It's k if I Am six forty and you're listening
to the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app
k IF I Am six forty. It's Conway Show. I
love Halloween, Kids love Halloween, Bellio loves Halloween. And there
(00:20):
are a lot of great Halloween songs out there, but
I don't think any of them can come close to
the Monster Mash. For some reason, that was always like
growing up. That was always like the cool song to
listen to the Monster Mash.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Let's see if this was in here, Yes, let's crank
this up here.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
I was looking in the.
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Love late light with my eyes beIN any sight. My
mom stood from his lab began rise, and suddenly, to
my surprise, he did the monks to Ma.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
It wasn't the graveyards.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
It got on in a flame. He did the.
Speaker 6 (01:14):
Monster mash from my love Tory in the Castle, Release
to the Mass, the Pidroom of Vampire's Feece. The goulshall
came from the humble a boat to get a jolt
from my electrodes.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
They did the monks to It was a graveyards. It
got on in a flag. They did the monks.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah, the Monster Mesh Shine Halloween tonight. Be careful around
those kids. Can't say that enough. Timmy Cats joins us
from Fox Sports five seventy am KLAC Dodger Station.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Nice to see you, buddy. Good to see you. Conwaddie.
Speaker 7 (01:58):
Let's call you guys dress up for Halloween. Yeah, Now,
are you a member of the Beach Boys or are
you the professor from Gilligan's Island.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I'm a major d at Islands.
Speaker 7 (02:07):
Ah, that was my third choice. You know, I worked
the Islands for six weeks. I didn't know that back
in the nineties at the one in Burbank here, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
With Kamala Harns. Did she worked there? She was at
McDonald McDonald's. Okay, buddy, I know you like to get political,
so I threw that in. So what a great night
that was watching the Dodgers with you and Colin in
that room with your what is it the bamboost the
Victor bricks, bamboostick bamboos stick. We brought it in for
(02:35):
good luck or in the postseason, but to be in
you guys are still exciting about the Dodgers. You know,
when you work in sports, you get burned out.
Speaker 7 (02:43):
Yeah, but this run that they've been on you can't
help it get excited. I mean, Colin and I you know,
are in the studio every single day for six months.
And it started when the Dodgers played the Padres at
two o'clock in the morning in Soul, South Korea, back
in March. And last night we were looking at each
other for the last time and it's you know, the
oxstruck midnight when we signed off.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Last night was.
Speaker 7 (03:02):
Halloween and here we are literally on six seven months later,
and the season is just and it was kind of
fun just to kind of put a button on this
season and you know, see what happens at the end.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
But it's it's a big commitment for the players and
management and the owners and you know, and and all
the trainers and the you know, all the guys who
keep the you know, the doctors and the keep everyone
keeps these players healthy. But it's also a huge commitment
for fans. You know, it's a big I mean, we
we figured out it's about nine hundred hours a year
if you go to games and you watch them on TV,
(03:34):
and you know you're to and from going to and
from the game, there's another couple hours you invest about
nine hundred bucks nine hundred hours watching this team, and
that's it. That's a that's twenty four hours a day,
that's an entire month. That's a big deal. That's a
you know, to invest that much time and have not
pay off at the end, it pisses people off.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
I think that's one of the beauties of baseball that
draws so many people to them. You can sit there
and as a family watch a team over and over
every single night.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
You get to know these players. You start to root
for these players. They're there.
Speaker 7 (04:00):
You're there when they're up and when they're down, they're struggling.
They're over for twenty, they're you know, fifteen for twenty,
hitting fifty home runs. You're there every single night with them,
kind of living through them vicariously throughout the course of
one hundred and sixty two games, so you get attached
to them.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
I watched the final two winnings with my daughter. She
was on the on one couch. I was on the
other couch, and I went crazy when they won it.
And I didn't know this, but my daughter was filming
me or videotaping me when they won.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Okay, yeah, and so i'll oh gone viral. Oh. I
didn't post it.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Oh it's I feel like I look like an a
hole because I go crazy. Yeah, I mean I'm screaming
like a child. Yeah, but that's what it brings out
in you after investing all those hours and there's a
payoff at the end.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
It's fun to see the everyday fan get excited about
this and get so emotional. But then you see the
casual fans, who I'm not saying you're a casual I
guess I don't care people say, but those who all
of a sudden, Hey, the Dodgers in the World Series.
I I grew up with that player, I got with
Steve fen Sacks is my favorite, Steve Garvey. And they
start remembering their use and all of a sudden, they're
now rooting for the Dodgers. And you see a city
get excited and buzzed and everything that's happening with the
(05:04):
election in politics and division, we could at least all
come together right ry the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
But I can tell you twenty five great nights that
I've had, I mean really great nights, and then another
one hundred and fifty knights that were good.
Speaker 7 (05:16):
But I can tell you great great nights that I
have because of the La Dodgers. I mean, none better
than Game one of the World Series. I will always
remember being out there a couple of Fridays ago when
Freddy Freeman hit the Grand Slam. I mean, people talk
about eighty eight and Gibson. I will till my death
be talking about that Friday night, being at Game one
of the twenty twenty four World Series where I was
when Freddie Freeman hit the Grand Slam. The three dudes
(05:38):
behind me that I was chest bumping at high fiving
who I don't know their names or I never met
him again afterwards, but we had something common.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
But you know, if the Dodgers ended up losing this
World Series, nobody would talk about that Freddy Freeman home run,
and if you did, it would be bad luck. It's like, oh, yeah,
you mean the year they won three and then lost
four in a row, Like, oh, yeah, I guess that
was well.
Speaker 7 (05:57):
How about Shoeyozani's fifty to fifty season. It's like, oh,
that's great, he did that individually, But what did he
do in October? That's right, he struggled at October. Oh,
I know, they won despite him going two for nineteen
in the World Series.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Max Mounsey also had a rough series.
Speaker 7 (06:11):
Yeah, Max had I don't think he got a hit
in the World series. I think Max Munsey, you and
me all the same amount of hits. On October I.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Saw David Vasse interviewing Max Mounsey and I thought, man,
who's interviewing who? Because they both got about the same
amount of hits. That's true.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
But to see David Vasse in that in that locker
room with those guys, and the way they treat him,
the respect they have for him, and the questions he
could ask them that no other reporter could ask, and
without getting chippy with the player, they answer it candidly,
and he gets the best out.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Of these guys.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
And I mean Max Max Munsey really loves that kid,
David vass He always seeks him out after the game
and talks to him first. He's the guy that said,
you know, to David Vassy, I think after they won,
they beat the Meds, or they beat the maybe San Diego,
why are you so effing dry?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And he's the whole effort on the air.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Oh yeah, these guys aren't afraid to let it fly now,
and they they love David Vassa and they love you,
and I think that you, Colin and David Vassay should
all get a piece of how much money the Dodgers
made this year.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
You guys all deserved like a check for like ten grands.
I appreciate that.
Speaker 7 (07:21):
I just like to take a ring. I mean, if
those people, I would love just to get a ring,
even if you have to pay for it.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
You should get a ring. I'd prefer not to pay
for it.
Speaker 7 (07:30):
I prefer not to see a deduction every paycheck come
out of that, you know, from from a ring. But
you know, if they'd be so nice to buy me
a ring, I would be so high.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Whenever i'm i'm you know, down, or just you know,
I need a good laugh. I always think of the
line you had. It must have been two or three
years ago where Sharon Bello is always very nice to
remember the first day that I started here, and she
has a little party as a as a a remembrance
or an annual you know, for the day you started here, well,
(07:59):
the first day of the show. Yeah, and that's the
annual party that we have and she brings in a
cake or whatever. And then Petros and Money got pissed
that nobody remembers the day they started, nobody celebrates it
and I and I said to him, I said, well,
it's all our producer, does it, Sharon Belli O. And
then they turned to you and said, Kate, you should
do this, And you had the greatest line ever. You
(08:21):
said to them, wait a minute. You want me to
go out with my own money and buy you guys
a cake?
Speaker 8 (08:28):
He has a point.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Who does say.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
That's one of the greatest lines ever, dude, than it
really really is.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
It's just the truth. I'm not going to go spend
time and my money to buy you a birthday cake.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Yeah, Now you spend when the Dodgers are on, especially
in the playoffs, that's a ten hour day for you easily.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
Well during the postseason, Steve Sacks and I take over
the mornings and so we do six to nine am,
and so usually I'm here from five o'clock in the
morning until first pitch is usually at five o'clock. So
those are twelve hour days Monday through Friday and weekends.
Conway And where are you tomorrow for the parade and
they celebrate tomorrow, I'll be at Dodger Stadium. David Vasse
will be on one of the buses. Kirsten Watson from
Sports in LA. We're going to a little tag team action.
(09:05):
She'll be on another bus. We're gonna have live coverage
beginning at nine thirty in the morning, all the way
through the parade, the celebration at Dodger Stadium and afterwards
as well. So what are the odds though, that I
start here at KFI and you know, a huge Dodger fan.
Whether some people believe or not, I don't care. But
you know, my first game was probably before you were born,
nineteen sixty nine, nineteen seventy and and you know, the
(09:29):
Dodgers have not been on KFI since the seventies early seventies,
and the very first World Series that they win in
a regular season without COVID and everything is on KFI.
That's very cool. It's wild. Yeah, that's very cool. It's
what are the odds of that? Where listeners upset that
you were preempted on over the radio, Hey, I.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Don't think so. I think they.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I think everyone's listening or watching the game anyway. Yeah,
you know, so, I don't know. I don't think it matters,
but have but half of the Dodgers on KFI was
really cool. So when does it? Everything start tomorrow morning?
Our cover starts at nine thirty in the morning. Parade
starts at eleven from City Hall and goes to Fifth
and Flower, and then they'll take the buses up to
Dodger Stadium. We'll after twelve o'clock they'll have the whole
(10:11):
ceremony on top of the stage in center field at
Dodger Stadium. And then when do they do the is
it their their their exit? I know, exit interviews, extra interviews.
Speaker 7 (10:20):
Yeah, Baseball doesn't do it like NBA does that where
the players sit down with the head coach and the
GM and like, this is what we want you to
work on for next okay, this is what you want
to get better at. Who do you think is going
to be gone next year? Oh, tay Oscar Hernandez could
be gone. He's a free agent, the left fielder he helped.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
I hope they keep him.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
He's going to cash you and he bet on himself
one year deal with the Dodgers. Produced he may leave.
Jack Flerti's a free agent. We got to start last night.
We'll see if he leaves.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
You know what, But this Dodger team next year, one
of the I think it was Derek Jeter pointed out,
this team's gonna be better next year.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
They will because all the pitchers that are hurt, Blayton Kershaw,
Gavin Stone, Tony Gonson, all these guys that didn't help
in twenty four. We'll be back in twenty five. By
the way, did you know that garakole yesterday?
Speaker 2 (11:01):
It was a different picture. He was just a different pitch.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
That's right in the fifth inning, you know he had
he had a no hitter going to the fifth and
he allowed five runs.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
He was just a different pitchures a different picture.
Speaker 5 (11:09):
He was.

twelve foot disco ball skeleton, a Halloween stunner.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
This is Steve.
Speaker 11 (14:09):
It's a giant disco ball skeleton. This Halloween decoration is
ready for Studio fifty four. Last year, Ali Spignola created
the twelve foot work of art that she named Steve
out of five hundred thousand tiny square mirror tiles.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Oh my god, a half a million mirrors, okay.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Four ninety nine left to go.
Speaker 11 (14:32):
It took seventy hours over the course of several days
to cover every inch. The YouTuber, with two million followers,
is known for her creative DIY projects.
Speaker 12 (14:41):
The Internet seems to love it, and I've even run
into people in person that are like, oh.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
My goodness, that was you.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Everybody's talking about this thing on social media, this disco ball.
Speaker 11 (14:49):
Of course, the statue didn't come without criticism.
Speaker 12 (14:53):
Lots of people were concerned that I would start fires
to the point where I had to bring on chemical
Kim another U who's in the science realm, to explain
that all of the light is scattered in a bunch
of different directions as opposed to concentrated into one spot.
So he's good and safe.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
He's good to go, all right.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
A police officer eaten up by an inflatable runaway pumpkin.
These things are getting bigger and bigger every year. You know,
it used to be just a three foot inflatable. Now
they're thirty feet, forty feet eighty feet.
Speaker 13 (15:24):
Bay Village, Ohio, where Officer Grant Williams and his partner
received a very unusual call. A giant inflatable pumpkin blew
off a nearby lawn in high winds and was blocking
traffic while Officer Williams approached, only to be swallowed up
by the runaway cord before he finally managed to move
it out of the way. I listen to this. Williams
is no stranger to unusual calls. He went viral last
(15:45):
Thanksgiving after being chased by a pair of turkeys.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I don't know what it is with me.
Speaker 14 (15:50):
We'll see if Santa comes to home here on Christmas time,
but I'd say this probably ranks up there as far
as far as funny moments in this career.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
All right, there you go.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
And at the White House, the Biden's are hosting a
trick or treat. I guess it's an annual Halloween event.
Speaker 15 (16:05):
New video this morning captures the Biden's final trick or
treat events.
Speaker 11 (16:10):
The first, Lady Jill Biden, came dressed that's her in
the panda suit and owed to the panda cubs.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
It recently arrived at the National Zoo from China.
Speaker 15 (16:17):
Thousands of DC area students, military connected children, and neighborhood
families stop buy for candy and Halloween books, and.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
For the first time since nineteen thirty eight, kids in
Iowa will be tricker treating.
Speaker 16 (16:32):
For the first time since nineteen thirty eight, kids in
Iowa's capital will go trigger treating on Halloween.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
First time since nineteen nearly one hundred years.
Speaker 16 (16:41):
Let me explain. In Des Moines, Iowa, and its surrounding suburbs,
kids are used to trick or treating a day early
on what's known as Beggars Night. This year, however, Beggars
Night has been rescheduled a Thursday, October thirty first, due
to heavy rain and thunderstorms expected the night before the
tradition of holding Beggars Knight on October thirtieth began in
nineteen thirty eight, when a former city parks director encouraged
(17:02):
trick or treating the day before Halloween to reduce vandalism
and violence while fostering stay fun for kids. That same year,
des Moin's police recorded over five hundred incidents of vandalism
on Halloween Day, including fires and brickstone by teens.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, these did that in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
It was the night before Halloween where they'd burned down
the city of Detroit.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
That was always a lot of fun.
Speaker 16 (17:22):
Over time, Beggars Knight evolved into a family oriented event
held from six to eight pm, with children telling jokes
or riddles in exchange for candy, but the change this
year has stirred some debate among families. Despite the intense
weather forecast, did you know Halloween traditions vary by region
in the US?
Speaker 2 (17:37):
I didn't know that. I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
All right, let's check the weather real quick here. I'll
tell you what it is for the San Fernando Valley
for the night. For trigger treaders out there, it's going
to be oh it's going to get down to forty
nine degrees. Going to be chilly here, forty nine degrees
not until later. Trigger treating time seven eight nine pm
fifty eight fifty six fifty five degrees. That's the San
(18:02):
Fernando Valley. If you're out perhaps in Irvine in Orange County,
it'll be around sixty to the low sixties, sixty one
to fifty nine fifty eight degrees in Orange County for
trigger treaters. Perhaps you live in the Big Bear area
and you go now trigger treating, it's going to be
in the high thirties, low forties to high thirties tonight
(18:26):
for trigger treating.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
So get a sweater, get a jacket.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
It's going to be freezing if you're long the coast
tonight for trigger treating, fifty nine fifty seven to fifty
six fifty five degrees, the high fifties along the coast.
That's say, if there's anything else here, Oh, Lancaster out
in the high desert for trigger treating tonight, fifty four
fifty two forty nine, going to be chili out in
(18:53):
the Lancaster Palmdale area for all you trigger treaters, and
as anymore, I think that's it. Yeah, that's about it,
all right, So enjoy yourself, but please, please, please please
be careful with the kids. Every year we do a
story and it's a horrible story. Let's not do it
tomorrow about kids getting hit on Halloween.
Speaker 9 (19:16):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
A great music, fella, do you pick that music today?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
I have, Oh man, so perfect for Halloween. Oh what
a great day, beautiful weather. We're done with the heat.
Heat's over. Not gonna have nineties hundreds. I think it's done.
So Halloween tonight, Dodgers Tomorrow, it's gonna be great. Dodgers, Dodgers, Dodgers,
(19:48):
the final out last night, Dodgers win the World Series.
Speaker 17 (19:53):
Try and keep things alive for the Yankees. And this
is downstairs. There's top of the order labor toys and
Verdugo can reach. Dave Roberts given directions to his outfielders,
saying and a miss one by one, struck and in
(20:24):
two on Duco. The Dodgers a strike away from a championship,
from a proper celebration.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Start depend the sage in us.
Speaker 12 (20:43):
You're Dodgers, Heavysers.
Speaker 17 (21:22):
Where a comeback for the Ages from down five to
nothing to win at seven six in five games. In
this clash of the Titans, the Dodgers over the Yankees,
and Walker Buller of all people, who is questionable even
to make the postseason roster down the stretch comes on
(21:45):
two days after he starts Game three and save's Game five.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
There you go, the La Dodgers. I'm gonna miss getting
in the car because I get nervous watching the Dodgers,
and I like the listener Brick Monday. So I get
in the car and I drive around La. I drive
out to Valencia or I don't know, maybe out to
sant Anita, and I like listening to it in the
car while I'm driving. And that's over until next year
(22:11):
and I'll miss that. But man, was that a great
run San Diego? Then the Mets, then the Yankees to
beat both teams in New York, to fly into New
York and beat the Mets, fly into New York and
beat the Yankees. How great is that the Dodgers left
(22:32):
New York. A lot of people are still pissed to
the Dodgers left and for the Dodgers to come back
to New York beat the Mets, then beat the Yankees. Man,
is that a big, huge victory, morally, physically, every which
way you possibly could look at it. LA dominated New York,
(22:53):
both teams, both teams. Wipe them out, Just wipe them out.
So the big party is tomorrow. There's gonna be a
parade in downtown Los Angeles and then a big celebration

was invited. I'm going, so I will be there with
you tomorrow at Dodgers Stadium. Not sure where we're sitting
(23:13):
or we're you know, where we're doing anything, But I'll
be there tomorrow at Dodger Stadium sitting.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
So yeah, exactly look for me.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I'll look for you, and we'll we'll, I don't know,
we'll yell ding dong at each other is something who knows.
But tomorrow Dodger Stadium prayed first, and then a big
celebration at Dodger Stadium starting around twelve twelve thirty. Get
your tickets, get parking, get there early. I'll see you there.
Dodgers win, Dodgers win.
Speaker 9 (23:39):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from
KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Tom My Scheumps the set.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
The world series is over, Dodgers win, and tonight is Halloween.
Tomorrow is the big Dodger celebration. So very busy in
Los Angeles. We'll keep you covered up to date on everything,
so keep it here on KFI. George Nori, Ghost of Ghosts,
his big ghost story filled show is tonight starting at
(24:08):
ten o'clock. Moe Kelly comes up next and he'll have
a recap of his party last night that went really well,
very well attended, a lot of people dressed up, really cool.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Deal.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Lot going on here at KFI. Lot going on, all right.
Starbucks is in the news. What are they telling their
employees that Starbucks?
Speaker 18 (24:30):
Starbucks issuing an ultimatum to its remote workers, saying, yeah,
you're going to be back in the office at least
three days a week. We're not talking about Barista's here,
We're talking about the corporate crowd. And according to a
memo seen by Bloomberg, there's some teeth to this. Starbucks
is also telling its workers if you're not back in
the office three days a week, you could be fired.
Speaker 9 (24:50):
Now.
Speaker 18 (24:51):
To be sure, Starbucks isn't alone in this, there's a
lot of big employers in corporate America right now. I
want to see people filling cubicles again. Dell Technologies, this
is one of them. Most of Wall Street is insisting
that their folks return to work. So this is going around,
and in fact Fortune is reporting that this is a
blessing in disguise for a number of large employers who
(25:11):
would like to see their payrolls reduced a little bit.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Yep, time to get back to work.
Speaker 18 (25:15):
Kids, well spet remote workers who don't want to come
back to work are saying adios, And it turns out
some employers are saying, yeah, that's not a big problem.
The issue that I'm having with this, though related to Starbucks,
is the fact that it's not quite an even playing
field when we talk about the rank and file crowd
versus the boss. Now, in this case, we're talking about
the new CEO, Brian Nickel, and he lives right down
(25:38):
here in Newport Beach, but every day he commutes to
the Seattle headquarters via a luxury corporate jet. That's a
one thousand mile commute. Okay, life's good if you can
be the CEO. But this is another example of a
company that's more than happy to accommodate the living needs
of its boss, but when it comes to the subordinates,
(26:00):
forget about it. They have to make their own way
in the world.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Okay, well, there's nothing wrong with that. The guy worked
his ass off to become the boss, and they treat
bosses differently than they treat employees. That's just the basic nature,
and it's the way it always has been, it's the
way it always will be.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
The boss gets treated better than the employees.
Speaker 18 (26:20):
They're the boss, and this just raises questions about leading
by example. Another issue that comes up that's right along
these same lines is the fact that every CEO of
an S and P five hundred company when they retire
can look forward to a fat pension.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Yes, because they're the boss and the CEO they get
treated better. You don't like it, then work your ass
off and be a boss or CEO and you'll enjoy
all the perks that come along with that.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
All right.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Another Starbucks story here, what's going on with the milk?
Speaker 19 (26:50):
Non dairy milk is now free at Starbucks. The coffee
chain says it will no longer charge an extra fee
for non dairy milk and drinks starting November seven.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
All right, November seventh, the big day. People, can you know,
stop getting the regular milk. Maybe you're lactose intolerant and
you're farting up, you know, the shuttle whatever kind of
you know van you're in with all your other coworkers.
Now you can get the non dairy milk for free.
Speaker 19 (27:17):
The company says the change will make it easier for
customers to make their orders just as they like it.
Starbucks says non dairy milk is the second most common
order alteration by customers, right behind a shot of espresso.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
All right, one more Starbucks story here. Olive oil infused drinks.
Speaker 14 (27:37):
All right, Starbucks dumping it's oil.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Olive oil infuse coffee.
Speaker 9 (27:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 18 (27:41):
And what makes this remarkable on a number of levels
is the fact that this was introduced less than a
year ago, so great fanfare. The chain had said that
these so called Oliato drinks that were indeed olive oil
infused would be a game changer for Starbucks. Customers thought, yeah,
I don't think so, not least because some said not
(28:02):
that it doesn't just cause stomach problems, but some serious
diarrhea can ensue. In fact, nutrition to say, yeah, it's
not a big surprise. It's olive oil. For goodness sake.
Now officially getting rid of the Oliato line is part
of the new CEO, Brian Nichols goal of simplifying Starbucks's menu,
but this is also a significant retreat from a product
(28:22):
that his predecessor said would be something that Starbucks could
hang its hat on. The chief marketing officer at the
time had called the Oliato drinks one of the biggest
product launches for Starbucks in decades. It didn't turn out
that way.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Okay, So Starbucks concentrating this week on.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Hope you're not eating diarrhea.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
If you're lactose intolerant, you get the non dairy milk
for free. And they're getting rid of the diarrhea infused drinks.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I guess it's olive oil. Have you tried it? Have
you tried?
Speaker 8 (28:58):
I drink one almost on the daily, and I that
love it.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
That's insane.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
It doesn't they're getting rid of.
Speaker 8 (29:08):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
I don't need to have like two grips on each
side after I drink one of these things.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
In fact, I think that that's outrageous.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
It's never even happened so it's a delicious drink, and
I'm sad to hear that it's going away.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
It's going away.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Do you still have the five point harness seatbelt on
your toilet?
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Or if you get rid of that, it's time to
get rid of it.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Time to get rid of the five point harness?
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Yeah, make you get into the olive and fused drink?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
What what? What kind of craziness where it was going
on with you that day?
Speaker 8 (29:41):
What was going on in your life the first time?
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah, you're like, I know a lot of people say
it caused diarrhea. I'll take it.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
Oh, it causes diarrhea. Let's just see if they're right.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Let's se if you compet it.
Speaker 8 (29:54):
Yeah, let's see if we can beat it. Let's get back.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
What's your drink? How do you order? Let's say you're
at Starbucks. Welcome to Starbucks, and I help.
Speaker 8 (30:02):
Him give me one of those olive oil numbers.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Ma'am, we don't sell that crap anymore. Can you please
tell us what we want? They're holding up the line this,
I'm outraged.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
What are you kidding, ma'am? Ma'am. We're calling the cops.
Irvine cops are on their way get out, Get out.
That's your loads are. Oh that's wild. What are you
gonna do? You're gonna bring your own olive oil?
Speaker 8 (30:30):
I was thinking about it. Don't do it, poor, put
it to your coffee in the drive throat that.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
I looked it up to see like what kind of
olive oil they use, and it's a cold pressed organic
olive oil.
Speaker 8 (30:43):
And so I bought some the other day.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Oh my god, cold pressed olive oil.
Speaker 5 (30:51):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Can you taste it in the drink?
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Yeah, it has a taste of olive oil. I mean,
it tastes really good. It's it's not it's not like,
you know, you're focas or anything sweet like that.
Speaker 8 (31:02):
It has a kind of like a robust taste. But
it's good. It's totally different than They're.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Also going to lose the name of the drink, I
know if you know that? To what, Timmy, No, the
name of the drink is gone. The Crazy Traffic Lady
drink is no longer on the menu. Lay all right,
Angel Martinez man, who would have guessed this? Angel Martinez
is the only one drinking that CORC.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I love it, all right.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
There was an earthquake up in Oregon, a big one.
Six point zero. That's a big deal. Happened a couple
of days ago.
Speaker 14 (31:36):
It went for today as six point zero magnitude quake
off the Oregon Coast. This happened in the past few hours.
It was recorded about one hundred and eighty miles west
of Cusp Bay, right at one point fifteen. So far,
there's no reports of damage or injuries, and the quake
is really too small to generate a tsunami. But she
'all would just say this is a good reminder to
stay actively prepared.
Speaker 10 (31:57):
It's one of those nice little earthquake here in the Northwest.
It reminds us that we live in earthquake country, and
then we need to be prepared for the big one,
the eight point zero, the nine point zero that may
someday occur all the way for Vancouver Island down to
northern California.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
That's gonna be a big one. It'll be a big one,
all right.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
We've got Dodgers tomorrow all day with the parade starting
in the morning and then the big celebration at Dodger
Stadium starting at twelve thirty.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Bellue was at twelve thirty I believe Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Yes, yeah, screaming for the other room twelve thirty tomorrow
and that'll go on for I don't know, a couple
hours at Dodger Stadium, Dodgers Stadium. You need tickets though,
and you also need parking to get to the big
Dodger event tomorrow. So it's the Los Angeles Dodgers. They
completed a five game series they called the Gentleman's Sweep
(32:48):
four to one. And now the big party is tomorrow
the parade, and Wednesday is designing pig say yeah the
parade and then the big celebration at the State So
it'll be a really cool deal tomorrow. Halloween Tonight, it's

listen to the Monster Mash.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Let's see if this was in here, Yes, let's crank

Speaker 3 (00:48):

got on in a flag. They did the monks.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah, the Monster Mesh Shine Halloween tonight. Be careful around

from Fox Sports five seventy am KLAC Dodger Station.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Nice to see you, buddy. Good to see you. Conwaddie.
Speaker 7 (01:58):
Let's call you guys dress up for Halloween. Yeah, Now,
are you a member of the Beach Boys or are
you the professor from Gilligan's Island.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I'm a major d at Islands.
Speaker 7 (02:07):
Ah, that was my third choice. You know, I worked
the Islands for six weeks. I didn't know that back
in the nineties at the one in Burbank here, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
With Kamala Harns. Did she worked there? She was at
McDonald McDonald's. Okay, buddy, I know you like to get political,
so I threw that in. So what a great night
that was watching the Dodgers with you and Colin in
that room with your what is it the bamboost the
Victor bricks, bamboostick bamboos stick. We brought it in for
(02:35):
good luck or in the postseason, but to be in
you guys are still exciting about the Dodgers. You know,
when you work in sports, you get burned out.
Speaker 7 (02:43):
Yeah, but this run that they've been on you can't
help it get excited. I mean, Colin and I you know,
are in the studio every single day for six months.
And it started when the Dodgers played the Padres at
two o'clock in the morning in Soul, South Korea, back
in March. And last night we were looking at each
other for the last time and it's you know, the
oxstruck midnight when we signed off.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Last night was.
Speaker 7 (03:02):
Halloween and here we are literally on six seven months later,
and the season is just and it was kind of
fun just to kind of put a button on this
season and you know, see what happens at the end.
Speaker 1 (03:11):
But it's it's a big commitment for the players and
management and the owners and you know, and and all
the trainers and the you know, all the guys who
keep the you know, the doctors and the keep everyone
keeps these players healthy. But it's also a huge commitment
for fans. You know, it's a big I mean, we
we figured out it's about nine hundred hours a year
if you go to games and you watch them on TV,
(03:34):
and you know you're to and from going to and
from the game, there's another couple hours you invest about
nine hundred bucks nine hundred hours watching this team, and
that's it. That's a that's twenty four hours a day,
that's an entire month. That's a big deal. That's a
you know, to invest that much time and have not
pay off at the end, it pisses people off.
Speaker 7 (03:51):
I think that's one of the beauties of baseball that
draws so many people to them. You can sit there
and as a family watch a team over and over
every single night.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
You get to know these players. You start to root
for these players. They're there.
Speaker 7 (04:00):
You're there when they're up and when they're down, they're struggling.
They're over for twenty, they're you know, fifteen for twenty,
hitting fifty home runs. You're there every single night with them,
kind of living through them vicariously throughout the course of
one hundred and sixty two games, so you get attached
to them.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
I watched the final two winnings with my daughter. She
was on the on one couch. I was on the
other couch, and I went crazy when they won it.
And I didn't know this, but my daughter was filming
me or videotaping me when they won.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Okay, yeah, and so i'll oh gone viral. Oh. I
didn't post it.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Oh it's I feel like I look like an a
hole because I go crazy. Yeah, I mean I'm screaming
like a child. Yeah, but that's what it brings out
in you after investing all those hours and there's a
payoff at the end.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
It's fun to see the everyday fan get excited about
this and get so emotional. But then you see the
casual fans, who I'm not saying you're a casual I
guess I don't care people say, but those who all
of a sudden, Hey, the Dodgers in the World Series.
I I grew up with that player, I got with
Steve fen Sacks is my favorite, Steve Garvey. And they
start remembering their use and all of a sudden, they're
now rooting for the Dodgers. And you see a city
get excited and buzzed and everything that's happening with the
(05:04):
election in politics and division, we could at least all
come together right ry the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
But I can tell you twenty five great nights that
I've had, I mean really great nights, and then another
one hundred and fifty knights that were good.
Speaker 7 (05:16):
But I can tell you great great nights that I
have because of the La Dodgers. I mean, none better
than Game one of the World Series. I will always
remember being out there a couple of Fridays ago when
Freddy Freeman hit the Grand Slam. I mean, people talk
about eighty eight and Gibson. I will till my death
be talking about that Friday night, being at Game one
of the twenty twenty four World Series where I was
when Freddie Freeman hit the Grand Slam. The three dudes
(05:38):
behind me that I was chest bumping at high fiving
who I don't know their names or I never met
him again afterwards, but we had something common.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
But you know, if the Dodgers ended up losing this
World Series, nobody would talk about that Freddy Freeman home run,
and if you did, it would be bad luck. It's like, oh, yeah,
you mean the year they won three and then lost
four in a row, Like, oh, yeah, I guess that
was well.
Speaker 7 (05:57):
How about Shoeyozani's fifty to fifty season. It's like, oh,
that's great, he did that individually, But what did he
do in October? That's right, he struggled at October. Oh,
I know, they won despite him going two for nineteen
in the World Series.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Max Mounsey also had a rough series.
Speaker 7 (06:11):
Yeah, Max had I don't think he got a hit
in the World series. I think Max Munsey, you and
me all the same amount of hits. On October I.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Saw David Vasse interviewing Max Mounsey and I thought, man,
who's interviewing who? Because they both got about the same
amount of hits. That's true.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
But to see David Vasse in that in that locker
room with those guys, and the way they treat him,
the respect they have for him, and the questions he
could ask them that no other reporter could ask, and
without getting chippy with the player, they answer it candidly,
and he gets the best out.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Of these guys.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
And I mean Max Max Munsey really loves that kid,
David vass He always seeks him out after the game
and talks to him first. He's the guy that said,
you know, to David Vassy, I think after they won,
they beat the Meds, or they beat the maybe San Diego,
why are you so effing dry?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
And he's the whole effort on the air.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Oh yeah, these guys aren't afraid to let it fly now,
and they they love David Vassa and they love you,
and I think that you, Colin and David Vassay should
all get a piece of how much money the Dodgers
made this year.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
You guys all deserved like a check for like ten grands.
I appreciate that.
Speaker 7 (07:21):
I just like to take a ring. I mean, if
those people, I would love just to get a ring,
even if you have to pay for it.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
You should get a ring. I'd prefer not to pay
for it.
Speaker 7 (07:30):
I prefer not to see a deduction every paycheck come
out of that, you know, from from a ring. But
you know, if they'd be so nice to buy me
a ring, I would be so high.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Whenever i'm i'm you know, down, or just you know,
I need a good laugh. I always think of the
line you had. It must have been two or three
years ago where Sharon Bello is always very nice to
remember the first day that I started here, and she
has a little party as a as a a remembrance
or an annual you know, for the day you started here, well,
(07:59):
the first day of the show. Yeah, and that's the
annual party that we have and she brings in a
cake or whatever. And then Petros and Money got pissed
that nobody remembers the day they started, nobody celebrates it
and I and I said to him, I said, well,
it's all our producer, does it, Sharon Belli O. And
then they turned to you and said, Kate, you should
do this, And you had the greatest line ever. You
(08:21):
said to them, wait a minute. You want me to
go out with my own money and buy you guys
a cake?
Speaker 8 (08:28):
He has a point.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Who does say.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
That's one of the greatest lines ever, dude, than it
really really is.
Speaker 7 (08:34):
It's just the truth. I'm not going to go spend
time and my money to buy you a birthday cake.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
Yeah, Now you spend when the Dodgers are on, especially
in the playoffs, that's a ten hour day for you easily.
Speaker 7 (08:43):
Well during the postseason, Steve Sacks and I take over
the mornings and so we do six to nine am,
and so usually I'm here from five o'clock in the
morning until first pitch is usually at five o'clock. So
those are twelve hour days Monday through Friday and weekends.
Conway And where are you tomorrow for the parade and
they celebrate tomorrow, I'll be at Dodger Stadium. David Vasse
will be on one of the buses. Kirsten Watson from
Sports in LA. We're going to a little tag team action.
(09:05):
She'll be on another bus. We're gonna have live coverage
beginning at nine thirty in the morning, all the way
through the parade, the celebration at Dodger Stadium and afterwards
as well. So what are the odds though, that I
start here at KFI and you know, a huge Dodger fan.
Whether some people believe or not, I don't care. But
you know, my first game was probably before you were born,
nineteen sixty nine, nineteen seventy and and you know, the
(09:29):
Dodgers have not been on KFI since the seventies early seventies,
and the very first World Series that they win in
a regular season without COVID and everything is on KFI.
That's very cool. It's wild. Yeah, that's very cool. It's
what are the odds of that? Where listeners upset that
you were preempted on over the radio, Hey, I.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Don't think so. I think they.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
I think everyone's listening or watching the game anyway. Yeah,
you know, so, I don't know. I don't think it matters,
but have but half of the Dodgers on KFI was
really cool. So when does it? Everything start tomorrow morning?
Our cover starts at nine thirty in the morning. Parade
starts at eleven from City Hall and goes to Fifth
and Flower, and then they'll take the buses up to
Dodger Stadium. We'll after twelve o'clock they'll have the whole
(10:11):
ceremony on top of the stage in center field at
Dodger Stadium. And then when do they do the is
it their their their exit? I know, exit interviews, extra interviews.
Speaker 7 (10:20):
Yeah, Baseball doesn't do it like NBA does that where
the players sit down with the head coach and the
GM and like, this is what we want you to
work on for next okay, this is what you want
to get better at. Who do you think is going
to be gone next year? Oh, tay Oscar Hernandez could
be gone. He's a free agent, the left fielder he helped.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
I hope they keep him.
Speaker 7 (10:37):
He's going to cash you and he bet on himself
one year deal with the Dodgers. Produced he may leave.
Jack Flerti's a free agent. We got to start last night.
We'll see if he leaves.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
You know what, But this Dodger team next year, one
of the I think it was Derek Jeter pointed out,
this team's gonna be better next year.
Speaker 7 (10:51):
They will because all the pitchers that are hurt, Blayton Kershaw,
Gavin Stone, Tony Gonson, all these guys that didn't help
in twenty four. We'll be back in twenty five. By
the way, did you know that garakole yesterday?
Speaker 2 (11:01):
It was a different picture. He was just a different pitch.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
That's right in the fifth inning, you know he had
he had a no hitter going to the fifth and

you here. Oh, by the way, ghost to Ghost is tonight,
isn't that tonight on George Norris Show. So tonight on
George Norri Ghost to Ghosts, a lot of great ghost
stories tonight on George Norris Show at ten o'clock. Right
(14:01):
here on KFI AM six forty. All right, here's a
twelve foot disco ball skeleton, a Halloween stunner.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
This is Steve.
Speaker 11 (14:09):
It's a giant disco ball skeleton. This Halloween decoration is
ready for Studio fifty four. Last year, Ali Spignola created
the twelve foot work of art that she named Steve
out of five hundred thousand tiny square mirror tiles.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Oh my god, a half a million mirrors, okay.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Four ninety nine left to go.
Speaker 11 (14:32):
It took seventy hours over the course of several days
to cover every inch. The YouTuber, with two million followers,
is known for her creative DIY projects.
Speaker 12 (14:41):
The Internet seems to love it, and I've even run
into people in person that are like, oh.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
My goodness, that was you.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Everybody's talking about this thing on social media, this disco ball.
Speaker 11 (14:49):
Of course, the statue didn't come without criticism.
Speaker 12 (14:53):
Lots of people were concerned that I would start fires
to the point where I had to bring on chemical
Kim another U who's in the science realm, to explain
that all of the light is scattered in a bunch
of different directions as opposed to concentrated into one spot.
So he's good and safe.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
He's good to go, all right.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
A police officer eaten up by an inflatable runaway pumpkin.
These things are getting bigger and bigger every year. You know,
it used to be just a three foot inflatable. Now
they're thirty feet, forty feet eighty feet.
Speaker 13 (15:24):
Bay Village, Ohio, where Officer Grant Williams and his partner
received a very unusual call. A giant inflatable pumpkin blew
off a nearby lawn in high winds and was blocking
traffic while Officer Williams approached, only to be swallowed up
by the runaway cord before he finally managed to move
it out of the way. I listen to this. Williams
is no stranger to unusual calls. He went viral last
(15:45):
Thanksgiving after being chased by a pair of turkeys.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
I don't know what it is with me.
Speaker 14 (15:50):
We'll see if Santa comes to home here on Christmas time,
but I'd say this probably ranks up there as far
as far as funny moments in this career.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
All right, there you go.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
And at the White House, the Biden's are hosting a
trick or treat. I guess it's an annual Halloween event.
Speaker 15 (16:05):
New video this morning captures the Biden's final trick or
treat events.
Speaker 11 (16:10):
The first, Lady Jill Biden, came dressed that's her in
the panda suit and owed to the panda cubs.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
It recently arrived at the National Zoo from China.
Speaker 15 (16:17):
Thousands of DC area students, military connected children, and neighborhood
families stop buy for candy and Halloween books, and.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
For the first time since nineteen thirty eight, kids in
Iowa will be tricker treating.
Speaker 16 (16:32):
For the first time since nineteen thirty eight, kids in
Iowa's capital will go trigger treating on Halloween.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
First time since nineteen nearly one hundred years.
Speaker 16 (16:41):
Let me explain. In Des Moines, Iowa, and its surrounding suburbs,
kids are used to trick or treating a day early
on what's known as Beggars Night. This year, however, Beggars
Night has been rescheduled a Thursday, October thirty first, due
to heavy rain and thunderstorms expected the night before the
tradition of holding Beggars Knight on October thirtieth began in
nineteen thirty eight, when a former city parks director encouraged
(17:02):
trick or treating the day before Halloween to reduce vandalism
and violence while fostering stay fun for kids. That same year,
des Moin's police recorded over five hundred incidents of vandalism
on Halloween Day, including fires and brickstone by teens.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, these did that in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
It was the night before Halloween where they'd burned down
the city of Detroit.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
That was always a lot of fun.
Speaker 16 (17:22):
Over time, Beggars Knight evolved into a family oriented event
held from six to eight pm, with children telling jokes
or riddles in exchange for candy, but the change this
year has stirred some debate among families. Despite the intense
weather forecast, did you know Halloween traditions vary by region
in the US?
Speaker 2 (17:37):
I didn't know that. I didn't know that.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
All right, let's check the weather real quick here. I'll
tell you what it is for the San Fernando Valley
for the night. For trigger treaders out there, it's going
to be oh it's going to get down to forty
nine degrees. Going to be chilly here, forty nine degrees
not until later. Trigger treating time seven eight nine pm
fifty eight fifty six fifty five degrees. That's the San
(18:02):
Fernando Valley. If you're out perhaps in Irvine in Orange County,
it'll be around sixty to the low sixties, sixty one
to fifty nine fifty eight degrees in Orange County for
trigger treaters. Perhaps you live in the Big Bear area
and you go now trigger treating, it's going to be
in the high thirties, low forties to high thirties tonight
(18:26):
for trigger treating.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
So get a sweater, get a jacket.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
It's going to be freezing if you're long the coast
tonight for trigger treating, fifty nine fifty seven to fifty
six fifty five degrees, the high fifties along the coast.
That's say, if there's anything else here, Oh, Lancaster out
in the high desert for trigger treating tonight, fifty four
fifty two forty nine, going to be chili out in
(18:53):
the Lancaster Palmdale area for all you trigger treaters, and
as anymore, I think that's it. Yeah, that's about it,
all right, So enjoy yourself, but please, please, please please
be careful with the kids. Every year we do a
story and it's a horrible story. Let's not do it
tomorrow about kids getting hit on Halloween.
Speaker 9 (19:16):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
A great music, fella, do you pick that music today?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
I have, Oh man, so perfect for Halloween. Oh what
a great day, beautiful weather. We're done with the heat.
Heat's over. Not gonna have nineties hundreds. I think it's done.
So Halloween tonight, Dodgers Tomorrow, it's gonna be great. Dodgers, Dodgers, Dodgers,
(19:48):
the final out last night, Dodgers win the World Series.
Speaker 17 (19:53):
Try and keep things alive for the Yankees. And this
is downstairs. There's top of the order labor toys and
Verdugo can reach. Dave Roberts given directions to his outfielders,
saying and a miss one by one, struck and in
(20:24):
two on Duco. The Dodgers a strike away from a championship,
from a proper celebration.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Start depend the sage in us.
Speaker 12 (20:43):
You're Dodgers, Heavysers.
Speaker 17 (21:22):
Where a comeback for the Ages from down five to
nothing to win at seven six in five games. In
this clash of the Titans, the Dodgers over the Yankees,
and Walker Buller of all people, who is questionable even
to make the postseason roster down the stretch comes on
(21:45):
two days after he starts Game three and save's Game five.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
There you go, the La Dodgers. I'm gonna miss getting
in the car because I get nervous watching the Dodgers,
and I like the listener Brick Monday. So I get
in the car and I drive around La. I drive
out to Valencia or I don't know, maybe out to
sant Anita, and I like listening to it in the
car while I'm driving. And that's over until next year
(22:11):
and I'll miss that. But man, was that a great
run San Diego? Then the Mets, then the Yankees to
beat both teams in New York, to fly into New
York and beat the Mets, fly into New York and
beat the Yankees. How great is that the Dodgers left
(22:32):
New York. A lot of people are still pissed to
the Dodgers left and for the Dodgers to come back
to New York beat the Mets, then beat the Yankees. Man,
is that a big, huge victory, morally, physically, every which
way you possibly could look at it. LA dominated New York,
(22:53):
both teams, both teams. Wipe them out, Just wipe them out.
So the big party is tomorrow. There's gonna be a
parade in downtown Los Angeles and then a big celebration
at Dodger Stadium. And I just found out that I
was invited. I'm going, so I will be there with
you tomorrow at Dodgers Stadium. Not sure where we're sitting
(23:13):
or we're you know, where we're doing anything, But I'll
be there tomorrow at Dodger Stadium sitting.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
So yeah, exactly look for me.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
I'll look for you, and we'll we'll, I don't know,
we'll yell ding dong at each other is something who knows.
But tomorrow Dodger Stadium prayed first, and then a big
celebration at Dodger Stadium starting around twelve twelve thirty. Get
your tickets, get parking, get there early. I'll see you there.
Dodgers win, Dodgers win.
Speaker 9 (23:39):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from
KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Tom My Scheumps the set.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
The world series is over, Dodgers win, and tonight is Halloween.
Tomorrow is the big Dodger celebration. So very busy in
Los Angeles. We'll keep you covered up to date on everything,
so keep it here on KFI. George Nori, Ghost of Ghosts,
his big ghost story filled show is tonight starting at
(24:08):
ten o'clock. Moe Kelly comes up next and he'll have
a recap of his party last night that went really well,
very well attended, a lot of people dressed up, really cool.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
Deal.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Lot going on here at KFI. Lot going on, all right.
Starbucks is in the news. What are they telling their
employees that Starbucks?
Speaker 18 (24:30):
Starbucks issuing an ultimatum to its remote workers, saying, yeah,
you're going to be back in the office at least
three days a week. We're not talking about Barista's here,
We're talking about the corporate crowd. And according to a
memo seen by Bloomberg, there's some teeth to this. Starbucks
is also telling its workers if you're not back in
the office three days a week, you could be fired.
Speaker 9 (24:50):
Now.
Speaker 18 (24:51):
To be sure, Starbucks isn't alone in this, there's a
lot of big employers in corporate America right now. I
want to see people filling cubicles again. Dell Technologies, this
is one of them. Most of Wall Street is insisting
that their folks return to work. So this is going around,
and in fact Fortune is reporting that this is a
blessing in disguise for a number of large employers who
(25:11):
would like to see their payrolls reduced a little bit.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Yep, time to get back to work.
Speaker 18 (25:15):
Kids, well spet remote workers who don't want to come
back to work are saying adios, And it turns out
some employers are saying, yeah, that's not a big problem.
The issue that I'm having with this, though related to Starbucks,
is the fact that it's not quite an even playing
field when we talk about the rank and file crowd
versus the boss. Now, in this case, we're talking about
the new CEO, Brian Nickel, and he lives right down
(25:38):
here in Newport Beach, but every day he commutes to
the Seattle headquarters via a luxury corporate jet. That's a
one thousand mile commute. Okay, life's good if you can
be the CEO. But this is another example of a
company that's more than happy to accommodate the living needs
of its boss, but when it comes to the subordinates,
(26:00):
forget about it. They have to make their own way
in the world.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
Okay, well, there's nothing wrong with that. The guy worked
his ass off to become the boss, and they treat
bosses differently than they treat employees. That's just the basic nature,
and it's the way it always has been, it's the
way it always will be.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
The boss gets treated better than the employees.
Speaker 18 (26:20):
They're the boss, and this just raises questions about leading
by example. Another issue that comes up that's right along
these same lines is the fact that every CEO of
an S and P five hundred company when they retire
can look forward to a fat pension.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Yes, because they're the boss and the CEO they get
treated better. You don't like it, then work your ass
off and be a boss or CEO and you'll enjoy
all the perks that come along with that.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
All right.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Another Starbucks story here, what's going on with the milk?
Speaker 19 (26:50):
Non dairy milk is now free at Starbucks. The coffee
chain says it will no longer charge an extra fee
for non dairy milk and drinks starting November seven.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
All right, November seventh, the big day. People, can you know,
stop getting the regular milk. Maybe you're lactose intolerant and
you're farting up, you know, the shuttle whatever kind of
you know van you're in with all your other coworkers.
Now you can get the non dairy milk for free.
Speaker 19 (27:17):
The company says the change will make it easier for
customers to make their orders just as they like it.
Starbucks says non dairy milk is the second most common
order alteration by customers, right behind a shot of espresso.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
All right, one more Starbucks story here. Olive oil infused drinks.
Speaker 14 (27:37):
All right, Starbucks dumping it's oil.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
Olive oil infuse coffee.
Speaker 9 (27:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 18 (27:41):
And what makes this remarkable on a number of levels
is the fact that this was introduced less than a
year ago, so great fanfare. The chain had said that
these so called Oliato drinks that were indeed olive oil
infused would be a game changer for Starbucks. Customers thought, yeah,
I don't think so, not least because some said not
(28:02):
that it doesn't just cause stomach problems, but some serious
diarrhea can ensue. In fact, nutrition to say, yeah, it's
not a big surprise. It's olive oil. For goodness sake.
Now officially getting rid of the Oliato line is part
of the new CEO, Brian Nichols goal of simplifying Starbucks's menu,
but this is also a significant retreat from a product
(28:22):
that his predecessor said would be something that Starbucks could
hang its hat on. The chief marketing officer at the
time had called the Oliato drinks one of the biggest
product launches for Starbucks in decades. It didn't turn out
that way.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Okay, So Starbucks concentrating this week on.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Hope you're not eating diarrhea.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
If you're lactose intolerant, you get the non dairy milk
for free. And they're getting rid of the diarrhea infused drinks.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
I guess it's olive oil. Have you tried it? Have
you tried?
Speaker 8 (28:58):
I drink one almost on the daily, and I that
love it.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
That's insane.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
It doesn't they're getting rid of.
Speaker 8 (29:08):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
I don't need to have like two grips on each
side after I drink one of these things.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
In fact, I think that that's outrageous.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
It's never even happened so it's a delicious drink, and
I'm sad to hear that it's going away.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
It's going away.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Do you still have the five point harness seatbelt on
your toilet?
Speaker 8 (29:26):
Or if you get rid of that, it's time to
get rid of it.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Time to get rid of the five point harness?
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Yeah, make you get into the olive and fused drink?
Speaker 2 (29:38):
What what? What kind of craziness where it was going
on with you that day?
Speaker 8 (29:41):
What was going on in your life the first time?
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah, you're like, I know a lot of people say
it caused diarrhea. I'll take it.
Speaker 8 (29:50):
Oh, it causes diarrhea. Let's just see if they're right.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
Let's se if you compet it.
Speaker 8 (29:54):
Yeah, let's see if we can beat it. Let's get back.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
What's your drink? How do you order? Let's say you're
at Starbucks. Welcome to Starbucks, and I help.
Speaker 8 (30:02):
Him give me one of those olive oil numbers.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
Ma'am, we don't sell that crap anymore. Can you please
tell us what we want? They're holding up the line this,
I'm outraged.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
What are you kidding, ma'am? Ma'am. We're calling the cops.
Irvine cops are on their way get out, Get out.
That's your loads are. Oh that's wild. What are you
gonna do? You're gonna bring your own olive oil?
Speaker 8 (30:30):
I was thinking about it. Don't do it, poor, put
it to your coffee in the drive throat that.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
I looked it up to see like what kind of
olive oil they use, and it's a cold pressed organic
olive oil.
Speaker 8 (30:43):
And so I bought some the other day.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Oh my god, cold pressed olive oil.
Speaker 5 (30:51):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Can you taste it in the drink?
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Yeah, it has a taste of olive oil. I mean,
it tastes really good. It's it's not it's not like,
you know, you're focas or anything sweet like that.
Speaker 8 (31:02):
It has a kind of like a robust taste. But
it's good. It's totally different than They're.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Also going to lose the name of the drink, I
know if you know that? To what, Timmy, No, the
name of the drink is gone. The Crazy Traffic Lady
drink is no longer on the menu. Lay all right,
Angel Martinez man, who would have guessed this? Angel Martinez
is the only one drinking that CORC.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I love it, all right.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
There was an earthquake up in Oregon, a big one.
Six point zero. That's a big deal. Happened a couple
of days ago.
Speaker 14 (31:36):
It went for today as six point zero magnitude quake
off the Oregon Coast. This happened in the past few hours.
It was recorded about one hundred and eighty miles west
of Cusp Bay, right at one point fifteen. So far,
there's no reports of damage or injuries, and the quake
is really too small to generate a tsunami. But she
'all would just say this is a good reminder to
stay actively prepared.
Speaker 10 (31:57):
It's one of those nice little earthquake here in the Northwest.
It reminds us that we live in earthquake country, and
then we need to be prepared for the big one,
the eight point zero, the nine point zero that may
someday occur all the way for Vancouver Island down to
northern California.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
That's gonna be a big one. It'll be a big one,
all right.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
We've got Dodgers tomorrow all day with the parade starting
in the morning and then the big celebration at Dodger
Stadium starting at twelve thirty.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Bellue was at twelve thirty I believe Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 1 (32:26):
Yes, yeah, screaming for the other room twelve thirty tomorrow
and that'll go on for I don't know, a couple
hours at Dodger Stadium, Dodgers Stadium. You need tickets though,
and you also need parking to get to the big
Dodger event tomorrow. So it's the Los Angeles Dodgers. They
completed a five game series they called the Gentleman's Sweep
(32:48):
four to one. And now the big party is tomorrow
the parade, and Wednesday is designing pig say yeah the
parade and then the big celebration at the State So
