five thousand meals meals, you're preparing twenty five thousand meals
every week week. Wow, that's incredible. And you do it
all here.
Speaker 6 (04:11):
Yes, that's the reason I close for lunch because I

I decided to close for lunch. Yes, as ago and
I just do the meals from six am.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
Right till two pm.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
And then you have your own vands. You drive them around,
four of them a four full time driving. Wow, four
full time drivers.

They're going to four citys County, but we also have
Sardino County, Losancheles County.
Speaker 5 (04:38):

Speaker 6 (04:39):
They used to go even San Diego County, but I
had to stop because the traffic was Yeah, and they
got food down there they do.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, all right. But but when when a kid comes
up to you and they've had a full play the
pasta and they come up and they say, excuse me, Bruno,
can I have some more?
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It happened often?
Speaker 1 (04:59):
But is it? Did that happen often?
Speaker 5 (05:01):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:02):
You want to brow them up again?
Speaker 5 (05:03):
No, good question.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
One night one I was at the Boys Girls Club
in down on Him and a cute little blonde little
girl seven Ethio school.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
You're very skinny. She came.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
When we saw the pasta, she left and I can
see she keep going around and look at me and
look at the pasta.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
The other pasta. She came for a second, and she
came for a third. Blo, wow, think about she was
not the word shabby.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Boy, you say, okay, but when you see a skinny
little girls come three.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Times, you know, and she's the only meal.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
Yeah that's on email and obviously break your heart. But
happy to do what we do.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Oh, that's right. That's fair haty buddy, or maybe she's
a Hollywood actress. On Ozempik, that's possible too.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
How did you know that?
Speaker 1 (05:54):
That's what I want taken? Nowadays? Has AMPI cutting your
bottom line?
Speaker 4 (06:00):
People?
Speaker 1 (06:01):
People aren't eating as much?
Speaker 5 (06:03):
That's a but.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
You know you should have an ozembic menu, a little
tiny menu, you know, just a little uh for these
people who don't eat much.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
You know, I'm my next marketing too. On ms us
that that's a good idea.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
You know, I think, you know, God forbid, I hope
we don't have the big one, but I think when
we do have the big earthquake, we can blame it
on all the people lost all that weight. It's it's
it's billions and trillions of pounds. And then once it's
all gone, the the plate shift and we all not.
(06:37):
That's right, exactly, all right. So in order for people
want to come by eight eighty seven South An I'm Boulevard,

But this is our eighth year participating with the Katerina's Club.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Fantastic eight years. Good Garden Grove.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
How big is THEPD?
Speaker 5 (12:34):
We're about one hundred and eighty ish sworn.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Oh, that's a lot, and it's probably a lot for
a small area because you have you deal with a
lot of tourists. Imagine we do.
Speaker 9 (12:44):
We have a lot of the tourists that are you know,
go to Disneyland. We're neighbors with Anaheim.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
So how close does Garden Grove get to Disneyland?
Speaker 9 (12:52):
Oh? Less than a half less than a mile?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Really?
Speaker 9 (12:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Okay, so you see a lot of it in the
hotels and restaurants and all that stuff. Yeah, what are
you know when you hear a Garden Grove. You don't
hear of a lot of crime. I guess that's because
you have, you know, ten thousand cops.
Speaker 7 (13:07):
Ou.
Speaker 9 (13:07):
Yeah, well, we do our past. We try to keep things,
you know.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
And and is it has it been a struggle this year?
Is crime gone up? Gone down?
Speaker 9 (13:15):
I don't know the stats, but it's it's busy, it's
been Yeah, it's been a busy year.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
I saw a guy pull up on his bicycle who
looked like he may know somebody who could get you
some meth amphetamines.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Yeah, And he.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Said, he said, what is this for? And I said,
we're feeding you know, kids that don't have food. And
he goes, I don't have food either, Show me the way.
So I introduced him to Bruno. And now they're putting
that together. But what do you have totals for us
on what you raised? I do all right? Here. They
are Garden Grove Police Department. These are the men and
women that keep you safe if you live in Garden Grove.
(13:51):
And they stepped to you quickly. If you if you
if you step off the curb and Garden Grove, they
arrived very quickly, and they give you a very strong
message you've done something wrong. I know that. By the way,
what are the totals this year?
Speaker 9 (14:06):
So we just barely beat last year's. I wasn't sure
we were going to do it, but we have twenty
two hundred and seventeen pounds lost.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 9 (14:17):
And then about three hundred and fifty bucks in cash.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Okay, wow, three hundred and fifty and twenty.
Speaker 9 (14:21):
How many pounds two hundred and seventeen pounds.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Wow, that is fantastic. So that's probably you know, four
thousand meals and then three it's almost five thousand meals. Yeah,
that's fantastic. Thank you so much.
Speaker 9 (14:34):
It's a pleasure.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
That is so great.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Is Garden Grow currently looking to hire more men and women?
Speaker 5 (14:41):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (14:41):
Yes they are, Yes, we are.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
So do you like getting them from other agencies or both?
Speaker 9 (14:47):
We have people that come from other agencies. We are
looking for new hires right now, people that will pay
to put through the academy.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Which academy do they go through?
Speaker 9 (14:55):
We use a couple of different ones, Golden West, Orange
County Sheriffs.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So which which one's the easiest one? And like, if I.
Speaker 9 (15:02):
Wanted to go through, I went to the Orange County
Sheriff's department.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
How long is that?
Speaker 9 (15:06):
It's six months?
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Six months? Every day I'll get out of here. Who
is that time?
Speaker 5 (15:13):
Is that some?
Speaker 1 (15:13):
When you do six months, it's seven days a week,
five days, five days a week. Yeah, and forty hours?
And did you live down around there?
Speaker 9 (15:21):
I lived not too far. Some of our guys were
commuting from La County all the way down and.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
So is that's right?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
And who pays for that? Do you pay for it?
To the agency?
Speaker 9 (15:29):
I was lucky My department paid me while I went there,
and they pay for everything. But there are people that
will self sponsor and pay their own way, and then
fingers crossed they try to get hired on at a
police department after that.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
How big was the class before when you started? How
big was it when you finished?
Speaker 9 (15:45):
So at the time when I went through, it was
not a great time for financially for the well the county.
So there was only twenty seven in my class starting.
Oh that's small, and we graduated I believe twenty one.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Okay, so six guys failed. Yeah, and there I saw
one of the guys on the bike buzzing around, you know,
looking for a meal. But you've been with Garden Grove
your whole career pretty much.
Speaker 9 (16:09):
I was with Orange County Probation for a little bit, okay,
but most of my time I've been with with Garden
Grove PD.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
How many years do you have left before you tip retire?
Speaker 9 (16:17):
I could go in less than seven, No way, I'm
probably gonna do about ten more.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Do they have a drop program like LAPD?
Speaker 5 (16:24):
No?
Speaker 9 (16:24):
Not, I know what the program is now, we.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Don't really, but that is that that's great. I mean
to be with one department your whole life, you really
get to know the people, the streets, the lay of
the land.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
Yes, it's a it's a great city. It's busy, but
not too busy. But there's always something happening, always something
to you know, are are exciting?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Our holidays especially busy because of Disneyland.
Speaker 9 (16:48):
For us, not so much because of Disneyland. I don't
know what it is, but just the holidays bring families
together and then bad things sometimes happened.

And all right, So Garden Grove is one hundred and
eighty officers, yes, And how big is Anaheim?

Speaker 1 (20:28):
That's right.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
Yeah, it's a radio themed basket.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
It's a book called Run for the Walls. People that
run for the Canadian border.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
I don't think that's true.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
But all right, one of the one of the great
sponsors here at kf I and one of the great
places to get your car fixed is number one Collision
Group and we have Murphy Tarvis is with us. Murphy.
Speaker 11 (20:52):
Thanks guys, Thanks guys. You guys were talking music to
my ears, talking.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
About traffic and digestion is near a message.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
You kind of put your right in business today.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Apparently not close enough.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Not close enough. Maybe you got the right home.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
You and I have a couple of things in common.
One is we don't like dents on our car. That's one.
And number two, you're also a big hockey fan.
Speaker 11 (21:17):
I would agree with you in one of those. I
actually do like dance on cars. Right, you got to
make a living.
Speaker 4 (21:25):
With there you go.
Speaker 11 (21:26):
But yeah, no, I'm I'm a massive sports fan, you know. Unfortunate.
I don't cheer for a winner all the time. But yeah,
I'm a I'm a hockey nut.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
You're a Canucks fan. I am not a Canucks hater,
which is good. I can't I can't stand the Sharks.
I can't stand the Avalanche. There's a couple of other teams,
but Vancouver. I went up there with my mom when
I was fifteen, and then we'll talk about the collision
Center here. But Vancouver is one of the most beautiful
cities in the entire world and doesn't get enough credit
(21:55):
for being how spectacular it is.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Well, I think you didn't take it for granted.
Speaker 11 (21:59):
We're you know, you go up and you don't realize
this just how beautiful spot it is. Yeah, you know,
we're just two hours north of Seattle. A lot of people,
uh think that we're up in the tundra, but it's
it's a beautiful spot.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
It's spectacular.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
You were raised in Vancouver. I was, yeah, you had
a little Canadian little to your.
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Little did I say a one too many times?
Speaker 4 (22:18):
I did catch up? But just a nice way that
Canadians don't. They have that nice way of speaking.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Have I said sorry yet?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
No?
Speaker 9 (22:23):
No?
Speaker 11 (22:23):
Okay, Okay, now we are on the board. Okay, now
I'm on the board.
Speaker 5 (22:26):
Okay. Good little known.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
Fact about Canada. If you get a d UI in
the United States, they will not allow you in that country.
What you're not getting into the country. That means everybody
in this room has to stay in America, can't. You
can't get into Canada with the d uy.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
They will not let you if you take a cruise,
an Alaska cruise and you stop in Canada, you have
to stay on the ship. They won't even allow you
off the ship.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
This is insane. I didn't know you know that.
Speaker 11 (22:55):
No, no, I didn't know that. But I hear you
are making another rendezvous up to Vancouver this.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, in the summer. We're going on a cruise in
July of next year. We're going to Alaska and then
I catch a can Sidka Vancouver and then back to Seattle.
But it's it's just such a great area. BC is
so beautiful that Bouchard Gardens. You have been there?
Speaker 4 (23:18):
I have, yes, Oh my god, spectacular.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
All right, let's talk about number one Collision group.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Let's talk about it.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
You have a ton of stores up in Canada, and
now you have one right here in southern California.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
We do.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Yeah, We're just down in Coasta Mesa in Newport area
and just opened up five months ago.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
I got a tour of the place and it felt
like it felt like it was spectacularly clean. I noticed,
and everything looked like it was top notch. Everything was
first class.
Speaker 11 (23:47):
Well, thank you, you know, we we take a lot
of pride in our facilities and every single one of
them are just like that, you know, built from the
ground up. And uh yeah, we uh, we understand the
importance of repairing the vehicle right, and it starts with
with how we greet you and in building that trust right.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
And so how many locations do you have?
Speaker 11 (24:05):
So we have seven so up in the Pacific Northwest.
We have five in in BC, and then one in
Washington and then the newest one down here in Newport. Oh,
you have one in Seattle, Bellingham, Washington, Belliam, Yeah, that's right.
And then what made you come down to California? Just
the trillion cars here? That certainly helps our bat drivers. Well,
all that certainly helps. But uh, you know, I think
(24:26):
we've been looking to get into the southern California market.
One of our ownership group lives down here and wanted
to get a part of the community and and you know,
and so we, uh we made the made the choice
and came down.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And and nowadays, with all the technology in the car,
you can't take some of these expensive high end cars
to your local guy that you've been dealing with for
thirty years because he's not familiar with the sensors and
the aluminum siding and the different materials they use.
Speaker 11 (24:52):
Yeah, I think, you know, I think trust, trust and
integrity is really the where you need to take the
car to get fixed. You know, that's that's first and foremost.
You have to like you know, you're getting a quality repair.
But as you mentioned, you know, parts restrictions oem SO vehicles.
They're not selling the parts necessary to replace the vehicle
unless you're a certified chop So if you're not certified,
(25:13):
they may choose to try to fix a part because
they can't buy it.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Murphy Ley have a question for you. Yes, in the
old days they the rule of thumb and Mark knows
this and probably Krozer as well. When the frame is bent,
it's over. Is that still the rule the policy?
Speaker 5 (25:28):
No? No, no, you.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Can repair a bend frame.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah, that's great. That's great news for me.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
But but not great.
Speaker 11 (25:36):
I mean, obviously you don't want to be a part
of a frame damage, you know, an incident. But but yeah,
you know.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
What I think has really helped a lot of people.
Car facts comes to mind, where you can do a
quick history on the car before you buy it. I
think it's tremendously valuable.
Speaker 11 (25:50):
It is tremendously valuable. I mean, I don't shut down here.
If it's a requirement to be on car facts, is
it in Canada?
Speaker 5 (25:56):
It's not.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
OK.
Speaker 11 (25:57):
No, So if if you take it somewhere that participates,
then they can upload.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
It to Carfax.
Speaker 11 (26:02):
But you can't trust that car Fax is uploading that
the place where that car was fixed is being uploaded
on a regular basis, because you know that's where it
gets back to. Yeah, you do want to know. You
want to know where your dealerships are referring you to
get that work done, because they're going to want to
make sure that their cars are repaired right to their
OEM standards right.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
And when somebody has all their paperwork, you know they've
owned the car for five years. You're going to buy
a used car and they you can see where they
had the oil change, where they did then to repair
and all that stuff. It makes that car much more value.
Feel better about it. You know you trust that car. Yeah,
when you lose trust in the car, it's over absolutely.
Speaker 11 (26:35):
And I think that's one of the biggest concerns for
the for the OEM dealers out there, is that losing
that brand protection that they're concerned about. So it's how
does that vehicle withstand the next accident?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Right?
Speaker 1 (26:47):
Right?
Speaker 5 (26:48):
So, so how do you ensure that?
Speaker 11 (26:49):
Well, you go to where they recommend, where they have
access to OEM repair information, they have access to all
the restriction parts. What is OEM so OM is original manufacturer.
So so like BMW Mer eighties, I'm ask that question. Yeah, sorry, guys,
Sorry guys, you know.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
I don't want to. I just nodded. Show. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 1 (27:07):
What's the website? How people can people get a home?
Speaker 5 (27:09):
So number one collision dot com.
Speaker 11 (27:10):
Okay, and we're just down on Bristol Drive down in Coasta, Mesa.
And uh yeah, I challenge everyone just to come down
and check it out.
Speaker 5 (27:18):
It's not your typical collision shop. It really isn't.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Everything is immaculate. It's even it's even cleaner than this place,
which is spectacularly clean. It really is a great place though.

into housing. Ladies and gentlemen. Chef Bruno.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Bru No, no, no, no, yes.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You're usually not open at the White House here in Anaheim,
is it eight eight to seven South Anaheim Boulevard. Yes, correct,
You're not open on Monday and Tuesday. And I think
I know why. Uh if a restaurant is opened seven
days a week, I'm like, ooh, when did they clean
the place?
Speaker 5 (02:37):
You? Correct?
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Yeah, but on Monday and Tuesday you have people come
in and clean. So you were off to the races
on Wednesday with the beautiful clean restaurant.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
Yeah, but it's also nice to give a clue day off.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Nobody can walk seven days a week, not eiving myself.
That's exactly just like.
Speaker 6 (02:53):
I did this right after COVID or after the fire,
after the restaurant file. See why we need to for lunch.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
That's right, close up for lunch, just for the kid.
And uh, extra days off. I'm onesday night.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I told somebody here earlier, I said, nobody works seven
days a week, and some lady out there said, Jesus
Christ works seven days a week. I said, I think
you're mixing that up with God. But I think you're okay.
I think you're okay. So this is great. Let's read
the totals here so far today, how much money we
(03:29):
have raised, ladies and gentlemen. I'm gonna give it to Krozier.
He's been here for thirty eight years. He deserves the honor.
Speaker 7 (03:37):
Four PM totals are five hundred and seventy eight thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
One hundred seventy three dollars Wow. And between pasta and sauce.
Speaker 7 (03:50):
Sixty two thousand, two.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Hundred and six pours.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
That is great.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
It's fantastic, fantastical, and so Bruno, you are feeding twenty
five thousand meals meals, you're preparing twenty five thousand meals
every week week. Wow, that's incredible. And you do it
all here.
Speaker 6 (04:11):
Yes, that's the reason I close for lunch because I
could not do lunch and kids on the same time.
I decided to close for lunch. Yes, as ago and
I just do the meals from six am.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
Right till two pm.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
And then you have your own vands. You drive them around,
four of them a four full time driving. Wow, four
full time drivers.
Speaker 6 (04:30):
They're going to four citys County, but we also have
Sardino County, Losancheles County.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
I mean it's to go far.
Speaker 6 (04:39):
They used to go even San Diego County, but I
had to stop because the traffic was Yeah, and they
got food down there they do.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, all right. But but when when a kid comes
up to you and they've had a full play the
pasta and they come up and they say, excuse me, Bruno,
can I have some more?
Speaker 5 (04:58):
It happened often?
Speaker 1 (04:59):
But is it? Did that happen often?
Speaker 5 (05:01):
No?
Speaker 1 (05:02):
You want to brow them up again?
Speaker 5 (05:03):
No, good question.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
One night one I was at the Boys Girls Club
in down on Him and a cute little blonde little
girl seven Ethio school.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
You're very skinny. She came.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
When we saw the pasta, she left and I can
see she keep going around and look at me and
look at the pasta.
Speaker 5 (05:20):
The other pasta. She came for a second, and she
came for a third. Blo, wow, think about she was
not the word shabby.
Speaker 6 (05:28):
Boy, you say, okay, but when you see a skinny
little girls come three.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Times, you know, and she's the only meal.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
Yeah that's on email and obviously break your heart. But
happy to do what we do.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Oh, that's right. That's fair haty buddy, or maybe she's
a Hollywood actress. On Ozempik, that's possible too.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
How did you know that?
Speaker 1 (05:54):
That's what I want taken? Nowadays? Has AMPI cutting your
bottom line?
Speaker 4 (06:00):
People?
Speaker 1 (06:01):
People aren't eating as much?
Speaker 5 (06:03):
That's a but.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
You know you should have an ozembic menu, a little
tiny menu, you know, just a little uh for these
people who don't eat much.
Speaker 5 (06:12):
You know, I'm my next marketing too. On ms us
that that's a good idea.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
You know, I think, you know, God forbid, I hope
we don't have the big one, but I think when
we do have the big earthquake, we can blame it
on all the people lost all that weight. It's it's
it's billions and trillions of pounds. And then once it's
all gone, the the plate shift and we all not.
(06:37):
That's right, exactly, all right. So in order for people
want to come by eight eighty seven South An I'm Boulevard,
we're gonna be at eight o'clock tonight and they can
eat after it's after four, so the restaurants open.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
We open a four o'clock tonight because you here.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Okay, and and who is what is the most expensive
meal on the menu. Is it still filet mignon right now?
Speaker 5 (06:58):
The last month? Your steak waggle?
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Oh, but there's not as expensive of other restaurants.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
Because I look around, I'm much the prices. They remind you.
Speaker 6 (07:09):
Your steak a ticket can be sixty eight where all
the places are almost one hundred. Really, to be honest
with you, check it around and it's good.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
But you know what I I that happens. People come
to Disneyland. They stay locally, and they're tired of eating
Denny's and I Hop and you know, Burger King. Not
that there's anything wrong with it, but they want a

Oh is that right? Wow? Okay, my Italian heritage. You
are with Garden Grove Police Department. Yes, and you guys
raise food and money every single year. And it's not
just in the last month or so, you do it annually.
You do it all year long.
Speaker 9 (12:19):
We do obviously there's a big push here at the end.
But this is our eighth year participating with the Katerina's Club.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Fantastic eight years. Good Garden Grove.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
How big is THEPD?
Speaker 5 (12:34):
We're about one hundred and eighty ish sworn.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Oh, that's a lot, and it's probably a lot for
a small area because you have you deal with a
lot of tourists. Imagine we do.
Speaker 9 (12:44):
We have a lot of the tourists that are you know,
go to Disneyland. We're neighbors with Anaheim.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
So how close does Garden Grove get to Disneyland?
Speaker 9 (12:52):
Oh? Less than a half less than a mile?
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Really?
Speaker 9 (12:55):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:56):
Okay, so you see a lot of it in the
hotels and restaurants and all that stuff. Yeah, what are
you know when you hear a Garden Grove. You don't
hear of a lot of crime. I guess that's because
you have, you know, ten thousand cops.
Speaker 7 (13:07):
Ou.
Speaker 9 (13:07):
Yeah, well, we do our past. We try to keep things,
you know.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
And and is it has it been a struggle this year?
Is crime gone up? Gone down?
Speaker 9 (13:15):
I don't know the stats, but it's it's busy, it's
been Yeah, it's been a busy year.
Speaker 5 (13:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
I saw a guy pull up on his bicycle who
looked like he may know somebody who could get you
some meth amphetamines.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Yeah, And he.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Said, he said, what is this for? And I said,
we're feeding you know, kids that don't have food. And
he goes, I don't have food either, Show me the way.
So I introduced him to Bruno. And now they're putting
that together. But what do you have totals for us
on what you raised? I do all right? Here. They
are Garden Grove Police Department. These are the men and
women that keep you safe if you live in Garden Grove.
(13:51):
And they stepped to you quickly. If you if you
if you step off the curb and Garden Grove, they
arrived very quickly, and they give you a very strong
message you've done something wrong. I know that. By the way,
what are the totals this year?
Speaker 9 (14:06):
So we just barely beat last year's. I wasn't sure
we were going to do it, but we have twenty
two hundred and seventeen pounds lost.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 9 (14:17):
And then about three hundred and fifty bucks in cash.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Okay, wow, three hundred and fifty and twenty.
Speaker 9 (14:21):
How many pounds two hundred and seventeen pounds.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Wow, that is fantastic. So that's probably you know, four
thousand meals and then three it's almost five thousand meals. Yeah,
that's fantastic. Thank you so much.
Speaker 9 (14:34):
It's a pleasure.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
That is so great.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Is Garden Grow currently looking to hire more men and women?
Speaker 5 (14:41):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (14:41):
Yes they are, Yes, we are.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
So do you like getting them from other agencies or both?
Speaker 9 (14:47):
We have people that come from other agencies. We are
looking for new hires right now, people that will pay
to put through the academy.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Which academy do they go through?
Speaker 9 (14:55):
We use a couple of different ones, Golden West, Orange
County Sheriffs.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
So which which one's the easiest one? And like, if I.
Speaker 9 (15:02):
Wanted to go through, I went to the Orange County
Sheriff's department.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
How long is that?
Speaker 9 (15:06):
It's six months?
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Six months? Every day I'll get out of here. Who
is that time?
Speaker 5 (15:13):
Is that some?
Speaker 1 (15:13):
When you do six months, it's seven days a week,
five days, five days a week. Yeah, and forty hours?
And did you live down around there?
Speaker 9 (15:21):
I lived not too far. Some of our guys were
commuting from La County all the way down and.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
So is that's right?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
And who pays for that? Do you pay for it?
To the agency?
Speaker 9 (15:29):
I was lucky My department paid me while I went there,
and they pay for everything. But there are people that
will self sponsor and pay their own way, and then
fingers crossed they try to get hired on at a
police department after that.
Speaker 1 (15:40):
How big was the class before when you started? How
big was it when you finished?
Speaker 9 (15:45):
So at the time when I went through, it was
not a great time for financially for the well the county.
So there was only twenty seven in my class starting.
Oh that's small, and we graduated I believe twenty one.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Okay, so six guys failed. Yeah, and there I saw
one of the guys on the bike buzzing around, you know,
looking for a meal. But you've been with Garden Grove
your whole career pretty much.
Speaker 9 (16:09):
I was with Orange County Probation for a little bit, okay,
but most of my time I've been with with Garden
Grove PD.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
How many years do you have left before you tip retire?
Speaker 9 (16:17):
I could go in less than seven, No way, I'm
probably gonna do about ten more.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Do they have a drop program like LAPD?
Speaker 5 (16:24):
No?
Speaker 9 (16:24):
Not, I know what the program is now, we.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Don't really, but that is that that's great. I mean
to be with one department your whole life, you really
get to know the people, the streets, the lay of
the land.
Speaker 9 (16:34):
Yes, it's a it's a great city. It's busy, but
not too busy. But there's always something happening, always something
to you know, are are exciting?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Our holidays especially busy because of Disneyland.
Speaker 9 (16:48):
For us, not so much because of Disneyland. I don't
know what it is, but just the holidays bring families
together and then bad things sometimes happened.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
And all right, So Garden Grove is one hundred and
eighty officers, yes, And how big is Anaheim?
Speaker 4 (17:00):

But all right, one of the one of the great
sponsors here at kf I and one of the great
places to get your car fixed is number one Collision
Group and we have Murphy Tarvis is with us. Murphy.
Speaker 11 (20:52):
Thanks guys, Thanks guys. You guys were talking music to
my ears, talking.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
About traffic and digestion is near a message.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
You kind of put your right in business today.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Apparently not close enough.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
Not close enough. Maybe you got the right home.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
You and I have a couple of things in common.
One is we don't like dents on our car. That's one.
And number two, you're also a big hockey fan.
Speaker 11 (21:17):
I would agree with you in one of those. I
actually do like dance on cars. Right, you got to
make a living.
Speaker 4 (21:25):
With there you go.
Speaker 11 (21:26):
But yeah, no, I'm I'm a massive sports fan, you know. Unfortunate.
I don't cheer for a winner all the time. But yeah,
I'm a I'm a hockey nut.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
You're a Canucks fan. I am not a Canucks hater,
which is good. I can't I can't stand the Sharks.
I can't stand the Avalanche. There's a couple of other teams,
but Vancouver. I went up there with my mom when
I was fifteen, and then we'll talk about the collision
Center here. But Vancouver is one of the most beautiful
cities in the entire world and doesn't get enough credit
(21:55):
for being how spectacular it is.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Well, I think you didn't take it for granted.
Speaker 11 (21:59):
We're you know, you go up and you don't realize
this just how beautiful spot it is. Yeah, you know,
we're just two hours north of Seattle. A lot of people,
uh think that we're up in the tundra, but it's
it's a beautiful spot.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
It's spectacular.
Speaker 4 (22:12):
You were raised in Vancouver. I was, yeah, you had
a little Canadian little to your.
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Little did I say a one too many times?
Speaker 4 (22:18):
I did catch up? But just a nice way that
Canadians don't. They have that nice way of speaking.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Have I said sorry yet?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
No?
Speaker 9 (22:23):
No?
Speaker 11 (22:23):
Okay, Okay, now we are on the board. Okay, now
I'm on the board.
Speaker 5 (22:26):
Okay. Good little known.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
Fact about Canada. If you get a d UI in
the United States, they will not allow you in that country.
What you're not getting into the country. That means everybody
in this room has to stay in America, can't. You
can't get into Canada with the d uy.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
They will not let you if you take a cruise,
an Alaska cruise and you stop in Canada, you have
to stay on the ship. They won't even allow you
off the ship.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
This is insane. I didn't know you know that.
Speaker 11 (22:55):
No, no, I didn't know that. But I hear you
are making another rendezvous up to Vancouver this.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, in the summer. We're going on a cruise in
July of next year. We're going to Alaska and then
I catch a can Sidka Vancouver and then back to Seattle.
But it's it's just such a great area. BC is
so beautiful that Bouchard Gardens. You have been there?
Speaker 4 (23:18):
I have, yes, Oh my god, spectacular.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
All right, let's talk about number one Collision group.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Let's talk about it.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
You have a ton of stores up in Canada, and
now you have one right here in southern California.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
We do.
Speaker 11 (23:27):
Yeah, We're just down in Coasta Mesa in Newport area
and just opened up five months ago.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
I got a tour of the place and it felt
like it felt like it was spectacularly clean. I noticed,
and everything looked like it was top notch. Everything was
first class.
Speaker 11 (23:47):
Well, thank you, you know, we we take a lot
of pride in our facilities and every single one of
them are just like that, you know, built from the
ground up. And uh yeah, we uh, we understand the
importance of repairing the vehicle right, and it starts with
with how we greet you and in building that trust right.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
And so how many locations do you have?
Speaker 11 (24:05):
So we have seven so up in the Pacific Northwest.
We have five in in BC, and then one in
Washington and then the newest one down here in Newport. Oh,
you have one in Seattle, Bellingham, Washington, Belliam, Yeah, that's right.
And then what made you come down to California? Just
the trillion cars here? That certainly helps our bat drivers. Well,
all that certainly helps. But uh, you know, I think
(24:26):
we've been looking to get into the southern California market.
One of our ownership group lives down here and wanted
to get a part of the community and and you know,
and so we, uh we made the made the choice
and came down.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And and nowadays, with all the technology in the car,
you can't take some of these expensive high end cars
to your local guy that you've been dealing with for
thirty years because he's not familiar with the sensors and
the aluminum siding and the different materials they use.
Speaker 11 (24:52):
Yeah, I think, you know, I think trust, trust and
integrity is really the where you need to take the
car to get fixed. You know, that's that's first and foremost.
You have to like you know, you're getting a quality repair.
But as you mentioned, you know, parts restrictions oem SO vehicles.
They're not selling the parts necessary to replace the vehicle
unless you're a certified chop So if you're not certified,
(25:13):
they may choose to try to fix a part because
they can't buy it.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
Murphy Ley have a question for you. Yes, in the
old days they the rule of thumb and Mark knows
this and probably Krozer as well. When the frame is bent,
it's over. Is that still the rule the policy?
Speaker 5 (25:28):
No? No, no, you.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Can repair a bend frame.
Speaker 5 (25:31):
Absolutely.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah, that's great. That's great news for me.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
But but not great.
Speaker 11 (25:36):
I mean, obviously you don't want to be a part
of a frame damage, you know, an incident. But but yeah,
you know.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
What I think has really helped a lot of people.
Car facts comes to mind, where you can do a
quick history on the car before you buy it. I
think it's tremendously valuable.
Speaker 11 (25:50):
It is tremendously valuable. I mean, I don't shut down here.
If it's a requirement to be on car facts, is
it in Canada?
Speaker 5 (25:56):
It's not.
Speaker 4 (25:57):
OK.
Speaker 11 (25:57):
No, So if if you take it somewhere that participates,
then they can upload.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
It to Carfax.
Speaker 11 (26:02):
But you can't trust that car Fax is uploading that
the place where that car was fixed is being uploaded
on a regular basis, because you know that's where it
gets back to. Yeah, you do want to know. You
want to know where your dealerships are referring you to
get that work done, because they're going to want to
make sure that their cars are repaired right to their
OEM standards right.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
And when somebody has all their paperwork, you know they've
owned the car for five years. You're going to buy
a used car and they you can see where they
had the oil change, where they did then to repair
and all that stuff. It makes that car much more value.
Feel better about it. You know you trust that car. Yeah,
when you lose trust in the car, it's over absolutely.
Speaker 11 (26:35):
And I think that's one of the biggest concerns for
the for the OEM dealers out there, is that losing
that brand protection that they're concerned about. So it's how
does that vehicle withstand the next accident?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Right?
Speaker 1 (26:47):

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
