Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Hey, before
we begin here, this is the most spectacular weather day
we've had in probably, I don't know, maybe since May,
since May, maybe late May, early June.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
It is spectacular outside.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
These are the kind of days that remind you of
being a child in the San Fernando Valley or on
the West Side, or Simi Valley or Annilov Valley, wherever
you live Inland Empire, Orange County, where you got home
from school and it's beautiful outside, and for some reason,
this kind of weather reminds me of being a child
in the San Fernando Valley. We don't get many days
like this. It's spectacular outside. So if you've been cooped
(00:46):
up all day inside at your stupid job, get outside
and enjoy the rest of this day. It is awesome.
It is exactly why we put up with all the
crap here in California because of days like this. It
is unbelievable outside. All right, we'll get to the Trump shooting,
the Trump assassination attempt on first. This is a company town.
(01:08):
Is a company town, are and our business is show
business in this town? And I'd say, I would say,
I don't know. Maybe seventy five percent of the people
who live in southern California have a connection to show
business one way or another.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Maybe you own a cleaners where the actors go. That's
the one thing, one business they always bring up, you know,
like an actor's strike, Well, it's gonna affect the cleaners.
They always bring that business up for some reason. It's
like nobody else in the world goes to the business.
They'll go to the cleaners except for actors and actresses.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
That's not true. I go the cleaners.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
So but I'm with you, all right, Jason Nathanson is
whether it's the Emmys, was last night nice to see about?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
How do you do?
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Can I just say that I had that exact same
thought about the weather today, right as a child of
the San Fernando Valley. Okay, they there are those days,
those weather days, and this feel this feels like okay, school,
Halloween's coming up.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
There's a little bit of that coolness in the air
with a little bit of breeze.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
I had the exact same thoughts and.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
It was one of those days where I don't know
where you went to elementary school or junior high, but
you get out too the playground and you know, it's
a little bit windy, it's beautiful, it's clear, and there's
just a vibe of smell and I can't explain it
in the air that reminds me of my childhood.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
And I guess you this in.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
Yeah, my elementary school is apartment buildings. Now it's it's
no longer really what happened to it? Then it was
pine Crest in Van Eyes, Oh, pine Crest. I went Bulldoze.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
I went to Pine Crest for one week and then
they said an out out out ski outs Goody the
one off of like Louise near the one on one freeway.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Uh no, it's uh Van Noen, I think. And they
had like three different campuses. There's Sherman Way and something
out there.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Okay, Yeah, I wasn't not Pine Crest the type student
that was.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
A private school. It was.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
It was.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
I went there till Second crad Then I went to
the la U s D.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Yeah, my dad put me in Pine Crest, which is
a private school, and then he realized, oh wait a minute,
I got six kids.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
I can't afford this with all them L A U.
S D. For you, it's spendy. Yeah all right, so
last night you watch it.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
I thought the hosts Dan and Eugene Levey did a
great job.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Yeah, I thought they were Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
I thought they I thought they they did it. They
did a job, they were fine. You know, you never
want the host to really overshadow or undershadow the show,
if that's even a word. I mean, you just you
want them to kind of be there, provide a little
bit of entertainment. For me, the gold standard is a
Ricky Gervais or a Tina Fane Amy Polar right during
(03:41):
the Golden Globes. Those are those are the best. So
that beat everybody up in the room. Yeah right, But
they're funny. They're just funny, and they do it in
different like, you know, Ricky Gervas, he's got his snark
and his kind of he's kind of mean. Tina fan
Amy Pohlar do it in a different way but still
very very funny.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
So that's my benchmark. And were they there. No, are
they going to do it again?
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Probably not, but they were they were okay, they didn't intrude.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I heard that Jimmy Kimmel was pissed because he went,
he showed up and he lost to The Daily Show
and John Stewart, who only works one day a week,
and and it's and and then Emmy's last night.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
We're on ABC.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
So he goes there, He's on ABC, the Emmy's are
on ABC, and he lost to a guy who works
one day a week.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
No, I mean the the award was for The Daily
Show and John Stewart, Yes, but the other hosts as well,
Desi Leideck and Jordan Klepper and you and all of them.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
It was for the show, not just for John Stewart.
So right, I understand, but everybody, but the end that well, okay,
the show lost. Jimmy Kimmel's show lost. It did, but
like it every year, it's on a different network. So
it's not like Fallon Wins when it's on NBC and
then Colbert Wins when it's on you know whatever. No, No,
I I completely understand how show business works. I'm telling
(05:00):
you that that he's done more of the anti Trump
you know, you know, f Trump and half the nation
than anybody. And that's how you get good guests on
your show. You know, you you become this you know,
sort of fanatic and your whole monologue and and and
same with the you know, with Stephen Colbert and the
other guys. But I heard that Jimmy Kimmel was really pissed.
(05:24):
Jim I don't think Jimmy Kimmel has ever won that.
He's always been up for it, so I don't He's
only won one Emmy Award, and I think it was
for the producing for producing the live version of Normal Yeah,
with the all of the Family.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Or whatever, the Norman Lear stuff. So that's right.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
This year is no different than than any other. And
you know, knowing Kimmel a little bit, not very well,
but knowing him a little bit, I don't think he's
not calculated in terms of getting guests, uh when it
comes to his show, because you know, the guests just.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
Go on because it's there, it's on its network. So
you know, I got it. Look, maybe you got maybe
you got different info. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
We know different people the business. You certainly do know
people in the business.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
That's right, all right?
Speaker 1 (06:03):
So what so the big last winter last night was
Showgun Showgun.
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Yeah, ins of in terms of number of awards, absolutely
with eighteen and in the most in the ever in
the Emmys for one year, no shows ever.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Won eighteen like that.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
Certainly period piece, lots of costumes, keeping those dry cleaners
in business, right, because you got a.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Lot of those costumes, that's right. They take them over
to the Milton Needes. There they do a really good
job on what is that show about? I've not heard
of it? Sixteenth century feudal Japan. Remember they did it.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
It was a mini series back in the I want
to say the seventies and I want to say NBC
at the time, same thing, based on a book sixteenth
century feudal Japan, Western and Eastern cultures colliding. Wore big
set pieces, those kinds of things, beautiful gune. You know,
it's a period thing. It's not for everybody. It can
(06:57):
be a little bit slow, but only very very well done.
And it was the kind of thing. It was going
to be a limited series and it was so good
for effects they made it into it's it's coming back
for another you know, I.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Don't know why the traditional networks like CBS, ABC and NBC.
I don't know why they keep hosting the Emmys because
they have all these shows on who.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
Win, and none of them are on their network.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
They're they're they're not, And that's that's been the thing
for a while. It's horrible, and it's it's kind of like.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
It's promoting everybody else's you know, streaming star but like, yeah,
here's the good TV.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
The good TV is over here, not not on where
we are. But also each one of these networks now
has a streaming component to it, so you know, yeah,
ABC didn't win in the Emmys, but Disney as a
whole won a ton of Emmys. Right, NBC particular didn't win,
but you know, the whole NBC Universal Family Corporate group.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
What was what was the vibe with the Scottish guy
with the kilt? What does he what is his show?
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Oh for Reindeer? Well, what is it? Dead Reindeer Baby,
Baby Reindeer Baby? Oh okay, baby Reindeer. Yeah. Yeah, there
was another there was another guy with the with.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
The kilt for the Traders This Big Night for Kid, Yeah,
Baby Reindeer. That was that the Netflix show which which
did really well. Richard Gadd he's the one who wrote
and produced that about uh he was a comic and
he got stalked by this chick and then it really my.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Daughter seemed to know the show because she said, Hey,
there's the woman who's the stalker in the show.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
I'm like, okay, I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
Yeah, now he's being sued by the woman who was
claims to be the real life stalker. Oh really, she
wants one hundred and seventy million dollars from Netflix. So
that didn't hurt it. It won and it won a
lot of awards, and he was celebrated. He was very
happy last night. That's pretty cool, buddy.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
I really appreciate coming on. Jason Nathanson, Thanks man.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Enjoy the art that fall weather.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
Okay, you're the best, all right, Jason Nathanson, ABC Reporter
the seventy sixth Annual Emmy Awards, hosted by Eugene and
Dan Levy.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
I thought that was great. I thought the hosting was terrific.
You watch your crows did not catch it? Now?
Speaker 5 (09:02):
Yeah, we got back from First Castle North and it
was about an hour in and Jane goes.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
Oh, I wanted to watch the levees and.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
You know, and where it was already begun. So we're like, yeah,
I'm not going to start from that. Well then screw it,
right right. I saw most of the stuff that won
I hadn't seen. I haven't seen any of the Showgun,
but all the rest of the stuff, yeah, the bear
and all. I got to see the Reindeers. It's it's
very well done, very uncomfortably good, excellent.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
And now that I know that the real stalkers suing
them at another level, that's right, all right, rely on camp.
We live in a country where you know, stalkers are
now suing people.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
That's unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
Being dong with you.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Beautiful day out today, man, spectacular. Hopefully all that heat

heat this weekend, and that sort of is horrible to
do to us, you know, just we thought we were
getting the Halloween and enjoying ourselves well this weekend ninety
six ninety on Sunday in the San Fernando Valley, ninety
six Monday ninety five, ninety five Tuesday, Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
So we're getting back.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Up to probably triple digits in southern California.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Enough enough with this heat. We get it, we get it.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Enough, all right, the Trump assassination update, Yes, another assassination
attempt on President Trump? Boy, what's going on? What's happening
in this world? Where you know? You hear about this
in other countries? Man, you don't hear about this in
the United States. And it's two in the last two months. Man,
(10:39):
oh man, what's going on? What's going on with these guys?
Speaker 7 (10:42):
By way of his background in two thousand and.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Two, this is a background on the shooter. His name
is Ryan Ruth Rouh.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Ryan Ruth by.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
Way of his background in two thousand and two is
the United States attorney mentioned. The subject was charged and
convicted in North Carolina for possession of a weapon of
mass destruction.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Wait, why what do you have, Adam Adam Baum?
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Weapon of mass destruction?
Speaker 1 (11:05):
We have a nuke his backyard, but this guy have
just a machine gun.
Speaker 7 (11:09):
Law enforcement checks also revealed they're from ninth.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Pen They're considering a machine gun a weapon of mass destruction.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I think they got update their definition there.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
Law enforcement checks also revealed that're from nineteen ninety seven
to twenty ten. The subject had numerous felony charges for
stolen goods.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Oh no, here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 7 (11:32):
I can also share with you that he was the
subject of a previously closed twenty nineteen tip to the FBI,
where it was alleged he was a felon in possession of.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
A firearm, yeah, machine gun.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
And following up on the tip, the alleged complaintant interviewed,
was interviewed and did not verify, I repeat, did not verify.
Providing the initial information. The FBI passed that information to
local lawn enforcement in Hollowe.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
You imagine how many times the FBI's got deal with
idiots all day long, all day, every day, complete idiots.
All Right, the assassination update here yesterday. I think it
happen around ten thirty. The first thing I got was
from a friend of mine again in me Soak said, Hey,
there's two guys shooting near the Trump golf course in Florida.
(12:24):
So I turned on MSNBC and the first thing they
had was there is no evidence that any of those
gunshots were directed towards Donald Trump, which is true? Which
is true? A Manda, this guy get close. This guy
got close, second time in two months. In acting This
is Joe Biden talking about the assassination, attempting and.
Speaker 8 (12:43):
Acting head of the Secret Services in Florida today assessing
what happened in determined whether any further adjustments need to
be made to be sure the safety of our former president.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
It sounds pretty good, huh.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
This guy for being booted around and kicked off the ticket,
sounds pretty good to.
Speaker 8 (12:57):
Be sure the safety of our former president.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
HU.
Speaker 8 (13:00):
Let me just say there's no and I mean this
from the bottom. Those of you who know me, many
of you do no place in political violence. For political
violence in America, none.
Speaker 9 (13:10):
Former President Trump posted on X quote, I would like
to thank everyone for your concern and while wishes it
was certainly an interesting day. Most importantly, I want to
thank the US Secret Service, Sheriff Rick Bradshaw and his
office of brave and dedicated patriots and all of law
enforcement for the incredible job done today at Trump International
and keeping me as a forty fifth president of the
(13:31):
United States and the Republican nominee in the upcoming presidential
election safe. Trump went on to say the job done
was absolutely outstanding. I am very proud to be an American.
Trump is blaming.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
The that that song he starts with proud to be.
Speaker 9 (13:45):
American crowd, to be an American.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Ow to be an American, Proud to be an American.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
She's trying to sing it.
Speaker 9 (13:55):
Trump is blaming the president and Vice President Kamala Harris.
He told Fox News that their rhetoric caused him to
be shot.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
At Oh boy.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
All right, Well, I don't know what it is, but
a lot of guys can't stand this guy. A lot
of guys, you know, are looking to to kill him.
And you know, watching the Emmys last night, I did
notice that nobody brought it up, you know, and I
sort of get that because Hollywood. It's really difficult to
find a job in Hollywood that you can retire on
(14:25):
where you get the residuals and you can buy a
nice house in Malibu and hang out with Jennifer Aniston
and the friends. It's very difficult to find one of
those jobs. It's almost impossible, and so you don't want
to do anything at all.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
That would question whether they should hire you or not.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
And if you come out on stage, you're like, hey, look,
I don't vote for Trump, but let's got we got
to stop shooting this guy. I think there's a lot
of people in Hollywood that would consider that to be
pro Trump.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
That's where we are. That's where we are in life.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
And no buddy in Hollywood wants to do that, Nate,
because you get that Trump stink on you in Hollywood
and you're done. You are done. Don't mention it. Don't
mention it. Man, they'll boot you out of that. That's
a small little club and you can't get can't get
anywhere near that wearing a Maga hat. Or you saw
what they've done to people. You know, people have come
(15:21):
out and just liked some posts that that Trump put
up or Republican Republicans put up. They throw your ass
out immediately. You were blackballed, and you're never ever allowed
back in show business.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Never. And it was sort of the exact opposite of you.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Know, back in early show business when they thought communists
were invading show business and if you were even thought
to be a communist, they'd throw you out. You never
work again, you'd get blacklisted and you'd never work again. Well,
it's gone to the other extreme now. So if you
mentioned your conservative or perhaps voting for Trump, that's a wrap,
(15:59):
and that is a wrap on you. You are done.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
So I do get that. I do understand people trying
to protect their careers. I get it.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
I understand it. It's sad, but I do get it.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I do understand that.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
All Right, we're gonna we've got some more information on
the assassination attempt yesterday. Maybe you know, there's a lot
of people that didn't really hear about it until later on,
because if you're watching football and and you're not, you know,
you don't have friends that follow the news, you may
not have heard about it until you know, five, six,
seven o'clock at night, after the you know, football is
(16:34):
over and and you catch a little bit of news.
If you heard, if you're listening to KFI, you heard
it immediately. Immediately. They were all over it, man. And
so we'll come back with some more information.
Speaker 6 (16:47):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Forty Trump assassination attempt, the second one in two months.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
And it's uh, it's not good.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
It is not good to have one of these two candidates,
either one knocked off or shot at or hospitalized. It
is going to create a tremendous, tremendous amount of hostility
in this country. And so more on the on the
the update here. Also very sad yesterday, Tito Jackson passed away.
(17:22):
We're gonna more on him later. But I used to
drive Tito Jackson his kids around. It used to be
a limousine driver.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
One of the.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Nicest cats you'll ever ever meet. It's sad to see
them all.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Right.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
Another update here, some more updates on the Trump assassination
update from yesterday, and see what's going on. We've got
any more new information here? And actually is Joe Biden
talking about this? And then we also have the security
at let's see here, Yeah, the Trump security.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Now, let's play this one.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
The Trump security at Palm Beach, I guess is going
into complete overdrive, where if you live in Palm Beach,
you're not gonna get anywhere near this guy anymore.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
They've had it.
Speaker 10 (18:02):
The security level at Mar Alago is the highest that
can possibly be now. The road closures are back in
place and will remain there. The check plots are in place,
and my commitment to the Secret Service is to give
them every possible resource from PbSO once they determine the
level of security that they need, they will get all
the resources possible.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
And it's got to irritate because everybody lives around Trump
is a billionaire or you know, hundreds of millionaires or whatever.
But they've got to be pissed because now everywhere they
go they've got to show their ID, they got to wait,
they got to in a line to get through, to
get a pass, to get on a certain road, and
in enrich people. If you know any of them, they
(18:44):
hate being told what to do, they hate standing in line,
they hate being told.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
What to do. And they're not going to like this
at all.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Now it's going to be more secure for them, but
they have their own security and they don't really need
the Secret Service or FBI or they know, Palm Beach
police departments sniffing around. But they can't stand this kind
of crap. They're just not into it. And but they're
going to get it. They're gonna get it. There's gonna
be a lot of security, lots of it over the
next uh, you know, at least a couple of months,
(19:13):
and if Trump wins, over the next four years, it's
going to be a complete fortress. Joe Biden talking about
getting Trump more Secret Service.
Speaker 7 (19:23):
Thank god the president.
Speaker 10 (19:25):
Okay, I think we've got a full report so far.
Speaker 8 (19:27):
One thing I want to make clear, Service needs for help.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I think the Congress should respond to their needs if.
Speaker 8 (19:33):
The fact need more service. So that's what we're going
to be talking about.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
The more personnel, they need, more money, what kind of help, youse?
Speaker 8 (19:43):
I think we need some more person I think they
may need They made the deciding whether they need more
personnel or not.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Now this guy sounds great since he was booted off
the ticket. I mean he really does sound like he
you know, four or five, ten years ago, Joe Biden.
Speaker 8 (19:57):
I think we need some more first. I think they
may need they hey, the society, whether they need for
a personnel or not.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
Yeah, that sounds pretty good.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
And he's got to be probably pissed too, you know
that they took that away from him. Very tough become
president the United States and if somebody just take it
away from you, Oh that's tough.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
That is a tough move.
Speaker 8 (20:15):
And acting head of the Secret Services in Florida today
assessing what happened in determining whether any further adjustment teed
to be made to be sure the safety.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Of our former president, that sounds great.
Speaker 8 (20:26):
Let me just say there's no and I mean this
from the bottom of those of you who know me.
Speaker 2 (20:30):
Many of you do, and this is where he starts
yelling again. No place in a political.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Violence, no place, all right, but anyway, so they're trying
to figure out what this side, you know, this dope
is all about, you know, just another one of these
guys who you know, sort of lost in life. And
life is made up of two different people. People that
help society move ahead, maybe in a very small way,
(20:54):
maybe in a big way. And those are and then
the other group are people that try to it down,
you know, people that kill one another, people that start
big fires like we've seen the bridge fire, the airport fire,
the line fire. Those are the type people that try
to tear society down because for some reason they just
can't add to it. And you can add to it
(21:16):
in a very simple way, you know, whether it's you know,
cleaning the floors at at a at a seven to
eleven at night, you know, or I don't know, you know,
cleaning the bathrooms the public bathrooms of the beach, or
on a high level, you know, you know, working your
ass off on creating some you know drug that's a
miracle drug that helps people beat cancer. So but whatever
(21:40):
it is, moving society forward is the way to go
in life. And when you don't feel like you can
do that. You start slipping and getting crazy, and your
thought process goes nuts. Maybe you're broke, you're out of money,
you're done, and then you start getting angry and then
you take out your anger on people. These never I'm
(22:00):
sure this guy's never met Trump. But here's the more information,
the summary of what's going on with this guy, This
Ryan Ruth, this.
Speaker 11 (22:09):
Suspect of what is now being investigated as a second
attempted assassination of former President Trump has been identified author
already to say his name is Ryan Wesley Roath. He
allegedly poked his muzzle of his AK forty seven Star
rifle through a changeling fence as he was hiding in
the bushes of former President Trump's golf course at West
(22:31):
Palm Beach, Florida.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
That's when an agent saw it and opened fire.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
You know, they said that guy that you know, this
Ryan Ruth or Roth whatever however hally pronounced it had
been there for twelve hours, you know, just waiting. He
got there around one thirty in the morning and was
hiding in the bushes for twelve hours. But the big
question is how did he know that Donald Trump was
going to be playing golf because it wasn't on his
public schedule.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Very few people knew. How did he know? How did
he know? That's a great question. How did he know.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
That Donald Trump is going to be playing golf? And man,
that Secret Service agent was on top of it, you know,
scanning around and being able to see from probably a
couple of hundred yards away of binoculars that somebody had
an AK forty seven or a gun pointed towards the
you know, the golf course. That guy. I don't know
if that if that agent's name has been released or not,
(23:25):
but man, that guy deserves an award, an ATA boy
at least.
Speaker 11 (23:28):
The Trump campaign releasing the statement just after two o'clock
this afternoon, President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity.
No further details at this time. Those gunshots, we now know,
we're fired by that Secret Service agent.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Growth now in custody.
Speaker 1 (23:45):
Yeah, huge story over the weekend, big, big story over
the weekend. And man, I don't know, we kind of
calmed down as a country, but a lot of people
they hate this Trump And there are a lot of
people listing right now and a lot people in LA
who I you know, can't stand to me either. And
(24:05):
there's a lot of silence, a lot of silence on Twitter.
I've noticed that the people that you know that destroyed
Trump every day and you know, f Trump and I
hope he gets his you know what, what's coming to him,
and then when somebody tries to kill him, a lot
of silence, a lot of silence on Twitter.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
Screams volumes, some people screams volumes.
Speaker 6 (24:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from
kf I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Hey at five o'clock. In about twelve minutes or whatever.
After that break, Peter Tilden's coming out with us. I
used to be on KBC. Now he's doing a podcast
and I called really, no, really, I think that's Sam
and he's great.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Peter Tilten is one of the funniest guys.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
In in in radio, and I'm glad he's coming in
and so we're gonna have him on at five o'clock.
Cool dude, really a funny guy, all right. Tito Jackson
passed away. That sucks. I love Tito Jackson. I used
to drive him and his very young kids around in
nineteen had his nineteen eighty three eighty four eighty five,
(25:14):
So I don't know how old Peter. I don't know
how old Tito was back then, but it would had
to be fifteen.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
It was.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
It was almost forty years ago, so he must have been,
you know, thirty, So it was nineteen eighty five fifteen,
and that was twenty thirty nine years ago, so almost
forty years ago. He was thirty and had I think
he had one or two kids. But I used to
drive the Jackson family in the limousine. He used to
(25:43):
drive for a company called TJ. Livery or Revel Travel,
and for two years drove a limousine and the Jackson's
were a big client at Revel Travel, and so I
picked them up. I don't know monthly, you know, go
to Michael Jackson's home, pick him up his mom to
a party. Remember they had a big, huge party for her.
(26:04):
I don't know whether it was her sixtieth or seventieth,
but they had a big party in Beverly Hills for
I remember driving the family over there. As a matter
of fact, I remember getting to the Jackson house early.
I don't want to say where it is in the valley,
although I think everybody knows where it is. I can
say it's an Encino, but I think everybody knows where
the Jackson House is. And I used to like to
(26:27):
get to like if a flight was leaving at three,
I used to like to leave pick them up at
one o'clock. Now, if your flight leaves at three, you
leave it, you know, nine am to get to the airport.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
But back then it was a leiser.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
And so I got to their house for a three
o'clock flight right around one o'clock and somebody said, oh, no,
the flight's been delayed.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
It's not until five.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
I said, oh, I'll come back at you know three,
and one of the Jackson I remember who it was.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
I think it was Reedy who said, no, no, come on, and.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
We're just sitting around or nothing, you know, uh, you know,
have a coke or seven or whatever. And so I
went into the Jackson House and I couldn't believe it.
And they're all sitting right there. They're all just sitting there.
And were they sitting in order like they did when
they performed.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
You know what?
Speaker 2 (27:16):
I don't know. Maybe they maybe they are used to
that and they just automatically do that.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
I think Tita was always on the far left, and
then it was Shacky and then Germane and the problem
was always in the front right beside Michael because they
were about the same size.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
They were the best man.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
I remember when my dad, Tim Conway was playing with
Open for the Pointer Sisters in Las Vegas at Caesar's Palace.
I went and stayed with my dad for a couple
of weeks because, uh, I.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Was a problem child, right, a slow learner, not.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Really bright, not really, you know, just sort of getting
in trouble. And uh, listen, you know what it was.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
You were bored because you were so smart.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Every Dad's right. All the work they were having you
do just for you. So that's exactly that's what I
try to tell him. And that's the big laughs after that,
you know, big gut laughs, like for ten minutes. But no,
So I went to Las Vegas and stay with my
dad and he would do shows on Wednesday or no Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,
(28:17):
two on Saturday, and I had Sunday off, and so
we on Sunday he says, hey, do you want to
go across the street to Bally's which was back then.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
It was the MGM.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
There's a new group playing and I said sure, and
that happened to be The Jackson five. And so we
were sitting there like fifth row, just my dad and
I watching The Jackson five. And after the show, I
remember saying to my dad was like, you know, nineteen
seventy one, seventy two, seventy three, somewhere on there. And
I said, hey, I think that the smallest kid, I
(28:49):
think his name is Michael.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
I think he's got some talent. He's got something. Yeah,
And my dad said, I agree with you.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
And so my dad and I I think discovered somewhat,
you know, on a loose level, you know, not as
a formal level. We certainly didn't negotiate on his behalf
or you know, make any deals on his behalf. But
I think my dad and I recognized that Michael Jackson
had some talent, you know, even at a young age,
even at a very young age. Well, I got to
find out what year that was, because I definitely went
(29:16):
to see him at the MGM.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
I want to find out what year this was.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
I'm going to guess nineteen seventy three or seventy four
before I look this up.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
And you were saying that they that they opened for
the Pointer sister. No, my dad opened for the Pointer system,
so you're dad opened for the Point and the Jacksons
were opening.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
For I don't know Jackson five. Let me see MGM
in Vegas in the nineteen seventies.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
I want to find out what year that was, because
I never looked that up to the seventy four.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
All right, seventy four September, that makes sense, Yeah, September
or before school started to play four that's fright.
Speaker 5 (29:50):
Fourteen nights at the MGM Grand.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
All right, that makes sense because I was staying with
my dad before school started, and that was one of
the great times in my life, just me and my
dad hanging out in Vegas. Probably not so great for
my dad, you know, making a ton of money without
my mom around, and I could really stretch out, enjoyed
gambling and then his dopey kid was with him for
(30:12):
two weeks.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
But yeah, it was.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
It was August twenty first of September third, nineteen seventy four.
As part of their world tour, they played the MGM
Grand in Las Vegas and we went to one of
those shows.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
That's wild, but.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
Tito Jackson one of the coolest guys in the world.
You never saw him pissed. He was always happy. He
always had a huge smile and always treated everybody beautifully,
just like family. This Tito Jackson, guess one of the
great guys I've ever met in my life.
Speaker 5 (30:41):
And back then when they toured together, especially that specific
that world tour that they called it, they actually did
perform with all of the sisters as well, Janet reebe LaToya.
They all performed in defferent like they say.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Is that right?
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (30:53):
Wow? A family, No kidding, They're going to take off.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
A member of the famous Jackson family and the Jackson
Tito Jackson has passed away. Tito's three sons confirming the
news in an Instagram post, which read, in part, it's
with heavy hearts that we announced that our beloved father
Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Tito Jackson is no
longer with us. Sources to say Jackson died while traveling
from New Mexico to Oklahoma on yesterday. His longtime family
(31:19):
friend and manager tells Entertainment Tonight he believes he suffered
a heart attack. Jackson was the third of nine Jackson children.
He was seventy years old.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
You know, I just remember even a couple of weeks ago,
maybe a month ago. He's in Germany at the Michael
Jackson memorial. I think it's in Berlin. And he was
just in one of those magazines like People magazine or
something online literally a month ago, maybe two months ago,
and I saw that and I thought, oh, that's cool.
He looks great, Tito Jackson and then evidently had a
(31:51):
massive heart attack and passed away. That tour that you're
talking about this you saw him on in nineteen seventy four.
That was the last time.
Speaker 5 (31:58):
That was the last world tour that the fa family did,
or the Jackson five at least did, until all the
way ten years later when they got together for that
Victory tour after Michael had his six Was that right? Wow,
last time they perforred together on tour? Was that tour
you saw them on? Oh that's crazy, ma'am. What a
treat that was? Yeah, be able to see them live?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
And they did.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
They did like an hour and a half almost a
two hour show it was, or maybe a little less
than that.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
But did they say who they opened for or there
the Las Vegas Review.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
Or were they the headliner? Maybe they maybe the headliner maybe,
but man, that place was to be able to walk
across the street from Caesar's Palace over to Bally's or
MGM back then. And that was before the MGM had
that big fire where a lot of people didn't quite
make it, but and that you know, they almost the
(32:49):
entire casino almost burned down, the casino, the hotel, everybody.
I don't remember how many people died in that in
that fire. But that was a horrible, horrible time for
Las Vegas. But it was before the MGM was great.
It was you know, it was still like Frank Sinatra
would play there, you know, and the rat Pack, and
that was a good time, good time to be in Vegas.
(33:11):
And that in Vegas, oh you know, back in nineteen
seventy four, that was not an interior airport. Every time
you land in Vegas you had to get off the
plane on stairs and walk into that's right. Yeah, So
we left the Burbank which was Burbank still that way,
and you fly to Vegas and you know, it's one
hundred and ten degrees out. You have to get off
that plane and crawl on those stairs to get to
(33:32):
you know, the airport.
Speaker 5 (33:33):
That's fascinating to me, that decent Burbank is still like that.
Is that because of size or is it just kind
of like the nostalgic aspect of it.
Speaker 1 (33:39):
No, because they they've been talking for thirty years on
renovating that airport. Yeah, and they finally just got the
money and the plans and everything. Okay, So in the
next three years you're going to see that airport turn
into a typical airport where you don't have to go outside, okay,
And they're going to take the terminal and move it
down over onto I believe it's Hollywood way.
Speaker 2 (34:02):
They're going to move the entire airport.
Speaker 5 (34:04):
That's what I was wondering about. How much space they
have to be able to expand like that.
Speaker 2 (34:07):
They got a lot, They got a lot there.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
There's a big Amazon warehouse there, and then all that
property between the Amazon warehouse and the runway is all
going to be the new airport, the new bourbank here.
Speaker 5 (34:15):
So they're going to do it basically like they did
with Ontario right around two thousand, where Ontario got.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
The new terminal exactly and they went from tarmac as well.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
And it's supposed to be spectacular. It's going to be
the premier airport in southern California. Just in time for
the Olympics, that's right, and having people flying into Burbank Airport.
All right, we'll all weaking back. Peter Tilden will be
with us. We're live on KFI AM six forty Conway
show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you can
always hear us live on KFI AM six forty four
