I live near the ocean, I live, you know, basically,
Glad's right.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
But you always talk about how crappy your house is.
Amongst these big mals, it was you and I listened
all the time.
Speaker 6 (01:53):
So yeah, we bought a house that was a teardown,
and the neighbors like they came out when we closed
because they were waiting for the crane and the demolition.
Thirty two years later, he still hasn't had a garage
that people would actually realtors would shield people's eyes.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Oh yeah, this is this house.
Speaker 6 (02:11):
You know when they say by the cheapest house in
a nice neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Oh, that's a US.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
And you're still in the same house house And how
many years?
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Wow, that's wild, Oh my god, thirty one.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Now, when I was I was a big fan of
I mean, you were number one in afternoon Drive.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Over there KBC for a long time and kick an ass.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
And I learned a lot from you, not only how
to like interview people and and uh and always I
remember listening to you. I always say, you know, Peter
Tilden always remembers to say the person's name over and
over because it's not TV, and you got to keep
identifying who it is, who it is. And when I
listen to radio now and somebody doesn't say who that is,
and they go off there go, oh, thanks for coming,
and they don't tell me who that was.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I drive. It drives me crazy, crazy because you're waiting
to let me.
Speaker 6 (02:54):
I want to know who it is. If we're throwing compliments.
I listened to you all the time. You no, no,
I'll tell you why, because in this world it's so diffault.
People said he missed radio, and I go, not really,
because it got to the point where you just come
in and bitch and get a paycheck. Wow, the mayor
is this and I was. I like solution based and
like conversation, and it's very hard to do that. You
(03:15):
no matter what comes a you're not that political. B
I never know what you're gonna say or where you're
gonna go, even early market day. Well, but you know what,
somebody in broadcasting said something really smart to me a
long time ago. If you know somebody's opinion about stuff,
you don't have to tune in every day.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
That's great.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
And you know, well, it was going to say the
same thing Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday and Monday. I
really don't have to be that engaged. But if you're
telling me stuff about it and you always you always
say something that makes me if you did something today
about you were playing the thing about the Trump golf
club thing or whatever.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
But you always go, well, that's very complimentary.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
Joy is good?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Is possible?
Speaker 1 (03:58):
I one of the stories that I've told a million
people that you told me because you used to come
when we were on kalos X. Used to come on
with us then, and you know you're the number one
guy and you're like, oh, come on these idiots at night.
But the story, and I think it was in San
Diego or in Orange County when you were on a
on a group of motorcycles. There was going to be
a big motorcycle drive and you were going to lead
(04:19):
the pack.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Do you remember the story?
Speaker 6 (04:21):
I remember it was one of the So I'm going
through a divorce, my first marriage. I'm out here and
I'm on kalis X before Howard Stern right. This was
before Howard Right. It lasted a year and the program
director hated me because corporate hired me.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
So you will love this.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
So I land was that Jay Clark, No, no, no,
his name was Tom. I can't even says it's like,
I know you of Baltimore. You can't the name, which
you cannot say. So I land in the first meeting
I have with my new program, directory is I can
fire you, you can't fire me? And I go, this
is going to go really well. So they had a
motorcycle ride. It was when they did the Love ride.
(04:56):
This wasn't just a motorcycle ride. This was thirty five
thousand motorcycle.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (05:01):
It's carried nationally and it starts at six in the morning.
So they send me. They say, you're one of the
lead riders. I said, I haven't ridden a motorcycle.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Where does this start?
Speaker 7 (05:10):
Where?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
It's fifteen years at Oliver whatever, Glendale, Harley, Okay, and
then it goes to I guess at that time like
a stay. It's a short ride, but they make it
one hundred mile ride.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Right, this is important.
Speaker 6 (05:22):
So they give me a bike and I'm sitting there
now and I just got in LA and I'm you
know what, I bought these expensive glasses that I would
never buy in Philly because I'm cheap and didn't have money.
I buy, like Oliver people, three hundred dollars clip on.
And I didn't realize Also when the bike starts at
seven in the morning, it's thirty degrees. So I'm now
(05:44):
they're in a shirt with these glasses. Now this is
before helmets. It's twenty minutes to the ride starts. There's helicopters,
there's state troopers. And I said to my boss Tom,
no highway right. He said, no highway. So I start
my bike just to make sure it's going to start,
and four thousand people start their bike behind me, and
the state trooper looks at me and goes, you, schmart,
what did you just do? I go, I just I've
(06:05):
never been on this bike before.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
He said, let's go, because when the when they lead
bike starts, that's the signal for everybody else's shod.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
I got a guy with a helmet, a bone in
his nose, I got helds. I got everybody behind him,
thirty four thousands. So we start and I yelled to
the state trooper, but no highways right, and he starts laughing.
We're on the highway one on one ramp. Within three seconds,
we're going one hundred miles an hour because those motorcycle
cops that's what they cruise at. And I'm now going
I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. It's freezing and I'm
(06:32):
holding onto the hand of Bar's gonna please your goud
just let me die. And there are celebrities around me.
They all peeled off because they go to short route
and they sit there. It's like eight minutes away. We
go for four hour ride and a van pulls up
next to me about eight minutes into the ride, and
these people yell out from the side, we love you.
And I turned my head an eighth of an inch
and my three minute dog glasses are run over by
(06:54):
thirty four thousand people and I now can't see, so
I'm squinting for the remainder ride and the park don't
know is I pulled. I was so pissed off, and
I have a beautiful bike that Oliver from Glendale gave me.
But we pull into the place I drop. I'm so
pissed I drop it. I just went off it and
I drop it, and I made Bob Moore, a general manager,
take me to Gladstones, and we ordered a giant bowl
(07:15):
soup so I could put my hands in.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
It because I was frozen. So that's the ride, that's your's, okay.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And then for the rest of the ride, you had
no glasses.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
I'm squinting, I can't see it. I'm going one hundred
with thirty four thousand people behind them.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
That's real. That's that's a great story. You know, when
you think you're the s in this town, you're always not.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
There's some picture of Bob Moore Billie and I'm lying
on the ground.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
I'm actually collapse.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Yeah, all right, So you were at KBC for a
million years and and you and and I learned something
about you when I was listening to you as well,
that nobody treated the advertisers like you did. Like I
heard rumors that they were going to fire you, and
then I also heard that four or five hoursizers said
if they fire Peter Tilden, they're going to fire us too,
because we're sticking with Peter.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Is that true?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
And one of them was you know, I'm not going
to say who they were, but there's some that are
very well known.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
You treated them very well.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Well.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
You know what I used to do. I used to
because I came from advertising at an ad agency in Philly,
So I used to say to the advertis I'd meet
with the advertiser and I'd say, I'm going to learn
if we fail you're gonna here's what's gonna happen. You're
gonna come on with me and it's not going to
work after three weeks, and you're gonna blame me.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Right.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Then you're going to go to KFI and you're gonna
go everywhere else and it's going to fail there too.
So here's what we need to do. If you're for real,
we need to sit and invest because you need to
teach me everything about your product because I can't sell
it without knowing what I'm selling. So if it fails,
you're half responsible. So here's what you got to do.
In three weeks when it's not working. You've got to
call me instead of calling GM and threatening leave, and
we got to sit down and adjust it right and
(08:50):
fix it until it works, until it works. And that's
what I did with lots of advocates. You spent the time,
the energy and made them. How do you go on
with somebody if you don't know what to product?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Can you do a great? You always do a great?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Thank I appreciate it, all right. So you're also doing
a podcast that's been on for quite some time.

many years. Jason Alexander from the Seinfeld Show and hello,

Speaker 6 (09:16):

second year of Seinfeld. He came on the show in
the morning. I finished the show with him and I said,
you want to get something neat and we walked out
to his car and that was We've traveled together, We've
done everything together, and he's an amazing, amazing friend.

Speaker 3 (09:53):

Speaker 7 (09:53):
Okay, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
kf I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Peter Tilden's with us.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
He does a podcast called Really No Really with Jason Alexander.
And you do one of these, you do an hour
a week.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
An hour week, we do an hour week, we drop
an hour week. I'm just texting Jason.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
So that's right, honestly, God brother, you know, just talk
to you. Yeah, but he's not an insult too much.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I had to give him the cue. Yes, it's a distract, buddy.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
But you do this podcast at Howie Mendel's plays.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
Howi Mendel has a huge studio that he uses for
podcasting and people rent it and stuff, and it's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
And he has his own podcast, is his own podcast,
and he does with his daughter.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Yes, and she's great too. They're wondering, I know, the
whole family. They're wonderful. Oh yeah, it's all crazy.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
Well, you know what, I've known how he so again
thirty plus years because we used to do Bobby's World together,
So I know, I don't even think about the OCD
with how he how he is.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I heard that Howie Mendel because I talked about this joke.
I tell this Howie Mendel joke on the air all
the time. And when I was younger and he was
doing more stand up before he got into you know,
game shows and announcing all that stuff. He used to
come out on stage and he used to have a
like a purse but a bag, and he was in
the shape of a hand and that he would call
it his handbag, and for some reason I thought that
(11:19):
was funny, and it's like really funny.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
It is funny. It's so what I mentioned on the air.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I heard that somebody said that Howie Mandel Herbie say
it one day and he got pissed and he thought
I was making fun of him, but I'm not. I
thought that was a great gig, that he's got a handbag.
It's in the shape of a hand but it's a bag.
Speaker 6 (11:36):
Can I tell you something? So we did an episode
with Howie really no really, And the thing about the
show is it's got to be stuff and Jason should
be calling on the hotline whatever just yeah, but we
do stuff that makes us go really no, really Okay.
We don't want to be divisive, we don't want to
be political, but if it makes you really no, really,
so how is there? And I thought, you know what,
this guy has to judge and critique people every week.
(11:57):
Think about that, a you got to come up with
new stuff to say. But also you got kids on
that stage you never think about when you've just passed
and said see you later.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
What's the devastation a lot?
Speaker 6 (12:07):
Yeah, Well I found out so we had how we
had how We on an episode about critiquing, and it
got to your point, So talked about that they have
a psychologist backstage who deals with that stuff because they
won't give that.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
People are that sensitive.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
If you've practiced eaten fire while you're bending over background.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Some thing is the aristocrat. But I shouldn't go there.
But if you're thinking, I'm segueing into that.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
But if you're you've practiced stuff for seventeen years, you
get on that stage and it's done, you may be
really devastated, Okay, in front of all of America.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
So isn't you be more embarrassed talking to psychiatrists backstage?
Speaker 6 (12:38):
I don't think so. I think we're in them when
you're in the midst of it. Maybe, yeah, how do
you open up backstay feel comfortable. There's a juggler behind you,
But tell me what's buying.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
But hurry, I'm I got to get to the fire breather.
Speaker 6 (12:48):
To your point though, and we've had Carra toop on too,
how you're very particular here you are, you're making money,
you're big, you're well known, but you're pop comic and
there's some kind of diminished to that so if that's
true that Howie I so defense it's it's a caractop,
I said, grow up, man, Yeah you've got making fifteen
(13:08):
million dollars a year, you got a thirty year contract.
People love you. You just told me George carn like she sad.
What more acclaim do you want? But prop comics are
always looked down, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Jason Alexander's with us from really no really, Jason, how.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
You bubm this? Listening to Peter talk about Howie Mendel.
This is the highlight my day.
Speaker 6 (13:29):
So now you know our relationship already.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Howie Mandel come on like a Gin and Tonic right there.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
You couldn't imagine calling up and go, waitmen, it's gonna
be Howie Mandela talking about prop.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Dude, you want to get.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
In during the exciting motorcycle story that was, you know, fix.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Nate on the amens Kate e a int ard it
up A.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
That is great. This the podcast you guys do is great.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I listened to it as often as I can, and
it's just it's like sitting around Arts Deli listening to
two guys in a booth just uh, you know, b
as for an hour.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
It really is great. I enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Yeah, it's the third guy at arts Belly actually knew
something would correct points and somebody who knows what they're
talking about.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
But that's a great story how you guys became friends
that you went on, you know, Peter Tilden's show, and
then Peter Tilden glombed onto you and you can't get
rid of him.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Yeah, that is That is the best description of our
relationship that I've heard. Yeah, no, it was really you know,
I heard Peter tell it. It is exactly that we
had such a good time on the air. We get
off the air and he goes, you want to go
to breakfast? I go, I kind of do wow, you know.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
And by the way, we.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Never think it's such an abstract way to meet somebody,
because it's it's performative, you know what you're trying to
But we just kind of clicked in that ten minutes
we had on the air, and then the he's the
brother I didn't have.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
And by the way, and we haven't stopped eating since then.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
As my girlish Sigar will definitely point to.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Yeah, now are you I didn't see it the Emmys
last night? Are you a big fan? Will you watch
the Emmys even if you're not up or anything.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I didn't see you that you didn't see me at
the Emmys? Wait, was I nominated? I visited? You know?
People are you're going to the Emmys? I go, am
I up for anything? I have watched about we tape it,
you know, so I've watched about half of it. Uh,
and it's you know, it's fun. It's fun to see
uh friends, colleagues, and I'm not I've become less of
(15:42):
a television watcher, so I I'm a little in the dark.
Sometimes somebody will went and I go, I don't know
what they're doing. It's fun. I I I was kind
of over Award shows even when I was part of them.
They aren't, for you the biggest thrill for me in
the world, because I find for the most part, this
notion of some sort of comparative competitive element between anybody
(16:08):
on that show. And I mean, I know it's all
the same business and it's a similar product, but it
couldn't be more different. And so to create oh you're
better than this or you're you know, it just seems
very strange and arbitrary to me. I wish they were
all just here are the people we really admired their
work this year. Here's a whole bunch of the back.
Speaker 6 (16:26):
Didn't give them pie, give them cake, give them food,
they trophy.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Right.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
But but you know, when I don't know how old
you are, we're probably similar in age. But when we
were growing up, you know, we all watched the same thing.
We all watched Happy Days on Tuesdays, Lavernon Shirley, six
Million Dollar Man, the Brady Bunge, you know, Partridge Family.
And now I watched it last night. I haven't seen
any of these shows that are on none of them.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Yeah, and you know I'm listening. I'm talking politics now,
a television politics. The world changed for me when the
Emmy Awards started to include shows from cable because they
don't play by the same rule. So you so, now
you have cable streaming, you know it's to be to
be up for a comedy and.
Speaker 6 (17:12):
You're on ABC or by the way, Jason and I
had the ABC experience.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
We have the ABC experience.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
It's eighty two commercials, right, and you got seven minutes
a show on cable. He's got thirty eight minutes.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Say any word with a K in it.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
And there are you're competing.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
It's a show.
Speaker 6 (17:27):
They can say whatever they want, and the thirty eight
minutes eight times your length.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Well, it's almost like taking a high school football team
and comparing them to the NFL.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
I mean, it's a very different animal.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
So you know, it's and you know, listen, I love
the Bear. I I am way into The Bear, and
I don't I didn't see the whole Emmy, so don't
tell me who won or less. But you know, as
a staunch fan of The Bear, I've left three times.
I don't take it as a comedy, you know. I
know it's a half hour generally, but it doesn't strike
I've got to tell you something.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
The Bear is closer to a cooking show than this.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Okay, but but but doesn't Hollywood, don't the other actors
and actresses, writers and producers get pissed because they have to,
you know, they have to consciously submit in the in
the comedy category. And they did that because they knew
they probably couldn't win over you know, some of the
other shows.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
You know, I have no idea. Honestly, I really have
no idea.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
Jason, Jason, we should have submitted all the shows as dramas.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
That's right now you're now you're saying something, Peter, I know,
damn it. And you know what, I'd like to believe
it's not too late. What was the last TV show
in nineteen ninety seven? Let's go back.
Speaker 6 (18:36):
Don't throw cold water on every eye.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
That statue the limitations on our product.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I don't think that's great.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Jason.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I really appreciate you calling a huge, huge fan forever
and and and that that show. I hate to say it.
It sucks without you.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Oh you're very sweet, Thank you. I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
My mom and dad took me to that movie when
I was very young, and uh, and my dad pointed out,
it's about how family means everything.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yeah, that's exactly right, and we could.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Use a little more of that nowadays.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
You bet you.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
But I really appreciate coming on my pleasure. Thank you,
Jason Alexander, look at that. We'll talk to you.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
Very good friend of Peter Tilden's all right, can you
stay with this? I can stay based on his ride,
I'm here till nine. Okay, I'm not getting the car
I'm missing. I'm gonna tell that joke that got you fired.
I'll tell they go. You gotta tell the joke that
you got you fired.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Peter Tilden is with us. We were just talking to
his partner, Jason Alexander. Huge podcast. There's a lot of
people in this building listen to that podcast that really
no real ladder.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Yeah, I'd come up with the title really no really,
So I.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
Didn't want to do a podcast. I'd give Left Radio
with a pretty big audience, and I felt like, if
I say to people I'm doing a podcast, the next
thing I hear is my grandson does a podcast, right,
And I didn't want to do that. So I wanted
to come up with a brand. If I'm going to
do it, to come up with the brand. So I
started thinking about really because Jason, when everyone in the
car always makes me laugh as a guy cuts them
off and he goes really, so that always made me
(20:42):
laugh because really so expressive, right, But yeah, I couldn't
get really dot com. I looked it up. I went
for it, and they wanted like half a million dollars
and I went really, no, really, and I went really no,
really implies. The first answer was BS, tim are you happy? Yeah?
No really really really no? Really so really no really
Jason loved it. To tell your company, iHeart they understood.
The first premise was that I sold it with was
(21:05):
why do they refuse to make the bathroom it's a signer?
Why do they refuse to make the bathroom door go
to the floor? Really they can't do that. I mean
if you can see out, they can see it. Really no, really,
so we got the definitive answer for why they didn't
make the door.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
To why because of the mopping?
Speaker 6 (21:20):
Look at you? Can I sell you something I was
going to do the I can't say them the blank
call answer, which is you got to listen to the podcast.
But since you were the first, what it is is
everybody has an answer. First of all, it's cheaper material wise. Oh,
I say, okay, right, But the janitor doesn't have to
open the doors. He can under all of them. Oh
I get okay, all right, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
But you ever do this where you're in the bathroom
and you're looking in the mirror and you accidentally get
eye contact with the guys sitting on the toilet, you know,
through the.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
Little you can see right in there.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Yeah, it's horrible, and you have eye contact.
Speaker 6 (21:54):
You don't want see it. He didn't want to see it. No, man,
they really can't line that up. Do you have bathroom shoes?
Excuse me?
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Because people can tell who's in there by the by
what shoes the bathroom? But you have shoes in your
locker you put them on to go to the bathroom,
Someone can tell who it is.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
I don't need bathroom shoes because I do what you do,
Tim go home. No, you either hold it till you
go home.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Poor.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
You have a bathroom somewhere in the building.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
You travel to because at the real estate you use
this well real estate agency, it quits at five, and
you know what five for you got a half an
hour free time before they clean.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Everybody has their bathroom.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
It's rude to use this bathroom for number two, the one.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
You don't want to hear. You know what, people knowing
what you're doing exactly, that's exactly what sounds I mean.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
I'm gonna tell you I worked at KBC when you
were still there, and I got fired over there in
a minute for telling this joke. Bob Moore hired b
and when when kalas X blew up and went to
music and I was over KVC. I was a kalas
X for twelve hours, I mean twelve years and then
KVC for twelve hours. I remember this, and then I
(22:56):
got fired. Yes, but because Bob called me and he goes, hey,
you guys have that joke you told the air that's
not what we do here at KABC.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Pretty good in person, thank you very much. So here's
the joke.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
And it was, by the way, am I gonna want
to get fired for a second time, because.
Speaker 2 (23:11):

I said, no one's calling. Let me just tell you
(23:33):
the five best jokes I got. And he goes okay,
And that was the first joke I told, and Less said, uh,
I got a call from management. We're not supposed to
do any more of these. Here's the joke I toldly
got me fired. Door to door salesman walked around neighborhood,
knocks on a door. Kid opens and he's wearing his

And I said right.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
So I went and he goes, this relea isn't for you,
is it? You don't I said, oh, Bobby was just
one joke. He said, that's what we do over here.
Speaker 2 (24:35):

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Those jokes over here. There were a couple more jokes,
and he said, I don't think this is for you.
Speaker 3 (24:40):

It's more new Kirk.
Speaker 7 (27:47):
You're listening to Tim Conway, jun you're on demand from
k f I A M six forty.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
I was called out Peter Tilden in here. I used
to listen to him all the time. He's one of
my favorites.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
You know, I was younger before I got into radio.
I'd listened to him and he was always like the
coolest guy on radio. And I love having that guy in.
That guy's great. Peter Tilden and a real radio guy
brings his own headphones. Just the mic knows what, you know,
how you don't have to say, you know, talk to
talk to the mic. That's a real radio professional, real
radio guy. Don't see that much these days, but he
(28:24):
was huge, his number one in Los Angeles for many,
many years. Yeah, you know, I mean when you know
the Dodgers were over there, and and you know you
had Ken and Bob and David viscatt Ireistelle and that was.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
A big station, and I don't know what happened over there.
We beat their ass. Yeah, I guess, I guess we
got our we got our strength to battles. And said,
that's right, that's right, that's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
All right.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
There's another earthquake this morning, right out in Malibu, where
they seem to happen a lot, and the people out
there have a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Don't like it. They don't like it at all.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
But I shut off my earthquake alerts. I don't get
the alerts anymore because that panicked me more than the earthquake.
So I shut him down and I erased them from
my phone. I got rid of all the apps, all
the earthquake apps.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
At four this.
Speaker 9 (29:17):
Morning three point six magnitude earthquake, centered three miles north
of Malibu, sort of possibly an after shock of the
quake that we had several days ago. The depth was
seven miles Again, we're going to get basically.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
With the reaction to it. Sounds like she was just
waking up, who cares.
Speaker 9 (29:46):
Sort of possibly an after shock of the quake that
we had several days ago. The depth was seven miles. Again,
We're going to get a lot of aftershocks from that.
I think it was what was like a four point
seven or four point six quaker.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yeah, because initially it was five point one. Downgraded to
that range. There's already been at least one.
Speaker 9 (30:08):
Three point six, and here's today another three point six magnitude.
We're gonna assume it was an aftershock.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
He's in to screw it, all right. This is something
I can't get over. I've tried.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
I've been a huge fan my whole life of Forehead Meets,
and since the listeria, I can't go back. And I hope,
I hope to go back one day. I can't do it. Though,
I can't do it. I look, I go into a
store and I see boys, and I'm like I don't know.
Speaker 8 (30:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
I hope it's great, but yeah, really no, really, I think.
Speaker 8 (30:45):
I just maybe I'm just too trusting. But I always think, oh, yeah,
they got it under control. Once it hits the news man,
Yeah they're gonna pull everything. We're not gonna find anything back.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Have at it only I no, no, I've seen stories
like this where you know, kids are eyeing from you know,
a food place, and then they think they have it,
and another kid dies, and then they say they got
it and another kid dies. I'm like, I'm gonna, I'm
gonna sit on the bench for a little while here.
I love Bor's Head. It's always a top quality, great meat.
(31:14):
I've I've been I've been getting it at Pavilions for
probably I don't know, fifteen years, and before that at
you know, Vaughn's or Gelson's. I love barheads meet Bor's
Head meat. But ever since the the you know, the
lasteria outbreak, I just can't come back.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
I don't know.
Speaker 10 (31:30):
There is an update this morning from the popular deli
brand Bor's Head after a deadly listeria outbreak. The company
now says it's closing the Virginia plant tied.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
To that outbreak. Oh no, they're closing it for good.
But you know that's got it.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
That's got to be you know, uh off putting. You know,
if if you're you know, if everything is cool, then
why are you closing the plant? You know, I don't
understand it. I mean, if if you've got everything going again,
then I don't understand the plant closing down.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
All right, let's hear some more break.
Speaker 10 (32:02):
The company now says it's closing the Virginia plant tied
to that outbreak. The company says this shutdown is indefinite.
In a statement, Friday, bars had called the outbreak a
dark moment in its history.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
I think that's a woman who's had listeria.
Speaker 10 (32:18):
Apologizing for the contamination of its liverwurst product. The deli
meat is linked to the deaths of nine.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
People in July.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Oh my god, nine people died. Nine people died, and
I just can't go back. Have you been able to
go back?
Speaker 2 (32:32):
CROs the bors?
Speaker 3 (32:35):
No?
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Yeah, is that wild?
Speaker 6 (32:36):
I'm with you.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I need a little bit more time. What about Angel
You're back? No, not back yet. Were you a big
fan before though? I loved it? Yeah? Me too, me too.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
You know, I like I like the crack pepper turkey
and the the oven the natural oven baked turkey.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Those are my two go tos, and the ham. The
ham was great too. The turkeys are my favorite also,
and I can't go back.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
And also maybe maybe one of the reasons I can't
go back is the market that I go to. They
slice it up and they put it in a package.
You know, they slice the board, his head up, then
they put it in a in a refrigerator and you
can combine and pick it up without happening, you know,
because because nobody wants to cut meat for you nowadays.
You know, if you ask, hey, can I get half
pound of that, he wants to jump over the counter
(33:21):
and strangle you. You know, even though that's his job.
People don't like cutting meat for other people. They feel
like that's they're above that, and they're not, but they
feel like they are. And so whenever you go to
have a guy cut meat, you always have to be
super nice to I'm like, oh man, I love that watch,
oh man, that that shirt that's baccag I love that shirt.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Guys, it's on this turkey sliced.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
And then and then you want to tell him how
you like it sliced, but he already wants to kill
you anyway, Like, hey, can I get that really thin?
Speaker 2 (33:50):
It's like, oh, how thin do you want it?
Speaker 8 (33:54):
That you never I never get an issue. It's like,
if you want it, slice a little thicker.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
But when it's thinner, they because the guy's got to
move his arm twenty times more.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
My deli is awesome. And they slice it thin.
Speaker 9 (34:07):
And after the first few slices they get a little
one of those little paper like parchment papers.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Yea, and they slice it off.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
And they go, here you go, you want to slice?
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Yes, yes, that's the best, man, And especially the paper
between slices. You have put eight slices down, then in
parchment paper, then eight more slices than another piece of paper.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
But I can't go back yet. I don't know what
it is.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
And it's always been my favorite, always been my go
to meat. And I can't go back, man, I don't know. Hopeful,
hopefully one day, one day. I'm live on KFI AM

It took you. How long did you get here? Two
hours and ten minutes?
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Two hours and ten minutes Rember Where you live should
have been No, should have been about forty one minutes.
I live near the ocean, I live, you know, basically,
Glad's right.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
But you always talk about how crappy your house is.
Amongst these big mals, it was you and I listened
all the time.
Speaker 6 (01:53):
So yeah, we bought a house that was a teardown,
and the neighbors like they came out when we closed
because they were waiting for the crane and the demolition.
Thirty two years later, he still hasn't had a garage
that people would actually realtors would shield people's eyes.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
Oh yeah, this is this house.
Speaker 6 (02:11):
You know when they say by the cheapest house in
a nice neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Oh, that's a US.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
And you're still in the same house house And how
many years?
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Wow, that's wild, Oh my god, thirty one.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Now, when I was I was a big fan of
I mean, you were number one in afternoon Drive.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Over there KBC for a long time and kick an ass.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
And I learned a lot from you, not only how
to like interview people and and uh and always I
remember listening to you. I always say, you know, Peter
Tilden always remembers to say the person's name over and
over because it's not TV, and you got to keep
identifying who it is, who it is. And when I
listen to radio now and somebody doesn't say who that is,
and they go off there go, oh, thanks for coming,
and they don't tell me who that was.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
I drive. It drives me crazy, crazy because you're waiting
to let me.
Speaker 6 (02:54):
I want to know who it is. If we're throwing compliments.
I listened to you all the time. You no, no,
I'll tell you why, because in this world it's so diffault.
People said he missed radio, and I go, not really,
because it got to the point where you just come
in and bitch and get a paycheck. Wow, the mayor
is this and I was. I like solution based and
like conversation, and it's very hard to do that. You
(03:15):
no matter what comes a you're not that political. B
I never know what you're gonna say or where you're
gonna go, even early market day. Well, but you know what,
somebody in broadcasting said something really smart to me a
long time ago. If you know somebody's opinion about stuff,
you don't have to tune in every day.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
That's great.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
And you know, well, it was going to say the
same thing Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday and Monday. I
really don't have to be that engaged. But if you're
telling me stuff about it and you always you always
say something that makes me if you did something today
about you were playing the thing about the Trump golf
club thing or whatever.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
But you always go, well, that's very complimentary.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
Joy is good?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Is possible?
Speaker 1 (03:58):
I one of the stories that I've told a million
people that you told me because you used to come
when we were on kalos X. Used to come on
with us then, and you know you're the number one
guy and you're like, oh, come on these idiots at night.
But the story, and I think it was in San
Diego or in Orange County when you were on a
on a group of motorcycles. There was going to be
a big motorcycle drive and you were going to lead
(04:19):
the pack.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Do you remember the story?
Speaker 6 (04:21):
I remember it was one of the So I'm going
through a divorce, my first marriage. I'm out here and
I'm on kalis X before Howard Stern right. This was
before Howard Right. It lasted a year and the program
director hated me because corporate hired me.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
So you will love this.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
So I land was that Jay Clark, No, no, no,
his name was Tom. I can't even says it's like,
I know you of Baltimore. You can't the name, which
you cannot say. So I land in the first meeting
I have with my new program, directory is I can
fire you, you can't fire me? And I go, this
is going to go really well. So they had a
motorcycle ride. It was when they did the Love ride.
(04:56):
This wasn't just a motorcycle ride. This was thirty five
thousand motorcycle.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (05:01):
It's carried nationally and it starts at six in the morning.
So they send me. They say, you're one of the
lead riders. I said, I haven't ridden a motorcycle.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Where does this start?
Speaker 7 (05:10):
Where?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
It's fifteen years at Oliver whatever, Glendale, Harley, Okay, and
then it goes to I guess at that time like
a stay. It's a short ride, but they make it
one hundred mile ride.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Right, this is important.
Speaker 6 (05:22):
So they give me a bike and I'm sitting there
now and I just got in LA and I'm you
know what, I bought these expensive glasses that I would
never buy in Philly because I'm cheap and didn't have money.
I buy, like Oliver people, three hundred dollars clip on.
And I didn't realize Also when the bike starts at
seven in the morning, it's thirty degrees. So I'm now
(05:44):
they're in a shirt with these glasses. Now this is
before helmets. It's twenty minutes to the ride starts. There's helicopters,
there's state troopers. And I said to my boss Tom,
no highway right. He said, no highway. So I start
my bike just to make sure it's going to start,
and four thousand people start their bike behind me, and
the state trooper looks at me and goes, you, schmart,
what did you just do? I go, I just I've
(06:05):
never been on this bike before.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
He said, let's go, because when the when they lead
bike starts, that's the signal for everybody else's shod.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
I got a guy with a helmet, a bone in
his nose, I got helds. I got everybody behind him,
thirty four thousands. So we start and I yelled to
the state trooper, but no highways right, and he starts laughing.
We're on the highway one on one ramp. Within three seconds,
we're going one hundred miles an hour because those motorcycle
cops that's what they cruise at. And I'm now going
I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. It's freezing and I'm
(06:32):
holding onto the hand of Bar's gonna please your goud
just let me die. And there are celebrities around me.
They all peeled off because they go to short route
and they sit there. It's like eight minutes away. We
go for four hour ride and a van pulls up
next to me about eight minutes into the ride, and
these people yell out from the side, we love you.
And I turned my head an eighth of an inch
and my three minute dog glasses are run over by
(06:54):
thirty four thousand people and I now can't see, so
I'm squinting for the remainder ride and the park don't
know is I pulled. I was so pissed off, and
I have a beautiful bike that Oliver from Glendale gave me.
But we pull into the place I drop. I'm so
pissed I drop it. I just went off it and
I drop it, and I made Bob Moore, a general manager,
take me to Gladstones, and we ordered a giant bowl
(07:15):
soup so I could put my hands in.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
It because I was frozen. So that's the ride, that's your's, okay.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And then for the rest of the ride, you had
no glasses.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
I'm squinting, I can't see it. I'm going one hundred
with thirty four thousand people behind them.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
That's real. That's that's a great story. You know, when
you think you're the s in this town, you're always not.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
There's some picture of Bob Moore Billie and I'm lying
on the ground.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
I'm actually collapse.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Yeah, all right, So you were at KBC for a
million years and and you and and I learned something
about you when I was listening to you as well,
that nobody treated the advertisers like you did. Like I
heard rumors that they were going to fire you, and
then I also heard that four or five hoursizers said
if they fire Peter Tilden, they're going to fire us too,
because we're sticking with Peter.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Is that true?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
And one of them was you know, I'm not going
to say who they were, but there's some that are
very well known.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
You treated them very well.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Well.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
You know what I used to do. I used to
because I came from advertising at an ad agency in Philly,
So I used to say to the advertis I'd meet
with the advertiser and I'd say, I'm going to learn
if we fail you're gonna here's what's gonna happen. You're
gonna come on with me and it's not going to
work after three weeks, and you're gonna blame me.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Right.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Then you're going to go to KFI and you're gonna
go everywhere else and it's going to fail there too.
So here's what we need to do. If you're for real,
we need to sit and invest because you need to
teach me everything about your product because I can't sell
it without knowing what I'm selling. So if it fails,
you're half responsible. So here's what you got to do.
In three weeks when it's not working. You've got to
call me instead of calling GM and threatening leave, and
we got to sit down and adjust it right and
(08:50):
fix it until it works, until it works. And that's
what I did with lots of advocates. You spent the time,
the energy and made them. How do you go on
with somebody if you don't know what to product?
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Can you do a great? You always do a great?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Thank I appreciate it, all right. So you're also doing
a podcast that's been on for quite some time.

Speaker 7 (09:53):
Okay, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
kf I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Peter Tilden's with us.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
He does a podcast called Really No Really with Jason Alexander.
And you do one of these, you do an hour
a week.
Speaker 6 (10:10):
An hour week, we do an hour week, we drop
an hour week. I'm just texting Jason.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
So that's right, honestly, God brother, you know, just talk
to you. Yeah, but he's not an insult too much.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
I had to give him the cue. Yes, it's a distract, buddy.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
But you do this podcast at Howie Mendel's plays.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
Howi Mendel has a huge studio that he uses for
podcasting and people rent it and stuff, and it's wonderful.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
And he has his own podcast, is his own podcast,
and he does with his daughter.
Speaker 6 (10:41):
Yes, and she's great too. They're wondering, I know, the
whole family. They're wonderful. Oh yeah, it's all crazy.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (10:48):
Well, you know what, I've known how he so again
thirty plus years because we used to do Bobby's World together,
So I know, I don't even think about the OCD
with how he how he is.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I heard that Howie Mendel because I talked about this joke.
I tell this Howie Mendel joke on the air all
the time. And when I was younger and he was
doing more stand up before he got into you know,
game shows and announcing all that stuff. He used to
come out on stage and he used to have a
like a purse but a bag, and he was in
the shape of a hand and that he would call
it his handbag, and for some reason I thought that
(11:19):
was funny, and it's like really funny.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
It is funny. It's so what I mentioned on the air.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I heard that somebody said that Howie Mandel Herbie say
it one day and he got pissed and he thought
I was making fun of him, but I'm not. I
thought that was a great gig, that he's got a handbag.
It's in the shape of a hand but it's a bag.
Speaker 6 (11:36):
Can I tell you something? So we did an episode
with Howie really no really, And the thing about the
show is it's got to be stuff and Jason should
be calling on the hotline whatever just yeah, but we
do stuff that makes us go really no, really Okay.
We don't want to be divisive, we don't want to
be political, but if it makes you really no, really,
so how is there? And I thought, you know what,
this guy has to judge and critique people every week.
(11:57):
Think about that, a you got to come up with
new stuff to say. But also you got kids on
that stage you never think about when you've just passed
and said see you later.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
What's the devastation a lot?
Speaker 6 (12:07):
Yeah, Well I found out so we had how we
had how We on an episode about critiquing, and it
got to your point, So talked about that they have
a psychologist backstage who deals with that stuff because they
won't give that.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
People are that sensitive.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
If you've practiced eaten fire while you're bending over background.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Some thing is the aristocrat. But I shouldn't go there.
But if you're thinking, I'm segueing into that.
Speaker 6 (12:26):
But if you're you've practiced stuff for seventeen years, you
get on that stage and it's done, you may be
really devastated, Okay, in front of all of America.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
So isn't you be more embarrassed talking to psychiatrists backstage?
Speaker 6 (12:38):
I don't think so. I think we're in them when
you're in the midst of it. Maybe, yeah, how do
you open up backstay feel comfortable. There's a juggler behind you,
But tell me what's buying.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
But hurry, I'm I got to get to the fire breather.
Speaker 6 (12:48):
To your point though, and we've had Carra toop on too,
how you're very particular here you are, you're making money,
you're big, you're well known, but you're pop comic and
there's some kind of diminished to that so if that's
true that Howie I so defense it's it's a caractop,
I said, grow up, man, Yeah you've got making fifteen
(13:08):
million dollars a year, you got a thirty year contract.
People love you. You just told me George carn like she sad.
What more acclaim do you want? But prop comics are
always looked down, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Jason Alexander's with us from really no really, Jason, how.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
You bubm this? Listening to Peter talk about Howie Mendel.
This is the highlight my day.
Speaker 6 (13:29):
So now you know our relationship already.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Howie Mandel come on like a Gin and Tonic right there.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
You couldn't imagine calling up and go, waitmen, it's gonna
be Howie Mandela talking about prop.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Dude, you want to get.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
In during the exciting motorcycle story that was, you know, fix.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
Nate on the amens Kate e a int ard it
up A.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
That is great. This the podcast you guys do is great.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I listened to it as often as I can, and
it's just it's like sitting around Arts Deli listening to
two guys in a booth just uh, you know, b
as for an hour.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
It really is great. I enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
Yeah, it's the third guy at arts Belly actually knew
something would correct points and somebody who knows what they're
talking about.
Speaker 1 (14:21):
But that's a great story how you guys became friends
that you went on, you know, Peter Tilden's show, and
then Peter Tilden glombed onto you and you can't get
rid of him.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
Yeah, that is That is the best description of our
relationship that I've heard. Yeah, no, it was really you know,
I heard Peter tell it. It is exactly that we
had such a good time on the air. We get
off the air and he goes, you want to go
to breakfast? I go, I kind of do wow, you know.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
And by the way, we.
Speaker 3 (14:47):
Never think it's such an abstract way to meet somebody,
because it's it's performative, you know what you're trying to
But we just kind of clicked in that ten minutes
we had on the air, and then the he's the
brother I didn't have.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
And by the way, and we haven't stopped eating since then.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
As my girlish Sigar will definitely point to.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Yeah, now are you I didn't see it the Emmys
last night? Are you a big fan? Will you watch
the Emmys even if you're not up or anything.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
I didn't see you that you didn't see me at
the Emmys? Wait, was I nominated? I visited? You know?
People are you're going to the Emmys? I go, am
I up for anything? I have watched about we tape it,
you know, so I've watched about half of it. Uh,
and it's you know, it's fun. It's fun to see
uh friends, colleagues, and I'm not I've become less of
(15:42):
a television watcher, so I I'm a little in the dark.
Sometimes somebody will went and I go, I don't know
what they're doing. It's fun. I I I was kind
of over Award shows even when I was part of them.
They aren't, for you the biggest thrill for me in
the world, because I find for the most part, this
notion of some sort of comparative competitive element between anybody
(16:08):
on that show. And I mean, I know it's all
the same business and it's a similar product, but it
couldn't be more different. And so to create oh you're
better than this or you're you know, it just seems
very strange and arbitrary to me. I wish they were
all just here are the people we really admired their
work this year. Here's a whole bunch of the back.
Speaker 6 (16:26):
Didn't give them pie, give them cake, give them food,
they trophy.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Right.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
But but you know, when I don't know how old
you are, we're probably similar in age. But when we
were growing up, you know, we all watched the same thing.
We all watched Happy Days on Tuesdays, Lavernon Shirley, six
Million Dollar Man, the Brady Bunge, you know, Partridge Family.
And now I watched it last night. I haven't seen
any of these shows that are on none of them.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Yeah, and you know I'm listening. I'm talking politics now,
a television politics. The world changed for me when the
Emmy Awards started to include shows from cable because they
don't play by the same rule. So you so, now
you have cable streaming, you know it's to be to
be up for a comedy and.
Speaker 6 (17:12):
You're on ABC or by the way, Jason and I
had the ABC experience.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
We have the ABC experience.
Speaker 6 (17:17):
It's eighty two commercials, right, and you got seven minutes
a show on cable. He's got thirty eight minutes.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
Say any word with a K in it.
Speaker 6 (17:26):
And there are you're competing.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
It's a show.
Speaker 6 (17:27):
They can say whatever they want, and the thirty eight
minutes eight times your length.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Well, it's almost like taking a high school football team
and comparing them to the NFL.
Speaker 2 (17:35):
I mean, it's a very different animal.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
So you know, it's and you know, listen, I love
the Bear. I I am way into The Bear, and
I don't I didn't see the whole Emmy, so don't
tell me who won or less. But you know, as
a staunch fan of The Bear, I've left three times.
I don't take it as a comedy, you know. I
know it's a half hour generally, but it doesn't strike
I've got to tell you something.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
The Bear is closer to a cooking show than this.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
Okay, but but but doesn't Hollywood, don't the other actors
and actresses, writers and producers get pissed because they have to,
you know, they have to consciously submit in the in
the comedy category. And they did that because they knew
they probably couldn't win over you know, some of the
other shows.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
You know, I have no idea. Honestly, I really have
no idea.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
Jason, Jason, we should have submitted all the shows as dramas.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
That's right now you're now you're saying something, Peter, I know,
damn it. And you know what, I'd like to believe
it's not too late. What was the last TV show
in nineteen ninety seven? Let's go back.
Speaker 6 (18:36):
Don't throw cold water on every eye.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
That statue the limitations on our product.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
I don't think that's great.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Jason.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
I really appreciate you calling a huge, huge fan forever
and and and that that show. I hate to say it.
It sucks without you.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Oh you're very sweet, Thank you. I appreciate it.
Speaker 8 (18:53):
By the way, T Just so you know, Jason's working
right now. He's gonna be on Fiddler on the Roof
playing here in the South. Lie that right about a month.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
And a half. Wow, Oh that's cool. What theater are
you guys?
Speaker 3 (19:03):
I have a crazy It's the Lamarada Theater down the Lamarada.
I have a crazy beard going as Peter will test.
Speaker 6 (19:08):
And I got to tell you, Jason is so diligent.
I went to this house the other day and I
asked his wife, where is he was on the roof?
Just believe he really it's amazing, amazing, get over heights
and I.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Have four or five notes down on that biddle. I'm
getting there.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
My mom and dad took me to that movie when
I was very young, and uh, and my dad pointed out,
it's about how family means everything.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Yeah, that's exactly right, and we could.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Use a little more of that nowadays.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
You bet you.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
But I really appreciate coming on my pleasure. Thank you,
Jason Alexander, look at that. We'll talk to you.
Speaker 6 (19:44):
Very good friend of Peter Tilden's all right, can you
stay with this? I can stay based on his ride,
I'm here till nine. Okay, I'm not getting the car
I'm missing. I'm gonna tell that joke that got you fired.
I'll tell they go. You gotta tell the joke that
you got you fired.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
Peter Tilden is with us. We were just talking to
his partner, Jason Alexander. Huge podcast. There's a lot of
people in this building listen to that podcast that really
no real ladder.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Yeah, I'd come up with the title really no really,
So I.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
Didn't want to do a podcast. I'd give Left Radio
with a pretty big audience, and I felt like, if
I say to people I'm doing a podcast, the next
thing I hear is my grandson does a podcast, right,
And I didn't want to do that. So I wanted
to come up with a brand. If I'm going to
do it, to come up with the brand. So I
started thinking about really because Jason, when everyone in the
car always makes me laugh as a guy cuts them
off and he goes really, so that always made me
(20:42):
laugh because really so expressive, right, But yeah, I couldn't
get really dot com. I looked it up. I went
for it, and they wanted like half a million dollars
and I went really, no, really, and I went really no,
really implies. The first answer was BS, tim are you happy? Yeah?
No really really really no? Really so really no really
Jason loved it. To tell your company, iHeart they understood.
The first premise was that I sold it with was
(21:05):
why do they refuse to make the bathroom it's a signer?
Why do they refuse to make the bathroom door go
to the floor? Really they can't do that. I mean
if you can see out, they can see it. Really no, really,
so we got the definitive answer for why they didn't
make the door.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
To why because of the mopping?
Speaker 6 (21:20):
Look at you? Can I sell you something I was
going to do the I can't say them the blank
call answer, which is you got to listen to the podcast.
But since you were the first, what it is is
everybody has an answer. First of all, it's cheaper material wise. Oh,
I say, okay, right, But the janitor doesn't have to
open the doors. He can under all of them. Oh
I get okay, all right, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
But you ever do this where you're in the bathroom
and you're looking in the mirror and you accidentally get
eye contact with the guys sitting on the toilet, you know,
through the.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
Little you can see right in there.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
Yeah, it's horrible, and you have eye contact.
Speaker 6 (21:54):
You don't want see it. He didn't want to see it. No, man,
they really can't line that up. Do you have bathroom shoes?
Excuse me?
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Because people can tell who's in there by the by
what shoes the bathroom? But you have shoes in your
locker you put them on to go to the bathroom,
Someone can tell who it is.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
I don't need bathroom shoes because I do what you do,
Tim go home. No, you either hold it till you
go home.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
Poor.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
You have a bathroom somewhere in the building.
Speaker 6 (22:17):
You travel to because at the real estate you use
this well real estate agency, it quits at five, and
you know what five for you got a half an
hour free time before they clean.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Everybody has their bathroom.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
It's rude to use this bathroom for number two, the one.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
You don't want to hear. You know what, people knowing
what you're doing exactly, that's exactly what sounds I mean.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
I'm gonna tell you I worked at KBC when you
were still there, and I got fired over there in

You're listening to Tim Conway, jun you're on demand from
k f I A M six forty.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
I was called out Peter Tilden in here. I used
to listen to him all the time. He's one of
my favorites.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
You know, I was younger before I got into radio.
I'd listened to him and he was always like the
coolest guy on radio. And I love having that guy in.
That guy's great. Peter Tilden and a real radio guy
brings his own headphones. Just the mic knows what, you know,
how you don't have to say, you know, talk to
talk to the mic. That's a real radio professional, real
radio guy. Don't see that much these days, but he
(28:24):
was huge, his number one in Los Angeles for many,
many years. Yeah, you know, I mean when you know
the Dodgers were over there, and and you know you
had Ken and Bob and David viscatt Ireistelle and that was.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
A big station, and I don't know what happened over there.
We beat their ass. Yeah, I guess, I guess we
got our we got our strength to battles. And said,
that's right, that's right, that's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (28:47):
All right.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
There's another earthquake this morning, right out in Malibu, where
they seem to happen a lot, and the people out
there have a lot of money.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Don't like it. They don't like it at all.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
But I shut off my earthquake alerts. I don't get
the alerts anymore because that panicked me more than the earthquake.
So I shut him down and I erased them from
my phone. I got rid of all the apps, all
the earthquake apps.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
At four this.
Speaker 9 (29:17):
Morning three point six magnitude earthquake, centered three miles north
of Malibu, sort of possibly an after shock of the
quake that we had several days ago. The depth was
seven miles Again, we're going to get basically.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
With the reaction to it. Sounds like she was just
waking up, who cares.
Speaker 9 (29:46):
Sort of possibly an after shock of the quake that
we had several days ago. The depth was seven miles. Again,
We're going to get a lot of aftershocks from that.
I think it was what was like a four point
seven or four point six quaker.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Yeah, because initially it was five point one. Downgraded to
that range. There's already been at least one.
Speaker 9 (30:08):
Three point six, and here's today another three point six magnitude.
We're gonna assume it was an aftershock.
Speaker 2 (30:21):
He's in to screw it, all right. This is something
I can't get over. I've tried.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
I've been a huge fan my whole life of Forehead Meets,
and since the listeria, I can't go back. And I hope,
I hope to go back one day. I can't do it. Though,
I can't do it. I look, I go into a
store and I see boys, and I'm like I don't know.
Speaker 8 (30:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
I hope it's great, but yeah, really no, really, I think.
Speaker 8 (30:45):
I just maybe I'm just too trusting. But I always think, oh, yeah,
they got it under control. Once it hits the news man,
Yeah they're gonna pull everything. We're not gonna find anything back.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
Have at it only I no, no, I've seen stories
like this where you know, kids are eyeing from you know,
a food place, and then they think they have it,
and another kid dies, and then they say they got
it and another kid dies. I'm like, I'm gonna, I'm
gonna sit on the bench for a little while here.
I love Bor's Head. It's always a top quality, great meat.
(31:14):
I've I've been I've been getting it at Pavilions for
probably I don't know, fifteen years, and before that at
you know, Vaughn's or Gelson's. I love barheads meet Bor's
Head meat. But ever since the the you know, the
lasteria outbreak, I just can't come back.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
I don't know.
Speaker 10 (31:30):
There is an update this morning from the popular deli
brand Bor's Head after a deadly listeria outbreak. The company
now says it's closing the Virginia plant tied.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
To that outbreak. Oh no, they're closing it for good.
But you know that's got it.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
That's got to be you know, uh off putting. You know,
if if you're you know, if everything is cool, then
why are you closing the plant? You know, I don't
understand it. I mean, if if you've got everything going again,
then I don't understand the plant closing down.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
All right, let's hear some more break.
Speaker 10 (32:02):
The company now says it's closing the Virginia plant tied
to that outbreak. The company says this shutdown is indefinite.
In a statement, Friday, bars had called the outbreak a
dark moment in its history.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
I think that's a woman who's had listeria.
Speaker 10 (32:18):
Apologizing for the contamination of its liverwurst product. The deli
meat is linked to the deaths of nine.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
People in July.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Oh my god, nine people died. Nine people died, and
I just can't go back. Have you been able to
go back?
Speaker 2 (32:32):
CROs the bors?
Speaker 3 (32:35):
No?
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Yeah, is that wild?
Speaker 6 (32:36):
I'm with you.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I need a little bit more time. What about Angel
You're back? No, not back yet. Were you a big
fan before though? I loved it? Yeah? Me too, me too.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
You know, I like I like the crack pepper turkey
and the the oven the natural oven baked turkey.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Those are my two go tos, and the ham. The
ham was great too. The turkeys are my favorite also,
and I can't go back.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
And also maybe maybe one of the reasons I can't
go back is the market that I go to. They
slice it up and they put it in a package.
You know, they slice the board, his head up, then
they put it in a in a refrigerator and you
can combine and pick it up without happening, you know,
because because nobody wants to cut meat for you nowadays.
You know, if you ask, hey, can I get half
pound of that, he wants to jump over the counter
(33:21):
and strangle you. You know, even though that's his job.
People don't like cutting meat for other people. They feel
like that's they're above that, and they're not, but they
feel like they are. And so whenever you go to
have a guy cut meat, you always have to be
super nice to I'm like, oh man, I love that watch,
oh man, that that shirt that's baccag I love that shirt.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Guys, it's on this turkey sliced.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
And then and then you want to tell him how
you like it sliced, but he already wants to kill
you anyway, Like, hey, can I get that really thin?
Speaker 2 (33:50):
It's like, oh, how thin do you want it?
Speaker 8 (33:54):
That you never I never get an issue. It's like,
if you want it, slice a little thicker.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
But when it's thinner, they because the guy's got to
move his arm twenty times more.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
My deli is awesome. And they slice it thin.
Speaker 9 (34:07):
And after the first few slices they get a little
one of those little paper like parchment papers.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Yea, and they slice it off.
Speaker 3 (34:14):
And they go, here you go, you want to slice?
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Yes, yes, that's the best, man, And especially the paper
between slices. You have put eight slices down, then in
parchment paper, then eight more slices than another piece of paper.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
But I can't go back yet. I don't know what
it is.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
And it's always been my favorite, always been my go
to meat. And I can't go back, man, I don't know. Hopeful,
hopefully one day, one day. I'm live on KFI AM
