Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. I'll keep
it eying Milton. It is coming towards Florida. It is
going to hit and it's going to wipe a lot
of people out. And they said, the mayor said, if
you stay in Tampa, you're going to die. That's the

(00:21):
that's the message there. If you stay in Tampa, you're
going to die.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (00:25):
She said, if you're in the evacuation zone and you
stay here, you're.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Going to die.

Speaker 4 (00:29):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
So we'll keep an eye on Milton and the progress
that it makes. So here's the story. My dad back
in the nineteen maybe in late sixties, early seventies. I
think I was seven or eight years old, so it
could have been sixty nine seventy somewhere in there, and
he was asked to do a charity event in Chicago.

(00:53):
We're in Cleveland at the time, and he was asked
to do a charity event in Chicago, and they were
going to flying to Chicago. He was going to do,
you know, a half hour forty five minutes of jokes.
They people can ask him questions about his career about
McHale's Navy, the whole run. And so they fly him
to Chicago from Hopkins Airport in Cleveland. Not a private jet,

(01:18):
you know, passenger, public transport, public airways. They fly him
to Chicago, they pick him up, he does his set,
does the charity, and he notices that there's a lot
of guys who worked for the city there, you know,
a lot of the city employees there. And back in

(01:39):
the sixties and early seventies in Chicago, the mob ran
that town Chicago. I don't know if they still do,
but they did then, and my dad met a few
of those guys, but it wasn't filled with those guys.
There was like one or two table of those guys
and the rest of them were you know, city employees.
Probably about two thousand people there. There's a big deal.

(02:00):
And so they thanked my dad for doing the event.
And he literally went there at I don't know, he
left Cleveland at noon and he was home the next
day by noon. So it's just a one day event.
And he gets back and we pick him up at
the airport. You know, how was the event? Doh was
grades A lot of people are and it was a
really cool event and they and they gave me some

(02:25):
Tonka toys for you kids, and I said, oh, that's
very nice. You know, we're young, you seven to eight
years old, nine years old. So we get back to
my grandparents' house and my dad gives me this box.
But it's a Tonka truck and you could see through
the cellfhane at the truck. And I opened it up
and in the bottom of it was fifty thousand dollars

(02:46):
in cash. Stuck in the bottom of that box was
fifty thousand dollars in cash. And I said to my
dad and said, hey, you know there's money in this box.

Speaker 4 (03:00):
And he says, well, what do you mean money?

Speaker 1 (03:02):
And I showed him and there was fifty thousand dollars
in cash. And my dad turned white as a ghost.
Pretty white guy anyway, but even whiter. And he got
on the phone and he called the guys that did
the event and he said, hey, somebody put fifty thousand

(03:24):
or maybe he is missing fifty thousand dollars and they
put it this Tonquer truck case. And I don't want
someone to come after me because they're you know, they
switch boxes.

Speaker 4 (03:34):
You know, it was a mob box that should have gone.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
To this guy and I was like, now I have it,
and the guy said no, no, no, that's just us
saying thank you for doing the event.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
That's all yours.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
And my dad said, okay, I'd like to fly back
to Cleveland or to Chicago on my own dime and
give you this money back. And the guy says, well, no,
that's your appearance fee. He said, no, no, I told you
I'll do the event for free. I'm going to fly back.
I'll each at the airport and I'm gonna give you
this fifty thousand dollars. He flew back to Chicago, gave

(04:05):
him the fifty grand, and then flew back to Cleveland.

Speaker 4 (04:08):
Did he check the bag with the fifty grand?

Speaker 5 (04:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
I don't know, but I think he.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
I don't know about the details, but I know he
gave the money back and he flew back to Cleveland.
And I said, and even at a young age, I said, wow,
what happened here?

Speaker 4 (04:22):
Why'd you do that? Dad?

Speaker 1 (04:24):
Yeah, and there's fifty that's a lot of money. Look
in retrospect, I would have never told my dad, you know,
he'd give me the money.

Speaker 4 (04:31):
I should have socked it away. Where'd this twenty grand
from from.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Yeah, no, that's right. Your kid's new car is extraordinary
and he's only eleven.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
The biggest mistake of my life is telling my dad
that I had the cash and he returned the money,
and I said, what had happened? And like years later
he explained it to me. He said, look, you were
too young for me to explain it to you. But
that's how you become indebted to the mob. You do
them a favor, they pay you fifty grand. Now you

(05:02):
got to do them another one. Then they pay you
one hundred grand. Now you gotta do another one they
pay and that's all of a sudden, you're in their
life and you're flying around doing all kinds of events
for these guys.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
And he goes, I don't want to do that. Yeah,
I don't want to be that guy. Ultimately he should
have gone that route.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
Oh if it sounds to me like you got a
pretty good gig going, and.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Look what happened at Sinatra. You know, look how much money.
But Sinatra made.

Speaker 3 (05:28):
Fifty grand, hundred grand, one hundred fifty grand. That's rights,
we're going the right way.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
I don't have the problems, but I do remember this
I remember very distinctly, my dad's doing a video late
in life called Dwarfund Fishing, and we're out at Lake
casts Steak and the sun's going down. They can't get
the shot, and my dad's cold and he's wet, and
I said to him, I said, should have kept that
fifty grand. And you never really hear my dad swear,

(05:56):
but I heard him few. You know, that is great,
that's a great story. And I must say, a thousand
dollars back in nineteen sixty nine, what is that worth now?

Speaker 4 (06:06):
Three four hundred thousand.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
I can imagine that amount, and I'm not sure even
with the uh in retrospect.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
I get his it speaks to his purity of heart
and understanding things.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
But I don't know, man, I he should have gone
that round.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
I might have.

Speaker 6 (06:23):
Yeah, fifty grand from nineteen sixty nine would be roughly
four hundred and thirty thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Story.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
Wow, how about that that Tonka truck?

Speaker 2 (06:34):
That's real. That's a real talk. Yeah, that's a real Trney.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
I knew there was something odd about it because it
was a Tonka truck with the cellophane wrap around it,
and then there was sort of like a big back
end of it that I thought maybe there was another
you know, attachment to the truck inside there, like the
extension that yeah right, yeah, yeah, there was. There was
nothing in there, nothing going on in there. Oh that's
where the fifty grand was in that one. And thank
God that I got it, because they gave you know,

(06:59):
he gave enough these Tonka trucks for me and my brothers,
my sister. And if my brothers got that fifty grand,
you would mum was the word.

Speaker 7 (07:06):
Man.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
They would have never said anything. My dad would have
been all mobbed up for the rest of his life.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
That's the movie, right, the kid takes the money. You
didn't take it, but your kid took it, and now
you're in debt to the mob.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
That's the movie.

Speaker 1 (07:21):
He's all mobbed exactly. He's nine years old smoking a cigar, right,
you know. And and the reason why he didn't want
to do it is because there was a big, huge
mob war going on between Cleveland and Chicago, and my
dad lived in Cleveland, so he didn't want the Cleveland
mob pissed at him that he's all mobbed up with
the Chicago guys. Uh, you know, because that's where you

(07:42):
really run into trouble. You know, when you live in
a town and you're mobbed up with another town. That's
when they come by and say, hey, what's going on
with you?

Speaker 4 (07:50):
You know? So he knew it, My dad knew what
was going on.

Speaker 2 (07:53):
It sounds like it was the right move.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
Actually, yeah, it turns out it probably was.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
But I don't know.

Speaker 4 (07:58):
I should have kept the te shook out the dough
and take took money from the Cleveland mob too.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
I see, you know, well, I think that doesn't end well.

Speaker 4 (08:07):
A Sinatra, how it ends?

Speaker 1 (08:09):
You know, you're worth eight hundred million dollars and your
name's all over the place.

Speaker 4 (08:13):
That's how it ends.

Speaker 8 (08:15):

You know what he can't do show up late and
blame traffic.

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Oh yeah, yeah, you're right, being a traffic dude. Yeah,
that'd be a bad. Look.

But in it. Yeah, Crozier High School had a huge
part in that.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Yeah, as Detroit, I was the Detroit Sinata character.

Speaker 4 (11:10):
Oh you were Nathan Detroit. Oh that's kind of cool.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
Did you watch the movie with the Sinatra or you know, like,
did you want to leave it kind of your own interpretation?

Speaker 2 (11:19):
You wanted a certain purity about the way you approached
the work.

Speaker 6 (11:22):
I didn't end up well back then, I do the
availability to go see it wasn't exactly Oh that's right, yeah, yeah,
but I did.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
I did not see beforehand. No, you didn't see Guys
and Dolls the movie? Ye, no, not before I did it. No,
And in future performances. Is that the vibe on you?

Speaker 2 (11:40):
What's that like?

Speaker 4 (11:41):
You don't do a performance that you've seen the movie.

Speaker 6 (11:43):
Well, I do like it to be original from me.
I don't like to be unduly influenced, whether subliminally or otherwise.

Speaker 4 (11:49):
I see, are you off for only at this point?
Or do you audition?

Speaker 10 (11:52):
No?

Speaker 2 (11:52):
Audition? You know, I don't have the cachet of either
of you two. Yeah, we're offer only in here.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Crazy.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
You should be an actor, you really should be.

Speaker 6 (12:05):
I gave my shot, realized it wasn't for me, all
the behind the scenes stuff, so that was good enough.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Yeah, that was very satisfied.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
But still, look there are you know Rodney Dangerfield didn't
start and do anything until he was like fifty five.

Speaker 6 (12:17):
Yeah, it's pretty crazy how much I see that as
all these people that got started in their perspective successful
careers entertainment otherwise, starting right around mid for at fifties.

Speaker 10 (12:25):
Ye.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
Yeah, I think you can do it, buddy, I really do.

Speaker 6 (12:28):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
I think you have the Oh I could, I know
you have the chops. Yeah, certainly have the publicity do
it now? You know do will Cole Shriver's spot?

Speaker 2 (12:36):
Yeah? Why you could start by under what do they
call that?

Speaker 4 (12:39):
Understudy?

Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, you can understudy that role.

Speaker 5 (12:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (12:42):
When I was in West Side Story, I was actually
the understudy for the two leads aside from Tony, but
both leads were the head of the Jets and the
head of the Sharks, so I had to learn a
lot along. Did you ever get in Well, I had
my own character I was I did as well.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
Actions. Wow.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Waitmu, you were your own character and understudy for the
two leads. Yeah, got you memorized the whole thing. Yeah,
pretty much did. Yeah, but that's my OCD anyway. So
it worked out really well.

Speaker 4 (13:05):
And you find it easy to memorize stuff.

Speaker 6 (13:09):
I haven't had to in that in that vein, but
it was easy for me. Then, Yeah, I find it
impossible really. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
I was given three lines in liquorice Pizza, and I
rehearsed them over and over and over and over. There
were three short, small little lines. And I showed up
with the script on the data shoot and I and
I said to Paul, the director, said hey, can I
put these on the floor and look at him?

Speaker 4 (13:34):
He goes, Tim, got them? Mighty? How many takes did
you do? Do you remember? I think it was three
or four?

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Man, They were like, all right, fine, that's good enough.
Oh my god, he couldn't believe it.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
I'm with Tim.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
It's really when you're used to ad libbing, then memorizing
is actually very hard. I was in a made for
television movie that in a way had Fred Dryer in
that one night Oh yeah, sure, yeah, it was that Hunter.
It was a Hunter movie and I played a real
and I had two lines, and just like Tim for
the day before, I was doing those two lines. It

(14:07):
was just one more question, Hunter, Just you know, how
close are you making this case?

Speaker 2 (14:11):
Just one more question?

Speaker 3 (14:12):
Hunter? How close are you to breaking this case? Just
one more question a hunter? And I just said it
over and.

Speaker 6 (14:15):
Over and over again, not to mention it's like, that's
exactly what you would do.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
Anyways. It weren't like hard lines right exactly.

Speaker 3 (14:23):
I was just miserable. I'm just it's your anxiety, you know.
I was just so anxious about it.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
I even said to my wife after like three weeks,
I said, can you run lines with me? And she was, Tim,
you've had these for three weeks. You've been doing it
every night for three weeks. Please, you can't commit anything
to memory. It's wrong with you, something wrong with you.
I think she was onto something. All right, let's talk
about you see, we don't time a right, we'll come
back and talk. There's a problem at UCLA. If you

(14:49):
got a kid that goes to UCLA, you got to
listen to the story coming back. There's a druggings problem.
People are warning students being drugged at off campus parties
at UCLA.

Speaker 4 (15:00):
This is a big deal. So we'll come back and
tell you about it.

Speaker 8 (15:03):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Maya from
KFI Am six forty.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
So Donald Trump was on with John Colebel today. You
can go listen to it on the podcast. Who's on
for half hour commercial free, So go listen to There
you go.

Speaker 3 (15:20):
Why he would be on regularly with John, like kind
of a John and Ken thing, but this time it
would be it would be John and.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Don if he especially if he needs a job. On
November six, things don't go well, Yeah, it's possible, all right.
UCLA bad news A. UCLA police are warning students of
being drugged at off campus parties.

Speaker 10 (15:39):
UCLA police say those two victims reported being drugged with
an unknown substance. Both cases happening here on Gaily Avenue
at parties near campus where the fraternities. Many of the
fraternities are housed here. That's what led to this campus.

Speaker 4 (15:54):
White always the fraternity guys getting blamed.

Speaker 10 (15:56):
Huh, that's what led to this campus wide warning and
alert that was issued by UCLA police following those two
students coming forward.

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Isn't there a substance you can put in a drink
now that can tell you whether there's a drug in end.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Yeah, there's a test you can do.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
Yeah, right, I would test.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
I mean I if you're you know, eighteen nineteen, twenty
twenty one, twenty two, whatever you are in college, I
would test the drinks and don't lose sight of it,
you know, just keep it, hold on to it, Yeah
for sure. Yeah, or better. Yeah, don't drink.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
There's that, but it could be any drink. It doesn't
have to be alcoholic.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Yeah, don't drink anything.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
I should just go to a party, eat, just eat
a lot, don't.

Speaker 10 (16:34):
Drink, warning other students attending social events on or near campus.
According to police, the first victim attended three parties along
Gailea Avenue on Thursday of last week, where they experienced
symptoms they didn't believe were related.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
To alcohol or marijuana.

Speaker 10 (16:47):
The second victim attended a party on the six hundred
block of Gaile Avenue two days later on Saturday, where
they were giving a drink and reported similar symptoms. Police
say the second victim was rushed to the emergency room
for treatment and hospitalized.

Speaker 4 (16:58):
Oh that's horrible, that's serious.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Can you imagine how pissed you would be if something
like that happened to your daughter, I would not stop
looking for the guy that did that.

Speaker 10 (17:09):
Oh I agree for treatment and hospitalized. Both cases are
now under investigation by the police department and students and
staff we spoke to say.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
It's alarming.

Speaker 7 (17:17):
Always be worried of what you drink, if anything, don't drink.

Speaker 4 (17:20):
Out a frat.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
I feel like that's not very trustworthy to begin with.

Speaker 7 (17:23):
I was surprised that those things still happen yet, you know,
because if you live here or work here all the time,
you see this is a friendly campus, a safe campus,
and those things. It surprised me in like in a
bad way.

Speaker 10 (17:38):
Meanwhile, RAIN, which stands for the Rape, Abuse and Incest
National Network, is highlighting tips to help people stay safe
when drinking may be involved, and they include keeping an
eye on your friends, know what you're drinking, try to
avoid large batch drinks like punches that may be spiked,
don't leave a drink unattended or accept drinks from people
you don't trust, and be aware of sudden changes in
the way you feel. If you think you may have

(17:59):
been drawn, tell a friend or call police immediately. UCLA
Police investigating these incidents as aggravated assaults with the use
of a drug. If anyone has information, they're bringers to
contact the department.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
You know, it's really hard to report this stuff because
these guys and girls in college, they're learning where their
limit is with drinks, with alcohol, you know, they're learning
their buzz, and so you could blame yourself for it,
you know, like, oh, man, I've had already three drinks.
I feel kind of woozy. Maybe it's just me, you
know the the I think the instinct is to blame

(18:32):
yourself for it initially, right now, lightweight? Why can't I
handle this? What's going on? And then they don't realize
that they've been drugged.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
Yeah, you know, I just can't imagine it. You know,
it's a thing in college where you sort of do
everything with kind of a reckless abandon You sort of
feel like nothing's going to stick to you, even if
it's not a conscious thing.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
You just do.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
You go, yeah, let's party, have another one shots, everybody,
let's try it. I know, you just have that kind
of thing, and when you add something like a drug
into the mix, it can easily be concealed because everybody's
just so much into the in the fervor a party.

Speaker 1 (19:10):
I don't know if that happened when I went to college.
I never heard of it at.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
All, No nor with mine.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
But I did go to college in the first year
that or second year I think first year that AIDS
came out.

Speaker 4 (19:25):
Oh so there was that was different focus.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Yeah, that was the big talk of you know, the campus,
you know, because nobody knew, you know, how people knew
how you got it, but they don't there's no cure
at all.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
That's scary.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
Times people were dying and it was it was horrible.
But anyway, so if you have a kid that goes
to u c.

Speaker 4 (19:45):
L A.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
And they don't know about this, you know, because sometimes
you know, they're into their studies or they're you know,
this word doesn't get around. Just let them know the
stories around, you know, let them know the stories around.
Maybe you found out at first about a first right
here on KFI and you can tell your son or
your daughter watch out, be careful.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
A lot of crazy is out there, a lot of crazy.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
Do you what do you say to your daughter or
do you let your wife have it mostly?

Speaker 1 (20:12):
Or my wife handles a lot of the these I'm
the king of the superficial talks. Yeah, I can nail
those pretty good, But anything else I hand it off.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yeah, you farm it out to a different department.

Speaker 3 (20:29):
Yes, yeah, I think I might be the same way
if I had a daughter.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
My wife's very good at that stuff and I'm not,
and she does a sensational job doing them. And I
always say, you know again, knock on wood, I got
a beautifully behaved daughter who just turned nineteen, and she
is only well behaved because of my wife. If it

(20:55):
was if it was just me, my daughter would be
a mess.

Speaker 2 (20:59):
Wow, a mess. I don't know if that's true.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
I think it's one hundred because I'm a pushover for everything.
My wife, on the other hand, is no nonsense, can't
get anything past it.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
But you've got a good kid too, Yes.

Speaker 4 (21:13):
Knock on wood, I got it.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
She's not trying to get a lot of stuff past here.

Speaker 7 (21:17):
Now.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
It's I got really, really lucky, and that's what it is.
I know, you know, I know a guy who's an
actor in Hollywood. He did a I don't know, like
fifteen or twenty maybe thirty. Seinfeldts very accomplished actor, and
he's an actor in Hollywood. His younger brother is a

(21:39):
rabbi and his older brother is in New Jersey on
death row for holding up a liquor store and killing
two guys. So in under the same roof, three sons
were raised, a rabbi, an actor, and a kid on
death row. All three raised by with the same food,
the same parents, the same discipline, the same rules, and

(22:02):
they all three are wildly different. So I'm telling you
a lot of it is luck. You know, the brain
chemistry is luck. A lot of it is luck. I
know there's parenting has has something to do with it.
I get that, But a lot of it is the
chemicals in the brain and how they react to the chemicals,
and how they react to what's.

Speaker 4 (22:19):
Going on around them.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
And and I think, you know, having parents at home
means a lot. I get that, but a lot of
it is the chemicals of the brain. You have no
idea what you're going to get. My dad used to
say this that it's that it's luck. A lot of
it's luck. He said.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
The house can be a solid foundation, but once the
kids leave the house, he said, who they fall in with,
who they hang out with, you have no control over that.
The impressions that they have like what they want to
be part of, so you can only do so much
with that. It's interesting, and your point is, it's even
more than that. It's luck when it comes to sort
of the chemical makeup of the kid.

Speaker 4 (22:54):
It's yeah, it absolutely is. It absolutely is.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
And I've know they, I know they have improvement last
you know, thirty forty years when it comes to depression
or OCD or ADD or HDMO or HDOC or whatever
you know.

Speaker 4 (23:08):
All the other letters are.

Speaker 1 (23:09):
But it's still to get the chemicals right in your
brain sometimes takes a lot of work, a lot of work.

Speaker 4 (23:15):
And sometimes you never get there. Sometimes you don't.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
All Right, rely on KFI. Keep an eye on that
storm coming towards Florida. It is going to be an
unbelievable disaster and it's going to all start to happen
tomorrow late tonight the front of that storm.

Speaker 4 (23:30):
There's a store in front of.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
That storm that people aren't talking about that's gonna hit
tonight and that's going to be horrible. And then the
big Hurricane Milton comes in tomorrow and man, is it
going to wipe out a lot of central Florida.

Speaker 6 (23:43):
Look, it's crazy to see the map now and see
that Milton essentially takes up the entirety of the Gulf
of Mexico.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Yes, and you.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
See that storm before it, I mean there's sort of
like a there's a pocket before it. It looks like
a pre storm. It's so big that it's broken almost
into two storms. And it's going to be a disaster,
absolute disaster.

Speaker 8 (24:05):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
Storm's coming to Florida and this is going to be
a deal breaker for a lot of people live in Florida.
A lot of people. We're moving on. I think they'll
be done. I don't think they're into it anymore.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
Maybe you can only rebuild so many times. I mean
at some point you want to go, hey, we're out
of here. That's right, that's right.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
All right.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
Let's talk about this pilot who had a heart attack
leaving from Las Vegas, going to Bakersfield. Husband and wife
and the pilot has a massive heart chest grabber, right,
just a massive heart attack, and he's out.

Speaker 4 (24:47):
And now she's got to land a plane. That's crazy.

Speaker 5 (24:51):
It's a miniary emergency. The pilot of a private plane
has suffered an apparent heart attack and his passenger has
to somehow land plane.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Are you with me?

Speaker 3 (25:01):
Yes?

Speaker 10 (25:02):
Okay, so thanks for you had a little bit of power.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
The plane, a Beachcraft King Air ninety like this, was
en route from Las Vegas to Moderay, California. When the pilot, Wow,
I mean what pressure on this one Craft King Air
ninety like this?

Speaker 4 (25:15):
That unbelievable? Like this, that's incredible that she did that.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
You know, she was able to not only deal with
like her husband dying, but she's got to land the plane.

Speaker 5 (25:29):
Plane, a Beachcraft King Air ninety like this was on
route from Las Vegas to Moderay, California, when the pilot,
Elliott Alper, was stricken. The situation was dire. Air traffic
Control got on the radio with a passenger and directed
her here to meadows Field in Bakersfield, California. They had
to give step by step instructions on how to land

(25:49):
the plane safely. To add to the drama, the passenger
was the wife of the stricken pilot and had zero
flying experience.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
Wow. How about that zero flying experience and you're traveling
with your husband. That's it seems odd though that if
you go in Vegas to Monterey and you get directed
towards Baker's Field. Does seem like that's considerably south of Monterey.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
Weird.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Maybe that's the route you take though you don't fly
over the big mountains to get to Monterey.

Speaker 4 (26:22):
That's possible. Or maybe there was a storm or fire.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
For for some reason. I'm sure some reason.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Why would they fly from Vegas to Monterey and then
land in Bakersfield.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
Maybe there's a bigger runway. I don't know, your house.

Speaker 8 (26:35):
She is looking good. Five thousand, a hundred feet, try
to say level at six, air.

Speaker 5 (26:40):
Traffic control instructed her to change course for the nearest airport.

Speaker 4 (26:44):
Oh, okay, that's what it was.

Speaker 10 (26:45):
We're going to set you up so that as you
level off from your turn, you're going to be straight
in for Bakersfield Airport.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
Is all right?

Speaker 4 (26:53):
Okay?

Speaker 5 (26:54):
Incredibly ivon Canaane Wells landed the plane safely and was unhurt.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
You can what an emotional day for her. Wow, husband
dies next to her. She's got to sit in and
fly the plane for the first time in land land.

Speaker 5 (27:10):
You can see the aircraft doesn't appear to have a
scratch on it.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
Wow, how impressive is this? Particular event. How amazing is
this event? Well, it's to my knowledge unprecedented. I've never
seen it in my entire career.

Speaker 5 (27:23):
The pilot's niece says, Yvonne, you are a hero for
being able to land that plane safely and walk away
safely under so much stress.

Speaker 7 (27:31):
Returned the wings level take a deepress.

Speaker 5 (27:35):
Inside Edition producer Emikitty climbed into a flight simulator and
found out how hard it is to make an emergency landing.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
The ground's coming so fast.

Speaker 5 (27:44):
An amazing testament to that cool headed passenger turned pilot.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Are you with me?

Speaker 4 (27:49):
Yes, that's unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
But you know what also is it's a huge insult
to guys and gals who get their pilot's license and
then talk about it's very tough to land a plane. Yeah,
well this woman did it on her first shut Yeah.
I was thinking the exact under a lot of pressure.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Yeah, because I look at that cockpit, I think there
wouldn't be a chance I'd be able to work any
of this stuff.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
And yet they can talk her.

Speaker 4 (28:13):
Yeah, and they're lucky they were able to talk her
into it.

Speaker 1 (28:15):
You know, if she's up there and the love of
her life, you know, they probably were deeply in love.
He's seventy eight on how old she is. They're lucky
that she didn't just throw it into him out and say, hey,
we're going together. Oh that you know, Wow, that's kind
of a we're going together.

Speaker 8 (28:32):
Dang.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
You know then you had to do that whole thing,
and he'd want you to do it. Yea, yeah, l
you know right right? What? Uh?

Speaker 2 (28:40):
What is she up to? Now? Do you think she's
gonna maybe pursue the flight thing?

Speaker 4 (28:44):
She's in the Air Force.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
Yeah, she's going to be right, sign up for the
air She's the kind of person you want.

Speaker 4 (28:49):
Did you ever see the video online?

Speaker 2 (28:50):
Cars?

Speaker 1 (28:50):
You may have seen this your big YouTube And I
don't know if you're a TikTok guy. Oh yeah, but
you know when you fly, when you go through pilot
school and I don't know if it's West Point or
whatever whatever the higher end of the Navy pilot school is,
or an Air Force pilot. But there's a big ceremony
at the end when you graduate and they reveal to

(29:13):
you what plane you'll be operating. You don't get to pick,
They pick for you.

Speaker 4 (29:18):
Wow.

Speaker 6 (29:18):
And I would be willing to bet that you can
put in requests.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
Well, I think you work on all the planes, and
I think they observe how good you are with each plane. Interesting,
And so there's a big reveal at the end when
you graduate, and then there's a big you know, like
a screen, a projection screen behind you, and they're like,
you know, David Clifford Robertson.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
You'll be flying.

Speaker 1 (29:42):
And then they show an airplane behind you, you know,
an F twenty four, you know, Raptor, or an F
six team or a C one thirty and they all
go crazy, you know, even the guys in the C
one thirty cargo planes are like, yes, that's what I wanted.

Speaker 4 (29:56):
Wanted that thing is that.

Speaker 6 (29:58):
By the way, the US Air Force Pilot School is
at the edge of the Mohammed Desert at the Edwards.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
Okay, all right, And that's where they revealed what plane
they're gonna be flying. And man, the guys that get
the Raptor, you know, the guys that get the fighter jets.

Speaker 6 (30:11):
What's the crap plane they get?

Speaker 4 (30:12):
You're like, oh, come on.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
Yeah, I think it's like a Robinson helicopter, you know,
delivering mail to the to the base.

Speaker 6 (30:20):
Is the one where they got to walk out and
start the propeller manually.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, it's flying with snoopy. That's great. Gott to crank
up the prop. And they're so excited about that, like, yes,
I got the old prop plane.

Speaker 2 (30:38):
You have to be excited.

Speaker 4 (30:39):
Yeah, I think you do.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
I think you do.

Speaker 1 (30:41):
But man, heads off to those guys and gals. Right,
guys and gals nowadays they all fly planes.

Speaker 4 (30:46):
All right, we're live for her. Yeah, it's good for her. Yeah,
and that's great. All right, we're live.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
Did have a nice, happy Hollywood ending tim aside from
the fact that the guy died.

Speaker 4 (30:57):
Look, look, women do everything nowadays.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
