Many are turning to food banks and zero-interest loans, and some are even driving for Uber or DoorDash between tower shifts to make ends meet. The stress is mounting on an already short-staffed system as controllers hand out flyers urging travelers to pressure lawmakers to end the shutdown. Dodgers vs. Blue Jays Game #5—a pivotal showdown for Los Angeles in the World Series.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KMF I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio apps. Calm down,
We're not out of the World Series yet. There's still
two games, at least two games to be played, one
here in Dodger at Dodgers Stadium in one hour and
one minute from now, and then maybe two in Toronto.
(00:22):
And it would be exciting to see a Game seven
in the World Series as long as the Dodgers won.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Yeah, so the chance of them winning at home is gone.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, it's over it. It ended last night with that
ass kicking, that the that the Blue Jays put on them.
It was over last night. And you know, the entire nation,
the entire nation of the United States and the entire
nation of Canada, they want to see the Dodgers lose.
The only people want to see the Dodgers win are
people listening to me right now and people at the stadium.
(00:53):
Everybody else wants to see him lose, including our first guest,
Alex Dulls.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Maybe seniors. How you Bobb No, Oh, I don't want
the buddy Boddy. Okay, I was gonna Borro in Glendale
last night. I was the only one in there. Every
time the blue days would scar and I was like,
I should be quiet right now.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
This is not good. Everybody was in a Dodger set.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
That's classic. Got the glares. I understand, like Gary and
Shannon are major Giants and forty nine Ers fans, and
Mark Thompson is a forty nine Ers and I think
a Giants fan. But I respect that when you move
to a city and you retain your allegiance to a team,
I love that. I think that's an honest sports fan.
(01:34):
What are dishonest sports fans are? Well, like my mom
who was a Lakers fan forever, huge Dodger van forever.
She moved to Denver. She called me a week later, going,
how about this John Elwade?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
These boys, man, did they kick an ass by? Like
you were there for Like wait, is second there for
one week?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah? But well we'll see tonight.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
We'll see. That was a quick game last night.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
Man.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
They were tired. It seemed like the stadium was tired.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, they fans were exhausted for every reason. And you
know what, and the fans, you know, they keep telling
Like I was listening to David Vasse on the way
home last night, and he kept talking about how the
fans have to get off their ass and get up
on their feet and cheer. But that's not what kind
of game this is. This is a corporate event where
wealthy people go. They shut out the normal fan, and
(02:20):
the normal fans are at home like me, or at
a bar, or at a restaurant like you, cheering the
hell out of them.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Justin Bieber. Yeah, I mean they're all there. Mary Heart.
Was she cheering last night?
Speaker 4 (02:30):
She was there?
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Also, what's his name? The Prince from Santa Barbara with
his dopey wife Megan and yeah, Megan and my I
don't know whatever, the Prince Charles or Andrew or I
don't know what that other dude's name is. Well, Prince Harry. Yeah,
Prince Harry and Megan Marco front row seats. How disgusting
is that.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
I'm just gonna look right now on game time, what
are we looking at? Seventeen thousand dollars if you want to. Okay,
I'm kind of front row, a little bit off to
the left, but.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
See, but Rince Harry and Megan, you know, Princess Meghan
and wherever they're calling her nowadays. That's just a look
at me, you know, in their front row, so people
look at him and keep them in mind every pitch. Yeah,
and it took two seats away from you know, lifelong
Dodger fans. You know, a kid grew up in LA
he's now in his sixties and he's a big Dodger fan.
(03:20):
He's at home with his wife and his you know kids,
watching the game because Meghan and Prince Harry are sitting
in those seats.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Can you imagine you came home to your wife and
you said, I bought Crozier and me some tickets. I
spent almost forty thousand dollars tonight, did, right, But you
know what it includes fees according to the game time apps.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
So see, my wife would know that I'd be lying
because there's no way I can get to hit my
hot hands on forty g. There's no effing way, man,
she has got everything locked out.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Well, the best deal, here's a good one, the upper deck.
Nine hundred and forty five bucks a seat. Oh that's
not bad, that's not bad. Still more than I want
to spend for one seat in the upper deck.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Let him eat cake and watch the series from home.
But you know it is, you know I know, Petro's money.
Talk about this all the time. It is a life
long venture to get there, watch the game, and get out.
It's an it's a twelve hour event, oh yeah, you know,
with traffic and parking, it's.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
And then you add in what night was it? Tuesday night?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yeah? Oh yeah, Tuesday. What it's a six hour and
forty minute game. So let's say, you know, typically you
would leave for that kind of game on a weekday,
you'd leave three hours before first pitch. Yeah yeah, but
typically yeah, maybe two, but probably three because of traffic.
So you left it at at two o'clock, You got
there at four point thirty or four, in your seat
by four, game starts at five, you're out of the
(04:38):
stadium by one o'clock. You're out of the parking lot
by two, your home by three. So it's a it's
a thirteen hour event, that game thirteen hours.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
You get your money's worth, you do you do? That's
a long day.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
And then these are morons who are watching the game
on their TV on their phones, you know, say they
have their phones. They're holding their phone up so they
can take a video. So they're at the stadium. They've
paid twelve one thousand dollars for a seat and they're
watching it on a screen that's three inches by five inches.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
I'm going to any concert, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
I mean people are just they cannot be in the
moment anymore. Kroz is the only one I know that
does is when he goes to an event, he shuts
his phone off and he enjoys the event, him.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
And his Why you Crozer, that's great?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, right? I think also, I think they just skipped
a bill on their charge. That's probably what it was.
All right, what's going on with their traffic controllers. They've
all walked off, they've all quit, they're all on well filled.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
But I think they want to Yeah, because they're mandated
is we've been talking about. They're mandated to go. But
they they now have officially not gotten paid. That their
previous paycheck had a little bit of the pre shut
down money in it, So yesterday was paid ay for
federal employees and they got zero. So they are now
handing out leaflets at airports around the country asking the
(05:52):
public to contact their congress person the email to call
to say, hey, something's got to give here, that the
air traffic controllers are not getting paid FBI agents, are
members of Congress, are and so they're out there saying, hey,
help us out.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Continue to come to work each and every day. We're
a proud bunch, we're a professional bunch, and we're all
showing up to work every day for no pay. So
we're asking the public support to help us in the shutdown.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
So that's Mark Rowse. He's a controller. He's handing out
pamphlets in seattlec Tech and he says they got to
do it. A lot of them, he says, are getting
second jobs now that they're driving for Uber, door Dash
or Instacart, or they've got side gigs of some kind
that to make money. But that adds in a whole
layer of do you want your air traffic controllers to
have a side hustle? Yeah, to get off of work
(06:40):
and be going and driving for Uber.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
You know what, I don't know, You know what, I'm
a sort of a gambler in life, Alex. I like
going to the church carnival that the rides are put
together by you know carnes On.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
There was on the freeway ten minutes.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, and he's got a handful of bolts when he's done,
and you know, you think you're gonna make it, but
you may not. And there's a thrilled to that.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Well, and that's his point.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
He says that this is adding in risk to our
flying system, that they feel like it now, they're they're tired,
and they're not focused on it.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
He told us, you don't want to introduce a distraction
into an air traffic controller when they're plugging in and
looking at the runways and in the back of their
head they're like, I just ran out of money. I
have zero dollars in my bank account. How am I
going to refill my vehicle so I can come back
tomorrow then pay it to not get paid? How am
I going to How am I gonna put food on
the table?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Then?
Speaker 6 (07:27):
How am I going to pay the rent?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah, so they're saying, come up with some stop gap.
If you're not going to actually get a deal of
pay some way to pay the control, pay the important people.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
You know, this strike has been going for what thirty days?
Just short of that yet Okay, I have not been
affected at all on any level.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
You might have been if you were flying out of
lax over the weekend there was a ground stop. If
you fly out of Newark and there's certain airports so
that they've had a lot. But generally speaking, yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
You're right, but Alex, but I have not fun. Yeah,
not affected. But it's amazing that the government, the entire
government can shut down for thirty days and people like not.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Really and nobody really knows really.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Affected by this.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
But if you're an air traffic controller or TSA officer,
you get them say they're like, look, you know the
FBI agents are gonna get paid to members of Congress
if you're mandating that they go in and they are
public safety in many ways that they're saying, just pay us.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
You figure out a way to do it.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
I have some money on me. If you're an air
if you're an aero traffic controller, if you want to
call and and maybe I can give you a couple
of bucks, but I'm gonna need to get paid back
on They're.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Gonna get paid eventually as well. But but yeah, yeah
you're gonna give five bucks. Help out with that.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Guess I got thirty dollars on me. I'll give it
to an air traffic controller, but I'm gonna get paid
back or else I'm coming after.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
You because of U. Lax is gonna stay open tonight.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Oh that's right, that's right, ding don with them.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Have you think done?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Have you flown since the shutdown?
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Yeah, quite a bit.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
I was on the East Coast last week and what
are you doing on the stuff?
Speaker 4 (08:57):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
What are you doing on the East coast? We had
some rating going on out there, the sexual harassment crap?
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Do you guys stuff? No, No, we were doing.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
By the way, did you have to do the sexual
harassment and payola plug all all that crap?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
We do? Yeah, we have do it once a year.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah, we used to have to do that. I remember
this woman came in a in a this heavy set
woman came in and told us what sexual harassment was
for like two hours, and I knew it was going
to happen. So I split ten minutes into the meeting,
and Robin Berlucci, my boss, called me like an hour
and forty five minutes of the meeting, and said, hey,
where are you? I mean, I came back to this meeting.
(09:32):
Where are you? I said, I'm home. I said, this
stuff doesn't pertain to me because I'm already you know,
I learned all my lessons. I know how to treat
people in the workplace. I don't need to pull you back.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Did you have to go back?
Speaker 1 (09:43):
She said, almost exactly word for word. I always thought
these sexual harassment get together's were also bs until I
met you.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
There you go, she was telling them.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
She goes, yeah, these are freak guys like you.
Speaker 4 (10:00):

Beautiful they got how well?
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I mean, yeah, they're both they're both attractive people, and

how cute there?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
And then also he's like a cool he's not an

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Shut up, that's right, all right? Sure, yeah, read for him.
You know somebody made it.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah, exactly, good for the.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Ding dong with that guy. All right, we're live on
k IF. I're going to keep an eye on the
Dodgers score for you. We won't hit you over the
head too hard. We'll just give you a score like
every eight seconds. But that's what we do, right, So
you have to listen to it on the radio. You
can get here. We can get some news in you,
and then you can we'll get you with the score.
I know, I know, I know, I know. We got
a break. Tony yelling at me.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
A six forty.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
The Los Angeles Dodgers play tonight. That's the big story
here in southern California. It was a depressing night last
night watching the team lose. By tonight. They've got a shot.
Whoever wins tonight's game goes up three games to two,
and then the burdens on the other team to win
two straight which is going to be very difficult to do.
(11:50):
I believe if the Toronto Blue Jays win tonight, to
fly to Toronto and to win two games in a row
in that loud stadium, because everybody who attends that game
in Toronto on Friday and Saturday, they're going to be
as loud as you've ever heard of stadium. And by
the way they have it, they have an advantage. Dodger
(12:13):
fans are have a disadvantage compared to Toronto fans because
Dodger Stadium is an open air stadium. Toronto is closed.
So I've been there before. I used to work in Toronto,
and everything echoes in that stadium. I mean, if you
yelled in that stadium, it would echo for you know,
(12:35):
two minutes before it stopped. And so when you get
fifty thousand people or whatever the capacity is in Toronto,
it sounds like one hundred and fifty thousand people, and
those people go crazy up there. Because Toronto doesn't have
a football team in the NFL, they have a hockey
team that hasn't won the Stanley Cup. I believe in
fifty years or more they have a basketball team that
(12:59):
won the championship. I don't know, maybe eight, nine, ten
years ago and then haven't really done anything since. So
this is their their whole life. It's the only baseball
team in Canada in Major League Baseball. They used to
have two. They used to have the Montreal Expos and
then that went south on them. So they just have
(13:21):
the Toronto Blue Jays and that's it. So the entire Canada,
the entire country of Canada's rooting for the Blue Jays,
and everybody in the United States outside of the people
within the you know the sound of my voice here
in southern California is also rooting for the Dodgers to lose.
People hate Los Angeles. They hate us because every time
(13:42):
they look at LA they think we've got it made.
They don't know. We don't. It's a big secret here
in LA. When someone comes out to visit, they get
carjacked or a homeless guy asses on them, or they
get a parking ticket for eighty dollars, the traffic ticket
for five hundred dollars, or they got to buy themselves
(14:03):
a meal when they come out here and that's eighty
dollars for a sandwich. Then they understand the sting. It
stings to be here in La It's a heavy town.
There's a heavy presence over southern California. And it's not
all of southern California. There's some beautiful areas, but if
you live in Los Angeles, it does feel like I'm
(14:25):
in La County and very close to La City. It
feels like we're just holding on, like the dam could
break at any moment. We've had a really rough year.
Not you know, individually, some of us probably have not,
but collectively we have. Because the people in the Palisades
and Malibu and Alt the Dean and the Eate and
Eaten Fier area parts of Arcadia, they are us. We
(14:47):
are all one big family, and when somebody gets stung
and loses their home, we all feel it. Maybe not
immediately and maybe not as great as the people lost
their home, that's for sure, but we feel the sorrow
because they are our neighbors and our family and our friends.
And there's a great deal of depression that came along
(15:08):
with that fire that I don't think we've gotten over.
I really don't. I think we're still I think that's
the reason why people go to the stadium and scream.
They really need the distraction, and this Dodger team is
a beautiful distraction, a great distraction, and that we need
the Kings to do well, the Lakers, the Clippers, I had,
(15:29):
the Rams, the Chargers, Those little distractions help us after
a horrible, horrible year we've been through. So go Dodgers.
It's a bit. It's bigger than just a baseball game.
It's literally saving and healing Southern California when we watch
these games or go to these games.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
This happened to me today, and I don't know how
to take it. So I'll just tell you what it is,
and Belly, I'll ask for your opinion. Usually got a
pretty good head on your shoulders when it comes to
crap like this.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Cool.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
Can we just do the cash keyword real quick?
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Oh that's right. Did we mess the first one up?
Speaker 7 (16:11):
Okay, I did?
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Oh you did it?
Speaker 7 (16:13):
I apologized everyone.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
All right, So we got to do the cash keyword again.
Speaker 7 (16:16):
Here's the correct cash keyword.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
All right, Here we go, correct correct cash keyword. Here
we go.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
Now your chance to win one thousand dollars. Just enter

for homeless and people who are experiencing know their pay
checklists or I don't want to say poor or broke,
(17:04):
but they need assistance. It's called b tech. It's the
Burbank Temporary assist I don't know b TAC. It stands
for something, but they're really good at what they do
b Tech. And so my wife, who you know, is
very well read and what's going on and understands that
people are going to come to the end when it
(17:26):
comes to either Wick or Snap or food stamps and
there's going to be a run on these food places.
People that help you know, missupplement your food for a
month or so, or help you when you're down on
your luck. And so she said, hey, let's go out
and get some food and take it to the to
B Tech Burbank Temporary Assistant Aid Center.
Speaker 7 (17:50):
Okay, I got you.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Okay. So we went out last night to Walmart and
bought a bunch of stuff. But I'm telling you for
a reason.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
I'm not I understand, but I can say that's okay.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
I'm not doing it to pat myself on the back.
I'm telling you for a reason. So I take at
nine thirty this morning, I take all all this food over.
And when I've done this in the past, they give
me they pull out a red cart. It's a two
tier red cart, a lower shelf and a top shelf,
and you fill it up and then they take it
and they thank you for that, and then you move
(18:27):
on in life. So I pulled up this morning and
he said I get out, and the guy said, this
cart's for you, and I said, okay, And I go
to get some of the food and I put in
my cart and there's no room on the cart. The
cart's filled with food and there's you know, I can't
there's no room on the bottom shelf or the top
(18:47):
shelf to put any more food on this thing. And
I and I said, hey, I said, buddy, can you
give me a hand here? And he said sure. And
he comes over and he's taking and he's gonna about
to take food out and put it in my car.
He thought I was there to collect food, you know,
to get food. I said, no, no, I'm dropping stuff off.
(19:09):
He goes, oh, okay, all right, all right, and I,
uh ah, sorry. So it gives me an empty cart
and I filled it. But here's the point. Here's what
I'm trying to tell you, and this, this is very
closely related to what everyone is talking about the price
of food nowadays. I'm gonna tell bell. I'm gonna tell
(19:30):
you what I bought, and I want you to take
a guess at what this costs. Okay, okay, you ready,
it's gonna it's it's sort of like a price is
right now.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
I'm actually like kind of tally it up.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Okay, it's a boring prices right thing. Okay, well that
sounds fun. Ten boxes of rice or Broni, ten boxes
of Kraft macaroni and cheese, twenty four cans of tomato sauce,
you know, like the twelve ounce cans twenty boxes of
dry pasta, twelve cans of beans green beans, twelve cans
(20:07):
of corn, twelve cans of tomato paste, and twelve cans
of diced tomatoes. So it's ten twenty forty sixty seventy
eighty ninety. It's almost a hundred. Oh, it's about ninety,
not about ninety boxes or ninety you know items. What
(20:31):
do you think that costs.
Speaker 7 (20:34):
I'm gonna go like three twenty.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Three hundred and twenty dollars. Yeah, okay, the actual retail
price seventy nine dollars and fifty cents.
Speaker 7 (20:45):
No way, seventy.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Nine seventy nine dollars and fifty cents. Wow, I thought
the cashier screwed up. Yeah, And I looked at the receipt,
which is a mile long, and I said, are you sure?
And he goes, yeah, I got, I got everything. But
if you go to Walmart right now, I don't know
what's going on with Walmart, but everything, if it has
(21:07):
a red price on it right now, it's really dirt cheap.
I think they're trying to reduce the prices on a
lot of items that people want to help people out.
And I don't think they make a big deal out
of it. I think it's just word on the street
that if you want a decent meal to cook at home,
you can find it inexpensively at Walmart. I'll bring in
(21:29):
the receipt tomorrow, I'll show you it. It was seventy
nine dollars and fifty cents for all of that food.
And I couldn't believe it. And we walked out of
there thinking, that's like a month or maybe six weeks
worth of food for seventy nine dollars and fifty cents.
And I so, and what pisses me off is that
(21:50):
then you go to a sandwich place like I did
in Burbank yesterday, and it was twenty three dollars for
one sandwich. I could have gotten all that food for
seventy nine dollars or one sandwich for twenty two dollars.
Three sandwiches or six weeks worth of food. So if
you make it at home yourself, that's where you're going
(22:11):
to save a lot of money. And I think people
just have to get used to that, me too. You know, Belly,
I know you cook at home and John cooks at home.
Do you I think you rarely eat out at restaurants.
Is that true?
Speaker 7 (22:21):
We eat more at home than we do than we
dine out. Absolutely, yes.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
And John's a great cook.
Speaker 7 (22:26):
He's fabulous. That's great, very fortunate.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
That's fantastic. He should write a book on how to
do that, how to be the man of the house
and also cook for his bride.
Speaker 7 (22:37):
Thank you, Timmy.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
Do you cook? I try?
Speaker 1 (22:40):
But I'm not you know, I don't know. I don't
have a lot of patience and a lot of good
recipes in me.
Speaker 7 (22:46):
You're more of a BBQ guy, right, I with the grill.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Yeah, I can handle myself around the grill. I'm pretty
that decent at that. But I'm more of a J
Box Taco Bell Dell Taco kind of guy.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
Hey, so, how many nights do are you? Do you
eat fast food?
Speaker 1 (23:04):
How many days a week?
Speaker 7 (23:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Seven? No, at least lunch, your dinner at least really sure,
I tell I'm telling you, I'm like a twenty year old.
I eat like a twenty year old who's not going
to see thirty. That's that's my diet.
Speaker 7 (23:22):
And how's your how's your health?
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Well, okay, I'm glad you ask. I'm now on cholesterol medication.
I'm on blood pressure medication.
Speaker 7 (23:31):
It's not funny.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
I'm on all I got my flu shot that knock
me out. I got a lot going on.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
Did he mention to you? Did he did you or
he or her ask you about her? Did she ask
you about your diet?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Not really no, which is great. You know, so I
have to lie to word about it.
Speaker 7 (23:49):
You would too. That's like a family thing.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
One hundred percent. My dad and I had the same
doctor for ten years. And the doctor that we shared
said how often you drink? Because you know you can
see me, you know, I smell like the bottom of
a whiskey bottle. And I said, I don't have like
a maybe a beer on weekdays, maybe a beer and
a shot on weekends. And he said, he says, you
(24:15):
know that's too much. You should drink, you know, more
like your dad. And I said, what is uh? What's
his monthly intake? And he said, well, your dad told
me the other day he says like he has like
one beer every six months. And I said, this is great.
This is two generations of Conway's b sing the same doctor.
Speaker 7 (24:38):
I guess it works for you.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
One beer every And you think that as a doctor,
you're going to buy that.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Well of some people. That is the truth. Really, Like
he's going to think Tim Conway's lying to him.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Yes, who has one beer every six months? Then you
just don't have any you know, just pass on that
one beer.
Speaker 7 (24:57):
People just need one beer. No, get out of here,
you get out of here.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
People enjoy drinking, they enjoy smoking weed. You have to
take the edge off. You cannot live in reality or
other options like what working out? Snickers? What the other?
What the low end one? Nickers? Absolutely yeah, I like
Coroli used to say that. You know he worked with
a guy who said, oh man, I get if I
have Snickers by one, I'm out by three. Like what
a Snickers took you out? Understanding cocaine or methanphetamine or
(25:25):
you know a bottle of whiskey, but af Snickers took
you out? Got them mighty? All right, We're gonna keep
it on the Dodgers. They start at about twenty one
twenty two minutes from now, and Snell is going to
be pitching Snell Zilla will be on the mound. Should
be a good gut.

Speaker 1 (26:46):
And fifty seven. Okay, that's a cool area. So tomorrow
Gary and Shannon at nine am they slide on down
there and enjoy that. All right, here's a let's do
a quick whip around, Tony, you got the whip brown
music here, We're gonna do a quick word around. And
don't be embarrassed that you don't know this because I
didn't know it until I just looked it up. Okay,
(27:09):
but in next year, look at the exact dates here,
February sixth through February twenty second of next year. So
right around the corner is the next Winter Olympics. Bell Yoh,
what city is that going to be in? That's in
(27:30):
them without googling it? That's in what country?
Speaker 7 (27:37):
The US?
Speaker 1 (27:37):
USA? Okay, Crozier, what country is that in?
Speaker 2 (27:41):
In the US?
Speaker 1 (27:42):
US? All right, Tony? What country is the twenty twenty
six Olympics and Winter Olympics? Is it in Canada? Canada?
And angels Angel with US Angel give US Angel Angel Mexico. No,
(28:03):
it's not Mexico. That's a good guest though.
Speaker 7 (28:06):
We got Maddie too.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Oh Maddie, Okay, Maddie might know this. Maddie where's the
next the Winter Olympics in February of next year.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
I was gonna say Canada team, I don't know, Okay,
I just looked it up. I didn't know either. It's
in Italy. Where in Italy. It's got to be northern
Italy because the southern Italy is is like Los Angeles.
Oh yeah, right right, so yeah, we're near the Swiss Alps. Yeah,
I have to look it up. But that's that's incredible
(28:36):
that it's that it's that close, and it's nobody knows where.
I just saw them promoting it on Channel four and
they said one of the reporters going over to Milan. Oh, Milan, Okay,
that is northern I guess northern Italy. But there's no
skiing in Milan. They've got it. Where's the skiing going
(28:58):
to take place? Milan's I don't think a resort town.
Milan is like La. I don't think there's gonna be
skiing in Milan unless they put.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Up a new it's basically going to be split up
between Milan and Cortina de Pazzo.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Oh okay, I'm assuming that's probably where the skiing is. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but you know, the Olympic team for the United States
is typically two hundred and fifty people. You know, that's
a big deal. And Italy is a beautiful country, but
they're not promoting it enough. I mean, it's it's literally
two and a half three months away. What is February sixth,
so we're so it's November, December, January. It's three months away. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (29:38):
Where are the Dolomites.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Dolar heads?
Speaker 7 (29:46):
You got me on that one.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I thought those were the exploitation movies in the seventies.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Geez, where are your buccaneers?
Speaker 7 (29:54):
Where are your buccaneers?
Speaker 1 (29:55):
On the side of your bucking head.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Is basically yeah, in the northern part of Italy, just
south of Switzerland, just south of Slitz, Switzerland, and the
Contita Cortina dem Pezzle is just west of Austria, in
the northern part of ok as well.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
All right, so it's near Switzerland. Is that close by Milan? Is? Yes? Okay?
I wish I knew my geography a little better back there.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I have no idea where Milan was. But that's that's close.
We're three months away and only fourteen athletes have qualified
so far for the for the US team fourteen one
four fourteen. Yeah, so I don't know what I think.
We're just so, you know, I'm conditioned to talk about,
(30:43):
you know, the World Cups coming here, the Super Bowls
coming here, the Olympics are coming here. That we forgot
that there's a Winter Olympics in Milan, Italy.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Stink in the Winter Olympic.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Yeah, not that great. You know, so those European countries dominate,
and the and the Jamaican bobsledders, you know, they kick
ass to mom. Yeah, but I still can't believe that it's,
you know, literally three months away, and I had no
idea until I just looked it up where it was.
And I'm a big Olympics fan. I like watching the Olympics,
(31:15):
the you know, the Summer and the Winter Olympics. But
they've got to do a much better job promoting this,
much much better. All Right, we got to take a
break here, we come back. We'll give you some Dodger
scores as they come in. They start game number five tonight,
Game five at Dodger Stadium. Then it goes back to
Toronto on Friday, and if they need a game, Saturday
(31:37):
will be Game seven. It's Conway Show live right here
on KFI AM six forty Conway Show on demand on
the iHeart Radio app. Now, you can always hear us
live on KFI AM six forty four to seven pm
Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand on the iHeart
Radio app
It's KMF I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio apps. Calm down,
We're not out of the World Series yet. There's still
two games, at least two games to be played, one
here in Dodger at Dodgers Stadium in one hour and
one minute from now, and then maybe two in Toronto.
(00:22):
And it would be exciting to see a Game seven
in the World Series as long as the Dodgers won.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Yeah, so the chance of them winning at home is gone.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
Yeah, it's over it. It ended last night with that
ass kicking, that the that the Blue Jays put on them.
It was over last night. And you know, the entire nation,
the entire nation of the United States and the entire
nation of Canada, they want to see the Dodgers lose.
The only people want to see the Dodgers win are
people listening to me right now and people at the stadium.
(00:53):
Everybody else wants to see him lose, including our first guest,
Alex Dulls.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Maybe seniors. How you Bobb No, Oh, I don't want
the buddy Boddy. Okay, I was gonna Borro in Glendale
last night. I was the only one in there. Every
time the blue days would scar and I was like,
I should be quiet right now.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
This is not good. Everybody was in a Dodger set.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
That's classic. Got the glares. I understand, like Gary and
Shannon are major Giants and forty nine Ers fans, and
Mark Thompson is a forty nine Ers and I think
a Giants fan. But I respect that when you move
to a city and you retain your allegiance to a team,
I love that. I think that's an honest sports fan.
(01:34):
What are dishonest sports fans are? Well, like my mom
who was a Lakers fan forever, huge Dodger van forever.
She moved to Denver. She called me a week later, going,
how about this John Elwade?
Speaker 4 (01:46):
These boys, man, did they kick an ass by? Like
you were there for Like wait, is second there for
one week?
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Yeah? But well we'll see tonight.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
We'll see. That was a quick game last night.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
Man.
Speaker 4 (01:57):
They were tired. It seemed like the stadium was tired.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, they fans were exhausted for every reason. And you
know what, and the fans, you know, they keep telling
Like I was listening to David Vasse on the way
home last night, and he kept talking about how the
fans have to get off their ass and get up
on their feet and cheer. But that's not what kind
of game this is. This is a corporate event where
wealthy people go. They shut out the normal fan, and
(02:20):
the normal fans are at home like me, or at
a bar, or at a restaurant like you, cheering the
hell out of them.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Justin Bieber. Yeah, I mean they're all there. Mary Heart.
Was she cheering last night?
Speaker 4 (02:30):
She was there?
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Also, what's his name? The Prince from Santa Barbara with
his dopey wife Megan and yeah, Megan and my I
don't know whatever, the Prince Charles or Andrew or I
don't know what that other dude's name is. Well, Prince Harry. Yeah,
Prince Harry and Megan Marco front row seats. How disgusting
is that.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
I'm just gonna look right now on game time, what
are we looking at? Seventeen thousand dollars if you want to. Okay,
I'm kind of front row, a little bit off to
the left, but.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
See, but Rince Harry and Megan, you know, Princess Meghan
and wherever they're calling her nowadays. That's just a look
at me, you know, in their front row, so people
look at him and keep them in mind every pitch. Yeah,
and it took two seats away from you know, lifelong
Dodger fans. You know, a kid grew up in LA
he's now in his sixties and he's a big Dodger fan.
(03:20):
He's at home with his wife and his you know kids,
watching the game because Meghan and Prince Harry are sitting
in those seats.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Can you imagine you came home to your wife and
you said, I bought Crozier and me some tickets. I
spent almost forty thousand dollars tonight, did, right, But you
know what it includes fees according to the game time apps.
Speaker 1 (03:38):
So see, my wife would know that I'd be lying
because there's no way I can get to hit my
hot hands on forty g. There's no effing way, man,
she has got everything locked out.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Well, the best deal, here's a good one, the upper deck.
Nine hundred and forty five bucks a seat. Oh that's
not bad, that's not bad. Still more than I want
to spend for one seat in the upper deck.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Let him eat cake and watch the series from home.
But you know it is, you know I know, Petro's money.
Talk about this all the time. It is a life
long venture to get there, watch the game, and get out.
It's an it's a twelve hour event, oh yeah, you know,
with traffic and parking, it's.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
And then you add in what night was it? Tuesday night?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yeah? Oh yeah, Tuesday. What it's a six hour and
forty minute game. So let's say, you know, typically you
would leave for that kind of game on a weekday,
you'd leave three hours before first pitch. Yeah yeah, but
typically yeah, maybe two, but probably three because of traffic.
So you left it at at two o'clock, You got
there at four point thirty or four, in your seat
by four, game starts at five, you're out of the
(04:38):
stadium by one o'clock. You're out of the parking lot
by two, your home by three. So it's a it's
a thirteen hour event, that game thirteen hours.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
You get your money's worth, you do you do? That's
a long day.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
And then these are morons who are watching the game
on their TV on their phones, you know, say they
have their phones. They're holding their phone up so they
can take a video. So they're at the stadium. They've
paid twelve one thousand dollars for a seat and they're
watching it on a screen that's three inches by five inches.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
I'm going to any concert, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
I mean people are just they cannot be in the
moment anymore. Kroz is the only one I know that
does is when he goes to an event, he shuts
his phone off and he enjoys the event, him.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
And his Why you Crozer, that's great?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Yeah, right? I think also, I think they just skipped
a bill on their charge. That's probably what it was.
All right, what's going on with their traffic controllers. They've
all walked off, they've all quit, they're all on well filled.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
But I think they want to Yeah, because they're mandated
is we've been talking about. They're mandated to go. But
they they now have officially not gotten paid. That their
previous paycheck had a little bit of the pre shut
down money in it, So yesterday was paid ay for
federal employees and they got zero. So they are now
handing out leaflets at airports around the country asking the
(05:52):
public to contact their congress person the email to call
to say, hey, something's got to give here, that the
air traffic controllers are not getting paid FBI agents, are
members of Congress, are and so they're out there saying, hey,
help us out.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Continue to come to work each and every day. We're
a proud bunch, we're a professional bunch, and we're all
showing up to work every day for no pay. So
we're asking the public support to help us in the shutdown.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
So that's Mark Rowse. He's a controller. He's handing out
pamphlets in seattlec Tech and he says they got to
do it. A lot of them, he says, are getting
second jobs now that they're driving for Uber, door Dash
or Instacart, or they've got side gigs of some kind
that to make money. But that adds in a whole
layer of do you want your air traffic controllers to
have a side hustle? Yeah, to get off of work
(06:40):
and be going and driving for Uber.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
You know what, I don't know, You know what, I'm
a sort of a gambler in life, Alex. I like
going to the church carnival that the rides are put
together by you know carnes On.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
There was on the freeway ten minutes.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Yeah, and he's got a handful of bolts when he's done,
and you know, you think you're gonna make it, but
you may not. And there's a thrilled to that.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Well, and that's his point.
Speaker 3 (07:03):
He says that this is adding in risk to our
flying system, that they feel like it now, they're they're tired,
and they're not focused on it.
Speaker 6 (07:08):
He told us, you don't want to introduce a distraction
into an air traffic controller when they're plugging in and
looking at the runways and in the back of their
head they're like, I just ran out of money. I
have zero dollars in my bank account. How am I
going to refill my vehicle so I can come back
tomorrow then pay it to not get paid? How am
I going to How am I gonna put food on
the table?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Then?
Speaker 6 (07:27):
How am I going to pay the rent?
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Yeah, so they're saying, come up with some stop gap.
If you're not going to actually get a deal of
pay some way to pay the control, pay the important people.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
You know, this strike has been going for what thirty days?
Just short of that yet Okay, I have not been
affected at all on any level.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
You might have been if you were flying out of
lax over the weekend there was a ground stop. If
you fly out of Newark and there's certain airports so
that they've had a lot. But generally speaking, yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
You're right, but Alex, but I have not fun. Yeah,
not affected. But it's amazing that the government, the entire
government can shut down for thirty days and people like not.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Really and nobody really knows really.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Affected by this.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
But if you're an air traffic controller or TSA officer,
you get them say they're like, look, you know the
FBI agents are gonna get paid to members of Congress
if you're mandating that they go in and they are
public safety in many ways that they're saying, just pay us.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
You figure out a way to do it.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
I have some money on me. If you're an air
if you're an aero traffic controller, if you want to
call and and maybe I can give you a couple
of bucks, but I'm gonna need to get paid back
on They're.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Gonna get paid eventually as well. But but yeah, yeah
you're gonna give five bucks. Help out with that.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
Guess I got thirty dollars on me. I'll give it
to an air traffic controller, but I'm gonna get paid
back or else I'm coming after.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
You because of U. Lax is gonna stay open tonight.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Oh that's right, that's right, ding don with them.
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Have you think done?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Have you flown since the shutdown?
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Yeah, quite a bit.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
I was on the East Coast last week and what
are you doing on the stuff?
Speaker 4 (08:57):
What's that?
Speaker 1 (08:58):
What are you doing on the East coast? We had
some rating going on out there, the sexual harassment crap?
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Do you guys stuff? No, No, we were doing.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
By the way, did you have to do the sexual
harassment and payola plug all all that crap?
Speaker 4 (09:10):
We do? Yeah, we have do it once a year.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Yeah, we used to have to do that. I remember
this woman came in a in a this heavy set
woman came in and told us what sexual harassment was
for like two hours, and I knew it was going
to happen. So I split ten minutes into the meeting,
and Robin Berlucci, my boss, called me like an hour
and forty five minutes of the meeting, and said, hey,
where are you? I mean, I came back to this meeting.
(09:32):
Where are you? I said, I'm home. I said, this
stuff doesn't pertain to me because I'm already you know,
I learned all my lessons. I know how to treat
people in the workplace. I don't need to pull you back.
Speaker 4 (09:42):
Did you have to go back?
Speaker 1 (09:43):
She said, almost exactly word for word. I always thought
these sexual harassment get together's were also bs until I
met you.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
There you go, she was telling them.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
She goes, yeah, these are freak guys like you.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah, exactly, good for the.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Ding dong with that guy. All right, we're live on
k IF. I're going to keep an eye on the
Dodgers score for you. We won't hit you over the
head too hard. We'll just give you a score like
every eight seconds. But that's what we do, right, So
you have to listen to it on the radio. You
can get here. We can get some news in you,
and then you can we'll get you with the score.
I know, I know, I know, I know. We got
a break. Tony yelling at me.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
A six forty.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
The Los Angeles Dodgers play tonight. That's the big story
here in southern California. It was a depressing night last
night watching the team lose. By tonight. They've got a shot.
Whoever wins tonight's game goes up three games to two,
and then the burdens on the other team to win
two straight which is going to be very difficult to do.
(11:50):
I believe if the Toronto Blue Jays win tonight, to
fly to Toronto and to win two games in a row
in that loud stadium, because everybody who attends that game
in Toronto on Friday and Saturday, they're going to be
as loud as you've ever heard of stadium. And by
the way they have it, they have an advantage. Dodger
(12:13):
fans are have a disadvantage compared to Toronto fans because
Dodger Stadium is an open air stadium. Toronto is closed.
So I've been there before. I used to work in Toronto,
and everything echoes in that stadium. I mean, if you
yelled in that stadium, it would echo for you know,
(12:35):
two minutes before it stopped. And so when you get
fifty thousand people or whatever the capacity is in Toronto,
it sounds like one hundred and fifty thousand people, and
those people go crazy up there. Because Toronto doesn't have
a football team in the NFL, they have a hockey
team that hasn't won the Stanley Cup. I believe in
fifty years or more they have a basketball team that
(12:59):
won the championship. I don't know, maybe eight, nine, ten
years ago and then haven't really done anything since. So
this is their their whole life. It's the only baseball
team in Canada in Major League Baseball. They used to
have two. They used to have the Montreal Expos and
then that went south on them. So they just have
(13:21):
the Toronto Blue Jays and that's it. So the entire Canada,
the entire country of Canada's rooting for the Blue Jays,
and everybody in the United States outside of the people
within the you know the sound of my voice here
in southern California is also rooting for the Dodgers to lose.
People hate Los Angeles. They hate us because every time
(13:42):
they look at LA they think we've got it made.
They don't know. We don't. It's a big secret here
in LA. When someone comes out to visit, they get
carjacked or a homeless guy asses on them, or they
get a parking ticket for eighty dollars, the traffic ticket
for five hundred dollars, or they got to buy themselves
(14:03):
a meal when they come out here and that's eighty
dollars for a sandwich. Then they understand the sting. It
stings to be here in La It's a heavy town.
There's a heavy presence over southern California. And it's not
all of southern California. There's some beautiful areas, but if
you live in Los Angeles, it does feel like I'm
(14:25):
in La County and very close to La City. It
feels like we're just holding on, like the dam could
break at any moment. We've had a really rough year.
Not you know, individually, some of us probably have not,
but collectively we have. Because the people in the Palisades
and Malibu and Alt the Dean and the Eate and
Eaten Fier area parts of Arcadia, they are us. We
(14:47):
are all one big family, and when somebody gets stung
and loses their home, we all feel it. Maybe not
immediately and maybe not as great as the people lost
their home, that's for sure, but we feel the sorrow
because they are our neighbors and our family and our friends.
And there's a great deal of depression that came along
(15:08):
with that fire that I don't think we've gotten over.
I really don't. I think we're still I think that's
the reason why people go to the stadium and scream.
They really need the distraction, and this Dodger team is
a beautiful distraction, a great distraction, and that we need
the Kings to do well, the Lakers, the Clippers, I had,
(15:29):
the Rams, the Chargers, Those little distractions help us after
a horrible, horrible year we've been through. So go Dodgers.
It's a bit. It's bigger than just a baseball game.
It's literally saving and healing Southern California when we watch
these games or go to these games.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
This happened to me today, and I don't know how
to take it. So I'll just tell you what it is,
and Belly, I'll ask for your opinion. Usually got a
pretty good head on your shoulders when it comes to
crap like this.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Cool.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
Can we just do the cash keyword real quick?
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Oh that's right. Did we mess the first one up?
Speaker 7 (16:11):
Okay, I did?
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Oh you did it?
Speaker 7 (16:13):
I apologized everyone.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
All right, So we got to do the cash keyword again.
Speaker 7 (16:16):
Here's the correct cash keyword.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
All right, Here we go, correct correct cash keyword. Here
we go.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
Now your chance to win one thousand dollars. Just enter
this nationwide keyword on our website Grand that's Grand g

for homeless and people who are experiencing know their pay
checklists or I don't want to say poor or broke,
(17:04):
but they need assistance. It's called b tech. It's the
Burbank Temporary assist I don't know b TAC. It stands
for something, but they're really good at what they do
b Tech. And so my wife, who you know, is
very well read and what's going on and understands that
people are going to come to the end when it
(17:26):
comes to either Wick or Snap or food stamps and
there's going to be a run on these food places.
People that help you know, missupplement your food for a
month or so, or help you when you're down on
your luck. And so she said, hey, let's go out
and get some food and take it to the to
B Tech Burbank Temporary Assistant Aid Center.
Speaker 7 (17:50):
Okay, I got you.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Okay. So we went out last night to Walmart and
bought a bunch of stuff. But I'm telling you for
a reason.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
I'm not I understand, but I can say that's okay.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
I'm not doing it to pat myself on the back.
I'm telling you for a reason. So I take at
nine thirty this morning, I take all all this food over.
And when I've done this in the past, they give
me they pull out a red cart. It's a two
tier red cart, a lower shelf and a top shelf,
and you fill it up and then they take it
and they thank you for that, and then you move
(18:27):
on in life. So I pulled up this morning and
he said I get out, and the guy said, this
cart's for you, and I said, okay, And I go
to get some of the food and I put in
my cart and there's no room on the cart. The
cart's filled with food and there's you know, I can't
there's no room on the bottom shelf or the top
(18:47):
shelf to put any more food on this thing. And
I and I said, hey, I said, buddy, can you
give me a hand here? And he said sure. And
he comes over and he's taking and he's gonna about
to take food out and put it in my car.
He thought I was there to collect food, you know,
to get food. I said, no, no, I'm dropping stuff off.
(19:09):
He goes, oh, okay, all right, all right, and I,
uh ah, sorry. So it gives me an empty cart
and I filled it. But here's the point. Here's what
I'm trying to tell you, and this, this is very
closely related to what everyone is talking about the price
of food nowadays. I'm gonna tell bell. I'm gonna tell
(19:30):
you what I bought, and I want you to take
a guess at what this costs. Okay, okay, you ready,
it's gonna it's it's sort of like a price is
right now.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
I'm actually like kind of tally it up.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
Okay, it's a boring prices right thing. Okay, well that
sounds fun. Ten boxes of rice or Broni, ten boxes
of Kraft macaroni and cheese, twenty four cans of tomato sauce,
you know, like the twelve ounce cans twenty boxes of
dry pasta, twelve cans of beans green beans, twelve cans
(20:07):
of corn, twelve cans of tomato paste, and twelve cans
of diced tomatoes. So it's ten twenty forty sixty seventy
eighty ninety. It's almost a hundred. Oh, it's about ninety,
not about ninety boxes or ninety you know items. What
(20:31):
do you think that costs.
Speaker 7 (20:34):
I'm gonna go like three twenty.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Three hundred and twenty dollars. Yeah, okay, the actual retail
price seventy nine dollars and fifty cents.
Speaker 7 (20:45):
No way, seventy.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Nine seventy nine dollars and fifty cents. Wow, I thought
the cashier screwed up. Yeah, And I looked at the receipt,
which is a mile long, and I said, are you sure?
And he goes, yeah, I got, I got everything. But
if you go to Walmart right now, I don't know
what's going on with Walmart, but everything, if it has
(21:07):
a red price on it right now, it's really dirt cheap.
I think they're trying to reduce the prices on a
lot of items that people want to help people out.
And I don't think they make a big deal out
of it. I think it's just word on the street
that if you want a decent meal to cook at home,
you can find it inexpensively at Walmart. I'll bring in
(21:29):
the receipt tomorrow, I'll show you it. It was seventy
nine dollars and fifty cents for all of that food.
And I couldn't believe it. And we walked out of
there thinking, that's like a month or maybe six weeks
worth of food for seventy nine dollars and fifty cents.
And I so, and what pisses me off is that
(21:50):
then you go to a sandwich place like I did
in Burbank yesterday, and it was twenty three dollars for
one sandwich. I could have gotten all that food for
seventy nine dollars or one sandwich for twenty two dollars.
Three sandwiches or six weeks worth of food. So if
you make it at home yourself, that's where you're going
(22:11):
to save a lot of money. And I think people
just have to get used to that, me too. You know, Belly,
I know you cook at home and John cooks at home.
Do you I think you rarely eat out at restaurants.
Is that true?
Speaker 7 (22:21):
We eat more at home than we do than we
dine out. Absolutely, yes.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
And John's a great cook.
Speaker 7 (22:26):
He's fabulous. That's great, very fortunate.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
That's fantastic. He should write a book on how to
do that, how to be the man of the house
and also cook for his bride.
Speaker 7 (22:37):
Thank you, Timmy.
Speaker 4 (22:38):
Do you cook? I try?
Speaker 1 (22:40):
But I'm not you know, I don't know. I don't
have a lot of patience and a lot of good
recipes in me.
Speaker 7 (22:46):
You're more of a BBQ guy, right, I with the grill.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Yeah, I can handle myself around the grill. I'm pretty
that decent at that. But I'm more of a J
Box Taco Bell Dell Taco kind of guy.
Speaker 7 (23:00):
Hey, so, how many nights do are you? Do you
eat fast food?
Speaker 1 (23:04):
How many days a week?
Speaker 7 (23:06):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Seven? No, at least lunch, your dinner at least really sure,
I tell I'm telling you, I'm like a twenty year old.
I eat like a twenty year old who's not going
to see thirty. That's that's my diet.
Speaker 7 (23:22):
And how's your how's your health?
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Well, okay, I'm glad you ask. I'm now on cholesterol medication.
I'm on blood pressure medication.
Speaker 7 (23:31):
It's not funny.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
I'm on all I got my flu shot that knock
me out. I got a lot going on.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
Did he mention to you? Did he did you or
he or her ask you about her? Did she ask
you about your diet?
Speaker 1 (23:44):
Not really no, which is great. You know, so I
have to lie to word about it.
Speaker 7 (23:49):
You would too. That's like a family thing.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
One hundred percent. My dad and I had the same
doctor for ten years. And the doctor that we shared
said how often you drink? Because you know you can
see me, you know, I smell like the bottom of
a whiskey bottle. And I said, I don't have like
a maybe a beer on weekdays, maybe a beer and
a shot on weekends. And he said, he says, you
(24:15):
know that's too much. You should drink, you know, more
like your dad. And I said, what is uh? What's
his monthly intake? And he said, well, your dad told
me the other day he says like he has like
one beer every six months. And I said, this is great.
This is two generations of Conway's b sing the same doctor.
Speaker 7 (24:38):
I guess it works for you.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
One beer every And you think that as a doctor,
you're going to buy that.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Well of some people. That is the truth. Really, Like
he's going to think Tim Conway's lying to him.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Yes, who has one beer every six months? Then you
just don't have any you know, just pass on that
one beer.
Speaker 7 (24:57):
People just need one beer. No, get out of here,
you get out of here.
Speaker 1 (25:01):
People enjoy drinking, they enjoy smoking weed. You have to
take the edge off. You cannot live in reality or
other options like what working out? Snickers? What the other?
What the low end one? Nickers? Absolutely yeah, I like
Coroli used to say that. You know he worked with
a guy who said, oh man, I get if I
have Snickers by one, I'm out by three. Like what
a Snickers took you out? Understanding cocaine or methanphetamine or
(25:25):
you know a bottle of whiskey, but af Snickers took
you out? Got them mighty? All right, We're gonna keep
it on the Dodgers. They start at about twenty one
twenty two minutes from now, and Snell is going to
be pitching Snell Zilla will be on the mound. Should
be a good gut.

(27:09):
but in next year, look at the exact dates here,
February sixth through February twenty second of next year. So
right around the corner is the next Winter Olympics. Bell Yoh,

Speaker 7 (28:06):
We got Maddie too.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Oh Maddie, Okay, Maddie might know this. Maddie where's the
next the Winter Olympics in February of next year.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
I was gonna say Canada team, I don't know, Okay,
I just looked it up. I didn't know either. It's
in Italy. Where in Italy. It's got to be northern
Italy because the southern Italy is is like Los Angeles.
Oh yeah, right right, so yeah, we're near the Swiss Alps. Yeah,
I have to look it up. But that's that's incredible
(28:36):
that it's that it's that close, and it's nobody knows where.
I just saw them promoting it on Channel four and
they said one of the reporters going over to Milan. Oh, Milan, Okay,
that is northern I guess northern Italy. But there's no
skiing in Milan. They've got it. Where's the skiing going
(28:58):
to take place? Milan's I don't think a resort town.
Milan is like La. I don't think there's gonna be
skiing in Milan unless they put.
Speaker 2 (29:10):
Up a new it's basically going to be split up
between Milan and Cortina de Pazzo.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Oh okay, I'm assuming that's probably where the skiing is. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but you know, the Olympic team for the United States
is typically two hundred and fifty people. You know, that's
a big deal. And Italy is a beautiful country, but
they're not promoting it enough. I mean, it's it's literally
two and a half three months away. What is February sixth,
so we're so it's November, December, January. It's three months away. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (29:38):
Where are the Dolomites.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Dolar heads?
Speaker 7 (29:46):
You got me on that one.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I thought those were the exploitation movies in the seventies.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Geez, where are your buccaneers?
Speaker 7 (29:54):
Where are your buccaneers?
Speaker 1 (29:55):
On the side of your bucking head.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Is basically yeah, in the northern part of Italy, just
south of Switzerland, just south of Slitz, Switzerland, and the
Contita Cortina dem Pezzle is just west of Austria, in
the northern part of ok as well.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
All right, so it's near Switzerland. Is that close by Milan? Is? Yes? Okay?
I wish I knew my geography a little better back there.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
I have no idea where Milan was. But that's that's close.
We're three months away and only fourteen athletes have qualified
so far for the for the US team fourteen one
four fourteen. Yeah, so I don't know what I think.
We're just so, you know, I'm conditioned to talk about,
(30:43):
you know, the World Cups coming here, the Super Bowls
coming here, the Olympics are coming here. That we forgot
that there's a Winter Olympics in Milan, Italy.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Stink in the Winter Olympic.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Yeah, not that great. You know, so those European countries dominate,
and the and the Jamaican bobsledders, you know, they kick
ass to mom. Yeah, but I still can't believe that it's,
you know, literally three months away, and I had no
idea until I just looked it up where it was.
And I'm a big Olympics fan. I like watching the Olympics,
(31:15):
the you know, the Summer and the Winter Olympics. But
they've got to do a much better job promoting this,
much much better. All Right, we got to take a
break here, we come back. We'll give you some Dodger
scores as they come in. They start game number five tonight,
Game five at Dodger Stadium. Then it goes back to
