Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to The
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio apps. It is
the Conway Show, all right, dingdlling everybody. We have a
fairly unusual or I should say, very unusual set of
circumstances that have happened here at iHeart Medium and without
(00:23):
going into great detail because I don't know a lot
of the details yet, and some of the details that
I do know, I don't know what I can say
on the air, So all I can tell you is
at five oh eight pm or starting at five pm,
the Los Angeles Dodgers will be on KFI, and you'll
be listening to every single pitch instead of me, you know,
(00:43):
talking about I don't know the latest crime, how's the weather,
and then looking at the game the entire show. Now
you're gonna be listening to the Dodgers right here on KFI,
and it'll seem like old times. The Dodgers used to
be on KFI back in the sixties and seventies, Wasn't
that right, Croz, I think that word is new. Yeah,
(01:03):
So the Dodgers are coming home, which means I think
they're gonna win. All right, You know, because they're on KFI.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
They almost gonna have to now right.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Right, you're you're on the more powerful station. I'm not
saying the higher rated. Yeah maybe, okay, but there's they're
gonna be on the premiere talk station in in the country,
and they're gonna be on KFI at at five pm,
and and then we'll be on stream or something.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
We're we're working on the technical aspects of hopefully continuing
our show on the stream. It's it's all. We literally
have an hour to go to try to make this happen.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
I see.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
But but the game, the Dodger game will be on
AM five seventy on the iHeart app as well as
being heard on KFI, if on on the radio.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Okay, all right, So we don't know where we're gonna
be at though, correct, okay, all right, So we might
be on the air, we might be off the air.
We are right now though, But if we're on streaming only,
there's no FCC rules, oh my god, you know, there's
just there's just in house standard and standards and practices.
We know how loose those are, you know. So I
(02:15):
don't know whether we're going to have traffic.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Angel.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I don't know what you'll be doing at five o'clock.
Maybe you'll be doing nothing, who.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Knows, maybe yea, who knows. But it's exciting, it's different.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And we don't know whether we're going to be on
We know that the Dodgers are going to be on
KFI starting at five pm.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
So spread the word.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
This might be your last opportunity to hear the Dodgers
on KFI. It may never happen again, may never happen again.
It's an unusual set of circumstances that made this happen today,
and it may never happen again. So on social media,
spread the word Dodgers Game five is going to be
(02:55):
right here on KFI.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
AM six forty now.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
And when I heard it, when I came in and
Bellio said, Hey, we're gonna be broadcasting the Dodger game,
I thought, for a split second, it's gonna be me
and Rick Monday calling the game.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
And I thought, man, I gotta get prepared for this.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
And you need to get over this to New York. No.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I thought they I could do it from here.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Oh that would be so awesome, you know, because because
a lot of these games lights, football games. You know,
the guys don't go to the the different states and
broadcasts they broadcast here.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
And and from your interview with him just a few
days ago, Monday loves you.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
So Rick and I back together doing games again. Well
I guess not again, but doing games right. But so
I thought, just for a split second and beat myself
and Rick Monday call the game.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Oh my god, I'd so listen week Oh my god,
bring that on. Man.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I don't know if you watched last night's game, CROs,
but and when they went after Mookie Beds, I I'll
tell you they and I think the reason why Dodger
fans are pissed today it's not because New York fans
got out of contry. I think we've all but everybody's
been to a game has gotten out of control. At
some point you regret what you did the next day.
I give him a pass on that, except they don't
(04:06):
regret it. Yeah, maybe they don't. But I think a
lot of people that do you go and you drink,
and you say something or do something, you get thrown
I've been thrown out of arenas before. I was almost
thrown out of a King game a year ago with
my daughter, A year ago, one year ago to one
year ago.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I think today, I think it's this month a year ago.
What is wrong with you. We were going down the.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Escalator, you know, there's the escalator all the way from
the nosebleed down to the street level. Yeah, And I
was carrying a bag of Wetzels pretzels, and in one
hand I had napkins. The other hand I had a bag.
And I got on the escalator and I slipped a
little and I went to grab the railing and forty
(04:46):
napkins rained all over, all over everybody, down the ground security,
you know, a season seat holders, everybody. And when I
got down to the bottom, the guy says, you're picking
every one of those napkins up or you're auty. And
I said, I did it accidentally. He says, it doesn't
look like you did it accidentally. It looks like you
did it on purpose. I said, I'm here with my daughter.
Why would I do it on purpose. I got into
(05:07):
a little argument with him. I picked up every dampkin
so I could stay in the game, but man, I
almost got kicked out, and they would have thrown my
daughter out too.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Get out. You're with him out, get out.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
But I think we all took it personally last night
because it was Mookie bets If it was Will Smith,
if it was key A Hernandez, if it was I
don't know, I'm I you know whoever named you know,
the nine hundred guys on the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
If it was you know, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
If it was you know, Freddie Freeman, Munsey, any of
these guys, then I think it would have it would
have been different. But because it's Mookie Bets and I
think if it was Freddy Freeman and we had also
had the same reaction. Those are the two guys who
we consider family, and we think that those guys are family.
(05:57):
Those guys are you know, perfect human beings, the most
likable guys, the most charitable guys. And when you screw
around with Mookie Betsie Freddy Freeman, that means that you
screwed around with us.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
That's what got his pissed.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, Mookie's got a special thing going on with with La.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
And the fans.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
He does, and so does Freddy Freeman. And you screw
out either those two guys and people get crazy crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
But you know, you do it too.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I don't know, you know, any of the pictures or
you know, or Hansen or any of these guys you know,
coming out of the bullpen, like who cares?
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Who cares?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
But because it's Freddy, because Freddy Freeman or Mookie Bets,
that's where we draw the line. That's where we draw
the line.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
All right.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So if you're just tuning in, there was a problem
here at our heart media, a problem that I think
they've solved. But the Los Angeles Dodgers will be broadcast
on AM five seventy l A Sports, but also on
KFI because we have a stronger signal here than they do.
They've been they've reduced power over or at five seventy am.
(07:01):
And I can't go into the details on why or
how it happened, or you know who did it or whatever,
but I can tell you in forty seven minutes, the
Los Angeles Dodgers will be back on KFI.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
This is not a joke, by the way, it's not.
It's it is for people to say, this is ball crap. No,
this is real.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
This is You'll find out how real it is in
forty seven minutes when we're not on the air and
the Dodgers are on the air, So the Dodgers KFI
to Night on KFI A six forty. Are we gonna
take a break. When we come back, We've got some
more Dodger news for you. We have an earthquake up
in Oregon. And then we have a very high official
(07:44):
upper echelon of l a U s D to talk
about a program that I was unaware of, but is
something unbelievable that LAUSD is doing.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I was.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
I'm a product of LAUSD. I went to Concino Elementary,
Portolo Junior High and then birming, I'm high school and
so I went through l a U s D. I

the faculty. But one of the one of the the
people who run a very special program with LAUSD, is
(08:17):
going to be on with us in this hour, and
I urge you to listen to it because it's a really,
really big deal. She's doing unbelievable work with the kids
here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI

Speaker 1 (08:34):

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Now, if we I think we're going to be on
the stream on the KFI stream, we're not going to
broadcast the Dodger game on the stream myself. Krozier Angel
steffuj and Bellio all on the stream. We're trying starting
at five pm. That may or may not happen, but
you have to download the app. To get the stream,
you have to down the iHeartRadio app and then hit
(09:51):
the stream on fine Kfi hit the stream.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I've had a rental car for about a week now. Yeah,
it's so special. Uh, but the rental car does not
have the HD radio. So I've been using the app
in my rental car, which I don't generally use the
app because of either I'm here or you know, I
have it in my car with the HD So it's
a totally different experience listening to the app in my car,
(10:15):
and so it's always a good thing just to have
in there, if for no other reason to that, you know,
if you got a rental car or something like that,
because not all rental cars have HD radios.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
As I found out, I'm old school the last two
nights and I have to listen to Rick Monday call
the game.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
I don't mind TV, but it's too neutral for me.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I need homers, and even though they're not I consider
them my guys. So I drove out to Valencia. If
last two nights just to listen to the game on
the way out there. I don't care if I I'm
caught in traffic and I'm an old school idiot because
I'm listening at five seventy am and I pass power
polls and I got to speed up because I can't.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
It's interference.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
And if i'm I don't go into underpass is if
a play, like an important play is going on, And
then if I'm sitting in parking lot, I gotta find
the perfect place in the.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Parking lot where I get the signal. Old school, old school.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
That is a drawback with HD radio as well, because
you'll lose you'll lose a signal in it.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
With H I didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, it's it's very much like but because it's digital,
it doesn't get scratchy.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's just gone, oh, I see, okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Anyway, So the Dodgers, the Los Angeles Dodgers playing the
Yankees on KFI tonight at five pm. I think we'll
be on the stream. I can't guarantee that, but that's.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
What it looks like.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Working off time, all right, working our asses off. The Dodgers.
They're going to play Game five two night on KFI.
All right, let's talk about Rob Gronkowski. He is in
college friends with the guy who interfered with the Mookie
Betts catch. Let's find out what his connection is to
(11:56):
this chap who got his ass thrown out of the
state and the Yankees said, no, we want him back,
and they offered him two free seats and Major League
Baseball said, he's not coming back. He knew the rules,
he knew the boundaries. Mahallow, you're not coming back. And
Major League Baseball said, no, he's not coming into the stadium.
(12:18):
You can watch outside if he likes, he's not coming in.
So let's find out what Rob Gronkowski used to play
with the with the Bostons. I played with the New
Patriots one year with Tampa too.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Oh that's right.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Yeah, he went to Tampa as well. But he's got
a boatload of rings as well. And now he's on
I think he's on Fox on their pregame, post game
and halftime show on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
He's great. I love that dude.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Let's find out how what his connection is with the
guy who interfered with Mookie Betts.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
This is actually the first time I'm seeing this live
and here's a little fun fact. That guy right there
grabbing Mookie Bets's glove was my friend in college. He
was on the ice hockey team, the club Arizona Wildcats
team ice hockey team, and let me tell you, the
whole hockey team. Absolutely, they were absolute maniacs. They were
(13:08):
undescribable just how wild animals, yes, how wild these guys were.
Him doing that represents him very well. I mean, he
is all in for his teams. He is all in
for them.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
You gotta respect that as much as you hate him
doing it. The Mookie beds he's a real fan. He's
a real fan. He's got seasoned seats down there. He's
protecting his area. He's the king of that corner.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I have a little respect for that.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
But what I don't have respect for is anybody touching
Mookie Bets. That's our Mookie Bets for the Yankees.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
I remember him talking about the Yankees all the time,
how he loves him so much, and that describes him perfectly,
just doing whatever it takes to help his team out.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
But I can't believe that Rob Grenkowski's friends with this guy.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
The odds of that beauty.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
He is a beauty.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
I just want to say congratulations, graduation for shining when
your moment came.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
We're not talking any football. I need to recue the tape. Gronk,
you can call him a beauty?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Is that?
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Will you tell me that you're telling me this is okay?
Speaker 5 (14:11):
No, I'm not saying that's something.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
Well, now I want you to tell me what you
think of what your friend did.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
No, No, I'm not. I mean I haven't talked to
him in a while.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
I mean walk it back. Yeah, yeah, I mean.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
If Gronk's calling you a maniac, that's about all you
need to know.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
They were fun, that's for sure.
Speaker 5 (14:29):
He's a fun dude.
Speaker 6 (14:30):
Uh, Gronk, this is this is unhinged behavior.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
It is unacceptable, definitely in the world of sports. But
when you're that big of a fan, that's what fans do.
I mean, whenever they have an opportunity to do that.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
And I read, uh, yeah, those are those are real.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Those are like raiders fans, you know, get dressed up
before the game and you got to respect that. And
I was wondering, does the guy put that face paint
on on the weight of the game. He drives the
game like that with the big shoulders and the big
big skeletons on his shoulders.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
I don't know, don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
He got it down to get in the door, yeah,
or does he do it at the in the parking lot.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
I don't know. It's odd odd.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
He got interviewed by ESPN. I read it this morning.
He said him and his friend talked about it every
single time they were at a Yankees game. What would
they do if that situation occurred? And he said they
would do it again, and that's what they would do.
They would stand up and protect the d That's what
we're attach the g That's what he said.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
It's they could have ripped Mookie's arm off.
Speaker 5 (15:28):
I think it's truly unacceptable. I mean that that active behavior,
but I mean.
Speaker 6 (15:33):
The fact that you know him, that must have been
Laith right next to him. I mean, I don't know
that guy's going to need a stand in or something.
They got kicked out, they're apparently they're allowed back in. Uh,
this is about the craziest thing I've ever seen. Of course,
of course you know.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
This guy, that is kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I think that they were that they were banned from
Game five, so maybe they're allowed on the ground somehow.
But I thought I had read that they were banned
from Game four.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
I heard that the Yankees won and back because they,
you know, weirdly consider them a good luck charm. And
then Major League Baseball when Major when the when the
World Series happens, major League Baseball takes over both stadiums
and they run the show. And Major League Baseball said, no, no, no,
that guy's not coming back. And I guess he was
a season pass hold, yeah, seat holder, Yeah, yeah, they
can go with.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
That guy, all right, come back.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
We'll talk about la USD, an unbelievable story and this
this woman, Denise Miranda. I can't believe what she does
for l a us D. I've never heard of this before,
but helps these kids out in a way that is unequaled,
never heard it before. And you'll you're gonna love this
story of and come back. The Dodgers will be on
(16:37):
KFI to night at five pm.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
That's not a joke.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
The Dodgers will be on KFI tonight the stronger signal.
We've had a problem with the other signal with the
AM five seventy l A Sports, So they're gonna be
on KFI tonight starting at five p m.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
KFI saves the day.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
That's right, ding dong.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
I wonder if we charge them for that, if there's
a money exchanging hands, and.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I wonder if you get paid. I don't know, I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Forty Big news here at KFI. The La Dodgers are
taking over at five pm. We're going to be leaving
the KFI studio and going onto streaming only. So download
the app and we'll be on stream only. KFI will
be on six forty AM over the airwaves and then
we'll be on stream. But the nice thing is there's
(17:32):
no FCC rules when it comes to streaming, so a
little more leeway tonight between five and seven pm. All right,
So Dodgers tonight five pm right here on KFI. That's
about a less than a half hour away. We have
a very special person here from LAUSD. Her name is
Denise Miranda. Welcome to KFI, nice to see you. Thank you.
(17:56):
You run the Homeless is It Outreach Program, Homeless Education Office.
And I read an article. I don't know where I
found this, but somebody sent me an article and I
couldn't believe this, and I went through LAUSD. I went
to Encino Elementary, Portol Junior High and then Birmingham High School,
(18:17):
and I felt like I was in a prison for
twelve years for a murder I didn't commit.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
But that's old LAUSD, that is old Lauas old school.
That's right.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
But the new LAUSD has some challenges, and you're so
beautiful to take care a lot of this. I didn't
realize that there's seventeen thousand students at LAUSD who are
experiencing homelessness.
Speaker 7 (18:38):
Yes, last year, over seventeen thousand families identified themselves as
experiencing God.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
You know, when I was growing up, my mom and
dad were always home, the electricity was never shut off.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
We always had something.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
To eat, and I found it tough to wake up
and go to school every day. I can't imagine if
you're homeless or experiencing somewhat, you know, some level of homelessess,
homeless and getting up to school and go to school
every day, right, I don't know how they do that right.
Speaker 7 (19:04):
And a lot of our students who are experiencing home
syts are also moving every night, and they also face
food insecurity. They suffer from trauma from whatever led their
family to that particular you know, housing situation.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
And so yeah, it's it's difficult. And then and another thing,
you told me this off the air. There are ten
thousand students who are in foster care. Yes, and they've
and they got to get up and you know, every
morning at six six thirty get themselves ready and go
to school.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
I don't know how they do it.
Speaker 7 (19:35):
Yeah, we have some amazing counselors and support staff obviously,
the leadership at the school sites, the teachers, the counselors,
the nurses, the bus drivers. It really is a team
effort to ensure that all of our students show up
every day.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
And then you're doing something I've never seen before, and
I don't know if it's happening in any other school
system in America, But you have five different boutiques that
have clothes and access series for kids who need it,
and you give them to them for free. They're all donations.
And you have five boutiques where a kid can come in,
no questions asked, I believe, and they can get clothes
(20:10):
and equipment and accessories for schools.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
Right.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
So we just had our grand opening. We have five
clothing boutiques for students experiencing homelessness. And we wanted to
ensure that our students came to school and clothing and
shoes actually is one of the barriers to attending school.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
So we were able to.
Speaker 7 (20:31):
Utilize our funding this last year and open five clothing boutiques.
Students come in and have a shopping experience. I'm a
bit of a shopaholic.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Good for you.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
My mom will tell you that. And so we wanted
to provide that opportunity to our students so they can
come in and get clothes all year. We have seasonal
clothing summer, winter, spring, and fall, as well as shoes, undergarments,
anything that they would need to feel comfortable.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
And who qualifies any student.
Speaker 7 (20:58):
Who has a current student housing questionnaire on file? They
have to have been identified as a student experiencing homelessness.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Okay? And you operate on grants and donations.
Speaker 7 (21:09):
We receive federal dollars and donations as well, okay.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
And and you must be relieved when those are okayed
and approved. Absolutely, If not, you've go out of business.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
Right, well, we always have. We always have partnerships and
donors self.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Oh good, Now do you accept monetary donations.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
We do. We accept monetary donations and new or even
gently used clothes. Obviously we prefer new clothes, but sure
if they're gently used, we would definitely have our students
partaken in those donations.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
And those kids must feel like a million bucks to
come in there and get all new clothes. It makes
their it makes go because I know kids are very
sensitive about going to school and looking and fitting in
and looking good at that age, right.
Speaker 7 (21:51):
The purpose really was to make sure that students feel
good about themselves, have the ability to have clothes that
are new, clean, and appropriate for whatever age group we're serving.
And we provide services for students in Universal Transition kindergarten all.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
The way through twelfth grade.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Okay, And there's five different boutiques, yes, and what are
they open during the day weekends?
Speaker 7 (22:14):
They're open during the day. So families, if they're in
need of clothing for their students, they can connect with
any of our counselors as are part of our our
department rather students support programs, and a referral can be
made and students can go with their counselors to shop
or counselors can do. We have a drive up where
counselors can place the order, drive up to the boutique
(22:36):
and receive the clothing.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
So that is so few options, all right.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
So can I give the phone number out if people
want to donate? Yes, please, Okay, let make sure I
have it right here. Two one three, two two seven
five eight one. That's correct, Okay, if you want to donate.
These are kids that are experiencing homelessness or they're in
foster care, and yet they still get up the morning
(23:00):
they go to school. They want a better life for themselves.
And I can't imagine how difficult that is. Every day
it's raining outside, you've slept all night in a car
or behind a building or in a tent, and you
got to get up and get to school before that
bell rings, and your mom and your dad whoever's with you,
(23:23):
they're embarrassed, they feel horrible, and it's just a very
bad situation. And Denise, I'm glad you're making this better
for everybody. So if anybody wants to donate to LAUSD
and help these boutiques, you know, fill them with clothes
and purses and shoes and whatever people whatever the kids
need dot please call two on three two O two seven,
(23:46):
five eight one, and if you can donate, that would
be great. I hope that you come back, and I
hope to have a long relationship as long as you're there.
Please any kind of fundraising you're doing or anything you
can always come in.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
That door is always open for you. Thank you so much,
really appreciate it. You are doing.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
More in a day than most people do in a
lifetime to help these kids. Thank you, you really are
and please come back. Well, okay, all right, Denise Miranda,
this is unbelievable. She is the director of the student
Support Program at LAUSD and they're helping these kids out.
And so again with the phone number two one three
two oh two seven five eight one, thank you again.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
At five o'clock tonight, the Dodgers takeover, we'll come back
and explain how that will happen and where we'll be
on the stream.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Mayo from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
We're gonna be stepping aside at five pm for the
Los Angeles Dodgers. They're gonna be back here on KFI.
So we're gonna be at five o'clock from five o'clock
until whenever Dodger talk is done, and last night, I
don't think it ended until about eleven o'clock. And so
if you put the math together, this is horrible news
(25:05):
for mo Kelly. Mo Kelly has put together an unbelievable
party upstairs, Halloween party, costumes, food, drinks, the whole run,
and he was going to do a three hour show
on the air with that big party. And now it's
going to be the Dodgers. What time have the games
kind of roughly been ending? Would you say eight? No,
(25:28):
I would thirty. I would say, yeah, eight thirty nine.
And then it's post game.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Yeah, I don't know if we're doing I don't know
if that's going to carry over here or not. That's
how I think that's because we're so occupied with taking
care of this part done.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Oh I see, I don't think.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
I don't even know that that's been a discussion yet
as far as post game being on. Ah, all right,
so it may be as soon as it's done, boot
switch over to Kelly live in progress upstairs at at
his party, okay.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
And then it'll be different though, depending on whether they
win or lose as well.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Yes, it's right, you know.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
So it's it's a uh, it's complicated, but it's there's
a lot of energy in this building.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
It is a lot of energy, a lot of first
time you and I are.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
An agreement because you said it earlier. It's like this
is the stuff I love.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, it's like you know, it's there's a lot of
people running around trying to figure out how to do this.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
I was talking, there's no plan for it.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I was talking to an APD assistant program director for KLAC,
Brian Blackmoren. He was saying, of course, the Dodgers will
absolutely win tonight, because that's just Murphy's law.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Right.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Yeah, I've been waiting all year, playing all the games
like KLAC, and they still will. But it's also going
to be MKA.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
But you know what's great for people if you're driving,
you know it's Wednesday night, if you're driving to Vegas
or to San Diego, San Francisco, whatever, you'll be able
to hear the Dodgers on KFI for as long as
you're driving because the station at night is so powerful.
So maybe five seventy am didn't come in in your area,
(26:58):
six forty will it will and that's going to be
a wild tonight. We've been getting some email on asking people.
People have been asking me please repeat the phone number
for the five boutiques that raise money and close for
the homeless kids and the kids experiencing foster care at LAUSD.
(27:18):
There are seventeen thousand kids in LAUSD that have some
type of homelessness, whether they're living in a motel, a hotel,
a car, a tent, on the back of a restaurant,
in an apartment with you know, nine people, and they
(27:38):
have five boutiques where the kids can go in and
get clothes for free and they can look great, they
can feel better about themselves. There are ten thousand kids
at LAUSD. Ten thousand. It would fill half of Staples
Up or Crypto up with kids in foster care, kids
that are no longer with their parents for whatever reason
(28:01):
and are experiencing foster care. And yet they still have
to get up every morning six six point thirty, get dressed,
get ready, take a bus, go to school, concentrate on school,
and come home to an unconventional lifestyle. And Denise Miranda
(28:24):
and her whole crew. I think she has three four
hundred people working with her. They've opened these five boutiques
where these kids can go in and looks like a
clothing store like The Gap or Miller's Outpost, and they
can pick up clothes for free and feel better about themselves.
I can't imagine anybody in LA doing better work than that,
(28:46):
more important work than that. I'd like the names of
those people, and I don't think there are a long
list of them. So the phone number if you want
to donate to LAUSD to help these kids out two one, three,
two two seven five eight one. It might be busy
because there are probably some people calling. But I uh,
but I went through LAUSD in a different time back
(29:08):
in the seventies, and it was it was a different,
different school system. Now now they have a lot more
challenges than they did back then, and so it's up
to us to help these kids out. All right, we're
gonna be again stepping aside for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
They're gonna be right here on kfive. We'll be on
the streams. You gotta download the app, the iHeartRadio app
(29:31):
and punching Kfi. We'll be on the KFI stream. The
Dodgers will be on the KFI airwaves, and it's gonna
be an interesting idea. We'll see how you know and
you want to tune in just to see if there's
how many you know, crazy, how crazy the transfer is
and how how you know wild the night goes. But
you canna be listening to the Dodger Radio network right
(29:55):
here on kfive. And I don't I think there's like
twenty or twenty five stations that carry the Dodgers, and
tonight KFI will be one of them. So we're gonna
step aside for the Dodgers at abround five oh six,
five oh seven, and then we'll be going right to stream,
So we'll be on stream if you want to listen
to that, or if you want to listen to Dodgers,
we encourage you to stay right here on KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
It's Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
Dodgers up next right here on KFI AM six forty.
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Now you can always
Speaker 1 (30:24):
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 KFI AM six forty and you're listening to The
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio apps. It is
the Conway Show, all right, dingdlling everybody. We have a
fairly unusual or I should say, very unusual set of
circumstances that have happened here at iHeart Medium and without
(00:23):
going into great detail because I don't know a lot
of the details yet, and some of the details that
I do know, I don't know what I can say
on the air, So all I can tell you is
at five oh eight pm or starting at five pm,
the Los Angeles Dodgers will be on KFI, and you'll
be listening to every single pitch instead of me, you know,
(00:43):
talking about I don't know the latest crime, how's the weather,
and then looking at the game the entire show. Now
you're gonna be listening to the Dodgers right here on KFI,
and it'll seem like old times. The Dodgers used to
be on KFI back in the sixties and seventies, Wasn't
that right, Croz, I think that word is new. Yeah,
(01:03):
So the Dodgers are coming home, which means I think
they're gonna win. All right, You know, because they're on KFI.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
They almost gonna have to now right.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Right, you're you're on the more powerful station. I'm not
saying the higher rated. Yeah maybe, okay, but there's they're
gonna be on the premiere talk station in in the country,
and they're gonna be on KFI at at five pm,
and and then we'll be on stream or something.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
We're we're working on the technical aspects of hopefully continuing
our show on the stream. It's it's all. We literally
have an hour to go to try to make this happen.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
I see.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
But but the game, the Dodger game will be on
AM five seventy on the iHeart app as well as
being heard on KFI, if on on the radio.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Is that right?
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Okay, all right, So we don't know where we're gonna
be at though, correct, okay, all right, So we might
be on the air, we might be off the air.
We are right now though, But if we're on streaming only,
there's no FCC rules, oh my god, you know, there's
just there's just in house standard and standards and practices.
We know how loose those are, you know. So I
(02:15):
don't know whether we're going to have traffic.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
Angel.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
I don't know what you'll be doing at five o'clock.
Maybe you'll be doing nothing, who.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Knows, maybe yea, who knows. But it's exciting, it's different.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And we don't know whether we're going to be on
We know that the Dodgers are going to be on
KFI starting at five pm.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
So spread the word.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
This might be your last opportunity to hear the Dodgers
on KFI. It may never happen again, may never happen again.
It's an unusual set of circumstances that made this happen today,
and it may never happen again. So on social media,
spread the word Dodgers Game five is going to be
(02:55):
right here on KFI.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
AM six forty now.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
And when I heard it, when I came in and
Bellio said, Hey, we're gonna be broadcasting the Dodger game,
I thought, for a split second, it's gonna be me
and Rick Monday calling the game.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
And I thought, man, I gotta get prepared for this.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
And you need to get over this to New York. No.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
I thought they I could do it from here.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Oh that would be so awesome, you know, because because
a lot of these games lights, football games. You know,
the guys don't go to the the different states and
broadcasts they broadcast here.
Speaker 3 (03:24):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
And and from your interview with him just a few
days ago, Monday loves you.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
So Rick and I back together doing games again. Well
I guess not again, but doing games right. But so
I thought, just for a split second and beat myself
and Rick Monday call the game.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Oh my god, I'd so listen week Oh my god,
bring that on. Man.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
I don't know if you watched last night's game, CROs,
but and when they went after Mookie Beds, I I'll
tell you they and I think the reason why Dodger
fans are pissed today it's not because New York fans
got out of contry. I think we've all but everybody's
been to a game has gotten out of control. At
some point you regret what you did the next day.
I give him a pass on that, except they don't
(04:06):
regret it. Yeah, maybe they don't. But I think a
lot of people that do you go and you drink,
and you say something or do something, you get thrown
I've been thrown out of arenas before. I was almost
thrown out of a King game a year ago with
my daughter, A year ago, one year ago to one
year ago.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I think today, I think it's this month a year ago.
What is wrong with you. We were going down the.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Escalator, you know, there's the escalator all the way from
the nosebleed down to the street level. Yeah, And I
was carrying a bag of Wetzels pretzels, and in one
hand I had napkins. The other hand I had a bag.
And I got on the escalator and I slipped a
little and I went to grab the railing and forty
(04:46):
napkins rained all over, all over everybody, down the ground security,
you know, a season seat holders, everybody. And when I
got down to the bottom, the guy says, you're picking
every one of those napkins up or you're auty. And
I said, I did it accidentally. He says, it doesn't
look like you did it accidentally. It looks like you
did it on purpose. I said, I'm here with my daughter.
Why would I do it on purpose. I got into
(05:07):
a little argument with him. I picked up every dampkin
so I could stay in the game, but man, I
almost got kicked out, and they would have thrown my
daughter out too.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Get out. You're with him out, get out.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
But I think we all took it personally last night
because it was Mookie bets If it was Will Smith,
if it was key A Hernandez, if it was I
don't know, I'm I you know whoever named you know,
the nine hundred guys on the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
If it was you know, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
If it was you know, Freddie Freeman, Munsey, any of
these guys, then I think it would have it would
have been different. But because it's Mookie Bets and I
think if it was Freddy Freeman and we had also
had the same reaction. Those are the two guys who
we consider family, and we think that those guys are family.
(05:57):
Those guys are you know, perfect human beings, the most
likable guys, the most charitable guys. And when you screw
around with Mookie Betsie Freddy Freeman, that means that you
screwed around with us.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
That's what got his pissed.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Yeah, Mookie's got a special thing going on with with La.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
And the fans.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
He does, and so does Freddy Freeman. And you screw
out either those two guys and people get crazy crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
But you know, you do it too.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I don't know, you know, any of the pictures or
you know, or Hansen or any of these guys you know,
coming out of the bullpen, like who cares?
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Who cares?
Speaker 1 (06:32):
But because it's Freddy, because Freddy Freeman or Mookie Bets,
that's where we draw the line. That's where we draw
the line.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
All right.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
So if you're just tuning in, there was a problem
here at our heart media, a problem that I think
they've solved. But the Los Angeles Dodgers will be broadcast
on AM five seventy l A Sports, but also on
KFI because we have a stronger signal here than they do.
They've been they've reduced power over or at five seventy am.
(07:01):
And I can't go into the details on why or
how it happened, or you know who did it or whatever,
but I can tell you in forty seven minutes, the
Los Angeles Dodgers will be back on KFI.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
This is not a joke, by the way, it's not.
It's it is for people to say, this is ball crap. No,
this is real.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
This is You'll find out how real it is in
forty seven minutes when we're not on the air and
the Dodgers are on the air, So the Dodgers KFI
to Night on KFI A six forty. Are we gonna
take a break. When we come back, We've got some
more Dodger news for you. We have an earthquake up
in Oregon. And then we have a very high official
(07:44):
upper echelon of l a U s D to talk
about a program that I was unaware of, but is
something unbelievable that LAUSD is doing.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
I was.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
I'm a product of LAUSD. I went to Concino Elementary,
Portolo Junior High and then birming, I'm high school and
so I went through l a U s D. I
know the ins and outs of l a U s D.
I know people at work there. I know teachers, I
know teacher assistants, I know the you know some of
the faculty. But one of the one of the the
people who run a very special program with LAUSD, is
(08:17):
going to be on with us in this hour, and
I urge you to listen to it because it's a really,
really big deal. She's doing unbelievable work with the kids
here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 4 (08:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
We are moving aside at five pm for the LA Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Now, if we I think we're going to be on
the stream on the KFI stream, we're not going to
broadcast the Dodger game on the stream myself. Krozier Angel
steffuj and Bellio all on the stream. We're trying starting
at five pm. That may or may not happen, but
you have to download the app. To get the stream,
you have to down the iHeartRadio app and then hit
(09:51):
the stream on fine Kfi hit the stream.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
You know.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I've had a rental car for about a week now. Yeah,
it's so special. Uh, but the rental car does not
have the HD radio. So I've been using the app
in my rental car, which I don't generally use the
app because of either I'm here or you know, I
have it in my car with the HD So it's
a totally different experience listening to the app in my car,
(10:15):
and so it's always a good thing just to have
in there, if for no other reason to that, you know,
if you got a rental car or something like that,
because not all rental cars have HD radios.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
As I found out, I'm old school the last two
nights and I have to listen to Rick Monday call
the game.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
I don't mind TV, but it's too neutral for me.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
I need homers, and even though they're not I consider
them my guys. So I drove out to Valencia. If
last two nights just to listen to the game on
the way out there. I don't care if I I'm
caught in traffic and I'm an old school idiot because
I'm listening at five seventy am and I pass power
polls and I got to speed up because I can't.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
It's interference.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
And if i'm I don't go into underpass is if
a play, like an important play is going on, And
then if I'm sitting in parking lot, I gotta find
the perfect place in the.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Parking lot where I get the signal. Old school, old school.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
That is a drawback with HD radio as well, because
you'll lose you'll lose a signal in it.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
With H I didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, it's it's very much like but because it's digital,
it doesn't get scratchy.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's just gone, oh, I see, okay, all right.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Anyway, So the Dodgers, the Los Angeles Dodgers playing the
Yankees on KFI tonight at five pm. I think we'll
be on the stream. I can't guarantee that, but that's.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
What it looks like.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Working off time, all right, working our asses off. The Dodgers.
They're going to play Game five two night on KFI.
All right, let's talk about Rob Gronkowski. He is in
college friends with the guy who interfered with the Mookie
Betts catch. Let's find out what his connection is to
(11:56):
this chap who got his ass thrown out of the
state and the Yankees said, no, we want him back,
and they offered him two free seats and Major League
Baseball said, he's not coming back. He knew the rules,
he knew the boundaries. Mahallow, you're not coming back. And
Major League Baseball said, no, he's not coming into the stadium.
(12:18):
You can watch outside if he likes, he's not coming in.
So let's find out what Rob Gronkowski used to play
with the with the Bostons. I played with the New
Patriots one year with Tampa too.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Oh that's right.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
Yeah, he went to Tampa as well. But he's got
a boatload of rings as well. And now he's on
I think he's on Fox on their pregame, post game
and halftime show on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
He's great. I love that dude.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Let's find out how what his connection is with the
guy who interfered with Mookie Betts.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
This is actually the first time I'm seeing this live
and here's a little fun fact. That guy right there
grabbing Mookie Bets's glove was my friend in college. He
was on the ice hockey team, the club Arizona Wildcats
team ice hockey team, and let me tell you, the
whole hockey team. Absolutely, they were absolute maniacs. They were
(13:08):
undescribable just how wild animals, yes, how wild these guys were.
Him doing that represents him very well. I mean, he
is all in for his teams. He is all in
for them.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
You gotta respect that as much as you hate him
doing it. The Mookie beds he's a real fan. He's
a real fan. He's got seasoned seats down there. He's
protecting his area. He's the king of that corner.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I have a little respect for that.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
But what I don't have respect for is anybody touching
Mookie Bets. That's our Mookie Bets for the Yankees.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
I remember him talking about the Yankees all the time,
how he loves him so much, and that describes him perfectly,
just doing whatever it takes to help his team out.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
But I can't believe that Rob Grenkowski's friends with this guy.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
The odds of that beauty.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
He is a beauty.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
I just want to say congratulations, graduation for shining when
your moment came.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
We're not talking any football. I need to recue the tape. Gronk,
you can call him a beauty?
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Is that?
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Will you tell me that you're telling me this is okay?
Speaker 5 (14:11):
No, I'm not saying that's something.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
Well, now I want you to tell me what you
think of what your friend did.
Speaker 5 (14:15):
No, No, I'm not. I mean I haven't talked to
him in a while.
Speaker 3 (14:18):
I mean walk it back. Yeah, yeah, I mean.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
If Gronk's calling you a maniac, that's about all you
need to know.
Speaker 3 (14:27):
They were fun, that's for sure.
Speaker 5 (14:29):
He's a fun dude.
Speaker 6 (14:30):
Uh, Gronk, this is this is unhinged behavior.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
It is unacceptable, definitely in the world of sports. But
when you're that big of a fan, that's what fans do.
I mean, whenever they have an opportunity to do that.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
And I read, uh, yeah, those are those are real.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Those are like raiders fans, you know, get dressed up
before the game and you got to respect that. And
I was wondering, does the guy put that face paint
on on the weight of the game. He drives the
game like that with the big shoulders and the big
big skeletons on his shoulders.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
I don't know, don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
He got it down to get in the door, yeah,
or does he do it at the in the parking lot.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
I don't know. It's odd odd.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
He got interviewed by ESPN. I read it this morning.
He said him and his friend talked about it every
single time they were at a Yankees game. What would
they do if that situation occurred? And he said they
would do it again, and that's what they would do.
They would stand up and protect the d That's what
we're attach the g That's what he said.
Speaker 6 (15:25):
It's they could have ripped Mookie's arm off.
Speaker 5 (15:28):
I think it's truly unacceptable. I mean that that active behavior,
but I mean.
Speaker 6 (15:33):
The fact that you know him, that must have been
Laith right next to him. I mean, I don't know
that guy's going to need a stand in or something.
They got kicked out, they're apparently they're allowed back in. Uh,
this is about the craziest thing I've ever seen. Of course,
of course you know.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
This guy, that is kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I think that they were that they were banned from
Game five, so maybe they're allowed on the ground somehow.
But I thought I had read that they were banned
from Game four.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
I heard that the Yankees won and back because they,
you know, weirdly consider them a good luck charm. And
then Major League Baseball when Major when the when the
World Series happens, major League Baseball takes over both stadiums
and they run the show. And Major League Baseball said, no, no, no,
that guy's not coming back. And I guess he was
a season pass hold, yeah, seat holder, Yeah, yeah, they
can go with.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
That guy, all right, come back.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
We'll talk about la USD, an unbelievable story and this
this woman, Denise Miranda. I can't believe what she does
for l a us D. I've never heard of this before,
but helps these kids out in a way that is unequaled,
never heard it before. And you'll you're gonna love this
story of and come back. The Dodgers will be on
(16:37):
KFI to night at five pm.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
That's not a joke.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
The Dodgers will be on KFI tonight the stronger signal.
We've had a problem with the other signal with the
AM five seventy l A Sports, So they're gonna be
on KFI tonight starting at five p m.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
KFI saves the day.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
That's right, ding dong.
Speaker 1 (16:57):
I wonder if we charge them for that, if there's
a money exchanging hands, and.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I wonder if you get paid. I don't know, I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Forty Big news here at KFI. The La Dodgers are
taking over at five pm. We're going to be leaving
the KFI studio and going onto streaming only. So download
the app and we'll be on stream only. KFI will
be on six forty AM over the airwaves and then
we'll be on stream. But the nice thing is there's
(17:32):
no FCC rules when it comes to streaming, so a
little more leeway tonight between five and seven pm. All right,
So Dodgers tonight five pm right here on KFI. That's
about a less than a half hour away. We have
a very special person here from LAUSD. Her name is
Denise Miranda. Welcome to KFI, nice to see you. Thank you.
(17:56):
You run the Homeless is It Outreach Program, Homeless Education Office.
And I read an article. I don't know where I
found this, but somebody sent me an article and I
couldn't believe this, and I went through LAUSD. I went
to Encino Elementary, Portol Junior High and then Birmingham High School,
(18:17):
and I felt like I was in a prison for
twelve years for a murder I didn't commit.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
But that's old LAUSD, that is old Lauas old school.
That's right.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
But the new LAUSD has some challenges, and you're so
beautiful to take care a lot of this. I didn't
realize that there's seventeen thousand students at LAUSD who are
experiencing homelessness.
Speaker 7 (18:38):
Yes, last year, over seventeen thousand families identified themselves as
experiencing God.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
You know, when I was growing up, my mom and
dad were always home, the electricity was never shut off.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
We always had something.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
To eat, and I found it tough to wake up
and go to school every day. I can't imagine if
you're homeless or experiencing somewhat, you know, some level of homelessess,
homeless and getting up to school and go to school
every day, right, I don't know how they do that right.
Speaker 7 (19:04):
And a lot of our students who are experiencing home
syts are also moving every night, and they also face
food insecurity. They suffer from trauma from whatever led their
family to that particular you know, housing situation.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
And so yeah, it's it's difficult. And then and another thing,
you told me this off the air. There are ten
thousand students who are in foster care. Yes, and they've
and they got to get up and you know, every
morning at six six thirty get themselves ready and go
to school.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
I don't know how they do it.
Speaker 7 (19:35):
Yeah, we have some amazing counselors and support staff obviously,
the leadership at the school sites, the teachers, the counselors,
the nurses, the bus drivers. It really is a team
effort to ensure that all of our students show up
every day.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
And then you're doing something I've never seen before, and
I don't know if it's happening in any other school
system in America, But you have five different boutiques that
have clothes and access series for kids who need it,
and you give them to them for free. They're all donations.
And you have five boutiques where a kid can come in,
no questions asked, I believe, and they can get clothes
(20:10):
and equipment and accessories for schools.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
Right.
Speaker 7 (20:14):
So we just had our grand opening. We have five
clothing boutiques for students experiencing homelessness. And we wanted to
ensure that our students came to school and clothing and
shoes actually is one of the barriers to attending school.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
So we were able to.
Speaker 7 (20:31):
Utilize our funding this last year and open five clothing boutiques.
Students come in and have a shopping experience. I'm a
bit of a shopaholic.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Good for you.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
My mom will tell you that. And so we wanted
to provide that opportunity to our students so they can
come in and get clothes all year. We have seasonal
clothing summer, winter, spring, and fall, as well as shoes, undergarments,
anything that they would need to feel comfortable.
Speaker 3 (20:56):
And who qualifies any student.
Speaker 7 (20:58):
Who has a current student housing questionnaire on file? They
have to have been identified as a student experiencing homelessness.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Okay? And you operate on grants and donations.
Speaker 7 (21:09):
We receive federal dollars and donations as well, okay.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
And and you must be relieved when those are okayed
and approved. Absolutely, If not, you've go out of business.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
Right, well, we always have. We always have partnerships and
donors self.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Oh good, Now do you accept monetary donations.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
We do. We accept monetary donations and new or even
gently used clothes. Obviously we prefer new clothes, but sure
if they're gently used, we would definitely have our students
partaken in those donations.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
And those kids must feel like a million bucks to
come in there and get all new clothes. It makes
their it makes go because I know kids are very
sensitive about going to school and looking and fitting in
and looking good at that age, right.
Speaker 7 (21:51):
The purpose really was to make sure that students feel
good about themselves, have the ability to have clothes that
are new, clean, and appropriate for whatever age group we're serving.
And we provide services for students in Universal Transition kindergarten all.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
The way through twelfth grade.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Okay, And there's five different boutiques, yes, and what are
they open during the day weekends?
Speaker 7 (22:14):
They're open during the day. So families, if they're in
need of clothing for their students, they can connect with
any of our counselors as are part of our our
department rather students support programs, and a referral can be
made and students can go with their counselors to shop
or counselors can do. We have a drive up where
counselors can place the order, drive up to the boutique
(22:36):
and receive the clothing.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
So that is so few options, all right.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
So can I give the phone number out if people
want to donate? Yes, please, Okay, let make sure I
have it right here. Two one three, two two seven
five eight one. That's correct, Okay, if you want to donate.
These are kids that are experiencing homelessness or they're in
foster care, and yet they still get up the morning
(23:00):
they go to school. They want a better life for themselves.
And I can't imagine how difficult that is. Every day
it's raining outside, you've slept all night in a car
or behind a building or in a tent, and you
got to get up and get to school before that
bell rings, and your mom and your dad whoever's with you,
(23:23):
they're embarrassed, they feel horrible, and it's just a very
bad situation. And Denise, I'm glad you're making this better
for everybody. So if anybody wants to donate to LAUSD
and help these boutiques, you know, fill them with clothes
and purses and shoes and whatever people whatever the kids
need dot please call two on three two O two seven,
(23:46):
five eight one, and if you can donate, that would
be great. I hope that you come back, and I
hope to have a long relationship as long as you're there.
Please any kind of fundraising you're doing or anything you
can always come in.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
That door is always open for you. Thank you so much,
really appreciate it. You are doing.
Speaker 1 (24:03):
More in a day than most people do in a
lifetime to help these kids. Thank you, you really are
and please come back. Well, okay, all right, Denise Miranda,
this is unbelievable. She is the director of the student
Support Program at LAUSD and they're helping these kids out.
And so again with the phone number two one three
two oh two seven five eight one, thank you again.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
At five o'clock tonight, the Dodgers takeover, we'll come back
and explain how that will happen and where we'll be
on the stream.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Mayo from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
We're gonna be stepping aside at five pm for the
Los Angeles Dodgers. They're gonna be back here on KFI.
So we're gonna be at five o'clock from five o'clock
until whenever Dodger talk is done, and last night, I
don't think it ended until about eleven o'clock. And so
if you put the math together, this is horrible news
(25:05):
for mo Kelly. Mo Kelly has put together an unbelievable
party upstairs, Halloween party, costumes, food, drinks, the whole run,
and he was going to do a three hour show
on the air with that big party. And now it's
going to be the Dodgers. What time have the games
kind of roughly been ending? Would you say eight? No,
(25:28):
I would thirty. I would say, yeah, eight thirty nine.
And then it's post game.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Yeah, I don't know if we're doing I don't know
if that's going to carry over here or not. That's
how I think that's because we're so occupied with taking
care of this part done.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Oh I see, I don't think.
Speaker 2 (25:42):
I don't even know that that's been a discussion yet
as far as post game being on. Ah, all right,
so it may be as soon as it's done, boot
switch over to Kelly live in progress upstairs at at
his party, okay.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
And then it'll be different though, depending on whether they
win or lose as well.
Speaker 3 (25:55):
Yes, it's right, you know.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
So it's it's a uh, it's complicated, but it's there's
a lot of energy in this building.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
It is a lot of energy, a lot of first
time you and I are.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
An agreement because you said it earlier. It's like this
is the stuff I love.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, it's like you know, it's there's a lot of
people running around trying to figure out how to do this.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
I was talking, there's no plan for it.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
I was talking to an APD assistant program director for KLAC,
Brian Blackmoren. He was saying, of course, the Dodgers will
absolutely win tonight, because that's just Murphy's law.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Right.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Yeah, I've been waiting all year, playing all the games
like KLAC, and they still will. But it's also going
to be MKA.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
That's right.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
But you know what's great for people if you're driving,
you know it's Wednesday night, if you're driving to Vegas
or to San Diego, San Francisco, whatever, you'll be able
to hear the Dodgers on KFI for as long as
you're driving because the station at night is so powerful.
So maybe five seventy am didn't come in in your area,
(26:58):
six forty will it will and that's going to be
a wild tonight. We've been getting some email on asking people.
People have been asking me please repeat the phone number
for the five boutiques that raise money and close for
the homeless kids and the kids experiencing foster care at LAUSD.
(27:18):
There are seventeen thousand kids in LAUSD that have some
type of homelessness, whether they're living in a motel, a hotel,
a car, a tent, on the back of a restaurant,
in an apartment with you know, nine people, and they
(27:38):
have five boutiques where the kids can go in and
get clothes for free and they can look great, they
can feel better about themselves. There are ten thousand kids
at LAUSD. Ten thousand. It would fill half of Staples
Up or Crypto up with kids in foster care, kids
that are no longer with their parents for whatever reason
(28:01):
and are experiencing foster care. And yet they still have
to get up every morning six six point thirty, get dressed,
get ready, take a bus, go to school, concentrate on school,
and come home to an unconventional lifestyle. And Denise Miranda
(28:24):
and her whole crew. I think she has three four
hundred people working with her. They've opened these five boutiques
where these kids can go in and looks like a
clothing store like The Gap or Miller's Outpost, and they
can pick up clothes for free and feel better about themselves.
I can't imagine anybody in LA doing better work than that,
(28:46):
more important work than that. I'd like the names of
those people, and I don't think there are a long
list of them. So the phone number if you want
to donate to LAUSD to help these kids out two one, three,
two two seven five eight one. It might be busy
because there are probably some people calling. But I uh,
but I went through LAUSD in a different time back
(29:08):
in the seventies, and it was it was a different,
different school system. Now now they have a lot more
challenges than they did back then, and so it's up
to us to help these kids out. All right, we're
gonna be again stepping aside for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
They're gonna be right here on kfive. We'll be on
the streams. You gotta download the app, the iHeartRadio app
(29:31):
and punching Kfi. We'll be on the KFI stream. The
Dodgers will be on the KFI airwaves, and it's gonna
be an interesting idea. We'll see how you know and
you want to tune in just to see if there's
how many you know, crazy, how crazy the transfer is
and how how you know wild the night goes. But
you canna be listening to the Dodger Radio network right
(29:55):
here on kfive. And I don't I think there's like
twenty or twenty five stations that carry the Dodgers, and
tonight KFI will be one of them. So we're gonna
step aside for the Dodgers at abround five oh six,
five oh seven, and then we'll be going right to stream,
So we'll be on stream if you want to listen
to that, or if you want to listen to Dodgers,
we encourage you to stay right here on KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
