Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We got the
three fires burning. Any updates, we'll have that for you.
Looks like these fire chaps, these firemen, fire women, firefighters
have it pretty under control and hopefully they can knock
this down and.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
You know, slide home.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
They've probably been gone from their house for at least
a week, some of these firefighters kicking the nass trying
to knock this thing down. Hopefully they can get a meal,
get home, see the kids, get some sleep, and then
get right back to it the next time. These things explode.
Three major fires here in southern California. Bridge fire which
(00:45):
exploded the other night, went all the way to right Wood,
threatened that town. And then we've had the Line fire
up in Sambour Indian Mountains. It's about fourteen million dollars
forth of damage and growing. And then we had the
airport fire down in Shibuco Canyon. That's a mess burning
over to Lake Elsin or on Riverside. So fortunately the
(01:09):
weather is great and the humidity is up. And speaking
of weather and humidity, this Monday in southern California, a
lot of people will be complaining, and what are you
going to be complaining about this Monday? In southern California,
It's too damn cold. It's gonna be too damn cold
(01:30):
this Monday. On Monday, the low is fifty nine degrees
at night in the San Fernando Valley, fifty nine degrees.
If you're in Malibu, the low on Monday's seventy degrees.
Seventy degrees, sixty nine on Wednesday, frasing, frasing. And let's
(01:53):
say you're I don't know, you're in Irvine, it's gonna
be seventy two degrees again, kind of chili on the
chili side. And if you're in Big Bear, that's where
it's going to be almost technically freezing. Next Tuesday the
low will be thirty nine degrees, the highest sixty two.
And then a Wednesday in Big Bear the lowest forty
(02:16):
three and the highest fifty nine degrees. The highest temperature
it gets in Big Bear next Wednesday is fifty nine degrees.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
That's the high.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
I was blown away just on Monday that walking into
the building here, you know, from the parking lot, it
was just an you couldn't stand. Yeah, it was just
that that just stifling heat you couldn't move, and today
it was downright chili. It just blew me away, the
difference in just three days, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I when we were here, when we came to work yesterday, again,
it was like one hundred and seven degrees or so
the day before, and when we left I could feel
that cool air coming in already. And by the time
I got home, when I walked in, it was about
one hundred and four hundred and five.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
When I got home, it must have been eighty.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Never this thing kicked in and this low came in.
It really cooled Southern California off beautifully.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
And very quickly, very very quickly. Hey have a birthday.
Birthday shout out to my brother Jake.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yeah, let's see how old he is here. Maybe I
shouldn't say it on the air. I don't know if
he's sensive enough sensive about that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Maybe not, but.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
He's great. You know, you always have like one brother
you sort of connect with more than the others. And
with him that was me. We always you know, piled
around and we drove across country. We had a great
time driving across country. We're in a Mustang that it
was rented. We drove it to I did drive it
(03:43):
back to Toronto because I was working in Toronto at
the time. And I said to my casually, I thought
he was gonna say no. I said, hey, tomorrow I'm
driving a cross country you want to go?
Speaker 5 (03:51):
He goes yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I go wow, that's the kind of guy.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Is you know?
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Yeah, I got nothing going on.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I'll just jump the car and we take We took
turns driving and we drove across country. And I probably
shouldn't tell this story on the air either, but we
stopped in Utah our first day. We stopped in Utah
and I wanted I pulled the seats down in the
back and made it flat. In a Mustang you can
pull the newer Mustang pulled the seats down, and I
(04:17):
wanted to get a sleeping bag. And then we went
into Kmart. That's how long ago it was with the Kmart,
and they had sleeping bags there, but they also had
these foam mattresses. So I got the foam mattress for
like nineteen bucks. It was just a piece of foam
and then a sleeping bag put on top of that. Man,
it was comfortable. So I'm driving he's going to take
(04:37):
the first shift. He's going to sleep first and then
drive second. So he gets to the back. He falls
asleep pretty quickly, and he's uh, And we're driving across country.
And then I looked in the rear view mirrorcause I
thought there was a cop behind me, and I looked
in the rear view mirror and I turned around. He's
sleeping on top of the sleeping bag and the mattress.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Nude, totally naked, sleeping in the car. Like, what's going
on with this guy? Casual guy.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
He's also the guy that drove across country with his wife,
with Lisa, and he stopped at a at a rest stop,
and it was like ten o'clock at night. He got tired,
and he stopped at a rest stop. Probably went to
sleep around eleven o'clock at night, and he woke up
the next day at a rest stop off a very
busy highway in Atlanta. He woke up the next day.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
At noon. You know, when you're on the road.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
The first truck that passes you, the first sign of light,
you're up and hitting the road again.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
You're gone.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
But that's how how clean his conscience is, that he
doesn't nothing bothers this guy.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Nothing bothers him. He slept on it and a rest
drop rest stop until noon. I don't get that at all.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
You know, it was in the summer where the sudden
come up at five forty five, So five forty six,
forty five, seven, eight, nine, ten eleven, six hours after
the sun comes up, he's still sleeping.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I drove across country once from from Saint Pete Tampa here,
and I stopped at in New Orleans for a couple hours,
and then I decided let me keep going. It was
like nine o'clock at night. I made it to the
border with Louisiana and Texas, and I stopped at the
rest stop at Louisiana Texas border. It was probably midnight
or so and on at one o'clock, and I was like,
(06:28):
I'll try to catch him sleep.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
The Kragodon like thirty six.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yep up and going, and you got the energy, you
got the adrenaline.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
You got up and you're going. That's all you need
is yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
But you know, when you drive across country, you always
say to yourself, Okay, I'm gonna do another one hundred miles.
I'll do another on hundred miles a sudden you he
did a thousand miles I drove back from I was
driving from Toronto back to Los Angeles and I went
to Wisconsin to see a friend who was going there
to school.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
What is it, I guess Madison. Madison was the town,
and I was.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
In Madison and there was a foot football game that
day and then everyone's gonna go out and party. I'm like,
I'm gonna hit the road, and so I literally got
in the road and I had one of these energy
drinks back then. I think it was just you know,
coffee or just caffeine, straight caffeine. And I drove from Madison,
Wisconsin to Las Vegas without stopping, without resting. It was like,
(07:20):
you know, nineteen hundred miles or something like that. Her
two thousand miles through some mountains too. Oh yeah, and
just kept flying, flying across the country. But it's fun
to drive across country and crows. You have the best
story where your wife got sick and you drove home
without stopping.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Man, Yeah, just a little over a year ago.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, we were in North Carolina and she got She
ended up getting COVID and we left at eight o'clock
that morning and got in a Tuesday morning and got
home at like eight or nine o'clock at night Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yeah, so thirty six hours.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
That was the second time i'd made it in about
that fast, that first one that I was talking about
from from a Saint Pete, Tampa right here, it was
about the same. I left around noon and I got
home about eleven o'clock the next night.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
And you know what's great about coming from east to
west is you gain and you gain three hours. Yes,
you know, at one point you're like you set the
clock bag. Oh, I've been driving free fronds and it's
a free hour.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Got three gimmes. That's right. That's great though.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
You left Tuesday morning from North Carolina and you're in
your bed on Wednesday night in Claremont.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
That's great, all right. Happy birthday to Jamie Conway.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
To Jake Conway, man, love you buddy, Happy birthday. Hope
he's listening. As a matter of fact, Hoby's not listening
cause I don't think you like me to tell it. Story,
but him drive a crook naked all right? Relive Coming
up next is the best. One of the coolest parts
of the show. Dean Sharp's coming on with the next
on KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demyan from kf
I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Dean sharps with us.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
He's on the station every single Saturday morning six to
eight am, Sunday nine to noon.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
He's the house whisper and he's with us. Dean, how
you Bob, I'm great, I'm great. Oh man. I always
leave to hear your voice. Hey, real quickly.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
You wanted to go over something here with the myth
about standing under the door the door jam in an earthquake.
Is that a good place to hang or not? It
doesn't matter. That's really okay, No, it doesn't matter. And
you know I hear it a lot.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
I've heard it all day today, right, and you know,
because you're running into people every the grocery store, people like,
oh you feel the quake. Of course we felt the quake.
Who didn't feel the quake? But you get all these
stories of like, yeah, I was yelling at my kids.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Get under the door, get under the door.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
And so you know, I'm going to talk about this
a little bit on Saturday as well, But just so
everybody knows, if you live in a house built in
southern California anytime after, you know, let's say the nineteen thirties,
a stick frame house, then that old reasoning doesn't apply
(09:55):
to you.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I tell you where it came from. It's kind of weird.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
The origins are a little sketchy, But there's a There
was an earthquake way way early in the nineteen hundreds,
like I don't even remember the date, nineteen oh four,
nineteen oh seven, something like that here in LA and
one of the local newspapers published a photo of a
stone house, I mean a stone house that had been
destroyed by this earthquake, and the only thing standing was
(10:21):
a doorway with the wood posts and lentil. And ever
since that photo there has been this growing myth that
that's the place you should go. That's obviously the one place.
But the truth of the matter is we don't build
houses out of stone or brick in southern California anymore.
And a stick framed house, if it's built well, the
(10:42):
truth is there's no difference between you standing in the
middle of the room, corner of the room next to
a wall, or getting under the doorway. And the reason
I bring that up it's not just a novelty. Sure
more people get injured trying to move, but while the
earthquake is going, then if they just sat.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Down, kneeled down and rode it out right where they are.
Speaker 6 (11:07):
Now, of course, you know, I mean, if you're next
to the Jenga pile of steak knives that you just built,
you know, maybe take a couple of steps away, take
a couple of side steps to the left. But otherwise,
don't worry about it. Just hang on, just hang on.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
We had an earthquake. I was here for the seventy
one earthquake. We're living up in Tarzana on past Darrow Drive,
and remember that. And then we had another one in
nineteen seventy eight, and we were in a house right
off of Magnolia and Balboa, and my dad flipped out
when the earthquake started and he grabbed me. I was
I was, you know, nine, eight or nine at the time,
(11:45):
and he grabbed me by my jacket and pulled me
over the couch. I banged my knee on a table,
and I banged my head on the door, and he
dragged me out and I cut myself on the wall
going out outside and to school the next day. I'm
the only person in our school and maybe the only
person in the valley that was injured in that earthquake.
(12:06):
And it was because my dad dragged me through the
house to get me outside.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
That's exactly what I'm talking about. You're like, whoa Jim,
you got injured by the earthquake. No, it was my
dad assaulted me while the earthquake was happening. That's how
I sustained the injury, exactly right.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
You know, in Burbank there's some talk And I was
watching the Burbank Public Channel the other day and I
couldn't figure out what they're really talking about. But it's
there's some talk in Burbank about making people retro fit
and earthquake earthquake proof their home, even if it's a
wood frame house.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
And I couldn't imagine. I didn't know what they were
talking about. Does that make sense to.
Speaker 6 (12:42):
You, Well, yeah, wood frame houses are great the from
the floor up. But you know, wood frame houses, the
majority of them built before the nineteen forties are are
just sitting I mean literally just sitting on their foundations,
just sitting there. It may not bolted down. They may
have instead of a concrete stem wall instead of the
(13:04):
concrete reaching up and touching the bottom of the wall,
there may be a wood framed cripple wall, like short
little wood studs with no lateral resistance. So that's what
we're talking about. We're not talking about the house. We're
talking about the whole house slipping off the foundation and
then that's you know, that's a complete ruin of a
(13:25):
perfectly otherwise perfectly good house. So yeah, the retrofitting that
we're talking about. When you hear about like the California
Earthquake Authority lottery to pay to help you retrofit a house,
seismically retrofit older homes, we're talking about homes that need
to be bolted more securely to their foundations so they
don't slip off. Not worried about the house itself from
(13:46):
the floor up collapsing. It's just the whole thing ending
up in your neighbor's yard. Not a good thing when
you're in Again, Dean Sharvis's with us. The house whisper.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
When you're talking to people at a either a hardware
store or another construction person, do you whisper that term
when you talk about it, You're like, well, we got
to put in a a crippled wall.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Do they still use that term?
Speaker 7 (14:11):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (14:12):
Do they use the term cripple well, cripple, cripple cripple? No, no, no,
this is not this is not a slur. Why they
still use that term crippled wall? It's crippled. I don't
even Honestly, I don't even know. I don't even know
the origin of that term. I just tell you that
a cripple wall, cripple wall is a short a very
(14:34):
short stud wall.
Speaker 7 (14:36):
You know.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
It's one that's filling in a space that isn't a
full height wall. Uh, and not a half wall, which
would be a pony wall, don't. I guess that's a
pony wall because I guess you could throw a saddle
on it and ride it.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
But if it's shorter than a pony wall, then it's
a well, it's ay.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
But you know, there are some terms, like you know
in Pennsylvania, and I'm not sure if California has followed
suit yet. I'm sure they will, but you know, there
are some terms you can't use when describing a house
in Pennsylvania. You can't use room with a view because
of people who are a site impaired. They don't use
master bedroom anymore, and they don't use walk in closet
(15:14):
for people that you know, they don't have ability to
to to walk.
Speaker 6 (15:19):
Yeah, okay, well, I guess eventually you just say, here's
the house, here's the house. What do you call that? Yes,
there it is? Maybe there it is? I get the
master you know, we've done that out here too. It's
no longer ec to say master bedroom. We're talking about
the primary bedroom, primary bedrooms, and secondary bedrooms because the
(15:40):
master although I mean, I know, I assume that it's
a that it's when you if you travel back far enough,
it ends up being a slave reference. I think that's
the concern. I think the upstairs down class reference. I
don't know about, you know, walk.
Speaker 7 (15:55):
In and that.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Yeah, okay, I'm not sure.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
Honestly, I'm not sure anybody in a wheelchair is offended
by other people walking around.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
I think you're right, but I'll be wrong about that.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Okay, let's talk about fire hardening your house. We've had
three major fires, some minor fires, and people are always
interested in how to protect what, you know, is for
the most part, their lifelong investment, their entire you know,
retirement is tied up in this house.
Speaker 6 (16:24):
Absolutely, the most important thing we could talk about is
vents into the attic. Okay, because here's what you need
to know. The majority of homes that are destroyed in wildfires,
I mean the vast majority are not in the path
of the fire. Really think about like a yeah, no,
(16:45):
really it is embers being thrown off these wild especially
our hillside grass fires embers. Now we keep upping the
ante I think it's up to two miles now. The
official term that a hot ember from a wildfire could
travel in the right condition a couple of miles and
remain hot enough to burn when it lands. And what
(17:05):
happens is these super light embers, I mean they are
so wispy and light, carried by the wind. Once they
get near your house, your house, your attic with low
vents under the eve and then higher vents up according
to building code. There's nothing wrong with that. Your house
on a warm day is acting like a convection of
and there's a vacuum around your house. And if you
(17:28):
don't have ember proof vents, vents that baffle and keep
those envers from sliding right into the attic, those embers
end up in your attic where they are in the
perfect position to set attics on fire. And again, the
vast majority of homes that are destroyed in wildfires, the
fires in those homes were not because the path of
(17:48):
the fire licked up against the side of the house.
It's because embers got there first and started these s
y all of a sudden, the fire department struggling because
they're fighting the wildfire on the hill, and then four
blocks away, three houses are on fire, and then they've
got to put you know, people over there. And then
two blocks away, four more houses are on fire. This
is all about at events, and you can change out
(18:12):
your at events. You can retrofit your at events with
ember baffling vents. And if you live literally within two
miles of any large open space in southern California, I
strongly recommend that you take the time, you spend a
little bit of money, you change out your vents.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Good, save your life.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
But I appreciate you coming on. You're gonna be talking
about that this weekend then huh.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Earthquakes on Saturday and fires on Sunday. All right, excellent,
thanks for coming on. We'll talk to you soon. Thanks Tim.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
All right, there he goes Dean Sharp. This weekend Saturday
and Sunday morning on KFI.
Speaker 4 (18:45):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Well, it's six thirty seven and everything. Every single Thursday,
we do a segment called What's going on with this guy?
What's going on with this guy?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
The suspect leads behind clusters of grapes and chocolate, but.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
He's leaving back behind.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
He's taking grapes and chocolate, which are two no nos
if you have a dog, and leaving him near a
doggy daycare, so the dogs eat it and get sick
or die. And again the segment's called what's going on
with this guy?
Speaker 8 (19:24):
The suspect leads behind clusters of grapes and chocolate, both foods,
like you said, that are dangerous and poisonous to dogs.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Surveillance video from outside.
Speaker 8 (19:32):
Dog Topia dog daycare and boarding facility shows the suspect
crouching down by some dirt and leaving behind something on
the ground.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Yeah, grapes and chocolate. You know what they should make
this guy do. Eat a blowfish that hasn't been cut
properly and see how he likes it.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
See if he passes away.
Speaker 8 (19:51):
People who work in the business say the person's purposely
putting grapes and chocolate next to some rise or noodles
to entice the dog to eat it.
Speaker 5 (19:59):
Vetermin areans say, small, God.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Has this city in this state gotten weird? You know,
the guy that allegedly started that fire in I guess
it's the line fire, you know, and starting a fire.
Even my daughter, who you know, is not really hip
to crime or you know why people can make crime
or anything, but even she said, the other night we
were watching the news and the news came on about
(20:22):
this this guy who started the fire. She said to me,
She goes, Dad, what, what's the purpose of being that
kind of criminal? And I said, well, what do you mean?
And she said, well, what does the guy get out
of it? You know, there's no monetary gain. He's not
going to be able to retire on it. He's not
gonna be able to buy himself. He's just gonna be
in anything. He's just gonna be able to watch it
on TV. And I said, yeah, but that's how sick
(20:43):
some people are, where they start a fire, then they
like to go home and watch all the coverage, knowing
that they caused all that.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you see this gigantic thing of destruction
that that is just pully so many resources and costing
so much money and affecting so many people's lives.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
The ego that people can have to go I did that. Yeah,
I think there's a high. I think you can get
high on that. Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I don't want to try it, but but I think
i'd probably be susceptible to that kind of crap.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
You know, vetermin areaans say small amounts of grapes can
cause kidney failure and could be deadly for dogs.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Did you hear that grapes kidney failure for dogs? Keep
the grapes away from the dog. I just always thought
that grapes were a choking hazard. I didn't realize that
they were actually unhealthy for you. Yeah I didn't either,
I used to. I mean I was a I'm a
big grape fan. Hey, you know, I like to throw
them up in the air and catch him with my mouth,
and if they hit the ground, I don't look for them.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
And we have due two dogs, so they're okay.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
Chocolate can make a dog really sick, but only if
it eats a significant amount compared to the size.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
Of the dog.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Well that's the same with human beings. I mean, if
I had, you know, fourteen pounds of chocolate, I wouldn't
be feeling well.
Speaker 8 (21:48):
A manager at dog Topia says the person has been
targeting Foothill Boulevard for several months now. Ellie County Supervisor
Katherine Barker says she's outraised as someone's going out of
the way to hurt dogs and they're unsuspecting owners. She
wants this person stopped immediately.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I think a lot of people do. I don't think
she's saying anything dangerous here.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
She wants this person stopped immediately.
Speaker 8 (22:10):
We all do saying animal cruelty should never be tolerated,
and it's just plain wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
That's right. I'm a grape guy.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
I'm a grape guy. Yeah, you got to listen carefully.
It sounds like I'm a great guy, all right. A
dog rescued from a hot car. What's going on with this?
Speaker 5 (22:34):
Owners?
Speaker 9 (22:35):
Animal control officers rescued a dog from a hot car
with the doors locked and the windows rolled up. This
happened Thursday in Newport Beach when temperatures were in the nineties.
Officers found the dog panting heavily inside of that locked
vehicle at a shopping center parking lot. After successfully or
unsuccessfully rather trying to find the vehicle's owner, officers then
had to break the window to free the dog, who
(22:55):
was then rendered aid. Newport Police say they did issue
a citation to the owner.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Yeah, how about the dog.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
The dog is probably like, wait a minute, I almost
died in that car, and my owner's just getting.
Speaker 2 (23:06):

She's tied with Beyonce thirty. Okay, all right, that's a lot.
That's a lot of those a little you know astrodies.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
Man, Yes, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand
from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Literally about two minutes ago, maybe three minutes ago, there
was a launch out of Vandenberg SpaceX sounded something like this.
Maybe you saw, and I think darling to really see properly.
The best ones are after the sun goes down, but
(26:04):
the rocket goes in a pighing up where it is
still in the sunshine.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
But this is out of Vanderberg.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
A few moments ago, and your chamber pressure is not
at all right through the clouds.
Speaker 5 (26:18):
Live.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
SpaceX Falcon nine rocket launched twenty two Starlink satellites from
Vandenberg Air Force Base or Space Force Base, i should say.
And that's up north of Santa Barbara. Man, that is
really cool to see. And they're so frequent now that
it's not a big deal anymore. But man, when I
(26:39):
was a kid, to see about one every five years,
maybe ten years, But now you see them all the time,
and and it's.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Really cool to see.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Also, the the boosters come down and land perfectly, almost
every time, so SpaceX max Q.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
I do know what that means.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
I guess maximum pressure is what that is maximum dynamic pressure.
But it's too cloudy, too hazy in Orange County to
see this or San Berndino or its.
Speaker 7 (27:13):
Good light of the Falcon nine. So far as we're
about a minute and a half into this mission, Falcon
nine pulling away from the California coastline. We're coming up
on a trio of events and fairly rapid succession here
at about a minute.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
And that's when you see the boosters separate and then
come and land back on.
Speaker 7 (27:34):
We'll see first stage manage and cut off at T
plus two minutes twenty six seconds. That'll be followed by
a stage separation about four seconds after that, and then
second stage engines start SS one T plus two minutes
thirty six.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Seconds, literally five minutes ago.
Speaker 7 (27:49):
That'll be capped by faring to playment just after the
three minute mark. It's a little more than two minutes
into flight.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
It's been flying for two minutes since, going fifty seven
hundred miles an hour, we're fifty seven.
Speaker 7 (28:02):
Nice curvature of the Earth on the left hand side
of your screen here.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
It's already fifty miles above earth. Man, somebody went to
school longer than I did. Put all this together, and
then you'll see the rocket separating. They have separation.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
You get call out from SpaceX. Here some great views
at both stages.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
And then you'll see this rocket booster.
Speaker 7 (28:26):
About three and a half minutes into this flight that.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Come down to Earth. Let's see if it lands without
tipping over and exploding. Here, man, this is always cool
to see Vandenberg SpaceX Falcon nine. And they're going to
land this thing, this booster on a pad and they
landed there almost every time without failure. The thing comes
(28:50):
down with those fins flipping around, and the last it
goes through the clouds, going through the clouds right now,
and then the last minute it will ignite, power up
and a soft landing.
Speaker 7 (29:04):
By beginning, we should see some views from the drone
ship coming up on the right hand.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
Side of your screen.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Here it is about the land landing the poy. Well,
it's landing on a raft this time. Mayor does it
all the time, but it's gonna land right there on
a raft. Wow, look at that.
Speaker 7 (29:21):
And eighteenth time, nearly at sunset, good landing of this We.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Get that that that booster came down and landed on
a raft and that's that the that's the eighteenth time
that they've used that booster. That's incredible, man, that really
is really is cool. Sorry that I get so into this,
but the technology there is just so great. Okay, that's
(29:49):
one end of the spectrum. Great technology going up to
space elon Musk SpaceX satellites, the whole run.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Here's the the ying to that.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Yang guys who are still breaking into homes in the valley.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
Another break in at a home in Encino. This time
it was the home of Reggie Bush.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Reggie Bush and Thencino got his home broken into.
Speaker 12 (30:11):
According to ABC News, the former usc Star was there
at the time. It scared off the would be burglars
before they took anything. The LAPD says it got a
call from someone at the home who heard a window
being broken. By the time officers got there, the suspects,
three men were all gone at least say the men
never made it inside the home and there was no
direct confrontation with Bush or with anyone else.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
On real All right, we're all going it.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
We all pay a lot in taxes, gas, a car registration,
you got to get your car smogged every couple of
years if you got of an older car.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
We pay a lot.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
For grocery, groceries, We pay a lot for almost everything,
car insurance, home insurance, education, We really pay a lot
in California. And now you know electricity, water power, natural gas,
pay a lot for that as well.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
And now we're going to pay more for sewage.
Speaker 13 (31:04):
Residents could soon see their sewer bill go up twenty
two percent over the next few years.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Twenty two percent for the next two or three years
until it doubles. So we're going to be paying one
hundred percent over the next three or four years.
Speaker 13 (31:16):
The city Council today will consider implementing new rates that
would be used to maintain the aging water system.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Under the proposal, the sewer.
Speaker 13 (31:24):
Charge for the average home would jump from seventy five
to ninety two dollars. It would then increase to one
hundred and fifty five dollars.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
Who the hell's dying in the background.
Speaker 13 (31:33):
It would then increase to one hundred and fifty five
dollars in July twenty twenty eight. The council gave a
preliminary approval last month, but now it requires a second vote.
It must also be approved by Mayor Karen Bass.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, so if you live in the city of la
you're gonna have to pay to pooh and somebody's dying
in the background.
Speaker 13 (31:50):
It would then increase to one hundred and fifty to
one hundred and fifty five dollars. In July twenty twenty eight,
the council.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Gave oh Man something he's got COVID.
Speaker 13 (32:00):
The council gave a preliminary approval lest this isn't that cough?
It would then increase to one hundred and fifty five.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
That's a that's a wet radical cough.
Speaker 13 (32:09):
To one hundred and fifty five dollars. Somebody went to
work like that to one hundred and fifty five dollars.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Mark Ronner, who's part of the mo Kelly Show, I'll
bet listening to a cough like that drives you crazy.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Oh I cough like that constantly, kidn't he.
Speaker 14 (32:26):
I have allergies that didn't act to me until I
moved here, and I've got acid reflux, so I constantly
have to tell people it's okay, I don't have the plague.
You don't need to flee at full speed like Usain
bolt from me.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Okay, I heard you talking last night that you're tired
of being woken up to say hey, we were having
a minor earthquake, and then literally twelve hours later it happened.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
It happened again today.
Speaker 14 (32:48):
Yeah. Yeah, I was woken up by my girlfriend, not
the earthquake. She wanted to know if I was awake
to feel the earthquake, and I'm like, can I just
go back to sleep?
Speaker 2 (32:58):
You know that's a correct.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Did you end up waking up and going with Mo
to the to the Gary and Shannon remote.
Speaker 14 (33:05):
Well, I decided, as much as I feel loyalty to workers,
my time was better spent sleeping through the earthquake.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I was listening to the show last night with my
wife and we bet on it. I bet you were
going and she said no way. Really yeah, she said,
there's no way that guy's getting up to go.
Speaker 14 (33:24):
Well, I mean, I bet on you. I bet on you.
I don't have anything against day drinking.
Speaker 5 (33:29):
Yeah, I got it.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I'm going to do it at some point, but but
it sounded fun. You know, MO was going to drive
you down. You could drink, drink and then drive you home. Well,
like a pretty good deal.
Speaker 14 (33:37):
At some point it becomes kind of difficult to tell
when we're just whining each other up here, and when
we mean what we say. If you thought we meant it,
I'm going to go with you.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
Well look, if you can bs me, you can bs
anybody I work here, right, so h praise Yeah? All
right Mo Kelly his old crew and coming up next
right here on KFI A six forty Conway show go
on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you can always
hear us live on KFI AM six forty four to
seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand on
(34:11):
the iHeartRadio app
It's KFI AM six and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We got the
three fires burning. Any updates, we'll have that for you.
Looks like these fire chaps, these firemen, fire women, firefighters
have it pretty under control and hopefully they can knock
this down and.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
You know, slide home.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
They've probably been gone from their house for at least
a week, some of these firefighters kicking the nass trying
to knock this thing down. Hopefully they can get a meal,
get home, see the kids, get some sleep, and then
get right back to it the next time. These things explode.
Three major fires here in southern California. Bridge fire which
(00:45):
exploded the other night, went all the way to right Wood,
threatened that town. And then we've had the Line fire
up in Sambour Indian Mountains. It's about fourteen million dollars
forth of damage and growing. And then we had the
airport fire down in Shibuco Canyon. That's a mess burning
over to Lake Elsin or on Riverside. So fortunately the
(01:09):
weather is great and the humidity is up. And speaking
of weather and humidity, this Monday in southern California, a
lot of people will be complaining, and what are you
going to be complaining about this Monday? In southern California,
It's too damn cold. It's gonna be too damn cold
(01:30):
this Monday. On Monday, the low is fifty nine degrees
at night in the San Fernando Valley, fifty nine degrees.
If you're in Malibu, the low on Monday's seventy degrees.
Seventy degrees, sixty nine on Wednesday, frasing, frasing. And let's
(01:53):
say you're I don't know, you're in Irvine, it's gonna
be seventy two degrees again, kind of chili on the
chili side. And if you're in Big Bear, that's where
it's going to be almost technically freezing. Next Tuesday the
low will be thirty nine degrees, the highest sixty two.
And then a Wednesday in Big Bear the lowest forty
(02:16):
three and the highest fifty nine degrees. The highest temperature
it gets in Big Bear next Wednesday is fifty nine degrees.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
That's the high.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
I was blown away just on Monday that walking into
the building here, you know, from the parking lot, it
was just an you couldn't stand. Yeah, it was just
that that just stifling heat you couldn't move, and today
it was downright chili. It just blew me away, the
difference in just three days, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
I when we were here, when we came to work yesterday, again,
it was like one hundred and seven degrees or so
the day before, and when we left I could feel
that cool air coming in already. And by the time
I got home, when I walked in, it was about
one hundred and four hundred and five.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
When I got home, it must have been eighty.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Never this thing kicked in and this low came in.
It really cooled Southern California off beautifully.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
And very quickly, very very quickly. Hey have a birthday.
Birthday shout out to my brother Jake.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yeah, let's see how old he is here. Maybe I
shouldn't say it on the air. I don't know if
he's sensive enough sensive about that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
Maybe not, but.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
He's great. You know, you always have like one brother
you sort of connect with more than the others. And
with him that was me. We always you know, piled
around and we drove across country. We had a great
time driving across country. We're in a Mustang that it
was rented. We drove it to I did drive it
(03:43):
back to Toronto because I was working in Toronto at
the time. And I said to my casually, I thought
he was gonna say no. I said, hey, tomorrow I'm
driving a cross country you want to go?
Speaker 5 (03:51):
He goes yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I go wow, that's the kind of guy.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
Is you know?
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Yeah, I got nothing going on.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I'll just jump the car and we take We took
turns driving and we drove across country. And I probably
shouldn't tell this story on the air either, but we
stopped in Utah our first day. We stopped in Utah
and I wanted I pulled the seats down in the
back and made it flat. In a Mustang you can
pull the newer Mustang pulled the seats down, and I
(04:17):
wanted to get a sleeping bag. And then we went
into Kmart. That's how long ago it was with the Kmart,
and they had sleeping bags there, but they also had
these foam mattresses. So I got the foam mattress for
like nineteen bucks. It was just a piece of foam
and then a sleeping bag put on top of that. Man,
it was comfortable. So I'm driving he's going to take
(04:37):
the first shift. He's going to sleep first and then
drive second. So he gets to the back. He falls
asleep pretty quickly, and he's uh, And we're driving across country.
And then I looked in the rear view mirrorcause I
thought there was a cop behind me, and I looked
in the rear view mirror and I turned around. He's
sleeping on top of the sleeping bag and the mattress.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Nude, totally naked, sleeping in the car. Like, what's going
on with this guy? Casual guy.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
He's also the guy that drove across country with his wife,
with Lisa, and he stopped at a at a rest stop,
and it was like ten o'clock at night. He got tired,
and he stopped at a rest stop. Probably went to
sleep around eleven o'clock at night, and he woke up
the next day at a rest stop off a very
busy highway in Atlanta. He woke up the next day.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
At noon. You know, when you're on the road.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
The first truck that passes you, the first sign of light,
you're up and hitting the road again.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
You're gone.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
But that's how how clean his conscience is, that he
doesn't nothing bothers this guy.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Nothing bothers him. He slept on it and a rest
drop rest stop until noon. I don't get that at all.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
You know, it was in the summer where the sudden
come up at five forty five, So five forty six,
forty five, seven, eight, nine, ten eleven, six hours after
the sun comes up, he's still sleeping.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
I drove across country once from from Saint Pete Tampa here,
and I stopped at in New Orleans for a couple hours,
and then I decided let me keep going. It was
like nine o'clock at night. I made it to the
border with Louisiana and Texas, and I stopped at the
rest stop at Louisiana Texas border. It was probably midnight
or so and on at one o'clock, and I was like,
(06:28):
I'll try to catch him sleep.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
The Kragodon like thirty six.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Yep up and going, and you got the energy, you
got the adrenaline.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
You got up and you're going. That's all you need
is yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
But you know, when you drive across country, you always
say to yourself, Okay, I'm gonna do another one hundred miles.
I'll do another on hundred miles a sudden you he
did a thousand miles I drove back from I was
driving from Toronto back to Los Angeles and I went
to Wisconsin to see a friend who was going there
to school.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
What is it, I guess Madison. Madison was the town,
and I was.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
In Madison and there was a foot football game that
day and then everyone's gonna go out and party. I'm like,
I'm gonna hit the road, and so I literally got
in the road and I had one of these energy
drinks back then. I think it was just you know,
coffee or just caffeine, straight caffeine. And I drove from Madison,
Wisconsin to Las Vegas without stopping, without resting. It was like,
(07:20):
you know, nineteen hundred miles or something like that. Her
two thousand miles through some mountains too. Oh yeah, and
just kept flying, flying across the country. But it's fun
to drive across country and crows. You have the best
story where your wife got sick and you drove home
without stopping.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Man, Yeah, just a little over a year ago.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, we were in North Carolina and she got She
ended up getting COVID and we left at eight o'clock
that morning and got in a Tuesday morning and got
home at like eight or nine o'clock at night Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
Yeah, so thirty six hours.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
That was the second time i'd made it in about
that fast, that first one that I was talking about
from from a Saint Pete, Tampa right here, it was
about the same. I left around noon and I got
home about eleven o'clock the next night.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
And you know what's great about coming from east to
west is you gain and you gain three hours. Yes,
you know, at one point you're like you set the
clock bag. Oh, I've been driving free fronds and it's
a free hour.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Got three gimmes. That's right. That's great though.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
You left Tuesday morning from North Carolina and you're in
your bed on Wednesday night in Claremont.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
That's great, all right. Happy birthday to Jamie Conway.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
To Jake Conway, man, love you buddy, Happy birthday. Hope
he's listening. As a matter of fact, Hoby's not listening
cause I don't think you like me to tell it. Story,
but him drive a crook naked all right? Relive Coming
up next is the best. One of the coolest parts
of the show. Dean Sharp's coming on with the next
on KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demyan from kf
I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Dean sharps with us.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
He's on the station every single Saturday morning six to
eight am, Sunday nine to noon.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
He's the house whisper and he's with us. Dean, how
you Bob, I'm great, I'm great. Oh man. I always
leave to hear your voice. Hey, real quickly.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
You wanted to go over something here with the myth
about standing under the door the door jam in an earthquake.
Is that a good place to hang or not? It
doesn't matter. That's really okay, No, it doesn't matter. And
you know I hear it a lot.
Speaker 6 (09:20):
I've heard it all day today, right, and you know,
because you're running into people every the grocery store, people like,
oh you feel the quake. Of course we felt the quake.
Who didn't feel the quake? But you get all these
stories of like, yeah, I was yelling at my kids.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Get under the door, get under the door.
Speaker 6 (09:35):
And so you know, I'm going to talk about this
a little bit on Saturday as well, But just so
everybody knows, if you live in a house built in
southern California anytime after, you know, let's say the nineteen thirties,
a stick frame house, then that old reasoning doesn't apply
(09:55):
to you.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I tell you where it came from. It's kind of weird.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
The origins are a little sketchy, But there's a There
was an earthquake way way early in the nineteen hundreds,
like I don't even remember the date, nineteen oh four,
nineteen oh seven, something like that here in LA and
one of the local newspapers published a photo of a
stone house, I mean a stone house that had been
destroyed by this earthquake, and the only thing standing was
(10:21):
a doorway with the wood posts and lentil. And ever
since that photo there has been this growing myth that
that's the place you should go. That's obviously the one place.
But the truth of the matter is we don't build
houses out of stone or brick in southern California anymore.
And a stick framed house, if it's built well, the
(10:42):
truth is there's no difference between you standing in the
middle of the room, corner of the room next to
a wall, or getting under the doorway. And the reason
I bring that up it's not just a novelty. Sure
more people get injured trying to move, but while the
earthquake is going, then if they just sat.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Down, kneeled down and rode it out right where they are.
Speaker 6 (11:07):
Now, of course, you know, I mean, if you're next
to the Jenga pile of steak knives that you just built,
you know, maybe take a couple of steps away, take
a couple of side steps to the left. But otherwise,
don't worry about it. Just hang on, just hang on.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
We had an earthquake. I was here for the seventy
one earthquake. We're living up in Tarzana on past Darrow Drive,
and remember that. And then we had another one in
nineteen seventy eight, and we were in a house right
off of Magnolia and Balboa, and my dad flipped out
when the earthquake started and he grabbed me. I was
I was, you know, nine, eight or nine at the time,
(11:45):
and he grabbed me by my jacket and pulled me
over the couch. I banged my knee on a table,
and I banged my head on the door, and he
dragged me out and I cut myself on the wall
going out outside and to school the next day. I'm
the only person in our school and maybe the only
person in the valley that was injured in that earthquake.
(12:06):
And it was because my dad dragged me through the
house to get me outside.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
That's exactly what I'm talking about. You're like, whoa Jim,
you got injured by the earthquake. No, it was my
dad assaulted me while the earthquake was happening. That's how
I sustained the injury, exactly right.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
You know, in Burbank there's some talk And I was
watching the Burbank Public Channel the other day and I
couldn't figure out what they're really talking about. But it's
there's some talk in Burbank about making people retro fit
and earthquake earthquake proof their home, even if it's a
wood frame house.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
And I couldn't imagine. I didn't know what they were
talking about. Does that make sense to.
Speaker 6 (12:42):
You, Well, yeah, wood frame houses are great the from
the floor up. But you know, wood frame houses, the
majority of them built before the nineteen forties are are
just sitting I mean literally just sitting on their foundations,
just sitting there. It may not bolted down. They may
have instead of a concrete stem wall instead of the
(13:04):
concrete reaching up and touching the bottom of the wall,
there may be a wood framed cripple wall, like short
little wood studs with no lateral resistance. So that's what
we're talking about. We're not talking about the house. We're
talking about the whole house slipping off the foundation and
then that's you know, that's a complete ruin of a
(13:25):
perfectly otherwise perfectly good house. So yeah, the retrofitting that
we're talking about. When you hear about like the California
Earthquake Authority lottery to pay to help you retrofit a house,
seismically retrofit older homes, we're talking about homes that need
to be bolted more securely to their foundations so they
don't slip off. Not worried about the house itself from
(13:46):
the floor up collapsing. It's just the whole thing ending
up in your neighbor's yard. Not a good thing when
you're in Again, Dean Sharvis's with us. The house whisper.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
When you're talking to people at a either a hardware
store or another construction person, do you whisper that term
when you talk about it, You're like, well, we got
to put in a a crippled wall.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Do they still use that term?
Speaker 7 (14:11):
What do you mean?
Speaker 6 (14:12):
Do they use the term cripple well, cripple, cripple cripple? No, no, no,
this is not this is not a slur. Why they
still use that term crippled wall? It's crippled. I don't
even Honestly, I don't even know. I don't even know
the origin of that term. I just tell you that
a cripple wall, cripple wall is a short a very
(14:34):
short stud wall.
Speaker 7 (14:36):
You know.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
It's one that's filling in a space that isn't a
full height wall. Uh, and not a half wall, which
would be a pony wall, don't. I guess that's a
pony wall because I guess you could throw a saddle
on it and ride it.
Speaker 7 (14:48):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
But if it's shorter than a pony wall, then it's
a well, it's ay.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
But you know, there are some terms, like you know
in Pennsylvania, and I'm not sure if California has followed
suit yet. I'm sure they will, but you know, there
are some terms you can't use when describing a house
in Pennsylvania. You can't use room with a view because
of people who are a site impaired. They don't use
master bedroom anymore, and they don't use walk in closet
(15:14):
for people that you know, they don't have ability to
to to walk.
Speaker 6 (15:19):
Yeah, okay, well, I guess eventually you just say, here's
the house, here's the house. What do you call that? Yes,
there it is? Maybe there it is? I get the
master you know, we've done that out here too. It's
no longer ec to say master bedroom. We're talking about
the primary bedroom, primary bedrooms, and secondary bedrooms because the
(15:40):
master although I mean, I know, I assume that it's
a that it's when you if you travel back far enough,
it ends up being a slave reference. I think that's
the concern. I think the upstairs down class reference. I
don't know about, you know, walk.
Speaker 7 (15:55):
In and that.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Yeah, okay, I'm not sure.
Speaker 6 (16:00):
Honestly, I'm not sure anybody in a wheelchair is offended
by other people walking around.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
I think you're right, but I'll be wrong about that.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
Okay, let's talk about fire hardening your house. We've had
three major fires, some minor fires, and people are always
interested in how to protect what, you know, is for
the most part, their lifelong investment, their entire you know,
retirement is tied up in this house.
Speaker 6 (16:24):
Absolutely, the most important thing we could talk about is
vents into the attic. Okay, because here's what you need
to know. The majority of homes that are destroyed in wildfires,
I mean the vast majority are not in the path
of the fire. Really think about like a yeah, no,
(16:45):
really it is embers being thrown off these wild especially
our hillside grass fires embers. Now we keep upping the
ante I think it's up to two miles now. The
official term that a hot ember from a wildfire could
travel in the right condition a couple of miles and
remain hot enough to burn when it lands. And what
(17:05):
happens is these super light embers, I mean they are
so wispy and light, carried by the wind. Once they
get near your house, your house, your attic with low
vents under the eve and then higher vents up according
to building code. There's nothing wrong with that. Your house
on a warm day is acting like a convection of
and there's a vacuum around your house. And if you
(17:28):
don't have ember proof vents, vents that baffle and keep
those envers from sliding right into the attic, those embers
end up in your attic where they are in the
perfect position to set attics on fire. And again, the
vast majority of homes that are destroyed in wildfires, the
fires in those homes were not because the path of
(17:48):
the fire licked up against the side of the house.
It's because embers got there first and started these s
y all of a sudden, the fire department struggling because
they're fighting the wildfire on the hill, and then four
blocks away, three houses are on fire, and then they've
got to put you know, people over there. And then
two blocks away, four more houses are on fire. This
is all about at events, and you can change out
(18:12):
your at events. You can retrofit your at events with
ember baffling vents. And if you live literally within two
miles of any large open space in southern California, I
strongly recommend that you take the time, you spend a
little bit of money, you change out your vents.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Good, save your life.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
But I appreciate you coming on. You're gonna be talking
about that this weekend then huh.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
Yep, yep.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Earthquakes on Saturday and fires on Sunday. All right, excellent,
thanks for coming on. We'll talk to you soon. Thanks Tim.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
All right, there he goes Dean Sharp. This weekend Saturday
and Sunday morning on KFI.
Speaker 4 (18:45):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Well, it's six thirty seven and everything. Every single Thursday,
we do a segment called What's going on with this guy?
What's going on with this guy?
Speaker 8 (19:02):
The suspect leads behind clusters of grapes and chocolate, but.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
He's leaving back behind.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
He's taking grapes and chocolate, which are two no nos
if you have a dog, and leaving him near a
doggy daycare, so the dogs eat it and get sick
or die. And again the segment's called what's going on
with this guy?
Speaker 8 (19:24):
The suspect leads behind clusters of grapes and chocolate, both foods,
like you said, that are dangerous and poisonous to dogs.
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Surveillance video from outside.
Speaker 8 (19:32):
Dog Topia dog daycare and boarding facility shows the suspect
crouching down by some dirt and leaving behind something on
the ground.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Yeah, grapes and chocolate. You know what they should make
this guy do. Eat a blowfish that hasn't been cut
properly and see how he likes it.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
See if he passes away.
Speaker 8 (19:51):
People who work in the business say the person's purposely
putting grapes and chocolate next to some rise or noodles
to entice the dog to eat it.
Speaker 5 (19:59):
Vetermin areans say, small, God.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Has this city in this state gotten weird? You know,
the guy that allegedly started that fire in I guess
it's the line fire, you know, and starting a fire.
Even my daughter, who you know, is not really hip
to crime or you know why people can make crime
or anything, but even she said, the other night we
were watching the news and the news came on about
(20:22):
this this guy who started the fire. She said to me,
She goes, Dad, what, what's the purpose of being that
kind of criminal? And I said, well, what do you mean?
And she said, well, what does the guy get out
of it? You know, there's no monetary gain. He's not
going to be able to retire on it. He's not
gonna be able to buy himself. He's just gonna be
in anything. He's just gonna be able to watch it
on TV. And I said, yeah, but that's how sick
(20:43):
some people are, where they start a fire, then they
like to go home and watch all the coverage, knowing
that they caused all that.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you see this gigantic thing of destruction
that that is just pully so many resources and costing
so much money and affecting so many people's lives.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
The ego that people can have to go I did that. Yeah,
I think there's a high. I think you can get
high on that. Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
I don't want to try it, but but I think
i'd probably be susceptible to that kind of crap.
Speaker 8 (21:07):
You know, vetermin areaans say small amounts of grapes can
cause kidney failure and could be deadly for dogs.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Did you hear that grapes kidney failure for dogs? Keep
the grapes away from the dog. I just always thought
that grapes were a choking hazard. I didn't realize that
they were actually unhealthy for you. Yeah I didn't either,
I used to. I mean I was a I'm a
big grape fan. Hey, you know, I like to throw
them up in the air and catch him with my mouth,
and if they hit the ground, I don't look for them.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
And we have due two dogs, so they're okay.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
Chocolate can make a dog really sick, but only if
it eats a significant amount compared to the size.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
Of the dog.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Well that's the same with human beings. I mean, if
I had, you know, fourteen pounds of chocolate, I wouldn't
be feeling well.
Speaker 8 (21:48):
A manager at dog Topia says the person has been
targeting Foothill Boulevard for several months now. Ellie County Supervisor
Katherine Barker says she's outraised as someone's going out of
the way to hurt dogs and they're unsuspecting owners. She
wants this person stopped immediately.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
I think a lot of people do. I don't think
she's saying anything dangerous here.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
She wants this person stopped immediately.
Speaker 8 (22:10):
We all do saying animal cruelty should never be tolerated,
and it's just plain wrong.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
That's right. I'm a grape guy.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
I'm a grape guy. Yeah, you got to listen carefully.
It sounds like I'm a great guy, all right. A
dog rescued from a hot car. What's going on with this?
Speaker 5 (22:34):
Owners?
Speaker 9 (22:35):
Animal control officers rescued a dog from a hot car
with the doors locked and the windows rolled up. This
happened Thursday in Newport Beach when temperatures were in the nineties.
Officers found the dog panting heavily inside of that locked
vehicle at a shopping center parking lot. After successfully or
unsuccessfully rather trying to find the vehicle's owner, officers then
had to break the window to free the dog, who
(22:55):
was then rendered aid. Newport Police say they did issue
a citation to the owner.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Yeah, how about the dog.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
The dog is probably like, wait a minute, I almost
died in that car, and my owner's just getting.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
A ticket for that. That's a ticket. Interesting, We're the
great exactly. That's a great dog.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Greape dog, all right. MTV Awards, Taylor Swift cleaned up.

He's like, well, peer kids, what's that?

That's a lot of those a little you know astrodies.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
Man, Yes, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand
from KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Literally about two minutes ago, maybe three minutes ago, there
was a launch out of Vandenberg SpaceX sounded something like this.
Maybe you saw, and I think darling to really see properly.
The best ones are after the sun goes down, but
(26:04):
the rocket goes in a pighing up where it is
still in the sunshine.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
But this is out of Vanderberg.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
A few moments ago, and your chamber pressure is not
at all right through the clouds.
Speaker 5 (26:18):
Live.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
SpaceX Falcon nine rocket launched twenty two Starlink satellites from
Vandenberg Air Force Base or Space Force Base, i should say.
And that's up north of Santa Barbara. Man, that is
really cool to see. And they're so frequent now that
it's not a big deal anymore. But man, when I
(26:39):
was a kid, to see about one every five years,
maybe ten years, But now you see them all the time,
and and it's.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Really cool to see.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Also, the the boosters come down and land perfectly, almost
every time, so SpaceX max Q.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
I do know what that means.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
I guess maximum pressure is what that is maximum dynamic pressure.
But it's too cloudy, too hazy in Orange County to
see this or San Berndino or its.
Speaker 7 (27:13):
Good light of the Falcon nine. So far as we're
about a minute and a half into this mission, Falcon
nine pulling away from the California coastline. We're coming up
on a trio of events and fairly rapid succession here
at about a minute.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
And that's when you see the boosters separate and then
come and land back on.
Speaker 7 (27:34):
We'll see first stage manage and cut off at T
plus two minutes twenty six seconds. That'll be followed by
a stage separation about four seconds after that, and then
second stage engines start SS one T plus two minutes
thirty six.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
Seconds, literally five minutes ago.
Speaker 7 (27:49):
That'll be capped by faring to playment just after the
three minute mark. It's a little more than two minutes
into flight.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
It's been flying for two minutes since, going fifty seven
hundred miles an hour, we're fifty seven.
Speaker 7 (28:02):
Nice curvature of the Earth on the left hand side
of your screen here.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
It's already fifty miles above earth. Man, somebody went to
school longer than I did. Put all this together, and
then you'll see the rocket separating. They have separation.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
You get call out from SpaceX. Here some great views
at both stages.
Speaker 2 (28:24):
And then you'll see this rocket booster.
Speaker 7 (28:26):
About three and a half minutes into this flight that.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Come down to Earth. Let's see if it lands without
tipping over and exploding. Here, man, this is always cool
to see Vandenberg SpaceX Falcon nine. And they're going to
land this thing, this booster on a pad and they
landed there almost every time without failure. The thing comes
(28:50):
down with those fins flipping around, and the last it
goes through the clouds, going through the clouds right now,
and then the last minute it will ignite, power up
and a soft landing.
Speaker 7 (29:04):
By beginning, we should see some views from the drone
ship coming up on the right hand.
Speaker 5 (29:07):
Side of your screen.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Here it is about the land landing the poy. Well,
it's landing on a raft this time. Mayor does it
all the time, but it's gonna land right there on
a raft. Wow, look at that.
Speaker 7 (29:21):
And eighteenth time, nearly at sunset, good landing of this We.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Get that that that booster came down and landed on
a raft and that's that the that's the eighteenth time
that they've used that booster. That's incredible, man, that really
is really is cool. Sorry that I get so into this,
but the technology there is just so great. Okay, that's
(29:49):
one end of the spectrum. Great technology going up to
space elon Musk SpaceX satellites, the whole run.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Here's the the ying to that.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Yang guys who are still breaking into homes in the valley.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
Another break in at a home in Encino. This time
it was the home of Reggie Bush.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Reggie Bush and Thencino got his home broken into.
Speaker 12 (30:11):
According to ABC News, the former usc Star was there
at the time. It scared off the would be burglars
before they took anything. The LAPD says it got a
call from someone at the home who heard a window
being broken. By the time officers got there, the suspects,
three men were all gone at least say the men
never made it inside the home and there was no
direct confrontation with Bush or with anyone else.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
On real All right, we're all going it.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
We all pay a lot in taxes, gas, a car registration,
you got to get your car smogged every couple of
years if you got of an older car.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
We pay a lot.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
For grocery, groceries, We pay a lot for almost everything,
car insurance, home insurance, education, We really pay a lot
in California. And now you know electricity, water power, natural gas,
pay a lot for that as well.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
And now we're going to pay more for sewage.
Speaker 13 (31:04):
Residents could soon see their sewer bill go up twenty
two percent over the next few years.
Speaker 1 (31:08):
Twenty two percent for the next two or three years
until it doubles. So we're going to be paying one
hundred percent over the next three or four years.
Speaker 13 (31:16):
The city Council today will consider implementing new rates that
would be used to maintain the aging water system.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Under the proposal, the sewer.
Speaker 13 (31:24):
Charge for the average home would jump from seventy five
to ninety two dollars. It would then increase to one
hundred and fifty five dollars.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
Who the hell's dying in the background.
Speaker 13 (31:33):
It would then increase to one hundred and fifty five
dollars in July twenty twenty eight. The council gave a
preliminary approval last month, but now it requires a second vote.
It must also be approved by Mayor Karen Bass.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, so if you live in the city of la
you're gonna have to pay to pooh and somebody's dying
in the background.
Speaker 13 (31:50):
It would then increase to one hundred and fifty to
one hundred and fifty five dollars. In July twenty twenty eight,
the council.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Gave oh Man something he's got COVID.
Speaker 13 (32:00):
The council gave a preliminary approval lest this isn't that cough?
It would then increase to one hundred and fifty five.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
That's a that's a wet radical cough.
Speaker 13 (32:09):
To one hundred and fifty five dollars. Somebody went to
work like that to one hundred and fifty five dollars.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Mark Ronner, who's part of the mo Kelly Show, I'll
bet listening to a cough like that drives you crazy.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Oh I cough like that constantly, kidn't he.
Speaker 14 (32:26):
I have allergies that didn't act to me until I
moved here, and I've got acid reflux, so I constantly
have to tell people it's okay, I don't have the plague.
You don't need to flee at full speed like Usain
bolt from me.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Okay, I heard you talking last night that you're tired
of being woken up to say hey, we were having
a minor earthquake, and then literally twelve hours later it happened.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
It happened again today.
Speaker 14 (32:48):
Yeah. Yeah, I was woken up by my girlfriend, not
the earthquake. She wanted to know if I was awake
to feel the earthquake, and I'm like, can I just
go back to sleep?
Speaker 2 (32:58):
You know that's a correct.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Did you end up waking up and going with Mo
to the to the Gary and Shannon remote.
Speaker 14 (33:05):
Well, I decided, as much as I feel loyalty to workers,
my time was better spent sleeping through the earthquake.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I was listening to the show last night with my
wife and we bet on it. I bet you were
going and she said no way. Really yeah, she said,
there's no way that guy's getting up to go.
Speaker 14 (33:24):
Well, I mean, I bet on you. I bet on you.
I don't have anything against day drinking.
Speaker 5 (33:29):
Yeah, I got it.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
I'm going to do it at some point, but but
it sounded fun. You know, MO was going to drive
you down. You could drink, drink and then drive you home. Well,
like a pretty good deal.
Speaker 14 (33:37):
At some point it becomes kind of difficult to tell
when we're just whining each other up here, and when
we mean what we say. If you thought we meant it,
I'm going to go with you.
Speaker 5 (33:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
Well look, if you can bs me, you can bs
anybody I work here, right, so h praise Yeah? All
