It's k IF. I am sixforty and you're listening to the Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.Hey, I don't know if you know
this, Mark. You don't seemlike a guy who may have ever done
this before. And I might bewrong, and it's not insulting. I
just don't think that you're a SanPedro Long Beach guy. I used to
(00:21):
date somebody who live down there,really, yeah, in Long Beach or
Sam Pedro, sam Pedro really yeah? Wow, maybe I'm wrong. I
mean, so I would head downthere pretty regularly, Yeah, a couple
of times a week. Was shea hostess at the Vagabond Hotel? She
was an athlete? Actually? Really, what kind of sports? I really
don't want to say. It's prettyhigh profile. She's a professional athlete that
(00:44):
we know. Uh, it's justthat you would know the sports sport make
tennis, I mean, it's whatyou'd know is the sport, and it
would just some people would then knowwho it was. Is it ten No,
it's not a guessable sport, that'sit. I think you'd have trouble
guessing it. Foosball, badminton,blind baseball, cards, surfing. No,
(01:14):
but but but she was a pornhole. No sports, because they're all
good guesses. Everybody sports. No, I'm telling you, I just don't
believe you. You'd guess it?Really? Can we keep guessing break dancing,
skateboarding, archery, h pin,the tail on donkey, none of
(01:36):
those are correct? And anyway,so that was that was the extent of
my u when I went down thereregularly seniors gymnastic tour. What's how dare
you senior on the Coop Deville Tour? I'd be proud to be with a
senior gymnast or stripper? Really,yes, sixty five year old stripper?
(01:56):
Well I would, I think Iquestioned some life choices. Maybe that tour
exists. I was, I wasin Milwaukee and the Coupe Deville tour was
coming through, and what is that? It's literally yours strippers. And my
buddy and I said, look,this is not going to be a night
that we're going to really tell alot of people, but we got to
go see this come on. Iwent, yeah, and the star of
(02:19):
the show was a lady named BigRed, and she did not disappoint.
She was big and she was anatural. I'm wondering already why this isn't
a movie that we've the Coop DevilleTour. Yeah, yeah, I probably
should have been huh. But maybebecause there were three guys in the audience
that they think there's no audience forthat. That's possible too. Yeah,
(02:43):
I see, I'm eighty for eightyfor ladies. I don't know. Maybe
that's the new eighty for Brady.But so you were dating a professional athlete,
right, God, and we didn'tcome close to guessing your sport?
No basketball, wnba. I'm justnot gonna I'm not going to entertain anymore
(03:04):
guesses. Yeah, I cannot whatI uh, scuba diving is that a
sport? I don't know. Bunko, no, no, no, none
of that cheesy bingo old Bengo chapold Bengo chick at Saint Mary's in the
(03:27):
basement. That seems like you thatthat Coupe Deville tour that's not real?
Is it? Tim? It was? I don't know. I don't know
if it's called the Coupe Deville Tour, but there was a I was in
I went to school in Bowling Green. I drove to Northwestern to see a
friend of mine, and in Chicagoand in Illinois, you couldn't drink until
you're twenty one. So we droveto Milwaukee, where the drinking age was
(03:50):
eighteen, and there was a therewas a sign that said Big Red is
retiring and and there's some other seniorstrippers that they were that they were offering,
and we went in to see thatto see that what that was all
about. Turns out there was nocover charge. Place wasn't packed, So
(04:12):
I'm guessing there probably isn't you know, enough people going to the movies to
see that didn't quite catch catch awave, right, And I think I
think there was a sadness to itbecause it didn't seem like any of them
started recently. Oh I see,it's like they've started they've been stripping for
thirty, forty or fifty years andhadn't saved enough money to retire. Wow.
(04:34):
Yeah, it gets more depressing bythe second. Oh yeah, no,
there was a there was a radicaland in the same restaurant, restaurant
slash bar, you know, stripbar, there was a guy walking around
with a sombrero on. He washow do you say little person? Nowadays?
Can you use the M word?No? No, no, you
(04:56):
can just say a little person,little person. Okay, he was a
little person, and he was hada sombrero on and the bill of the
sombrero was filled with chips, cornchips, and the middle was salsa.
This is in the same place,the same place. Yeah, And you
would take a chip out of hishat, dip it in the salta and
eat it. And he'd walk aroundto the tables and entertain people with jokes.
(05:17):
Wow. So it's quite a night. There's a lot going on in
that particular establishment that night. Yeah, it didn't disappoint I'll tell you that
it was an Look, I don'tI can't tell you about almost anything I
did that summer or any summer whenI was a kid. I'd be hard
pressed to tell you details. ButI could tell you about ninety things that
happened that night. So I don'tknow. There's some magic in Milwaukee.
(05:44):
Wow. You know it was someplace, and that's where the big convention is
going to be this year. Ithink the Republicans are going to be in
Milwaukee. Everybody wants Wisconsin, andthe Democrats are going to be in Chicago.
And Chicago to Milwaukee's only an hour'sdrive. Yeah, they want that
Midwest yeah, all right, thisis what I'm saying. I don't think
you're involved here, but maybe youare. Maybe I'm mistaken, but this
is a fleet week. Oh sure, and we got an aircraft carrier coming
(06:08):
into Sam Pedro or anything more magnificenttemp or Long Beach for the first time
since twenty eleven. It's been thirteenyears. It's a big deal. Let's
play a largest Memorial Day events Particulafives. Gail Anderson is live as best
Week Gail. Good morning. Oh, Gail is the best man. Gaila
Anderson. She's always got that positiveattitude. I bet I bet she knew
(06:31):
Sam. I bet her and Samwere good friends. Yeah. They seem
like two peas in a pod.Yeah, very well. Sam also very
positive, alway very positive. Sois this. Gail's also very very positive.
Good morning to you both. We'restarting our preview here next to the
battleship Iowa Museum. The parcolata isempty and is quiet, but it won't
(06:55):
be this way for too much longer. As you can see on the Iowa,
she's decorated the flags you don't seeevery day. That's to prepare for
you and the visitors who are coming. Who's coming well among them, this
the USS Carl Vincent, one ofthe largest aircraft carriers in the world,
(07:15):
named in honor of Congressman Carl Vinsonof Georgia. It's a nuclear powered superman.
Man, if you're a congressman andthey named an aircraft carrier after you,
you've raised some money and some awareness. That for that Pentagon, Yeah,
you definitely ot awarded some contracts.That's right, that's right. Good
for him, Good for that dude. Right here comes for fleetweek Charger.
(07:40):
They call it a floating city withmore than five thousand men and women on
board. And then get this,it has ten floors. Several of those
floors are hangars for aircraft. Seventyaircraft, including helicopters and fighter jets now
also headed our way. This onethe US Coast Guard Cutter Torell Horn,
(08:01):
name after Senior Chief Petty Officer TerrellHorn. I think I would have started
with the Coastguard Cutter and then workedmy way up to the air She paid
off the big one too quickly,I think so, because she showed the
aircraft carry it's the biggest ship inthe world, or one of them.
And then there's this also, andthen a raft. Yeah, you know,
I mean in compared, you know, compared, that's a good note.
(08:24):
Yeah, I don't know, Butlook, who am I to tell
Gail Anderson what to do? Yeah, I'm doing it forever. It seems
to be working out for her.Yeah, maybe I should just f off?
Right, Well, there is that, yeah, yeah, possibility.
So December twenty twelve, during alaw enforcement operation against some drug smugglers off
the California we should love to betold to f off by Gail Anderson.
(08:46):
Uh not for Tiico. Wouldn't thatbe something like this mild mannered woman who's
been in news forever everybody likes andyou say something and she turns down and
she goes f off, but thewhole effort. Yeah, I don't think
she's got that move. You don'tthink so? Well, she might have
it, but I don't think she'sI think she's generally you don't know,
or like I do, jail adifferent forever to all of that. This
(09:13):
location will be the spot Fleet weekthis weekend Fleet Week down in sam Pedro
Long Beach. Get out there,brought to you by Fleet I think right,
no week of fleeting. Yeah,get your fleet on this weekend in
San Pedro Go. Look at theone of the biggest navy ships in the
(09:33):
world and aircraft carrier. I don'tI don't think so, I don't know.
I don't think. So you canlook at it, and then if
you try to get on it,I think they shoot you. Oh,
you can go on the USS Iowa. You got to pay a couple of
bucks to get on the US Siowa. Sure, of course, maybe on
the Coast Guard cutter. But don'ttry to get on the aircraft carrier because
(09:54):
they do have orders to shoot andkill. If you try to get on
that aircraft carrier, I think they'dtry to shoot and kill you and they
don't miss. Yeah, right,they're all trained to kill. Yeah,
that's what the that's what the ArmedServices trained you to do, yeah,
is to kill people. Yeah.Well, I mean they train you on
a lot of things, among themis killing people among the things that they
do. Yeah. So don't tryto get on that ship. Yeah,
(10:16):
And don't try to get your boatnext to that aircraft carry either, because
they'll blow that out of the watertoo. Just don't get cute, just
trying not to get cute. Justgo down and have fun, don't get
yeah, don't get crazy down there. That's not the group to get it.
That's right. You're listening to TimConway Junior on demand from KFI AM
six forty. There was, Angel, Are you on top of this pursuit
(10:39):
that happened? It ended on thetwo ten, I think, yeah,
I entered on the two on thesouth side. Yes, yes, yeah,
at first I was. I wastalking about it a little while ago
because it was a crash on thesouthbound side of the two coming up at
York and they're still blocking the tworight lanes. And I just messaged Eleanna
Moreno with NBC four. I thinkshe's an air Bravo four. Okay,
(11:03):
yeah, she said, yeah,she's overhead, and it is the two
right lane southbound two? Is itbetween the two ten and the five?
It is? It's just south ofthe one. What's actually the one thirty
four? Right? Yeah, justsouth of the one thirty four and maybe
maybe a couple a mile and ahalf past the one thirty four. Excellent,
(11:24):
excellent. That's where that company isthat we use sometimes to run a
limousine. That boos limo is overthere. I lovemo best. All right,
thank you. Angel Martinez, who'sin town. She's in Burbank,
she's here tonight. Yeah, that'sgreat. I think dong with that.
You're gonna spend the evening here havingcocktails? What are you gonna know?
Yeah? What are you gonna hitthe road or what does an evening here
(11:46):
in Burbank look like to you?Well, it started with a little pokito
moss. Oh yeah for this,nice choice, and it'll probably end downstairs,
you know for seven o'clock. Thatis sensational. Kitlyn Clark fan.
I love Caitlyn Clark. Yeah,I'm with you. Oh yeah, I'm
with you on that. All right? Maybe are you making a special sandal
(12:07):
for her? I am the CaitlinClark sandals. Like the tongue's poking out,
but it's not because it doesn't havea time, right, that's her
deal, right, I think so, Yeah, she sticks her tongue out
at people. By Caitlyn Clark isin the news and you're a student,
I feel like you're a news pvyschool. Again, we all have to
(12:28):
be people who don't know Caitlin Clarkis. She plays for the Indiana Fever.
She played for Iowa State, andshe had more points in basketball than
any other man or woman or childever to play the game. In college
basketball, you're a student. Ifeel like you're a news pitvy school.
Again, we all have to bethrough up. When we got new jobs,
it was like, let's start over. How is being the new kid
school feel? Right? It feelsgood. I mean, I think just
(12:50):
the excitement and energy around this league, around our team. But at the
same time, I think we're justlearning day by day. That's gonna be
the biggest thing for myself. AndI think continuing a stacktay, whether you
learn one little thing or you learna lot, if you continuing to approve
it is going to be the biggestpart of it for myself. But also,
don't lose the fun of it,like yeah, it's all about Yeah,
that's right. But also don't losethe fun of it, like yeah,
(13:11):
it's all about Yeah, they'll jumpon that. Don't lose the fun
of it, like yeah, it'sall right. So Caitlin Clark Fever,
man, it's taken over. Youknow what's depressing Red Lobster is going out
of business. Red Lobster. Yeah, I did a I read a pretty
lengthy piece about it. It's notjust the shrimp thing. Although really yeah,
(13:33):
the shrimp thing is all you caneat shrimp. Yeah, all you
can eat shrimp illegitimately did hurt thembecause they thought it would be great,
would bring a lot of people throughthe door, and it did. Yeah,
it's just that like it, youknow, like those they call them
lost leaders, where you're giving awaysomething at a loss because people will buy
other stuff at your at your store, at your website or whatever. In
(13:54):
this case, in the restaurant,but people were just coming in. They
were ordering the all you can eatshrimp and that was it, you know,
and that cost them a boatload,but it was a couple of other
things that led to their bankruptcy,their gun Chapter eleven. Now, of
course, but shrimp isn't that expensive, isn't I guess it is if you
know, eat it by the wheelbarrow, you know. And the other thing
(14:16):
is they in a short term dealto get money into the company, they
sold all the land that the restaurantswere on. So, you know,
the obviously if you own all thatland, it costs you money, but
it's an appreciating asset. Typically theysold it all. So they made all
that money when they sold, butnow they're leasing. They made a deal
(14:37):
where they leased the back, soall the restaurants were paying the lease,
so all of a sudden, therestaurants were paying a lot of money out
they were losing money on the shrimpdeal. They actually had another thing where
they're sourcing all their seafood from onecompany, and that then you have no
competitive pricing. Those three things alltogether were the big things. Well,
the company that they were getting theshrimp from is the company that bought Red
(15:01):
Lobster. That's right? Oh?Is that right? Yeah? Yeah?
Oh man, oh man, I'mgonna miss the big red lobster. Yeah,
they closed how many restaurants like youknow, we'll take a quick break
that story. But I think alot of people have a lot of great
memories of the Red Lobster. Youknow, that was kind of an upscale,
sort of graduation, birthday place togo. You know, your mom
(15:24):
and dad couldn't treat that like thatevery weekend. Sure, you know,
you just go for special occasions.Are you going to share some reflections when
we come back? I think so? Okay, So I think God,
I missed the smell of a redlobster. You know, although when I
went there, I was a fishsticks and tartar sauce guy. So I
didn't really experience the the all youcan eat shrimp? Are they fried shrimp
(15:48):
or cold shrimp? Uh? CROs? You know that's crows. You've been
to Red Lobster with you All youcan eat shrimp? Oh, that's a
good question. The fried shrimp.I didn't know if there was you could
get either or or did they eyeballyou and say no to some people,
or it's all you can eat itis based on the manager's opinion, or
they just kept loading them up.And you know the embarrassing people that people
(16:11):
who took lobster and or all youcan eat shrimp home, you know,
so that give me twenty more twentythey watched you pat eighty. I probably
watch it, but probably some dayget out the door. But what's the
I mean, can you just sitthere for nine hours and just eat shrimp?
I think that's all you can eat? And you know, you've seen
those weird lawsuits where somebody said that'sit all you can eat and then they
threw me out after three hours.You know, it's like, yeah,
(16:33):
and maybe some bylaws, but inan eighty shrimp and they said no more.
And I knew there was more.I could see him bringing over to
other tables. You're listening to TimConway too, and you're on demand from
KFI AM six forty. We hada high speed chase that ended up on
the two freeway just south of theone thirty four and north of the five
(16:55):
Freeway. That's a big deal.If you're out in that area, maybe
you're going, Is there a Dodgergame tonight? Maybe I should know that.
I think there's a Dodger game tonight. Is there a Dodger game tonight?
I don't know. Let me uh, let me check it out here.
Let me see Dodgers schedule. Isthat online? I don't think anything
about the Dodgers is online? Yes, Arizona Diamondbacks Dodgers today at seven ten.
(17:15):
Okay, So if you're taking ifyou're gonna be on the two freeway,
I think they have two lanes ofAngel where there are two lanes that
were blocked on the two free one. Yeah, they were blocked, and
then they moved the cars out oflanes. And then it said that they
were blocking the off ramp. Okay, all right, which off ramp the
York Boulevard off ramp. Oh that'sa wild one. That's a great ramp.
(17:37):
Oh, beautiful ram strong ramp.Right at the end of that ramp,
there's a seven to eleven, somefast food places and a gas station.
That's all you need. Yeah,enjoy yourself. But if you're taking
that, A lot of people takethe two freeway. You know, you
come from past the you come fromthe east, and then you jump on
the two South. That's how youget the Dodger Stadium. Or if you're
in Glendale, a burbank, youjump on that too, or Locknata to
(18:00):
get to Dodger Stadium. And that'sis it jammed angel? Is the two
all left up? Yeah, it'sall left up all the way from the
one thirty four. Oh it ismore traffic. Reporters should say all ft
up. But I can't wait untilwe're allowed to really use little I can.
I can't, I really can,you know, but they use it
(18:21):
in other countries in Europe you cansay that word. I think you can
on broadcast. I think you canright on television, Yeah, I think
you can. But here you can. We got to abbreviate it. I
was in Munich, Germany, ona like a one day thing. I
was raining out, so I couldn'treally go touring. Ended up staying in
the room, drank some beer,passed out. Now it's like the middle
(18:42):
of the night. I wake up, it's maybe two thirty in the morning,
and the TV is still on,and I look and the TV is
full on weird. You know,people in later hosen but they're naked.
There's all kinds of weird stuff going. It was a totally different show than
when I was just Slate, moreinteresting. So things change, you're right,
yeah, yeah, Mayban, itis lucier over there. All right,
(19:03):
if you're in Santa Monica, thebeautiful city of Santa Monica, they're
experiencing another crime wave. Bad vibesfor people to live out in Santa Monica,
Monica. Ah, it's the worst. Two people are recovering after what's
being called a random attack near theThird Street Promenade in Santa Monica, and
one of the victims still in criticalcondition. Kick on Newsportina would tell she's
live at the scene with the verylatest Antina. These were all German tourists,
(19:25):
right, yeah, you know.Santa Monica's mayor was actually out to
dinner that night at the same restaurantas these tourists. It was after the
dinner, when they were walking inthis parking structure at Broadway and Fourth that
they were attacked. Luckily, policewere able to respond quickly and they were
able to chase down the suspect.Take a look. He's been identified as
twenty nine year old Larry Sedino.The mayor. Larry's looked like he's had
(19:47):
some rough years. I saw thesuspect. He's got some mileage. He's
been outdoors for a while. Ohyeah, that'll do it. Yeah,
he's only twenty nine. Yeah,but he looks like he's ready for some
time behind bars. You know.He just is tired of living on the
streets. And maybe that's one ofthe reasons people do it. You didn't
go live and they give you awhat do you what do you call?
Three hots and a con Oh yeah, and they could sit in jail,
(20:11):
which is probably safer than being onthe streets of Santa Monica. I don't
know. Maybe twenty nine year oldLarry's Sadino, the mayor, believes he
is homeless. He has a historyof arrests over the last year and was
actually on probation for larceny when thislatest attack happened. How about that?
How about that in Santa Monica whereyou're relying on touris history of arrests over
the last year, and a historya history of arrest not one, not
(20:33):
two, a history of arrests overthe last year, and then on probation
for larceny and was actually on probationfor larcenyw he's walking around Santa Monica,
man, oh man, what's goingon out there? The latest attack happened.
We're waiting to hear if he's goingto be in court today and formerly
charged now on Sunday, police saySadinos stabbed three people, are stabbed two
(20:57):
people whatever and assaulted a third person. Police say it was an unprovoked attack.
The victims were German tourists and onewas in critical condition, but last
report was stable. Leaders in SantaMonica say these randomness. The German on
a tourist visa, right, atourist passport, came to see the beautiful
(21:18):
southern California area, and then bang, what do we doing to him?
Stabbed his ass? Homeless guy gothim. That's not good. We got
the Olympics coming in three and ahalf years. Yeah, we got to
clean it up, got to cleanit up. Leaders in Santa Monica say,
these random attacks are very alarming.I feel for every resident in our
city who needs that feeling of safetyand security. I don't know the circumstances
(21:41):
of this particular individual, but it'snot the mayor talking. I feel for
every resident in our city. Okay, but he's the mayor. Can't he
do anything? Who needs that feelingof safety? It doesn't feel you know,
he's saying it like he's just aresident. He's the mayor. He
can clean it up. Just startarresting these people. Why can't you do
that? My heart goes out toeverybody. If only I could do something,
(22:03):
I would. Now you're the mayor, sir, Yeah you can't.
You're the top official in Santa Monica. You can do something. Just arrest
these people. I feel for everyresident in our city who needs that feeling
of safety and security. I don'tknow the circumstances of this particular individual,
but oftentimes we find out that it'sconnected to either mental health or a substance
abuse. Yeah, I think wegot a bingo bingo on that one.
(22:26):
I think it's both and you right, remember it was just a week ago,
there was another random attack here inSanta Monica public restroom along Ocean wak
oh I remember that. Yeah,there was a woman jogging and the guy
dragged dragged her into a restroom tosexually assault her. And that happened just
south of the Santa Monica Pier.Police say there was a mentally unstable homeless
(22:48):
man who grabbed a woman as shewas jogging. He tried to drag her
into the restroom, but good Samaritansaved her and that man was taken into
custody. Now, as we comeback out here alive, we know Memorial
Days around the corner. The summermonths are when a lot of people come
to try to enjoy our beach communities. So there are people who live and
work here that say something needs tobe done in order to keep people safe.
(23:10):
Yeah, it doesn't look good fora tourism in this area either,
all right, thank you. Yeah, it doesn't look good for tourism at
all. It doesn't look good fora tourism in this area either. All
right, Keano, thank you.Yeah, it looks horrible for tourism.
All right. When we come back, we got a good story for you.
That's all. I can tell youyou're listening to Tim Conway Junior on
demand from kf I am six fortythe Red Lobster. We didn't get to
(23:36):
the story is going out of businesstoo many tons of funds went in there
and wiped them out. Well,but that was part of it all.
You can eat trim that shrimp inYeah, I did sure last day on
Earth. And by the way,I looked it up and you have like
a decent amount of choices. Ithought it was just like you said,
coke shrimp or like shrimp cocktail.You can do a parrot aisle, jumbo
(23:59):
coconut strimp, we sea salt andvinegar, shrimp, linguini, alfredo shrimp,
garlic shrimp, scampy shrimp, scuwer, and popcorn shrimp. That would
all be included for twenty five dollars. Wow, it was twenty five dollars.
Yeah, wow, Well you caneat though, Tim, that's crazy.
That is a lot. That's athat's you know, if you want
(24:19):
people to order it. And yousounded like Forrest Gump there for a second
with the describing all those shrimp thestrip. Yeah, but twenty five dollars
seems like a good price. Icouldn't eat twenty five dollars for the shrimp,
could you? No, Stephane washow many shrimp could you eat?
If I just if I just stuckwith the popcorn shrimp, I could probably
throw down like forty or so forty. Yeah, the little tiny ones.
(24:45):
It looked like seahorses kinda yeah,because like the alfredo, that's like a
meal. There's no way you canhave more exactly, And I think that's
what people stuck to is the easierstuff to eat, because then you can
get your money's worth. How bigare the many shrimps? I think they're
just like the averag, like thesize of your thumb. Yeah, something
like yeah, give or take.Yeah, I don't know. I think
I have a feeling that the ownerwas sweating when he saw some of the
(25:11):
guys and gals come in. Youknow, definitely, I mean a big
chaps, if you'd like to eat, it was a good deal for you.
But but did they send a youknow, can you stay there for
eight hours? I don't know.No. I know that this is something
that historically has had some lawsuits attachedto it, where they say it's all
you can eat, then they cutyou off. But not a Red Lobster.
(25:32):
I'm thinking that they kind of letyou go. It's funny because I
forgot to remember there's an episode ofCurb on the most recent season where they
kick out I forgot his name ofthe show, but JB's move was at
All you can Eat restaurant Leon.Yeah, and he's with Larry and they
kick him out and he goes,you're not allowed to come back here.
You're allowed, but not him.Like you Altay had four plates? Have
(25:56):
you? Have you ever been theall you can eat shrin there? I
never actually did that, No,did you? Were you aware of that
offer? Though I heard about itmore recently because I only went to Red
Lobster like every once in a while. It wasn't okay, like a place
i'd go to often. But yeah, but there's one near you, right
uh in Torrents, I think so, I thinks, and I think there
was one in Manhattan Beach, butI don't think it's there anymore. Like
(26:18):
a while ago, I would thinkthe beach community Red Lobsters would stay in
business longer because people are in shape. You know, you get in,
you get into you know, certainpockets of Fontana and you can get wiped
out in a weekend. You knowthere's some there's some big gals in the
I e. They could wipe youout. My kind of gals by the
(26:40):
way too. Look, if you'regoing to go to and All you can
eat place, I love sitting nextto the people going for Yeah, you
know, people would like to eatand now they have a you can get
a beer there or not. Idon't know. It's a full liquor.
I don't know the liquor license therenot about in the bar like my beer
when I watched people eat shrimp.Yeah, I when you go to a
fay, are you are you?You sit back? Are you next to
(27:03):
the food? And I sit back? But I make a strategic This is
a good question because there are alot of ways to strategize. But sure
you've got to do an intel runwhere you don't actually take anything right,
you're just looking where everything is.Yeah, I mean it's a rookie mistake
to like fall in love with somethingearly and then you don't only run on
the plate. You need a strategy. So you do an intel run.
(27:25):
Then you put your stuff down whereyou want to be i'd suggest back from
the crowd. Then you go inand you grab those premium items first,
the things that really make your topfive lists, they make them. I
writing this down as well, youshould then you supplement that with the other
things. And if you need andthis is an important thing, and some
(27:48):
people with maybe bad balanced may wantto avoid this, but if you need
a second plate, there's no shamein that bringing them both back. Yeah,
I hear. I went to theSizzler. Sizzler wasn't all you could
eat joined for a while. Idon't know if if it still is,
but I was up in the one. I was in Washington, in the
state of Washington. I'll play calledLongview, Washington, and they NATA Sizzler
(28:10):
there and a guy came in andhe said, I'll take the all you
can eat And he was in awheelchair, but he was an electric wheelchair
and he would drive around the buffetbar and I thought, wow, it's
like a drive in for this guy, you know. And he just he'd
load up his plate or his tableand he would sit there and he go
back. And he wouldn't sit ata table. You go in the corner
(28:32):
and just chow the f down.I mean, he wouldn't stop. And
then he'd take, you know,getting the put in a you know,
drive again and drive around the islandagain, you know, picking off tacos
and sure pasta and noodles and allkinds of I don't think he ever touched
the salad. I think that wastoo much you know space. Yeah.
Yeah, well he's got you know, special areas for a big payload on
(28:56):
that thing. Yeah, that's right, that's right. And he wasn't a
shamed. He was like eight hundredpounds. He was in a wheelchair,
not because his you know, becausehe was sick, because his legs said,
no, he's too big for hisframe. Yeah, his legs have
happened. They gave their legs.There's two little white flags on his legs.
They kept waving like that. That'swhat makes America great, man.
(29:18):
That's right. We celebrated here,Biggins. The tons of funds Barlops was
the best restaurant ever. Alex Crocodilenot happy. Multiple Red Lobster locations have
closed in California and nationwide. Thisas the restaurant chain files for bankruptcy.
Okay, let me go back here. This doesn't seem like a guy who
goes out very often. This guyBurlops was the best restaurant ever. I
(29:41):
think it's good. I don't knowif it's the best restaurant ever. Barlops
was the best restaurant ever. Idon't think that guy's gotten out. Well,
that's an opinion informed by emotion.Okay, chase emotion. This as
the restaurant chain files for bankruptcy.Are you surprised that they have gone this
bankruptcy road? I am since thetwenty twenty COVID pandemic like other restaurants.
(30:04):
Thank you, Warren Buffett. Areyou surprised that they went for the bankruptcy?
Yeah. I would have rolled itinto some kind of shell corporation maybe.
Yeah, I am, I am, I am. You're here for
the I Can Eat trip? Iam. Yeah. You worried about them
going bankrupt because of you? Iam? Since the kinds of bankruptcies aren't
there of you say so? That'sright? Are you familiar with All you
(30:29):
Can Eat shrimp? P I amsince twenty COVID pandemic? Like other restaurants,
Red Lobster management saying they've struggled toget customers back into dining at the
restaurants. Red Lobster is a staplefor a lot of people all over the
world. So it's going to bereleased not on all over the world,
but you know, at least inthe United States. In America, desperate
(30:51):
to regain it's pre pandemic popularity,the restaurant chain rolling out all you can
eat deals at discounted prices. That'sthe only thing I'll get here is though
you can eat Trip Their speculation wherethe all you can eat shrimp deal for
roughly twenty dollars, turned out tobe a bust that may have doomed the
already struggling company. Alex believes somepatrons eating so much of the shrimp they
(31:11):
ate into the company's profits. Yeah, they ate the company, There's no
question about it. I mean,they ate the company to death. It
wasn't a bust from the standpoint ofbringing people into the restaurant. The problem
was just that that they ate somuch and didn't order other stuff. They
ate that company into bankruptcy. That'sexactly that was part of it. Yeah,
I mean that you got to beproud of of how fat this country
(31:33):
is where you can eat a companyinto bankrupt Yeah, you're right. We
should. We should. This shouldbe we should celebrate this. That's right.
There should be a camera at theRed Lobster on the buffet. I'd
watch that every night, every night. Oh you can eat tramp. I
feel like that's a really bad lossleader Red Lobster filing Chapter eleven bankruptcy protection
days after it abruptly, closing morethan natty locations stationwide, including more than
(31:56):
half a dozen in California. Ilook what they did there? See that?
Oh, you guys can't see it. It's an audio, but on
the video when they declared bankruptcy,they'd do Chapter eleven and the eleven.
The two ones are made out ofshrimp. That's funny. That's funny.
Red Lobster issuing a statement, thisrestructuring is the best path forward for Red
Lobster. It allows us to addressseveral financial and operational challenges anywhereriage stronger and
(32:22):
refocused on our growth. Okay,it looks like they might survive. They
might survive the you know, theall you can eats. Well, there's
nothing like chapter eleven, you know, get you off the hook with debtors.
But they're three hundred and fifteen millionin dad and they're closing a ton
of restaurants. It's gonna be tough. I think they get fighting some restaurant
trends that are working against them,Like that kind of restaurant is sort of
(32:43):
falling out of face. I didn'tknow that. I didn't either. I
was reading about it the other Yeah, man, I love restaurants. Yeah,
you know, I know it's kindof a dangerous thing to say,
but I do. I love restaurants. Alex is happy so far. This
red lobster a few blocks from sixFlags, Magic Mountain, not getting the
X. Come here every time Igo to six Flags? So what a
guy? Huh? Come here everytime I go to six Flags? And
(33:06):
a day with that guy, sixFlags and little red lobs du on the
way home, got almighty. It'sa day, all right. It's just
the low Enders, man. Theynever ever ceased to amaze you, all
right. Relyve on KFI my Thereyou go. Conway Show on demand on
the iHeartRadio app. Now you canalways hear us live on KFI AM six
(33:28):
forty four to seven pm Monday throughFriday, and anytime on demand on the
iHeart Radio app.
It's k IF. I am sixforty and you're listening to the Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.Hey, I don't know if you know
this, Mark. You don't seemlike a guy who may have ever done
this before. And I might bewrong, and it's not insulting. I
just don't think that you're a SanPedro Long Beach guy. I used to
(00:21):
date somebody who live down there,really, yeah, in Long Beach or
Sam Pedro, sam Pedro really yeah? Wow, maybe I'm wrong. I
mean, so I would head downthere pretty regularly, Yeah, a couple
of times a week. Was shea hostess at the Vagabond Hotel? She
was an athlete? Actually? Really, what kind of sports? I really
don't want to say. It's prettyhigh profile. She's a professional athlete that
(00:44):
we know. Uh, it's justthat you would know the sports sport make
tennis, I mean, it's whatyou'd know is the sport, and it
would just some people would then knowwho it was. Is it ten No,
it's not a guessable sport, that'sit. I think you'd have trouble
guessing it. Foosball, badminton,blind baseball, cards, surfing. No,
(01:14):
but but but she was a pornhole. No sports, because they're all
good guesses. Everybody sports. No, I'm telling you, I just don't
believe you. You'd guess it?Really? Can we keep guessing break dancing,
skateboarding, archery, h pin,the tail on donkey, none of
(01:36):
those are correct? And anyway,so that was that was the extent of
my u when I went down thereregularly seniors gymnastic tour. What's how dare
you senior on the Coop Deville Tour? I'd be proud to be with a
senior gymnast or stripper? Really,yes, sixty five year old stripper?
(01:56):
Well I would, I think Iquestioned some life choices. Maybe that tour
exists. I was, I wasin Milwaukee and the Coupe Deville tour was
coming through, and what is that? It's literally yours strippers. And my
buddy and I said, look,this is not going to be a night
that we're going to really tell alot of people, but we got to
go see this come on. Iwent, yeah, and the star of
(02:19):
the show was a lady named BigRed, and she did not disappoint.
She was big and she was anatural. I'm wondering already why this isn't
a movie that we've the Coop DevilleTour. Yeah, yeah, I probably
should have been huh. But maybebecause there were three guys in the audience
that they think there's no audience forthat. That's possible too. Yeah,
(02:43):
I see, I'm eighty for eightyfor ladies. I don't know. Maybe
that's the new eighty for Brady.But so you were dating a professional athlete,
right, God, and we didn'tcome close to guessing your sport?
No basketball, wnba. I'm justnot gonna I'm not going to entertain anymore
(03:04):
guesses. Yeah, I cannot whatI uh, scuba diving is that a
sport? I don't know. Bunko, no, no, no, none
of that cheesy bingo old Bengo chapold Bengo chick at Saint Mary's in the
(03:27):
basement. That seems like you thatthat Coupe Deville tour that's not real?
Is it? Tim? It was? I don't know. I don't know
if it's called the Coupe Deville Tour, but there was a I was in
I went to school in Bowling Green. I drove to Northwestern to see a
friend of mine, and in Chicagoand in Illinois, you couldn't drink until
you're twenty one. So we droveto Milwaukee, where the drinking age was
(03:50):
eighteen, and there was a therewas a sign that said Big Red is
retiring and and there's some other seniorstrippers that they were that they were offering,
and we went in to see thatto see that what that was all
about. Turns out there was nocover charge. Place wasn't packed, So
(04:12):
I'm guessing there probably isn't you know, enough people going to the movies to
see that didn't quite catch catch awave, right, And I think I
think there was a sadness to itbecause it didn't seem like any of them
started recently. Oh I see,it's like they've started they've been stripping for
thirty, forty or fifty years andhadn't saved enough money to retire. Wow.
(04:34):
Yeah, it gets more depressing bythe second. Oh yeah, no,
there was a there was a radicaland in the same restaurant, restaurant
slash bar, you know, stripbar, there was a guy walking around
with a sombrero on. He washow do you say little person? Nowadays?
Can you use the M word?No? No, no, you
(04:56):
can just say a little person,little person. Okay, he was a
little person, and he was hada sombrero on and the bill of the
sombrero was filled with chips, cornchips, and the middle was salsa.
This is in the same place,the same place. Yeah, And you
would take a chip out of hishat, dip it in the salta and
eat it. And he'd walk aroundto the tables and entertain people with jokes.
(05:17):
Wow. So it's quite a night. There's a lot going on in
that particular establishment that night. Yeah, it didn't disappoint I'll tell you that
it was an Look, I don'tI can't tell you about almost anything I
did that summer or any summer whenI was a kid. I'd be hard
pressed to tell you details. ButI could tell you about ninety things that
happened that night. So I don'tknow. There's some magic in Milwaukee.
(05:44):
Wow. You know it was someplace, and that's where the big convention is
going to be this year. Ithink the Republicans are going to be in
Milwaukee. Everybody wants Wisconsin, andthe Democrats are going to be in Chicago.
And Chicago to Milwaukee's only an hour'sdrive. Yeah, they want that
Midwest yeah, all right, thisis what I'm saying. I don't think
you're involved here, but maybe youare. Maybe I'm mistaken, but this
is a fleet week. Oh sure, and we got an aircraft carrier coming
(06:08):
into Sam Pedro or anything more magnificenttemp or Long Beach for the first time
since twenty eleven. It's been thirteenyears. It's a big deal. Let's
play a largest Memorial Day events Particulafives. Gail Anderson is live as best
Week Gail. Good morning. Oh, Gail is the best man. Gaila
Anderson. She's always got that positiveattitude. I bet I bet she knew
(06:31):
Sam. I bet her and Samwere good friends. Yeah. They seem
like two peas in a pod.Yeah, very well. Sam also very
positive, alway very positive. Sois this. Gail's also very very positive.
Good morning to you both. We'restarting our preview here next to the
battleship Iowa Museum. The parcolata isempty and is quiet, but it won't
(06:55):
be this way for too much longer. As you can see on the Iowa,
she's decorated the flags you don't seeevery day. That's to prepare for
you and the visitors who are coming. Who's coming well among them, this
the USS Carl Vincent, one ofthe largest aircraft carriers in the world,
(07:15):
named in honor of Congressman Carl Vinsonof Georgia. It's a nuclear powered superman.
Man, if you're a congressman andthey named an aircraft carrier after you,
you've raised some money and some awareness. That for that Pentagon, Yeah,
you definitely ot awarded some contracts.That's right, that's right. Good
for him, Good for that dude. Right here comes for fleetweek Charger.
(07:40):
They call it a floating city withmore than five thousand men and women on
board. And then get this,it has ten floors. Several of those
floors are hangars for aircraft. Seventyaircraft, including helicopters and fighter jets now
also headed our way. This onethe US Coast Guard Cutter Torell Horn,
(08:01):
name after Senior Chief Petty Officer TerrellHorn. I think I would have started
with the Coastguard Cutter and then workedmy way up to the air She paid
off the big one too quickly,I think so, because she showed the
aircraft carry it's the biggest ship inthe world, or one of them.
And then there's this also, andthen a raft. Yeah, you know,
I mean in compared, you know, compared, that's a good note.
(08:24):
Yeah, I don't know, Butlook, who am I to tell
Gail Anderson what to do? Yeah, I'm doing it forever. It seems
to be working out for her.Yeah, maybe I should just f off?
Right, Well, there is that, yeah, yeah, possibility.
So December twenty twelve, during alaw enforcement operation against some drug smugglers off
the California we should love to betold to f off by Gail Anderson.
(08:46):
Uh not for Tiico. Wouldn't thatbe something like this mild mannered woman who's
been in news forever everybody likes andyou say something and she turns down and
she goes f off, but thewhole effort. Yeah, I don't think
she's got that move. You don'tthink so? Well, she might have
it, but I don't think she'sI think she's generally you don't know,
or like I do, jail adifferent forever to all of that. This
(09:13):
location will be the spot Fleet weekthis weekend Fleet Week down in sam Pedro
Long Beach. Get out there,brought to you by Fleet I think right,
no week of fleeting. Yeah,get your fleet on this weekend in
San Pedro Go. Look at theone of the biggest navy ships in the
(09:33):
world and aircraft carrier. I don'tI don't think so, I don't know.
I don't think. So you canlook at it, and then if
you try to get on it,I think they shoot you. Oh,
you can go on the USS Iowa. You got to pay a couple of
bucks to get on the US Siowa. Sure, of course, maybe on
the Coast Guard cutter. But don'ttry to get on the aircraft carrier because
(09:54):
they do have orders to shoot andkill. If you try to get on
that aircraft carrier, I think they'dtry to shoot and kill you and they
don't miss. Yeah, right,they're all trained to kill. Yeah,
that's what the that's what the ArmedServices trained you to do, yeah,
is to kill people. Yeah.Well, I mean they train you on
a lot of things, among themis killing people among the things that they
do. Yeah. So don't tryto get on that ship. Yeah,
(10:16):
And don't try to get your boatnext to that aircraft carry either, because
they'll blow that out of the watertoo. Just don't get cute, just
trying not to get cute. Justgo down and have fun, don't get
yeah, don't get crazy down there. That's not the group to get it.
That's right. You're listening to TimConway Junior on demand from KFI AM
six forty. There was, Angel, Are you on top of this pursuit
(10:39):
that happened? It ended on thetwo ten, I think, yeah,
I entered on the two on thesouth side. Yes, yes, yeah,
at first I was. I wastalking about it a little while ago
because it was a crash on thesouthbound side of the two coming up at
York and they're still blocking the tworight lanes. And I just messaged Eleanna
Moreno with NBC four. I thinkshe's an air Bravo four. Okay,
(11:03):
yeah, she said, yeah,she's overhead, and it is the two
right lane southbound two? Is itbetween the two ten and the five?
It is? It's just south ofthe one. What's actually the one thirty
four? Right? Yeah, justsouth of the one thirty four and maybe
maybe a couple a mile and ahalf past the one thirty four. Excellent,
(11:24):
excellent. That's where that company isthat we use sometimes to run a
limousine. That boos limo is overthere. I lovemo best. All right,
thank you. Angel Martinez, who'sin town. She's in Burbank,
she's here tonight. Yeah, that'sgreat. I think dong with that.
You're gonna spend the evening here havingcocktails? What are you gonna know?
Yeah? What are you gonna hitthe road or what does an evening here
(11:46):
in Burbank look like to you?Well, it started with a little pokito
moss. Oh yeah for this,nice choice, and it'll probably end downstairs,
you know for seven o'clock. Thatis sensational. Kitlyn Clark fan.
I love Caitlyn Clark. Yeah,I'm with you. Oh yeah, I'm
with you on that. All right? Maybe are you making a special sandal
(12:07):
for her? I am the CaitlinClark sandals. Like the tongue's poking out,
but it's not because it doesn't havea time, right, that's her
deal, right, I think so, Yeah, she sticks her tongue out
at people. By Caitlyn Clark isin the news and you're a student,
I feel like you're a news pvyschool. Again, we all have to
(12:28):
be people who don't know Caitlin Clarkis. She plays for the Indiana Fever.
She played for Iowa State, andshe had more points in basketball than
any other man or woman or childever to play the game. In college
basketball, you're a student. Ifeel like you're a news pitvy school.
Again, we all have to bethrough up. When we got new jobs,
it was like, let's start over. How is being the new kid
school feel? Right? It feelsgood. I mean, I think just
(12:50):
the excitement and energy around this league, around our team. But at the
same time, I think we're justlearning day by day. That's gonna be
the biggest thing for myself. AndI think continuing a stacktay, whether you
learn one little thing or you learna lot, if you continuing to approve
it is going to be the biggestpart of it for myself. But also,
don't lose the fun of it,like yeah, it's all about Yeah,
that's right. But also don't losethe fun of it, like yeah,
(13:11):
it's all about Yeah, they'll jumpon that. Don't lose the fun
of it, like yeah, it'sall right. So Caitlin Clark Fever,
man, it's taken over. Youknow what's depressing Red Lobster is going out
of business. Red Lobster. Yeah, I did a I read a pretty
lengthy piece about it. It's notjust the shrimp thing. Although really yeah,
(13:33):
the shrimp thing is all you caneat shrimp. Yeah, all you
can eat shrimp illegitimately did hurt thembecause they thought it would be great,
would bring a lot of people throughthe door, and it did. Yeah,
it's just that like it, youknow, like those they call them
lost leaders, where you're giving awaysomething at a loss because people will buy
other stuff at your at your store, at your website or whatever. In
(13:54):
this case, in the restaurant,but people were just coming in. They
were ordering the all you can eatshrimp and that was it, you know,
and that cost them a boatload,but it was a couple of other
things that led to their bankruptcy,their gun Chapter eleven. Now, of
course, but shrimp isn't that expensive, isn't I guess it is if you
know, eat it by the wheelbarrow, you know. And the other thing
(14:16):
is they in a short term dealto get money into the company, they
sold all the land that the restaurantswere on. So, you know,
the obviously if you own all thatland, it costs you money, but
it's an appreciating asset. Typically theysold it all. So they made all
that money when they sold, butnow they're leasing. They made a deal
(14:37):
where they leased the back, soall the restaurants were paying the lease,
so all of a sudden, therestaurants were paying a lot of money out
they were losing money on the shrimpdeal. They actually had another thing where
they're sourcing all their seafood from onecompany, and that then you have no
competitive pricing. Those three things alltogether were the big things. Well,
the company that they were getting theshrimp from is the company that bought Red
(15:01):
Lobster. That's right? Oh?Is that right? Yeah? Yeah?
Oh man, oh man, I'mgonna miss the big red lobster. Yeah,
they closed how many restaurants like youknow, we'll take a quick break
that story. But I think alot of people have a lot of great
memories of the Red Lobster. Youknow, that was kind of an upscale,
sort of graduation, birthday place togo. You know, your mom
(15:24):
and dad couldn't treat that like thatevery weekend. Sure, you know,
you just go for special occasions.Are you going to share some reflections when
we come back? I think so? Okay, So I think God,
I missed the smell of a redlobster. You know, although when I
went there, I was a fishsticks and tartar sauce guy. So I
didn't really experience the the all youcan eat shrimp? Are they fried shrimp
(15:48):
or cold shrimp? Uh? CROs? You know that's crows. You've been
to Red Lobster with you All youcan eat shrimp? Oh, that's a
good question. The fried shrimp.I didn't know if there was you could
get either or or did they eyeballyou and say no to some people,
or it's all you can eat itis based on the manager's opinion, or
they just kept loading them up.And you know the embarrassing people that people
(16:11):
who took lobster and or all youcan eat shrimp home, you know,
so that give me twenty more twentythey watched you pat eighty. I probably
watch it, but probably some dayget out the door. But what's the
I mean, can you just sitthere for nine hours and just eat shrimp?
I think that's all you can eat? And you know, you've seen
those weird lawsuits where somebody said that'sit all you can eat and then they
threw me out after three hours.You know, it's like, yeah,
(16:33):
and maybe some bylaws, but inan eighty shrimp and they said no more.
And I knew there was more.I could see him bringing over to
other tables. You're listening to TimConway too, and you're on demand from
KFI AM six forty. We hada high speed chase that ended up on
the two freeway just south of theone thirty four and north of the five
(16:55):
Freeway. That's a big deal.If you're out in that area, maybe
you're going, Is there a Dodgergame tonight? Maybe I should know that.
I think there's a Dodger game tonight. Is there a Dodger game tonight?
I don't know. Let me uh, let me check it out here.
Let me see Dodgers schedule. Isthat online? I don't think anything
about the Dodgers is online? Yes, Arizona Diamondbacks Dodgers today at seven ten.
(17:15):
Okay, So if you're taking ifyou're gonna be on the two freeway,
I think they have two lanes ofAngel where there are two lanes that
were blocked on the two free one. Yeah, they were blocked, and
then they moved the cars out oflanes. And then it said that they
were blocking the off ramp. Okay, all right, which off ramp the
York Boulevard off ramp. Oh that'sa wild one. That's a great ramp.
(17:37):
Oh, beautiful ram strong ramp.Right at the end of that ramp,
there's a seven to eleven, somefast food places and a gas station.
That's all you need. Yeah,enjoy yourself. But if you're taking
that, A lot of people takethe two freeway. You know, you
come from past the you come fromthe east, and then you jump on
the two South. That's how youget the Dodger Stadium. Or if you're
in Glendale, a burbank, youjump on that too, or Locknata to
(18:00):
get to Dodger Stadium. And that'sis it jammed angel? Is the two
all left up? Yeah, it'sall left up all the way from the
one thirty four. Oh it ismore traffic. Reporters should say all ft
up. But I can't wait untilwe're allowed to really use little I can.
I can't, I really can,you know, but they use it
(18:21):
in other countries in Europe you cansay that word. I think you can
on broadcast. I think you canright on television, Yeah, I think
you can. But here you can. We got to abbreviate it. I
was in Munich, Germany, ona like a one day thing. I
was raining out, so I couldn'treally go touring. Ended up staying in
the room, drank some beer,passed out. Now it's like the middle
(18:42):
of the night. I wake up, it's maybe two thirty in the morning,
and the TV is still on,and I look and the TV is
full on weird. You know,people in later hosen but they're naked.
There's all kinds of weird stuff going. It was a totally different show than
when I was just Slate, moreinteresting. So things change, you're right,
yeah, yeah, Mayban, itis lucier over there. All right,
(19:03):
if you're in Santa Monica, thebeautiful city of Santa Monica, they're
experiencing another crime wave. Bad vibesfor people to live out in Santa Monica,
Monica. Ah, it's the worst. Two people are recovering after what's
being called a random attack near theThird Street Promenade in Santa Monica, and
one of the victims still in criticalcondition. Kick on Newsportina would tell she's
live at the scene with the verylatest Antina. These were all German tourists,
(19:25):
right, yeah, you know.Santa Monica's mayor was actually out to
dinner that night at the same restaurantas these tourists. It was after the
dinner, when they were walking inthis parking structure at Broadway and Fourth that
they were attacked. Luckily, policewere able to respond quickly and they were
able to chase down the suspect.Take a look. He's been identified as
twenty nine year old Larry Sedino.The mayor. Larry's looked like he's had
(19:47):
some rough years. I saw thesuspect. He's got some mileage. He's
been outdoors for a while. Ohyeah, that'll do it. Yeah,
he's only twenty nine. Yeah,but he looks like he's ready for some
time behind bars. You know.He just is tired of living on the
streets. And maybe that's one ofthe reasons people do it. You didn't
go live and they give you awhat do you what do you call?
Three hots and a con Oh yeah, and they could sit in jail,
(20:11):
which is probably safer than being onthe streets of Santa Monica. I don't
know. Maybe twenty nine year oldLarry's Sadino, the mayor, believes he
is homeless. He has a historyof arrests over the last year and was
actually on probation for larceny when thislatest attack happened. How about that?
How about that in Santa Monica whereyou're relying on touris history of arrests over
the last year, and a historya history of arrest not one, not
(20:33):
two, a history of arrests overthe last year, and then on probation
for larceny and was actually on probationfor larcenyw he's walking around Santa Monica,
man, oh man, what's goingon out there? The latest attack happened.
We're waiting to hear if he's goingto be in court today and formerly
charged now on Sunday, police saySadinos stabbed three people, are stabbed two
(20:57):
people whatever and assaulted a third person. Police say it was an unprovoked attack.
The victims were German tourists and onewas in critical condition, but last
report was stable. Leaders in SantaMonica say these randomness. The German on
a tourist visa, right, atourist passport, came to see the beautiful
(21:18):
southern California area, and then bang, what do we doing to him?
Stabbed his ass? Homeless guy gothim. That's not good. We got
the Olympics coming in three and ahalf years. Yeah, we got to
clean it up, got to cleanit up. Leaders in Santa Monica say,
these random attacks are very alarming.I feel for every resident in our
city who needs that feeling of safetyand security. I don't know the circumstances
(21:41):
of this particular individual, but it'snot the mayor talking. I feel for
every resident in our city. Okay, but he's the mayor. Can't he
do anything? Who needs that feelingof safety? It doesn't feel you know,
he's saying it like he's just aresident. He's the mayor. He
can clean it up. Just startarresting these people. Why can't you do
that? My heart goes out toeverybody. If only I could do something,
(22:03):
I would. Now you're the mayor, sir, Yeah you can't.
You're the top official in Santa Monica. You can do something. Just arrest
these people. I feel for everyresident in our city who needs that feeling
of safety and security. I don'tknow the circumstances of this particular individual,
but oftentimes we find out that it'sconnected to either mental health or a substance
abuse. Yeah, I think wegot a bingo bingo on that one.
(22:26):
I think it's both and you right, remember it was just a week ago,
there was another random attack here inSanta Monica public restroom along Ocean wak
oh I remember that. Yeah,there was a woman jogging and the guy
dragged dragged her into a restroom tosexually assault her. And that happened just
south of the Santa Monica Pier.Police say there was a mentally unstable homeless
(22:48):
man who grabbed a woman as shewas jogging. He tried to drag her
into the restroom, but good Samaritansaved her and that man was taken into
custody. Now, as we comeback out here alive, we know Memorial
Days around the corner. The summermonths are when a lot of people come
to try to enjoy our beach communities. So there are people who live and
work here that say something needs tobe done in order to keep people safe.
(23:10):
Yeah, it doesn't look good fora tourism in this area either,
all right, thank you. Yeah, it doesn't look good for tourism at
all. It doesn't look good fora tourism in this area either. All
right, Keano, thank you.Yeah, it looks horrible for tourism.
All right. When we come back, we got a good story for you.
That's all. I can tell youyou're listening to Tim Conway Junior on
demand from kf I am six fortythe Red Lobster. We didn't get to
(23:36):
the story is going out of businesstoo many tons of funds went in there
and wiped them out. Well,but that was part of it all.
You can eat trim that shrimp inYeah, I did sure last day on
Earth. And by the way,I looked it up and you have like
a decent amount of choices. Ithought it was just like you said,
coke shrimp or like shrimp cocktail.You can do a parrot aisle, jumbo
(23:59):
coconut strimp, we sea salt andvinegar, shrimp, linguini, alfredo shrimp,
garlic shrimp, scampy shrimp, scuwer, and popcorn shrimp. That would
all be included for twenty five dollars. Wow, it was twenty five dollars.
Yeah, wow, Well you caneat though, Tim, that's crazy.
That is a lot. That's athat's you know, if you want
(24:19):
people to order it. And yousounded like Forrest Gump there for a second
with the describing all those shrimp thestrip. Yeah, but twenty five dollars
seems like a good price. Icouldn't eat twenty five dollars for the shrimp,
could you? No, Stephane washow many shrimp could you eat?
If I just if I just stuckwith the popcorn shrimp, I could probably
throw down like forty or so forty. Yeah, the little tiny ones.
(24:45):
It looked like seahorses kinda yeah,because like the alfredo, that's like a
meal. There's no way you canhave more exactly, And I think that's
what people stuck to is the easierstuff to eat, because then you can
get your money's worth. How bigare the many shrimps? I think they're
just like the averag, like thesize of your thumb. Yeah, something
like yeah, give or take.Yeah, I don't know. I think
I have a feeling that the ownerwas sweating when he saw some of the
(25:11):
guys and gals come in. Youknow, definitely, I mean a big
chaps, if you'd like to eat, it was a good deal for you.
But but did they send a youknow, can you stay there for
eight hours? I don't know.No. I know that this is something
that historically has had some lawsuits attachedto it, where they say it's all
you can eat, then they cutyou off. But not a Red Lobster.
(25:32):
I'm thinking that they kind of letyou go. It's funny because I
forgot to remember there's an episode ofCurb on the most recent season where they
kick out I forgot his name ofthe show, but JB's move was at
All you can Eat restaurant Leon.Yeah, and he's with Larry and they
kick him out and he goes,you're not allowed to come back here.
You're allowed, but not him.Like you Altay had four plates? Have
(25:56):
you? Have you ever been theall you can eat shrin there? I
never actually did that, No,did you? Were you aware of that
offer? Though I heard about itmore recently because I only went to Red
Lobster like every once in a while. It wasn't okay, like a place
i'd go to often. But yeah, but there's one near you, right
uh in Torrents, I think so, I thinks, and I think there
was one in Manhattan Beach, butI don't think it's there anymore. Like
(26:18):
a while ago, I would thinkthe beach community Red Lobsters would stay in
business longer because people are in shape. You know, you get in,
you get into you know, certainpockets of Fontana and you can get wiped
out in a weekend. You knowthere's some there's some big gals in the
I e. They could wipe youout. My kind of gals by the
(26:40):
way too. Look, if you'regoing to go to and All you can
eat place, I love sitting nextto the people going for Yeah, you
know, people would like to eatand now they have a you can get
a beer there or not. Idon't know. It's a full liquor.
I don't know the liquor license therenot about in the bar like my beer
when I watched people eat shrimp.Yeah, I when you go to a
fay, are you are you?You sit back? Are you next to
(27:03):
the food? And I sit back? But I make a strategic This is
a good question because there are alot of ways to strategize. But sure
you've got to do an intel runwhere you don't actually take anything right,
you're just looking where everything is.Yeah, I mean it's a rookie mistake
to like fall in love with somethingearly and then you don't only run on
the plate. You need a strategy. So you do an intel run.
(27:25):
Then you put your stuff down whereyou want to be i'd suggest back from
the crowd. Then you go inand you grab those premium items first,
the things that really make your topfive lists, they make them. I
writing this down as well, youshould then you supplement that with the other
things. And if you need andthis is an important thing, and some
(27:48):
people with maybe bad balanced may wantto avoid this, but if you need
a second plate, there's no shamein that bringing them both back. Yeah,
I hear. I went to theSizzler. Sizzler wasn't all you could
eat joined for a while. Idon't know if if it still is,
but I was up in the one. I was in Washington, in the
state of Washington. I'll play calledLongview, Washington, and they NATA Sizzler
(28:10):
there and a guy came in andhe said, I'll take the all you
can eat And he was in awheelchair, but he was an electric wheelchair
and he would drive around the buffetbar and I thought, wow, it's
like a drive in for this guy, you know. And he just he'd
load up his plate or his tableand he would sit there and he go
back. And he wouldn't sit ata table. You go in the corner
(28:32):
and just chow the f down.I mean, he wouldn't stop. And
then he'd take, you know,getting the put in a you know,
drive again and drive around the islandagain, you know, picking off tacos
and sure pasta and noodles and allkinds of I don't think he ever touched
the salad. I think that wastoo much you know space. Yeah.
Yeah, well he's got you know, special areas for a big payload on
(28:56):
that thing. Yeah, that's right, that's right. And he wasn't a
shamed. He was like eight hundredpounds. He was in a wheelchair,
not because his you know, becausehe was sick, because his legs said,
no, he's too big for hisframe. Yeah, his legs have
happened. They gave their legs.There's two little white flags on his legs.
They kept waving like that. That'swhat makes America great, man.
(29:18):
That's right. We celebrated here,Biggins. The tons of funds Barlops was
the best restaurant ever. Alex Crocodilenot happy. Multiple Red Lobster locations have
closed in California and nationwide. Thisas the restaurant chain files for bankruptcy.
Okay, let me go back here. This doesn't seem like a guy who
goes out very often. This guyBurlops was the best restaurant ever. I
(29:41):
think it's good. I don't knowif it's the best restaurant ever. Barlops
was the best restaurant ever. Idon't think that guy's gotten out. Well,
that's an opinion informed by emotion.Okay, chase emotion. This as
the restaurant chain files for bankruptcy.Are you surprised that they have gone this
bankruptcy road? I am since thetwenty twenty COVID pandemic like other restaurants.
(30:04):
Thank you, Warren Buffett. Areyou surprised that they went for the bankruptcy?
Yeah. I would have rolled itinto some kind of shell corporation maybe.
Yeah, I am, I am, I am. You're here for
the I Can Eat trip? Iam. Yeah. You worried about them
going bankrupt because of you? Iam? Since the kinds of bankruptcies aren't
there of you say so? That'sright? Are you familiar with All you
(30:29):
Can Eat shrimp? P I amsince twenty COVID pandemic? Like other restaurants,
Red Lobster management saying they've struggled toget customers back into dining at the
restaurants. Red Lobster is a staplefor a lot of people all over the
world. So it's going to bereleased not on all over the world,
but you know, at least inthe United States. In America, desperate
(30:51):
to regain it's pre pandemic popularity,the restaurant chain rolling out all you can
eat deals at discounted prices. That'sthe only thing I'll get here is though
you can eat Trip Their speculation wherethe all you can eat shrimp deal for
roughly twenty dollars, turned out tobe a bust that may have doomed the
already struggling company. Alex believes somepatrons eating so much of the shrimp they
(31:11):
ate into the company's profits. Yeah, they ate the company, There's no
question about it. I mean,they ate the company to death. It
wasn't a bust from the standpoint ofbringing people into the restaurant. The problem
was just that that they ate somuch and didn't order other stuff. They
ate that company into bankruptcy. That'sexactly that was part of it. Yeah,
I mean that you got to beproud of of how fat this country
(31:33):
is where you can eat a companyinto bankrupt Yeah, you're right. We
should. We should. This shouldbe we should celebrate this. That's right.
There should be a camera at theRed Lobster on the buffet. I'd
watch that every night, every night. Oh you can eat tramp. I
feel like that's a really bad lossleader Red Lobster filing Chapter eleven bankruptcy protection
days after it abruptly, closing morethan natty locations stationwide, including more than
(31:56):
half a dozen in California. Ilook what they did there? See that?
Oh, you guys can't see it. It's an audio, but on
the video when they declared bankruptcy,they'd do Chapter eleven and the eleven.
The two ones are made out ofshrimp. That's funny. That's funny.
Red Lobster issuing a statement, thisrestructuring is the best path forward for Red
Lobster. It allows us to addressseveral financial and operational challenges anywhereriage stronger and
(32:22):
refocused on our growth. Okay,it looks like they might survive. They
might survive the you know, theall you can eats. Well, there's
nothing like chapter eleven, you know, get you off the hook with debtors.
But they're three hundred and fifteen millionin dad and they're closing a ton
of restaurants. It's gonna be tough. I think they get fighting some restaurant
trends that are working against them,Like that kind of restaurant is sort of
(32:43):
falling out of face. I didn'tknow that. I didn't either. I
was reading about it the other Yeah, man, I love restaurants. Yeah,
you know, I know it's kindof a dangerous thing to say,
but I do. I love restaurants. Alex is happy so far. This
