That's what we needed. Yeah, the energy was to get
the attention of the crew. So I get there at
around three fifteen or so and the place is packed,
but it's packed with just locals, and so I'm like, oh,
I hope other there's room enough for people to come in.
Who are you know coming down to see the program.
So I'm walking around and it's not locals. Everybody at
(01:04):

to see us. That's huge. It was huge. It was
great nice. So I was in the bathroom. I, you know,

bus boys in there and he said, uh, hey, he

He was standing right next to me. So you got

very nice kid, and he said, uh. He says hey,
he says, you know, they we had to bring another
bus boy. And we usually not crowded like on a Thursday.
(02:09):
We never have this kind of crowd. Bellio, that's my
guy who has nothing again, nothing to lose. He's just
he's spitting honesty as the kids says truth, that's right,
that's right. So I and he said, I said, hey,
how long is the wait? And he said, it's an
hour and a half to get a table. And so
I was talking to one of the ladies who works
(02:30):
there at Bjay's, and they said that that never happens.
An hour and a half way to get a table
on a Thursday afternoon. Tim Conway, no, no, it was me.
It was you, not steph Uge Crozer. I'm angel. Of course,
Steve Gregory, chip Yost was there, Tim Lynn, Fritz Coleman,
(02:54):
Ted Zigenbusch, Mala boudin me sock. I mentioned Steve Gregory.
David Clint, a buddy of mine, was there with his
lovely wife Lulu, and on and on and on. Of course,
Krozier and Dana and Dave Weese and the whole bunch
were down there, plus oh, Nate Geo and Chris say
(03:15):
hi to.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
They were the team that put everything together. In Huntington Beach,
a chief of police, Eric Parks, that's.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Right, that guy's great man. Great. So during one of
the during one of the breaks, the guy comes up
to me and he's in a security outfit and he goes, hey,
you guys remember me? And I said, I need a
little more. You know, run into a lot of security
guys in my life, you know, tell me what to do,
what not to do, kicking me out of places, you know,
(03:42):
changing my behavior. Don't do that. Yeah right, I mean
I'm heavy, but they don't do that. Crowd or I
used to be. Not me Moore, I'm too old for that,
but before. I mean, I've had run ins, you know,
with these guys. Yeah. So he said, you don't remember me.
I said, I got to give me more than that.
And I said, you know, I'm sure, all right, I will.
He said, you remember about three or four years ago
(04:03):
when your car got broken? He's like, oh, yeah, okay,
you're the guy. You're the guy. Okay, So what happened.
I parked my car down there in one of those
undercar underground garages after the parade. It was the fourth
of July parade, and I come back and my car
window was broken and there's glass everywhere. And so I
said to that security guy, that guy worked there, and
(04:23):
he came over to say hi, which was very nice
of him. And Phil is his name, Phil the security guard,
And don't know much more than that. Don't know his
last name, where he lives, married, kids, nothing, nothing, So
I can't offer you much more. So he comes over,
says hi, and he says, I remember the window was
probably I say, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I do
remember that. What happened was I would park my car
(04:46):
down there, the SUV, the Lincoln right when I drive. Yeah,
it'll be nineteen years old in four short months. So
I am parked down there. I come back from the parade,
I get a ride. All the way back from the parade.
It's still a lot of people around, and my window's
broken in the navigator, completely shattered glass everywhere. So he
(05:07):
was a security guard there, and I was going to
call the cops, but I wanted to start with security
guy and see, you know, because there's a lot of
cops that I could probably drag one off the street
and go, hey, my car is broken into. So he said,
he said, oh, he goes there was a there was
another car broken into in this same area last night.
I'm like, oh, that's wild man, some guys you know,
(05:28):
still here doing it. Yeah, And then he looks at
my car and he says, I've never seen such a
clean break there's no glass there, and it's such a
clean break. There's there's not like ten like an inch
of the bottom of broken glass, cleaned it all off.
He must have just put you know, when when jumping
in there to see if there's anything to steal it,
which is not, you know, pulling at his body out whatever,
(05:49):
all the glass came out. I don't know. So he said,
can I roll your window up to see where the
glass level is? How deep it is in the window.
I said, yeah, sure, So he starts the car up,
he puts he presses the button to put the window up,
window goes up. I forgot, I forgot the no, I forgot,
(06:12):
I forgot to close it. And that glass was from
last night when somebody else's car was broken in, So
no wonder I didn't want to see him. You know,
it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
It's nice of him to remind you of that story.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
And it comes on because remember me, I do know,
I do now, But how about this. He saved me
from hunting embarras cop showing up like you know, three
or four cops showing up dusting for princes and then
the windows up.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I would have loved to have seen your expression when
you saw that, like, oh.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
I was like, oh that's great man, I can get
out of here. But I couldn't believe it, man. And
he walked away going laughing his ass off. Yeah, stupid man. Yeah,
I ran into I ran into a stupid man. I'm like, hey, Phil,
I'm going a live show down here. You got the
(07:08):
security of you so went down even Stephens. But that
was great, man, it was a great night. It was great.

see them much. And she woked the most the greatest
lineup ever. Oh you are welcome, and I'm like, yeah,

really knows her guess. I'm like, yep, she does. Great.

Speaker 2 (07:52):

All right, Robert didging gong with you. All Right, we'llcome back.
We got a lot of news to break, a lot
of news going on today, and we're going to cover
it all. I guess right here on.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Cafines you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Forty lots happening. Yeah, we got to thank everybody for
coming down to Huntington Beach last night or yesterday. That
was quite a party, man, that was great. And then
I went to Seal Beach to with my wife. My
wife came down with me, and we drove by the
place where we lived, and we went to our favorite restaurant,
one of our restaurants there that charo chicken that they
(09:35):
don't have up here, that they should have up here
in La but they don't, I don't think. And just
sat there in the marina and ate chicken and rice
and beans like to homeless people. So quite a night romantic.
All right, let's talk about Big Lots. I know Bellio
is a big fan of Big Lots. I think Angel goes.
(09:56):
I know my wife goes there all the time and
she feels no shame in walking into that store. Angel,
do you ever get you to you go to Big Lots? Yeah?
I love it. You feel dirty going in there or
coming out?
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Well, I put on like some dark glasses and on
a baseball cap, you know, and I.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
But you do feel filthy, you know, because you're going
into basically, uh, you know, yard sale or you know,
a guy's hoarding, like a hoarders. It should be called
hoarder's warehouse. Hoarders warehouse.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Our aisles are clear, but everything else is just dirty.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Everything sucks. Warehouse. We're actually going to get there hoarders warehouse,
all right, And nobody wants to sell anything, Like, oh,
you can't to sell that? What do you do here?
Speaker 6 (10:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
We want to keep that.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
We was from a relative.
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Like what Big Lots is closing more than fifty of
its one hundred and nine stores.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Oh no, fifty, Almost half its stores are closed, and
it sounds likely Michaelson is a mourning.
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Big Lots is closing more than fifty of its one
hundred and nine stores across California amid sagging sales. And
this could be just the beginning.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
What just the beginning.
Speaker 7 (11:13):
Across California amid sagging sales, and this could be just
the beginning.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Oh, no, bad news for Big Lots, Big Lots, no good.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
The company reported a loss of two hundred five million.
What the company reported a loss of two hundred five million?
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Wait, there's two hundred and five million dollars worth of
stuff in those stores? Is that possible?
Speaker 7 (11:33):
The company reported a loss of two hundred five million
in the quarter ending May fourth. The same loss was
posted the year before.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
And I think if you would take all this stuff
in all one hundred and nine big Lots and I
appraise it, I don't think you could get to two
hundred million.
Speaker 8 (11:48):
I mean, they do sell furniture, so that might add up. No, buddy,
have you seen it. I've bought some of it.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
You've purchased furniture at Big Lots. It's good, it's good stuff.
Does it fall a part of the way home? Do
you still haven't some of the stuff?
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (12:03):
What do you have it at outdoor fronte?
Speaker 8 (12:05):
Well, like a like a double pantry, so for food
and stuff, so it doesn't really get a whole lot
of wear and tear.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I guess, Wow, what did that cost you? Eight dollars?
Speaker 8 (12:12):
So it was on Clarence. Jesus kind of for a
hundred bucks. Sorry, I don't mean to use that term,
but I was shocked.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I was shocked. How much was it? It was one
hundred bucks, one hundred dollars on Clarence. Wait minute, it
was fifty there's one hundred dollars item on Clarence at
Big Lots. Yeah, well it was a it was a
wooden pantry. Yeah, but how they going out of business then?
I mean, you know, guys are a haul of Amazon,
you know, cabinets out of there. That is wild, buddy. Hey,
I got to apologize to Andrew Caravella. Did you see
(12:43):
what's going on here? Did Bealio show you with what
with the photo?
Speaker 4 (12:48):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
No, okay, you gave Sharon Bellio a photo and you said,
and I said to Bellio, I said, who's it? Four?
Speaker 8 (12:58):
Oh yes, yes, okay, and she's and Andrew. Oh no,
so Bellia just gave it to him. Yeah, and it
says what did it say? It says Andrew, nice working
with you. And then you autographed it. But it's not
for me.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
But but she said it was for Andrew, and I
thought it was odd, so I signed it to you anyway.
I love that. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (13:20):
No, there's a there's a friend of the family and
I guess he's a major Tim Conway fan and his
birthday's coming up.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
His name Andrew. It is not Andrew. Otherwise that I
gonna do it again. We're gonna have to do it again.
But you know what, I am going to stick in
from my office. No, I'm keeping this. Can you just
cross out all that crap on the bottom and put
his name on it? Doesn't have to do any more work.
That's great.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
This is a problem I have with with Conway. He
only hears the first three words of every sentence or paragraph.
I say it again, heard, he moved it.
Speaker 8 (13:55):
We're working with Tim for three years and he autographs
a headshot for me.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
I love it. Thanks. No, See that story makes me
seem like a huge a hole that I would think
that the guy work working with Munce Biologram. I'm gonna
post this a social later for sure. I even gave
you a ding dog.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
I know.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
I feel special now. That's awesome, Like like I was
introduced to a guy who works up at Kiss FM,
and I'm gonna get in trouble for this, but I'm
gonna say it anyway. I don't give a Rad says,
but there's a guy who works upstairs. I don't know
if he still works here. Does Jesse the the the
boy Toy still work upstairs? I think, oh, he's not.
(14:38):
He's not. I don't think I feel more comfortable telling
the story now. When I first started here, I was
he was. He introduced himself to me. I said, I'm Conway,
work at KFIN and he goes, oh, I'm Jesse the
boy Toy and I work at Kiss FM. Like okay
with the whole boy toy? Did you autograph something for him? No,
(14:58):
just you know, when you work with a guy, I thought,
maybe lose the the boy. Well, I mean it's hip
for music, you know, I get it. I mean I don't.
I don't say to people you know, hey, dig do well,
maybe I do. All right, you've switched you to call
(15:22):
him out on that. I'm sorry it. I just realized
halfway through that story, I'm a hypocrite. All right, So Andrew,
enjoy that photo. You gave me a headshot and said
please fill it out and said who's it for? She
said Andrew? And then the door closed. I said, this
guy is not I'll just sign it with the hell
and I and there you go. So enjoy that, all right,
(15:44):
But tell me who the other guy is and I'll
put that. You know, all right, we'll do maybe next
I sign on Friday, so if you don't have it today,
I'll have to wait till next week. That's okay, all right.
I know I sound like a huge a hole, and
I think I am sort of I'm turning into one,
which I like. I like. I like that it was
a nice guy in my whole life. I think I'm
turning to aha like that a little more.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Alex Michaelson's all over the place. He's friends with the
Vice President's husband. He does he anchors the the Fox
kt TV news I don't know, five six and something
ten or whatever, and then he also does The Issue
Is And now he's the co host of TMZ. Got
a brand new job, and and he won an Emmy
(16:33):
got him mighty What a busy man.
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Oh well, I'm not the new host of TMZ. I'm
filling in on TMZ live for two days. So it
was a two day gig. Which I didn't know that,
which is actually which is actually airing right now as well,
which is kind of wild. And I guess we're giving
up the fact that a TMD Live isn't actually I'm
talking to you. And also busy tonight. I'm going to
(16:57):
be on tonight as well on Fox News Channel. My
buddy Bill Illusion is anchoring tonight from the La Duro,
so I'll be on with him at the guests in
the eight pm hour, because why not do another job?
So I don't yeah, do you ever? Day? But the best,
the best thing of all, of course is the hit
with Conway. This is my favorite part of the week.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I know you don't believe that. Hey, when when you
are offered a job, do you? Do you ever? Say no?
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Very rarely? Okay, I think I need to address this
more with my therapist.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Yeah, I'm going to get you a book from Amazon
I read years ago. It's How to Say No and
Not Feel guilty.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Okay, Yeah, that's a great book.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
It's a great book.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
All this stuff is good, though. I feel blessed today.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Can I play you something and ask you a question?
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Oh? This never goes well, but let's do it all
right here?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
We go here. I'm just gonna play this for you here.
Speaker 7 (17:45):
Big Lots is closing more than fifty of its one
hundred and nine stores across Keller.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Are you sound depressed out of your mind? That is
closing down? Here's the question, though, and and please answer
me honestly because I'll find out and you know, and
the lie is also is always worst. The cover up
is always worse than the line.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Have I ever shopped at Big Lots before?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Is that your two questions? Have you ever shopped at
Big Lots?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Have you ever had? You know where your your closest
Big Lots is?
Speaker 3 (18:13):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I'm not man honestly, Yes, great buddy, I love.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
You, buddy.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
I'm surprised that you challenge me on that because I
could drive you right now to my Big Lots. I
go to the one off off if you go on Magnolia,
you turn right on right before Lankashim and it's right there.
We're in in the NoHo Air North Hollywood area, near
that Ralphs on Magnolia. My wife goes there all the time.
(18:43):
She loves Big Lots. I don't like to go there
because I feel like it's it's a hoarder's warehouse, you
know what I mean, Like that's where hoarders go to shop.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Yeah, well, I mean they need big lots, I guess.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
But wouldn't they do better if they if they just
you know, hung a light on it and we're honest
with people like you are and just said, hey, welcome
to hoarder's warehouse.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Yes, that would maybe. Yeah, it seems to be a
big hoarders demographic in LA And also the city doesn't
really do anything about it, so why not just lean
into it? But you should make that one of our
Chamber of Commerce things.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
I'm glad you brought this up because I've lived in Cleveland,
I've lived in Toronto, I've lived in Orange County, I've
lived in you know, five six seven places. In my life,
I have never seen so many hoarders as I do
here in LA.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
It is disgusting, isn't it? And it's fine for the
neighbors that that call, some of them called for years,
try to do something about it. There next to these
places that smell bad, that are public safety threats, and
nothing is done until oftentimes we bring out the cameras
and then something is done, like in one day after
(19:58):
something wasn't done like three or four years, and when
they get on it, they can do it so fast.
They can bring the people in and have it all
done in like half the day. It's amazing how quickly
things happen. They're like, well, the mayor said, comes clean
it up. It's like, I bet she takes the driver
around the city. There's plenty of other things.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
But I also I've noticed this, speaking of, you know,
people with their crap. I have never again I've lived
in seven or eight different cities, I have never seen
so many people move their own crap on weekends on
the freeways in Los Angeles. And I always try when
I see the U haul or a pickup truck full
of crap and it's got a couple of straps on it,
(20:36):
to try to keep the chair in the bed in,
you know, in the truck before it blows out. I'm
always thinking, is this a move up or a move down?
I always try to figure out where the guy's going
in life.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Yeah, maybe to move up you hire the movers. That's right,
it might be moved down unfortunately, right.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
And I always if somebody's doing around the middle of
the month, like the fifteenth or so that's a move down.
That's a guy who's been thrown out because you move
at the you know, first or the thirtieth, not the fifteenth.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah, and you know, sometimes it's the husband that's getting
to move out, which is not good either.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah. A single man driving a truck full of stuff.
He's moving, he's moving on to his new life.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, you know, you know things didn't work out for.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Him, that's right. Yeah, and you know what for him?
And if you look in the cab and he's driving
his own crap, he's always smiling always. But what's on
that big show night? I know if there's politics still
going on?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Height, there is politics going on, you know Frank Lunch
the long Shore. Yeah, the strategists been on TV for
thirty years, does all the focus group stuff. He has
one of the most incredible homes you've ever seen. He's
got he's got a bull, he's got an Oval office,
an actual replica of the Oval office, and the Lincoln
(21:55):
bedroom and the White House bowling alley and a pool
table that you let's as Grant used, and all this
incredible memorabilia, all the biggest newspapers and magazines. It is
like a museum. So we do the show from his
house tonight. Oh wow, taking you through it, touring this
from our set is the Oval office and we try
(22:18):
out this stuff. I go in the bowling alley and
bowl I mean, it's the whole thing, and it's really amazing.
And you know, what a week to talk about politics
with everything going on between Harris and Trump and the
VP service this weekend and there's just a lot going on.
I mean, the VP interviews are happening now and are going
to be happening over the next few days. The announcement's
coming out on Monday.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Frank Lunch was nice enough to have LAPD. He opened
up his house to LAPD to have their Christmas party
there and I went with with well now the assistant chief,
Alan Hamilton, and sat at his table. I thought that
was really cool. One of the highlights of my life.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Yeah, he does a lot of fundraisers that's really charitable
with that which is isn't an amazing property?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
I mean never like it, right, Yeah, and outside is
even more spectacular than inside. It's it's great, it's it's
it's it's like the most unique. It's like if Penn
and Teller were to own a home. That's what it
would look like.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Yeah, and speaking of a Burbank, he's got the big Boy,
the original big Boy from Bob's Big Boy. I don't know,
I don't know how he got it. He's got all
this stuff.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I mean, it's like it was stolen like eight years ago.
Maybe he stolen who knows.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
We just figured that out. We just figured that out.
Maybe you just doubted it on the conway then.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Yeah, like tonight when the l a p. D Comes
buying the rest and we'd be like, oh, man, I
guess I should have said anything with the home.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Yeah, maybe I shouldn't have done that giant fundraiser for
you at my house.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
That's why he did it. You know. The guys are
always closest to the cops are always the guys that are,
you know, committing the most crimes.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
That was the premise of Breaking Bad.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
I mean, that's there's a lot of that.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
But I really appreciate you coming on and we'll talk
to you next week. I love all the success you're having, buddy.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh, thank you so much. A big part of it
is because of you. Thank you. That's not true, and
it's really it really is. My favorite part of the week.
It's talking.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
I love the fact that I love the fact you've
never been to a Big Lots and you have no
idea where they are. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Isn't it better that I'd be honest?
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It's great because you're so you're in mourning and your
voice is like, you know, like six kids just got
wiped out in a car accient.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
Big Lots is closing more than fifty of its one
hundred and nine stores.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Look, you feel for the employees, buddy, that nobody deserves
to lose their job. That's sad.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Look, there's always a bad angled every story, but Big
Lots going out of business. They said they had two
hundred here's the number at the end. Listen to this
number here at the end. I know you did this,
two hundred and five million. Two under. They lost two
hundred five million. I we said earlier. I think I did.
If you had all hundred and nine stores and added
up all the crap and there, how do you get
to two hundred million. I don't think you can't. Yeah,
(25:03):
thanks for calling in, and we'll speak with you next week.
John dig DeLong with you, buddy, all right? There he
goes Alex Michaels saying that guy's classic never been to
a big lots and has no idea where they are.
That is a great life. I wish I had that
life where I didn't have, you know, people my family
(25:25):
sniffing around big lots. I wish I was like that
kind of guy. I had that kind of do where
I didn't know where big lots was, but I do.
I've been to big lots. THO was there three months ago,
you know, rummaging, threw on my hands and knees and
for crap, Yeah whatever, all right, big lots, no good,
no good, the rummage warehouse or hoarder's warehouse. Going on business.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun you're on demand from KF
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
All right, we continue Your valley homes are continuing to
be broken into. No stop in sight. They got the
cops out there on horses. They're riding around, riding around.
That's what they do. They ride around and they can't
stop this. They just can't stop.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
It.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Happened again last night, happens almost every night in Sino
Sherman Oaks, Tarzana Studio City. They're coming, They're coming, for
your stuff because you got money and poor people don't.
And the poor people are tired of being broke, and
they find it easy to break into your house and
(26:31):
take your crap from you rather than working twenty years
or thirty years and may not even get there. So
they're coming in to take your stuff. They're broke, you're not.
They're coming in for your crap.
Speaker 9 (26:44):
Another busy night for burglars and police who are trying
to catch them.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Take a look.
Speaker 9 (26:49):
The story starts here in Incino.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Oh, in Sino again in Sino, which I think it
means oak tree. Does that mean? Is that true? I
don't know if that's true or not. In Sina means
oak tree, and in Spanish or Native American, I don't know,
but there's a connection there. Look it up.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
At around six ten pm, that's when a couple leaves
their home. This is near Linley, just south of Ventura.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Boulevard too s all right, Linley south of Ventura Boulevard
East to live over there on a street Enfield. I
lived on Enfield and Valley Vista for a while. We
rented a house and this pretty cool house. I like
living there a couple of years. Thing dog, the Ventura Boulevard.
Speaker 5 (27:30):
You're right about in see now. Oh it is a
Spanish yeah, Spanish for oak.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Okay, all right, learn a little something thing. Dog with you.
Angel Martinez always on top of everything. She knows everything.
Speaker 9 (27:41):
Man the Ventura Boulevard to go run some errands.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Okay, they're leaving Lindley and Ventura going off to run
some errands. Maybe they're going to the Surprise Store or
Mosca tells or I don't know, it's still in that area.
The movies of Tarzana Famous Amos poppin Tacot. What's in
that area? La Fiesta Builders Emporium. I don't know if
(28:07):
any of those stores are still there, but that's that
was in the area. What none of that craps there anymore?
Speaker 3 (28:14):
No? Sorry.
Speaker 9 (28:15):
When they return around eight o'clock, they found their rear
glass lighting door shattered and their home ransacked. The burglars
getting away with jewelry, purses and other items.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
You got to hide the jewelry, Hide those purses, ma'am.
Speaker 9 (28:28):
At eleven PM, it appears a whole other gang of
burglars were busy in Brentwood, where a couple arrived home
from dinner to find their front door wide open and
all the lights on inside it.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
After police cleared the house, the family found a large
safe that had been bolted down to the ground on
the second floor.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Was gone. The man, I don't know. I think these
are all inside jobs. I think it might be you know,
it might be somebody who's like working at the house,
or a friend or you know, tells somebody, Hey, there's
a big safe in this house in Brentwood, and then
like a year later, somebody comes in and grabs all
your crap. That's probably why nobody's ever broken into our house,
(29:09):
because people come into our house and work in our
house and like, wow, this guy broke Nothing going on
in here, nothing happening in here. And that's that's That's
how you get relief from burglars is you you put
all your money into Santa Nita and you get no
jewelry or big purses or any of that crap, and
(29:29):
they don't break in. So if you want to prevent
your house, you don't have to buy an alarm. You
just have to spend all of your money on horse
racing and uh, you'll be good to go.
Speaker 9 (29:41):
Was gone. The burglars apparently dragging it downstairs.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Hey, look, someone's gonna spend your money. Might as well
be you before they come in and take it. Ill
go to Vegas with it, go to Marongo, go to
the racetrack and spend it yourself before they come take it,
because they're coming to take it. They're coming to take it.
Speaker 9 (29:58):
Was gone the burglar, apparently dragging it downstairs, leaving behind
a trail of damage and into a waiting truck.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah. So when they drag that heavy safe down the stairs,
and you know they're gonna be banging into walls and
banging into banisters and the whole run because they want
to get the hell out of there before the cops
show up and shoot them.
Speaker 9 (30:18):
Speaking off camera, the owners say they're scared now and
don't feel safe in a neighborhood that was supposed to
be safe.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
That's right, that's what you get, right, that's what you get. Unfortunately,
in today's society, when there's no punishment for a lot
of these guys, it continues. You know, I mean, everybody
voted for gas gom Let's change the rules. Anything under
nine point fifty is a misdemeanor. Put a guy in
(30:46):
who's not that high on keeping people in jail, and
here's what you get.
Speaker 9 (30:51):
Half an hour later, the valley burglars appear to have
hit again, this time in Sherman Oaks.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
We're back to Sherman Oaks, all right, back to the valley.
The guys have come back back home, as we call it.
Speaker 9 (31:02):
Most likely this crew connected to a string of burglaries
that have hit the valley hard. This home not far
from Vanuy's Boulevard in the one oh one freeway. Here
at least two mast men smash their way into a
home where they were quickly confronted by the homeowner.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Oh here we go, homeowner's home. Maybe he's got a gun.
Speaker 9 (31:20):
They ran out empty handed, you know, even speaking.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Wow wild West out here in the valley.
Speaker 9 (31:25):
Now, we've been speaking this morning to neighbors who live
here in the valley, and they tell us they're worried,
really worried.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Yeah they should be. We are scared.
Speaker 6 (31:34):
Actually, well, oh, our neighborhood, it's like it s used
to be. Not even close the doors me. Personal are
even afraid to go to backyard without somebody's coming with me.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, I get that. People are afraid to even go in
the backyards. They know what's out there.
Speaker 9 (31:49):
And Larissa herself was held up at gunpoint during a
break in into her Tarzana home just two years ago.
Police telling us they've increased patrols in the area is
being targeted, but so far that hasn't seemed to deter
these burglars. Reporting live, I'm Gigi Grassiat.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Ggi Grassiac. Great job, little buddy. I'm telling you you
can't be anti gun. You've got to have a gun
and protect yourself from this mayhem.
Speaker 5 (32:18):
Hey, timmy, ma'am, do you think that any of these
homeowners thought somebody tried to break in and just realized
they left the windows open?
Speaker 1 (32:29):
A How dare you? I Am going to key your
car and I might steal your safe and your purses
and your jewelry. How about that? I know where you
live though. All right, We're live on KFI AM six

Speaker 2 (00:36):
Two flights of the Margherita Samplers that's right, that's right,
increased his volumegah, which was great.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
That's what we needed. Yeah, the energy was to get
the attention of the crew. So I get there at
around three fifteen or so and the place is packed,
but it's packed with just locals, and so I'm like, oh,
I hope other there's room enough for people to come in.
Who are you know coming down to see the program.
So I'm walking around and it's not locals. Everybody at
(01:04):
the bar and everybody in the restaurant was came down

I don't do that. I'm appreciated. I don't go to
a friend's house. I don't go to restaurants. I don't

We never have this kind of crowd. Bellio, that's my
guy who has nothing again, nothing to lose. He's just
he's spitting honesty as the kids says truth, that's right,
that's right. So I and he said, I said, hey,
how long is the wait? And he said, it's an
hour and a half to get a table. And so
I was talking to one of the ladies who works
(02:30):
there at Bjay's, and they said that that never happens.
An hour and a half way to get a table

David Clint, a buddy of mine, was there with his
lovely wife Lulu, and on and on and on. Of course,
Krozier and Dana and Dave Weese and the whole bunch
were down there, plus oh, Nate Geo and Chris say
(03:15):
hi to.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
They were the team that put everything together. In Huntington Beach,
a chief of police, Eric Parks, that's.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Right, that guy's great man. Great. So during one of
the during one of the breaks, the guy comes up
to me and he's in a security outfit and he goes, hey,
you guys remember me? And I said, I need a
little more. You know, run into a lot of security
guys in my life, you know, tell me what to do,
what not to do, kicking me out of places, you know,
(03:42):
changing my behavior. Don't do that. Yeah right, I mean
I'm heavy, but they don't do that. Crowd or I
used to be. Not me Moore, I'm too old for that,
but before. I mean, I've had run ins, you know,
with these guys. Yeah. So he said, you don't remember me.
I said, I got to give me more than that.
And I said, you know, I'm sure, all right, I will.
He said, you remember about three or four years ago
(04:03):
when your car got broken? He's like, oh, yeah, okay,
you're the guy. You're the guy. Okay, So what happened.
I parked my car down there in one of those
undercar underground garages after the parade. It was the fourth
of July parade, and I come back and my car
window was broken and there's glass everywhere. And so I
said to that security guy, that guy worked there, and
(04:23):
he came over to say hi, which was very nice
of him. And Phil is his name, Phil the security guard,
And don't know much more than that. Don't know his
last name, where he lives, married, kids, nothing, nothing, So
I can't offer you much more. So he comes over,
says hi, and he says, I remember the window was
probably I say, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I do
remember that. What happened was I would park my car
(04:46):
down there, the SUV, the Lincoln right when I drive. Yeah,
it'll be nineteen years old in four short months. So
I am parked down there. I come back from the parade,
I get a ride. All the way back from the parade.
It's still a lot of people around, and my window's
broken in the navigator, completely shattered glass everywhere. So he
(05:07):
was a security guard there, and I was going to
call the cops, but I wanted to start with security
guy and see, you know, because there's a lot of
cops that I could probably drag one off the street
and go, hey, my car is broken into. So he said,
he said, oh, he goes there was a there was
another car broken into in this same area last night.
I'm like, oh, that's wild man, some guys you know,
(05:28):
still here doing it. Yeah, And then he looks at
my car and he says, I've never seen such a
clean break there's no glass there, and it's such a
clean break. There's there's not like ten like an inch
of the bottom of broken glass, cleaned it all off.
He must have just put you know, when when jumping
in there to see if there's anything to steal it,
which is not, you know, pulling at his body out whatever,
(05:49):
all the glass came out. I don't know. So he said,
can I roll your window up to see where the
glass level is? How deep it is in the window.
I said, yeah, sure, So he starts the car up,
he puts he presses the button to put the window up,
window goes up. I forgot, I forgot the no, I forgot,
(06:12):
I forgot to close it. And that glass was from
last night when somebody else's car was broken in, So
no wonder I didn't want to see him. You know,
it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
It's nice of him to remind you of that story.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
And it comes on because remember me, I do know,
I do now, But how about this. He saved me
from hunting embarras cop showing up like you know, three
or four cops showing up dusting for princes and then
the windows up.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I would have loved to have seen your expression when
you saw that, like, oh.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
I was like, oh that's great man, I can get
out of here. But I couldn't believe it, man. And
he walked away going laughing his ass off. Yeah, stupid man. Yeah,
I ran into I ran into a stupid man. I'm like, hey, Phil,
I'm going a live show down here. You got the
(07:08):

Speaker 4 (09:09):
Cafines you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Forty lots happening. Yeah, we got to thank everybody for
coming down to Huntington Beach last night or yesterday. That
was quite a party, man, that was great. And then
I went to Seal Beach to with my wife. My
wife came down with me, and we drove by the
place where we lived, and we went to our favorite restaurant,
one of our restaurants there that charo chicken that they
(09:35):
don't have up here, that they should have up here
in La but they don't, I don't think. And just
sat there in the marina and ate chicken and rice
and beans like to homeless people. So quite a night romantic.
All right, let's talk about Big Lots. I know Bellio
is a big fan of Big Lots. I think Angel goes.
(09:56):
I know my wife goes there all the time and
she feels no shame in walking into that store. Angel,
do you ever get you to you go to Big Lots? Yeah?
I love it. You feel dirty going in there or
coming out?
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Well, I put on like some dark glasses and on
a baseball cap, you know, and I.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
But you do feel filthy, you know, because you're going
into basically, uh, you know, yard sale or you know,
a guy's hoarding, like a hoarders. It should be called
hoarder's warehouse. Hoarders warehouse.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Our aisles are clear, but everything else is just dirty.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Everything sucks. Warehouse. We're actually going to get there hoarders warehouse,
all right, And nobody wants to sell anything, Like, oh,
you can't to sell that? What do you do here?
Speaker 6 (10:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
We want to keep that.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
You know.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
We was from a relative.
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Like what Big Lots is closing more than fifty of
its one hundred and nine stores.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Oh no, fifty, Almost half its stores are closed, and
it sounds likely Michaelson is a mourning.
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Big Lots is closing more than fifty of its one
hundred and nine stores across California amid sagging sales. And
this could be just the beginning.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
What just the beginning.
Speaker 7 (11:13):
Across California amid sagging sales, and this could be just
the beginning.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Oh, no, bad news for Big Lots, Big Lots, no good.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
The company reported a loss of two hundred five million.
What the company reported a loss of two hundred five million?
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Wait, there's two hundred and five million dollars worth of
stuff in those stores? Is that possible?
Speaker 7 (11:33):
The company reported a loss of two hundred five million
in the quarter ending May fourth. The same loss was
posted the year before.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
And I think if you would take all this stuff
in all one hundred and nine big Lots and I
appraise it, I don't think you could get to two
hundred million.
Speaker 8 (11:48):
I mean, they do sell furniture, so that might add up. No, buddy,
have you seen it. I've bought some of it.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
You've purchased furniture at Big Lots. It's good, it's good stuff.
Does it fall a part of the way home? Do
you still haven't some of the stuff?
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (12:03):
What do you have it at outdoor fronte?
Speaker 8 (12:05):
Well, like a like a double pantry, so for food
and stuff, so it doesn't really get a whole lot
of wear and tear.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
I guess, Wow, what did that cost you? Eight dollars?
Speaker 8 (12:12):
So it was on Clarence. Jesus kind of for a
hundred bucks. Sorry, I don't mean to use that term,
but I was shocked.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I was shocked. How much was it? It was one
hundred bucks, one hundred dollars on Clarence. Wait minute, it
was fifty there's one hundred dollars item on Clarence at
Big Lots. Yeah, well it was a it was a
wooden pantry. Yeah, but how they going out of business then?
I mean, you know, guys are a haul of Amazon,
you know, cabinets out of there. That is wild, buddy. Hey,
I got to apologize to Andrew Caravella. Did you see

so Bellia just gave it to him. Yeah, and it
says what did it say? It says Andrew, nice working
with you. And then you autographed it. But it's not
for me.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
But but she said it was for Andrew, and I
thought it was odd, so I signed it to you anyway.
I love that. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (13:20):
No, there's a there's a friend of the family and
I guess he's a major Tim Conway fan and his
birthday's coming up.
Speaker 1 (13:26):
His name Andrew. It is not Andrew. Otherwise that I
gonna do it again. We're gonna have to do it again.
But you know what, I am going to stick in
from my office. No, I'm keeping this. Can you just
cross out all that crap on the bottom and put
his name on it? Doesn't have to do any more work.
That's great.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
This is a problem I have with with Conway. He
only hears the first three words of every sentence or paragraph.
I say it again, heard, he moved it.
Speaker 8 (13:55):
We're working with Tim for three years and he autographs
a headshot for me.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
I love it. Thanks. No, See that story makes me
seem like a huge a hole that I would think
that the guy work working with Munce Biologram. I'm gonna
post this a social later for sure. I even gave
you a ding dog.
Speaker 4 (14:16):
I know.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
I feel special now. That's awesome, Like like I was
introduced to a guy who works up at Kiss FM,
and I'm gonna get in trouble for this, but I'm
gonna say it anyway. I don't give a Rad says,
but there's a guy who works upstairs. I don't know
if he still works here. Does Jesse the the the
boy Toy still work upstairs? I think, oh, he's not.
(14:38):
He's not. I don't think I feel more comfortable telling
the story now. When I first started here, I was
he was. He introduced himself to me. I said, I'm Conway,
work at KFIN and he goes, oh, I'm Jesse the
boy Toy and I work at Kiss FM. Like okay
with the whole boy toy? Did you autograph something for him? No,
(14:58):
just you know, when you work with a guy, I thought,
maybe lose the the boy. Well, I mean it's hip
for music, you know, I get it. I mean I don't.
I don't say to people you know, hey, dig do well,
maybe I do. All right, you've switched you to call
(15:22):
him out on that. I'm sorry it. I just realized
halfway through that story, I'm a hypocrite. All right, So Andrew,
enjoy that photo. You gave me a headshot and said
please fill it out and said who's it for? She
said Andrew? And then the door closed. I said, this
guy is not I'll just sign it with the hell
and I and there you go. So enjoy that, all right,
(15:44):
But tell me who the other guy is and I'll
put that. You know, all right, we'll do maybe next
I sign on Friday, so if you don't have it today,
I'll have to wait till next week. That's okay, all right.
I know I sound like a huge a hole, and
I think I am sort of I'm turning into one,
which I like. I like. I like that it was
a nice guy in my whole life. I think I'm
turning to aha like that a little more.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf

Oh well, I'm not the new host of TMZ. I'm
filling in on TMZ live for two days. So it
was a two day gig. Which I didn't know that,
which is actually which is actually airing right now as well,
which is kind of wild. And I guess we're giving
up the fact that a TMD Live isn't actually I'm
talking to you. And also busy tonight. I'm going to
(16:57):
be on tonight as well on Fox News Channel. My
buddy Bill Illusion is anchoring tonight from the La Duro,
so I'll be on with him at the guests in
the eight pm hour, because why not do another job?
So I don't yeah, do you ever? Day? But the best,
the best thing of all, of course is the hit
with Conway. This is my favorite part of the week.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I know you don't believe that. Hey, when when you
are offered a job, do you? Do you ever? Say no?
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Very rarely? Okay, I think I need to address this
more with my therapist.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Yeah, I'm going to get you a book from Amazon
I read years ago. It's How to Say No and
Not Feel guilty.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Okay, Yeah, that's a great book.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
It's a great book.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
All this stuff is good, though. I feel blessed today.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Can I play you something and ask you a question?
Speaker 3 (17:41):
Oh? This never goes well, but let's do it all
right here?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
We go here. I'm just gonna play this for you here.
Speaker 7 (17:45):
Big Lots is closing more than fifty of its one
hundred and nine stores across Keller.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Are you sound depressed out of your mind? That is
closing down? Here's the question, though, and and please answer
me honestly because I'll find out and you know, and
the lie is also is always worst. The cover up
is always worse than the line.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
Have I ever shopped at Big Lots before?
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Is that your two questions? Have you ever shopped at
Big Lots?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Have you ever had? You know where your your closest
Big Lots is?
Speaker 3 (18:13):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I'm not man honestly, Yes, great buddy, I love.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
You, buddy.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
I'm surprised that you challenge me on that because I
could drive you right now to my Big Lots. I
go to the one off off if you go on Magnolia,
you turn right on right before Lankashim and it's right there.
We're in in the NoHo Air North Hollywood area, near
that Ralphs on Magnolia. My wife goes there all the time.
(18:43):
She loves Big Lots. I don't like to go there
because I feel like it's it's a hoarder's warehouse, you
know what I mean, Like that's where hoarders go to shop.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Yeah, well, I mean they need big lots, I guess.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
But wouldn't they do better if they if they just
you know, hung a light on it and we're honest
with people like you are and just said, hey, welcome
to hoarder's warehouse.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Yes, that would maybe. Yeah, it seems to be a
big hoarders demographic in LA And also the city doesn't
really do anything about it, so why not just lean
into it? But you should make that one of our
Chamber of Commerce things.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
I'm glad you brought this up because I've lived in Cleveland,
I've lived in Toronto, I've lived in Orange County, I've
lived in you know, five six seven places. In my life,
I have never seen so many hoarders as I do
here in LA.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
It is disgusting, isn't it? And it's fine for the
neighbors that that call, some of them called for years,
try to do something about it. There next to these
places that smell bad, that are public safety threats, and
nothing is done until oftentimes we bring out the cameras
and then something is done, like in one day after
(19:58):
something wasn't done like three or four years, and when
they get on it, they can do it so fast.
They can bring the people in and have it all
done in like half the day. It's amazing how quickly
things happen. They're like, well, the mayor said, comes clean
it up. It's like, I bet she takes the driver
around the city. There's plenty of other things.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
But I also I've noticed this, speaking of, you know,
people with their crap. I have never again I've lived
in seven or eight different cities, I have never seen
so many people move their own crap on weekends on
the freeways in Los Angeles. And I always try when
I see the U haul or a pickup truck full
of crap and it's got a couple of straps on it,
(20:36):
to try to keep the chair in the bed in,
you know, in the truck before it blows out. I'm
always thinking, is this a move up or a move down?
I always try to figure out where the guy's going
in life.
Speaker 3 (20:47):
Yeah, maybe to move up you hire the movers. That's right,
it might be moved down unfortunately, right.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
And I always if somebody's doing around the middle of
the month, like the fifteenth or so that's a move down.
That's a guy who's been thrown out because you move
at the you know, first or the thirtieth, not the fifteenth.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah, and you know, sometimes it's the husband that's getting
to move out, which is not good either.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Yeah. A single man driving a truck full of stuff.
He's moving, he's moving on to his new life.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Yeah, you know, you know things didn't work out for.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Him, that's right. Yeah, and you know what for him?
And if you look in the cab and he's driving
his own crap, he's always smiling always. But what's on
that big show night? I know if there's politics still
going on?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Height, there is politics going on, you know Frank Lunch
the long Shore. Yeah, the strategists been on TV for
thirty years, does all the focus group stuff. He has
one of the most incredible homes you've ever seen. He's
got he's got a bull, he's got an Oval office,
an actual replica of the Oval office, and the Lincoln
(21:55):
bedroom and the White House bowling alley and a pool
table that you let's as Grant used, and all this
incredible memorabilia, all the biggest newspapers and magazines. It is
like a museum. So we do the show from his
house tonight. Oh wow, taking you through it, touring this
from our set is the Oval office and we try
(22:18):
out this stuff. I go in the bowling alley and
bowl I mean, it's the whole thing, and it's really amazing.
And you know, what a week to talk about politics
with everything going on between Harris and Trump and the
VP service this weekend and there's just a lot going on.
I mean, the VP interviews are happening now and are going
to be happening over the next few days. The announcement's
coming out on Monday.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Frank Lunch was nice enough to have LAPD. He opened
up his house to LAPD to have their Christmas party
there and I went with with well now the assistant chief,
Alan Hamilton, and sat at his table. I thought that
was really cool. One of the highlights of my life.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
Yeah, he does a lot of fundraisers that's really charitable
with that which is isn't an amazing property?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
I mean never like it, right, Yeah, and outside is
even more spectacular than inside. It's it's great, it's it's
it's it's like the most unique. It's like if Penn
and Teller were to own a home. That's what it
would look like.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
Yeah, and speaking of a Burbank, he's got the big Boy,
the original big Boy from Bob's Big Boy. I don't know,
I don't know how he got it. He's got all
this stuff.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I mean, it's like it was stolen like eight years ago.
Maybe he stolen who knows.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
We just figured that out. We just figured that out.
Maybe you just doubted it on the conway then.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
Yeah, like tonight when the l a p. D Comes
buying the rest and we'd be like, oh, man, I
guess I should have said anything with the home.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Yeah, maybe I shouldn't have done that giant fundraiser for
you at my house.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
That's why he did it. You know. The guys are
always closest to the cops are always the guys that are,
you know, committing the most crimes.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
That was the premise of Breaking Bad.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
I mean, that's there's a lot of that.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
But I really appreciate you coming on and we'll talk
to you next week. I love all the success you're having, buddy.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Oh, thank you so much. A big part of it
is because of you. Thank you. That's not true, and
it's really it really is. My favorite part of the week.
It's talking.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
I love the fact that I love the fact you've
never been to a Big Lots and you have no
idea where they are. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Isn't it better that I'd be honest?
Speaker 1 (24:20):
It's great because you're so you're in mourning and your
voice is like, you know, like six kids just got
wiped out in a car accient.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
Big Lots is closing more than fifty of its one
hundred and nine stores.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Look, you feel for the employees, buddy, that nobody deserves
to lose their job. That's sad.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
Look, there's always a bad angled every story, but Big
Lots going out of business. They said they had two
hundred here's the number at the end. Listen to this
number here at the end. I know you did this,
two hundred and five million. Two under. They lost two
hundred five million. I we said earlier. I think I did.
If you had all hundred and nine stores and added
up all the crap and there, how do you get
to two hundred million. I don't think you can't. Yeah,
(25:03):
thanks for calling in, and we'll speak with you next week.
John dig DeLong with you, buddy, all right? There he
goes Alex Michaels saying that guy's classic never been to
a big lots and has no idea where they are.
That is a great life. I wish I had that
life where I didn't have, you know, people my family
(25:25):
sniffing around big lots. I wish I was like that
kind of guy. I had that kind of do where
I didn't know where big lots was, but I do.
I've been to big lots. THO was there three months ago,
you know, rummaging, threw on my hands and knees and
for crap, Yeah whatever, all right, big lots, no good,
no good, the rummage warehouse or hoarder's warehouse. Going on business.
Speaker 4 (25:48):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun you're on demand from KF
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
All right, we continue Your valley homes are continuing to
be broken into. No stop in sight. They got the
cops out there on horses. They're riding around, riding around.
That's what they do. They ride around and they can't
stop this. They just can't stop.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
It.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Happened again last night, happens almost every night in Sino
Sherman Oaks, Tarzana Studio City. They're coming, They're coming, for
your stuff because you got money and poor people don't.
And the poor people are tired of being broke, and
they find it easy to break into your house and
(26:31):
take your crap from you rather than working twenty years
or thirty years and may not even get there. So
they're coming in to take your stuff. They're broke, you're not.
They're coming in for your crap.
Speaker 9 (26:44):
Another busy night for burglars and police who are trying
to catch them.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Take a look.
Speaker 9 (26:49):
The story starts here in Incino.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Oh, in Sino again in Sino, which I think it
means oak tree. Does that mean? Is that true? I
don't know if that's true or not. In Sina means
oak tree, and in Spanish or Native American, I don't know,
but there's a connection there. Look it up.
Speaker 9 (27:07):
At around six ten pm, that's when a couple leaves
their home. This is near Linley, just south of Ventura.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Boulevard too s all right, Linley south of Ventura Boulevard
East to live over there on a street Enfield. I
lived on Enfield and Valley Vista for a while. We
rented a house and this pretty cool house. I like
living there a couple of years. Thing dog, the Ventura Boulevard.
Speaker 5 (27:30):
You're right about in see now. Oh it is a
Spanish yeah, Spanish for oak.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Okay, all right, learn a little something thing. Dog with you.
Angel Martinez always on top of everything. She knows everything.
Speaker 9 (27:41):
Man the Ventura Boulevard to go run some errands.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Okay, they're leaving Lindley and Ventura going off to run
some errands. Maybe they're going to the Surprise Store or
Mosca tells or I don't know, it's still in that area.
The movies of Tarzana Famous Amos poppin Tacot. What's in
that area? La Fiesta Builders Emporium. I don't know if
(28:07):
any of those stores are still there, but that's that
was in the area. What none of that craps there anymore?
Speaker 3 (28:14):
No? Sorry.
Speaker 9 (28:15):
When they return around eight o'clock, they found their rear
glass lighting door shattered and their home ransacked. The burglars
getting away with jewelry, purses and other items.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
You got to hide the jewelry, Hide those purses, ma'am.
Speaker 9 (28:28):
At eleven PM, it appears a whole other gang of
burglars were busy in Brentwood, where a couple arrived home
from dinner to find their front door wide open and
all the lights on inside it.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 9 (28:41):
After police cleared the house, the family found a large
safe that had been bolted down to the ground on
the second floor.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Was gone. The man, I don't know. I think these
are all inside jobs. I think it might be you know,
it might be somebody who's like working at the house,
or a friend or you know, tells somebody, Hey, there's
a big safe in this house in Brentwood, and then
like a year later, somebody comes in and grabs all
your crap. That's probably why nobody's ever broken into our house,
(29:09):
because people come into our house and work in our
house and like, wow, this guy broke Nothing going on
in here, nothing happening in here. And that's that's That's
how you get relief from burglars is you you put
all your money into Santa Nita and you get no
jewelry or big purses or any of that crap, and
(29:29):
they don't break in. So if you want to prevent
your house, you don't have to buy an alarm. You
just have to spend all of your money on horse
racing and uh, you'll be good to go.
Speaker 9 (29:41):
Was gone. The burglars apparently dragging it downstairs.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Hey, look, someone's gonna spend your money. Might as well
be you before they come in and take it. Ill
go to Vegas with it, go to Marongo, go to
the racetrack and spend it yourself before they come take it,
because they're coming to take it. They're coming to take it.
Speaker 9 (29:58):
Was gone the burglar, apparently dragging it downstairs, leaving behind
a trail of damage and into a waiting truck.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Yeah. So when they drag that heavy safe down the stairs,
and you know they're gonna be banging into walls and
banging into banisters and the whole run because they want
to get the hell out of there before the cops
show up and shoot them.
Speaker 9 (30:18):
Speaking off camera, the owners say they're scared now and
don't feel safe in a neighborhood that was supposed to
be safe.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
That's right, that's what you get, right, that's what you get. Unfortunately,
in today's society, when there's no punishment for a lot
of these guys, it continues. You know, I mean, everybody
voted for gas gom Let's change the rules. Anything under
nine point fifty is a misdemeanor. Put a guy in
(30:46):
who's not that high on keeping people in jail, and
here's what you get.
Speaker 9 (30:51):
Half an hour later, the valley burglars appear to have
hit again, this time in Sherman Oaks.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
We're back to Sherman Oaks, all right, back to the valley.
The guys have come back back home, as we call it.
Speaker 9 (31:02):
Most likely this crew connected to a string of burglaries
that have hit the valley hard. This home not far
from Vanuy's Boulevard in the one oh one freeway. Here
at least two mast men smash their way into a
home where they were quickly confronted by the homeowner.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
Oh here we go, homeowner's home. Maybe he's got a gun.
Speaker 9 (31:20):
They ran out empty handed, you know, even speaking.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Wow wild West out here in the valley.
Speaker 9 (31:25):
Now, we've been speaking this morning to neighbors who live
here in the valley, and they tell us they're worried,
really worried.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Yeah they should be. We are scared.
Speaker 6 (31:34):
Actually, well, oh, our neighborhood, it's like it s used
to be. Not even close the doors me. Personal are
even afraid to go to backyard without somebody's coming with me.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, I get that. People are afraid to even go in
the backyards. They know what's out there.
Speaker 9 (31:49):
And Larissa herself was held up at gunpoint during a
break in into her Tarzana home just two years ago.
Police telling us they've increased patrols in the area is
being targeted, but so far that hasn't seemed to deter
these burglars. Reporting live, I'm Gigi Grassiat.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Ggi Grassiac. Great job, little buddy. I'm telling you you
can't be anti gun. You've got to have a gun
and protect yourself from this mayhem.
Speaker 5 (32:18):
Hey, timmy, ma'am, do you think that any of these
homeowners thought somebody tried to break in and just realized
they left the windows open?
Speaker 1 (32:29):
A How dare you? I Am going to key your
car and I might steal your safe and your purses
and your jewelry. How about that? I know where you
live though. All right, We're live on KFI AM six
