Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's k IF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am six forty and you're listening to The Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. It is the
Conway Show. All right, ting dong, We're back live. It's Monday,
and I think the whole crew is here. I've seen
Belly Oh you're here right, And Crozier's in there somewhere.
(00:22):
Angel is Angel with us, Ricky's with us, and of
course steph USh stephohs the hardest working man in radio
over the last week who has a lot of work.
I was in Smart and Final last night. I went
to a Smart and Final and the one on Hollywood
Way and FORDU go and I want to get, you know,
(00:44):
a couple of you know, Kansas sauce, maybe a couple
of bags of pasta, so I don't feel like a total,
you know, loser when I show up empty handed tomorrow
at the Catarinas Club. So I go in there and
the announcement it's Gary and Shannon, you know, saying hey,
come down to you know, donate money at the cash register.
And then my announcement came on and I thought that
(01:05):
was pretty cool, you know, to be at Smart and
Fi on one of my favorite markets. And to hear,
you know, the announcement going, hey, donate money at the
cash register to Katarina's club. That was a cool deal.
And I hurt my back yesterday and I didn't want
to tell my wife how I heard it because I
(01:27):
would have sounded like an a hole. Yeah, and I didn't,
and so I just you know, I took some advil,
I put a heating pad on it. And she said,
how did you hurt your back? And I said, I
really don't want to talk about it. I don't want
to talk about it. And she said, why is that?
Why don't you want to talk about? You something to do?
Something you should have done. Were you at the Santa
(01:49):
Anita and you lost a bet and you got pissed
and you slipped? I said, well that happened, but that's
not how I hurt my back. And she said how'd
you hurt it? And I said, okay, will you promised
not to judge me? She goes, all right, I promised
not to judge you. I said, I feel like an
a hole saying this. I think I bought too much
(02:11):
sauce at Smart and Final. You think, see, that's exactly
what I was. That's exactly what why. I didn't say
it because Angel Martine is that kind of you know comment.
I think I bought too much sauce at at Caterina's Club,
I mean at the smart and Final and and I
(02:32):
and I hurt my back with with the cans of saw.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
May I ask this question? Or did you buy the
sauce on your way to the track?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
No, no, karma, you know what I bought. I bought
the sauce after I lost a lot of races. I figured,
you know, I although I did buy some pasta before,
thinking that that would turn my luck around the track,
and that clearly didn't did not happen. I made a
rookie move though I've been going to the racetrack for
(03:03):
I don't know a better part of five decades. And
I go on Thanksgiving because my wife and daughter were
out of town and I was going to go to
with Thanksgiving and I know that they run an early
card on Thanksgiving. Oh and I got there too late
and nobody was there. I walked around Santa Anita for
(03:24):
a half hour and I never saw a guy work
there who worked there, never saw a guy who's betting there.
It was just me and two old horses. Oh and
I got a video of it too. I have a
video of me walking through Santannita and nobody stops you.
It's weird, you know. You kids just walk into Disney
Lane when they're closed and nobody stops you. Between nine
hundred guys that stop you before you get into Disneyland
(03:45):
and arrest you. Tory in jail and you're gone. But
it's Santannita. I like to relaxed atmosphere out there. You
walk around middle of the night, middle of the day,
it doesn't matter. Nobody ever stops you and says, hey,
what's going on with you? Why are you here at midnight?
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Nobody?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
It's great, it's fantastic. But I made the rookie move.
And I was the only guy there on Thanksgiving, the
only guy. Unbelievable, Why Bellio. I know, when we come
back from vacation like this, everybody wants to know what
you guys did, so real briefly, belly O, how was
your Thanksgiving? Where'd you go? What'd you do?
Speaker 3 (04:20):
It was wonderful.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Went to my sister in laws and the food was amazing.
And yeah, and I was in charge of whipping the potatoes.
Caused a little controversy because I overwhipped so they were
so smooth, and the people that like lumps were a
little upset.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
They're horrible.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Oh they were delicious. I don't know, are you a lump.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Or a no, I'm a tween or I don't want
to you know, soup soup.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
It was just like fun. It was just whipped beautifully silky.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Seems like Laura, you know Scudder's time, you know, like.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Like the peanut butter, the smooth peanut butter.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
It does seem like Swanson's though. You know those potatoes
you get in the frozen meal. Oh yeah, yeah, they're like, yeah,
that little butter dollups in the middle of steph fujh.
What'd you do for Thanksgiving? You work?
Speaker 5 (05:12):
I work Thanksgiving? And then I went to the auto
show on Friday with my dad. It's a yearly tradition
we've done for since probably I've been born.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Wow, would you drive anything cool?
Speaker 6 (05:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
I actually got to drive the cyber truck. Wow, trip
is that cool? Would you like to buy one?
Speaker 6 (05:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I could afford it. No, I would never get that.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
But then I also did the Tesla S The model
as like the four door kind of bigger sedan, and
that's a That one's a trip because it's like starting
the car is basically like opening up your iPhone. So
you get in the car, you swipe up, you put
in a pin number, it's on. And then we take
the test drive and then they like they had it
all all of them backed in and I couldn't find
(05:55):
a shifter. So I said to the to the ladies, like,
how do you reverse? Oh, you just wwipe it back
down and then that's how you go and reverse. It
was all digital.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
It was. It was really really cool. They got it
going on over there. Test What did you do? A
croche pretty much home the whole time. Good for you.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Had Jen's family over on Thanksgiving Day, we did the
We did the catering thing from Whole Foods for the
Thanksgiving dinner. They actually the second year we've done that
and it is phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Is that pricey?
Speaker 7 (06:20):
No?
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Actually it was pretty good. Price bucks. Well there was
ten of us, so yeah, a little bit more than that, Yeah,
like eight couple, no, no, two fifty's I actually worked
out really well, especially price per person.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Okay, crosh without be asking me, and I know if
you be asked me, how many drinks did you have
between the time you left here on Friday until five
minutes ago?
Speaker 6 (06:44):
It's like when I left, uh, the whole week from
Wendy's that Friday night, two weeks ago, ten days ago.
I don't have enough fingers of toes.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I knocked it out pretty good too, I went too far. Yeah,
every day was a good haze for me. I didn't
have to go anywhere. I think I got in the
car maybe two times. Oh, that's great, that's fantastic. Angel.
Any interesting Thanksgiving stories? Nope, Okay, thank you for coming on.
You got it all right. Pastathon the fourteenth Annuel Pastathon
(07:19):
is here. Chef Bruno's charity, Caterina's Club, provides over twenty
five thousand meals every week to kids in need in
southern California. So donate. You can donate or or or
bid on our exclusive offer we have. I believe ours
is a king game, right, bellyon, We're gonna get on
twenty three March. Oh the where are the Eyes of March?
(07:42):
Isn't that right? March twenty third? It's a movie? So
join us tomorrow. But you can bid. When is the bid?
When is the auction closed?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
You know, I think n Tuesday evening.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Okay, some you got some time, and it's gonna be me,
a guy named Keith, and and two of you going
to a King game on March twenty third, and we'll
all go. We'll meet down there. We're not gonna drive together.
We'll meet down there. I'll probably blow it off. You'll
probably end up just with Keith and you know, and
you'll complain and then I'll fall on deaf ears and
(08:15):
we'll put another bid in for next year. But that'll
be fun. It'll be March twenty third King game. I
went to a King game over the vacation. I went
to a Winnipeg Jets game. Winnipeg Jets are the best
team in hockey and the King smoked them. And since
my daughter my wife were in Oregon, I went to
the King game solo like I used to. And that
(08:37):
is a great move. That is a great move. You
can walk around, you can sit where you want, you
can eat what you want, you can turn the air
conditioning on how you like it, you can go to
the men's room when you want, and you never have
to check in with anybody. And so I bought a
nineteen dollars ticket because there was vacation, a lot of
people were out of town nineteen dollars to see the
(08:57):
La Kings nineteen dollars and fifty cents. And then when
you get into the stadium, you look up on Ticketmaster
to see what seats are available still, and then you
go sit in those. I could see section thirteen, row three,
seat B is completely open. Nobody bought a ticket, so
I went. I sat there, enjoyed myself. So that's a tip.
(09:19):
That's a tip on how to buy a cheap ticket
and then find out where nobody's sitting with the Ticketmaster
app and then go sit there. You'll enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
There are some great stuffs for auction, by the way,
for the pastathon.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Oh yeah, well we come back, we'll go through them.
We'll go through them when we come back. There are
some you've got a bit on yours. Oh we did?
What is it?
Speaker 6 (09:36):
It's well on one bid? You want me to say
the amount? Sure, it's at fifteen hundred, fifteen hundred dollars
current bid. Wow, there's not fifteen hundred dollars worth of
entertainment there for sure, I.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Don't think so.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
You are playing on leaving?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Yeah, I don't know. I've I probably blow it off,
but for yeah, but for now, it's where it's a go.
It's a go for now. But you know something will
come up and I won't be there. Yeah, oh yeah,
for sure. What a way to get the money in
for these kids, right pick guys say he's gonna blow
it off with them again. No, I'll be there for sure.
(10:11):
It's March twenty third, me, Keith and two of you
going to a hockey game together, and that'd be a
lot of fun.
Speaker 6 (10:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I think they're playing the Blackhawks. I don't remember know
who they're playing March Way Throw. I think it's Chicago,
so it should be a great game as well, and
the King should be in the hunt for playoff berth
at that point. Let's say get wiped out in February,
which which usually happens. All right, relyve on KFI. We'll
come back and go through the auctions at tomorrow's big Pastathon.

You can go to the King's game with me. It's

traveled during the holidays, you know what a nightmare was.
(17:35):
I don't know if you saw last night crows you
did because you're a sports fan. Did you see the
Bills game last night?
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Did not?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Oh? My god, the snows.

I love it.
Speaker 6 (17:45):
That's awesome football games right there.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
You know, we look at that snow on TV and think, oh,
that's a lot of fun to be in the snow
and be a game like that. But as soon as
the game's over, that becomes a huge pain in the ass,
getting home, getting your car stock, freezing your ass off,
getting wet, getting cold, getting hot, getting wet, getting cold,
going through all that, then getting home, taking off all
(18:09):
the layers, trying to take a shower, trying to get
your clothes in the dryer. The dryer's broken. It's a
pain in the ass. It's a long night in Buffalo,
and then we wake up here. There's very few clouds
in the sky and it's supposed to be seventy eight
degrees this week in the valley. Seventy eight degrees in
(18:31):
the valley this week. So we pay a lot to
live in this crazy, you know, part of the world,
but we get the benefits. It's going to be seventy nine.
It's gonna be eighty degrees on Friday, eighty degrees on Friday,
seventy eight on Saturday, the most beautiful weekend ever. Now, okay,
(18:51):
remember eighty and seventy eight for this Friday and Saturday. Okay,
remember those two numbers now, Buffalo four and twenty nine. Okay,
I'm sorry, twenty one and twenty six.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
It's actually worse.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Twenty one is the low. Twenty nine is the high
on Saturday. Twenty six is low. Thirty three is the high.
It's going to be twenty nine degrees in Buffalo when
it's seventy nine degrees here. That's why we live here.
Speaker 8 (19:22):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Many of you got out there on Black Friday and
fought the crowds and got involved. I did the same thing.
I enjoy it. I like getting I like being part
of the craziness. I don't mind, you know, driving around
for twenty minutes find a parking spot, getting honked at,
getting yelled at, it's all part of the experience. And
(19:49):
then going in there and watch, you know, people fighting
over products. It really is great. It's it's what America
is all about. Fat people grabbing more items to make
them fatter, like toaster ovens, deep fryers. That's the new
hip thing. That have a deep fried at home, little
basket deep friar. Because we're not big enough yet, we
(20:11):
need we can't afford to every time we want something
deep fried. We can't afford to go to McDonald's or
you know, Burger King or I don't know, Wendy's. You
gotta do it at home airfrying.
Speaker 6 (20:21):
We got a seriously deep.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Fried nothing better than deep fried food. Oh it's the best.
But we spent a lot of money. Shopping at Mall's
was up I think zero point five percent. I think
it was up at half a percent. But shopping online
up fifteen percent from last year. Fifteen percent is huge,
(20:42):
that's astronomical. It's about ten times. So they thought it
was going to be people decided to stay home and
shop at home. And I noticed that because one of
my stops on Black Friday was Costco and it was
nobody there. I went late, went right around closing time,
about half hour before they closed, and nobody was there. Nobody,
And I've sort of I now deal with getting the eye,
(21:07):
you know from the guy who works at Costco who
lets you in, and if you get there like ten
to fifteen minutes before closing, he gives you the eye
right like, why are you here so late? We're closing soon.
He doesn't say that to you, but his body language
says it to you. And you have to show him
your card and they scan it in and you get
into your private club, because that's what it is. Costco
(21:27):
is a private club. They don't have any private parking
spots yet, but I think that's coming. I think that's coming.
I think eventually gonna have private parking at Costco for
a price, for a price, But that's got to be
around the corner because you know, rich people go there,
and rich people like to have everything taking care for themselves.
So there's gonna be a parking area that's going to
(21:48):
be gated off and it's for rich people only, and
they're going to enjoy that, and you're going to feel
like a scumbag because you're not in that area. But Americans,
we spend, we spend, spend, spend over the weekend.
Speaker 11 (22:00):
Long lines have been steady since them all opened this morning,
but crowns are willing to wait to snag a deal,
and they're off.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
The holiday shopping season.
Speaker 11 (22:10):
It's officially underway and Americans are sprinting for savings.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
Look for the deals, the best deals that I can find,
and try to stick.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
Within my budget.
Speaker 11 (22:19):
Online spending hit a record ten point eight billion dollars
on Black Friday.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
That's amazing. We spend ten billion dollars just on Friday.
Speaker 7 (22:27):
A jump of ten percent from a year ago.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, it's actually fifteen. She got it wrong. It's fifteen.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
And instore promotions are bringing customers back to in person shopping.
Speaker 7 (22:36):
So far, so good.
Speaker 12 (22:37):
We found some good deals at Nike, and I was
just at Kate Spain.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I found a really cute wallet.
Speaker 11 (22:42):
As inflation cools, more Americans are opening up their wallets.
Speaker 7 (22:46):
The average shopper, No, I like this.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
I like the enthusiasm in this young lady. I don't
know how old she is, maybe she's their twenties or thirties.
Speaker 7 (22:52):
I was just at Kate Spain. I found it really
keyte wallet.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I mean like somebody stopped her in the mall with
a camera for a news, you know, news organization, and said, hey,
can we interview and she said yeah, sure. Like what'd
you get? Oh, I went to Kate Spaine, I got
a cute wallet. How do think I'd ever say that? Like, oh,
I went to Adidas and got an awesome pair of shoes.
I don't know. It's odd you wouldn't say anything, or
you wouldn't stop. I don't know I'd stop and go
yeah I got. I don't know what I got. I
(23:16):
don't know why you care. I would be the worst,
you know.
Speaker 7 (23:20):
I was just at Kate Spain.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
Didn't see anybody out there with no cash. I only
saw people with lots of cash. I don't know where
they all got it, but everybody had money.
Speaker 11 (23:53):
By now, pay later services like a firm Klarna and
shop pay are becoming increasingly popular.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Expecting over the course of the season.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yeah, these things, these are new layoways, buy now, pay.
Speaker 11 (24:06):
Later services like a firm, Clarina and shop pay.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Okay, those are layaways. Those are you know, you buy
something now and then you pay for it in I
don't know seven or eight you know, payments, yeah, right,
and a lot of people will bail on it. You know,
they'll make the first payment they go, am, I didn't
do it anymore, and then that'll be over.
Speaker 7 (24:25):
Firm, Clarina and shop pay.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Yeah, just what they used to be. They used to
call l way you know, Bellio, you remember this your
old school, like I am. But the layaway was you'd
go to a store and you'd see something you'd like.
They know the money for it, so they'd put it aside.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Yeah, and you'd make payments on it.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Yeah, and then once you made your final payment, you
can come pick it up.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, and then it was out of style by then,
trust me, it happened a lot.

High, a record high.
Speaker 11 (25:26):
Forty seven percent of consumers are still bang off last
year's holiday debt.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
I've been in that position before, and I don't really
like being in that position. Save your mind.

Speaker 11 (25:40):
Year's Black Friday sales happen on mobile devices.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Man oh Man, all right, Cyber Monday. That was today,
and a lot of people spend a lot of money, man,
lots of cash. We come back though, I'm going to
tell you a little b about Cyber Monday. It's supposed
to break bake break records today. But also some tips.
You can still get in under the wire. There's still
a couple hours left and go back. I'll lay lay
some pretty good tips on you.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KF.
I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I love that Harry Style. I saw him in concerts.
Not really, I mean my daughter and her friend went
to the concert. Just say you were outside, Yeah, did
you go in?
Speaker 12 (26:26):
Nah?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
I didn't go in, but he was loud enough wh
I could hear it outside. I stood outside in the
rain with an inglewood cop and we just talked about
inglewood and cop stuff, and it was raining, and we
sat there and listened to a muffled Harry Styles. And
he says, why are you here? He says, hold your daughter?
I said fifteen. He goes, oh, okay, I get it. I
(26:48):
get it. She just fifteen. Her friend was fifteen, and
so I had to take him to the form, you know,
three four years ago, and they went into the concert
and I could have gone home, but instead I went
to the sizzler on the corner. There a prairie and
I don't know Englewood Bury him, not century, but that
(27:11):
old that old uh you know steak joint that's right there.
The sizzler in the corner there, that's a great sizzler.
I have a lot of great fond memories of the
Forum growing up. My dad just take us to the
King games. My mom would take us to a Laker
game occasionally. And I had my uncle had a friend
(27:32):
named John, and I don't want to say his last
name because I don't know if he's still alive. And
he's a painter. He was he painted houses for a living,
and he's an Irish guy. He drank a lot and
he painted a lot, and he drank a lot. And
one day he drank too much and he fell off
(27:52):
the scaffolding and he broke his leg. But he de insurance.
And so my uncle and I were going to the
King game that night, and he said, Hey, can I
go through the King game? He said, yeah, but don't
you have a broken leg? He goes, YEA, I think
I'm okay with it, though, I think it'll I think
it's gonna be fine. He gets in the car and
he's like screaming the whole way to the King Game. Ah,
(28:15):
don't stop so fast. Leg is on fire. It's broken.
He has a broken leg, and he didn't have an
insurance so he couldn't have a treat it. He didn't
have that kind of money. So we get to the form.
He's screaming the whole way there.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Ah ah, got.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Swearing, yelling, more swearing, drinking, yelling, swearing, you know, pills everything.
And we finally get to the form and we get
out of the car and he finds one of those
wooden horses you know that directs traffic. There's two legs
or four legs on it and then just a two
by four and you know, you put them around to
(28:54):
direct traffic and where you want him to go. And
he runs over to one and he falls over it
and flips on the grind and he goes, I need
an ambulance. I think I broke my leg. I need
an ambulance. And the Forum ended up paying for his
whole visit to the hospital. Wow, because they thought it
was their fault.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
That was only about eight or nine when that happened.
I'm like, okay, there's a lesson. You took all that
in Oh yeah, yeah. And that's the way he went
through life. You know, it's somebody else paying for.
Speaker 6 (29:28):
It, all know, somebody like that, somebody.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Who you know is it was always scamming and always on,
you know, trying to get the egg leg up and
you and.
Speaker 6 (29:38):
You look at them with that that combination of derision
and disgust and straight up admiration and.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Jealousy, right because they got it somewhat going on, even
though they DON'TOK at you game.
Speaker 6 (29:52):
In the system. Good for you, hang on. That screws me.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Yeah, that's exactly what happens, man, exactly. All right, we're
in cyber Monday. Here's some two for you. It's still
you know, we're still got what five six, seven, seven
hours and six minutes left of Cyber Monday, and these
deals are still going on, so check them out.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
Cyber Monday. This is it.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
This is the big deal one.
Speaker 10 (30:14):
We've already seen record breaking sales on what Friday. Today
is expected to be very similar. Consumers spent nearly eleven
billion dollars on Black Friday, and of course today is
cyber Monday. Adobe predicting more than thirteen billion dollars in spending.
And there's one new trend, AI assistance. They are now
changing how we shop online. Here's a look at some
(30:35):
of the new ways to help you find the best deals.
Cyber Monday was created in two thousand and five to
promote online shopping.
Speaker 8 (30:41):
It worked.
Speaker 10 (30:42):
Now it's a day synonymous with some of the best
deals of the season.
Speaker 12 (30:49):
During the part of the pandemic, it was really challenging
to get deals, and now we're seeing more deals that
are sort of returning to pre pandemic levels.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Speaking of deals, I was in Walmart last night and
I saw a ninety eight inch television ninety eight inches
for fifteen hundred bucks or fourteen eighty nine whatever. Yeh, No,
ninety eight inches. You know what, that's bigger than my
first bed was not ninety eight inches. This thing is
(31:20):
bigger than my bed. And I don't know. I don't
know how you get at home. Yeah, that's the other thing.
Because the box is almost six feet long and five
feet tall. I don't know how you get at home
unless you have a U haul, which I don't know
why you're driving a U haul around. I don't know
how you get it home. You have to rent a
pickup truck where you go to home depot for that
(31:41):
twenty nine bucks for two hours, you can drive their truck.
I have a feeling those trucks don't come back very often.
You know, twenty nine bucks gone, Yeah, now it's his,
it's his truck now. But man, that's a sweet deal.
Speaker 10 (31:55):
And Marie Conti is with the product review site Wirecutter.
Speaker 12 (31:59):
So I think the real key is if you see
something that you want the price you want by it
this year.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
AI can be a helpful shopping companion.
Speaker 10 (32:06):
If your chat GPT account has access to the web,
it can return key information on reviews and who has
the best deal on a particular product. That's right, Anne,
Marie KNTI is a Marie. It got Amazon and Costco right,
but not best Buy and Target. So like anything else
with AI, fact check perplexity dot AI is also a
(32:26):
great resource. It can combine multiple reviews of a product
into one simple summary.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Cool idea. You know what I think everyone should have
and I want to get one as soon as I can.
A dash camera, because there are so many people out
there they're going to try to crash into you or
take advantage of you, or you get into an accident
and they say it's your fault when it's their fault.
And I think a dash camera is probably worth its
weight in gold if you ever have to use it.
Speaker 6 (32:51):
Especially in southern California.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
But yes, exactly, especially in the home of giant, giant
day holes here in southern California. Got to get a
dash camera. I did little research on the best ones.
I don't know. I'm not sold on which one is
the best one yet, but I got to get one.
I've got to get one. There's so many people out
(33:13):
there who will take advantage of you, and they'll sue you,
and it's going to be your word against theirs, and
a lot of times your insurance company will just want
to settle, they don't want to go to court, and
they'll pay eight or nine, ten thousand dollars to the guy,
and then your insurance is going to go up. I
recommend everybody get a dash camera. I had my accident
(33:33):
a little over a month ago, a month and a
half ago. It just got my car back last week,
and I'm still waiting on a decision by the insurance
company because the two guys that hit me took off
and it was a hit and run.
Speaker 6 (33:45):
Is that right? Trying to determine who are they going
to lay the fault on. I was in the third
and a five car pile up. But the two guys
behind me took off, So it's like I'm waiting for
them to say it's all my fault somehow, and I
didn't even hit them.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Wow, that's but see, if you had a dash camera,
you could say, hey, this is not my fault, exactly right.
But you know the reason why dash cameras in the
past weren't that good because they weren't they when you
went to court. They weren't a legitimate source of information.
Now they are. Now they are, and so I recommend
you get a dash camera, especially if you have a
(34:18):
sixteen year old or seventeen year old out there driving.
You got to get a dash camera because you know
a lot of people plow into them. They'll see that
they're sixteen. They'll blame it on that kid. Oh yes
they will, and that kid's gonna have, you know, their
insurance go up for the next ten years. So go
out right now, stop what you're doing. Go get a
dash camera. I'm gonna get one too. We'll get one.
(34:39):
We'll be Dash brothers, all right. Relive on KFIM six

(00:22):
Angel is Angel with us, Ricky's with us, and of
course steph USh stephohs the hardest working man in radio
over the last week who has a lot of work.
I was in Smart and Final last night. I went
to a Smart and Final and the one on Hollywood
Way and FORDU go and I want to get, you know,
(00:44):
a couple of you know, Kansas sauce, maybe a couple
of bags of pasta, so I don't feel like a total,
you know, loser when I show up empty handed tomorrow
at the Catarinas Club. So I go in there and
the announcement it's Gary and Shannon, you know, saying hey,
come down to you know, donate money at the cash register.
And then my announcement came on and I thought that
(01:05):
was pretty cool, you know, to be at Smart and
Fi on one of my favorite markets. And to hear,
you know, the announcement going, hey, donate money at the
cash register to Katarina's club. That was a cool deal.
And I hurt my back yesterday and I didn't want
to tell my wife how I heard it because I
(01:27):
would have sounded like an a hole. Yeah, and I didn't,
and so I just you know, I took some advil,
I put a heating pad on it. And she said,
how did you hurt your back? And I said, I
really don't want to talk about it. I don't want
to talk about it. And she said, why is that?
Why don't you want to talk about? You something to do?
Something you should have done. Were you at the Santa
(01:49):
Anita and you lost a bet and you got pissed
and you slipped? I said, well that happened, but that's
not how I hurt my back. And she said how'd
you hurt it? And I said, okay, will you promised
not to judge me? She goes, all right, I promised
not to judge you. I said, I feel like an
a hole saying this. I think I bought too much
(02:11):
sauce at Smart and Final. You think, see, that's exactly
what I was. That's exactly what why. I didn't say
it because Angel Martine is that kind of you know comment.
I think I bought too much sauce at at Caterina's Club,
I mean at the smart and Final and and I
(02:32):
and I hurt my back with with the cans of saw.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
May I ask this question? Or did you buy the
sauce on your way to the track?
Speaker 2 (02:41):
No, no, karma, you know what I bought. I bought
the sauce after I lost a lot of races. I figured,
you know, I although I did buy some pasta before,
thinking that that would turn my luck around the track,
and that clearly didn't did not happen. I made a
rookie move though I've been going to the racetrack for
(03:03):
I don't know a better part of five decades. And
I go on Thanksgiving because my wife and daughter were
out of town and I was going to go to
with Thanksgiving and I know that they run an early
card on Thanksgiving. Oh and I got there too late
and nobody was there. I walked around Santa Anita for
(03:24):
a half hour and I never saw a guy work
there who worked there, never saw a guy who's betting there.
It was just me and two old horses. Oh and
I got a video of it too. I have a
video of me walking through Santannita and nobody stops you.
It's weird, you know. You kids just walk into Disney
Lane when they're closed and nobody stops you. Between nine
hundred guys that stop you before you get into Disneyland
(03:45):
and arrest you. Tory in jail and you're gone. But
it's Santannita. I like to relaxed atmosphere out there. You
walk around middle of the night, middle of the day,
it doesn't matter. Nobody ever stops you and says, hey,
what's going on with you? Why are you here at midnight?
Speaker 4 (03:59):
Nobody?
Speaker 2 (04:00):
It's great, it's fantastic. But I made the rookie move.
And I was the only guy there on Thanksgiving, the
only guy. Unbelievable, Why Bellio. I know, when we come
back from vacation like this, everybody wants to know what
you guys did, so real briefly, belly O, how was
your Thanksgiving? Where'd you go? What'd you do?
Speaker 3 (04:20):
It was wonderful.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Went to my sister in laws and the food was amazing.
And yeah, and I was in charge of whipping the potatoes.
Caused a little controversy because I overwhipped so they were
so smooth, and the people that like lumps were a
little upset.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
They're horrible.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Oh they were delicious. I don't know, are you a lump.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Or a no, I'm a tween or I don't want
to you know, soup soup.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
It was just like fun. It was just whipped beautifully silky.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Seems like Laura, you know Scudder's time, you know, like.
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Like the peanut butter, the smooth peanut butter.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
It does seem like Swanson's though. You know those potatoes
you get in the frozen meal. Oh yeah, yeah, they're like, yeah,
that little butter dollups in the middle of steph fujh.
What'd you do for Thanksgiving? You work?
Speaker 5 (05:12):
I work Thanksgiving? And then I went to the auto
show on Friday with my dad. It's a yearly tradition
we've done for since probably I've been born.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Wow, would you drive anything cool?
Speaker 6 (05:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
I actually got to drive the cyber truck. Wow, trip
is that cool? Would you like to buy one?
Speaker 6 (05:31):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (05:31):
I could afford it. No, I would never get that.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
But then I also did the Tesla S The model
as like the four door kind of bigger sedan, and
that's a That one's a trip because it's like starting
the car is basically like opening up your iPhone. So
you get in the car, you swipe up, you put
in a pin number, it's on. And then we take
the test drive and then they like they had it
all all of them backed in and I couldn't find
(05:55):
a shifter. So I said to the to the ladies, like,
how do you reverse? Oh, you just wwipe it back
down and then that's how you go and reverse. It
was all digital.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
It was. It was really really cool. They got it
going on over there. Test What did you do? A
croche pretty much home the whole time. Good for you.
Speaker 6 (06:08):
Had Jen's family over on Thanksgiving Day, we did the
We did the catering thing from Whole Foods for the
Thanksgiving dinner. They actually the second year we've done that
and it is phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Is that pricey?
Speaker 7 (06:20):
No?
Speaker 6 (06:20):
Actually it was pretty good. Price bucks. Well there was
ten of us, so yeah, a little bit more than that, Yeah,
like eight couple, no, no, two fifty's I actually worked
out really well, especially price per person.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
Okay, crosh without be asking me, and I know if
you be asked me, how many drinks did you have
between the time you left here on Friday until five
minutes ago?
Speaker 6 (06:44):
It's like when I left, uh, the whole week from
Wendy's that Friday night, two weeks ago, ten days ago.
I don't have enough fingers of toes.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
I knocked it out pretty good too, I went too far. Yeah,
every day was a good haze for me. I didn't
have to go anywhere. I think I got in the
car maybe two times. Oh, that's great, that's fantastic. Angel.
Any interesting Thanksgiving stories? Nope, Okay, thank you for coming on.
You got it all right. Pastathon the fourteenth Annuel Pastathon
(07:19):
is here. Chef Bruno's charity, Caterina's Club, provides over twenty
five thousand meals every week to kids in need in
southern California. So donate. You can donate or or or
bid on our exclusive offer we have. I believe ours
is a king game, right, bellyon, We're gonna get on
twenty three March. Oh the where are the Eyes of March?
(07:42):
Isn't that right? March twenty third? It's a movie? So
join us tomorrow. But you can bid. When is the bid?
When is the auction closed?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
You know, I think n Tuesday evening.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Okay, some you got some time, and it's gonna be me,
a guy named Keith, and and two of you going
to a King game on March twenty third, and we'll
all go. We'll meet down there. We're not gonna drive together.
We'll meet down there. I'll probably blow it off. You'll
probably end up just with Keith and you know, and
you'll complain and then I'll fall on deaf ears and
(08:15):
we'll put another bid in for next year. But that'll
be fun. It'll be March twenty third King game. I
went to a King game over the vacation. I went
to a Winnipeg Jets game. Winnipeg Jets are the best
team in hockey and the King smoked them. And since
my daughter my wife were in Oregon, I went to
the King game solo like I used to. And that
(08:37):
is a great move. That is a great move. You
can walk around, you can sit where you want, you
can eat what you want, you can turn the air
conditioning on how you like it, you can go to
the men's room when you want, and you never have
to check in with anybody. And so I bought a
nineteen dollars ticket because there was vacation, a lot of
people were out of town nineteen dollars to see the
(08:57):
La Kings nineteen dollars and fifty cents. And then when
you get into the stadium, you look up on Ticketmaster
to see what seats are available still, and then you
go sit in those. I could see section thirteen, row three,
seat B is completely open. Nobody bought a ticket, so
I went. I sat there, enjoyed myself. So that's a tip.
(09:19):
That's a tip on how to buy a cheap ticket
and then find out where nobody's sitting with the Ticketmaster
app and then go sit there. You'll enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
There are some great stuffs for auction, by the way,
for the pastathon.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Oh yeah, well we come back, we'll go through them.
We'll go through them when we come back. There are
some you've got a bit on yours. Oh we did?
What is it?
Speaker 6 (09:36):
It's well on one bid? You want me to say
the amount? Sure, it's at fifteen hundred, fifteen hundred dollars
current bid. Wow, there's not fifteen hundred dollars worth of
entertainment there for sure, I.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Don't think so.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
You are playing on leaving?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Yeah, I don't know. I've I probably blow it off,
but for yeah, but for now, it's where it's a go.
It's a go for now. But you know something will
come up and I won't be there. Yeah, oh yeah,
for sure. What a way to get the money in
for these kids, right pick guys say he's gonna blow
it off with them again. No, I'll be there for sure.
(10:11):
It's March twenty third, me, Keith and two of you
going to a hockey game together, and that'd be a
lot of fun.
Speaker 6 (10:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I think they're playing the Blackhawks. I don't remember know
who they're playing March Way Throw. I think it's Chicago,
so it should be a great game as well, and
the King should be in the hunt for playoff berth
at that point. Let's say get wiped out in February,
which which usually happens. All right, relyve on KFI. We'll
come back and go through the auctions at tomorrow's big Pastathon.
Come on down to the White House tomorrow, see everybody
(10:40):
from Amy King to Moe Kelly. Come down, enjoy yourself
and help out a good cause.
Speaker 8 (10:45):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
We're gonna be at in Anaheim tomorrow at the White
House all day long from five am till ten pm.
Five am with Amy King, all the way to ten
pm with Mo Kelly. And we have some beautiful auction
items that you can bid on. One of them is
co hosting with John Colbot, co Belt, Colebolt, Cole Belt.
(11:14):
I remember when it should be John and Kenny. You'd
be easier to say the John and Ken Show. And
that's you can co host with John. That's item one
hundred and that it'll cost you at least two eight
hundred and seventy six dollars. A Dodger game with Gary
and Shannon eighteen hundred bucks. Co host with Mo Kelly
(11:36):
nineteen hundred dollars. Is that for a whole night with
Mo Kelly the entire night? Yeh wow. I'd like to

traveled during the holidays, you know what a nightmare was.
(17:35):
I don't know if you saw last night crows you
did because you're a sports fan. Did you see the
Bills game last night?
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Did not?
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Oh? My god, the snows.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
I did see the highlights.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
I love it.
Speaker 6 (17:45):
That's awesome football games right there.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
You know, we look at that snow on TV and think, oh,
that's a lot of fun to be in the snow
and be a game like that. But as soon as
the game's over, that becomes a huge pain in the ass,
getting home, getting your car stock, freezing your ass off,
getting wet, getting cold, getting hot, getting wet, getting cold,
going through all that, then getting home, taking off all
(18:09):
the layers, trying to take a shower, trying to get
your clothes in the dryer. The dryer's broken. It's a
pain in the ass. It's a long night in Buffalo,
and then we wake up here. There's very few clouds
in the sky and it's supposed to be seventy eight
degrees this week in the valley. Seventy eight degrees in
(18:31):
the valley this week. So we pay a lot to
live in this crazy, you know, part of the world,
but we get the benefits. It's going to be seventy nine.
It's gonna be eighty degrees on Friday, eighty degrees on Friday,
seventy eight on Saturday, the most beautiful weekend ever. Now, okay,
(18:51):
remember eighty and seventy eight for this Friday and Saturday. Okay,
remember those two numbers now, Buffalo four and twenty nine. Okay,
I'm sorry, twenty one and twenty six.
Speaker 6 (19:06):
It's actually worse.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Twenty one is the low. Twenty nine is the high
on Saturday. Twenty six is low. Thirty three is the high.
It's going to be twenty nine degrees in Buffalo when
it's seventy nine degrees here. That's why we live here.
Speaker 8 (19:22):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Many of you got out there on Black Friday and
fought the crowds and got involved. I did the same thing.
I enjoy it. I like getting I like being part
of the craziness. I don't mind, you know, driving around
for twenty minutes find a parking spot, getting honked at,
getting yelled at, it's all part of the experience. And
(19:49):
then going in there and watch, you know, people fighting
over products. It really is great. It's it's what America
is all about. Fat people grabbing more items to make
them fatter, like toaster ovens, deep fryers. That's the new
hip thing. That have a deep fried at home, little
basket deep friar. Because we're not big enough yet, we
(20:11):
need we can't afford to every time we want something
deep fried. We can't afford to go to McDonald's or
you know, Burger King or I don't know, Wendy's. You
gotta do it at home airfrying.
Speaker 6 (20:21):
We got a seriously deep.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Fried nothing better than deep fried food. Oh it's the best.
But we spent a lot of money. Shopping at Mall's
was up I think zero point five percent. I think
it was up at half a percent. But shopping online
up fifteen percent from last year. Fifteen percent is huge,
(20:42):
that's astronomical. It's about ten times. So they thought it
was going to be people decided to stay home and
shop at home. And I noticed that because one of
my stops on Black Friday was Costco and it was
nobody there. I went late, went right around closing time,
about half hour before they closed, and nobody was there. Nobody,
And I've sort of I now deal with getting the eye,
(21:07):
you know from the guy who works at Costco who
lets you in, and if you get there like ten
to fifteen minutes before closing, he gives you the eye
right like, why are you here so late? We're closing soon.
He doesn't say that to you, but his body language
says it to you. And you have to show him
your card and they scan it in and you get
into your private club, because that's what it is. Costco
(21:27):
is a private club. They don't have any private parking
spots yet, but I think that's coming. I think that's coming.
I think eventually gonna have private parking at Costco for
a price, for a price, But that's got to be
around the corner because you know, rich people go there,
and rich people like to have everything taking care for themselves.
So there's gonna be a parking area that's going to
(21:48):
be gated off and it's for rich people only, and
they're going to enjoy that, and you're going to feel
like a scumbag because you're not in that area. But Americans,
we spend, we spend, spend, spend over the weekend.
Speaker 11 (22:00):
Long lines have been steady since them all opened this morning,
but crowns are willing to wait to snag a deal,
and they're off.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
The holiday shopping season.
Speaker 11 (22:10):
It's officially underway and Americans are sprinting for savings.
Speaker 9 (22:14):
Look for the deals, the best deals that I can find,
and try to stick.
Speaker 7 (22:18):
Within my budget.
Speaker 11 (22:19):
Online spending hit a record ten point eight billion dollars
on Black Friday.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
That's amazing. We spend ten billion dollars just on Friday.
Speaker 7 (22:27):
A jump of ten percent from a year ago.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, it's actually fifteen. She got it wrong. It's fifteen.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
And instore promotions are bringing customers back to in person shopping.
Speaker 7 (22:36):
So far, so good.
Speaker 12 (22:37):
We found some good deals at Nike, and I was
just at Kate Spain.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I found a really cute wallet.
Speaker 11 (22:42):
As inflation cools, more Americans are opening up their wallets.
Speaker 7 (22:46):
The average shopper, No, I like this.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
I like the enthusiasm in this young lady. I don't
know how old she is, maybe she's their twenties or thirties.
Speaker 7 (22:52):
I was just at Kate Spain. I found it really
keyte wallet.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I mean like somebody stopped her in the mall with
a camera for a news, you know, news organization, and said, hey,
can we interview and she said yeah, sure. Like what'd
you get? Oh, I went to Kate Spaine, I got
a cute wallet. How do think I'd ever say that? Like, oh,
I went to Adidas and got an awesome pair of shoes.
I don't know. It's odd you wouldn't say anything, or
you wouldn't stop. I don't know I'd stop and go
yeah I got. I don't know what I got. I
(23:16):
don't know why you care. I would be the worst,
you know.
Speaker 7 (23:20):
I was just at Kate Spain.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
I found out really cute wallet. Did you Okay? Well,
that's that's cool.
Speaker 11 (23:25):
As inflation cools, more Americans are opening up their wallets.
The average shopper we'll spend a little over one thousand
dollars on gifts.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Oh my god, we're gonna spend a grand this year on.
Speaker 11 (23:36):
Gifts, up fourteen percent from last year. Man, for those
who don't have the cash, buye and man.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
By the way, that's noble. Everybody's got cash.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
For those who don't have the cash, I.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Didn't see anybody out there with no cash. I only
saw people with lots of cash. I don't know where
they all got it, but everybody had money.
Speaker 11 (23:53):
By now, pay later services like a firm Klarna and
shop pay are becoming increasingly popular.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Expecting over the course of the season.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Yeah, these things, these are new layoways, buy now, pay.
Speaker 11 (24:06):
Later services like a firm, Clarina and shop pay.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Okay, those are layaways. Those are you know, you buy
something now and then you pay for it in I
don't know seven or eight you know, payments, yeah, right,
and a lot of people will bail on it. You know,
they'll make the first payment they go, am, I didn't
do it anymore, and then that'll be over.
Speaker 7 (24:25):
Firm, Clarina and shop pay.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Yeah, just what they used to be. They used to
call l way you know, Bellio, you remember this your
old school, like I am. But the layaway was you'd
go to a store and you'd see something you'd like.
They know the money for it, so they'd put it aside.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Yeah, and you'd make payments on it.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Yeah, and then once you made your final payment, you
can come pick it up.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Yeah, and then it was out of style by then,
trust me, it happened a lot.
Speaker 7 (24:51):
Are becoming increasingly popular.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
We're expecting over the course of the season, just over
eighteen billion dollars to be pro.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Is this Harry Styles does they have a new job.
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Over the course of the season, just over eighteen billion
dollars to be processed through Buy Now Pay Laser Day.
Speaker 11 (25:09):
Putting your purchases on plastic will cost you. Retailer credit
card interest rates are on average just over thirty percent.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Wow, the average is over thirty percent.
Speaker 7 (25:19):
Thirty percent, woo.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Man oh man, I remember when it was nineteen I
thought that was.
Speaker 7 (25:24):
High, a record high.
Speaker 11 (25:26):
Forty seven percent of consumers are still bang off last
year's holiday debt.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
I've been in that position before, and I don't really
like being in that position. Save your mind.
Speaker 7 (25:35):
I'll put it on plastic now.
Speaker 11 (25:36):
Those who don't want to brave the crowds aren't alone.
Speaker 7 (25:38):
Nearly fifty eight percent of this.
Speaker 11 (25:40):
Year's Black Friday sales happen on mobile devices.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Man oh Man, all right, Cyber Monday. That was today,
and a lot of people spend a lot of money, man,
lots of cash. We come back though, I'm going to
tell you a little b about Cyber Monday. It's supposed
to break bake break records today. But also some tips.
You can still get in under the wire. There's still
a couple hours left and go back. I'll lay lay
some pretty good tips on you.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KF.
I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
I love that Harry Style. I saw him in concerts.
Not really, I mean my daughter and her friend went
to the concert. Just say you were outside, Yeah, did
you go in?
Speaker 12 (26:26):
Nah?
Speaker 2 (26:26):
I didn't go in, but he was loud enough wh
I could hear it outside. I stood outside in the
rain with an inglewood cop and we just talked about
inglewood and cop stuff, and it was raining, and we
sat there and listened to a muffled Harry Styles. And
he says, why are you here? He says, hold your daughter?
I said fifteen. He goes, oh, okay, I get it. I
(26:48):
get it. She just fifteen. Her friend was fifteen, and
so I had to take him to the form, you know,
three four years ago, and they went into the concert
and I could have gone home, but instead I went
to the sizzler on the corner. There a prairie and
I don't know Englewood Bury him, not century, but that
(27:11):
old that old uh you know steak joint that's right there.
The sizzler in the corner there, that's a great sizzler.
I have a lot of great fond memories of the
Forum growing up. My dad just take us to the
King games. My mom would take us to a Laker
game occasionally. And I had my uncle had a friend
(27:32):
named John, and I don't want to say his last
name because I don't know if he's still alive. And
he's a painter. He was he painted houses for a living,
and he's an Irish guy. He drank a lot and
he painted a lot, and he drank a lot. And
one day he drank too much and he fell off
(27:52):
the scaffolding and he broke his leg. But he de insurance.
And so my uncle and I were going to the
King game that night, and he said, Hey, can I
go through the King game? He said, yeah, but don't
you have a broken leg? He goes, YEA, I think
I'm okay with it, though, I think it'll I think
it's gonna be fine. He gets in the car and
he's like screaming the whole way to the King Game. Ah,
(28:15):
don't stop so fast. Leg is on fire. It's broken.
He has a broken leg, and he didn't have an
insurance so he couldn't have a treat it. He didn't
have that kind of money. So we get to the form.
He's screaming the whole way there.
Speaker 7 (28:29):
Ah ah, got.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Swearing, yelling, more swearing, drinking, yelling, swearing, you know, pills everything.
And we finally get to the form and we get
out of the car and he finds one of those
wooden horses you know that directs traffic. There's two legs
or four legs on it and then just a two
by four and you know, you put them around to
(28:54):
direct traffic and where you want him to go. And
he runs over to one and he falls over it
and flips on the grind and he goes, I need
an ambulance. I think I broke my leg. I need
an ambulance. And the Forum ended up paying for his
whole visit to the hospital. Wow, because they thought it
was their fault.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
That was only about eight or nine when that happened.
I'm like, okay, there's a lesson. You took all that
in Oh yeah, yeah. And that's the way he went
through life. You know, it's somebody else paying for.
Speaker 6 (29:28):
It, all know, somebody like that, somebody.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
Who you know is it was always scamming and always on,
you know, trying to get the egg leg up and
you and.
Speaker 6 (29:38):
You look at them with that that combination of derision
and disgust and straight up admiration and.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Jealousy, right because they got it somewhat going on, even
though they DON'TOK at you game.
Speaker 6 (29:52):
In the system. Good for you, hang on. That screws me.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Yeah, that's exactly what happens, man, exactly. All right, we're
in cyber Monday. Here's some two for you. It's still
you know, we're still got what five six, seven, seven
hours and six minutes left of Cyber Monday, and these
deals are still going on, so check them out.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
Cyber Monday. This is it.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
This is the big deal one.
Speaker 10 (30:14):
We've already seen record breaking sales on what Friday. Today
is expected to be very similar. Consumers spent nearly eleven
billion dollars on Black Friday, and of course today is
cyber Monday. Adobe predicting more than thirteen billion dollars in spending.
And there's one new trend, AI assistance. They are now
changing how we shop online. Here's a look at some
(30:35):
of the new ways to help you find the best deals.
Cyber Monday was created in two thousand and five to
promote online shopping.
Speaker 8 (30:41):
It worked.
Speaker 10 (30:42):
Now it's a day synonymous with some of the best
deals of the season.
Speaker 12 (30:49):
During the part of the pandemic, it was really challenging
to get deals, and now we're seeing more deals that
are sort of returning to pre pandemic levels.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Speaking of deals, I was in Walmart last night and
I saw a ninety eight inch television ninety eight inches
for fifteen hundred bucks or fourteen eighty nine whatever. Yeh, No,
ninety eight inches. You know what, that's bigger than my
first bed was not ninety eight inches. This thing is
(31:20):
bigger than my bed. And I don't know. I don't
know how you get at home. Yeah, that's the other thing.
Because the box is almost six feet long and five
feet tall. I don't know how you get at home
unless you have a U haul, which I don't know
why you're driving a U haul around. I don't know
how you get it home. You have to rent a
pickup truck where you go to home depot for that
(31:41):
twenty nine bucks for two hours, you can drive their truck.
I have a feeling those trucks don't come back very often.
You know, twenty nine bucks gone, Yeah, now it's his,
it's his truck now. But man, that's a sweet deal.
Speaker 10 (31:55):
And Marie Conti is with the product review site Wirecutter.
Speaker 12 (31:59):
So I think the real key is if you see
something that you want the price you want by it
this year.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
AI can be a helpful shopping companion.
Speaker 10 (32:06):
If your chat GPT account has access to the web,
it can return key information on reviews and who has
the best deal on a particular product. That's right, Anne,
Marie KNTI is a Marie. It got Amazon and Costco right,
but not best Buy and Target. So like anything else
with AI, fact check perplexity dot AI is also a
(32:26):
great resource. It can combine multiple reviews of a product
into one simple summary.
Speaker 2 (32:32):
Cool idea. You know what I think everyone should have
and I want to get one as soon as I can.
A dash camera, because there are so many people out
there they're going to try to crash into you or
take advantage of you, or you get into an accident
and they say it's your fault when it's their fault.
And I think a dash camera is probably worth its
weight in gold if you ever have to use it.
Speaker 6 (32:51):
Especially in southern California.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
But yes, exactly, especially in the home of giant, giant
day holes here in southern California. Got to get a
dash camera. I did little research on the best ones.
I don't know. I'm not sold on which one is
the best one yet, but I got to get one.
I've got to get one. There's so many people out
(33:13):
there who will take advantage of you, and they'll sue you,
and it's going to be your word against theirs, and
a lot of times your insurance company will just want
to settle, they don't want to go to court, and
they'll pay eight or nine, ten thousand dollars to the guy,
and then your insurance is going to go up. I
recommend everybody get a dash camera. I had my accident
(33:33):
a little over a month ago, a month and a
half ago. It just got my car back last week,
and I'm still waiting on a decision by the insurance
company because the two guys that hit me took off
and it was a hit and run.
Speaker 6 (33:45):
Is that right? Trying to determine who are they going
to lay the fault on. I was in the third
and a five car pile up. But the two guys
behind me took off, So it's like I'm waiting for
them to say it's all my fault somehow, and I
didn't even hit them.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Wow, that's but see, if you had a dash camera,
you could say, hey, this is not my fault, exactly right.
But you know the reason why dash cameras in the
past weren't that good because they weren't they when you
went to court. They weren't a legitimate source of information.
Now they are. Now they are, and so I recommend
you get a dash camera, especially if you have a
(34:18):
sixteen year old or seventeen year old out there driving.
You got to get a dash camera because you know
a lot of people plow into them. They'll see that
they're sixteen. They'll blame it on that kid. Oh yes
they will, and that kid's gonna have, you know, their
insurance go up for the next ten years. So go
