Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's k IF I am sixty and you're listening to
The Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Oh if you're just tuning in again.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
I gotta thank John Colevelt and Deborah Mark and Oscar
and Bellio and Steph Fusche and Maddie Krozier, Angel the
whole group. We had a dog emergency, and if you
have dogs, you know what that's like. It is panic
mode for everybody. Thank god, my daughter was able to
(00:33):
stay sharp and not lose her wits and didn't panic
and drove my wife, who's holding her dog, over to
the emergency room.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
And looks like.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
It's a long story, but it looks like it's gonna
be okay at least for a little while. But she
had a seizure and ran up to my daughter's room.
And there's blood everywhere in the house, everywhere. I mean,
it looks like some came in. And I mean, if
if the cops showed up and the cops walk in
(01:04):
the house, they would have called for backup. They would
have called the swat team for backup. What's going on
in here? And and she's a little dog too. She
weighs you know, seven or eight pounds and she must
have lost I would say at least a couple maybe
a pint or two of blood. I don't know how
much dogs have, but it was it's everywhere. So thank
(01:27):
you guys for helping me out here. And hopefully we
can not I can, we can continue here, but it's
it's tough with dogs, man, it's they really do grab you.
And ever since I was a kid, we had a
we had a dog named Dolly.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
It was a standard poodle and it.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Was our first dog, I mean the first dog that
I really remember us having. And it was a family dog,
beautiful dog. We had it for six or seven maybe
eight years. And we were watching it. We were all
in my at my parents' house. My mom and dad
were still married there and we were watching and you
may remember this. There was a cartoon. I think it
was a black maybe it was black and white, and
(02:07):
I remember it was an animated or if it was
costumes or stop action what it was. But it's called
Giant Robot. Giant Robots. You do you remember Giant Robot.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
I remember it. I don't know that I ever saw it.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
And you know he's the guy that he pointed fingers
and their missiles came out of his fingers when he shot.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
You know, the bad guy.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yes, And so we're all watching that and we heard
a screech in on the on the road and my
dad runs out there and our dog had gotten out
and got hit by a car and his front legs
or her front legs were broken. And so my dad
puts us in his car. And I remember this like
it was yesterday. He put six kids in his car
(02:50):
in this Jaguar that he had six kids. And if
you know a Jaguar, they have four seat belts. They
have two in the back and two in the front.
Period there's no extras, And so he put six kids
in himself there. So there's seven people and I've got
the dog in the front with me. All the kids
(03:10):
are they are the kids in the back. And everybody's
hysterically crying. And we leave our house on Magnolia and
Balboa and we drive to the nearest emergency room, which
is on Sepulvita and Burbank. So Burbank had just been finished.
Burbank never went through this Pulvita pass when I was
growing up, I think I was maybe nine or ten
or eleven when that road was completed. And so we're
(03:33):
on Burbank Boulevard. It's you know, nine o'clock at night,
and my dad is screaming, going like eighty miles an
hour to try to get to the vet to save
this dog. And we hit like the Woodley Bridge where
Burbank crosses Woodley, and the car gets air right, the
dog's up on the air, the kids are up in
(03:53):
the air. There's no seatbelts for four of those kids,
there's no seatbelts and bang slammed down, spark you know,
the whole run. And I even looked at my dad
at that point, I go, hey, Dad, look there's kids
in the bag. The dog is gonna make it or not.
Maybe I didn't say that, but I said, I think
we should. We used to slow down a little bit here.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
But my dad loved that dog.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
And what you know, and risk is is a whole
family to get that dog to the to the vet.
And so hopefully she's gonna be okay. But it's it's
tough man at the end when when you've got to
make decisions for dogs.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
And Angel.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
I always remember Angel telling me this the best thing,
the greatest thing you can do for your dog is
put it out of its misery and pain, and Angel
always remember you tell me that. I always thought that
was really really cool. Great piece of advice, by the way,
great piece of advice. I remember where we're remote, or
maybe you called me and told me that, but I'll
always remember them, so thank you for them.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
All right, let's we have some other news here.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Thank you know the crime, I mean, the holidays are
upon us because LAPD is warning us we're going to
see more crime. That's the only reason. That's the only
way we know it's the holiday season out here. There's
two ways we know it. Crime goes up, and the
seasonal section at Target gets changed out. That's where we
know there's a change in seasons. Otherwise you do not know it.
(05:16):
You know, it doesn't get really cold, doesn't get really
hot in the winter. It's just sort of mellow out here.
And but we know it by the you know, the
seasonal changes, crime and what they sell at Target.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
That's the only way we know that Christmas is coming.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
If you lived up in Seattle or Portland where they're
having this huge storm, this bomb cyclone, they call it,
man man, you know it. There are four or five
hundred thousand homes in the Seattle area that have no electricity,
none but crime. They're warning people in Los Angeles. Holidays
are coming up, and so is crime. Crime's going up.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
LAPD is getting ready for one of the busiest shopping
times of the year, and they're making sure the gritch
doesn't interfere, especially when it comes to shopping online.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
I've seen this happen time and time again, and this
has been happening for years.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Danielle Chievius is right about that. E commerce robberies have
been happening for years.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Well.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
During COVID and post COVID it slowed, although we've seen
a increase this year.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
From August to October, there were five robberies involving e commerce.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Okay, do you hear that? Hear that number? I know
sometimes you listen, half ass got listen carefully. Here, there's
a number. Remember this number.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
From August to October there were five robberies involving e commerce.
There's been two more just this month so far. LAPD
Commander Ryan Whitman fears there are more and the crime
is being underreported, underreported for sure. That's why LAPD is
reminding people to use their stations as a safe zone
for when conducting business.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
To use our police stations as safe a change zones
in the case where you can't do that, have a
location that's highly visible in the public eye.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Yeah, Like, if you're selling a house or a TV
or computer or watch, you want to do it at
a police station because if the guy is legitimate, he'll say, yeah, I'll.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Meet you at police station, no problem, no problem.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Bring someone that with you so you're not alone. That'll
harden you as a target. And if something feels wrong leaf.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Some Angelina's like chievous and others have learned their lesson
and say they won't be making the same mistake twice.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
By learn the hard way. Don't wait, is her name chievous?
That's right.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Some Angelina's like chievous?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Chievous? Right, so if she's not married, she's mischievous. Yeah?
Is that wild man? What a name for a story
about crime?
Speaker 4 (07:41):
Some Angelina's like chievous, and others have learned their lesson
and say they won't be making the same mistake twice.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
By learn the hard way.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Don't buy anything online because the fact is is they
will mesh you over.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Oh way, Well, look, I don't know, I don't know
if we can eliminate e commerce totally. Because this one
woman got snaked. I think there are some successful transactions online.

I don't know how you fell on your right wrist
and then you screwed up the left side.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
The left side of your head is all black and
blue because I was tumbling down the hill. Okay, I'm
in I'm in Greenberg, Pennsylvania, Okay, which is outside Pittsburgh.

And the hotel is on the hill like Goton.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Where's a restaurant all right side other down the bottom
of the hill is a restaurant. How do you get there?
He said, Well, you can't really get to have to
walk down the driveway. It goes around this it's about
a mile and a half, two miles together. I said,
But the restaurant's right there at the bottom of the hill.
Why can't I just go down the hill? Well, I
think it's fine, I said, I'll be fine. So I
take two seconds as I'm rolling.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Down the hill.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
At the corn of my eye, I see these two
older ladies, older than my age, you know, and they
go that looks like Jay Lettle rolling down the hill
and they goes, So what would he be doing and
why would he be on the hill here and then boom,
I literally land in front of him.

Wow, it's a lot of dough. A half a billion dollars.
And there are some other sites that say that's low,
that it's closer to seven hundred million.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Geez, wow, where do you get all that dough? We've
got some investments going on.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Where do you get all that dough? Timmy's been on

a lot.
Speaker 2 (16:14):

of great work. Grossmanburnfoundation dot org is the website. But

and twenty two minutes, and he'll be on stage now
an hour and a half, Yeah, an hour and a
half hour and a half at the Comedy Magic Club
in Hermosa Beach. And he's worth four hundred and fifty
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
That's a lot of doubt you can get a brand
new face for that. Well, he got one.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
He I think he bought himself one, right, because he
had he really two faces.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
He screwed. Well, I don't call him two faces.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
He's a friend of mine, but I got Yeah, Stephanie, please,
that's so rude. But he's he's he had a really
banged up face. He burnt it where his face was
melted to his pillow, and so he's going to go
on stage night even though he's hurting. He's all banged up.
He said he doesn't take any pain pills. And with
(18:09):
the exception of Jay Leno, I'll give him the exception.
I think he's one exception that I've ever met, with
the exception of Jay Leno, and I guess and I
think he's the only one. When somebody tells me they
don't do pain pills, that's all they do is paint pills.
That in my opinion, when somebody says, oh, I don't
take pain pills, paint pill guy, till guy, till guy.
(18:30):
Lots of pills for that guy.
Speaker 9 (18:32):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Mayo from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I trust the post office with mail, with important mail.
I've never had a problem, a major problem with the
post office. Whenever I send my property tax in, I
always go into the post office. The one in Glendale
on San Fernando is great. The guys and gals who
work there terrific. To one on all of his terrific
(18:59):
I have never had a major problem with theft when
it comes to the post office. Never, but I might
be alone. There are so many employees that work for
the Postal Service, and not full time employees, part time employees.
That's who's stealing a lot of crap, and it's a lot.
(19:19):
They said there might be a fifth of the temporary
employees stealing a fifth, and there are in the post
office right now. And again, this is the time of
year we all use the post office, Christmas cards, gifts,
all that stuff. There are five hundred and twenty five
thousand career employees and one hundred and fourteen thousand, almost
(19:40):
one hundred and fifteen thousand non career employees. And they
think the one hundred and fourteen thousand are the guys
in there getting rich and stealing a lot of crap.
But they say that there might be twenty percent of
the non career employees that are stealing from the Postal Service.
That's twenty three thousand employees. They're stealing twenty three thousand.
(20:06):
So what does the Postal Service do well? So far,
they're just denying it. They're not fixing all the the
surveillance cameras in the post office, and they're just denying
that this is going on, and this is a major problem.
People are getting jobs, a part time job with the
Postal Service to steal, to take credit cards and where
(20:26):
they think there might be cashier's checks. This is an
incredible story. I can't believe it's not getting more attention.
Speaker 10 (20:31):
Over the last four years, the Postal Service has closed
nearly six thousand internal mail theF cases. Again, those are
just the closed case.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
The six thousand are internal people stealing who work for
the post Office, not people you know ports pirates who
are stealing packages and envelopes that finally reach their destination.
These are the guys that delivering are bringing backpacks to work,
you know, luggage and then filling them up and heading home.
Speaker 10 (20:57):
Mail theF cases, Again, those are just the closed cases.
And when you break that down year by year, you
can see the problem is getting worse. This is a
forty seven percent increase in just four years. And again
this is internal melt uft and these are just the
cases that.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Have been closed, nine thousand of them. Everybody is stealing nowadays,
everybody you know. During the pandemic, I remember that we
had the George Floyd riots in the streets of La
on Melrose and I went to a big, big store,
big box store. If I if I mentioned it, everyone
would know where their nearest one is, and everybody's been
(21:32):
there and everybody's heard it. I'm not gonna mention the store.
But as I walked into the store, it was the
first couple of days of the riots, and two of
the employees who worked at this store saying, hey, you know,
we gotta get off early because all the good stuff's
going to be gone by the time we get out
of here. There's gonna be no good stuff left to
steal by the time we get out of here. And
(21:52):
I thought they were kidding. I thought they were joking
with each other, and so I looked over and they
looked down, not knowing that I heard that, and slowly
walked away. They weren't kidding. They were going to go
steal stuff. Everybody's on the take. Everybody is on the
everybody's taking something.
Speaker 10 (22:10):
The investigators found that these postal employees are bringing in
their personal belongings like backpacks and coats onto the workroom floor,
and of course their targeting mill that they think is
going to contain credit cards, valuable items, personal information, checks,
and even drugs.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
I was at a Walmart about two years ago, and
this guy came in. He was probably in his late sixties,
and he bought a You know, you always know when
somebody's using a bad credit card because their cart is
filled at Walmart. When you go to Walmart, you buy
ten items, maybe fifteen, but you rarely see a cart
that's overflowing. This guy's cart was overflowing. So he gets
(22:47):
to the register. Everything goes through the conveyor belt and
the woman says, you know, seven hundred and thirty dollars,
and he has the nerve to pull out three three
envelopes and open the envelopes in front of her and
use those credit cards.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Obviously those credit cards were stolen. He was opening up
the envelopes.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
You didn't open your mail at Walmart while you're paying
for your products. You do that at home. You know,
you verify the card as yours. You have to call
in or phone in or I don't know, go with
the internet and and and make sure that they know
you're you're in possession of the card. This guy opened
up three envelopes in Walmart and paid for his stuff.
(23:32):
It was it was the most brazen thing I've never
seen a thing like that in my life.
Speaker 10 (23:35):
I know that you interviewed the head of the National
Union for Postal Police Officers.
Speaker 11 (23:40):
What does he have to say about all of this?
Speaker 10 (23:42):
The Postal Service, he says, has become an easy target.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
As bad as you think of it, it's it's much worse.
I mean, it's bag, I mean real bad.
Speaker 11 (23:52):
Frank Albergo believes most postal workers caught stealing mail are
what the Postal Service calls pre career employees. Back in
twenty ten, the Postal Service created a two tier workforce
to cut costs.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Yeah, they have the two tiers.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
They have the United States Postal Service career employees, and
then they have the non career employees. The non career
employees are the ones that are dipping their beaks.
Speaker 11 (24:18):
So the USPS began hiring temporary workers. These workers make less,
don't get the same benefits, and don't work regular schedules.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Here we go.
Speaker 11 (24:27):
They now make up about a fifth of the workforce.
Audits consistently report unacceptable turnover rates. One last year found
less than half of all pre career employees are still
on the job just three hundred and sixty days after
they're hired.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
They're literally getting to hear that half of the they
say half.
Speaker 11 (24:47):
One last year found less than half of all pre
career employees.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Okay, less than half are still on the job, which
means the other half have been fired. Because the post
office is that one of the easiest jobs to be
a temporary.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Look, it's very difficult for a career.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Postman or post woman or post person, I don't know
what they call delivery guy.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
It's very difficult.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
And because like when you have a sense of completion
with your job. Let's say you're in construction and your
job is to build Sofi Stadium. Maybe you worked on
that project. I'll just take that as an example. That
project went on for five years and then it was completed,
and you moved on. And every time you drive by
with your family or your friends, or you see Sofi
(25:33):
Stadium on the air, you know for a football game,
you said, hey, I helped in building that, and there
must be some pride that goes along with that. I
bet there is. And then you moved on to another project. Well,
postal workers never move on to another project. They deliver,
They sort all the mail in the morning, they deliver
it until late afternoon, and then they go back to
the post office, and there's another pile of it where
(25:55):
they get when they get back to the post office.
There's never a sense of you've done something, you've accomplished anything.
It's the same thing over and over and over every day,
exactly the same thing. I know a lot of people say, well,
if you work on an assembly line, it's the same thing.
Well that's not true, because if you work on an
assembly line, each car is different. The models improve over
(26:19):
the years, the models are different. You're putting together different cars,
and you have a sense of completing that car and
it's going to be off to some other owner. Someone's
going to buy that car and enjoy it. And I
think you get a sense of pride for that. But
I mean, I feel for these employees of the post Office.
They have to do the exact same job every single day.
Speaker 11 (26:36):
Are still on the job just three hundred and sixty
days after they're hired.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
They're literally getting the job, so they get steal mill
and quick.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
I mean, it's amazing, and postal workers don't always act alone.
In a report to Congress this year, the OIG said
postal employees have become prime targets for drug trafficking organizations.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
You have criminal organizations, right, gags are actually recruiting.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
This guy sounds like he's a member of Howard Stern Show.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
You have criminal organizations, right, gangs that are actually recruiting
people to get.
Speaker 7 (27:10):
A job in the post service so they can rob
mail and drain bank accounts.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Oh Man, not good. When we come back, we have
some severe weather. It's freezing here in southern California, but
this is nothing compared to what's going on in the northwest, Seattle, Portland,
and it's going right across the country. So if you're
going anywhere for Thanksgiving, you might run into some severe, severe, cold,
brutal weather. We'll go back and tell you where and when,
(27:35):
and you might be affected.
Speaker 9 (27:37):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Horrible weather around the country for Thanksgiving, and there's gonna
be another nightmare for a lot of people traveling. Just
let's take Chicago for instance. Chicago next Wednesday, the day
before Thanksgiving, the lowest thirty one, the highest thirty seven degrees.
So if you're going to Chicago, it's going to be
raining or snowing. Sleep there's going to be some crazy weather.
(28:06):
Then on on Thanksgiving the highest thirty nine, the lowest
thirty one, and then on Friday, for Black Friday, the
lowest twenty seven degrees, Saturday twenty nine degrees, Sunday twenty seven,
then twenty three, twenty seven, twenty seven. So if you
go to Chicago, it is going to be freezing for Thanksgiving.
(28:29):
Let's say you're going to New York City. You know
you got made a couple of bucks. You can slide out,
enjoy yourself. Thirty four degrees is the low for thanks Thanksgiving,
the highest fifty forty one, forty one, and thirty one
for Thanksgiving in New York. But then Black Friday twenty
nine degrees is the low Saturday, the day after Black Friday,
(28:54):
thirty then thirty five, thirty three, thirty one, thirty one, freezing,
absolutely freezing. We have a bomb cyclone, and there hasn't
been this much wind and rain in the Northwest. They
say in sixty years, sixty to one hundred years, they
can't remember this kind of weather up in Seattle.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
So that rain just starting to fall here, but officials
warn it could last for the next three days straight,
elevating the risk of mudslides and flooding. But so far
it is the wind that has proven that. Tonight, the
Chaotics show called bomb cyclone, dropping a deluge of severe
weather on the Northwest, the storm packing hurricane.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
This storm, by the way, if you're going to Portland, Seattle,
Vancouver for Thanksgiving, this weather will be gone by them. Chicago,
New York, I'll have to deal with it for Thanksgiving.
But by the time you are up there for Thanksgiving,
all this weather's going to be gone. Now you might
go to your mom's house or grandma's house, your aunt's house,
and they might still be at electricity. Because there are
(29:54):
four or five hundred thousand homes up in the Northwest.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
They are currently.
Speaker 7 (30:01):
With gusts up to eighty miles an hour, starling traffic,
downing power lines, and uprooting trees. In Washington State official
state severe weather already claimed two lives as large trees
crashed on homes, cars, trailers, and buses, whipping winds leaving
hundreds of thousands without power.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Meanwhile, in northern California, Wait, what did he say, hundreds
of thousands?
Speaker 7 (30:22):
Any saying whipping winds leaving hundreds of thousands without power?
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, hundreds of thousands without power.
Speaker 7 (30:28):
Whipping winds leaving hundreds of thousands without power. Meanwhile, in
northern California, multiple semis spun out wide out conditions.
Speaker 8 (30:36):
To me, it's important to be wary of what's going
on as far as the weather.
Speaker 7 (30:41):
The power of the cyclone is so large satellite imagery
captured it from space. Authorities now bracing for the impact
of an atmospheric river.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Oh, here we go, atmospheric river for northern California and
southern Oregon. If you're heading up there for Thanksgiving, it's
gonna be very wet.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
A narrow band of intense moisture expected to douse the
region with the fire hose of rainfall, with totals up
to fifteen inches over the next forty eight hours in
parts of California, and up to five feet of snow
in the mountains. Climate experts say these weather events are
growing larger and lasting longer, meaning more intense periods of rain.
Speaker 12 (31:16):
Flash lights, batteries, water can goods. You know, I'm all
stocked up this Who knows, right, these are small roads.
Anything could happen.
Speaker 1 (31:26):

a man or woman.
Speaker 12 (31:35):

He's the taller guy.
Speaker 1 (33:17):

even a Tim Conway type. And he was in all
those movies and and that guy was good. It was

Speaker 12 (33:35):
Flash Lights, batteries, water can goods. You know, I'm all

Speaker 7 (33:46):

Steve Patterson has Buddy Hacket, That's who it is.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
I'm sitting there looking at him, going, oh my god,

Speaker 12 (34:03):
Flash lights, batteries, water can goods. You know, I'm all

Speaker 2 (34:09):
Yeah, Buddy Hackett, I'm all stocked.

He was a big part of my childhood watching every
movie you went to, every Disney movie, every comedy, Buddy
Hackett was in it. He was great man. I really

It's k IF I am sixty and you're listening to
The Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Oh if you're just tuning in again.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
I gotta thank John Colevelt and Deborah Mark and Oscar
and Bellio and Steph Fusche and Maddie Krozier, Angel the
whole group. We had a dog emergency, and if you
have dogs, you know what that's like. It is panic
mode for everybody. Thank god, my daughter was able to
(00:33):
stay sharp and not lose her wits and didn't panic
and drove my wife, who's holding her dog, over to
the emergency room.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
And looks like.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
It's a long story, but it looks like it's gonna
be okay at least for a little while. But she
had a seizure and ran up to my daughter's room.
And there's blood everywhere in the house, everywhere. I mean,
it looks like some came in. And I mean, if
if the cops showed up and the cops walk in
(01:04):
the house, they would have called for backup. They would
have called the swat team for backup. What's going on
in here? And and she's a little dog too. She
weighs you know, seven or eight pounds and she must
have lost I would say at least a couple maybe
a pint or two of blood. I don't know how
much dogs have, but it was it's everywhere. So thank
(01:27):
you guys for helping me out here. And hopefully we
can not I can, we can continue here, but it's
it's tough with dogs, man, it's they really do grab you.
And ever since I was a kid, we had a
we had a dog named Dolly.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
It was a standard poodle and it.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Was our first dog, I mean the first dog that
I really remember us having. And it was a family dog,
beautiful dog. We had it for six or seven maybe
eight years. And we were watching it. We were all
in my at my parents' house. My mom and dad
were still married there and we were watching and you
may remember this. There was a cartoon. I think it
was a black maybe it was black and white, and
(02:07):
I remember it was an animated or if it was
costumes or stop action what it was. But it's called
Giant Robot. Giant Robots. You do you remember Giant Robot.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
I remember it. I don't know that I ever saw it.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
And you know he's the guy that he pointed fingers
and their missiles came out of his fingers when he shot.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
You know, the bad guy.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yes, And so we're all watching that and we heard
a screech in on the on the road and my
dad runs out there and our dog had gotten out
and got hit by a car and his front legs
or her front legs were broken. And so my dad
puts us in his car. And I remember this like
it was yesterday. He put six kids in his car
(02:50):
in this Jaguar that he had six kids. And if
you know a Jaguar, they have four seat belts. They
have two in the back and two in the front.
Period there's no extras, And so he put six kids
in himself there. So there's seven people and I've got
the dog in the front with me. All the kids
(03:10):
are they are the kids in the back. And everybody's
hysterically crying. And we leave our house on Magnolia and
Balboa and we drive to the nearest emergency room, which
is on Sepulvita and Burbank. So Burbank had just been finished.
Burbank never went through this Pulvita pass when I was
growing up, I think I was maybe nine or ten
or eleven when that road was completed. And so we're
(03:33):
on Burbank Boulevard. It's you know, nine o'clock at night,
and my dad is screaming, going like eighty miles an
hour to try to get to the vet to save
this dog. And we hit like the Woodley Bridge where
Burbank crosses Woodley, and the car gets air right, the
dog's up on the air, the kids are up in
(03:53):
the air. There's no seatbelts for four of those kids,
there's no seatbelts and bang slammed down, spark you know,
the whole run. And I even looked at my dad
at that point, I go, hey, Dad, look there's kids
in the bag. The dog is gonna make it or not.
Maybe I didn't say that, but I said, I think
we should. We used to slow down a little bit here.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
But my dad loved that dog.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
And what you know, and risk is is a whole
family to get that dog to the to the vet.
And so hopefully she's gonna be okay. But it's it's
tough man at the end when when you've got to
make decisions for dogs.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
And Angel.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
I always remember Angel telling me this the best thing,
the greatest thing you can do for your dog is
put it out of its misery and pain, and Angel
always remember you tell me that. I always thought that
was really really cool. Great piece of advice, by the way,
great piece of advice. I remember where we're remote, or
maybe you called me and told me that, but I'll
always remember them, so thank you for them.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
All right, let's we have some other news here.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
Thank you know the crime, I mean, the holidays are
upon us because LAPD is warning us we're going to
see more crime. That's the only reason. That's the only
way we know it's the holiday season out here. There's
two ways we know it. Crime goes up, and the
seasonal section at Target gets changed out. That's where we
know there's a change in seasons. Otherwise you do not know it.
(05:16):
You know, it doesn't get really cold, doesn't get really
hot in the winter. It's just sort of mellow out here.
And but we know it by the you know, the
seasonal changes, crime and what they sell at Target.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
That's the only way we know that Christmas is coming.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
If you lived up in Seattle or Portland where they're
having this huge storm, this bomb cyclone, they call it,
man man, you know it. There are four or five
hundred thousand homes in the Seattle area that have no electricity,
none but crime. They're warning people in Los Angeles. Holidays
are coming up, and so is crime. Crime's going up.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
LAPD is getting ready for one of the busiest shopping
times of the year, and they're making sure the gritch
doesn't interfere, especially when it comes to shopping online.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
I've seen this happen time and time again, and this
has been happening for years.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
Danielle Chievius is right about that. E commerce robberies have
been happening for years.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Well.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
During COVID and post COVID it slowed, although we've seen
a increase this year.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
From August to October, there were five robberies involving e commerce.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Okay, do you hear that? Hear that number? I know
sometimes you listen, half ass got listen carefully. Here, there's
a number. Remember this number.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
From August to October there were five robberies involving e commerce.
There's been two more just this month so far. LAPD
Commander Ryan Whitman fears there are more and the crime
is being underreported, underreported for sure. That's why LAPD is
reminding people to use their stations as a safe zone
for when conducting business.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
To use our police stations as safe a change zones
in the case where you can't do that, have a
location that's highly visible in the public eye.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Yeah, Like, if you're selling a house or a TV
or computer or watch, you want to do it at
a police station because if the guy is legitimate, he'll say, yeah, I'll.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Meet you at police station, no problem, no problem.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Bring someone that with you so you're not alone. That'll
harden you as a target. And if something feels wrong leaf.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Some Angelina's like chievous and others have learned their lesson
and say they won't be making the same mistake twice.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
By learn the hard way. Don't wait, is her name chievous?
That's right.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Some Angelina's like chievous?
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Chievous? Right, so if she's not married, she's mischievous. Yeah?
Is that wild man? What a name for a story
about crime?
Speaker 4 (07:41):
Some Angelina's like chievous, and others have learned their lesson
and say they won't be making the same mistake twice.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
By learn the hard way.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Don't buy anything online because the fact is is they
will mesh you over.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Oh way, Well, look, I don't know, I don't know
if we can eliminate e commerce totally. Because this one
woman got snaked. I think there are some successful transactions online.
Speaker 7 (08:06):
I learned the hard way.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Get snake, Timmy. She got messed over. Yeah she did,

Why can't I just go down the hill? Well, I
think it's fine, I said, I'll be fine. So I
take two seconds as I'm rolling.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Down the hill.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
At the corn of my eye, I see these two
older ladies, older than my age, you know, and they
go that looks like Jay Lettle rolling down the hill
and they goes, So what would he be doing and
why would he be on the hill here and then boom,
I literally land in front of him.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
I got blood all over me. You know, Wow are you?
I call high girls? How are you?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
So? We had a nice visit and then then I
went and I got something to eat, and then and
I went. Then I hobbled to the CVS and bought
an ee patch because my eye was all swollen.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
Wow, and I did the show. So wait a minute,
what did you break your hand or what happened? I
broke my wrist And how many places? Just the one place?
You break it in your wrist? Yeah, I don't want
to break it onney the other place. How long were
you tumble for it? It seemed like an hour? No, no,
I mean it just the banks bank. It's about sixty feet.
Oh okay, Oh I see that's a real drop. I
(13:08):
mean that's a big drop. Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
But I understand that because it's the same thing in
Dana Point where you stay up on the bluff. The
restaurant's right there, but you have to walk three miles
to get to it.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I'm like, why don't you just walk down to walk
down this?
Speaker 8 (13:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (13:19):
You go, that's right, And by golly, I got.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
To the restaurant, thank you.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
But you know, I'm sitting in the restaurant and it
hasn't started as swell yet.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
And they ordered the chicken parmesan.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
You know. And then the lady lady brings to me
and he goes, you look different ten minutes ago and
you ordered it?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Why what?
Speaker 3 (13:36):
And then when I suddenly realized, oh this eye is closing,
Oh my god, and I go, oh, it's swollen. Ago
not I'm only looking out of one eyes like I'm
now eating like a pirate. Arg hilarious.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
You look it was good chicken pan. I mean, Mike
Tyson doesn't look this banged up. Well there you go.
He didn't fight as hard as I. That's true. Yeah,
that's a great line for tomorrow and I can use that.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Jay Jay then at my opening line was don't bring
up politics at the dinner table.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
Got a big I got a big letter, all right.
So Jay Leno is staying at this hotel. He does
want to make the mile and a half walk, you know,
around the mountain to get down to this restaurant. He
goes down the cliff and bang somersaults, cartwheels and it's
over all right, what is let's do a whip around here?
What is jay Leno's net worth? I should have asked
(14:31):
him when he's here, I say, although that's kind of rude.
I guess I don't know.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
I don't know. Maybe it's not who knows what is
jay Leno worth?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Because he couldn't hire a car to take him to
that restaurant, and he could hire a lot of cars
to take him that restaurant.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
All right, Steph.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Ernie, Tony, Steph Bush, what do you think jay Leno's worth?
Four hundred million, four hundred million, croach, I'll go half

Sorry, Oh that's okay, Sorry, calm down, all right? Anybody
else in there? Anybody else around?
Speaker 3 (15:28):
No?
Speaker 2 (15:28):
Okay, all right? Uh.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
The actual retail we got a tie. We've got a
tie between Steph Fush and Krozer. The actual net worth
of j Leno four hundred and fifty million dollars. That
guy came in yesterday with that face all banged up
and his wrist broken, worth four hundred and fifty million dollars.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
I should have been listened to him.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Wow, it's a lot of dough. A half a billion dollars.
And there are some other sites that say that's low,
that it's closer to seven hundred million.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Geez, wow, where do you get all that dough? We've
got some investments going on.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Where do you get all that dough? Timmy's been on
TV for ninety years? Oh well, I guess that pays
a lot.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
What the hell?
Speaker 1 (16:15):
But yeah, he saw it worth four hundred and fifty
million dollars. He is doing a charity event tonight in
Hermosa Beach. You can go get out of your house
in Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach. What else around there? Stephush,
you know that area Torrents. What are some other cities
and near her Mosa Beach? Oh well yeah, Manhattan Beach, Redondo?
(16:37):
Redondo's close. Yeah, and he got rock sushi right there.
El Segundo is another closed city. Well, yeah, it's not bad.
You can get there from melsa Gun twenty minutes away.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
I also got his twenty minutes from Hesa Mosta. Yeah really,
oh and yeah, I guess trafficking.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
All right, But you can go tonight. It's there.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
They're supporting the Grossman Burn Center tonight. They're doing charity
so my kids can get the ointment for their burns
for free, and so that doctor Grossman does a lot
of great work. Grossmanburnfoundation dot org is the website. But
just show up, you know, pay for a ticket, maybe
buy an auction item, whatever, and enjoy yourself. Jay Leno
(17:17):
tonight in an hour and twenty two minutes, an hour
and twenty two minutes, and he'll be on stage now
an hour and a half, Yeah, an hour and a
half hour and a half at the Comedy Magic Club
in Hermosa Beach. And he's worth four hundred and fifty
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
That's a lot of doubt you can get a brand
new face for that. Well, he got one.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
He I think he bought himself one, right, because he
had he really two faces.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
He screwed. Well, I don't call him two faces.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
He's a friend of mine, but I got Yeah, Stephanie, please,
that's so rude. But he's he's he had a really
banged up face. He burnt it where his face was
melted to his pillow, and so he's going to go
on stage night even though he's hurting. He's all banged up.
He said he doesn't take any pain pills. And with
(18:09):
the exception of Jay Leno, I'll give him the exception.
I think he's one exception that I've ever met, with
the exception of Jay Leno, and I guess and I
think he's the only one. When somebody tells me they
don't do pain pills, that's all they do is paint pills.
That in my opinion, when somebody says, oh, I don't
take pain pills, paint pill guy, till guy, till guy.
(18:30):
Lots of pills for that guy.
Speaker 9 (18:32):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Mayo from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I trust the post office with mail, with important mail.
I've never had a problem, a major problem with the
post office. Whenever I send my property tax in, I
always go into the post office. The one in Glendale
on San Fernando is great. The guys and gals who
work there terrific. To one on all of his terrific
(18:59):
I have never had a major problem with theft when
it comes to the post office. Never, but I might
be alone. There are so many employees that work for
the Postal Service, and not full time employees, part time employees.
That's who's stealing a lot of crap, and it's a lot.
(19:19):
They said there might be a fifth of the temporary
employees stealing a fifth, and there are in the post
office right now. And again, this is the time of
year we all use the post office, Christmas cards, gifts,
all that stuff. There are five hundred and twenty five
thousand career employees and one hundred and fourteen thousand, almost
(19:40):
one hundred and fifteen thousand non career employees. And they
think the one hundred and fourteen thousand are the guys
in there getting rich and stealing a lot of crap.
But they say that there might be twenty percent of
the non career employees that are stealing from the Postal Service.
That's twenty three thousand employees. They're stealing twenty three thousand.
(20:06):
So what does the Postal Service do well? So far,
they're just denying it. They're not fixing all the the
surveillance cameras in the post office, and they're just denying
that this is going on, and this is a major problem.
People are getting jobs, a part time job with the
Postal Service to steal, to take credit cards and where
(20:26):
they think there might be cashier's checks. This is an
incredible story. I can't believe it's not getting more attention.
Speaker 10 (20:31):
Over the last four years, the Postal Service has closed
nearly six thousand internal mail theF cases. Again, those are
just the closed case.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
The six thousand are internal people stealing who work for
the post Office, not people you know ports pirates who
are stealing packages and envelopes that finally reach their destination.
These are the guys that delivering are bringing backpacks to work,
you know, luggage and then filling them up and heading home.
Speaker 10 (20:57):
Mail theF cases, Again, those are just the closed cases.
And when you break that down year by year, you
can see the problem is getting worse. This is a
forty seven percent increase in just four years. And again
this is internal melt uft and these are just the
cases that.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Have been closed, nine thousand of them. Everybody is stealing nowadays,
everybody you know. During the pandemic, I remember that we
had the George Floyd riots in the streets of La
on Melrose and I went to a big, big store,
big box store. If I if I mentioned it, everyone
would know where their nearest one is, and everybody's been
(21:32):
there and everybody's heard it. I'm not gonna mention the store.
But as I walked into the store, it was the
first couple of days of the riots, and two of
the employees who worked at this store saying, hey, you know,
we gotta get off early because all the good stuff's
going to be gone by the time we get out
of here. There's gonna be no good stuff left to
steal by the time we get out of here. And
(21:52):
I thought they were kidding. I thought they were joking
with each other, and so I looked over and they
looked down, not knowing that I heard that, and slowly
walked away. They weren't kidding. They were going to go
steal stuff. Everybody's on the take. Everybody is on the
everybody's taking something.
Speaker 10 (22:10):
The investigators found that these postal employees are bringing in
their personal belongings like backpacks and coats onto the workroom floor,
and of course their targeting mill that they think is
going to contain credit cards, valuable items, personal information, checks,
and even drugs.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
I was at a Walmart about two years ago, and
this guy came in. He was probably in his late sixties,
and he bought a You know, you always know when
somebody's using a bad credit card because their cart is
filled at Walmart. When you go to Walmart, you buy
ten items, maybe fifteen, but you rarely see a cart
that's overflowing. This guy's cart was overflowing. So he gets
(22:47):
to the register. Everything goes through the conveyor belt and
the woman says, you know, seven hundred and thirty dollars,
and he has the nerve to pull out three three
envelopes and open the envelopes in front of her and
use those credit cards.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Obviously those credit cards were stolen. He was opening up
the envelopes.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
You didn't open your mail at Walmart while you're paying
for your products. You do that at home. You know,
you verify the card as yours. You have to call
in or phone in or I don't know, go with
the internet and and and make sure that they know
you're you're in possession of the card. This guy opened
up three envelopes in Walmart and paid for his stuff.
(23:32):
It was it was the most brazen thing I've never
seen a thing like that in my life.
Speaker 10 (23:35):
I know that you interviewed the head of the National
Union for Postal Police Officers.
Speaker 11 (23:40):
What does he have to say about all of this?
Speaker 10 (23:42):
The Postal Service, he says, has become an easy target.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
As bad as you think of it, it's it's much worse.
I mean, it's bag, I mean real bad.
Speaker 11 (23:52):
Frank Albergo believes most postal workers caught stealing mail are
what the Postal Service calls pre career employees. Back in
twenty ten, the Postal Service created a two tier workforce
to cut costs.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Yeah, they have the two tiers.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
They have the United States Postal Service career employees, and
then they have the non career employees. The non career
employees are the ones that are dipping their beaks.
Speaker 11 (24:18):
So the USPS began hiring temporary workers. These workers make less,
don't get the same benefits, and don't work regular schedules.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Here we go.
Speaker 11 (24:27):
They now make up about a fifth of the workforce.
Audits consistently report unacceptable turnover rates. One last year found
less than half of all pre career employees are still
on the job just three hundred and sixty days after
they're hired.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
They're literally getting to hear that half of the they
say half.
Speaker 11 (24:47):
One last year found less than half of all pre
career employees.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Okay, less than half are still on the job, which
means the other half have been fired. Because the post
office is that one of the easiest jobs to be
a temporary.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Look, it's very difficult for a career.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Postman or post woman or post person, I don't know
what they call delivery guy.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
It's very difficult.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
And because like when you have a sense of completion
with your job. Let's say you're in construction and your
job is to build Sofi Stadium. Maybe you worked on
that project. I'll just take that as an example. That
project went on for five years and then it was completed,
and you moved on. And every time you drive by
with your family or your friends, or you see Sofi
(25:33):
Stadium on the air, you know for a football game,
you said, hey, I helped in building that, and there
must be some pride that goes along with that. I
bet there is. And then you moved on to another project. Well,
postal workers never move on to another project. They deliver,
They sort all the mail in the morning, they deliver
it until late afternoon, and then they go back to
the post office, and there's another pile of it where
(25:55):
they get when they get back to the post office.
There's never a sense of you've done something, you've accomplished anything.
It's the same thing over and over and over every day,
exactly the same thing. I know a lot of people say, well,
if you work on an assembly line, it's the same thing.
Well that's not true, because if you work on an
assembly line, each car is different. The models improve over
(26:19):
the years, the models are different. You're putting together different cars,
and you have a sense of completing that car and
it's going to be off to some other owner. Someone's
going to buy that car and enjoy it. And I
think you get a sense of pride for that. But
I mean, I feel for these employees of the post Office.
They have to do the exact same job every single day.
Speaker 11 (26:36):
Are still on the job just three hundred and sixty
days after they're hired.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
They're literally getting the job, so they get steal mill
and quick.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
I mean, it's amazing, and postal workers don't always act alone.
In a report to Congress this year, the OIG said
postal employees have become prime targets for drug trafficking organizations.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
You have criminal organizations, right, gags are actually recruiting.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
This guy sounds like he's a member of Howard Stern Show.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
You have criminal organizations, right, gangs that are actually recruiting
people to get.
Speaker 7 (27:10):
A job in the post service so they can rob
mail and drain bank accounts.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
Oh Man, not good. When we come back, we have
some severe weather. It's freezing here in southern California, but
this is nothing compared to what's going on in the northwest, Seattle, Portland,
and it's going right across the country. So if you're
going anywhere for Thanksgiving, you might run into some severe, severe, cold,
brutal weather. We'll go back and tell you where and when,
(27:35):
and you might be affected.
Speaker 9 (27:37):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Horrible weather around the country for Thanksgiving, and there's gonna
be another nightmare for a lot of people traveling. Just
let's take Chicago for instance. Chicago next Wednesday, the day
before Thanksgiving, the lowest thirty one, the highest thirty seven degrees.
So if you're going to Chicago, it's going to be
raining or snowing. Sleep there's going to be some crazy weather.
(28:06):
Then on on Thanksgiving the highest thirty nine, the lowest
thirty one, and then on Friday, for Black Friday, the
lowest twenty seven degrees, Saturday twenty nine degrees, Sunday twenty seven,
then twenty three, twenty seven, twenty seven. So if you
go to Chicago, it is going to be freezing for Thanksgiving.
(28:29):
Let's say you're going to New York City. You know
you got made a couple of bucks. You can slide out,
enjoy yourself. Thirty four degrees is the low for thanks Thanksgiving,
the highest fifty forty one, forty one, and thirty one
for Thanksgiving in New York. But then Black Friday twenty
nine degrees is the low Saturday, the day after Black Friday,
(28:54):
thirty then thirty five, thirty three, thirty one, thirty one, freezing,
absolutely freezing. We have a bomb cyclone, and there hasn't
been this much wind and rain in the Northwest. They
say in sixty years, sixty to one hundred years, they
can't remember this kind of weather up in Seattle.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
So that rain just starting to fall here, but officials
warn it could last for the next three days straight,
elevating the risk of mudslides and flooding. But so far
it is the wind that has proven that. Tonight, the
Chaotics show called bomb cyclone, dropping a deluge of severe
weather on the Northwest, the storm packing hurricane.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
This storm, by the way, if you're going to Portland, Seattle,
Vancouver for Thanksgiving, this weather will be gone by them. Chicago,
New York, I'll have to deal with it for Thanksgiving.
But by the time you are up there for Thanksgiving,
all this weather's going to be gone. Now you might
go to your mom's house or grandma's house, your aunt's house,
and they might still be at electricity. Because there are
(29:54):
four or five hundred thousand homes up in the Northwest.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
They are currently.
Speaker 7 (30:01):
With gusts up to eighty miles an hour, starling traffic,
downing power lines, and uprooting trees. In Washington State official
state severe weather already claimed two lives as large trees
crashed on homes, cars, trailers, and buses, whipping winds leaving
hundreds of thousands without power.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Meanwhile, in northern California, Wait, what did he say, hundreds
of thousands?
Speaker 7 (30:22):
Any saying whipping winds leaving hundreds of thousands without power?
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, hundreds of thousands without power.
Speaker 7 (30:28):
Whipping winds leaving hundreds of thousands without power. Meanwhile, in
northern California, multiple semis spun out wide out conditions.
Speaker 8 (30:36):
To me, it's important to be wary of what's going
on as far as the weather.
Speaker 7 (30:41):
The power of the cyclone is so large satellite imagery
captured it from space. Authorities now bracing for the impact
of an atmospheric river.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
Oh, here we go, atmospheric river for northern California and
southern Oregon. If you're heading up there for Thanksgiving, it's
gonna be very wet.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
A narrow band of intense moisture expected to douse the
region with the fire hose of rainfall, with totals up
to fifteen inches over the next forty eight hours in
parts of California, and up to five feet of snow
in the mountains. Climate experts say these weather events are
growing larger and lasting longer, meaning more intense periods of rain.
Speaker 12 (31:16):
Flash lights, batteries, water can goods. You know, I'm all
stocked up this Who knows, right, these are small roads.
Anything could happen.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
