KFI uh KFI AM six forty dot com. That'll give
you all those directions in there.

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Well.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
One of the great things about Pastathon every year here
at the White House and Anaheim, besides the fact that
you can come by and see us, and that Moe
Kelly will be here in the evening in another hour
or so and his show will be going on and
you can come by and see him. In addition is
all the sort of familiar faces the people who come
through and support and donate every year. And among them

(01:18):
is this guy, the VP of Cottie Foods, Ed Garragus.
Come on, guys, it is his birthday to day. Everybody,
that's right, Happy birthday, Ed?

Speaker 8 (01:32):
Not the problem.

Speaker 9 (01:33):
I kind of like the fact that Tim's doing this
and they'll pay you will.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
No, it's nothing.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
They're not big, they're not looking at you, but they
are paying attention to you.

Speaker 9 (01:42):
So we've just slid that birthday right through and now
we can move on to talking about important stuff, what people.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Really don't care about radio.

Speaker 5 (01:48):
There's the camera and everybody chant around.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
I think that's a big deal.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
But let me ask you, just because you don't want
to talk about it, so the are you doing anything
special for your birthday.

Speaker 4 (01:58):
Independent of this? No? This is good enough, is it? Really?
You don't have any kind of birthday plan? No?

Speaker 10 (02:07):
No, no, no.

Speaker 8 (02:08):
I put that like sixty years or fifty years ago.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
Look at you a very humble kind of god.

Speaker 6 (02:13):
I gotta ask, do you eat something from Wendy's every
single day?

Speaker 8 (02:17):
That would be no, no, no.

Speaker 5 (02:19):
So you're doing it today for your birthday.

Speaker 9 (02:21):
Yes, I didn't have stuff these today. I had chicken
sandwich today.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (02:27):
Unfortunately, I'm not in the stores as much as I'd
like to be.

Speaker 8 (02:29):
I'm in the office a lot.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
You've got a lot of stores to deal with. How
many different Wendy's locations are there?

Speaker 9 (02:36):
We have fifty four in southern California and eleven over
in Hawaii. That's just why, and then I'm fifty in
the Midwest.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Now, Wendy's is the square burger, right it is? And
when did that start? With the first Wendy's they went square?

Speaker 8 (02:52):
Yeah, he went square from the beginning.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
And that was kind of the thing that was like
a distinguishing feature.

Speaker 8 (02:58):
Of Yes, that was from day one.

Speaker 9 (03:00):
He went tom with the square burger, and that was
what separated him from everybody else.

Speaker 8 (03:05):
Plus the fact that's always been.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Fresh and it was Dave what's his last name again,
Dave Thomas. Dave Thomas. He used to be on the
continue on the TV commercials and it was really effective.

Speaker 9 (03:14):
And he was really good on the communis connection with
the people.

Speaker 6 (03:18):
Was the Square Hamburger was that intentional? Was it just
for a marketing thing or was there practicality involved with it?

Speaker 9 (03:23):
You know, I couldn't answer that. The guy over there
and right could he's been around since then.

Speaker 11 (03:27):
The Square Hamburger?

Speaker 3 (03:28):
Was that intentional?

Speaker 5 (03:29):
Was that just marketing?

Speaker 4 (03:31):
Intentional?

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Was it marketing or was intentional?

Speaker 6 (03:33):
He says, don't cut, car, don't cut I absolutely love that.

Speaker 4 (03:39):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (03:40):
Well, the message as to whyatt Square, though, did get
lost somehow through the generation.

Speaker 4 (03:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
Anyway, so tell us tell us about Wendy's in relation
to Katerina's Club. It's sure you've been you've been linked
to Katerina's Club in the Pastathon for some time.

Speaker 9 (03:56):
It's been about three years now, and we were looking
for something in southern California to support. This was a
good organization to support.

Speaker 4 (04:05):
You know.

Speaker 9 (04:06):
It's kind of sad that, you know, there's kids that
go home at nighttime and they don't have anything to eat.
And you know, my wife's a teacher and she talks
about you know, when kids come to school in the morning,
she can tell which ones had a meal and which
ones didn't have a meal.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
It's such a rough life that when we've met so
many of these kids who've grown up and they've been
helped immenseally by this program. Yeah, and so you stepped
up and did what.

Speaker 9 (04:33):
Well, we just got the whole group down here. Everybody
in California is a franchise e. It's no corporate stores.
So we got the whole group together and they all
agreed on it. They were on board right before COVID
hit and that stopped everything. Sure, and then as soon
as COVID got over, they jumped on board again.

Speaker 4 (04:52):
That's terrific.

Speaker 2 (04:53):
Wait, when you get all the franchisees together, is it
hard to get them on board? Like they all came
on board for this Katerina's Clubs? But on most things
are there is there some disagreement or are there some.

Speaker 10 (05:07):
For it?

Speaker 4 (05:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (05:08):
That was for my answer.

Speaker 9 (05:11):
No, they sometimes it can be like hurting cats and
other times everybody agrees.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
Right, So that's so great that they all agreed to
be part of Katarina's.

Speaker 8 (05:18):
Yeah, it was very good.

Speaker 6 (05:20):
There was no decision on the guys are doing the
coupon books right now?

Speaker 4 (05:23):

Speaker 8 (05:24):
You're doing those till we're doing them till the end of.

Speaker 6 (05:27):
The week, and there's five bucks apiece, five dollars for
the value.

Speaker 7 (05:31):
In them as much better than yes, five bucks.

Speaker 9 (05:34):
Yeah you figure. You know, you get fourteen dollars worth
of free food.

Speaker 6 (05:37):
Fourteen dollars free food, and not five dollars that people
they have.

Speaker 9 (05:40):
Five dollars goes straight to the kids. It feeds one
kid for a week or five kids for a day.

Speaker 4 (05:45):

I don't know if anybody welcomed you.

Speaker 10 (21:20):
America. Welcome here.

Speaker 4 (21:21):
Just what a.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
Success story you have coming to this country with two
hundred bucks in your pocket. Where did you first when
you came to the country.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
Did you go to New York first?

Speaker 10 (21:30):
No? I came to Walnut, which is after Damond Bar. Okay,
it was a French restaurant in Brea called Levandros, which
I called the mother of my restaurant because that's why
I started as a dishwasher. And I went to a dishwasher,
to buzz boy, to wadeo, to cartain these devig Just
still remember my first tip of what was it? Five

(21:52):
dollar on table toy six for the I used to
remember the last name, but I forget now. But I
still run like five dollar tips.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
Wait on a two hundred dollars tab. I know the
last name of the guy.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
I was like, it was so so serviced. I wasn't
crazy for it.

Speaker 10 (22:15):
It was a dream come true.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
So where you come here? Turning about your pocket? Do
you have any place to stay or do you know
about it?

Speaker 10 (22:22):
I have my adult sister. She that's the reason I
came to learn English. Honestly, I was supposed to be
here for two three months, learn English, go back home
because peak French to pig Italian. I want to walk
in some results area, and I said, Stala, can I
come over for a few months to learn English. I
was listened Barbra Skreis on record because her voice was

(22:44):
so clean for me to learn English, it was cool.
I was listening to lavon and surely on TV because
that's the only best. The best way to learn English
is to listen to English talk. But I didn't have
English friends, and the only my sister.

Speaker 11 (23:01):
Do you still know the song.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Incorporated?

Speaker 3 (23:11):
You'll take it?

Speaker 1 (23:13):
Give us any room, will break in We're gone come
true the city.

Speaker 10 (23:22):
That's the best way to learn English. To listen to
people speak English and you repeat and Silano, which is
my nephew, my GM here. He was probably five years
old with his sister six at night time, used to say,
this is a fok, this is a knife.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
He said four.

Speaker 6 (23:44):
Thank god you said that.

Speaker 10 (23:45):
Yeah, he was teaching English a night time that dinner table,
because I didn't know any world.

Speaker 11 (23:50):
You didn't know a look of English when you got here.

Speaker 10 (23:52):
Nada.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
Wow, that is wild.

Speaker 10 (23:55):
In fact, I was. When I was a buzzboy, it
was okay, we can't do the I do the st business.
But when they promoted me as a waiter, as freaking out.
I had to tell the story. I go to table
table to a couple, say hi, what would you like
to drink? Exactly the same way. I hear so many drinks,

(24:20):
but that drink. I never knew what it was. I
never heard that world, she said. I said what I want?
A grasshopper?

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Okay, I said what I want?

Speaker 10 (24:30):
A grasshopper? And doctor, give a piece of pepper pansy?
Please can you write for me? I don't understand what
you want?

Speaker 4 (24:39):
Wow.

Speaker 10 (24:39):
And I go to the bat tender say this, lady,
want this to give me this drink? Green drinks? You know, like,
what's not that easy?

Speaker 4 (24:48):
That's kind of a sweet story. That's sweet.

Speaker 10 (24:51):
But you know what, I was happy because when they
hire me, I was with my sister because she speak
English for me, and they say, you know what is
been woken the restaurant business for almost ten years in Europe.
But if it does a speak English only job, I
can give him as a dishwasher. My sister was embartsed
to tell me, I look at us like they don't
want to hire me. Yeah, but as a dishwasher, said yeah,

(25:15):
I was happy. That was about that great, I'm welcome it.

Speaker 5 (25:21):
You never forgot what a grasshopper was after that moment.

Speaker 10 (25:23):
Now, if I had a Silvando's grandmother used to come here.
There was a feather drink. I look at her. They
could not drink something else. They give me goosebuds. Still,
after that so many.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Years, Maddy, I really appreciate you having us down here
and opening up your restaurant to all these people.

Speaker 11 (25:40):
And really I can't thank you enough for all the
work you can.

Speaker 10 (25:43):
Yes, yes, Before I go, I want to say thank
you to everybody at K five. K five is the
family to Caterina's Club. I keep telling people we talk
K five. I would have to cut fifty percent of
what we do. That I mean, the K five is
off army you guys, everybody's give this morning and you,
all of you and everybody who listened to donate it

(26:06):
to K five Catarina's Club. Without you, we couldn't do
what we do. Ten million meals was celebration this year that.

Speaker 4 (26:14):
We so wow.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Ten million meals that is unbelievable.

Speaker 11 (26:19):
Thank you everything.

Speaker 7 (26:22):
We are live no Kelly.

Speaker 12 (26:24):
Next, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
k f I A M six forty dams a career.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Yeah, nice, keep it up stud all right.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
I thought Conway hit the road, but here he has.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
You know I've never given out everybody, DG and nog.
We got some more here too, y'all. What a great song.
Huh Laverna, Shirley. Look at this dessert that Bruno made
for us.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
That's insanely beautiful watching Jim watch it.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Ding doll, It's like a big ding dong and some strawberries,
Ladies and gentlemen, seven pm.

Speaker 4 (27:24):
Mo Kelly, everybody hold on mo Kelly.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
And mo Kelly does show every single night with Ronner
and Steph Bosh works with you and Tuala as well
and h and every Friday, you have my favorite segment
you do at nine o'clock with the movies. That has
got to take a lot of work.

Speaker 7 (27:46):
It does, but it's fun because the response I get
from listeners is wonderful. It's a nice bonding point because
we all know the movies, we love the movies, we
have memories tied to the movies. And I know you're
probably yelling at the radio like most.

Speaker 1 (27:59):
People like it's such a such movie. You don't know, right,
and especially when the title is in the cliffip, do
you give me a t But.

Speaker 7 (28:08):
It's a good way to end the week. It's a
good way to just kind of decompress from all the
heaviness of the news and just sort of move into
the weekend. Now, a lot of the people who call
it happen to be under the influence of one or
two or three different things.

Speaker 4 (28:22):
But that's okay.

Speaker 7 (28:22):
We don't judge, you know, just just be comfortable, be
your true self.

Speaker 11 (28:26):
I like listening when I get home.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Then they turn onto the house, and every time there's
a big story, whether it's Joe Biden's not in the
race anymore, whether Donald Trump won, whether Joe Biden gave
his son a pardon.

Speaker 11 (28:39):
You break it down.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
Where the people who are against all of the all
of the news, you sort of tell them it's gonna
be okay.

Speaker 7 (28:48):
Well, not only is it gonna be okay, it's never
just this or that. There's probably something in between. Life
is not black and white. It's a whole lot of gray.
And although we want to root for this person that person,
or this side or that side, there's a lot of
nuance in life. And if we take our time and
just examine some things, we could probably better understand them.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Now, I'm a huge fan of Stevie Wonder, but for
some reason you and Tuala either had worked with him,
or met him, or had an experience with him that
was odd.

Speaker 7 (29:19):
Which one, I mean, all of them are the case that, Yeah,
you're a fan of Stevie Wonder, and most people don't
know he will sing Stevie Wonder in the studio, and
I've gotten some video of him singing Stevie Wonder, so
he's legit. Tula had booked him for a concert, I
had worked with him and booked him interview or a
number of times. Stevie is a different cat, as they say,

(29:42):
if the interview time is twelve o'clock.

Speaker 4 (29:44):
He may show up by four.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
Oh really?

Speaker 11 (29:46):
Oh yes, he's not held to any schedule.

Speaker 7 (29:48):
And how should I say this?

Speaker 4 (29:52):
He loves.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Michael Crozier.

Speaker 7 (29:55):
What's the word I should use? Because you know what
I'm born for here he is very appreciated. Tip of
the ladies. Yes, women, Yes, I was gonna say ladies,
but yes, yes.

Speaker 6 (30:04):
He came in one time to the old canf I
Studios in uh in Koreatown because he was actually looking
to buy a radio station figuratively speaking.

Speaker 5 (30:12):
No literally, because I asked him.

Speaker 7 (30:14):
I saw, I said, what are you doing here?

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Stevie wanted?

Speaker 5 (30:16):
He goes just looking around?

Speaker 4 (30:20):
That's so what you say?

Speaker 5 (30:23):
He's an interesting cat?

Speaker 7 (30:25):
Yes, yes, yes, he's not the person that you would
think he would be.

Speaker 1 (30:29):
Did you bring anybody down with Jenny from the show?
Does Rona coming down?

Speaker 4 (30:32):
Or Rona's not coming down?

Speaker 7 (30:33):
Okay, here's the thing, Ronner is U is listening right now?
He's probably met Ronner. He's very sensitive to the idea
of getting sick, and we were begging him to come
down last year and he was worried about getting COVID.

Speaker 1 (30:45):
I said, don't worry about it just come on down.
You can wear your mask.

Speaker 11 (30:47):
He came down, he wore his mask.

Speaker 4 (30:49):
He caught COVID. He's not coming back.

Speaker 11 (30:52):
It's horrible true story, horrible true story.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
You know, I like uh Roner does the best movie
reviews in Los Angeles, if not the world. Nobody knows
more about movies than that guy.

Speaker 7 (31:03):
He has such a history as a writer, as someone
who has interviewed people. He has an interview resume, which
is fantastic. He doesn't give himself enough credit, and he's
very humble, where you don't know that he's so talented
in so many ways because he doesn't tell you everything.
But every once in a while it slips out. And
I think it slips out most when he does his

(31:24):
movie reviews, because he's a walking encyclopedia.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
He is terrific. And then when you know he does
a movie reviews, I love watching that. But I also
if I'm up late drinking, which occasionally happens, I know
that I can always call him up until four thirty
or five am, because he's like me, he's up all night.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
True story.

Speaker 7 (31:45):
He does not get out of the studio until usually
around midnight. He may not go to sleep before the
sun comes up. Wow heat every single day, every single day.
I don't know how he does it.

Speaker 6 (31:55):
Hey, we want to push one more time because it's
going on until nine forty five tonight.

Speaker 5 (31:58):
All the auction items in Booting for Mo. You can
actually co host a Friday Night which.

Speaker 6 (32:04):
Tim always talks about with MO on his night long
three hour long.

Speaker 5 (32:08):
So that's going on for another three hours from now.

Speaker 6 (32:11):
The auction items are going John Cobelt all that and
Tim conw we can go to a King's game with
him or not.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
The highest bidder on Mo's right now is a guy
named Mark Ronner.

Speaker 7 (32:24):
We got three hours to change.

Speaker 4 (32:25):
That is hot.

Speaker 11 (32:26):
But anyway, like to thank Belly Oh ladies and gentlemen.
