You're listening to Tim Conway. Jun you're on demand from
kf I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
KFI AM six. It is the Conway Show. Mark Thompson
is here in the house. Yeah, that was nice to
talk to that guy. Paul is the real thing. He's
the real thing. Wife Trudy Man, oh Man. What a
brave guy to go out there and save Steph Foosh's life.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Who on this show do you think is more likely
to stop in an accident and help somebody?
Speaker 4 (00:32):
I think, I think I think Krozier probably, Yeah, I'll put.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
I'll put Krozier number one. I'll put you number two.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
No, I go Krozier one, Angel two, Okay, Bellio close third, Yeah,
then me and then a distance Stephosh.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Sorry to hit a guy when he's down.
Speaker 4 (00:59):
I might recuse him from the list, you know, given
his current circumstance.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Maybe.
Speaker 4 (01:06):
I mean, I can't imagine now, having been through what
he's been through, that he would cruise by without trying
to do something.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
But I don't know if he can do anything. He's all,
you know, that that patched up. It's like a woodpeckerate
that we can all do something though, right, Yes, we
can do. Yeah, yes we can and we should, but
we just don't.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
I mean, the guy could have said, I'll tell you
the car's over on inside.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
I mean, I'm just one guy. There's no way they're going.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
To need a really big kind of like a Reacher
kind of guy, a big, huge, three hundred pound guy
to come over and like the rock that they need here,
not me.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
But he didn't do that. He stopped and just you know, yeah,
and I and I and you wish that.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
You know, there are a lot more people like that
in this world, and they're just they're just darn't you know.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
People are just people are aren't. You know?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
They want to stop. But I think what's preventing a
lot of people from stopping is they don't They don't
know whether they're gonna get hurt themselves or get sued
for doing for helping.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
You know, that's help. That's happened before as well.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Guys stop to help somebody out, he accidentally drags them out,
hurts their back, and now he's in a lawsuit.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Yeah, it's funny you say that because I didn't think
of that, and I'm guessing that most people wouldn't think
of that. But I think the first thing you said
people think of, which is they might get hurt. I
might get hurt. Yeah, I think that. I don't think
people do the three D chest if I might get sued,
you know, but maybe. But I definitely think that there's
an aversion to, you know, a situation where you've got
a car on its side and it's already in flames.
(02:38):
I mean, it's just very hard for people probably to
feel as though they can stop or should stop.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, during the break, we were watching TV and Cardi
B has won this case.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
But I like what Cardi B is. She's won the case. Okay,
she should be one of the happiest days of her year. Right,
she's not liable.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
Right, she comes out of this courthouse from which they've
just you know, made this pronouncement that she's not liable,
and she starts getting into it with somebody who was
she threw something out of her Yeah, she turned. Then
she's smack talking him. They're like smack talking each other
back and forth.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
So she comes out of the courtroom. Should be the
happiest day of every year. She won the case, doesn't
have to pay damages. And somebody asked her a question.
She didn't like, and she threw something at the woman.
Ru's a guy.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
Yeah, I said, you don't know how you disrespect women
like that. I didn't have to be fair. I didn't
hear what he said.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
It leads me to believe that she's guilty of whatever
they were accusing her of. She looks like she's guilty
from her anger when she comes out of the courthouse.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
She definitely couldn't wait to smack, talk back and throw something.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It's unbelievable. Yeah, you know, all she'd do is get
in the car and leave. Yeah, she threw something at
some guy or some goal and then yelled at him.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
Now, in the case that Tim's talking about, she's accused
of scratching somebody with the right and kind of a and.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
She just demonstrated that temper outside the courthouse.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
You're saying didn't had that happened a few days ago,
they could have entered that into evidence.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Maybe it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
There was a naked standoff, which sounds interesting by the way.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Naked standouts sounds like a good name for a show.
Nice name for it.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Far naked standoff with LAPD in Brentwood, Westwood area happened
earlier today.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I believe this morning, let's find out.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
We're here right here in Montana Avenue, right off the
four o five.
Speaker 6 (04:24):
I want to show you.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Okay, everybody got their bearings Montana and the four o five.
You got it. Okay, here we go.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
I want to show you right here behind me, this
is who Polisse say is an assault suspect. She is
not wearing any clothes right now. She keeps popping in
and out of the car. My photographer Tony says he
can see a dog running around the back seat of
the car. I want to show you right there on
the ground next to her vehicle, right there next to
her truck. There there's a hammer. Officers say some moments
(04:49):
ago she actually threw that outside of the car. And
this all started with that. We're going on some two
hours now of this. You know, police sate this started
around six forty five this mor morning with a call
of someone being assaulted and the eleven hundred block of Oveda.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
And you know, this is a blonde woman. I couldn't
tell how old she was. She looked like she was
in good shape. You could see it here on Channel two.
She looked like she was in decent shape. She's blonde.
You know, she's in LA and she evidently is having
some kind of radical mental laps or mental breakdown just
you know, Offer Rocker that's already say.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
When they got to the scene, this woman their suspect
hopped into a car and this led to a short pursuit,
and I mean very short, lasting no longer than two minutes,
ending right here. That's where we are now where police
say she is held up in this car. She will
not come out. I want to show you right here
at the end of the block. Here there's an officer
waiting with spike strips just in case she decides to
(05:48):
take off again once again. This has been going on
for some two hours. You can see her pop in
and out of the car.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Okay, So they they said they introduced gas to her,
gas lady gas. Nice introduction, and bang she came out
and she was arrested. Now I don't know what's going
to happen to her, but they got their goal. The
problem was that Sepulvita was closed all day, you know,
(06:15):
all morning for the rush hour, and so that screws
up a lot of people's day. The four or five
was jammed because of the you know when somepulvit closes.
There's probably tens of thousands of cars that go on
Supulva to try to avoid the four or five and
it was closed.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Ah, I don'ntblieve it, all right.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Talking about some fast food we talked about that earlier
with the French fries. But one of your favorite places,
maybe not you, Mark, but the listeners McDonald's. People love
McDonald's and they're announcing a new value menu.
Speaker 7 (06:47):
So let's talk today about this latest boom by McDonald's
trying to win back those customers who've really been turned
off by high prices. The fast food chain is now
announcing this morning the return of eight extra value meals
on its menus nation wide starting next week.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
So for exature, here we go. The extra value meals
at McDonald's.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
Sausage, egg McMuffin meal with hash Brown's and a small
coffee just five dollars. Or a big Mac meal which
comes with medium fries and medium drink. That would be
eight bucks. We know McDonald's.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
That's a great deal. I'm telling you, that's a great deal.
That sandwich is usually about seven or eight bucks.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
They're talking about the egg mcluffin.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
No, No, the Big Mac is about seven or eight bucks,
I see, but now it's with fries and drink for eight.
Speaker 7 (07:26):
Dollars, or a Big Mac meal which comes with medium
fries and medium drink that would be eight bucks. We
know McDonald's has faced some intense backlash over menu prices
with that Big Mac combo as high as eighteen dollars
in one location. So it is now cutting its prices
and it's increasing its value offerings.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Overall.
Speaker 7 (07:44):
When you look at prices, we have seen the price
of going out to eat far outpaced the cost of
food at home. Grocery prices up two percent in the
past year.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I will tell you that going out to dinner and
you know this, Mark, it's radically expensive now. Yeah, however,
I got tipped for you and Krozier, Sammy, Ritchie Bellio Angel.
Maybe Mark, you are going to be excited about this.
What Olive Garden has now has smaller meals for less money.
(08:19):
So chicken Parmesan's my meal over there, and usually it
was a huge piece of chicken with a lot of
pasta and I couldn't eat it all. And now they
have half portions half chicken, half pasta instead of twenty
four dollars. It's fifteen dollars. And man, is that a
beautiful meal.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
That's just smart. Oh. I went there on my.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
For my wife's birthday versary. No, at my wife's birthday,
we celebrated at Olive Garden.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
They don't have a salad bar. No, they have all
you can eat salad. Yeah, and we got into that
pretty good. And then we got into the all you
can eat bread steaks.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
Oh. Yes.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
And then I saw a woman who was giant to
you know, give her a compliment at large. Lady could
have gone even further north than that. And she had
the all you can eat pasta. She was super sized. Yes,
she was working that waiter every time he came by.
(09:17):
Her plate was clean as a whistle. It went right
back to it went right to the shelf, didn't even
have to go to the dishwasher. And she went through
about four or five of the all you can eat pastas.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
It's hard to stop once you get on that pasta
run man, man, it's hard to stop.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Olive Garden's great.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
I love it. The service is great, the waiters are friendly.
The mader d the.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Conway party of two.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Will be a wine pairing tonight, just asking my wife
and enjoys now.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
And then I got another tip for you.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
A full played the pasta with garlic bread at Ikea.
It's doable, Okay, in a pinch doable. The garlic bread
with some of the garlic, best garlic bread I've had
in my life. But the pasta very, very average. But
the whole meal was a dollar ninety nine. Wow for pasta.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
And a piece of garlic at Ikea, Holy dollar ninety nine. Now,
of course we did buy a sectional, so I guess
they got us. You know, we walked out of there
with nineteen hundred dollars worth of furniture.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
By the way, I always remember that Olive Garden. You
can buy those cheese graters that they have there. Oh
really yep. I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
And they sell them on site.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Wow, man, they got to going on over there. They
sell everything. We bought a brick from the side of
the building.
Speaker 8 (10:49):
Yes, they say you could buy almost anything at Olive Garden.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
Really, yep.
Speaker 9 (10:53):
They'll give you if you buy the cheese grader, they'll
give you a hunk of Parmesan cheese.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
So that's the best cheese ever.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Oh yeah, yeah, Oh, that's the guy who spins it
there for you, and he always says, you know, tell
me when, and everybody's quiet for like an hour, so
he wants to make a move.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
That's a great restaurant, though, that Olive Garden. Have you
been there? Mark the Olive Garden, which was to Aard.
Of course I've been there, but where.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
We won in Burbank, the Empire one. No, oh great,
you got to get over there. Yeah, I enjoy that.
You're making me hungry. And so we ate there for
my wife's birthday, and then I went back three days
later because they're up at eleven o'clock on weekends, and
I said to my wife, do you want anything? She
got the breadsticks or his salad, and my daughter got
bread sticks. So I phoned that order in when I
(11:37):
was at home, got in my car and went there.
And by the time I got there was seven minutes later.
Is ready hot ready? And I was in my car. Wow,
I was home in fifteen minutes. And the chicken parmejan
It's done beautifully. It was hotter than hell when even
when I got home with a nice cheese on top
of it, and with the pasta. Oh my god, that
(11:58):
Olive garden is exactly what I like in life. They
have exactly what I love in life. Inexpensive, great chicken, parmesan. Sure,
and I'm going to go again to night, I think.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
And the salad bar they maintain it. Well, it's the
salad bar. You keep saying, there's a salad bar, and
eat salad.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
You can't bring it in? Yeah, okay, I'm sorry, you're right,
I keep it. I thought that was implied it was
a bar, but no, Mark and God, and you seem
to be really annoyed by it.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
So I'm really sorry. I apologize.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
Yeah, but yeah, they keep bringing the salad.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
And anything else you want.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
And the dressing is great, endless breadsticks, right, you can
knock off. Oh my god, it's just it's so much food.
Speaker 3 (12:38):
It's great.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
It's just the greatest place in the world. I get
excited to go. You know, very few restaurants you get
excited to go. I could wait to get in there
and order and start.
Speaker 8 (12:48):
Eating and eating and eating and eating.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Like you can eat until you die. And it really
is great.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
There's a lot of big people there, so I feel
great about myself. Of course, I feel a little thinner
and just in better shape. Than I really am. Oh my,
that's terrific.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
All right, Olive Garden.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
They're not a sponsor, but I wish they were so
I could go even more rely on K five AM
six forty, was this two steps forward, one step back?
Speaker 3 (13:17):
Yeah, yeah, straight up? Tell me you're right right up?
Speaker 10 (13:21):
Now?
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Tell me is it going to be you and mean?
Speaker 11 (13:26):
Or it's just a hit and run?
Speaker 3 (13:28):
I like that. I like that turnam it's a hit
and run.
Speaker 4 (13:30):
I think two steps forward one step back is different.
It was a different song.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
I think it's opposites a tract is what that is.
So but I like that that term. Or is it
just a hit and run?
Speaker 3 (13:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (13:41):
No, I like I thought Paul Hitter took off. Really
she really had her moments. She was good.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Yeah, and and I'm the people painted her like as
a crazy woman. I never saw that side of her
though I thought.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
I always thought she was.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
She was, you know, she was an IDOL judge early
in fact, and people may it's so weird how life
is because people think, you know, Simon Cowell has blown
up of course, and Randy Jackson, et cetera.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
But at the time that Idol first went on the air.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
The most famous person on that panel it was Simon,
it was Randy Jackson, and Faulla Abdul was the best
known of the three.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah, and she kept that show interesting with their craziness.
But did you were you with the American Idol from
the first day?
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Yeah, from the first stime for the first episode American
American Idol. Uh, next Live an American Idol. The thing
about Idol back then was that Simon was nasty. You know,
Simon was giving it to you straight, and Randy was
kind of like, well, dog, I don't know you, bitchy dog.
(14:45):
And then Paul as you say, she was throwing, she
was throwing, you know. The ball was a lot of
movement on our pitch.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
Yeah. Yeah, I enjoyed that. Man. There was nothing bigger
with that show. It was so much fun. It was
so great because nobody really was huge. They were all
on their way up, right, it was just beginning.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
But the audience was twenty thirty forty million people.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Yeah, everybody watched it. Yeah. And then the Idle finale
that was like a hot ticket and you had you.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Had to avoid the internet unless the show was live.
You know, the finale was live, right, but you had
to avoid that show, you know, when it was like
East Coast West Coast before, because you would know who
wanted who went.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Out right, You'd have to deliberately, yeah, you know, stay
clear of any kind of Yeah.

All right, you're a cruiser, right, you like cruising?
Speaker 4 (15:32):
I like them, tim, I like them. I like the
salad bars there on the cruise shifts.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
There's no salad bar. It's just all you can eat. ELLYO,

ever been on a cruise?
Speaker 6 (15:42):

of all, I've never been on a cruise, but I
get scared of being in the ocean.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Oh you did, then, maybe not really in the ocean.
I mean you're in a hotel. Yeah, I mean it's
like a city. I mean it's like it's like multiple hotels.
It's not you have a life jacket on your treading water.
Speaker 8 (17:54):
Maybe I'll join your He goes, I'm afraid to be
in the ocean unless I'm on a yacht.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Yeah, below deck a thing when we come back.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Cruising more popular than ever. The world's largest mega ship
has set sail, and demand I guess is pretty high
for this cruse show.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
We're live on k Common Thompson.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
A M six forty.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
She'll think, yeah, well, I I I did. I used
to go to see the Chicago shows, one of the
Hollywood Bowl, one of the Greek and they did put
on a good show.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
I did have. I did have.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
There were two fights at Chicago show and they're playing
that song in one case, and you can't.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Leave it at home, right, you got to mix it
up with everybody. Here's when it happened.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
And I was not involved in the fight per se,
but I was standing up with my date and we were,
you know, just.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
A Chicago concert. Out of Chicago felt it.
Speaker 4 (19:02):
You felt like it was a you know, they do
some other songs that are more upbeat, so in the
upbeat songs, you were standing up like, you know whatever.
Speaker 3 (19:11):
I am alive again, whatever the whether song. I forget
what the songs were.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
But we were up there and this guy hits me
in the back and he goes sit out, and I'm like, dude,
this is a concert and you've got to be kidding me.
So I didn't really acknowledge him or you know, but
I did sit down because I know, because you're told to.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
And then.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
There's another another up and I got up again with
my date, and again the guy says, oh, so sit down,
I can't see anything.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
This is at the Hollywood Bowl. So I then thought
you can.
Speaker 4 (19:51):
I mean, I turn around, I look at the guy,
but I didn't think you can get into it with
this guy. But already now the concert's ruined, right because
you're sitting there thinking about So I got the usher
and the usher said, no problem, we'll move you. So
I go to get my stuff and I was just
so angry, you know, And I get my stuff and
(20:12):
then I as I'm right before I walk away, I
get right up in the guy's face. But I mean, like,
I feel like my nose was past his. No, I
was so right on top of him, and I yell,
it's an fing concert, mother, fr people fing, stand up
(20:33):
and dance.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
And f you.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
I think I threw in as many f's as I
could get in the short time, and then I I walked.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
I went away quickly. I have no idea what the
response was.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
Later, I see and during a mellow song, that very
song that we heard, two guys literally getting into a
throwdown rose from me and I couldn't believe it. It was
just so funny because you're listening with people, you're listening
to it against your watching it, I should say, against
what you're listening to, which is such a mellow, beautiful song.
(21:10):
And these guys are they're trading haymakers. I mean, they
were throwing fists at each other. I have no idea
what the fight was about, but it was just three
rows away from me. So when I hear Chicago, I
just can't help but remember the you know, the confrontations.
Speaker 2 (21:24):
Yeah, they're probably thinking about getting their car out of
there after the concert.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
It's tough at the Hollywood Bowl.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
So wait, let's get I'm sorry, I promised the cruise story.
Here your cruiser. I know Bellio's no, angel Is Krozier is,
Sammy's not Richie.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
I don't know Richie's not. He's got to be on
a yacht.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
I guess the cruise ship isn't as big as the
yacht that he's on. But here's the biggest ship ever made.
It is setting sail.
Speaker 12 (21:52):
Everybody, whether up close or in the nosebleeds goers are
confronting him.
Speaker 3 (22:01):
That's a wrong audio. God a mighty all right.
Speaker 10 (22:04):
Now to the cruise industry's big year, as Royal Caribbean
debuts the world's biggest cruise ship, twenty twenty five, is
expected to break records for the number of passengers and
the competition.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
It's just heating up this morning.
Speaker 10 (22:15):
Royal Caribbean making waves as it unveils the world's largest
cruise ship, called the Star of the Seas. It's a
floating mega city with twenty decks, forty bars and restaurants,
including the largest water park at sea. That's not all,
an aquadome with a fifty five foot waterfall, and Back
to the Future musical with a flying delaureate eighty eight
(22:38):
passengers across social media, bringing viewers inside.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Oh my god, this thing is huge.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
According to Triple A twenty twenty that was.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
That guy on the cruise. My god, this thing is
huge as that.
Speaker 10 (22:50):
Part of another story, according to Triple A twenty twenty five,
marking the third straight year of record cruise passenger volume.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
Okay, it's all thanks to the love Mode.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
They can trace every all these cruises back to the
show The Love Boat did that.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
That was the industry. I know that.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Yeah, and all can be traced back to the song
the Love Boat Love exciting and news.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
I'm on board. We're expecting you the Love Boat.
Speaker 6 (23:14):
The cruise industry is rebounding a big one.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
Charlie Fox.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
That's yes, I've got his book. I've got his book
on my kitchen counter. Really yeah, killing me software. Yeah,
I love.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
And all their love bun it, followed by Captain Stubings
got a sort of passenger. It's funny.
Speaker 8 (23:36):
I've been watching the old Mary Tyler Moore show like
Going to Sleep at Night, and it's crazy how many
people that ended up starring on the Love Boat were
on that show. Yeah right, like I mean, like you said,
Stubing I mean he was regular on the show.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
But like, uh.
Speaker 8 (23:49):
Like so many other people like Gopher did did an
appearance as like a priest on the show. And Mary
Tyler Moore. Yeah, a bunch of other people that were
regular cast members were on. Marly Tyler Moore beforehand.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Was a real boat, wasn't it, Tim? That that was
that was part of the thing. We'll shoot it and
you can actually enjoy this time. That's that's not true.
They did a lot of the exteriors from the Princess Cruise.
But I remember my my father, Tim Conway was always
asked to be on the love Boat and he and
he and he always turned it down. He always said, now,
(24:20):
he's very gracious about he didn't turn much stuff down.
I said, why do you always turn this down? He said,
I don't want to get seasick, you know, I don't
want to spend a week, you know, puking.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
I said, yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
They filmed at Fox on Picose.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
These people don't go out to see I mean, is
that right?
Speaker 4 (24:37):
So they I thought, because I'd heard it, they'll do
like a little weekend and son out of Texas.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
I thought, it's all filmed.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Fo Yeah, I watched it last night I watched a
love boat.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
What was the plot last night?
Speaker 2 (24:49):
It was a guy who lied about being a doctor
to get this woman and then the real doctor came
in onto the scene.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Oh, Bernie Capel.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
No, it was it was like a real like a doctor,
like a guest star of it. But you know who
it was? The the actor was this this singer Paul
Is it Paul Anka?
Speaker 3 (25:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (25:09):
Paul who is in Paul Anka?
Speaker 3 (25:11):
I think it was Paul Anko. Who is the star
of it? Oh? And or no, Paul Williams. Paul Williams
the composers. Yeah, it was Paul Williams.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
And he was pretending to be a doctor and then
she found out he wasn't really the doctor, but the
doctor was next door and he was pretending just to
you know, to be with her.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
And then in the end, not to spoil it, but.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
They fell in love because she fell in love with him,
whether he was a doctor or not.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
I love that. Not to spoil it, well, I don't
want to. I don't want to give the b story.
I was raised on shows like that.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
I'm used to those kinds of endings and stories there
are they are not The endings are.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Too bleak and I know, here's the cruise ship. Let's
find out how big this sucks.
Speaker 10 (25:50):
The cruise industry is rebounding in a big way post pandemic,
even exceeding Hotel Toment.
Speaker 11 (25:54):
Well, what's happening right now is there's more people that
are wanting to go on cruises. Some that have maybe
take one or two cruises and now they're doing three,
four or five cruises in a year.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
They're sick of the who's got that money? Five cruises
in a year, they're not. They're sick of these with
the time.
Speaker 11 (26:11):
They're sick of the price gouging with the hotels.
Speaker 10 (26:14):
Experts say the over the top offerings are all part
of the industry's push to go bigger and better. Royal
Caribbean doubling down just a year after its Icon of
the C's debut.
Speaker 6 (26:24):
And this week Virgin Voyage is brilliant.
Speaker 10 (26:27):
Lady is making its adults only made in Voyage.
Speaker 11 (26:30):
There's the ships, but the real arms race, let's call it,
are in the destinations. And what the cruise lines are
trying to do right now is be able to control
more of the cruise, to be able to provide a
more unique experience I mean.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
This is perfect for families, right because you could see
so much of the world and have a great time motioning.
Speaker 8 (26:49):
A lot of people here taking those Disney cruises not
having it.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Absolutely so here.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
It is it's it's two hundred and forty eight thousand
gross tonnage two hundred and forty eight thousand tons or pounds.
I can't figure this out, but it's designed to carry
fifty six one hundred passengers.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Wow, fifty six hundred passengers.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Yeah, that's sir, with a crew of four thousand, about
nine thousand people on board.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Got mighty.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
I hate to say this, but I would love to
be on that cruise. I'd love to mix it up
with fifty six hundred other people.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
It's like taking a resort hotel, Yes Vegas and just
putting it on the open seats.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Speaking of that, we're doing a cruise next July. If
you want to be part of that, you go to
Conwaycruise dot Com. We're up to one hundred and forty
five people going on that cruise Conwaycruise dot Com, so
join us. It might be my last and first and
only cruise.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
I ever do.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Conwaycruise dot Com Conway Thompson KFI AM six forty. It
is the Conway Show. Mark Thompson is here, and Mark
mentioned a concert that he went to. Hey, it's fighting everybody,
and but there's I guess a concert etiquette.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
Yeah, what is the concert etiquette on standing up and stuff?
I would think of a concert. You're allowed to stand
up if you.
Speaker 3 (28:10):
Feel the group. That's how you should be doing the concert.
You're there for the groove, that's right.
Speaker 12 (28:15):
That's let's find out, whether up close or in the nosebleeds.
Concertgoers are confronting a bitter battle over whether to sit
or stand while seeing.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
Their favorite acts.
Speaker 12 (28:31):
And while some have a clear view.
Speaker 3 (28:33):
If you're at a Waxing Boys concert doing not fit.
Speaker 12 (28:36):
Down, others won't stand for it.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
If you have a see why are you standing? Just
sit down and enjoy the music.
Speaker 12 (28:41):
Online, audiences posting their frustration with fellow fans blocking the show.
Some encounters even getting physical.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
That's you right, Yeah, yeah I didn't. I didn't actually
get into it with the guy. I mean I was
right up in his face because he was right up
in you know, he started it.
Speaker 12 (29:01):
Some encounters even getting physical, like in this scuffle in
April where one unidentified woman can be seen pulling someone's ponytail,
then appears to gesture for her to sit down. Now,
some artists are taking a stance, though even they are split.
Country star Vince Gill, who now performs with the Eagles,
(29:23):
doing shows that the Sphere in Las Vegas later this week,
recently defended those who choose to sit, suggesting a generational
gap in preference.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
I notice everyone was sitting down.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Well, they're all old. People pay so much money for
those seats, you know. Speaking of the Sphere, did you
see what they're doing now with Wizard of Oz. Yeah,
I'm kind of curious to see it.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
And they have the whole tornado on the opening scene.
You can feel the tornado and there's like debris rolling
around in smoke.
Speaker 4 (29:49):
And they really commit to the tornado. I'm very more
more Tornado than you know.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
What do you think the least expensive ticket is for
that Wizard of Oz starting I'm going to.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Guess you could the least expensive. You might be able
to get four ninety dollars one hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Yeah, okay, one hundred dollars to see a movie we've
all seen thirty times.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
Right, because it's an experience I guess, so, I guess.
So that's the last thing they want to do is
have some guys.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Right, though, Vince Skill is right about the Eagles, you
have to take an account most of the demographic that
grew up with the Eagles. They're older people. Yeah, they
want to sit on there's nothing wrong with stained seated, right.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
But if you go to see Taylor Swift, they're probably
all standing the whole shower.
Speaker 3 (30:28):
And that's just you know, because they're young. Yeah, you
know you can stand that generational g You.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Should take the seats out, you know, just have people stand,
not even give you the roads.
Speaker 12 (30:37):
Yeah, that generational gap amping up as popular longtime artists
like Diana Ross Sting and Rod Stewart continue to tour. Still,
others have gone viral for defending fervent fans during the
Era's tour.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
You know, it's too bad that John Denver never got
that taste, you know, when when the resurgent of all
these old acts really exploded. John Denver had passed away
at like four or five, six months before that all happened.
But can you imagine how many concerts he would sell out?
Speaker 3 (31:10):
John Denver, he was giant.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
He was a giant and everybody knows the lyrics to
like nine of his songs.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
Sure, you know it's incredible.
Speaker 12 (31:18):
Taylor Swift took on security mid show for trying to
get one girl to calm down, and while Adele's emotional
ballads can bring you to your knees, the singer has
a long history supporting fans who want to stand.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
Have you seen Adele in concert?
Speaker 4 (31:40):
I have not, but I could see where you'd sway
you'd stand and sway stuff I think, you know.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Yeah, I saw Gwen Stefani in concerts. She was great.
Oh she is so great. Yeah, she was awesome. And
she's local. Yeah, Orange County, they say.
Speaker 12 (31:58):
From her massive concert Munich two or more intimate residency
in Vegas where she asked ushers to let this man dance.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
You know, I think things are going pretty well in
this country where we're The argument is should you stand
or sit at a concert? I think a lot of
countries have a lot more as going on than we do.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Yeah, I mean, to be fair, it's not the only
thing people to discussing.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
I thought it was all.
