it to uh, you know, Matt money Smith and Petros
And they said, no, those guys are you know, they're
they're they're not into the Dodgers like you are. And
(02:32):
I'm like, oh, that's kind of cool. I've been a
Dodger fan since I was born. My first Dodger game,
I was nine. It was nineteen sixty eight or sixty nine.
I can't figure it out. Uh, I said sixty nine.
My dad thought it was sixty eight, but it was
against the God I remember who it was against. But
I do remember sitting way, way, way way on top
and it was little bat night and I with a
(02:54):
one with a friend of mine from UH school, and
my brothers and my sister and we there's like nine
of us.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
We sat up in the top.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Deck, top deck at Dodger Stadium my very first game,
and we got a little tiny, like a twelve inch bat.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
That I had for a long time. And I don't
know what I've done with it since.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
But even as a kid, I remember, you know, saying
to my dad and I get Dad, you know you're
making a couple of bucks here. No way to move
down here where we can see these actual players man
that upper deck, that sun hits Oh my god, and it's.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Steep as hell.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I mean, you know, if you have any kind of
issues with height or you know height four yeah, right,
But that's gonna be a big night tonight. We've got
David Vasse coming on at five oh five. Kershaw is
going to get his three thousand strikeout tonight. That's going
to be a big, huge deal. That stadium is going
(03:51):
to be packed. There are people listening to KFI right
now who are on their way to that stadium, on
the way to Dodger Stadium right now, listening to KFI
and trying to get in there because you don't want
to be late to this game.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
You know, if you would kick you.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
You'll kick yourself in the ass if you get there
in the second or third inning and the celebration's over.
So whatever you got to do, you got to get
to that stadium. Leave now, don't don't take a chance
with traffic. This is the day before the July fourth
weekend that starts tomorrow. A lot of people are taking
tomorrow off, so traffic is going to be gruesome. Angel,
(04:27):
How is it around Dodger Stadium? Is it Is it
horrible or is it breatheable? What's going on?
Speaker 5 (04:34):
It's already gruesome. I'm looking at Stadium.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
Way and it is jam packed right now between Morton
Avenue and the one ten. So a lot of people
are heading into Dodger Stadium early so that they don't
miss a play.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
And what about the feeder freeways if you know what
I mean, you know one ten, five, one oh one.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Wink wink the feeder if you know what I mean, I.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Don't know about the wings. Just give me the.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Traffic so too, southbound is slowing out of Glacel Park.
This is getting away from Fletcher Drive. It'll get worse
in just a little while. So it's doing And now
that five's yeah, you're welcome. The south five loads up
out of Burbank from Alameda, so that's going to fill
in as well. Even the one ten southbound, it's looking
(05:22):
pretty decent right now getting out of South Pasadena, but
that tends to fill up as well as we get
a little closer to game time. But you know, it
also really has unusual slowing on a one night. The
one oh one, Yes, the one o one out of
Calabasas you're already.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So people, so Richie's from Calabasas and Hidden Hills are
going to the game.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
They got a big suite.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
They're in bumper to bumper traffic from Hidden Hills to
the stadium.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
Oh, they're out of Agora Hills a Liberty Canyon. Oh
my god, just to the one seventy one thirty four.
You're still okay for a little bit through the coin
A Pass, but right now delayser are filling in at
just a bell, just a bell to Mulholland.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Oh that's horrible. Yeah, that's the worst. Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
The North five out of Norwalk is getting busy as well,
all the way from Rose Crams.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Okay, well, we're gonna give you updates all night long
because you've got to get into that stadium before Kershaw
strikes three people out, and he may do it in
the first inning. And so you know, if you got
a suite. I'm looking at your right, Angel, I'm looking
at the traffic here. Not that I didn't you know,
suspect that you had, you know you were talking about,
(06:37):
but you're right, that is coming out of I mean literally, yeah,
Gora Hills, all the way through the valley and you
get a little tiny break in tarzan on for a
little bit and then you're done again.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
Oh that'll be solid in less than an hour.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Oh the worst.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
All right, get to the stadium. Get to that stadium
for Kershaw. He's gonna have a three thousand strikeout tonight
at Dodgers Stadium. That is gonna be a big deal.
And we're gonna have David Vassa on to talk about
all the details. And I'll be there. I'm gonna try
to slide out HEREUND six thirty. We pre recorded the
last half hour because the Dodgers were nice enough to
(07:17):
give us the suite, and I think we're sharing it.
I think Big Boy, Big Boy, a lot of KFI
or a lot of iHeart shows are going to be there.
I think Booker and Striker are going. I heard that's true.
Some of the guys and gals kiss FM. I know
that some of the gals from Coast one on three
(07:40):
point bore. Everyone's going, Petro some money. I don't think
they're going now. I find it odd that there weren't
on that list. There's something going on.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
They do the Dodger broadcast. They talk about the Dodgers
all the time, and then one of the only shows
in this building. I know Fred Rogan's going with David
Vassay is going to be there. Tim Kates isn't going
because he couldn't find a ticket, right, I mean that
guy works for the Dodgers. He has a pass and
he can't find a ticket. Mighty, it's wrong with that guy.
(08:15):
Then the other big news we're going to cover and
come back. Did he Evidently he did not. When we
come back, P Diddy is going to be free. Maybe maybe,
but he's he was found not guilty on the really
extreme charges that could have end up book putting him
in prison for the rest of his life. But he
(08:35):
still might get twenty years. I find that astonishing for
you know, simple prostitution you get twenty years or I
don't know, you know, state by state.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I find it really odd that he's going to get
that bunch of time.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
But the United States didn't put on a good enough
case and the jury saw the jurors saw it a
different way. So it came back all the details in
P Diddy's case and when will his first freak off
party happen? Because I know Steph buche wants to a
slide in there. Would you go to the a P.
Diddy freak off party? I would uber them out of there.
(09:12):
Oh well, you wouldn't go on attend. That's not your style,
not my style.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Bell Yo. Would you go to a freak off No?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
No, no, no fun gal to hang out with Conway?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Would you go a heartbeat? A heart beat?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I was bummed that he was going to be incarcerated.
Were there going to be any more of those parties?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Ain't you?
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Would you go to a freak off party? Oh?
Speaker 5 (09:36):
No, but I heard he invited the jury.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
No, it's that right, That often happens in these cases,
you know where where they end up inviting the jury
to a big dinner or big party afterwards.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
That's great, all right, all right, we'll talk about p day.
We'll come back.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
It's Conway Show, Big Day here, Dodgers, pe Daddy, step
Fosh's birthday, Good morning, good afternoon and good night, The Trifecta,
the Triple Crown, the hat trick of news.
Speaker 7 (10:08):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
It's it's like Martin and Lewis. I mean, if you
close your eyes, you know. All right, Monks is with us?
By the way, did you say happy birthday to our
our very own stuff?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oosh.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I gave him a big kiss, and oh, I gotta
go to HR after this. Yeah, he liked it though.
It was a wonder. I liked it, very very soft.
I kissed the boy and I liked it. Is something
like that.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Okay, all right, So Monks, we've got problems in downtown again.
I love the fact that you live there and you
and you come to Burbank and snitch on him all
the time.
Speaker 8 (10:52):
I love snitching on it. They need to be snitched on.
It's out of control, all right.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
They're they're concerned with I guess tour buses going through
burned out areas in Pacific Palisades exactly.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
So La City Council just yesterday in this long meeting.
You know they're taking a month off.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Oh I didn't know that. Yeah, they deserve it, right,
sure do. Yeah, they take July off every year.
Speaker 8 (11:14):
So the meeting before that is like one hundred and
fifty items that they have to go through. So this
was one of them, was the situation of the palisades,
which you may recall in January suffered a devastating wildfire.
And the thing is is it's just recently reopened to
the public. You know, did the general folks who you
might like to head back over there? But people are
(11:35):
still putting the pieces, literally putting the pieces of their
lives back together. And it seems some entrepreneurial folks have
taken advantage of the situation by offering disaster tours and
giving people the opportunity to pay them to go on
a little drive through the palisades to see what's happened.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Okay, here's why I don't mind it. I understand. Look,
if I live there, i'd be pissed. But I don't
live there. But here's why I don't mind that. Because
I went to us San Anita about four weeks five
weeks after the fire raged throughout the Diana of the
Eating Fire, and as many reporters as told me what
happened as many times I saw it on TV, I
was not ready and I was shocked by how devastating
(12:14):
it really is. So I think the more people that
go in and see how devastating it is, maybe there's
more sympathy and more empathy for those people trying to
rebuild and that empathy and that's sort of you know,
caring for those people spreads around the country. It's like,
it's one of the reasons why I'm a big zoo fan.
My daughter, I took her to the zoo, i'd say
two or three times a week. We had a you know,
(12:35):
an annual pass. And she's the most she's the most,
the warmest and most friendliest and most pro animal personal
world because you got to see those animals up front
in person.
Speaker 8 (12:45):
Yeah, there's certainly something to seeing it, but if you're
just driving through a burn zone on your way to
the racetrack, it's different than maybe stopping and gawking and
oohing and awing. If the birthday boy has this sound bite,
I'd like you to hear what Councilman Tracy Park has
to say about it.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
All right, Tracy Park, who is one of the Saner
council members. I believe some have said, okay, all right,
here she goes.
Speaker 9 (13:07):
Pacific Palisades reopened to the public on June fourteenth, and sadly,
since that time, my office and others have received numerous
reports about commercial tour operators conducting disaster tours in the
Pacific Palisades disaster area. These are people that are looking
(13:30):
to profit off of destruction and other people's losses. It's
really gross and it needs to be stopped.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
She says, it's gross and needs to be stopped.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
But let me say to your point, I was there
in the scenes covering these fires, both in Altadena and
in Palisades. During the fires and in the immediate aftermath
of it. This shocking silence that hung over those areas.
I'll never forget, and I do remember thinking at the time,
people need to see this. People need to see this
(14:03):
so that we don't forget the dangers of wildfires and
that there were communities here that are now gone. There
could be tours, you know, there could be Is there
a better way to do it? Is there able to
do it with a sense of honor and memory? And
maybe if there is any commercial component to it, can
(14:26):
that money go towards helping somebody who's been negatively impacted
by those fires or an organization. That's one thing, But
it seems like these folks have sort of swooped into
a neighborhood while it's still trying to get its life
back together, and that's been the problem. So the deal
is they are now restricted from doing these tours as
long as there is a local declaration of an emergency,
(14:48):
and once that expires, you might have these tours again. However,
Councilwoman Park says she's hoping to make those restrictions permanent.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Well, you know what Michael Monks's weathers, he's on Saturday
from seven to nine pm. I you know, there's a
classy way to do it. Maybe some of the money
goes towards I don't know the fire victims, but I
do understand you in you know, if you live in
Palisades and this bus comes by with no top on
it and a bunch of leather seats, a bunch of
out of town is and you just here. That was
(15:18):
Don King's house and I caught fire right before Tom
Hanks as we look over here, Larry King got burned
out of that home.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
You know, you don't want to hear that. But you
could do that on the weekends. You'd be good at that.
I think I could do it. You'd be good.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
But it's always been a dilemma. You've been in the
news of journalism for a long time. Something happened about
twelve fourteen years ago I think up in Ventura, there's
a big flood and then big landslide and there are
twelve homes that were destroyed. And immediately, ABC, NBC, CBS,
everybody went up there, KTLA, kt TV and they were
doing you know, wall to wall coverage on this, and
(15:50):
one of the local homeowners said, you know, we'd like
you to get out of here because we're going through morning.
We've lost some people here, we lost a lot of homes,
and we wanted, you know, we want to get on
with our and the reporter said, he said, look, there's
no way you're gonna get enough funding to fix this
area unless we are here and it's being broadcast every day.
(16:11):
That's when the FEDS react, and that's when they write
you a big check.
Speaker 8 (16:14):
And he's right, Yeah, there's something too, empathy that can
be developed by experience. The more you know somebody, the
more you know an area, the more you tend to
relate to it. And certainly, seeing the destruction of these
wildfires that hit La County and multiple spots, it's different
than seeing the images. I mean, the images were breathtaking.
People across the country and I know folks who are
listening no matter where you live in southern California, if
(16:35):
you have friends or family anywhere in the country, they
were texting you knowing that you were somewhere in the
line of this fire, so you know that this was
hitting people across the world. Sure, people saw these images.
There's nothing like seeing it up close. I think people
should see it. I think people should see it right.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
And it's not only seeing it, it's hearing it, like
you said exactly, and smelling it. It still smells like
burned airy. You don't hear any birds, You don't hear anything.
It's early quiet, and you just hear like creaking of
metal that is, you know, or wood that's fly you know,
it's floating around there.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
It's ann it's like a like another planet.
Speaker 8 (17:10):
Yeah, but it's how much time needs to pass before
there's a respectable way to do that. And people are
busy right now. Debris is still being removed. People are
starting to haul stuff up to rebuild their homes. So
it's it's tough. It is a public street. Those are
public streets, right, They don't belong to the Palisades homeowners.
Those are public streets.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
And then on lesser news here less important or maybe
more important I don't know that the City Council is
going to ban the C word and the N word.
Is that for speakers or council members.
Speaker 8 (17:40):
You know, as as much as you might dislike the
council members, they're not very profane. I know it's become
in vogue for presidents and senators and congress members to
drop F bombs and S words and those sorts of things.
It doesn't really happen in La City Hall except for
some of the gadflies that show up at every single meeta.
I know they've been working on this for months. They
finally adopted this also in that marathon meeting that took
(18:01):
place yesterday. So no more C word, no more inward.
I know you were planning to go with their next
meeting in August and maybe gonna blast a way.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Buddy, Thanks for coming in. Have a great Fourth of July.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
And we do this same Thank you, Michael Monks every
Saturday from seven to nine p m. And then now
again on Sunday. I think it too. Are you doing
a double shift this weekend? Same show? Okay, my kind
of guy. All right, we live on kf I am
six forty. Don't forget Kershaw Clayton Kershaw is going to
have a an historic night tonight at Dodger Stadium. He'll
(18:32):
reach his three thousand strikeout and David Vassday will come
on at five oh five to talk about it. But
get in your car and get to the stadium before
you miss out on that.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
If you got tickets.
Speaker 7 (18:41):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I don't believe we've had the cenator on before on
the show, So welcome for the first time.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Senator Tony Strickland. How are you, sir?
Speaker 2 (18:56):
I'm fantastic. How are you doing?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Oh man?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
I couldn't be bed well, I could be better. I
could be living in a state outside of California.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Well, isn't that a shame?
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Isn't that horrible?
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Yes? We live in an oasis and people are moving
to the middle of the desert in Arizona and they're
going to the humidity of Florida. When we my wife
asked me where do we go on vacation? I said,
everybody in the world comes here. That's right, because we
have the best weather. But now everybody's moving here for
the out of here because of policies in Sacramento.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Well, you know what, I was talking to Brian Long,
our boss here at KFI, and and he said it correctly.
There's really only two people in this country. People have
moved out of California and people that can't wait to
get back to California.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Well, and again, it's a shame. It's first time since
the gold Rush that our state has more people leaving
than coming in.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
And that's horrible only.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Because of policies of Gavin Newsom, the super Majority and
the Democrats to think that people will leave this state
and how beautiful it is to go to humidity or
the cold weather. It's it's shame, shame. I love California.
I do too, And so I'm here trying to make
(20:07):
California golden again and trying to turn it back around
to common sense.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Okay, so we've got gas prices. You know, there's a
lot of people, including my wife, that thought gas prices
on July first, we're gonna go up sixty sixty five cents.
I'm like, no, it's just a dollar. I mean, it's
a it's a penny and a half or a penny
and I don't know, three fifths whatever, But in the
future it is going to go up a lot more,
isn't that correct?
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Well, that's absolutely correct. In fact, it's almost a perfect storm.
It's been going up every year. We actually, let's start here,
we pay a dollar fifty more per gallon on average,
and than the regul than the rest of the country.
In fact, if you go to Oklahoma today, it's two
dollars and seventy five cents a gallon. Wow, And that's today.
(20:53):
Now it's moving up because of July first. Every every
goly first. It's been going up since twenty seventeen, and
Governor knew Some passed a regulatory program that will increase
projection gas prices up to another sixty five cents. And
then on top of it, because over regulation in California,
Valero and Phillip sixty six now announced they're closing down
(21:15):
the refineries in California. That's twenty percent of our state
oil production. So USC projects at gas prices their studies
that it could be upwards to eight dollars a gallon
of gas next yearable. So it's almost a perfect storm
with the regulatory with the taxes, and when you talk
about taxes. You know, since twenty seventeen, the XIS tax
(21:38):
has gone up two hundred and fifty three percent. And
so what I'm saying is the state legislator, we have
the power to stop these increases. I call Gavin Newsom
from a different part of history. He's like Marie Antoinette.
She doesn't care about those people who are living paycheck
to paycheck. They can't afford these gas prices. And that's
(21:59):
who high gas prices hurt the most. People will live
in paycheck or paycheck just trying to make ends meet,
and these high gas prices fall disproportionately are those working
Californian families?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
All right?
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Senator Tony Strickland is with us. Let me ask you
a question, since you're more familiar with Sacramento than I am.
When a big company like Tesla or the Refineries, or
nest Lee or whoever is moving out Toyota, whoever moves
out of California, and you find out in Sacramento that
they're moving, do you guys have like an emergency squad
or a group of people that are sent out to
(22:30):
try to stop that from happening.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
The governor does not, and in fact, you'll see governor
some other states coming in poaching, the governor of Texas,
the governor of Florida. They come in and try to
poach our big businesses, and they talked about the bottom line,
we need to do whatever we can. But you know,
for example, I've had businesses talk to me and these
(22:54):
aren't like easy decisions for people because a lot of
their employees want to live in California. But the bottom
line is if we're not competitive in a regulatory or
attacks and affordability here's the big thing. We have affordability
crisis in California, and you can move out of here,
sell your home in a modest home, and really live
large in another state. And more and more employers are
(23:18):
asking their employees and they're agreeing to go because they
can't afford They can't afford everything. Energy costs, the housing costs.
You know, everything costs more here in California because we're overregulated.
And that's that's why people move where their job goes.
My brother, for example, my brother, he wanted to stay
here in California, but his job moved to Jacksonville, Florida,
(23:39):
And the governor of jackson the governor of Florida. There
offer incentives for them to come. And my brother wanted
to stay here, but his job moved and he moved
from a modest place. Now he lives a lot, a
lot better of a lifestyle. Although I will say I
want to go visit him. My sweat when I eat,
(23:59):
But you know what, this is horrible. I want to
keep those jobs hearing.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
I want to And we have the good news about California. Look,
I love the state. We have the ability to be
our own country if we wanted to, because we have
the natural resources here. Sure to be energy independent here,
we have a lot.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Why don't we do that? Why don't we do that?
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Yes, exactly, exactly, that's what I'm pushing for. We should
be energy independent. We should also you know, we have
different we have Hollywood, we have high tech, we have biotech,
we have the.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Most beautiful coast line in the world.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Exactly, And there's no reason why and that people shouldn't
stay in California. And that's why I'm fighting. That's why
I got elect to the state Senate because I want
I want us to fight for those jobs and keep
those jobs here and improve our quality of life for
all California residents.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
And I think it's gonna be a tough, tough run.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I appreciate you coming on with us, SATRA to have
a great Fourth of July, and we'll talk to you again.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Well, And if I can urge your listeners to go
to type in my name, sat Tony Strickland. There's a
website and petition that I'm getting signed to make sure
that we stop the gas tax and do what we
can to lower these gas prices. Promotors around California.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Excellent, we'll promote that for you. Thanks Bob, thank you,
thank you having me on.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
All right, Tony Strickland, I go to the website, just
put in his name in Google. You'll find it and
sign the petition to stop the gas price gas taxes.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
It's not you know, nothing works, So I don't know.
He can go if you want.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
No.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
I've been I've signed a lot of crap and I
still you know, nothing wrong, nothing that's.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Right, So I don't know. I guess we'll all go
down with the ship together.
Speaker 7 (25:51):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun You're on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
We just celebrated steph Ush's birthday. He turned turns thirty
seven today, and Bellio is always very sweet to think
of everybody. She gets the cake, she gets pizza, she
gets a little gift, she gets a card.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
BELLYO, you're You're very good to everybody. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Yeah, and I And the biggest laugh out there was
when I said, hey, did you make that cake? And
everybody laughed, like I could make that. You could easily
make that cake.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
Total make that cake.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
And and I think I think you could. I think
you could. I think you have those skills. I think
she could.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
I haven't seen any evidence of it, but I think
you do.
Speaker 4 (26:33):
What's funny the two of you laughed really hard when
somebody suggested I made it.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
No, No, I I suggest no. See you were looking
at the cake and you didn't see it. I said,
I think Bellio made it. And everybody laughed at you. Yeah,
and then and I thought that was odd. That's an
insult that they don't think you can make that cake. Yeah,
I think you could. And then you got pissed.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I was I was annoyed, okay, and annoyed.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Turn around and you gave stephusha piece and then you
took it back from him to go, oh, you probably
want a much bigger one. Yeah, was so really good though. Yeah,
but it's just real a lot of tension in that
in that room, you know.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
And it's like, I just wanted to have a nice
little party. I didn't need the comments. I get it
from the back.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I get it. And you're out of the gift giving game,
aren't you. I thought. I was, Oh, you're back turns turns,
I'm back in. I'm back in.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Bellio came in about six months ago. She was, shees,
I'm out of the gift giving game. I'm like, what
that was?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
I meant it, But that doesn't seem like you. You're
very giving, I know.
Speaker 10 (27:40):
But it's a lot of pressure happen had to hear
from when I walked down the hallway. I hear money
scream out of their studio.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
The pizzas cold, and the cheese iseal.
Speaker 10 (27:57):
Sorry, and then somebody and then I walked to get
some utensils, and I heard somebody go, strawberrys on a cake.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Oh my god, I know, right, can you hold them
on second?
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Good? Sure?
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Take your look outside. Okay, take a look it's there.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
What the party bus. We'll take an Josha Stadium. It
just pulled up. Man, that thing's huge.
Speaker 5 (28:26):
It's gigantic, but it is so cool inside.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Oh my god, look at that. You have so much fun.
All right, that's great.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
We're going to the Dodger game tonight to celebrate with
Clayton Kershaw, and I think we've gotten permission to go
into the locker room afterwards. So while everybody's trying to
get out of Dodger Stadium, we're going to go into
the locker room and see if.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
We're gonna give his goggles.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, But you know, do you think
they'll stop the game when Kershaw hits his three thousand?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yes, but they do, yeah, yeah, they got.
Speaker 11 (28:56):
A twentieth player ever to do it. Come on, is
that right? And I think he's done a quicker than
almost anybody. I don't know how many innings, but we'll
ask David Vasse. Coming up at five pm two night,
so about ten minutes away.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
This is really good. That cake? Yeah, where's that from? Bellio? Oh? Pavilions, Oh,
Pavilions is great.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
I got an email here from a guy named Ken
Carlton Okay Ken in Santa Monica and he gave me
his phone number and his email address.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
I respect that so I can torture him.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
I've been listening for here's from Ken in Santa Monica.
I've been listening for fifteen years, and I'm shocked that
your boss only lets you have conservative guests on your show,
like Tony Strickland. How about the other half of your listeners.
How about having a man or a woman who is
a little more liberal or are you afraid of that side?
(29:52):
Now is the time where I have to go through
with this man in Santa Monica. Yeah, Santa Monica, and
give him the list of people we have on the show.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Who are liberals or Democrats? You ready? Ken?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
I hope you're listening. Billy Ray, Mark Thompson, Chris Little,
Alex Michaelson, Alex Stone, Neil Sevadra, Mike Gotto, Gary Hoffman,
Shannon Farron, Aaron ben Mosch. It's an old list. Matt
(30:29):
Money Smith, Ornie Adams, Jay Leno, Amy King, Bill Handle,
all the sheriffs from La County, they're all all liberals.
Who else is on the list? Victor brick Jacobs, Kaylos
was it Callina Astrinos? Remember we used ever on She
(30:51):
was big Democrats, David Lazarus, Colleen Williams, Fritz Coleman, Charlie Fogg,
Eric Garcetti, Mark Brown, and the list goes on and on.
We have almost Pat from a CBS sheriff, Van A Wave,
A Bob Bafford.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Who else is on that list?
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Chris Pitcher, Fred Rogan, Paul Thomas Anderson, and we'll finish
the list with Lisa Gudra. So everybody we have on
this show, outside of some politicians, is a Democrat or
a liberal Democrat. Every single person. So Ken, either you
(31:40):
don't listen that carefully or you're dumb as rocks.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Those are the only two options.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
And if you did listen more carefully, everybody on the
show that comes on, with the exception of Tony Strickland
that we had on and Steve Garvey, and we Hadeve
Garvey on. You know, we sort of knew he wasn't
going to win, but I'm a huge Dodger fan and
we had to take advantage of that having Steve Garvey
on to talk about baseball for an hour, and then
(32:11):
all we had to do is promote his website.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
No brainer.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
And another one is Stephen Cluebeck, right, is another big Democrat.
So everybody we have on the show, except for Tony
Strickland and Steve Garvey, they're all liberals, including everybody on
the show, Bellio, Krozier, Steph Fusche and Angel everybody far
left wing nuts. And if anybody who I just mentioned
(32:39):
wants to clear that up, I will be more than
happy to and call you a huge Donald Trump conservative.
So if you want to text me, I'll be more
than happy to change it to that as well. Probably
not gonna get a lot of texts on that. All right, Well,
we are very close to Dodger game. It starts in
one in two hours. Is it a no, it's an
(33:00):
Is it What time does that game started? Seven o'clock? Yeah,
so we're about two hours away from the start of
that game, and you'll want to be there for the
first inning. You want to get there early, so get
in the car now, don't wait till it's too late.
If you get there by a third or fourth inning,
Clayton Kershaw might have already celebrated three thousand strikeout. This
(33:20):
is gonna be a big deal at Dodgers datum retime, huge,
huge deal. So get out to that stadium. And get there,
get your hot dog, at your beer, get in your
seat and enjoy that.
Speaker 3 (33:28):
We're live on KFI AM six forty.

it to uh, you know, Matt money Smith and Petros
And they said, no, those guys are you know, they're
they're they're not into the Dodgers like you are. And
(02:32):
I'm like, oh, that's kind of cool. I've been a
Dodger fan since I was born. My first Dodger game,
I was nine. It was nineteen sixty eight or sixty nine.
I can't figure it out. Uh, I said sixty nine.
My dad thought it was sixty eight, but it was
against the God I remember who it was against. But
I do remember sitting way, way, way way on top
and it was little bat night and I with a
(02:54):
one with a friend of mine from UH school, and
my brothers and my sister and we there's like nine
of us.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
We sat up in the top.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Deck, top deck at Dodger Stadium my very first game,
and we got a little tiny, like a twelve inch bat.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
That I had for a long time. And I don't
know what I've done with it since.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
But even as a kid, I remember, you know, saying
to my dad and I get Dad, you know you're
making a couple of bucks here. No way to move
down here where we can see these actual players man
that upper deck, that sun hits Oh my god, and it's.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Steep as hell.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
I mean, you know, if you have any kind of
issues with height or you know height four yeah, right,
But that's gonna be a big night tonight. We've got
David Vasse coming on at five oh five. Kershaw is
going to get his three thousand strikeout tonight. That's going
to be a big, huge deal. That stadium is going
(03:51):
to be packed. There are people listening to KFI right
now who are on their way to that stadium, on
the way to Dodger Stadium right now, listening to KFI
and trying to get in there because you don't want
to be late to this game.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
You know, if you would kick you.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
You'll kick yourself in the ass if you get there
in the second or third inning and the celebration's over.
So whatever you got to do, you got to get
to that stadium. Leave now, don't don't take a chance
with traffic. This is the day before the July fourth
weekend that starts tomorrow. A lot of people are taking
tomorrow off, so traffic is going to be gruesome. Angel,
(04:27):
How is it around Dodger Stadium? Is it Is it
horrible or is it breatheable? What's going on?
Speaker 5 (04:34):
It's already gruesome. I'm looking at Stadium.
Speaker 6 (04:36):
Way and it is jam packed right now between Morton
Avenue and the one ten. So a lot of people
are heading into Dodger Stadium early so that they don't
miss a play.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
And what about the feeder freeways if you know what
I mean, you know one ten, five, one oh one.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Wink wink the feeder if you know what I mean, I.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Don't know about the wings. Just give me the.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Traffic so too, southbound is slowing out of Glacel Park.
This is getting away from Fletcher Drive. It'll get worse
in just a little while. So it's doing And now
that five's yeah, you're welcome. The south five loads up
out of Burbank from Alameda, so that's going to fill
in as well. Even the one ten southbound, it's looking
(05:22):
pretty decent right now getting out of South Pasadena, but
that tends to fill up as well as we get
a little closer to game time. But you know, it
also really has unusual slowing on a one night. The
one oh one, Yes, the one o one out of
Calabasas you're already.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So people, so Richie's from Calabasas and Hidden Hills are
going to the game.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
They got a big suite.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
They're in bumper to bumper traffic from Hidden Hills to
the stadium.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
Oh, they're out of Agora Hills a Liberty Canyon. Oh
my god, just to the one seventy one thirty four.
You're still okay for a little bit through the coin
A Pass, but right now delayser are filling in at
just a bell, just a bell to Mulholland.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Oh that's horrible. Yeah, that's the worst. Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
The North five out of Norwalk is getting busy as well,
all the way from Rose Crams.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Okay, well, we're gonna give you updates all night long
because you've got to get into that stadium before Kershaw
strikes three people out, and he may do it in
the first inning. And so you know, if you got
a suite. I'm looking at your right, Angel, I'm looking
at the traffic here. Not that I didn't you know,
suspect that you had, you know you were talking about,
(06:37):
but you're right, that is coming out of I mean literally, yeah,
Gora Hills, all the way through the valley and you
get a little tiny break in tarzan on for a
little bit and then you're done again.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
Oh that'll be solid in less than an hour.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Oh the worst.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
All right, get to the stadium. Get to that stadium
for Kershaw. He's gonna have a three thousand strikeout tonight
at Dodgers Stadium. That is gonna be a big deal.
And we're gonna have David Vassa on to talk about
all the details. And I'll be there. I'm gonna try
to slide out HEREUND six thirty. We pre recorded the
last half hour because the Dodgers were nice enough to
(07:17):
give us the suite, and I think we're sharing it.
I think Big Boy, Big Boy, a lot of KFI
or a lot of iHeart shows are going to be there.
I think Booker and Striker are going. I heard that's true.
Some of the guys and gals kiss FM. I know
that some of the gals from Coast one on three
(07:40):
point bore. Everyone's going, Petro some money. I don't think
they're going now. I find it odd that there weren't
on that list. There's something going on.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
They do the Dodger broadcast. They talk about the Dodgers
all the time, and then one of the only shows
in this building. I know Fred Rogan's going with David
Vassay is going to be there. Tim Kates isn't going
because he couldn't find a ticket, right, I mean that
guy works for the Dodgers. He has a pass and
he can't find a ticket. Mighty, it's wrong with that guy.
(08:15):
Then the other big news we're going to cover and
come back. Did he Evidently he did not. When we
come back, P Diddy is going to be free. Maybe maybe,
but he's he was found not guilty on the really
extreme charges that could have end up book putting him
in prison for the rest of his life. But he
(08:35):
still might get twenty years. I find that astonishing for
you know, simple prostitution you get twenty years or I
don't know, you know, state by state.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
I find it really odd that he's going to get
that bunch of time.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
But the United States didn't put on a good enough
case and the jury saw the jurors saw it a
different way. So it came back all the details in
P Diddy's case and when will his first freak off
party happen? Because I know Steph buche wants to a
slide in there. Would you go to the a P.
Diddy freak off party? I would uber them out of there.
(09:12):
Oh well, you wouldn't go on attend. That's not your style,
not my style.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Bell Yo. Would you go to a freak off No?
Speaker 1 (09:18):
No, no, no fun gal to hang out with Conway?
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Would you go a heartbeat? A heart beat?
Speaker 1 (09:29):
I was bummed that he was going to be incarcerated.
Were there going to be any more of those parties?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Ain't you?
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Would you go to a freak off party? Oh?
Speaker 5 (09:36):
No, but I heard he invited the jury.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
No, it's that right, That often happens in these cases,
you know where where they end up inviting the jury
to a big dinner or big party afterwards.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
That's great, all right, all right, we'll talk about p day.
We'll come back.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
It's Conway Show, Big Day here, Dodgers, pe Daddy, step
Fosh's birthday, Good morning, good afternoon and good night, The Trifecta,
the Triple Crown, the hat trick of news.
Speaker 7 (10:08):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
It's it's like Martin and Lewis. I mean, if you
close your eyes, you know. All right, Monks is with us?
By the way, did you say happy birthday to our
our very own stuff?
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oosh.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
I gave him a big kiss, and oh, I gotta
go to HR after this. Yeah, he liked it though.
It was a wonder. I liked it, very very soft.
I kissed the boy and I liked it. Is something
like that.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Okay, all right, So Monks, we've got problems in downtown again.
I love the fact that you live there and you
and you come to Burbank and snitch on him all
the time.
Speaker 8 (10:52):
I love snitching on it. They need to be snitched on.
It's out of control, all right.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
They're they're concerned with I guess tour buses going through
burned out areas in Pacific Palisades exactly.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
So La City Council just yesterday in this long meeting.
You know they're taking a month off.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Oh I didn't know that. Yeah, they deserve it, right,
sure do. Yeah, they take July off every year.
Speaker 8 (11:14):
So the meeting before that is like one hundred and
fifty items that they have to go through. So this
was one of them, was the situation of the palisades,
which you may recall in January suffered a devastating wildfire.
And the thing is is it's just recently reopened to
the public. You know, did the general folks who you
might like to head back over there? But people are
(11:35):
still putting the pieces, literally putting the pieces of their
lives back together. And it seems some entrepreneurial folks have
taken advantage of the situation by offering disaster tours and
giving people the opportunity to pay them to go on
a little drive through the palisades to see what's happened.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Okay, here's why I don't mind it. I understand. Look,
if I live there, i'd be pissed. But I don't
live there. But here's why I don't mind that. Because
I went to us San Anita about four weeks five
weeks after the fire raged throughout the Diana of the
Eating Fire, and as many reporters as told me what
happened as many times I saw it on TV, I
was not ready and I was shocked by how devastating
(12:14):
it really is. So I think the more people that
go in and see how devastating it is, maybe there's
more sympathy and more empathy for those people trying to
rebuild and that empathy and that's sort of you know,
caring for those people spreads around the country. It's like,
it's one of the reasons why I'm a big zoo fan.
My daughter, I took her to the zoo, i'd say
two or three times a week. We had a you know,
(12:35):
an annual pass. And she's the most she's the most,
the warmest and most friendliest and most pro animal personal
world because you got to see those animals up front
in person.
Speaker 8 (12:45):
Yeah, there's certainly something to seeing it, but if you're
just driving through a burn zone on your way to
the racetrack, it's different than maybe stopping and gawking and
oohing and awing. If the birthday boy has this sound bite,
I'd like you to hear what Councilman Tracy Park has
to say about it.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
All right, Tracy Park, who is one of the Saner
council members. I believe some have said, okay, all right,
here she goes.
Speaker 9 (13:07):
Pacific Palisades reopened to the public on June fourteenth, and sadly,
since that time, my office and others have received numerous
reports about commercial tour operators conducting disaster tours in the
Pacific Palisades disaster area. These are people that are looking
(13:30):
to profit off of destruction and other people's losses. It's
really gross and it needs to be stopped.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
She says, it's gross and needs to be stopped.
Speaker 8 (13:40):
But let me say to your point, I was there
in the scenes covering these fires, both in Altadena and
in Palisades. During the fires and in the immediate aftermath
of it. This shocking silence that hung over those areas.
I'll never forget, and I do remember thinking at the time,
people need to see this. People need to see this
(14:03):
so that we don't forget the dangers of wildfires and
that there were communities here that are now gone. There
could be tours, you know, there could be Is there
a better way to do it? Is there able to
do it with a sense of honor and memory? And
maybe if there is any commercial component to it, can
(14:26):
that money go towards helping somebody who's been negatively impacted
by those fires or an organization. That's one thing, But
it seems like these folks have sort of swooped into
a neighborhood while it's still trying to get its life
back together, and that's been the problem. So the deal
is they are now restricted from doing these tours as
long as there is a local declaration of an emergency,
(14:48):
and once that expires, you might have these tours again. However,
Councilwoman Park says she's hoping to make those restrictions permanent.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Well, you know what Michael Monks's weathers, he's on Saturday
from seven to nine pm. I you know, there's a
classy way to do it. Maybe some of the money
goes towards I don't know the fire victims, but I
do understand you in you know, if you live in
Palisades and this bus comes by with no top on
it and a bunch of leather seats, a bunch of
out of town is and you just here. That was
(15:18):
Don King's house and I caught fire right before Tom
Hanks as we look over here, Larry King got burned
out of that home.
Speaker 3 (15:25):
You know, you don't want to hear that. But you
could do that on the weekends. You'd be good at that.
I think I could do it. You'd be good.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
But it's always been a dilemma. You've been in the
news of journalism for a long time. Something happened about
twelve fourteen years ago I think up in Ventura, there's
a big flood and then big landslide and there are
twelve homes that were destroyed. And immediately, ABC, NBC, CBS,
everybody went up there, KTLA, kt TV and they were
doing you know, wall to wall coverage on this, and
(15:50):
one of the local homeowners said, you know, we'd like
you to get out of here because we're going through morning.
We've lost some people here, we lost a lot of homes,
and we wanted, you know, we want to get on
with our and the reporter said, he said, look, there's
no way you're gonna get enough funding to fix this
area unless we are here and it's being broadcast every day.
(16:11):
That's when the FEDS react, and that's when they write
you a big check.
Speaker 8 (16:14):
And he's right, Yeah, there's something too, empathy that can
be developed by experience. The more you know somebody, the
more you know an area, the more you tend to
relate to it. And certainly, seeing the destruction of these
wildfires that hit La County and multiple spots, it's different
than seeing the images. I mean, the images were breathtaking.
People across the country and I know folks who are
listening no matter where you live in southern California, if
(16:35):
you have friends or family anywhere in the country, they
were texting you knowing that you were somewhere in the
line of this fire, so you know that this was
hitting people across the world. Sure, people saw these images.
There's nothing like seeing it up close. I think people
should see it. I think people should see it right.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
And it's not only seeing it, it's hearing it, like
you said exactly, and smelling it. It still smells like
burned airy. You don't hear any birds, You don't hear anything.
It's early quiet, and you just hear like creaking of
metal that is, you know, or wood that's fly you know,
it's floating around there.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
It's ann it's like a like another planet.
Speaker 8 (17:10):
Yeah, but it's how much time needs to pass before
there's a respectable way to do that. And people are
busy right now. Debris is still being removed. People are
starting to haul stuff up to rebuild their homes. So
it's it's tough. It is a public street. Those are
public streets, right, They don't belong to the Palisades homeowners.
Those are public streets.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
And then on lesser news here less important or maybe
more important I don't know that the City Council is
going to ban the C word and the N word.
Is that for speakers or council members.
Speaker 8 (17:40):
You know, as as much as you might dislike the
council members, they're not very profane. I know it's become
in vogue for presidents and senators and congress members to
drop F bombs and S words and those sorts of things.
It doesn't really happen in La City Hall except for
some of the gadflies that show up at every single meeta.
I know they've been working on this for months. They
finally adopted this also in that marathon meeting that took
(18:01):
place yesterday. So no more C word, no more inward.
I know you were planning to go with their next
meeting in August and maybe gonna blast a way.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
Buddy, Thanks for coming in. Have a great Fourth of July.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
And we do this same Thank you, Michael Monks every
Saturday from seven to nine p m. And then now
again on Sunday. I think it too. Are you doing
a double shift this weekend? Same show? Okay, my kind
of guy. All right, we live on kf I am
six forty. Don't forget Kershaw Clayton Kershaw is going to
have a an historic night tonight at Dodger Stadium. He'll
(18:32):
reach his three thousand strikeout and David Vassday will come
on at five oh five to talk about it. But
get in your car and get to the stadium before
you miss out on that.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
If you got tickets.
Speaker 7 (18:41):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I don't believe we've had the cenator on before on
the show, So welcome for the first time.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Senator Tony Strickland. How are you, sir?
Speaker 2 (18:56):
I'm fantastic. How are you doing?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
Oh man?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
I couldn't be bed well, I could be better. I
could be living in a state outside of California.
Speaker 3 (19:03):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (19:05):
Well, isn't that a shame?
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Isn't that horrible?
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Yes? We live in an oasis and people are moving
to the middle of the desert in Arizona and they're
going to the humidity of Florida. When we my wife
asked me where do we go on vacation? I said,
everybody in the world comes here. That's right, because we
have the best weather. But now everybody's moving here for
the out of here because of policies in Sacramento.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Well, you know what, I was talking to Brian Long,
our boss here at KFI, and and he said it correctly.
There's really only two people in this country. People have
moved out of California and people that can't wait to
get back to California.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Well, and again, it's a shame. It's first time since
the gold Rush that our state has more people leaving
than coming in.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
And that's horrible only.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Because of policies of Gavin Newsom, the super Majority and
the Democrats to think that people will leave this state
and how beautiful it is to go to humidity or
the cold weather. It's it's shame, shame. I love California.
I do too, And so I'm here trying to make
(20:07):
California golden again and trying to turn it back around
to common sense.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
Okay, so we've got gas prices. You know, there's a
lot of people, including my wife, that thought gas prices
on July first, we're gonna go up sixty sixty five cents.
I'm like, no, it's just a dollar. I mean, it's
a it's a penny and a half or a penny
and I don't know, three fifths whatever, But in the
future it is going to go up a lot more,
isn't that correct?
Speaker 2 (20:32):
Well, that's absolutely correct. In fact, it's almost a perfect storm.
It's been going up every year. We actually, let's start here,
we pay a dollar fifty more per gallon on average,
and than the regul than the rest of the country.
In fact, if you go to Oklahoma today, it's two
dollars and seventy five cents a gallon. Wow, And that's today.
(20:53):
Now it's moving up because of July first. Every every
goly first. It's been going up since twenty seventeen, and
Governor knew Some passed a regulatory program that will increase
projection gas prices up to another sixty five cents. And
then on top of it, because over regulation in California,
Valero and Phillip sixty six now announced they're closing down
(21:15):
the refineries in California. That's twenty percent of our state
oil production. So USC projects at gas prices their studies
that it could be upwards to eight dollars a gallon
of gas next yearable. So it's almost a perfect storm
with the regulatory with the taxes, and when you talk
about taxes. You know, since twenty seventeen, the XIS tax
(21:38):
has gone up two hundred and fifty three percent. And
so what I'm saying is the state legislator, we have
the power to stop these increases. I call Gavin Newsom
from a different part of history. He's like Marie Antoinette.
She doesn't care about those people who are living paycheck
to paycheck. They can't afford these gas prices. And that's
(21:59):
who high gas prices hurt the most. People will live
in paycheck or paycheck just trying to make ends meet,
and these high gas prices fall disproportionately are those working
Californian families?
Speaker 3 (22:08):
All right?
Speaker 1 (22:09):
Senator Tony Strickland is with us. Let me ask you
a question, since you're more familiar with Sacramento than I am.
When a big company like Tesla or the Refineries, or
nest Lee or whoever is moving out Toyota, whoever moves
out of California, and you find out in Sacramento that
they're moving, do you guys have like an emergency squad
or a group of people that are sent out to
(22:30):
try to stop that from happening.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
The governor does not, and in fact, you'll see governor
some other states coming in poaching, the governor of Texas,
the governor of Florida. They come in and try to
poach our big businesses, and they talked about the bottom line,
we need to do whatever we can. But you know,
for example, I've had businesses talk to me and these
(22:54):
aren't like easy decisions for people because a lot of
their employees want to live in California. But the bottom
line is if we're not competitive in a regulatory or
attacks and affordability here's the big thing. We have affordability
crisis in California, and you can move out of here,
sell your home in a modest home, and really live
large in another state. And more and more employers are
(23:18):
asking their employees and they're agreeing to go because they
can't afford They can't afford everything. Energy costs, the housing costs.
You know, everything costs more here in California because we're overregulated.
And that's that's why people move where their job goes.
My brother, for example, my brother, he wanted to stay
here in California, but his job moved to Jacksonville, Florida,
(23:39):
And the governor of jackson the governor of Florida. There
offer incentives for them to come. And my brother wanted
to stay here, but his job moved and he moved
from a modest place. Now he lives a lot, a
lot better of a lifestyle. Although I will say I
want to go visit him. My sweat when I eat,
(23:59):
But you know what, this is horrible. I want to
keep those jobs hearing.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
I want to And we have the good news about California. Look,
I love the state. We have the ability to be
our own country if we wanted to, because we have
the natural resources here. Sure to be energy independent here,
we have a lot.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Why don't we do that? Why don't we do that?
Speaker 2 (24:18):
Yes, exactly, exactly, that's what I'm pushing for. We should
be energy independent. We should also you know, we have
different we have Hollywood, we have high tech, we have biotech,
we have the.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Most beautiful coast line in the world.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Exactly, And there's no reason why and that people shouldn't
stay in California. And that's why I'm fighting. That's why
I got elect to the state Senate because I want
I want us to fight for those jobs and keep
those jobs here and improve our quality of life for
all California residents.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
And I think it's gonna be a tough, tough run.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I appreciate you coming on with us, SATRA to have
a great Fourth of July, and we'll talk to you again.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
Well, And if I can urge your listeners to go
to type in my name, sat Tony Strickland. There's a
website and petition that I'm getting signed to make sure
that we stop the gas tax and do what we
can to lower these gas prices. Promotors around California.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Excellent, we'll promote that for you. Thanks Bob, thank you,
thank you having me on.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
All right, Tony Strickland, I go to the website, just
put in his name in Google. You'll find it and
sign the petition to stop the gas price gas taxes.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
It's not you know, nothing works, So I don't know.
He can go if you want.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
No.
Speaker 3 (25:37):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
I've been I've signed a lot of crap and I
still you know, nothing wrong, nothing that's.
Speaker 3 (25:46):
Right, So I don't know. I guess we'll all go
down with the ship together.
Speaker 7 (25:51):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun You're on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
We just celebrated steph Ush's birthday. He turned turns thirty
seven today, and Bellio is always very sweet to think
of everybody. She gets the cake, she gets pizza, she
gets a little gift, she gets a card.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
BELLYO, you're You're very good to everybody. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
Yeah, and I And the biggest laugh out there was
when I said, hey, did you make that cake? And
everybody laughed, like I could make that. You could easily
make that cake.
Speaker 5 (26:21):
Total make that cake.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
And and I think I think you could. I think
you could. I think you have those skills. I think
she could.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
I haven't seen any evidence of it, but I think
you do.
Speaker 4 (26:33):
What's funny the two of you laughed really hard when
somebody suggested I made it.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
No, No, I I suggest no. See you were looking
at the cake and you didn't see it. I said,
I think Bellio made it. And everybody laughed at you. Yeah,
and then and I thought that was odd. That's an
insult that they don't think you can make that cake. Yeah,
I think you could. And then you got pissed.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I was I was annoyed, okay, and annoyed.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Turn around and you gave stephusha piece and then you
took it back from him to go, oh, you probably
want a much bigger one. Yeah, was so really good though. Yeah,
but it's just real a lot of tension in that
in that room, you know.
Speaker 4 (27:17):
And it's like, I just wanted to have a nice
little party. I didn't need the comments. I get it
from the back.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I get it. And you're out of the gift giving game,
aren't you. I thought. I was, Oh, you're back turns turns,
I'm back in. I'm back in.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Bellio came in about six months ago. She was, shees,
I'm out of the gift giving game. I'm like, what
that was?
Speaker 3 (27:36):
I meant it, But that doesn't seem like you. You're
very giving, I know.
Speaker 10 (27:40):
But it's a lot of pressure happen had to hear
from when I walked down the hallway. I hear money
scream out of their studio.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
The pizzas cold, and the cheese iseal.
Speaker 10 (27:57):
Sorry, and then somebody and then I walked to get
some utensils, and I heard somebody go, strawberrys on a cake.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Oh my god, I know, right, can you hold them
on second?
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Good? Sure?
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Take your look outside. Okay, take a look it's there.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
What the party bus. We'll take an Josha Stadium. It
just pulled up. Man, that thing's huge.
Speaker 5 (28:26):
It's gigantic, but it is so cool inside.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Oh my god, look at that. You have so much fun.
All right, that's great.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
We're going to the Dodger game tonight to celebrate with
Clayton Kershaw, and I think we've gotten permission to go
into the locker room afterwards. So while everybody's trying to
get out of Dodger Stadium, we're going to go into
the locker room and see if.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
We're gonna give his goggles.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, But you know, do you think
they'll stop the game when Kershaw hits his three thousand?
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yes, but they do, yeah, yeah, they got.
Speaker 11 (28:56):
A twentieth player ever to do it. Come on, is
that right? And I think he's done a quicker than
almost anybody. I don't know how many innings, but we'll
ask David Vasse. Coming up at five pm two night,
so about ten minutes away.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
This is really good. That cake? Yeah, where's that from? Bellio? Oh? Pavilions, Oh,
Pavilions is great.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
I got an email here from a guy named Ken
Carlton Okay Ken in Santa Monica and he gave me
his phone number and his email address.
Speaker 3 (29:26):
I respect that so I can torture him.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
I've been listening for here's from Ken in Santa Monica.
I've been listening for fifteen years, and I'm shocked that
your boss only lets you have conservative guests on your show,
like Tony Strickland. How about the other half of your listeners.
How about having a man or a woman who is
a little more liberal or are you afraid of that side?
(29:52):
Now is the time where I have to go through
with this man in Santa Monica. Yeah, Santa Monica, and
give him the list of people we have on the show.
Speaker 3 (30:04):
Who are liberals or Democrats? You ready? Ken?
Speaker 1 (30:09):
I hope you're listening. Billy Ray, Mark Thompson, Chris Little,
Alex Michaelson, Alex Stone, Neil Sevadra, Mike Gotto, Gary Hoffman,
Shannon Farron, Aaron ben Mosch. It's an old list. Matt
(30:29):
Money Smith, Ornie Adams, Jay Leno, Amy King, Bill Handle,
all the sheriffs from La County, they're all all liberals.
Who else is on the list? Victor brick Jacobs, Kaylos
was it Callina Astrinos? Remember we used ever on She
(30:51):
was big Democrats, David Lazarus, Colleen Williams, Fritz Coleman, Charlie Fogg,
Eric Garcetti, Mark Brown, and the list goes on and on.
We have almost Pat from a CBS sheriff, Van A Wave,
A Bob Bafford.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Who else is on that list?
Speaker 1 (31:16):
Chris Pitcher, Fred Rogan, Paul Thomas Anderson, and we'll finish
the list with Lisa Gudra. So everybody we have on
this show, outside of some politicians, is a Democrat or
a liberal Democrat. Every single person. So Ken, either you
(31:40):
don't listen that carefully or you're dumb as rocks.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Those are the only two options.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
And if you did listen more carefully, everybody on the
show that comes on, with the exception of Tony Strickland
that we had on and Steve Garvey, and we Hadeve
Garvey on. You know, we sort of knew he wasn't
going to win, but I'm a huge Dodger fan and
we had to take advantage of that having Steve Garvey
on to talk about baseball for an hour, and then
(32:11):
all we had to do is promote his website.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
No brainer.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
And another one is Stephen Cluebeck, right, is another big Democrat.
So everybody we have on the show, except for Tony
Strickland and Steve Garvey, they're all liberals, including everybody on
the show, Bellio, Krozier, Steph Fusche and Angel everybody far
left wing nuts. And if anybody who I just mentioned
(32:39):
wants to clear that up, I will be more than
happy to and call you a huge Donald Trump conservative.
So if you want to text me, I'll be more
than happy to change it to that as well. Probably
not gonna get a lot of texts on that. All right, Well,
we are very close to Dodger game. It starts in
one in two hours. Is it a no, it's an
(33:00):
Is it What time does that game started? Seven o'clock? Yeah,
so we're about two hours away from the start of
that game, and you'll want to be there for the
first inning. You want to get there early, so get
in the car now, don't wait till it's too late.
If you get there by a third or fourth inning,
Clayton Kershaw might have already celebrated three thousand strikeout. This
(33:20):
is gonna be a big deal at Dodgers datum retime, huge,
huge deal. So get out to that stadium. And get there,
get your hot dog, at your beer, get in your
seat and enjoy that.
