Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. All right,
let's get into this road rage release guy. Everybody saw
this video a couple of years ago of this guy
going around beating the hell out of mostly women. You know,
upstanding guy. His idea was, when he got into any
(00:25):
kind of road rates, you take a crowbar out and
try to break the guy's windshield or side window. And
he was sentenced to five years in prison because he
attacked so many people, and he had a previous record,
And now it looks like he might be out in
the next month or so.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Daniel Radomak, he's currently in prison, but he could be
eligible for parole any day now. Videos of him went
viral last year as he terrorized some drivers across La County.
That's him beating the hell out of a windshoop and
he will remember this series the violent road rage attacks.
(01:03):
Radomac was seen sometimes using a metal pipe to vandalize cars.
Ten people actually reached out to us saying they were attacked,
most of them were women. His road reach rampage resulted
in convictions on several felony counts. Including criminal threats, vandalism,
and elder abuse.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Oh boy, and this guy's had a previous record, a
lot of previous incidents. Run into with the cops, he
could get out.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
The DA's office says Radomac had steroids and thirty thousand
dollars in his car once he was searched after an
incident in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I'd love, I respect the guy rolling around with thirty
grand you know, I don't know, but probably gambling guy.
Don't you think gambling or drugs? Maybe? Yeah, no, kind
of now he has a LinkLine. But you know, if
you're selling drugs or doing drugs, you you've got to
really keep a low profile. You can't get out of
your car ands beat the hell out of it.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
That's true, that's a good part. You got to really
really relax. But the steroids thing, that'll I think pump
up your maybe yeah're right a threshold.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
You know.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
What's a really good friend of yours if you're buying
or selling drugs. The speed limit, Yeah, speed limit. Get
in that speed limit and just sit there, sit there. Oh.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
He has a lengthy criminal history that spans and nearly
two decades and crosses several states and jurisdictions. The Grand
Court granted him four hundred and twenty four days of
pre sentenced credit for time served while awaiting sentencing, and
according to online records, Radamac's earliest eligible date for parole
(02:34):
is this month.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Wow, that guy might get out.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Jeez, man, whew, what a life that kind of may
him and you can still skate.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
You think you'll go back to mischieff. You think you'll
come out and change, man.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Well, I think that I'd bet the trend, which is
that he'll continue.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
You think so, yeah, I do, all right? Well, I
think he's trouble and trouble will gets you more trouble.
He might be amongst this soon, so be careful out there.
Michael Madson's in the news. He's been arrested.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
You know who he is, right, He plays crazy when
he's in films, like he was in Reservoir Dogs years ago.
I kill Bill, I think, yeah, right, he always plays
that extreme guy.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Right. Well, now he's taken that off stage, is that right? Yeah,
he's being He was arrested in Malibu on charges of
domestic battery after a disagreement with his wife. Malibu Lost
Hills Sheriff station responded to a call after midnight on
Saturday this previous Saturday, with the actor sixty six being
(03:38):
arrested on a charge relating to the use of force
or violence against a cohabitant. The BBC reported that the
authorities were informed of the family disturbance, with local department
claiming the woman alleged quote her husband pushed her and
locked her out of the house Fred Flintstone style or no,
(04:00):
Wilma flint Stone.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Wilma locked Fred out, which is probably a better move
when you're the guy.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I think you're doing a little more. Yeah, who locked
you out?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I think Wilma. Yeah, because he's yelling Wilma yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Right, yeah, yeah, but how did I don't remember how
he got you know, he got Oh, he got tricked
to going out of the house. He had that those
big ribs he was gonna eat. Remember that big in
the opening. Yeah, it toppled the car. It was so yeah, exactly, Yeah,
I mean that's the big as Yeah. Everything was bigger
back then. Yeah. It could have been like a Bronosaurus
rib prehistoric. Yeah. But that is a great show. I
(04:33):
mean it's really sexist. You couldn't do that show nowadays.
The flint Stones. But no, to go back and listen
to it. It's great. And you know, I never knew
that that what's his name, the Martian? Uh oh yeah,
you're you're power Gazoo.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Yeah gazoo was Harvey Corman. Yeah, that's that's really well
and Fred and Barney. The whole show is like the Honeymooners,
the Jackie Gleason Show, but it was just animated and
done prehistoric time.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Let me let me bring this up for you here,
and you're gonna listen to Let's see stones. Okay, you're
gonna listen to this. It's a kazoo from the Flintstones.
And again I didn't know this, I think, until you
told me that it's actually Harvey Korman that does the
Great Kazoo.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Oh my god, great character, great moment.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's all right here it is the Great Kazoo is
Harvey Korman. Oh mighty kazoo. I'm like a big, juicy
Bronta Berger. Hey it works.

How about twenty bucks? Hey, I want a beautiful new
dress for my wife.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
That's Barney me too. I want a beautiful new dress
for my wife. I like a gym set for Bambim.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I'd like a new doll for pebbles. We need some
cotton furniture.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
We need a new dining room, set.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
New golf clubs, a fishing pole.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Here's the Great Kazoo talk, which is now approaching an
officer of the law.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I believe you explain all this to him. That's Harvey Corman,
the Great Gazoo, the officer of the law. Stuff. Oh well,
it just did, but we just found it.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Oh you found it out here in the middle of
the road, right citation number one.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Fishing pole and place.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
The gazoo gave him all that stuff. And now the
cops has word you get all this stuff. They don't
have any receipts for it. Here and the gazoo. No
one can see gazoo except for them.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
Here's the take, heed, Greed brings trouble, which is now
approaching an officer of the law.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
I believe that's the Great brings trouble, Harvey Korman, man,
That is wild. I never I never put two and
two together. I watched that as a kid a billion
billion times. And here's the here's more, here's better audio.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
Maigre. You sometimes you're supposed to give us what we want.
Get you let us get into terrible trouble.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Certainly, how else are you going to learn the difference
between what you.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Really want and what you think you want? Say that
again to be a favor, sleep on it. But that's
Harvey Karmon, so good, so good. That's such a great.
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Zoom says, fucking go wrong, Bonnie, that is such a
great court The voice of Barney is mel Blank.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, I think when he passed away they replaced him
with a different Barney.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
That's great, but you're right. It is the Honeymooners animation
really great. It's right and also another thing you can't
do on TV anymore. Threatened to punch your wife. Oh
my god, I just can't.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
I mean, you can't imagine, you know, to the Moon
with Alice, Alice.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
You would cock his fist and say, to the Moon
with you, wind up his like he was going to
punch her in. You can't do that nowadays, No, you cannot.
I mean, he imagine going to a studio and you say, hey,
I got this great animation and the hook line, the
you know, the tagline, and his saying is he's going
to punch his wife in the face.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
And they're like they go and then they said no, no,
but we all know the audience knows he'll never do it.
He we know he loves her. I don't care, Well,
you cannot do that. Yeah, I don't care if we
know that he's not going to do it.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
So his hook is what, h Well, he's gonna he's
gonna crank his fist up and threaten to punch her
in the face.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Can we replace that with I don't know, like a
dog that likes to, you know, do funny things or tricks. Yes, yes,
we can do that. We can do that. All these
guys are. It was a very nineteen fifty. It was
a wild wild man.
Speaker 7 (08:47):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Did you buy a new car? Yeah? You weren't you
going to looking for a car for a while?
Speaker 8 (08:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Yeah, yeah yeah. I'll tell you a quick story. I've
been looking for a new car for three years and
I go to CarMax, you know, in Chatsworth, I go
to the one in Dwarde. I go to the one
in Burbank. And because CarMax changes out their cars so often,
if you go the next week, you'll see all new cars.
I don't know how they do it. I don't know
(09:16):
why they do it, but they do it, and so
I love going to CarMax. One of the reasons I
love it is they never there's never a sales guy
that comes up to you and says, hey, can I
help you out?
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Not once, because You've got all the information you need
on the internet.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Well, I think yeah. And when you walk around Carmax's lot,
they don't bother you. You can walk around for hours
without anyone stopping you and asking you do you need
any help? And that's beautiful. That's one of the reasons
I go. I bought my daughter. We bought our daughter
a car from CarMax. Had a great deal with that,
and so I finally found a car that I liked.
(09:53):
And I don't want to go into great detail. I
don't want to bust the other people that work their
their balls. I just want and I'm not going to
say the name of the dealership. But I finally found
the car I wanted. It's about twenty five miles from
my house, and I called the guy up and I
don't like to leave my name or number, you know,
(10:14):
when they say for more information, leave your name and number.
I don't like to do it because I don't like
a bunch of calls and you know, sales guys banging
on you. But I did with this car because I
really liked this car. And I and I talked to
him or texted him back and forth. I said, I
gave him the VIN number and the picture of the car.
I said, is this car available? And he said yes.
I said, what is the price? He said, it's thirty
nine nine hundred dollars. I said, I'll take that car
(10:37):
sight unseen, I know the car. I'll take it. I'll
come and pay for it tomorrow. We'll figure out the financing.
So he said what time can you get there? And
I said between four thirty and five on Sunday. I'll
be there. This is on Friday, and I said I'll
be there Sunday between four thirty and five. He calls
me on Saturday to make sure I'm coming, and then
text me on Sunday said he sure you comeing some
(10:59):
to stay late. I said, I'll be there. I get
there at five at four thirty five, about an hour
from my house in my burbank. I show up. The
car is sitting right there I get in it. It's beautiful,
it smells new, it's brand new, it has four miles
on it. Beautiful car. And I said I'll take it,
and he goes great, and he said they're going to
(11:21):
take it off to get gassed and washed, and then
we'll have it ready for you. I said okay, and
he said, you want to see anything else while you're
While we're waiting, it's gonna be twenty minutes. I said,
oh yeah, I love looking at new cars. So I
looked at other cars there on the lot, some used,
some new, and and then he said he I was
in it. I was sitting in a used car, and
he says, how about this car? Do you like this car?
(11:44):
I said no, I'm gonna pick the one that that
I came for, but I really do like this car.
I want to see it. I want to see the
inside of it. And then we're walking back to where
that car was and it's not there, and I said,
is it's still getting gassed and washed and spent about
forty minutes and he said, well, the price on that
car was a mistake online. I said, oh, all right,
(12:09):
well what's the new price. He said, well, I can't
even give you the new price because we already sold it.
I said, but wait a minute, but you were walking
around with me for forty minutes. Nobody came up to
you and said that to you, so you knew before
I got here and we started walking around that that
car was sold. He said, Look, it's a long story,
but that car is not available anymore, and it's going
(12:30):
to be ten thousand dollars more than it was, and
we already sold it to somebody else. I said, well,
I said, but but I'm looking. I looked online. It's
still available online. And by the way, today on Tuesday,
I looked up to that car, it's still available. So
it's just the decoy to bring you in. I don't
know what it was. It was really weird. Well, I mean,
it seems deliberate that it was a decoy to bring
(12:51):
you in. And then the guy comes out and he said,
we'd never sell that car for that price. I don't
know what the guy's here told you, but we'd never
sell you that car for that price. That's a forty
seven thousand dollars car. And I said I and I said,
you know what I said, UF and guys are all
the same and I left, and and I when I
was driving home, I was so I wasn't angry. I
(13:12):
was just sad that that kind of crap still goes on.
You know, it's outrageous. I mean, it really is. That
he he made me drive, you know, the twenty five
miles to his dealership, just to tell me that the
car is not available. It's not going to be sold
to you and you can better find something else because
that deal is gone. And so I'm driving home and
(13:36):
I'm again, I'm not pissed. I'm really sad that I
thought that that kind of crap because the Internet keeps
people honest. You know, you can go write reviews on
what a crappy dealership that was. Sure, I thought that
that crap was over, you know, bringing you out to
a dealership and then totally fing you. I thought that
was gone. But it doesn't. It exists. It happens all
(13:59):
the time. Did the guy call you again and say, hey,
I'm sorry about that. What happened?
Speaker 3 (14:03):
And I'm nothing, let me make it up to you.
Not a word, not a word, nothing, And you're i
think exercising a lot of restraint by not mentioning.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I mean, you have a it's a platform.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
And by the way, it's not defamatory at all, because
I got it all on text. Yeah, because you're you know,
it's an actual thing and it's true.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
But I also know how hard it is to run
a business. And I don't want to run the guy down.
It might just been that one guy who is an idiot.
I don't know, I don't know. Yeah, no, and I
get and I get that.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
I think it is hard, but it's also but it's
also it's hard to run a legitimate business when you're
up against businesses like that.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
That's right. So on the way back, I called there's
another dealer, Star Forward in Glendale, and I said, hey,
I saw this car online. How much is this car?
And I thought he was going to tell me, you know,
forty eight thousand dollars like that one that they jacked
(14:58):
the price up on. And he said, if you come
in today, we have that car listed at thirty nine.
If you come in and buy it before we close today,
I'll give you that car for thirty four thousand dollars. Wow.
And I thought, Okay, everything happens for a reason, that is,
so you got that car. I went into I love
this Star Ford. I had the greatest, greatest experience of
(15:22):
my life buying a car, and it took me about
about a half hour or so. They didn't give me
the whole you know, warranty and service planning, coding. Yeah,
did you tell the second dealership what happened at the
first one? I did not, No, and not yet. May
they're listening. That's a great So you've got it. You've
got a great car.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
You got it for a little substantially less money.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Oh yeah, five thousand dollars less. And it's a really,
it's a it's a beautiful car. And I got to
say the guys at and and again I don't know
if they're an advertiser or not, but Sasha Conrad, Brian
and his wife is a big radio fan, a Milka
is man. I've had the best experience of my life.
(16:05):
I looked for a car for three years and I
finally found it over at Star. But it was unbelievable
to have, you know, to go to a dealership and
get hammered like that, like it was nineteen seventy two. Sure,
because and again, because of the Internet, I could easily
go on and bury that guy, or I could say
(16:27):
the name of the dealership right here and try to
bury him. But I hate doing that. You're a better
man than I am for now, That me too, man.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
I mean they're getting totally lucky because that is so illegal,
is it really? Yes?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Oh I didn't know it was. Basically since they still
have it available. Yeah, it's still available. It's still on
the lot, and they told me they sold it for
much more than the actual price they gave it. It's
still available and at the lower price that they first advertised. Oh,
I could look that up real quick. All right, I'll
look it up during this commercial break, and I'll tell
(17:03):
you whether that car is still available at that low
price that they gave me. Oh that's great, Okay, that's great.
But I have there's a whole text trail a half
of it, and I was just I was. I was
super sad that that crap is still going on. But
it has a great Hollywood ending. I love that. But
those guys really saved me over there.
Speaker 7 (17:24):
Yeah, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I A M six forty Beellio has walked in. That's
always trouble. Mark Thompson is here, what's going on.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
All right, now, oh we had a because I have
lawyers for you who demand legal Actually right, behalf as
on the on the car thing.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
We can do that after best saying okay, all right,
pass as with us, always get we're getting them on. Okay.
So in the meantime, but what are you saying? What
is happening this great video on? Oh that's great? All right, Sean?
Did you have to interrupt with that? I didn't feel
it was really interruption. Worry, okay, all right. David for
(18:08):
the LA Dodgers is with us. David Vass how you
move broadcast day.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
I'm doing great live at Dodgers Stadium where the Dodgers
and the Seattle Mariners are getting ready for the second
game of a three game series. So everything's great out here.
The Dodgers have their players healthy, tim and things are
getting ready to take off for the boys in Blue.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Mark Thompson is with us as well. I hope that
you don't mind that.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
Well, this is a complete ambush. Okay, we'll tell you this.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Okay. Justin Turner first game back since he was released
by the Dodgers.
Speaker 8 (18:44):
Wasn't he was not released? They allowed him. I would
say they could not come to contractual terms a couple
of years ago. The Dodgers offered him a number that
he felt he wanted more, they decided to go in
a different direction. Justin Turner signed with the Boston Red
Sox last year. They also did not bring him back,
(19:05):
so we signed with the Toronto Blue Jays, and in
the middle of this season, Justin Turner was traded to
the Seattle Mariners, which was definitely a silver lining because
the Dodgers schedule did not take the Red Sox to
La last year and the Dodgers went to Toronto this year.
So if it wasn't for the Blue Jays trading Justin
(19:28):
Turner to the Seattle Mariners, we still would not have
Justin Turner's return to Dodgers Stadium. For last night, it
was a special night before first pitch, the Dodgers played
all the highlights of his great nine year career with
the Dodgers. They presented him and his wife, Courtney with
a ten thousand dollars check to the Justin Turner Foundation.
(19:50):
A bunch of former teammates came out of the dugout
to present all that, so he addressed the crowd. So
it was one of those special nights before the game started.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
You know, I saw it. I was watching on TV.
I tape all the or record I should say, it's
no tape anymore. I record all the games, and I
was watching it, and I thought I heard Justin Turner
say I loved being a Dodger. I wished I'd retired
a Dodger. I wish I was still a Dodger. Is
that sort of the gist of that.
Speaker 8 (20:18):
Yeah. I asked him whether or not he could see
himself retiring as a Dodger, and he took it as
some ceremonial. You know, I'll sign a one day contract
when it's all said and done. But I know Dodger
fans would love to add Turner play his final season
with the Dodgers and have a play. Let me a moment, bunny.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Look, you've been around baseball a long time. When a
guy comes back to a home field that he played,
you know, in this case, nine years on, and there's
a big celebration. They give him a check for ten
thousand dollars for his charity. They asked his wife to
come out. There's a standing ovation where he comes up
to bat the first time and he says oh man,
I wish I retired as a Dodger. I wish I
(20:59):
never left. I wish I was part of this team.
When he goes back on the Seattle dugout, do they
look at him like, hey, what's going on with you, Bob?
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Well? I maybe a little bit, a little bit as
before the anthem started, he was on the Dodger's side
of the field, So I think they stall understand that,
you know what, I'm with you guys. I'm trying to
help you win tonight, but my heart's with.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
The Dodge, right. You know, you were so kind about
ten years ago, maybe eight years ago. You were interviewing
Justin Turner down the hall and I'll always remember this,
and you said, hey, do you want to have Justin
Turner on? And you twisted his arms. So he came
in here and talked to me for like five minutes,
and I'll always remember that, dude.
Speaker 8 (21:41):
Yeah, that was actually the first time he was ever
at the radio station, coming in studio and did me
a favor that night. And from there Petro some money
hijacked my relationship with him and he never came back on.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
And I remember he came. I remember he came in
with his wife and his wife and he were very
sad because the day before they came in they were
living in a condo complex in Los Angeles. She was
walking her little tiny dog and that dog was attacked
by another dog in the complex and killed it.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
Oh yeah, I do remember that, Conway. Sorry, you know,
I kind of blocked that out, but yeah, that was
an emotional night. But they told came in the studio
and we went to have dinner after he went on
the Conway Show. So he was always very inclusive with me.
He always h included me in a lot of things
that media members are not included in, as far as
(22:37):
the inside stuff with the Dodger players in the clubhouse.
And I'll always be grateful for that and show I
really hope you. So a lot of people Conway believed
that in his future is managing the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Oh no, okay, all right, that's a good deal.
Speaker 8 (22:55):
It may not be as a player, but a lot
of people believe that once Dave Roberts is done managing
the Dodgers, that Justin Turner may have an opportunity three
or four or five years from now to take over.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Would that be the first redheaded red bearded manager. Wow,
that's like a question if anybody knows. Yeah, sorry, what
is the best? Say? What's the answer?
Speaker 8 (23:22):
Yeah, I don't know. I would say no, I would
say that would be the first one. I mean, there
was Red Barber before Vince Scully, but yeah, that would
be the first ging cher manager.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
I missed the old days where a telecast would show
the box score right before they went to commercial because
I couldn't figure out because I fast forward through some
of the game, I couldn't figure out how far the
no hitter and how many hits Seattle had because the
old days they would have runs, hits and airs before
they went to commercial, and they don't do that anymore.
Speaker 8 (23:59):
Really, I never noticed that. You know, I'm not watching
it as closely as you are, but I'll pass that
along to Joe Davis. All right, make sure they get
that going.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Because it looked like there was a no hitter going
to the fourth or fifth thing and ending and I
couldn't figure it out.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
That's a great point. Yeah, you want to see how
many hits are going on inn by any You're right,
that's right, you know, again, proving that you are a
baseball fan and know a lot more than what you
lead on to the league.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Yeah, do you have any other notes for to anybody?
Help me? And I will say you help me with Toddy,
I will say that you're getting a kind of a
promotion this year. You're doing more TV this year than
you've ever done in the past.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
Yeah, it's been a fun opportunity where I've been able
to do about fifteen twenty games sideline reporting, and it's
kind of a great change of pace for the players
to have a different voice down there, and certainly a
new challenge for me. But I love doing the post
game Dodger talk because it's more of a blank camp
is to paint every night and express myself.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
My favorite thing in the world, and I don't think
I've ever told you this is when you're talking to
one of the players who either doesn't want to talk
to you or doesn't have much to say, and you
bust his balls the entire time, and I'm laughing my
ass off.
Speaker 8 (25:18):
Yeah, you got you gotta put on a show, You
got to promote the game. You're just going to be
a dust. It's not gonna work. I'm not going to
allow it.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Conway, My favorite thing is Whenny he takes calls from
the public.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Oh yeah, he rips them.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Yeah, he gives them. They got to take their medicine.
If I say, calls it straight, you know what I mean.
Sometimes you just gotta call the balls and strikes.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Buddy, after the game. The best example of what Mark
Thompson just said is that analogy. By the way, Yeah,
what Mark Thompson just gave you this huge compliment. The
best you ever did was when they were arguing about
about the sho Heo Tani home run that went into
right field pavilion and you were yelling at this guy
saying they don't offer auth dedicate anything that goes in
(26:01):
the stands, you idiot.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
Wasn't that the most ridiculous thing?
Speaker 1 (26:07):
It was crazy.
Speaker 8 (26:07):
I mean, I don't understand why fans feel like they
deserve something from players for catching a milestone baseball that
day hit.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
That's wild. But I really appreciate coming on. I know
you've got a game, so I'll let you go, but
you're always welcome here. We'd love seeing you on TV.
And then that little promotional to give you this year.
Speaker 8 (26:29):
I'll never forget the little people like Mark Thompson.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
That's funny, all right, there he goes David Vasay with
the La Dodgers watching again tonight, Seattle again tonight. Yeah,
I'm gonna go and watching episode nine hundred beers and
talk to your lawyer friends about suing that car dealer.
Speaker 7 (26:48):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KF
I am six.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Forty big gong with you, all right. I told you
a true story about I've been looking for car for
three years and I became obsessed with looking. I'd love looking,
I'd love the hunt, you know. I love looking websites
by you know, seeing cars around, you know, the nation
on CarMax or whatever it was. And I finally I
found a car I really liked. I liked the price.
(27:16):
I called the guy who said's available. He showed me
the price, He showed me the car. Come pick it up.
And when you sent you text, there's a whole text
thread up. Yeah, And I showed Mark the whole text
thread and he said, you know it's all yours, Come
pick it up. I get there and they wash it up,
they gassed it up, they wash it and then I'm
looking at other cars and then he says, about forty
(27:36):
minutes into it, it deals not going to happen that
that car was sold to somebody else for a lot
more money. And but would you like to buy this
car over here? And I said, I got so demoralized.
I was. I was walking away to get in my car,
and I have this eighteen year old you know navigator
that's falling apart. There's duct tape on it. And I
(27:58):
just felt like a complete loser. And then I got
screwed over like that again from you know, these guys
and I and again I wasn't pissed. I was initially pissed,
but when I I was driving home, I was sad
that that still goes on and and it hasn't been
addressed or fixed, that that you shouldn't treat people like that,
(28:20):
you know, when when you when you make a deal
like that, even if you lose a couple of grand
on the car, or if you don't make as much.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
As you Yeah, they advertised the car, they told you
they had it. You got there, and then they said,
oh we sold their car.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
I even sat in the car. He gave me the keys,
I sat in it, you know, started it up. I go, oh,
this is a great card, Like this car goes great.
He goes, you know, we got a deal. Yeah, and
it says it, I'm going to go get it cleaned
up for you. And then meantime you're knocking around the lot.
And then and then old guy, an older guy comes
out with an envelope and he says, oh, that car
is not available. We just sold it to somebody else
(28:52):
for a lot more than you were going to pay
for it, and just walked away, never said you know, sorry,
you know, can we make it up to you? Can
we you know, maybe show something else. It was.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
It was an odd Uh. So my friend who's a lawyer,
heard that story. Is that right? She says, Legally he
has to sell him the car? Dieurageous sue the dealership,
she says, preserve the conversation in writing, confirming what happened,
copy the dealership owner and corporate. She said, it's a
(29:24):
sick story. He's entitled to specific performance plus possible punitive damage. Wow,
especially if he has those texts.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Which you do, Tim, I got him right here.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
I would not have been as nice about it as
Tim was. Obviously, Yeah, he should pursue this, but it
seems like a lot of time to do that. He says,
even if I showed Mark the text. You saw it,
even if he's doing it as a public service preventing
the same thing from happening to someone else.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Take this up, Tim, You need to be This is
your cost. It might be to you, it might be
might be able to save other people from that headache.
But I showed what You're gonna puss out, probably, you know,
because my whole life I have a policy where I
don't sue people and nobody sues me. And I've gone
(30:20):
sixty to fifty years fair enough with the that policy.
It happens to work so far. Knock on wood, you know.
But I showed Mark. I showed you the price of
the car. I showed you to the car, and they
even showed me the exact car and said, yeah, it's Vail,
come pick it up.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Yeah, they said, what time can you get here? Showed
him the car. Yeah, it's it really is outrageous.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
It is still the same price as no, no, now
it's now it's forty five. They jacked it up by
six grand, not ten. So they lied there too. Yeah,
that's right. And they said they sold it, which obviously
they haven't. It's I matched the vein number. It's the
same vein number.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
You got to at least uh, tell me again the
name of the place off air so I can make sure.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Okay, well, there are only so many Lincoln dealerships. I
would think, yeah, well I didn't mention it was a
Lincoln ship. But no it was. I don't even know
if it was. I assumed it was. Well, now it is.
I thought you said car it was CarMax. No, no, no, no,
no no no. I I've had enough, no, I said,
I go to CarMax. I go to the one in
(31:25):
Chatsworth I have. I'm on a I'm on a triangle
with CarMax. I go to one in Burbank.
Speaker 8 (31:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Then I go to one Duarte. Then I go to
one in Chatsworth. Then I go to one Burbank Duarte, Chatsworth.
And I keep doing this. Yeah, you love I love
car backs. Just go to look at cars without people
busting your balls. It's great, you know, but you got
I have a trick though, if you want to go
onto a car lot and and you want to look
at cars without anybody hassling you, I have the trick
(31:56):
and it works every single time, every time, and we can.
I'm going to tell you what that trick is if
you want to go to a car dealership and not
be bothered by the salespeople. This trick has worked for
me twenty five plus times, and every time it works
one time. I'll tell you about me and my wife
once where I'll tell you that real quick. My wife
(32:18):
and I went to a car dealership and we said, hey,
let when the sale guys come up, when the sharks
come up, let's do sign language to each other. And
they think, you know that we're so we started sign language.
The sales guy new sign light. Oh that's just great.
Our tails between our legs, Oh that's just great, and
(32:41):
walked away. Oh that's just terrific. It was horrible. One
of the most brutal days of my life. Wacome back.
I will tell you of one. It works one hundred
percent of the time to get these guys to stop bothering.
Barber Life on Conway, Tom's More and I Can't Fighting
Super Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now
(33:02):
you can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. All right,
let's get into this road rage release guy. Everybody saw
this video a couple of years ago of this guy
going around beating the hell out of mostly women. You know,
upstanding guy. His idea was, when he got into any
(00:25):
kind of road rates, you take a crowbar out and
try to break the guy's windshield or side window. And
he was sentenced to five years in prison because he
attacked so many people, and he had a previous record,
And now it looks like he might be out in
the next month or so.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
Daniel Radomak, he's currently in prison, but he could be
eligible for parole any day now. Videos of him went
viral last year as he terrorized some drivers across La County.
That's him beating the hell out of a windshoop and
he will remember this series the violent road rage attacks.
(01:03):
Radomac was seen sometimes using a metal pipe to vandalize cars.
Ten people actually reached out to us saying they were attacked,
most of them were women. His road reach rampage resulted
in convictions on several felony counts. Including criminal threats, vandalism,
and elder abuse.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Oh boy, and this guy's had a previous record, a
lot of previous incidents. Run into with the cops, he
could get out.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
The DA's office says Radomac had steroids and thirty thousand
dollars in his car once he was searched after an
incident in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I'd love, I respect the guy rolling around with thirty
grand you know, I don't know, but probably gambling guy.
Don't you think gambling or drugs? Maybe? Yeah, no, kind
of now he has a LinkLine. But you know, if
you're selling drugs or doing drugs, you you've got to
really keep a low profile. You can't get out of
your car ands beat the hell out of it.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
That's true, that's a good part. You got to really
really relax. But the steroids thing, that'll I think pump
up your maybe yeah're right a threshold.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Yeah yeah.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
You know.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
What's a really good friend of yours if you're buying
or selling drugs. The speed limit, Yeah, speed limit. Get
in that speed limit and just sit there, sit there. Oh.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
He has a lengthy criminal history that spans and nearly
two decades and crosses several states and jurisdictions. The Grand
Court granted him four hundred and twenty four days of
pre sentenced credit for time served while awaiting sentencing, and
according to online records, Radamac's earliest eligible date for parole
(02:34):
is this month.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
Wow, that guy might get out.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Jeez, man, whew, what a life that kind of may
him and you can still skate.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
You think you'll go back to mischieff. You think you'll
come out and change, man.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Well, I think that I'd bet the trend, which is
that he'll continue.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
You think so, yeah, I do, all right? Well, I
think he's trouble and trouble will gets you more trouble.
He might be amongst this soon, so be careful out there.
Michael Madson's in the news. He's been arrested.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
You know who he is, right, He plays crazy when
he's in films, like he was in Reservoir Dogs years ago.
I kill Bill, I think, yeah, right, he always plays
that extreme guy.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Right. Well, now he's taken that off stage, is that right? Yeah,
he's being He was arrested in Malibu on charges of
domestic battery after a disagreement with his wife. Malibu Lost
Hills Sheriff station responded to a call after midnight on
Saturday this previous Saturday, with the actor sixty six being
(03:38):
arrested on a charge relating to the use of force
or violence against a cohabitant. The BBC reported that the
authorities were informed of the family disturbance, with local department
claiming the woman alleged quote her husband pushed her and
locked her out of the house Fred Flintstone style or no,
(04:00):
Wilma flint Stone.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Wilma locked Fred out, which is probably a better move
when you're the guy.
Speaker 1 (04:04):
I think you're doing a little more. Yeah, who locked
you out?
Speaker 3 (04:06):
I think Wilma. Yeah, because he's yelling Wilma yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Right, yeah, yeah, but how did I don't remember how
he got you know, he got Oh, he got tricked
to going out of the house. He had that those
big ribs he was gonna eat. Remember that big in
the opening. Yeah, it toppled the car. It was so yeah, exactly, Yeah,
I mean that's the big as Yeah. Everything was bigger
back then. Yeah. It could have been like a Bronosaurus
rib prehistoric. Yeah. But that is a great show. I
(04:33):
mean it's really sexist. You couldn't do that show nowadays.
The flint Stones. But no, to go back and listen
to it. It's great. And you know, I never knew
that that what's his name, the Martian? Uh oh yeah,
you're you're power Gazoo.
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Yeah gazoo was Harvey Corman. Yeah, that's that's really well
and Fred and Barney. The whole show is like the Honeymooners,
the Jackie Gleason Show, but it was just animated and
done prehistoric time.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Let me let me bring this up for you here,
and you're gonna listen to Let's see stones. Okay, you're
gonna listen to this. It's a kazoo from the Flintstones.
And again I didn't know this, I think, until you
told me that it's actually Harvey Korman that does the
Great Kazoo.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Oh my god, great character, great moment.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
It's all right here it is the Great Kazoo is
Harvey Korman. Oh mighty kazoo. I'm like a big, juicy
Bronta Berger. Hey it works.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
How about twenty bucks? Hey, I want a beautiful new
dress for my wife.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
That's Barney me too. I want a beautiful new dress
for my wife. I like a gym set for Bambim.
Speaker 5 (05:48):
I'd like a new doll for pebbles. We need some
cotton furniture.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
We need a new dining room, set.
Speaker 5 (05:56):
New golf clubs, a fishing pole.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
Here's the Great Kazoo talk, which is now approaching an
officer of the law.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I believe you explain all this to him. That's Harvey Corman,
the Great Gazoo, the officer of the law. Stuff. Oh well,
it just did, but we just found it.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
Oh you found it out here in the middle of
the road, right citation number one.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Fishing pole and place.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
The gazoo gave him all that stuff. And now the
cops has word you get all this stuff. They don't
have any receipts for it. Here and the gazoo. No
one can see gazoo except for them.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
Here's the take, heed, Greed brings trouble, which is now
approaching an officer of the law.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
I believe that's the Great brings trouble, Harvey Korman, man,
That is wild. I never I never put two and
two together. I watched that as a kid a billion
billion times. And here's the here's more, here's better audio.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
Maigre. You sometimes you're supposed to give us what we want.
Get you let us get into terrible trouble.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Certainly, how else are you going to learn the difference
between what you.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
Really want and what you think you want? Say that
again to be a favor, sleep on it. But that's
Harvey Karmon, so good, so good. That's such a great.
Speaker 6 (07:22):
Zoom says, fucking go wrong, Bonnie, that is such a
great court The voice of Barney is mel Blank.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, I think when he passed away they replaced him
with a different Barney.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
That's great, but you're right. It is the Honeymooners animation
really great. It's right and also another thing you can't
do on TV anymore. Threatened to punch your wife. Oh
my god, I just can't.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
I mean, you can't imagine, you know, to the Moon
with Alice, Alice.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
You would cock his fist and say, to the Moon
with you, wind up his like he was going to
punch her in. You can't do that nowadays, No, you cannot.
I mean, he imagine going to a studio and you say, hey,
I got this great animation and the hook line, the
you know, the tagline, and his saying is he's going
to punch his wife in the face.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
And they're like they go and then they said no, no,
but we all know the audience knows he'll never do it.
He we know he loves her. I don't care, Well,
you cannot do that. Yeah, I don't care if we
know that he's not going to do it.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
So his hook is what, h Well, he's gonna he's
gonna crank his fist up and threaten to punch her
in the face.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Ah.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Can we replace that with I don't know, like a
dog that likes to, you know, do funny things or tricks. Yes, yes,
we can do that. We can do that. All these
guys are. It was a very nineteen fifty. It was
a wild wild man.
Speaker 7 (08:47):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Did you buy a new car? Yeah? You weren't you
going to looking for a car for a while?
Speaker 8 (08:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Yeah, yeah yeah. I'll tell you a quick story. I've
been looking for a new car for three years and
I go to CarMax, you know, in Chatsworth, I go
to the one in Dwarde. I go to the one
in Burbank. And because CarMax changes out their cars so often,
if you go the next week, you'll see all new cars.
I don't know how they do it. I don't know
(09:16):
why they do it, but they do it, and so
I love going to CarMax. One of the reasons I
love it is they never there's never a sales guy
that comes up to you and says, hey, can I
help you out?
Speaker 3 (09:26):
Not once, because You've got all the information you need
on the internet.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Well, I think yeah. And when you walk around Carmax's lot,
they don't bother you. You can walk around for hours
without anyone stopping you and asking you do you need
any help? And that's beautiful. That's one of the reasons
I go. I bought my daughter. We bought our daughter
a car from CarMax. Had a great deal with that,
and so I finally found a car that I liked.
(09:53):
And I don't want to go into great detail. I
don't want to bust the other people that work their
their balls. I just want and I'm not going to
say the name of the dealership. But I finally found
the car I wanted. It's about twenty five miles from
my house, and I called the guy up and I
don't like to leave my name or number, you know,
(10:14):
when they say for more information, leave your name and number.
I don't like to do it because I don't like
a bunch of calls and you know, sales guys banging
on you. But I did with this car because I
really liked this car. And I and I talked to
him or texted him back and forth. I said, I
gave him the VIN number and the picture of the car.
I said, is this car available? And he said yes.
I said, what is the price? He said, it's thirty
nine nine hundred dollars. I said, I'll take that car
(10:37):
sight unseen, I know the car. I'll take it. I'll
come and pay for it tomorrow. We'll figure out the financing.
So he said what time can you get there? And
I said between four thirty and five on Sunday. I'll
be there. This is on Friday, and I said I'll
be there Sunday between four thirty and five. He calls
me on Saturday to make sure I'm coming, and then
text me on Sunday said he sure you comeing some
(10:59):
to stay late. I said, I'll be there. I get
there at five at four thirty five, about an hour
from my house in my burbank. I show up. The
car is sitting right there I get in it. It's beautiful,
it smells new, it's brand new, it has four miles
on it. Beautiful car. And I said I'll take it,
and he goes great, and he said they're going to
(11:21):
take it off to get gassed and washed, and then
we'll have it ready for you. I said okay, and
he said, you want to see anything else while you're
While we're waiting, it's gonna be twenty minutes. I said,
oh yeah, I love looking at new cars. So I
looked at other cars there on the lot, some used,
some new, and and then he said he I was
in it. I was sitting in a used car, and
he says, how about this car? Do you like this car?
(11:44):
I said no, I'm gonna pick the one that that
I came for, but I really do like this car.
I want to see it. I want to see the
inside of it. And then we're walking back to where
that car was and it's not there, and I said,
is it's still getting gassed and washed and spent about
forty minutes and he said, well, the price on that
car was a mistake online. I said, oh, all right,
(12:09):
well what's the new price. He said, well, I can't
even give you the new price because we already sold it.
I said, but wait a minute, but you were walking
around with me for forty minutes. Nobody came up to
you and said that to you, so you knew before
I got here and we started walking around that that
car was sold. He said, Look, it's a long story,
but that car is not available anymore, and it's going
(12:30):
to be ten thousand dollars more than it was, and
we already sold it to somebody else. I said, well,
I said, but but I'm looking. I looked online. It's
still available online. And by the way, today on Tuesday,
I looked up to that car, it's still available. So
it's just the decoy to bring you in. I don't
know what it was. It was really weird. Well, I mean,
it seems deliberate that it was a decoy to bring
(12:51):
you in. And then the guy comes out and he said,
we'd never sell that car for that price. I don't
know what the guy's here told you, but we'd never
sell you that car for that price. That's a forty
seven thousand dollars car. And I said I and I said,
you know what I said, UF and guys are all
the same and I left, and and I when I
was driving home, I was so I wasn't angry. I
(13:12):
was just sad that that kind of crap still goes on.
You know, it's outrageous. I mean, it really is. That
he he made me drive, you know, the twenty five
miles to his dealership, just to tell me that the
car is not available. It's not going to be sold
to you and you can better find something else because
that deal is gone. And so I'm driving home and
(13:36):
I'm again, I'm not pissed. I'm really sad that I
thought that that kind of crap because the Internet keeps
people honest. You know, you can go write reviews on
what a crappy dealership that was. Sure, I thought that
that crap was over, you know, bringing you out to
a dealership and then totally fing you. I thought that
was gone. But it doesn't. It exists. It happens all
(13:59):
the time. Did the guy call you again and say, hey,
I'm sorry about that. What happened?
Speaker 3 (14:03):
And I'm nothing, let me make it up to you.
Not a word, not a word, nothing, And you're i
think exercising a lot of restraint by not mentioning.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I mean, you have a it's a platform.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
And by the way, it's not defamatory at all, because
I got it all on text. Yeah, because you're you know,
it's an actual thing and it's true.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
But I also know how hard it is to run
a business. And I don't want to run the guy down.
It might just been that one guy who is an idiot.
I don't know, I don't know. Yeah, no, and I
get and I get that.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
I think it is hard, but it's also but it's
also it's hard to run a legitimate business when you're
up against businesses like that.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
That's right. So on the way back, I called there's
another dealer, Star Forward in Glendale, and I said, hey,
I saw this car online. How much is this car?
And I thought he was going to tell me, you know,
forty eight thousand dollars like that one that they jacked
(14:58):
the price up on. And he said, if you come
in today, we have that car listed at thirty nine.
If you come in and buy it before we close today,
I'll give you that car for thirty four thousand dollars. Wow.
And I thought, Okay, everything happens for a reason, that is,
so you got that car. I went into I love
this Star Ford. I had the greatest, greatest experience of
(15:22):
my life buying a car, and it took me about
about a half hour or so. They didn't give me
the whole you know, warranty and service planning, coding. Yeah,
did you tell the second dealership what happened at the
first one? I did not, No, and not yet. May
they're listening. That's a great So you've got it. You've
got a great car.
Speaker 3 (15:42):
You got it for a little substantially less money.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Oh yeah, five thousand dollars less. And it's a really,
it's a it's a beautiful car. And I got to
say the guys at and and again I don't know
if they're an advertiser or not, but Sasha Conrad, Brian
and his wife is a big radio fan, a Milka
is man. I've had the best experience of my life.
(16:05):
I looked for a car for three years and I
finally found it over at Star. But it was unbelievable
to have, you know, to go to a dealership and
get hammered like that, like it was nineteen seventy two. Sure,
because and again, because of the Internet, I could easily
go on and bury that guy, or I could say
(16:27):
the name of the dealership right here and try to
bury him. But I hate doing that. You're a better
man than I am for now, That me too, man.
Speaker 4 (16:36):
I mean they're getting totally lucky because that is so illegal,
is it really? Yes?
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Oh I didn't know it was. Basically since they still
have it available. Yeah, it's still available. It's still on
the lot, and they told me they sold it for
much more than the actual price they gave it. It's
still available and at the lower price that they first advertised. Oh,
I could look that up real quick. All right, I'll
look it up during this commercial break, and I'll tell
(17:03):
you whether that car is still available at that low
price that they gave me. Oh that's great, Okay, that's great.
But I have there's a whole text trail a half
of it, and I was just I was. I was
super sad that that crap is still going on. But
it has a great Hollywood ending. I love that. But
those guys really saved me over there.
Speaker 7 (17:24):
Yeah, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I A M six forty Beellio has walked in. That's
always trouble. Mark Thompson is here, what's going on.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
All right, now, oh we had a because I have
lawyers for you who demand legal Actually right, behalf as
on the on the car thing.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
We can do that after best saying okay, all right,
pass as with us, always get we're getting them on. Okay.
So in the meantime, but what are you saying? What
is happening this great video on? Oh that's great? All right, Sean?
Did you have to interrupt with that? I didn't feel
it was really interruption. Worry, okay, all right. David for
(18:08):
the LA Dodgers is with us. David Vass how you
move broadcast day.
Speaker 8 (18:13):
I'm doing great live at Dodgers Stadium where the Dodgers
and the Seattle Mariners are getting ready for the second
game of a three game series. So everything's great out here.
The Dodgers have their players healthy, tim and things are
getting ready to take off for the boys in Blue.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Mark Thompson is with us as well. I hope that
you don't mind that.
Speaker 8 (18:34):
Well, this is a complete ambush. Okay, we'll tell you this.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
Okay. Justin Turner first game back since he was released
by the Dodgers.
Speaker 8 (18:44):
Wasn't he was not released? They allowed him. I would
say they could not come to contractual terms a couple
of years ago. The Dodgers offered him a number that
he felt he wanted more, they decided to go in
a different direction. Justin Turner signed with the Boston Red
Sox last year. They also did not bring him back,
(19:05):
so we signed with the Toronto Blue Jays, and in
the middle of this season, Justin Turner was traded to
the Seattle Mariners, which was definitely a silver lining because
the Dodgers schedule did not take the Red Sox to
La last year and the Dodgers went to Toronto this year.
So if it wasn't for the Blue Jays trading Justin
(19:28):
Turner to the Seattle Mariners, we still would not have
Justin Turner's return to Dodgers Stadium. For last night, it
was a special night before first pitch, the Dodgers played
all the highlights of his great nine year career with
the Dodgers. They presented him and his wife, Courtney with
a ten thousand dollars check to the Justin Turner Foundation.
(19:50):
A bunch of former teammates came out of the dugout
to present all that, so he addressed the crowd. So
it was one of those special nights before the game started.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
You know, I saw it. I was watching on TV.
I tape all the or record I should say, it's
no tape anymore. I record all the games, and I
was watching it, and I thought I heard Justin Turner
say I loved being a Dodger. I wished I'd retired
a Dodger. I wish I was still a Dodger. Is
that sort of the gist of that.
Speaker 8 (20:18):
Yeah. I asked him whether or not he could see
himself retiring as a Dodger, and he took it as
some ceremonial. You know, I'll sign a one day contract
when it's all said and done. But I know Dodger
fans would love to add Turner play his final season
with the Dodgers and have a play. Let me a moment, bunny.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Look, you've been around baseball a long time. When a
guy comes back to a home field that he played,
you know, in this case, nine years on, and there's
a big celebration. They give him a check for ten
thousand dollars for his charity. They asked his wife to
come out. There's a standing ovation where he comes up
to bat the first time and he says oh man,
I wish I retired as a Dodger. I wish I
(20:59):
never left. I wish I was part of this team.
When he goes back on the Seattle dugout, do they
look at him like, hey, what's going on with you, Bob?
Speaker 8 (21:07):
Well? I maybe a little bit, a little bit as
before the anthem started, he was on the Dodger's side
of the field, So I think they stall understand that,
you know what, I'm with you guys. I'm trying to
help you win tonight, but my heart's with.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
The Dodge, right. You know, you were so kind about
ten years ago, maybe eight years ago. You were interviewing
Justin Turner down the hall and I'll always remember this,
and you said, hey, do you want to have Justin
Turner on? And you twisted his arms. So he came
in here and talked to me for like five minutes,
and I'll always remember that, dude.
Speaker 8 (21:41):
Yeah, that was actually the first time he was ever
at the radio station, coming in studio and did me
a favor that night. And from there Petro some money
hijacked my relationship with him and he never came back on.
Speaker 1 (21:54):
And I remember he came. I remember he came in
with his wife and his wife and he were very
sad because the day before they came in they were
living in a condo complex in Los Angeles. She was
walking her little tiny dog and that dog was attacked
by another dog in the complex and killed it.
Speaker 8 (22:13):
Oh yeah, I do remember that, Conway. Sorry, you know,
I kind of blocked that out, but yeah, that was
an emotional night. But they told came in the studio
and we went to have dinner after he went on
the Conway Show. So he was always very inclusive with me.
He always h included me in a lot of things
that media members are not included in, as far as
(22:37):
the inside stuff with the Dodger players in the clubhouse.
And I'll always be grateful for that and show I
really hope you. So a lot of people Conway believed
that in his future is managing the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Oh no, okay, all right, that's a good deal.
Speaker 8 (22:55):
It may not be as a player, but a lot
of people believe that once Dave Roberts is done managing
the Dodgers, that Justin Turner may have an opportunity three
or four or five years from now to take over.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Would that be the first redheaded red bearded manager. Wow,
that's like a question if anybody knows. Yeah, sorry, what
is the best? Say? What's the answer?
Speaker 8 (23:22):
Yeah, I don't know. I would say no, I would
say that would be the first one. I mean, there
was Red Barber before Vince Scully, but yeah, that would
be the first ging cher manager.
Speaker 1 (23:37):
I missed the old days where a telecast would show
the box score right before they went to commercial because
I couldn't figure out because I fast forward through some
of the game, I couldn't figure out how far the
no hitter and how many hits Seattle had because the
old days they would have runs, hits and airs before
they went to commercial, and they don't do that anymore.
Speaker 8 (23:59):
Really, I never noticed that. You know, I'm not watching
it as closely as you are, but I'll pass that
along to Joe Davis. All right, make sure they get
that going.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Because it looked like there was a no hitter going
to the fourth or fifth thing and ending and I
couldn't figure it out.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
That's a great point. Yeah, you want to see how
many hits are going on inn by any You're right,
that's right, you know, again, proving that you are a
baseball fan and know a lot more than what you
lead on to the league.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Yeah, do you have any other notes for to anybody?
Help me? And I will say you help me with Toddy,
I will say that you're getting a kind of a
promotion this year. You're doing more TV this year than
you've ever done in the past.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
Yeah, it's been a fun opportunity where I've been able
to do about fifteen twenty games sideline reporting, and it's
kind of a great change of pace for the players
to have a different voice down there, and certainly a
new challenge for me. But I love doing the post
game Dodger talk because it's more of a blank camp
is to paint every night and express myself.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
My favorite thing in the world, and I don't think
I've ever told you this is when you're talking to
one of the players who either doesn't want to talk
to you or doesn't have much to say, and you
bust his balls the entire time, and I'm laughing my
ass off.
Speaker 8 (25:18):
Yeah, you got you gotta put on a show, You
got to promote the game. You're just going to be
a dust. It's not gonna work. I'm not going to
allow it.
Speaker 3 (25:26):
Conway, My favorite thing is Whenny he takes calls from
the public.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Oh yeah, he rips them.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Yeah, he gives them. They got to take their medicine.
If I say, calls it straight, you know what I mean.
Sometimes you just gotta call the balls and strikes.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Buddy, after the game. The best example of what Mark
Thompson just said is that analogy. By the way, Yeah,
what Mark Thompson just gave you this huge compliment. The
best you ever did was when they were arguing about
about the sho Heo Tani home run that went into
right field pavilion and you were yelling at this guy
saying they don't offer auth dedicate anything that goes in
(26:01):
the stands, you idiot.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
Wasn't that the most ridiculous thing?
Speaker 1 (26:07):
It was crazy.
Speaker 8 (26:07):
I mean, I don't understand why fans feel like they
deserve something from players for catching a milestone baseball that
day hit.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
That's wild. But I really appreciate coming on. I know
you've got a game, so I'll let you go, but
you're always welcome here. We'd love seeing you on TV.
And then that little promotional to give you this year.
Speaker 8 (26:29):
I'll never forget the little people like Mark Thompson.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
That's funny, all right, there he goes David Vasay with
the La Dodgers watching again tonight, Seattle again tonight. Yeah,
I'm gonna go and watching episode nine hundred beers and
talk to your lawyer friends about suing that car dealer.
Speaker 7 (26:48):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KF
I am six.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Forty big gong with you, all right. I told you
a true story about I've been looking for car for
three years and I became obsessed with looking. I'd love looking,
I'd love the hunt, you know. I love looking websites
by you know, seeing cars around, you know, the nation
on CarMax or whatever it was. And I finally I
found a car I really liked. I liked the price.
(27:16):
I called the guy who said's available. He showed me
the price, He showed me the car. Come pick it up.
And when you sent you text, there's a whole text
thread up. Yeah, And I showed Mark the whole text
thread and he said, you know it's all yours, Come
pick it up. I get there and they wash it up,
they gassed it up, they wash it and then I'm
looking at other cars and then he says, about forty
(27:36):
minutes into it, it deals not going to happen that
that car was sold to somebody else for a lot
more money. And but would you like to buy this
car over here? And I said, I got so demoralized.
I was. I was walking away to get in my car,
and I have this eighteen year old you know navigator
that's falling apart. There's duct tape on it. And I
(27:58):
just felt like a complete loser. And then I got
screwed over like that again from you know, these guys
and I and again I wasn't pissed. I was initially pissed,
but when I I was driving home, I was sad
that that still goes on and and it hasn't been
addressed or fixed, that that you shouldn't treat people like that,
(28:20):
you know, when when you when you make a deal
like that, even if you lose a couple of grand
on the car, or if you don't make as much.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
As you Yeah, they advertised the car, they told you
they had it. You got there, and then they said,
oh we sold their car.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
I even sat in the car. He gave me the keys,
I sat in it, you know, started it up. I go, oh,
this is a great card, Like this car goes great.
He goes, you know, we got a deal. Yeah, and
it says it, I'm going to go get it cleaned
up for you. And then meantime you're knocking around the lot.
And then and then old guy, an older guy comes
out with an envelope and he says, oh, that car
is not available. We just sold it to somebody else
(28:52):
for a lot more than you were going to pay
for it, and just walked away, never said you know, sorry,
you know, can we make it up to you? Can
we you know, maybe show something else. It was.
Speaker 3 (29:02):
It was an odd Uh. So my friend who's a lawyer,
heard that story. Is that right? She says, Legally he
has to sell him the car? Dieurageous sue the dealership,
she says, preserve the conversation in writing, confirming what happened,
copy the dealership owner and corporate. She said, it's a
(29:24):
sick story. He's entitled to specific performance plus possible punitive damage. Wow,
especially if he has those texts.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Which you do, Tim, I got him right here.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
I would not have been as nice about it as
Tim was. Obviously, Yeah, he should pursue this, but it
seems like a lot of time to do that. He says,
even if I showed Mark the text. You saw it,
even if he's doing it as a public service preventing
the same thing from happening to someone else.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Take this up, Tim, You need to be This is
your cost. It might be to you, it might be
might be able to save other people from that headache.
But I showed what You're gonna puss out, probably, you know,
because my whole life I have a policy where I
don't sue people and nobody sues me. And I've gone
(30:20):
sixty to fifty years fair enough with the that policy.
It happens to work so far. Knock on wood, you know.
But I showed Mark. I showed you the price of
the car. I showed you to the car, and they
even showed me the exact car and said, yeah, it's Vail,
come pick it up.
Speaker 3 (30:38):
Yeah, they said, what time can you get here? Showed
him the car. Yeah, it's it really is outrageous.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
It is still the same price as no, no, now
it's now it's forty five. They jacked it up by
six grand, not ten. So they lied there too. Yeah,
that's right. And they said they sold it, which obviously
they haven't. It's I matched the vein number. It's the
same vein number.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
You got to at least uh, tell me again the
name of the place off air so I can make sure.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Okay, well, there are only so many Lincoln dealerships. I
would think, yeah, well I didn't mention it was a
Lincoln ship. But no it was. I don't even know
if it was. I assumed it was. Well, now it is.
I thought you said car it was CarMax. No, no, no, no,
no no no. I I've had enough, no, I said,
I go to CarMax. I go to the one in
(31:25):
Chatsworth I have. I'm on a I'm on a triangle
with CarMax. I go to one in Burbank.
Speaker 8 (31:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Then I go to one Duarte. Then I go to
one in Chatsworth. Then I go to one Burbank Duarte, Chatsworth.
And I keep doing this. Yeah, you love I love
car backs. Just go to look at cars without people
busting your balls. It's great, you know, but you got
I have a trick though, if you want to go
onto a car lot and and you want to look
at cars without anybody hassling you, I have the trick
(31:56):
and it works every single time, every time, and we can.
I'm going to tell you what that trick is if
you want to go to a car dealership and not
be bothered by the salespeople. This trick has worked for
me twenty five plus times, and every time it works
one time. I'll tell you about me and my wife
once where I'll tell you that real quick. My wife
(32:18):
and I went to a car dealership and we said, hey,
let when the sale guys come up, when the sharks
come up, let's do sign language to each other. And
they think, you know that we're so we started sign language.
The sales guy new sign light. Oh that's just great.
Our tails between our legs, Oh that's just great, and
(32:41):
walked away. Oh that's just terrific. It was horrible. One
of the most brutal days of my life. Wacome back.
I will tell you of one. It works one hundred
percent of the time to get these guys to stop bothering.
