (04:07):
The mattress was on its side.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
This happened just down the street from Emily's house last Thursday.
Again the neighbor asking us not to reveal her identity.
Speaker 9 (04:16):
They took watches, laptops, cash.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
Finding now through social media multiple homes have been hit
in the same vicinity.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah, it's not really smart to put up anything like
watches or you know, cash on the internet. And also
you've got to be very careful when you start posting
pictures of you and your family skiing in Aspen or
Veil or you know, or on a cruise or whatever,
because that is just a big old sign to the
(04:47):
guys that are going to do this that you are
out of town and it's much easier to come in
and take all your stuff.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
It just seems to be so rampant.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Is really disturbing, and they say catching these criminals feels hopeless.
They were completely had to tell Hoodie.
Speaker 10 (05:03):
A math love.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Even with cameras and alarm systems in place, these crooks
know what they're doing.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
But they come in on their prose like they knew
exactly what they do. They took out our motion light
and then backyard they take out our neighbors and they're
pretty high up and hard to get in.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
In addition to police presence, the community hopes neighbors come
together and form an alliance to help stop these burglaries.
Anybody with information should contact police. We're live in Hollywood.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Yeah, there's a lot of people that are pulling their
money together and hiring private security, and that seems to work.
You know, that seems to be a deterrent, especially with
a car going up and down the street with a
yellow light or red lights on it, or just a
security guy that you can call that you know is
on call at night in your neighborhood. Probably worth the
(05:53):
five hundred bucks a month that you spend on it.
You know, if you get fifty houses in your neighborhood
and everyone's spending you know, three or four hundred bucks
a month you can pay a guy to drive around
all night, and that does seem to deter some of
these straight a students. These these crews that are stealing
all your stuff. All right, there's another one. We got
(06:15):
to take a break here when we come back. But
there's another crime up in Seattle at a sports store.
They stole fifty They stole fifty thousand dollars worth of
merchandise and most stores can't afford that. I don't know
if it's insured or not. Maybe it is, but then
if you claim it on your insurance, your insurance is
(06:35):
going to go up, and it just creates a lot
of problems.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
And I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
I've been living in this in la in the Valley
my entire life, with the exception of you know, two
or three years, and I've never seen crime this bad.
You know, the murder rates down, which is great. You know,
hats off to LAPD for that, but they're just they
don't have enough officers to protect the entire city from
(07:04):
these crews. There are a lot of crews in town
that are stealing stuff, and you've got to be careful.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
And every day you wake.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Up where your house hasn't been robbed or you know,
nobody's broken into your car or you know, come in
and take all your taken all your stuff.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
You are lucky.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
You should consider yourself lucky every day you wake up
and you have not been robbed, because they know. These
guys are very sophisticated. They know how to get around
the best alarm systems, the best video cameras, and dogs
aren't even deterrened to them either.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
They're very good at what they do. You got to
give them that.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
So, I don't know, you got to pull your money together,
maybe at least for the time being, and hire some
kind of private security that seems to work.
Speaker 11 (07:50):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
All right, Jersey's stolen from a Seattle pro sport Hearts store.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
What's going on here?
Speaker 12 (08:02):
Urrable generates hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
The rival sports.
Speaker 12 (08:06):
Store is dealing with a big loss ahead of the
big game, So.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
It's not just here, it's everywhere.
Speaker 12 (08:12):
Police say, early yesterday morning, three people broke into Pro
Image Sports, which is right.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Next to the Seahawks home field.
Speaker 12 (08:18):
The masked thieves stole up to fifty thousand dollars worth
of jerseys in just two minutes. The store's owner says
he won't be able to order new merchandise for weeks.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
What the hell's going on.
Speaker 12 (08:29):
Thieves also coust more than two thousand dollars in property damage.
Speaker 10 (08:33):
See here where they cut it. Definitely had a very
high powered bolt cutter. And the cops for even saying
that's how crisp it is definitely was not something that
you just go buy it a home depot.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I don't know how people stay in business. If you're
a business owner, or you own a restaurant, some kind
of sporting good store, card store, or whatever, flower shop,
I don't know how you do it. I don't know
how you get up every morning, open those doors, pay
all your bills, find good employees, pay them and make money.
(09:03):
I don't know how you do it. Hats off to
you if you figured that out, but I have no
idea how anybody does that.
Speaker 10 (09:11):
They knew the section that they went to, went right
over there and got in and out in hurries. So
that a lot of products to sell and a lot
of great fans. So we're gonna try to stay positive
about it.
Speaker 12 (09:20):
The store owner is offering officially licensed Seahawks gear to
anyone with information that leads to an arrest.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
All right, here's a crazy trend here. There's a lot
of men now that are getting that are getting cosmetic surgery.
A lot of guys who are getting their nose, their ears,
their cheeks, their eyes.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Guys are going for it. You know, for a long
long time it was just women.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
And when you see these big BELLYO what are some
of these big makeup stores? Is it Sapharo or Alta
Alta Onephora?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
That's what it is? All the X what is it? NYX,
n y X? Yeah? How do you rattle these off
pretty quickly?
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna say it man, very familiar.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yeah, men have skin too. That's a that's a great slogan,
men have skin too. I love that. I love that.
But you know these Sophora.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
And and uh, these huge stores n Yx is that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
What it was? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Y I think Mac is a big one. That's a
cosmetics right, yeah all Mac. Yeah, Mac is more for
like the models. But those are those stores didn't exist
when I was a kid. It was just a makeup
aisle in a in a dining store. Yeah, right, exactly,
the rewards, the makeup counter, yeah, the makeup counter. But
now it's it's their own superstore. But I wonder in
fifteen years if there's going to be a men's you
(10:50):
know store where there's all kinds of guy, you know,
stuff for guys. Like right now, if you go to Walmart,
there's one tiny little section where you can get deodorant
and and cologne for men, there's like they offer like
three types and that's a wrap on you, like five
different types of shaving cream. I'm you know, and like
(11:12):
brute and all that crap is still around from the
nineteen sixties, nineteen seventies, stetson.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I saw that the other day. Polo my mom, God
bless her, you know, trying to do the right thing.
But when I was in high school, I used to
wear polo because that's what all the kids did.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You throw that crap on's.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
You know, they say everybody's got a different body chemistry,
so different colones or whatever can smell different on different people. Polo,
for whatever reason, it hit with my chemicals.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I'm the same with yeah, same ways.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Like I got more comments, good comments. I was always
very cognizant about that and yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
It was, you know, it was a big Colone guy Belly.
Can we mention this on the air? Does he talk
about it on the air or is this a we
talked about it before?
Speaker 13 (11:56):
We are?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Okay, right, Ray Lopez? Can we talk about that?
Speaker 8 (11:59):
I think he? I think we are.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I think we did.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
But Ray Lopez is like the specialist. He's like a
professional when it comes to cologne.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
That was a bit surprising.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, he has hundreds of bottle.
Speaker 8 (12:11):
Yeah, high end and low end.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Yeah. Yeah. I don't think he's ever told us he
has low end cologne though. I think that's something you
may smelled.
Speaker 14 (12:20):
Oh okay, that's my own personal data.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Okay, well that'll be nice when he comes in tomorrow.
You know, Hey, do I smell low end today?
Speaker 8 (12:32):
You know, just some stuff smells better to you than others.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
There's a men's skincare product and store that I go
told some keels, Is that right?
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:41):
And it's I mean they have women's and men's stuff
as well. I e h l right, yeah yeah, and
it's it's it's really good stuff. I mean, the hair,
skin whatever. It's not like cosmetic or you know, I
think they have a musk.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
So it's not really a cologne, but great.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Yeah, that's about the only thing that they had that
comes in the sort of cologne avenue is their musk,
and that's really good. But otherwise, yeah, I use all
their their products, their skincare products and stuff, and.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
One bottle of cologne should last you a lifetime, you.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
Know, pretty close. Yeah, like your comedy bottle.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Well, yeah, my mom I went to off the college
and she was gonna get me.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I swear to god, steph, wush, I'll break your other arm.
Speaker 8 (13:24):
Whoa, it went dark.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
So I'm going off to college and I and I
can't find or broke the bottle of polo whatever. And
so my mom goes to Broadway or Bullocks and she
they don't have anymore. They just have the one comedy
bottle left the display display one and she bought it.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
That's like bigger than your head.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
It's a gallon. It's bigger than yeah, it's like a
foot and a half tall. And she gave me. He goes, hey,
she goes, I didn't have the smaller size. I'm like,
god almighty. They they didn't have anything other than that,
and it was it was literally like a maybe two
gallons of that. And and that's still it's still got
stuff in there. You still haven't It hasn't moved at all.
(14:16):
You know, the water line is the same as it
was before. But but now guys are going under the knife.
When we come back, we'll talk about that story. It's
a big deal, big deal.
Speaker 11 (14:28):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
David vass Belly I booked a guest for us in
at five forty five. David Vassa is coming out with
us because there's a new rule in baseball and he's
gonna explain what it is. But it has to do
with strikes and balls and how you can challenge the
strike calls or the ball calls, and how many you
(14:56):
get and how and who's how big is the strike zone?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
All that stuff, And I think they measure.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
I'll have to ask David vesay this, but I think
they measure every player before the season starts and manipulate
that box that we all see when we watch baseball.
And you could manipulate that box if you slouch a
little while they're taking the photo of you before the
season starts.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
So it might.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
It might have its kinks and its problems when when
it starts, but you are going to be able to
challenge balls and strikes. And we'll ask Davis at five
point forty five how many of those you get? Speaking
of David Veasse, I'll bet of anybody who works on
this floor that he probably is into The's the first
(15:47):
guy that gets cosmetic surgery for men.
Speaker 8 (15:50):
Oh you think so?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
I think he's a youthful guy and he wants to
keep that and I think he's going to go under
the knife at some point.
Speaker 8 (15:58):
You don't think he wouldn't be one of my first thought?
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Really? Who would you? Who would on this floor be
your first thought?
Speaker 8 (16:06):
Steph?
Speaker 2 (16:07):
You think steph Ouche? Really?
Speaker 8 (16:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Well what he what should he have done? What don't
you like about him?
Speaker 14 (16:12):
No? No, no, no, I just think what I think because
he's into skincare and all that stuff, So I think
he would That's.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Why what would you hit first on him?
Speaker 8 (16:23):
I'm not going there.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeah, I didn't think so. I didn't think so, steph Oush.
I feel bad that she said that. I think you
look great.
Speaker 8 (16:31):
I think he looks great too.
Speaker 14 (16:32):
I'm just saying he because he cares about that stuff.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Have you had anything done yet, Bellio?
Speaker 1 (16:39):
No, No, how vain, It's just perfect the way it is.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Right. That's right, she really is.
Speaker 8 (16:47):
I'm sure he called me grandma earlier.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
He did. No, that's not is that true?
Speaker 14 (16:52):
Because I referred to Chapel Rome ron as Rone Chapel
and he goes, okay, Grandma, watch it a lot.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Of arm breaking around here today. What's going on?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
All right, let's get into this very controversial topic on
this show. Men with cosmetic surgery, facelifts.
Speaker 13 (17:18):
Necklifts, highlifts, mini facelifts.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
It's a growing tread of bookies reading like some kind
of really bad kids book.
Speaker 13 (17:27):
Facelifts, necklifts, ighlifts, mini facelifts.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Read it again, Grandpa.
Speaker 13 (17:33):
It's a growing trend among men of a certain.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Age age, let's find out.
Speaker 13 (17:39):
According to data from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
I bet it's thirty five, and that's when men start
to do this.
Speaker 13 (17:45):
Minimally invasive cosmetic procedures performed on men jumped fifty three
percent over the past decade. But plastic surgery is often
not spoken about, at least amongst men.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Yeah, that's why a lot of guys die of breast
cancer because they don't tell any buddy because it's embarrassing
and they'd rather, you know, just go out with a mystery,
mystery illness.
Speaker 7 (18:08):
There's probably still a stigma around it. A lot more
men are getting work done and then telling that story
of I've just been working out and taking care of myself.
It took some time, Okay, dude, Sure.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
That's what guys do.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
If a guy gets a great result, he denies it
to all of this guy. If a woman gets a
great result, she tells all her girlfriends.
Speaker 13 (18:31):
Doctor Andrew Barnett is this San Francisco based cosmetic surgeon
who's been in the business for over forty years. Barnett
says the lockdown was an eye opening moment for men.
Speaker 9 (18:41):
A lot of people working on laptops, so we had
a dramatic increase in awareness of, hey, I don't look
so good.
Speaker 13 (18:49):
San Francisco is the tech capital of the world, right,
you know.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
I guess, Look, if you're going to do something like this,
it's not there's no shame to it anymore, you know.
I think the only thing that's been around since like
the nineteen sixties that guys do that has become acceptable,
and it has been I think since the nineteen sixties.
Is something like advanced hare, you know, but to get
(19:16):
the eyes done and ears and lips and stuff like that.
You don't want to screw that up because you can
come back and you could look a lot worse than
you did before. And Belly, you've seen this probably in
friends or family or whatever. You know, somebody gets a
lift or a nose job or something and it wasn't
(19:38):
really that good, and you have to put on that
face of oh, you look great, it looks fantastic. And
so I don't know, and it had I don't think
it has to do with the money. I think there
are some really expensive doctors they're not that great, and
some doctors that are reasonably priced that are probably really
good at what they do. So I don't know how
you pick the doctor to do this.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (19:59):
There's a lot of question so you would not do anything.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
I don't think i'd do anything. No, I don't know.
I think I'm gonna ride this out. You know. Let
me ask you, Belly, what should I do first?
Speaker 6 (20:10):
What?
Speaker 2 (20:10):
What? What do you think? It looks so horrible? I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
Maybe you guys, the bags under my eyes, the luggage trunks. No, yeah,
I have a horrible because I don't sleep much, and
I eat a pound of salt before I go to
bed every night, just with a spoon, the entire jar
of Morton's.
Speaker 8 (20:35):
I think you're perfect the way you are.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Thank you, Belly. I appreciate that. But if I wasn't,
what would it do you think?
Speaker 8 (20:41):
Maybe the nose?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Oh my god, now it's the nose.
Speaker 13 (20:44):
How do you notice that the tech industry has contributed.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
To Maybe we could do that, Belly. Let's do that.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Let's find a doctor to do both of us, and
we can both we both finally get our noses done.
Speaker 8 (20:56):
Uh what.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I know, it's such a one way straight I guess, uh.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Needing to look better, especially for men, they're aware of
the fact that they have to remain competitive. It's not
looking old that's the issue. It's the concern of you're
looking irrelevant.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Okay, that's interesting. It's not the age that you're looking irrelevant.
Speaker 9 (21:25):
It's not looking old that's the issue. It's the concern
of you're looking irrelevant.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Oh my god, you imagine somebody's saying that to you.
You just look so I don't know, irrelevant.
Speaker 15 (21:34):
Even though there are laws that protect against treating people
differently based on their age, we understand that there are
probably more opportunities given to someone who looks younger typically.
So I think mentally that probably negatively affects me.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Okay, did you hear that? That's a great commercial? Then
also for advanced there.
Speaker 15 (21:52):
That there are probably more opportunities given to someone who
looks younger typically, So I.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Think mental that's a great that's probably true.
Speaker 15 (22:00):
That probably negatively affects many of those who are middle
aged or even older, and I think that's what leads
people to doctors' offices.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I think he's right. All right, Well, we'll keep following
that story for you. David Vassay is going to come
on next. There's a big change. He's with the Dodgers,
by the way, he's been with the Dodgers for a
long time, and he's so jealous that that Mickey Rojas
hugged me, because he's been with the Dodgers for thirteen
years and Mickey Rojas has never hugged him.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
And he's man, he's in like a white heat of
indignation of just pissed and angry and sour and he's
gonna come on and talk about the new rule in baseball.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's time for Dodger baseball.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
That's my Vince Scully impression.
Speaker 11 (22:43):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Let's get right to it, David Vass with your Los
Angeles Dodgers.
Speaker 16 (22:53):
How you bub I'm doing great, Tim Conway. You know
Miguel Rojas. I saw him on Saturday at Dodger Fest.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Still did he mention me?
Speaker 17 (23:00):
Yeah? He said that hug.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Oh yeah, we'll live forever. Well, I asked him, I said,
I asked Krozier. I said, how long could I hug
Mickey Rojas before it got uncomfortable? And he said three minutes?
Speaker 16 (23:11):
Yeah, Well, he said, uh, just as long as you
guys embraced. That was awkward enough, buddy, he is.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
I'm telling you, I got more excited when he hit
that home run than almost anything in my life, Like
when I was told by my wife that we're gonna
have a baby, and I got pretty excited, but I
never screamed like that.
Speaker 16 (23:31):
Are you saying that home run by Miguel Rojas in
Game seven of the World Series made you scream louder
than Freddie Freeman's walk off Grand Slam in Game one
of the twenty four World Series.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Yeah, more than Kirk Gibson's home run. No, yeah, because
I wasn't watching TV. I was watching the Kings get
their aspect by Philadelphia.
Speaker 17 (23:51):
But I was that.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Nothing has made me that excited in my life ever.
Speaker 16 (23:57):
And Rojas is enjoying the circuit. He's enjoying the you know,
the Nate late night midday talk show circuit.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Did he change numbers? Wasn't he number eleven for a
long time and now he's seventy two?
Speaker 16 (24:09):
Or well, when he came to the Dodgers as an
unknown in twenty twelve, he was seventy two because he
wasn't expected to make the team. But really, when he
came back to the Dodgers after being with the Marlins
for eight years, he took number eleven. That was his number.
But then the Dodgers signed this rookie Japanese pitcher, Roki Sasaki,
(24:31):
and Rojas gave up number eleven to Sasaki and took
seventy two. And now he's a Japanese hero because of
him giving up his number to Sasaki and that right.
Hitting the home run obviously only adds to it.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
That is going to set him in stone with Dodger
fans forever.
Speaker 16 (24:49):
He's a legacy player now exactly, and they gave him
a contract to play this year and then stay in
the organization as a coach. And I actually believe Freddy
Freeman is a like see player as well. I think
you're right to walk off home run in World Series games.
Nobody's done that ever, literally ever in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
But this is Game seven, you know, That's why it
was so imp so different.
Speaker 16 (25:14):
You never act. You haven't even mentioned Will Smith's home run.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Will Smith?
Speaker 17 (25:18):
Look, without that, they don't win.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
But let me let me give you a player's name,
and you tell me if they have the potential of
being an All Star. Okay, okay, all right, y'a Momoto, Yes, yes,
Blake Snell, yes Glass now.
Speaker 17 (25:34):
No, well, actually he was an All Star two years ago.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yes, okay, he wasn't All Star. And then let's go
Tanner Scott no, okay, Edwin Diaz yes, Okay, Will Smith, yes,
Freddy Freeman, yes?
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Is it?
Speaker 9 (25:51):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Hey Soong Kim?
Speaker 17 (25:52):
Yes, but no, not an All Star?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Okay, Max Munsey, yes, Mack, Mookie Betts yes, Andy Pis yes,
Tommy edmund yess, Hernandez yes.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
And that that's at their starting lineup. They can all
be or have been All Stars. That's true, that sensational.
Speaker 16 (26:12):
But Conway, here's the thing. Everybody just focuses on the payroll.
If we go down that list, I'll let you know
that most of those guys were not bought and paid
for initially. It was player development. It was shrewd trades.
It was teams that discarded guys like Mookie Bets and
Freddie Freeman that the Dodgers were opportunistic in acquiring. So
(26:35):
everybody just looks at the money and I understand that,
But there's player development. There's a great president of Baseball
Operations and Andrew Freeman that pulls off these deals. Nobody
wanted ta Oscar Hernandez. The Dodgers got Mookie Bets for
three unknowns that have never made it.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Oh, is that right?
Speaker 17 (26:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 16 (26:54):
Freddie Freeman, the Braves his team, they could have kept him,
They could have kept him, did not want to him.
The Dodgers signed him as spring training was starting. Taoscar Hernandez.
Nobody wanted him. They signed him to a one year contract.
Tommy Edmond was a trade. Pajes was signed and developed.
I can go on and on.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
I know you can, but let me ask you this.
The Dodgers are They're going for three pet yes for
you know, third championship, and I think they have a
fantastic shot this year. I would be surprised if they're
not in the World Series.
Speaker 17 (27:27):
Without a doubt.
Speaker 16 (27:28):
The only obstacle is, in my opinion, in the National
League the Phillies, a team that won over one hundred games.
They still have a good team. That's the only obstacle,
and a team that almost beat them.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
But you have you had a great comment. I was
listening to I think you were on with Rodney and
Rogan and they were saying they.
Speaker 17 (27:47):
Extended interview thirty minutes with those guys.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
But you said you had the greatest line when it
comes to, you know, payroll, you said that fifty percent
is it fifty or seventy percent of the teams don't
don't pay more than half their money in payroll.
Speaker 16 (28:03):
There's thirty teams in Major League Baseball. It's been reported
there are numbers made public. Twenty of the thirty major
league teams invest less than fifty percent of their revenue
back into their payroll. That's two thirds exactly, And so
they could do that, they just chose not to. So
here's the argument, who is really ruining baseball? They are
(28:25):
exactly that's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
All right, let's talk real quickly about the new pitch
strike not the new strike zone. But you can challenge
a pitch call.
Speaker 16 (28:33):
Yeah, so we know now there's review systems in place
in all major sports, but baseball now is trying to
generate more offense. So they have tested an automated strike
zone in the minor leagues. They are bringing it into
the major leagues this year. Each team has two challenges
to challenge a ball or strike. A hitter, a pitcher,
(28:54):
or a catcher are the only three people that can
challenge it. Wait, hitter, hitter, the picture, and a catcher. Okay,
so they have the right immediately to challenge it by
tapping the top of their head. And if you don't
get it correct, you lose one of those challenges and.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
You get to a game, to a game. If you
get it right, you get retaining you retain it. So
you could do it, You could, you could challenge it
twenty times.
Speaker 16 (29:21):
I saw it in spring training last year Dodger catcher
Austin Barnes. The catcher challenged four consecutive balls that were
called wow. All four were overturned to strikes, and it
visibly shook the home plate. Umpire lost his confidence, and
that is one of the unintended consequences of this new technology.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Well, let me let me be on behalf of umpires.
You know, they're probably most of them in their fifties
or sixties behind the plate and you start to lose
your eyesight at forty. So he's he has a cage
over him. Yeah, he has a picture who's obstruct his
view and he's looking at a ball that's moving and
going ninety seven ninety eight miles an hour.
Speaker 13 (30:07):
It's it.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It is totally possible to get those wrong.
Speaker 16 (30:10):
Everyone, and now fifty thousand fans will know when you
got it wrong when they challenge it right.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
But do you do you think that most players will
reserve their challenges for later on in the game.
Speaker 16 (30:25):
Well, here's the catch. There are certain players on every
team that believe every strike is not a strike. Are
they going to have to have a talking to with
some of these guys, Hey, don't blow our challenges in
the first inning, because there has to be a strategy
as a team, not just as an individual.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
But real quickly, I know you got to go on
at seven. That box that we all see, is that
an honest strike zone.
Speaker 16 (30:51):
It's a uniform technological strike zone measured by the height
of each player. But when a player like Freddie Freeman,
who is six four sixty five standing up straight, gets
into the batter's box now crouches at the knees halfway,
he is no longer six'. Five have they taken that into?
(31:11):
Account AND i don't believe they. Have and you asked
the umpire. Today are you going to ask him? Tonight Brian,
gorman thirty Year Major league, umpire now a observer FOR.
Speaker 17 (31:22):
MLB i want to know if he has the answer.
Speaker 16 (31:25):

anytime on demand on The iHeartRadio.
Speaker 11 (32:26):
App
It's KMF I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Got
a little crime going on, right? What would LA be
with a little bit of crime happening. I know the
murder rate is way way down. It's lowest it's been
in nearly sixty years, so that's a good sign. But
(00:22):
there are still some mischief makers out there. This comes
from the Midwiltshire area. Homes in the Midwesshire area they're
being broken into. Yep, it's community burglarized by theft cruise.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
That's the newest thing in LA.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
It's a crew five six, seven guys come in take
everything you've worked so hard for and you're left with nothing.
And an LAPD officer told me this and I got
to pass along. It's a little scary, but you've got
to be aware of this. They said that about twenty
(00:56):
to fifty percent of the time, if you're robbed, if
you're how is robbed, that the people who did it
are going to come back and rob it again because
they already know the lay of the land, they know
what they missed, and they're going to try to hit
it again.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Because it was especially if it was easy.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
And that happened in Woodland Hills where a guy was
robbed and then they found the four or five straight
A students that did that, and then an hour later
they were robbed again twice in one night. And that's
scary as hell because you never know, you know, if
(01:33):
they're just looking for stuff or if they're going to
hurt or kill somebody. That happening in seeing them off
of White Oak where a couple was killed in their
home when they when they confronted the guy robbing, and
you never know whether the guy is going to wipe
you out or not. So here's the Midwelshire homes. You
(01:53):
got to be aware of this. There's a cruise out
there that can cause a lot of damage in your life.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Seems like no area, say from Hollywood to the San
Fernando Valley, now here in Midweltshire. Neighbors say mornings to
be done to stop these burglaries. Here are the back
door is kicked in, chattering the glass and leaving behind
a trail of destruction while the family was out of
town in just two days before Christmas.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Oh my god, two days before Christmas.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
That was mine.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Grandma and Grandma, you leave it to me. You just
like took everything.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Oh that poor kid got almighty, you know, Graham and
Grandpa gave a kid something, and now that's gone.
Speaker 5 (02:38):
Stealing a young son's Christmas cash and prized Pokemon card
among thousands of dollars in goods and irreplaceable personal items.
Speaker 6 (02:47):
I think they were just targeting jewelry and cash, and
from what we understand, that's kind of been the mo
for a lot of the neighbors that have been hit
in the area.
Speaker 5 (02:55):
Emily asked us.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Not, yeah, I like to most of my cash is
at sant Anita. So when they see a twenty two
thousand and six Lincoln Navigator in the driveway and there's
a Santannita hat that I have outside, they know where
(03:17):
the money is. It's not in the house, it's at
the track. And that's why nobody's busted in.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Emily asked us not to show her face on camera.
She feels frustrated, frightened, and violated.
Speaker 6 (03:30):
I think it was super traumatizing for especially my son.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Of course it is. You know, these kids are traumatized
sometimes for life. They don't feel secure in their own home.
This does a lot of damage, not just the monetary
stuff that they've taken from the house, but the sense
of security in your house. You never feel the same.
Speaker 5 (03:51):
And especially because it was around Christmas, then this thieves
can't cutting the cord to the camera then toss it
into the swimming pool.
Speaker 7 (04:01):
I went into a room by a room and saw,
like the master bedroom, the bed was completely taken apart.
Speaker 8 (04:07):
The mattress was on its side.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
This happened just down the street from Emily's house last Thursday.
Again the neighbor asking us not to reveal her identity.
Speaker 9 (04:16):
They took watches, laptops, cash.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
Finding now through social media multiple homes have been hit
in the same vicinity.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah, it's not really smart to put up anything like
watches or you know, cash on the internet. And also
you've got to be very careful when you start posting
pictures of you and your family skiing in Aspen or
Veil or you know, or on a cruise or whatever,
because that is just a big old sign to the
(04:47):
guys that are going to do this that you are
out of town and it's much easier to come in
and take all your stuff.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
It just seems to be so rampant.
Speaker 5 (04:55):
Is really disturbing, and they say catching these criminals feels hopeless.
They were completely had to tell Hoodie.
Speaker 10 (05:03):
A math love.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Even with cameras and alarm systems in place, these crooks
know what they're doing.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
But they come in on their prose like they knew
exactly what they do. They took out our motion light
and then backyard they take out our neighbors and they're
pretty high up and hard to get in.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
In addition to police presence, the community hopes neighbors come
together and form an alliance to help stop these burglaries.
Anybody with information should contact police. We're live in Hollywood.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Yeah, there's a lot of people that are pulling their
money together and hiring private security, and that seems to work.
You know, that seems to be a deterrent, especially with
a car going up and down the street with a
yellow light or red lights on it, or just a
security guy that you can call that you know is
on call at night in your neighborhood. Probably worth the
(05:53):
five hundred bucks a month that you spend on it.
You know, if you get fifty houses in your neighborhood
and everyone's spending you know, three or four hundred bucks
a month you can pay a guy to drive around
all night, and that does seem to deter some of
these straight a students. These these crews that are stealing
all your stuff. All right, there's another one. We got
(06:15):
to take a break here when we come back. But
there's another crime up in Seattle at a sports store.
They stole fifty They stole fifty thousand dollars worth of
merchandise and most stores can't afford that. I don't know
if it's insured or not. Maybe it is, but then
if you claim it on your insurance, your insurance is
(06:35):
going to go up, and it just creates a lot
of problems.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
And I don't know.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
I've been living in this in la in the Valley
my entire life, with the exception of you know, two
or three years, and I've never seen crime this bad.
You know, the murder rates down, which is great. You know,
hats off to LAPD for that, but they're just they
don't have enough officers to protect the entire city from
(07:04):
these crews. There are a lot of crews in town
that are stealing stuff, and you've got to be careful.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
And every day you wake.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Up where your house hasn't been robbed or you know,
nobody's broken into your car or you know, come in
and take all your taken all your stuff.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
You are lucky.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
You should consider yourself lucky every day you wake up
and you have not been robbed, because they know. These
guys are very sophisticated. They know how to get around
the best alarm systems, the best video cameras, and dogs
aren't even deterrened to them either.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
They're very good at what they do. You got to
give them that.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
So, I don't know, you got to pull your money together,
maybe at least for the time being, and hire some
kind of private security that seems to work.
Speaker 11 (07:50):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
All right, Jersey's stolen from a Seattle pro sport Hearts store.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
What's going on here?
Speaker 12 (08:02):
Urrable generates hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
The rival sports.
Speaker 12 (08:06):
Store is dealing with a big loss ahead of the
big game, So.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
It's not just here, it's everywhere.
Speaker 12 (08:12):
Police say, early yesterday morning, three people broke into Pro
Image Sports, which is right.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Next to the Seahawks home field.
Speaker 12 (08:18):
The masked thieves stole up to fifty thousand dollars worth
of jerseys in just two minutes. The store's owner says
he won't be able to order new merchandise for weeks.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
What the hell's going on.
Speaker 12 (08:29):
Thieves also coust more than two thousand dollars in property damage.
Speaker 10 (08:33):
See here where they cut it. Definitely had a very
high powered bolt cutter. And the cops for even saying
that's how crisp it is definitely was not something that
you just go buy it a home depot.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I don't know how people stay in business. If you're
a business owner, or you own a restaurant, some kind
of sporting good store, card store, or whatever, flower shop,
I don't know how you do it. I don't know
how you get up every morning, open those doors, pay
all your bills, find good employees, pay them and make money.
(09:03):
I don't know how you do it. Hats off to
you if you figured that out, but I have no
idea how anybody does that.
Speaker 10 (09:11):
They knew the section that they went to, went right
over there and got in and out in hurries. So
that a lot of products to sell and a lot
of great fans. So we're gonna try to stay positive
about it.
Speaker 12 (09:20):
The store owner is offering officially licensed Seahawks gear to
anyone with information that leads to an arrest.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
All right, here's a crazy trend here. There's a lot
of men now that are getting that are getting cosmetic surgery.
A lot of guys who are getting their nose, their ears,
their cheeks, their eyes.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
Guys are going for it. You know, for a long
long time it was just women.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
And when you see these big BELLYO what are some
of these big makeup stores? Is it Sapharo or Alta
Alta Onephora?
Speaker 2 (10:01):
That's what it is? All the X what is it? NYX,
n y X? Yeah? How do you rattle these off
pretty quickly?
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna say it man, very familiar.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
Yeah, men have skin too. That's a that's a great slogan,
men have skin too. I love that. I love that.
But you know these Sophora.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
And and uh, these huge stores n Yx is that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
What it was? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
Y I think Mac is a big one. That's a
cosmetics right, yeah all Mac. Yeah, Mac is more for
like the models. But those are those stores didn't exist
when I was a kid. It was just a makeup
aisle in a in a dining store. Yeah, right, exactly,
the rewards, the makeup counter, yeah, the makeup counter. But
now it's it's their own superstore. But I wonder in
fifteen years if there's going to be a men's you
(10:50):
know store where there's all kinds of guy, you know,
stuff for guys. Like right now, if you go to Walmart,
there's one tiny little section where you can get deodorant
and and cologne for men, there's like they offer like
three types and that's a wrap on you, like five
different types of shaving cream. I'm you know, and like
(11:12):
brute and all that crap is still around from the
nineteen sixties, nineteen seventies, stetson.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I saw that the other day. Polo my mom, God
bless her, you know, trying to do the right thing.
But when I was in high school, I used to
wear polo because that's what all the kids did.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You throw that crap on's.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
You know, they say everybody's got a different body chemistry,
so different colones or whatever can smell different on different people. Polo,
for whatever reason, it hit with my chemicals.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I'm the same with yeah, same ways.
Speaker 4 (11:46):
Like I got more comments, good comments. I was always
very cognizant about that and yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
It was, you know, it was a big Colone guy Belly.
Can we mention this on the air? Does he talk
about it on the air or is this a we
talked about it before?
Speaker 13 (11:56):
We are?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Okay, right, Ray Lopez? Can we talk about that?
Speaker 8 (11:59):
I think he? I think we are.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
I think we did.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
But Ray Lopez is like the specialist. He's like a
professional when it comes to cologne.
Speaker 8 (12:07):
That was a bit surprising.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Yeah, he has hundreds of bottle.
Speaker 8 (12:11):
Yeah, high end and low end.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Yeah. Yeah. I don't think he's ever told us he
has low end cologne though. I think that's something you
may smelled.
Speaker 14 (12:20):
Oh okay, that's my own personal data.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Okay, well that'll be nice when he comes in tomorrow.
You know, Hey, do I smell low end today?
Speaker 8 (12:32):
You know, just some stuff smells better to you than others.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
There's a men's skincare product and store that I go
told some keels, Is that right?
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (12:41):
And it's I mean they have women's and men's stuff
as well. I e h l right, yeah yeah, and
it's it's it's really good stuff. I mean, the hair,
skin whatever. It's not like cosmetic or you know, I
think they have a musk.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
So it's not really a cologne, but great.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Yeah, that's about the only thing that they had that
comes in the sort of cologne avenue is their musk,
and that's really good. But otherwise, yeah, I use all
their their products, their skincare products and stuff, and.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
One bottle of cologne should last you a lifetime, you.
Speaker 8 (13:12):
Know, pretty close. Yeah, like your comedy bottle.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Well, yeah, my mom I went to off the college
and she was gonna get me.
Speaker 2 (13:20):
I swear to god, steph, wush, I'll break your other arm.
Speaker 8 (13:24):
Whoa, it went dark.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
So I'm going off to college and I and I
can't find or broke the bottle of polo whatever. And
so my mom goes to Broadway or Bullocks and she
they don't have anymore. They just have the one comedy
bottle left the display display one and she bought it.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
That's like bigger than your head.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
It's a gallon. It's bigger than yeah, it's like a
foot and a half tall. And she gave me. He goes, hey,
she goes, I didn't have the smaller size. I'm like,
god almighty. They they didn't have anything other than that,
and it was it was literally like a maybe two
gallons of that. And and that's still it's still got
stuff in there. You still haven't It hasn't moved at all.
(14:16):
You know, the water line is the same as it
was before. But but now guys are going under the knife.
When we come back, we'll talk about that story. It's
a big deal, big deal.
Speaker 11 (14:28):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
David vass Belly I booked a guest for us in
at five forty five. David Vassa is coming out with
us because there's a new rule in baseball and he's
gonna explain what it is. But it has to do
with strikes and balls and how you can challenge the
strike calls or the ball calls, and how many you
(14:56):
get and how and who's how big is the strike zone?
Speaker 2 (14:59):
All that stuff, And I think they measure.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
I'll have to ask David vesay this, but I think
they measure every player before the season starts and manipulate
that box that we all see when we watch baseball.
And you could manipulate that box if you slouch a
little while they're taking the photo of you before the
season starts.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
So it might.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
It might have its kinks and its problems when when
it starts, but you are going to be able to
challenge balls and strikes. And we'll ask Davis at five
point forty five how many of those you get? Speaking
of David Veasse, I'll bet of anybody who works on
this floor that he probably is into The's the first
(15:47):
guy that gets cosmetic surgery for men.
Speaker 8 (15:50):
Oh you think so?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
I think he's a youthful guy and he wants to
keep that and I think he's going to go under
the knife at some point.
Speaker 8 (15:58):
You don't think he wouldn't be one of my first thought?
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Really? Who would you? Who would on this floor be
your first thought?
Speaker 8 (16:06):
Steph?
Speaker 2 (16:07):
You think steph Ouche? Really?
Speaker 8 (16:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Well what he what should he have done? What don't
you like about him?
Speaker 14 (16:12):
No? No, no, no, I just think what I think because
he's into skincare and all that stuff, So I think
he would That's.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Why what would you hit first on him?
Speaker 8 (16:23):
I'm not going there.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
Yeah, I didn't think so. I didn't think so, steph Oush.
I feel bad that she said that. I think you
look great.
Speaker 8 (16:31):
I think he looks great too.
Speaker 14 (16:32):
I'm just saying he because he cares about that stuff.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Have you had anything done yet, Bellio?
Speaker 1 (16:39):
No, No, how vain, It's just perfect the way it is.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Right. That's right, she really is.
Speaker 8 (16:47):
I'm sure he called me grandma earlier.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
He did. No, that's not is that true?
Speaker 14 (16:52):
Because I referred to Chapel Rome ron as Rone Chapel
and he goes, okay, Grandma, watch it a lot.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Of arm breaking around here today. What's going on?
Speaker 1 (17:10):
All right, let's get into this very controversial topic on
this show. Men with cosmetic surgery, facelifts.
Speaker 13 (17:18):
Necklifts, highlifts, mini facelifts.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
It's a growing tread of bookies reading like some kind
of really bad kids book.
Speaker 13 (17:27):
Facelifts, necklifts, ighlifts, mini facelifts.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
Read it again, Grandpa.
Speaker 13 (17:33):
It's a growing trend among men of a certain.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Age age, let's find out.
Speaker 13 (17:39):
According to data from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
I bet it's thirty five, and that's when men start
to do this.
Speaker 13 (17:45):
Minimally invasive cosmetic procedures performed on men jumped fifty three
percent over the past decade. But plastic surgery is often
not spoken about, at least amongst men.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Yeah, that's why a lot of guys die of breast
cancer because they don't tell any buddy because it's embarrassing
and they'd rather, you know, just go out with a mystery,
mystery illness.
Speaker 7 (18:08):
There's probably still a stigma around it. A lot more
men are getting work done and then telling that story
of I've just been working out and taking care of myself.
It took some time, Okay, dude, Sure.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
That's what guys do.
Speaker 9 (18:23):
If a guy gets a great result, he denies it
to all of this guy. If a woman gets a
great result, she tells all her girlfriends.
Speaker 13 (18:31):
Doctor Andrew Barnett is this San Francisco based cosmetic surgeon
who's been in the business for over forty years. Barnett
says the lockdown was an eye opening moment for men.
Speaker 9 (18:41):
A lot of people working on laptops, so we had
a dramatic increase in awareness of, hey, I don't look
so good.
Speaker 13 (18:49):
San Francisco is the tech capital of the world, right,
you know.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
I guess, Look, if you're going to do something like this,
it's not there's no shame to it anymore, you know.
I think the only thing that's been around since like
the nineteen sixties that guys do that has become acceptable,
and it has been I think since the nineteen sixties.
Is something like advanced hare, you know, but to get
(19:16):
the eyes done and ears and lips and stuff like that.
You don't want to screw that up because you can
come back and you could look a lot worse than
you did before. And Belly, you've seen this probably in
friends or family or whatever. You know, somebody gets a
lift or a nose job or something and it wasn't
(19:38):
really that good, and you have to put on that
face of oh, you look great, it looks fantastic. And
so I don't know, and it had I don't think
it has to do with the money. I think there
are some really expensive doctors they're not that great, and
some doctors that are reasonably priced that are probably really
good at what they do. So I don't know how
you pick the doctor to do this.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
I don't know.
Speaker 8 (19:59):
There's a lot of question so you would not do anything.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
I don't think i'd do anything. No, I don't know.
I think I'm gonna ride this out. You know. Let
me ask you, Belly, what should I do first?
Speaker 6 (20:10):
What?
Speaker 2 (20:10):
What? What do you think? It looks so horrible? I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
Maybe you guys, the bags under my eyes, the luggage trunks. No, yeah,
I have a horrible because I don't sleep much, and
I eat a pound of salt before I go to
bed every night, just with a spoon, the entire jar
of Morton's.
Speaker 8 (20:35):
I think you're perfect the way you are.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Thank you, Belly. I appreciate that. But if I wasn't,
what would it do you think?
Speaker 8 (20:41):
Maybe the nose?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
Oh my god, now it's the nose.
Speaker 13 (20:44):
How do you notice that the tech industry has contributed.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
To Maybe we could do that, Belly. Let's do that.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
Let's find a doctor to do both of us, and
we can both we both finally get our noses done.
Speaker 8 (20:56):
Uh what.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I know, it's such a one way straight I guess, uh.
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Needing to look better, especially for men, they're aware of
the fact that they have to remain competitive. It's not
looking old that's the issue. It's the concern of you're
looking irrelevant.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Okay, that's interesting. It's not the age that you're looking irrelevant.
Speaker 9 (21:25):
It's not looking old that's the issue. It's the concern
of you're looking irrelevant.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
Oh my god, you imagine somebody's saying that to you.
You just look so I don't know, irrelevant.
Speaker 15 (21:34):
Even though there are laws that protect against treating people
differently based on their age, we understand that there are
probably more opportunities given to someone who looks younger typically.
So I think mentally that probably negatively affects me.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Okay, did you hear that? That's a great commercial? Then
also for advanced there.
Speaker 15 (21:52):
That there are probably more opportunities given to someone who
looks younger typically, So I.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Think mental that's a great that's probably true.
Speaker 15 (22:00):
That probably negatively affects many of those who are middle
aged or even older, and I think that's what leads
people to doctors' offices.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I think he's right. All right, Well, we'll keep following
that story for you. David Vassay is going to come
on next. There's a big change. He's with the Dodgers,
by the way, he's been with the Dodgers for a
long time, and he's so jealous that that Mickey Rojas
hugged me, because he's been with the Dodgers for thirteen
years and Mickey Rojas has never hugged him.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
And he's man, he's in like a white heat of
indignation of just pissed and angry and sour and he's
gonna come on and talk about the new rule in baseball.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
It's time for Dodger baseball.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
That's my Vince Scully impression.
Speaker 11 (22:43):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Let's get right to it, David Vass with your Los
Angeles Dodgers.
Speaker 16 (22:53):
How you bub I'm doing great, Tim Conway. You know
Miguel Rojas. I saw him on Saturday at Dodger Fest.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Still did he mention me?
Speaker 17 (23:00):
Yeah? He said that hug.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Oh yeah, we'll live forever. Well, I asked him, I said,
I asked Krozier. I said, how long could I hug
Mickey Rojas before it got uncomfortable? And he said three minutes?
Speaker 16 (23:11):
Yeah, Well, he said, uh, just as long as you
guys embraced. That was awkward enough, buddy, he is.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
I'm telling you, I got more excited when he hit
that home run than almost anything in my life, Like
when I was told by my wife that we're gonna
have a baby, and I got pretty excited, but I
never screamed like that.
Speaker 16 (23:31):
Are you saying that home run by Miguel Rojas in
Game seven of the World Series made you scream louder
than Freddie Freeman's walk off Grand Slam in Game one
of the twenty four World Series.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
Yeah, more than Kirk Gibson's home run. No, yeah, because
I wasn't watching TV. I was watching the Kings get
their aspect by Philadelphia.
Speaker 17 (23:51):
But I was that.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Nothing has made me that excited in my life ever.
Speaker 16 (23:57):
And Rojas is enjoying the circuit. He's enjoying the you know,
the Nate late night midday talk show circuit.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Did he change numbers? Wasn't he number eleven for a
long time and now he's seventy two?
Speaker 16 (24:09):
Or well, when he came to the Dodgers as an
unknown in twenty twelve, he was seventy two because he
wasn't expected to make the team. But really, when he
came back to the Dodgers after being with the Marlins
for eight years, he took number eleven. That was his number.
But then the Dodgers signed this rookie Japanese pitcher, Roki Sasaki,
(24:31):
and Rojas gave up number eleven to Sasaki and took
seventy two. And now he's a Japanese hero because of
him giving up his number to Sasaki and that right.
Hitting the home run obviously only adds to it.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
That is going to set him in stone with Dodger
fans forever.
Speaker 16 (24:49):
He's a legacy player now exactly, and they gave him
a contract to play this year and then stay in
the organization as a coach. And I actually believe Freddy
Freeman is a like see player as well. I think
you're right to walk off home run in World Series games.
Nobody's done that ever, literally ever in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
But this is Game seven, you know, That's why it
was so imp so different.
Speaker 16 (25:14):
You never act. You haven't even mentioned Will Smith's home run.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Will Smith?
Speaker 17 (25:18):
Look, without that, they don't win.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
But let me let me give you a player's name,
and you tell me if they have the potential of
being an All Star. Okay, okay, all right, y'a Momoto, Yes, yes,
Blake Snell, yes Glass now.
Speaker 17 (25:34):
No, well, actually he was an All Star two years ago.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Yes, okay, he wasn't All Star. And then let's go
Tanner Scott no, okay, Edwin Diaz yes, Okay, Will Smith, yes,
Freddy Freeman, yes?
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Is it?
Speaker 9 (25:51):
Hey?
Speaker 2 (25:51):
Hey Soong Kim?
Speaker 17 (25:52):
Yes, but no, not an All Star?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Okay, Max Munsey, yes, Mack, Mookie Betts yes, Andy Pis yes,
Tommy edmund yess, Hernandez yes.
Speaker 1 (26:04):
And that that's at their starting lineup. They can all
be or have been All Stars. That's true, that sensational.
Speaker 16 (26:12):
But Conway, here's the thing. Everybody just focuses on the payroll.
If we go down that list, I'll let you know
that most of those guys were not bought and paid
for initially. It was player development. It was shrewd trades.
It was teams that discarded guys like Mookie Bets and
Freddie Freeman that the Dodgers were opportunistic in acquiring. So
(26:35):
everybody just looks at the money and I understand that,
But there's player development. There's a great president of Baseball
Operations and Andrew Freeman that pulls off these deals. Nobody
wanted ta Oscar Hernandez. The Dodgers got Mookie Bets for
three unknowns that have never made it.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Oh, is that right?
Speaker 17 (26:54):
Yeah?
Speaker 16 (26:54):
Freddie Freeman, the Braves his team, they could have kept him,
They could have kept him, did not want to him.
The Dodgers signed him as spring training was starting. Taoscar Hernandez.
Nobody wanted him. They signed him to a one year contract.
Tommy Edmond was a trade. Pajes was signed and developed.
I can go on and on.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
I know you can, but let me ask you this.
The Dodgers are They're going for three pet yes for
you know, third championship, and I think they have a
fantastic shot this year. I would be surprised if they're
not in the World Series.
Speaker 17 (27:27):
Without a doubt.
Speaker 16 (27:28):
The only obstacle is, in my opinion, in the National
League the Phillies, a team that won over one hundred games.
They still have a good team. That's the only obstacle,
and a team that almost beat them.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
But you have you had a great comment. I was
listening to I think you were on with Rodney and
Rogan and they were saying they.
Speaker 17 (27:47):
Extended interview thirty minutes with those guys.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
It was great.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
But you said you had the greatest line when it
comes to, you know, payroll, you said that fifty percent
is it fifty or seventy percent of the teams don't
don't pay more than half their money in payroll.
Speaker 16 (28:03):
There's thirty teams in Major League Baseball. It's been reported
there are numbers made public. Twenty of the thirty major
league teams invest less than fifty percent of their revenue
back into their payroll. That's two thirds exactly, And so
they could do that, they just chose not to. So
here's the argument, who is really ruining baseball? They are
(28:25):
exactly that's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
All right, let's talk real quickly about the new pitch
strike not the new strike zone. But you can challenge
a pitch call.
Speaker 16 (28:33):
Yeah, so we know now there's review systems in place
in all major sports, but baseball now is trying to
generate more offense. So they have tested an automated strike
zone in the minor leagues. They are bringing it into
the major leagues this year. Each team has two challenges
to challenge a ball or strike. A hitter, a pitcher,
(28:54):
or a catcher are the only three people that can
challenge it. Wait, hitter, hitter, the picture, and a catcher. Okay,
so they have the right immediately to challenge it by
tapping the top of their head. And if you don't
get it correct, you lose one of those challenges and.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
You get to a game, to a game. If you
get it right, you get retaining you retain it. So
you could do it, You could, you could challenge it
twenty times.
Speaker 16 (29:21):
I saw it in spring training last year Dodger catcher
Austin Barnes. The catcher challenged four consecutive balls that were
called wow. All four were overturned to strikes, and it
visibly shook the home plate. Umpire lost his confidence, and
that is one of the unintended consequences of this new technology.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Well, let me let me be on behalf of umpires.
You know, they're probably most of them in their fifties
or sixties behind the plate and you start to lose
your eyesight at forty. So he's he has a cage
over him. Yeah, he has a picture who's obstruct his
view and he's looking at a ball that's moving and
going ninety seven ninety eight miles an hour.
Speaker 13 (30:07):
It's it.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It is totally possible to get those wrong.
Speaker 16 (30:10):
Everyone, and now fifty thousand fans will know when you
got it wrong when they challenge it right.
Speaker 1 (30:18):
But do you do you think that most players will
reserve their challenges for later on in the game.
Speaker 16 (30:25):
Well, here's the catch. There are certain players on every
team that believe every strike is not a strike. Are
they going to have to have a talking to with
some of these guys, Hey, don't blow our challenges in
the first inning, because there has to be a strategy
as a team, not just as an individual.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
But real quickly, I know you got to go on
at seven. That box that we all see, is that
an honest strike zone.
Speaker 16 (30:51):
It's a uniform technological strike zone measured by the height
of each player. But when a player like Freddie Freeman,
who is six four sixty five standing up straight, gets
into the batter's box now crouches at the knees halfway,
he is no longer six'. Five have they taken that into?
(31:11):
Account AND i don't believe they. Have and you asked
the umpire. Today are you going to ask him? Tonight Brian,
gorman thirty Year Major league, umpire now a observer FOR.
Speaker 17 (31:22):
MLB i want to know if he has the answer.
Speaker 16 (31:25):
