Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Pup Day Yes Wednesday, which is terrific because that means
we're very we're closer to the end of this heat wave,
this horrible heat wave that we're experiencing in the beginning
of October. It's always a spirit killer. We thought we
were gonna have Halloween weather.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
We're not. We're not.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
We're having nineties ninety four ninety five. Hey, the San
Fernando Valley starting Thursday, ninety four, ninety two, ninety three,
ninety four, ninety three, The next five days all in
the nineties.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
Now.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
The one saving grace is that the sun is so
far down from its peak in the summer that we
don't have nine hours of ninety degrees, only like an
hour and a half two hours night does go down
to the mid sixties at night, so it does cool
off at night. The problem in the summer is when
it doesn't cool off at night and it only goes
(01:04):
down to eighty eighty five, and then that morning you
wake up and by the time you get up, you know,
showering off to work, it's already ninety five degrees out.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
That's not happening. That's not happening.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
So as long as we can get through till next Tuesday,
that or Monday, Monday and Tuesday will be the end
of the heat wave. And then listen to this. A
week from Friday in the San Fernando Valley the highest
seventy five degrees, the lowest fifty eight. Fifty eight is
the low in the San Fernando Valley one week from
(01:35):
the day after tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
So we got to get there, got to get there,
all right, Fernando.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Before we get our next story, Fernando Vealezuela pitching a
no hitter and Vince Gully makes the call.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Vinska up.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Fernando Vealezuela started pitching for the Dodgers in nineteen eighty
nineteen eighty, and then they won the World Series in
eighty one, and then they won the World Series in
eighty eight twice in the eighties, great, great, great decade
for the Dodgers. Here it is Fernando Valenzuela. If remember
back then, if you, if you're alive and you do
have a pretty good memory. The Dodgers are playing the Cardinals,
(02:11):
and who was it? Pat Pedro Guerrero was traded to
the Cardinals, and he came up to face Fernando Valezuela
in the ninth inning.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
There was a short chant Paidro paid Row as they
did in Boston in the eighty six World Series, to
try and taunt Strawberry, and now they're doing it to Guerrero,
hoping to distract him, hoping to upset him, hoping perhaps
to make him try too hard. Fernando ready in the
(02:44):
strike two pits is hit back to the box, dribbling.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
The second, Samuel on the bag cross the first double play.
Fernando Valenzuela has pitched a no hitter at ten seventeen
in the evening of June the twenty ninth, nineteen ninety.
If you have a sombrero, throw it to the sky.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Here we go, Fernando Venezuela, and nobody is better than
Vince Scully. Vince Gully just announced what it was and
then he shut up and he let the crowd, the
noise of the crowd, be the star of that of
that segment, and that was great for Nano. Vealezuela stepping
aside for his health. Hopefully we be back next year.
(03:58):
Calling the Dodger game. That's what we need, all right.
Bank of America was hacked. I was a victim of that.
Went in to look at my balance. Zero in my savings,
zero in my checking. Did it bother me?
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Not really?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
My really it This is pretty close to zero to
start with, but you might have more money in your account.
Got to check it out and make sure it's there.
Speaker 7 (04:21):
An outage is affecting thousands of Bank of America customers.
Many are reporting having trouble accessing their bank accounts online.
Some who could access their accounts were startled to see
zero balances. It's not clear how widespread the outage is,
but reports about a problem spiked around nine forty five
this morning on down Detector, which collects data on outages.
(04:42):
Bank of America has not come it and on the problem.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
They haven't, but I have and I was. I'm involved.
I'm involved.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
All right, Let's talk about this pea bandit. This is
Ballyot's favorite story of the day. A pea band it
is on the loose in Pasadena.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
You know, street art has been all the rage in
recent years. Right, Banksy has left this marked on sidewalks
and walls and now Pasadena apparently has struck gold. Apparently
they are flushed with what some but definitely not all,
are calling art.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
The pea Bandit.
Speaker 8 (05:18):
It's a stretch of Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena that really
doesn't stand up, but it certainly puts the pea in Pasadena.
Speaker 9 (05:26):
He's the right word to say, right.
Speaker 8 (05:28):
It is when you're talking about this guy, often referred
to as Pasadena's pea Bandit, responsible for placing bottles of
urine on this specific utility box over the past several years,
and not just one or two of them.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Welcome to Los Angeles. Have you're just getting off the
plane your first visit. This is what we're all about.
It is a nuthouse here in Los Angeles, a complete nuthouse.
Speaker 9 (05:52):
Stackson you know, nine ten eleven bottles.
Speaker 8 (05:56):
Great Ants and his buddy Derek Milton are about two
years into documenting the mysterious bottles, captivated by their placement,
their purpose, their color.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
This guy has got to be in radio somewhere. Bell Yeah,
what station does he work for?
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Do we know?
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Do they?
Speaker 2 (06:13):
They have? They said yet? No, gotta be a radio guy.
There's no way that this guy doesn't work full time
in radio.
Speaker 9 (06:20):
No way all different colors shades of you know, from
like an amber hue to like more of a healthy golden,
lighter yellow, but some are really dark and concerning.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
God, this guy's way too into the color of his urine. Certainly,
Oh my god, this guy, this guy may need a health.
Speaker 8 (06:41):
Check, okay, something the Pea Guy might want to get
checked out. But for Milton and Yansurah, the secrets of
cretor kept trying them in deeper and deeper. Hidden cameras
caught him one night, and that's when they learned he
wasn't just pulling up on the street.
Speaker 9 (06:56):
We saw a mysterious hand reach from over the wall
at you know, two in the morning, coming from the highwayside.
Speaker 8 (07:03):
That's the one thirty four freeway and not much of
a shoulder there. Earlier this year, the city of Pasadena
installed this steel pyramid on top of the utility box,
but it was quickly torn off and the bottles returned.
This second pyramid holding on but barely smashed enough to
still hold a bottle or two. Pea Guy's determination enough
(07:25):
to change how Milton in yen Surah look at him.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Nowh that guy that's his nickname, Pea Guy that's that's
the we have a nickname for the guy Pea.
Speaker 10 (07:34):
Guy's pea, guy Pea guy Pea.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
Guy's determination enough to change how Milton and Yen Surah
look at him.
Speaker 10 (07:41):
Now.
Speaker 9 (07:41):
We think he's an artist because I never really understood
stand art or.
Speaker 10 (07:45):
Really get art.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
I still don't.
Speaker 9 (07:48):
We think he's an artist.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Yeah, I think he's not.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I think he's a guy who is a weird obsession,
not much of an artist.
Speaker 10 (07:57):
We think he's an artist, he's not.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
He's loser.
Speaker 9 (08:01):
And when we couldn't figure out what was going on
and I couldn't get it, that's when we realized maybe.
Speaker 8 (08:06):
It's hard, it's a stretch, but maybe stream of consciousness
art regardless. The two turned to TikTok, posting their investigative
efforts and watching the views top six million.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Wow, man, this guy's on fire.
Speaker 8 (08:20):
The world seemingly joining them, and they're drive to find
the man with the Golden bladder, trying.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
To get it.
Speaker 10 (08:26):
That's good, find the man with the golden bladder.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Man with the golden bladder? Wasn't that it James Bond
moving like the fourth one? The golden bladder?
Speaker 11 (08:35):
Was that?
Speaker 12 (08:36):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Maybe I got it?
Speaker 10 (08:36):
Mixed up Man with the Golden bladder.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Man with the golden bladder? Yes, or was it Barnaby
Jones episode? It was Barnaby Joy Jones indeed, Man with
the golden bladder, Man with the golden bladder, trying to
get into it.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Wonderf he knew.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Golden throat, golden bladder, golden throat, golden throat, golden bladder.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
For trying to get into the TikTok A call of fame,
you'in kind of backfired.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
This guy's good, you'urin, you'urin right.
Speaker 9 (09:08):
Kind of us because now we're the PA guys. It's
not really all it's cracked up to be going everywhere
and see their people honk at you. They say, you're
the PA guys, and it's not really what we wanted
to be.
Speaker 6 (09:21):
Come out to you guys. Not bad, right, at least
you're number one.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
But it's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Bad the stream of consciousness, the Pea guy bad.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
Right, at least you're number one, number one. Two years ago.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Doing this, the TikTokers say they're all done, they're all
tapped out on this case. Reporting live in Pasady and
the Rob Hayes ABC seven.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I would that's great Rob Hayes, good terrific reporter, and
his assignment today was find out the guys who are looking.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
For the PA guy. The p guys looking for the
PA guy.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
That's right, all right, very good thing dong with them.
We're live on KFI. Don't forget. We have Bill Medley
coming on. The Righteous Brothers are set to appear in
Glendora for their final tour, the Love and Feeling Final Tour,
Farewell Tour, they're calling it, and we'll have more details
at six to five about fifty minutes. So what have
(10:19):
you got to do? Maybe you gotta go, Pete, I
don't know.
Speaker 13 (10:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Forty The Into a Dome, the new basketball arena in Inglewood,
home of your Los Angeles Clippers. Man, they're going to
be serving liquor all night long.
Speaker 11 (10:41):
If it sounds like the owner of the Clippers, Steve Balmer,
has something to do with it, it's because he does.
The billionaire's company Murphy's Bowl sponsored.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
The bill AB thirty two oh.
Speaker 11 (10:52):
Six was introduced by assembly Member Tina mckinner of Inglewood,
and it carves out an exemption from the state's last
Call law allowing alcohol sales to continue from two am
to four am.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Wow, how about that, as.
Speaker 11 (11:06):
Long as the drinking is in a fully enclosed arena
with the seating capacity of at least eighteen thousand seats
and located in the city of Englewood. Now, conveniently, that
description matches only the Dome, which seats eighteen thousand and
will soon serve as the brand new, two billion dollar
home of the Clippers. The Kia Forum, also owned by Balmer,
(11:28):
will not have liquor serve till four am. So that's
sort of a lesson in business. Where you make enough
money and then you grease a politician and they give
you a carve out where you can serve liquor later
and make more money.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
That's how the United States works. If you don't like it,
there are a lot of other countries in this world
you can move to, but that's how we operate in
this country. You work your ass off, you grease the politicians,
and you make more money, and then you greet them again.
You make more money, they help you, you help them.
(12:06):
That's how we operate in this country. I know a
lot of people don't like it, but it's not going
to change, So don't get frustrated and try to change
it and make a big deal out of it and
sue the governor and sue the state of California. Just
sit back and relax. That's how we operate in this country.
Sorry again, if you don't like the system, a lot
(12:26):
of other systems out there. You're free to move around.
Is not the saying of Southwest Airlines. Yeah, Southwest Airlines
freeom move around. You can move to another country. But
that's how we put it together.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
In this country.
Speaker 11 (12:38):
Only seats seventeen thousand, five hundred and while the nearby
Sofi Stadium seats over seventy thousand.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
It's not enclosed, not fully enclosed.
Speaker 11 (12:46):
It's not a fully enclosed arena as required by the
bill right now, that would make me into it dome
literally the only place in the state for legal alcohol
sales after two am, so you can drink till.
Speaker 10 (12:57):
Four am, four in the morning.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
They should get rid of that stupid basketball team and
just to turn it into a big bar. They make
a lot more money if you knew that was the
only bar in California. Eighteen thousand is the capacity for
screw the team dump the team. Yeah, keep the bar. Yeah,
if that's the new rule, that's the biggest bar in
the United States. It's instantly the biggest bar in the
(13:23):
United States. And they have a special carve out where
they can serve liquor until four am. Enough with this,
Put the Clippers back at Staples or whatever it's called.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Didn't do it? What is it? Crypto? Now? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Put it enough with the team. Just a big kick
ass bar the into it.
Speaker 11 (13:41):
Bar supporters describe the bill as a way to stimulate
the local economy by extending alcohol sales during major events,
providing a boost to arena operators, vendors, and surrounding businesses
by Several advocacy groups opposing the bill argue it would
be a precursor to similar bills up and down.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
The state, eventually abolishing the.
Speaker 11 (14:00):
Century long established two am last call statewide.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
The Englewood City Council will have.
Speaker 11 (14:06):
The ultimate authority over whether to approve the exemption, which
seems very likely at this point. The Clippers play their
first preseason game at the Dome in October.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
There you go. I don't know why, you know, we
have that stupid ar cake law. Anyway, if you go
to Las Vegas. Not only can you drink twenty four
hours a day, but you can walk from one casino
to another with your drink. You can walk on the
strip with a fully with a full yard of beer.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I never understood that either a full yard. Yeah, the
full yard of beer. If I really.
Speaker 14 (14:41):
Really don't want to stop again, that really tall thin glass.
Speaker 15 (14:46):
You know, there are lots of bars along the strip, right.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Right, guys bringing his own keg with them. Yeah, every
single casino has nine hundred bars.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
You can get a cold one for next and next
to nine.
Speaker 15 (15:00):
Right, because you're not halfway through the thing you've gotten
it's warm like.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
That's right, especially when it's one hundred and forty degrees outside. Yes,
the yard of beer. I never got that. Never understood that.
Hes Nola's it.
Speaker 10 (15:12):
Man.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Maybe I'm not supposed to get it. Who knows. All right,
let's talk about.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Okay, let's talk about the returning in person, the work mandate.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
This is a big deal. We come back. We'll talk
about this.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
But a lot of people are still on this flex
schedule where they work two days or week or three
days a week at home.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
That's changing.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Yeah, I think we're done with the pandemic and we're
all getting back to the workplace at least, I hope.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
So you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Hey, real quick, before we get into this story about
people returning to the workplace, I've seen on Twitter or
X about two or three videos of people celebrating the
the the tornadoes and the Hurricane Helene killing people and
all the people are missing and two or three people.
(16:09):
I think it's just two on Twitter X said, Oh,
they they're conservatives that live in the South.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
They deserve them.
Speaker 10 (16:19):
Man.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
First of all, I don't know who raised you know,
these animals, But if I were the FBI, I'd keep
an eye on those on that crew. Anytimes somebody is
celebrating the death of people because of a storm and
they get enjoyment out of them.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
If the FBI, if you're listening right now, I'd keep
an eye on that crew. Keep an eye on them.
That is eventually going to blow up.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Because they're going to be rejected by society. That woman,
those two women that did that, that are celebrating the
death of people who live in North Carolina, Georgia, South
Carolin line of Florida. They're never going to work anywhere never,
and so they're gonna be broke, and they're gonna be
just as angry or angry or and they're gonna lash out.
(17:10):
So keep an eye on them, keep an eye on
these people are returning to the office. Yep, there's a
mandate out there. A lot of people are returning to work,
whether they like it or not.
Speaker 12 (17:23):
Amazon corporate employees soon going from being in the office
three days a week to five Scando based company, joining
other large companies such as Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Chase, Okay, Goldvin Sacks and Chase. They're gonna come back
whether they like it or not. They're not going to
bitch and complain about it. That people will work in Amazon.
They're going to complain and they're going to Probably a
lot of them are gonna quit because their happiness is
way above their work life, way above, like.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
A billion light years above.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
And they don't have a work ethic, they don't like
to work, they don't understand why they have to work
in life, and they're going to quit in mass Trust me,
Amazon's gonna have a huge problem getting these people back
into the workplace.
Speaker 12 (18:12):
And demanding workers be in the office more.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Yes, they got to get back, and a lot of
them are going to stay out because because they're losers.
Speaker 16 (18:21):
I think some of what you're seeing in Amazon is
in part rooted in senior executives who, let's face it,
in almost any organization live to work, wanting to sort
of determine whether not the rest of their employees are
in it to work.
Speaker 12 (18:34):
Also, Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers. CEO
Andy Jasse, justifying the move, saying in a.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Memo, Okay, listen to this now, remember this paragraph or
this sentence right here.
Speaker 12 (18:45):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Okay, remember that. Remember this.
Speaker 12 (18:49):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Okay, it's going to play a part later on in
the story.
Speaker 12 (18:54):
CEO Andy Jasse justifying the move, saying in a memo,
the advantages of being together in the are significant, and
it's easier for teammates to learn model practice and strengthen
our culture. That's right, but do return to office or
rto mandates deliver on their promises. A recent Gallup poll
found that since twenty twenty, less access to work resources
(19:14):
and feeling less connected to an organization's culture. We're given
as some of the top challenges of hybrid work, but
the poll also found on site employees have lower employee
engagement than remoter hybrid.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Workers who would have guessed Who would have guessed?
Speaker 12 (19:30):
On site employees have lower employee engagement than remoter hybrid workers.
And a study led by a Stanford economist and published
this year found employees who work from home two days
a week are just as productive, likely to get promoted,
and far less prone to quit.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
How about that, maybe it's working who knows?
Speaker 16 (19:48):
The much better answer to all this is stop sweating
how many days a week people are in the office,
start focusing.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
On outcomes as shift.
Speaker 12 (19:55):
Brian Elliott, author and founder of Future Forms.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Can you imagine I mean Krozer and Belly O Angel,
not you steph whos you're too young?
Speaker 3 (20:05):
But can you imagine.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Fifteen years ago your boss saying this to you.
Speaker 16 (20:12):
The much better answer to all this is stop sweating
how many days a week people are in the office.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
You imagine that like literally ten fifteen years ago. You
know you took I don't know thirty days off in
a year, plus your vacation days, and then your boss says,
this to you is.
Speaker 16 (20:32):
Stop sweating how many days a week people are in
the office.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
That sounds like like a martian just said that.
Speaker 16 (20:40):
Stop sweating how many days a week people are in
the office. Start focusing on outcomes.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
A shift.
Speaker 12 (20:45):
Brian Elliott, author and founder of Future Forum, says, take
some initial effort from management, but pays off in the
long run.
Speaker 16 (20:53):
Holding people accountable to results is going to take you
a lot further than does Joe show up at eight
in the morning and leave its seven o'clock at night.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Okay, I want Joe here. Joe's got to be here.
But this is remember this.
Speaker 12 (21:05):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Okay, that is the understatement of the century Amazon, and again,
I'll play one more time.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Listen.
Speaker 12 (21:15):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Some backlash. Seventy three percent of people who work for Amazon.
I'm not talking about delivery guys. I'm not talking about
the guys and gals who work in the in the warehouse.
I'm talking about executives and people work in the main
building in Seattle for Amazon. Seventy three percent of them
are thinking of quitting rather than going back to the workplace.
(21:41):
Seventy three, more than seven out of ten. And this
is how they report.
Speaker 12 (21:48):
That Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Some backlash seventy three percent said they're going to quit,
backlash from work. Seventy three percent said they're going to
quit rather than go back to work at Amazon.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Oh my god, what happened?
Speaker 17 (22:04):
COVID The rush hour backup of cars leaving San Francisco
Tuesday night may have felt a bit different. That's because Tuesday,
October first marked the first day of Salesforce, requiring many
of their workers to come back to the office in
downtown San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
This is a big, huge company in downtown San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Sorry, this is this is the week to come in.
Speaker 17 (22:29):
We spoke with Chelsea Yoshis and Priscilla yet but the
popular eighty three proof cocktail bar downtown. Both work for Salesforce,
and both were back in the office Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I'm excited about it.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
I'm excited to like connect with my coworkers again and be.
Speaker 9 (22:44):
Able to just see the people in the office, and
the in person connection will be really valuable.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
I feel like our teens are super super.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Flexible about man, does that bar sound packed? That's the
bar downtown downstairs that's busy, completely packed.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
The people in the office and the in person connection
will be.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Really valuable if you're like, our teens are super super.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Flexible about how flexible are they? Super super flexible? Yeah,
double soups? Shit us with the double soup.
Speaker 15 (23:13):
And that's a good point about the bar's situation too,
because with people going to work more often, those bars
and restaurants and places around work will get more crowded
as well.

That's Bay Area Council's Jeff Belisario, who's cautiously optimistic, saying
the number of people coming back to downtown SF has
plateaued a bit over the past nine months. Those at parts.
They new ridership records were set on three separate days
in September. Wow, but not due to regular downtown work,
rather special large events like and dream Force.

Wait what team?
Speaker 17 (25:04):
Special large events like A's Games and Dream Force.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
But it's those special events.
Speaker 13 (25:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Well, a bottom line is they're making people go back

people do not like it. Don't like it. But time

Speaker 2 (30:07):
Also, there was a there's a big golfer out of

Speaker 3 (31:14):
But uh, there's no room in the end for Tim Kates.
The sweet's all full.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
But there's no like, you know, whenever the Dodgers play,
it's a big ramp up of like twelve straight hours
from the parking lot.
Speaker 14 (31:23):
Not on the weekend though, oh really, just on the weekday,
ot Friday and seventy be live from the workout at
Dodgers Stadium, So we will be out there.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
Okay, Friday, you're gonna be out there with the petros

Speaker 14 (31:34):
I'll be out there, no nobody else, no other shows. Nope,

seventy five hours a week. Unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
I've never been here where he wasn't here even on weekends,
you know, coming on weekends.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
I forgot something. Guys here, guys working. Unreal, all right,
real live.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
When we come back, Bill Medley with the Righteous Brothers,
they're gonna be on tour. We're gonna tell you where
you get tickets. You gotta go see them. Don't pass
this up. You will always regret it if you don't
go see the last show, the last show of the
Righteous Brothers.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
Gotta go.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
We'll come back and tell you where it is. We're
live on KFI AM six forty Conway Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
Now 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.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Pup Day Yes Wednesday, which is terrific because that means
we're very we're closer to the end of this heat wave,
this horrible heat wave that we're experiencing in the beginning
of October. It's always a spirit killer. We thought we
were gonna have Halloween weather.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
We're not. We're not.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
We're having nineties ninety four ninety five. Hey, the San
Fernando Valley starting Thursday, ninety four, ninety two, ninety three,
ninety four, ninety three, The next five days all in
the nineties.
Speaker 4 (00:42):
Now.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
The one saving grace is that the sun is so
far down from its peak in the summer that we
don't have nine hours of ninety degrees, only like an
hour and a half two hours night does go down
to the mid sixties at night, so it does cool
off at night. The problem in the summer is when
it doesn't cool off at night and it only goes
(01:04):
down to eighty eighty five, and then that morning you
wake up and by the time you get up, you know,
showering off to work, it's already ninety five degrees out.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
That's not happening. That's not happening.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
So as long as we can get through till next Tuesday,
that or Monday, Monday and Tuesday will be the end
of the heat wave. And then listen to this. A
week from Friday in the San Fernando Valley the highest
seventy five degrees, the lowest fifty eight. Fifty eight is
the low in the San Fernando Valley one week from
(01:35):
the day after tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
So we got to get there, got to get there,
all right, Fernando.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Before we get our next story, Fernando Vealezuela pitching a
no hitter and Vince Gully makes the call.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Vinska up.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Fernando Vealezuela started pitching for the Dodgers in nineteen eighty
nineteen eighty, and then they won the World Series in
eighty one, and then they won the World Series in
eighty eight twice in the eighties, great, great, great decade
for the Dodgers. Here it is Fernando Valenzuela. If remember
back then, if you, if you're alive and you do
have a pretty good memory. The Dodgers are playing the Cardinals,
(02:11):
and who was it? Pat Pedro Guerrero was traded to
the Cardinals, and he came up to face Fernando Valezuela
in the ninth inning.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
There was a short chant Paidro paid Row as they
did in Boston in the eighty six World Series, to
try and taunt Strawberry, and now they're doing it to Guerrero,
hoping to distract him, hoping to upset him, hoping perhaps
to make him try too hard. Fernando ready in the
(02:44):
strike two pits is hit back to the box, dribbling.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
The second, Samuel on the bag cross the first double play.
Fernando Valenzuela has pitched a no hitter at ten seventeen
in the evening of June the twenty ninth, nineteen ninety.
If you have a sombrero, throw it to the sky.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Here we go, Fernando Venezuela, and nobody is better than
Vince Scully. Vince Gully just announced what it was and
then he shut up and he let the crowd, the
noise of the crowd, be the star of that of
that segment, and that was great for Nano. Vealezuela stepping
aside for his health. Hopefully we be back next year.
(03:58):
Calling the Dodger game. That's what we need, all right.
Bank of America was hacked. I was a victim of that.
Went in to look at my balance. Zero in my savings,
zero in my checking. Did it bother me?
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Not really?
Speaker 2 (04:11):
My really it This is pretty close to zero to
start with, but you might have more money in your account.
Got to check it out and make sure it's there.
Speaker 7 (04:21):
An outage is affecting thousands of Bank of America customers.
Many are reporting having trouble accessing their bank accounts online.
Some who could access their accounts were startled to see
zero balances. It's not clear how widespread the outage is,
but reports about a problem spiked around nine forty five
this morning on down Detector, which collects data on outages.
(04:42):
Bank of America has not come it and on the problem.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
They haven't, but I have and I was. I'm involved.
I'm involved.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
All right, Let's talk about this pea bandit. This is
Ballyot's favorite story of the day. A pea band it
is on the loose in Pasadena.
Speaker 6 (05:00):
You know, street art has been all the rage in
recent years. Right, Banksy has left this marked on sidewalks
and walls and now Pasadena apparently has struck gold. Apparently
they are flushed with what some but definitely not all,
are calling art.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
The pea Bandit.
Speaker 8 (05:18):
It's a stretch of Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena that really
doesn't stand up, but it certainly puts the pea in Pasadena.
Speaker 9 (05:26):
He's the right word to say, right.
Speaker 8 (05:28):
It is when you're talking about this guy, often referred
to as Pasadena's pea Bandit, responsible for placing bottles of
urine on this specific utility box over the past several years,
and not just one or two of them.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Welcome to Los Angeles. Have you're just getting off the
plane your first visit. This is what we're all about.
It is a nuthouse here in Los Angeles, a complete nuthouse.
Speaker 9 (05:52):
Stackson you know, nine ten eleven bottles.
Speaker 8 (05:56):
Great Ants and his buddy Derek Milton are about two
years into documenting the mysterious bottles, captivated by their placement,
their purpose, their color.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
This guy has got to be in radio somewhere. Bell Yeah,
what station does he work for?
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Do we know?
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Do they?
Speaker 2 (06:13):
They have? They said yet? No, gotta be a radio guy.
There's no way that this guy doesn't work full time
in radio.
Speaker 9 (06:20):
No way all different colors shades of you know, from
like an amber hue to like more of a healthy golden,
lighter yellow, but some are really dark and concerning.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
God, this guy's way too into the color of his urine. Certainly,
Oh my god, this guy, this guy may need a health.
Speaker 8 (06:41):
Check, okay, something the Pea Guy might want to get
checked out. But for Milton and Yansurah, the secrets of
cretor kept trying them in deeper and deeper. Hidden cameras
caught him one night, and that's when they learned he
wasn't just pulling up on the street.
Speaker 9 (06:56):
We saw a mysterious hand reach from over the wall
at you know, two in the morning, coming from the highwayside.
Speaker 8 (07:03):
That's the one thirty four freeway and not much of
a shoulder there. Earlier this year, the city of Pasadena
installed this steel pyramid on top of the utility box,
but it was quickly torn off and the bottles returned.
This second pyramid holding on but barely smashed enough to
still hold a bottle or two. Pea Guy's determination enough
(07:25):
to change how Milton in yen Surah look at him.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Nowh that guy that's his nickname, Pea Guy that's that's
the we have a nickname for the guy Pea.
Speaker 10 (07:34):
Guy's pea, guy Pea guy Pea.
Speaker 8 (07:36):
Guy's determination enough to change how Milton and Yen Surah
look at him.
Speaker 10 (07:41):
Now.
Speaker 9 (07:41):
We think he's an artist because I never really understood
stand art or.
Speaker 10 (07:45):
Really get art.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
I still don't.
Speaker 9 (07:48):
We think he's an artist.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Yeah, I think he's not.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I think he's a guy who is a weird obsession,
not much of an artist.
Speaker 10 (07:57):
We think he's an artist, he's not.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
He's loser.
Speaker 9 (08:01):
And when we couldn't figure out what was going on
and I couldn't get it, that's when we realized maybe.
Speaker 8 (08:06):
It's hard, it's a stretch, but maybe stream of consciousness
art regardless. The two turned to TikTok, posting their investigative
efforts and watching the views top six million.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Wow, man, this guy's on fire.
Speaker 8 (08:20):
The world seemingly joining them, and they're drive to find
the man with the Golden bladder, trying.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
To get it.
Speaker 10 (08:26):
That's good, find the man with the golden bladder.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Man with the golden bladder? Wasn't that it James Bond
moving like the fourth one? The golden bladder?
Speaker 11 (08:35):
Was that?
Speaker 12 (08:36):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (08:36):
Maybe I got it?
Speaker 10 (08:36):
Mixed up Man with the Golden bladder.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Man with the golden bladder? Yes, or was it Barnaby
Jones episode? It was Barnaby Joy Jones indeed, Man with
the golden bladder, Man with the golden bladder, trying to
get into it.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Wonderf he knew.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Golden throat, golden bladder, golden throat, golden throat, golden bladder.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
For trying to get into the TikTok A call of fame,
you'in kind of backfired.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
This guy's good, you'urin, you'urin right.
Speaker 9 (09:08):
Kind of us because now we're the PA guys. It's
not really all it's cracked up to be going everywhere
and see their people honk at you. They say, you're
the PA guys, and it's not really what we wanted
to be.
Speaker 6 (09:21):
Come out to you guys. Not bad, right, at least
you're number one.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
But it's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Bad the stream of consciousness, the Pea guy bad.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
Right, at least you're number one, number one. Two years ago.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
Doing this, the TikTokers say they're all done, they're all
tapped out on this case. Reporting live in Pasady and
the Rob Hayes ABC seven.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I would that's great Rob Hayes, good terrific reporter, and
his assignment today was find out the guys who are looking.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
For the PA guy. The p guys looking for the
PA guy.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
That's right, all right, very good thing dong with them.
We're live on KFI. Don't forget. We have Bill Medley
coming on. The Righteous Brothers are set to appear in
Glendora for their final tour, the Love and Feeling Final Tour,
Farewell Tour, they're calling it, and we'll have more details
at six to five about fifty minutes. So what have
(10:19):
you got to do? Maybe you gotta go, Pete, I
don't know.
Speaker 13 (10:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Forty The Into a Dome, the new basketball arena in Inglewood,
home of your Los Angeles Clippers. Man, they're going to
be serving liquor all night long.
Speaker 11 (10:41):
If it sounds like the owner of the Clippers, Steve Balmer,
has something to do with it, it's because he does.
The billionaire's company Murphy's Bowl sponsored.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
The bill AB thirty two oh.
Speaker 11 (10:52):
Six was introduced by assembly Member Tina mckinner of Inglewood,
and it carves out an exemption from the state's last
Call law allowing alcohol sales to continue from two am
to four am.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Wow, how about that, as.
Speaker 11 (11:06):
Long as the drinking is in a fully enclosed arena
with the seating capacity of at least eighteen thousand seats
and located in the city of Englewood. Now, conveniently, that
description matches only the Dome, which seats eighteen thousand and
will soon serve as the brand new, two billion dollar
home of the Clippers. The Kia Forum, also owned by Balmer,
(11:28):
will not have liquor serve till four am. So that's
sort of a lesson in business. Where you make enough
money and then you grease a politician and they give
you a carve out where you can serve liquor later
and make more money.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
That's how the United States works. If you don't like it,
there are a lot of other countries in this world
you can move to, but that's how we operate in
this country. You work your ass off, you grease the politicians,
and you make more money, and then you greet them again.
You make more money, they help you, you help them.
(12:06):
That's how we operate in this country. I know a
lot of people don't like it, but it's not going
to change, So don't get frustrated and try to change
it and make a big deal out of it and
sue the governor and sue the state of California. Just
sit back and relax. That's how we operate in this country.
Sorry again, if you don't like the system, a lot
(12:26):
of other systems out there. You're free to move around.
Is not the saying of Southwest Airlines. Yeah, Southwest Airlines
freeom move around. You can move to another country. But
that's how we put it together.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
In this country.
Speaker 11 (12:38):
Only seats seventeen thousand, five hundred and while the nearby
Sofi Stadium seats over seventy thousand.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
It's not enclosed, not fully enclosed.
Speaker 11 (12:46):
It's not a fully enclosed arena as required by the
bill right now, that would make me into it dome
literally the only place in the state for legal alcohol
sales after two am, so you can drink till.
Speaker 10 (12:57):
Four am, four in the morning.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
They should get rid of that stupid basketball team and
just to turn it into a big bar. They make
a lot more money if you knew that was the
only bar in California. Eighteen thousand is the capacity for
screw the team dump the team. Yeah, keep the bar. Yeah,
if that's the new rule, that's the biggest bar in
the United States. It's instantly the biggest bar in the
(13:23):
United States. And they have a special carve out where
they can serve liquor until four am. Enough with this,
Put the Clippers back at Staples or whatever it's called.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Didn't do it? What is it? Crypto? Now? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Put it enough with the team. Just a big kick
ass bar the into it.
Speaker 11 (13:41):
Bar supporters describe the bill as a way to stimulate
the local economy by extending alcohol sales during major events,
providing a boost to arena operators, vendors, and surrounding businesses
by Several advocacy groups opposing the bill argue it would
be a precursor to similar bills up and down.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
The state, eventually abolishing the.
Speaker 11 (14:00):
Century long established two am last call statewide.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
The Englewood City Council will have.
Speaker 11 (14:06):
The ultimate authority over whether to approve the exemption, which
seems very likely at this point. The Clippers play their
first preseason game at the Dome in October.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
There you go. I don't know why, you know, we
have that stupid ar cake law. Anyway, if you go
to Las Vegas. Not only can you drink twenty four
hours a day, but you can walk from one casino
to another with your drink. You can walk on the
strip with a fully with a full yard of beer.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
I never understood that either a full yard. Yeah, the
full yard of beer. If I really.
Speaker 14 (14:41):
Really don't want to stop again, that really tall thin glass.
Speaker 15 (14:46):
You know, there are lots of bars along the strip, right.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Right, guys bringing his own keg with them. Yeah, every
single casino has nine hundred bars.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
You can get a cold one for next and next
to nine.
Speaker 15 (15:00):
Right, because you're not halfway through the thing you've gotten
it's warm like.
Speaker 2 (15:04):
That's right, especially when it's one hundred and forty degrees outside. Yes,
the yard of beer. I never got that. Never understood that.
Hes Nola's it.
Speaker 10 (15:12):
Man.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Maybe I'm not supposed to get it. Who knows. All right,
let's talk about.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
Okay, let's talk about the returning in person, the work mandate.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
This is a big deal. We come back. We'll talk
about this.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
But a lot of people are still on this flex
schedule where they work two days or week or three
days a week at home.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
That's changing.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Yeah, I think we're done with the pandemic and we're
all getting back to the workplace at least, I hope.
Speaker 13 (15:40):
So you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Hey, real quick, before we get into this story about
people returning to the workplace, I've seen on Twitter or
X about two or three videos of people celebrating the
the the tornadoes and the Hurricane Helene killing people and
all the people are missing and two or three people.
(16:09):
I think it's just two on Twitter X said, Oh,
they they're conservatives that live in the South.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
They deserve them.
Speaker 10 (16:19):
Man.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
First of all, I don't know who raised you know,
these animals, But if I were the FBI, I'd keep
an eye on those on that crew. Anytimes somebody is
celebrating the death of people because of a storm and
they get enjoyment out of them.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
If the FBI, if you're listening right now, I'd keep
an eye on that crew. Keep an eye on them.
That is eventually going to blow up.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Because they're going to be rejected by society. That woman,
those two women that did that, that are celebrating the
death of people who live in North Carolina, Georgia, South
Carolin line of Florida. They're never going to work anywhere never,
and so they're gonna be broke, and they're gonna be
just as angry or angry or and they're gonna lash out.
(17:10):
So keep an eye on them, keep an eye on
these people are returning to the office. Yep, there's a
mandate out there. A lot of people are returning to work,
whether they like it or not.
Speaker 12 (17:23):
Amazon corporate employees soon going from being in the office
three days a week to five Scando based company, joining
other large companies such as Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Chase, Okay, Goldvin Sacks and Chase. They're gonna come back
whether they like it or not. They're not going to
bitch and complain about it. That people will work in Amazon.
They're going to complain and they're going to Probably a
lot of them are gonna quit because their happiness is
way above their work life, way above, like.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
A billion light years above.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
And they don't have a work ethic, they don't like
to work, they don't understand why they have to work
in life, and they're going to quit in mass Trust me,
Amazon's gonna have a huge problem getting these people back
into the workplace.
Speaker 12 (18:12):
And demanding workers be in the office more.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Yes, they got to get back, and a lot of
them are going to stay out because because they're losers.
Speaker 16 (18:21):
I think some of what you're seeing in Amazon is
in part rooted in senior executives who, let's face it,
in almost any organization live to work, wanting to sort
of determine whether not the rest of their employees are
in it to work.
Speaker 12 (18:34):
Also, Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers. CEO
Andy Jasse, justifying the move, saying in a.
Speaker 2 (18:41):
Memo, Okay, listen to this now, remember this paragraph or
this sentence right here.
Speaker 12 (18:45):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 3 (18:47):
Okay, remember that. Remember this.
Speaker 12 (18:49):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Okay, it's going to play a part later on in
the story.
Speaker 12 (18:54):
CEO Andy Jasse justifying the move, saying in a memo,
the advantages of being together in the are significant, and
it's easier for teammates to learn model practice and strengthen
our culture. That's right, but do return to office or
rto mandates deliver on their promises. A recent Gallup poll
found that since twenty twenty, less access to work resources
(19:14):
and feeling less connected to an organization's culture. We're given
as some of the top challenges of hybrid work, but
the poll also found on site employees have lower employee
engagement than remoter hybrid.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Workers who would have guessed Who would have guessed?
Speaker 12 (19:30):
On site employees have lower employee engagement than remoter hybrid workers.
And a study led by a Stanford economist and published
this year found employees who work from home two days
a week are just as productive, likely to get promoted,
and far less prone to quit.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
How about that, maybe it's working who knows?
Speaker 16 (19:48):
The much better answer to all this is stop sweating
how many days a week people are in the office,
start focusing.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
On outcomes as shift.
Speaker 12 (19:55):
Brian Elliott, author and founder of Future Forms.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Can you imagine I mean Krozer and Belly O Angel,
not you steph whos you're too young?
Speaker 3 (20:05):
But can you imagine.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Fifteen years ago your boss saying this to you.
Speaker 16 (20:12):
The much better answer to all this is stop sweating
how many days a week people are in the office.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
You imagine that like literally ten fifteen years ago. You
know you took I don't know thirty days off in
a year, plus your vacation days, and then your boss says,
this to you is.
Speaker 16 (20:32):
Stop sweating how many days a week people are in
the office.
Speaker 3 (20:37):
That sounds like like a martian just said that.
Speaker 16 (20:40):
Stop sweating how many days a week people are in
the office. Start focusing on outcomes.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
A shift.
Speaker 12 (20:45):
Brian Elliott, author and founder of Future Forum, says, take
some initial effort from management, but pays off in the
long run.
Speaker 16 (20:53):
Holding people accountable to results is going to take you
a lot further than does Joe show up at eight
in the morning and leave its seven o'clock at night.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
Okay, I want Joe here. Joe's got to be here.
But this is remember this.
Speaker 12 (21:05):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 2 (21:08):
Okay, that is the understatement of the century Amazon, and again,
I'll play one more time.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Listen.
Speaker 12 (21:15):
Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Some backlash. Seventy three percent of people who work for Amazon.
I'm not talking about delivery guys. I'm not talking about
the guys and gals who work in the in the warehouse.
I'm talking about executives and people work in the main
building in Seattle for Amazon. Seventy three percent of them
are thinking of quitting rather than going back to the workplace.
(21:41):
Seventy three, more than seven out of ten. And this
is how they report.
Speaker 12 (21:48):
That Amazon's move has faced some backlash from workers.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Some backlash seventy three percent said they're going to quit,
backlash from work. Seventy three percent said they're going to
quit rather than go back to work at Amazon.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
Oh my god, what happened?
Speaker 17 (22:04):
COVID The rush hour backup of cars leaving San Francisco
Tuesday night may have felt a bit different. That's because Tuesday,
October first marked the first day of Salesforce, requiring many
of their workers to come back to the office in
downtown San Francisco.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
This is a big, huge company in downtown San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Sorry, this is this is the week to come in.
Speaker 17 (22:29):
We spoke with Chelsea Yoshis and Priscilla yet but the
popular eighty three proof cocktail bar downtown. Both work for Salesforce,
and both were back in the office Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I'm excited about it.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
I'm excited to like connect with my coworkers again and be.
Speaker 9 (22:44):
Able to just see the people in the office, and
the in person connection will be really valuable.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
I feel like our teens are super super.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Flexible about man, does that bar sound packed? That's the
bar downtown downstairs that's busy, completely packed.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
The people in the office and the in person connection
will be.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Really valuable if you're like, our teens are super super.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Flexible about how flexible are they? Super super flexible? Yeah,
double soups? Shit us with the double soup.
Speaker 15 (23:13):
And that's a good point about the bar's situation too,
because with people going to work more often, those bars
and restaurants and places around work will get more crowded
as well.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Sure, yeah, it's carryover effect, go back to normal. Yeah, yeah,
I'm super super excited about them, super.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Super flexible about you know, they definitely want to.
Speaker 14 (23:33):
See more in person you know, connections, and you can
already see with the downtown they just have a live
it's come even for.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
This week with any you know, how old is this executive?
Speaker 2 (23:42):
She's fifteen where she uses that term and nobody's ever
taught said, Hey, don't double up on the super in
the workplace super super super super it's you know, if
Bellio said that, I would think that Bellio is making
fun of somebody around here for saying that. Like here,
we're going on remote Oh it's gonna be super super exciting. Yeah,
(24:03):
super super. Oh it's gonna be great.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, I just can't wait to get out there. Oh,
it's to be back in the workplace. Super Super Super.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
They're a part of you that likes her enthusiasm.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Yeah, I like the enthusiasm. I will give her that.
I think I'm in moody I one hundred percent. I'll
give her that. That's a one hundred percent right, But
doubling up on supers in your forties, super super super
super forty, I think she's in her late twenties, is
she really?
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:32):
I will give her a little bit of break here,
So good for her. All right, she's got twelve years
to clear this up, clean it up.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Twelve years.
Speaker 17 (24:39):
That's Bay Area Council's Jeff Belisario, who's cautiously optimistic, saying
the number of people coming back to downtown SF has
plateaued a bit over the past nine months. Those at parts.
They new ridership records were set on three separate days
in September. Wow, but not due to regular downtown work,
rather special large events like and dream Force.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Wait what team?
Speaker 17 (25:04):
Special large events like A's Games and Dream Force.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Generally speaking, our ridership has been very consistent without large events.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
But it's those special events.
Speaker 13 (25:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Well, a bottom line is they're making people go back
to the workplace in San Francisco, and a lot of
people do not like it. Don't like it. But time
to go back, Time to go back. The party's over,
The COVID party is over.
