t’s Tim vs. Bellio in the great ironing showdown—Tim pays $3.50 a shirt, but Bellio undercuts him with a $2 offer and challenges him to an official iron-off. Then, a big announcement: the LA Chargers are returning to KFI, with coverage kicking off Thursday! Tim also shares a fun listener moment at Walmart that gave him a quick brush with fame. Later, the hour shifts to a familiar LA debate - is graffiti in the 2nd Street Tunnel art or just plain vandalism? Tim dives into the growing crime concerns in Studio City, Encino, and Woodland Hills, pointing out the irony of communities that once pushed to defund police now dealing with waves of theft. Plus, an update on the NYC shooting: the gunman took his own life, sending tourists and workers into chaos. And back in LA, one robbery victim shares her happy ending—along with her full address. Tim weighs in on that decision and breaks down the psychological aftermath of being robbed.

It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. I quick
shout out to a couple of people I met over
the weekend. I was at the OTB in Glendale betting
the horse races, and the woman said, hey, you have
a radio voice. You won the radio I said yeah,

name is Peggy and she was very helpful. So give
her a huge shout out. Peggy over at the OTB
in Glendale. And then I went to Walmart with my winnings.
Winning well, I won a couple of bucks, and I
went to buy an iron and a good iron, a

(00:40):
steamer like a you know, to iron my clothes, and
a good ironing board. Because I'm spending seventy bucks every
time I go to the cleaners. I figured I could
just do it at home, you know, just iron at home.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
I got an idea, Oh yeah, I will iron your
shirts for two dollars a shirt.

Speaker 1 (00:58):

Speaker 1 (01:32):
I'll put them in the dryer, put a little you know,
sprits on them, drink them all up. Okay, I'll bring
them in, and I think I could beat you in
the iron iron contest.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
We're gonna have an iron off.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
We're having an iron off, that's right. I'll bring in
two iron boards, two irons. Do you have an iron

I'll bring my iron and you choose your weapon.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
But you're going to buy one?

Speaker 1 (02:02):
No, but I don't know if you can buy a
good one at at you know, Walmart, I think you
gotta go.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
No, I think you industrial iron.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
I'd like you have one of those machines that they
haven't a cleaners, where you put the shirt on and
then you pull the handle down.

Speaker 3 (02:15):
Just you know.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
When I was sixteen, I got hired at a laundry
Mountain Golden, Colorado. Wow, maybe seventeen whatever. And I went
and I showed up to work and they were teaching
me on that big steam iron thing. And it was
so hot back there, and I did not like it.
And I went home for lunch and I never went back.

Speaker 3 (02:37):
Really horrible.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Oh my god, I never know that. I never knew
you to be like that kind of person.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
You're not that kind of person.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
It's just I guess for an afternoon I was I felt.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
Bad you didn't give a two week notice.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
No, really, I know that was.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
You know.

Speaker 1 (02:54):
A friend of mine, his son got his first job.
He was sixteen years old, and after about six weeks there,
he goes, I hate this job. I gotta get a
new job. I think I'm going to quit. And my
buddy said to his son, Okay, we got to give
a two week notice, and he says, okay, So we
went in The next day, he goes, here's my two
week notice, I'm out of here, and and he didn't

(03:14):
understand what a two.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
Week not is.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Yeah, that's what I did too.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
I didn't understand what you didn't know the two week notice,
I didn't know. I'll blow you away in ironing. I
think you'll be like, wow, I will not.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
Oh yeah, then why haven't you been ironing your own shirt? Now?

Speaker 4 (03:31):
Lazy? Lazy?

Speaker 1 (03:34):
But I like the whole idea of spraying the starch
on and the when you press that button.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
I think like the first shirt you iron will be perfect. Okay,
I think we should iron five shirts because by the
time you get to.

Speaker 4 (03:50):
The fifth, it's going to be lazy city.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
Lazy city where mine will be as good as the first.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Okay, we'll have a h we'll have an iron off.

Speaker 3 (03:59):
But don't just use this as a way to get
me to iron your shirts for free.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
Well, I think you really need to do ten for
me to see the pattern. Maybe twenty. But we're we
got to change the hot dog day from Thursday to
Wednesday this week. Why is that because we're not gonna
be here on Thursday. We're not, I don't think so.

Speaker 6 (04:18):
Why?

Speaker 4 (04:18):
Yeah, I can't tell you why.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
Now you have to because now you've just told your
audience that you're not going to be here.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
What's going on?

Speaker 1 (04:25):
There is a beautiful pre season football game. We're gonna
be the NFL station. We're gonna be carrying NFL game.

Speaker 3 (04:35):
Oh for the Chargers.

Speaker 4 (04:36):
That's right, We're back, that's right.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
So we are not okay, yeah, all.

Speaker 4 (04:43):
Right, but I got another shout out here.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
So I got to Walmart last night and I picked
the shortest line and I'm and I'm buying a few things,
few items I need, you know, for home. And the
woman says, hey, are you on the radio? And I'm like, wow,
twice in the day, that's pretty cool. And her name
is me Shell Vanlander, van Lin, van London, Van Lindon,

(05:06):
Van Linden, Michelle van Lindon. I go, oh, you listen
to the KFI And she says, no, my mom does.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
We'll take it.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
I'll take it. We'll take it, Kathy van London.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
But she knew about so clearly she must listen.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
Hey, look, she recognized my voice. She had to, you know.

Speaker 1 (05:23):
She blew it off like her mom was the only
you know.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
What are you saying that? These people recognize your voice.

Speaker 4 (05:29):
What am I saying?

Speaker 7 (05:30):
What?

Speaker 8 (05:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:31):
What are you saying to them?

Speaker 5 (05:35):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (05:36):
I just say it is this line open? Or I like,
you know two across on the five horse.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
Well, are you wearing that KFI T shirt?

Speaker 4 (05:45):
You know what I used to do?

Speaker 1 (05:47):
And then everyone's like, uh, you know that, you know,
I can't stand that. Angel Martina, she yeah, she got
me caught up in traffic.

Speaker 4 (05:56):
She didn't you know, she reported on a sing alert
that I.

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Was in Did you report I've even gotten stuck in traffic?

Speaker 1 (06:02):
I've And then one chick was like, I was in Hawaii.
There's a big traffic jam, but she didn't report on.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
It to pronounce if it was. If I can't pronounce it, it
doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Angel Martinez does traffic for Hawaii, for Honolulu, and if
she is it for the whole state or just Honolulu.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
It's for Oahu, okay, all right?

Speaker 4 (06:27):
For a Wahu.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
And if she comes across a street that's too difficult
to pronounce, that traffic jam doesn't exist.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
That's a true story.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
So Kathy van van Landen and Michelle van Landon, thank
you for listening to Kathy. Yeah, that's kind of cool.
So Kathy, Michelle and Peggy, how about that. I'm out
there buzzing around in Glendale and Burbank, and I got
all these women after me, Kathy, Michelle and Peggy, That's right,
they're all after me. They're like, wow, this guy. You

(07:02):
see what this guy is?

Speaker 3 (07:02):
The iron your shirts?

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Maybe they should you know, what the hell? If my
wife was in town, she would do it. She's great
at irony, great irony.

Speaker 4 (07:12):
Are we got taggers?

Speaker 1 (07:13):
When we come back, we'll talk about this. The taggers
are getting so brazen in La. You know what the
tigers do in La. They tell the people who are
you know, like the cops, and the people come out
and paint over the taggers, over the tagging. They just say, hey,
don't waste city money on it. We're just gonna come
back and do it again. And they have conversations like
that with the cops. We live in like an alternate

(07:36):
universe where the cops pull up and go, hey, please
don't do that, and then they do it anyway. So
there's a tunnel downtown where they constantly come in spray
paint over the tagging, and then the taggers come out
the very next night we never are going to win.
It is going to be tag city for us to
our lives.

Speaker 6 (07:55):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI AMC.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
We got taggers downtown LA that tag buildings tag in
this case Second Street Tunnel. Then the city comes out
and paints all over it, paints it all white or
cream colored. And then the very next night the same
taggers are out and they do the same thing over
and over. So the taggers are telling the city, hey,

(08:22):
stop painting over this stuff. You're just wasting city money.

Speaker 4 (08:26):
How ballsy is that?

Speaker 1 (08:29):
Where the taggers run the town and they're telling the city, hey,
don't waste your money on that paint. We're just gonna
do it again and again and again, And when the
cops come up, instead of resting them, the cops just go, hey, guys,
please don't do that, and they do it anyway. Well,
that's where we live in a city where the criminals
run the joint and they do. You know, we're all

(08:53):
locked in our homes every night thinking we're gonna get
broken into, especially if you live in the hills north
of Van Olden And or Moholland. North of Moholland and
south of Ventura Boulevard. That's where the damage is being done.
Studio City, then Sherman Oaks, Andsino Tarzana, Woodland.

Speaker 4 (09:14):
Hills all the way up to Calabasas.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
That's where they're striking, and they're coming after your stuff
because it's very difficult for cops to get into that area.
Narrow streets, dark streets, a lot of turns, a lot
of ways to get out in and out of that area.
And they come in and they're very brazen. They come

(09:39):
in during the day, they break in, they know they're
being filmed, they know they're being followed, and they don't care.
They're taking they're taking your stuff. You've worked your whole
life for stuff. Now they want it and they're going
to take it. So let's go to these taggers here
in downtown LA who are telling the city to stop
wasting money on painting. Over tagging, you're wasting your money,

(09:59):
and that's what they these. The city didn't take long
at all for this to happen. Go ahead and take
a look.

Speaker 7 (10:03):
You might be able to see if you take a
zoom in on where the city came in and painted
this tunnel. There's that line of paint the difference in.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
Color there, and then Angelinos had other ideas.

Speaker 7 (10:14):
Tug of war now underway in downtown La Angelinos. Just
clean this up, ah Man, do it, over do it,
over do it again and again.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
And again and again.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
That's a tagger telling the city keep doing it, do
it over again and again again.

Speaker 4 (10:29):
Just clean it up.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Give us a new, you know, clean slate so we
can paint again. And we'll come in and do it
again again and again and again. That's what he said.
We're just gonna do it again and again and again,
and you can't do anything about it. Ah Man, do it,
over do it, over do it again and again and
again and again.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
The criminals run Los Angeles. You better get used to it.

Speaker 7 (10:51):
Painting over graffiti in the Second Street tunnel. But this
video of less than twenty four hours later shows dozens
of Angelinos back at it, spray painting again.

Speaker 4 (11:00):
He's done the same day, the same night.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
You just see a lot of people just came through it,
started doing their day.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
He said.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
They paint over it, and they come even that same night.
If they paint over it, I don't know, between two
and five pm. They'll come that night and paint and
tag it again.

Speaker 7 (11:16):
This Angelinos choosing to hide his identity for his work here.

Speaker 5 (11:19):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
You know, you get in trouble the i's I got
stress leader.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
At the same time, if the audio was you know,
jumbled there, he said, Yeah, it's a stress relief for us.
So that's why we do it. You know, we know
it's wrong, but it's a stress relief, so they need
to release their stress.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
So stop bothering the taggers.

Speaker 7 (11:40):
Quarter mile long tunnel blanketed by words, symbols and characters. Well,
empty spray cans now litter the curve. What do you
want to tell against this?

Speaker 1 (11:48):
I mean, I understand, you know, I understand they see
it as vandalism and whatnot, but mess A lot.

Speaker 8 (11:53):
Of Angelinos also see it as an artistic expression in
some cases.

Speaker 4 (11:59):
And we're likely here for hours.

Speaker 7 (12:02):
Just take a look at this one.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
Angelus tells us police did show up.

Speaker 7 (12:06):
Actually was there when the cops are rolling up and
they were like, yo, can you like not do that.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
The cops are now just sitting in their car, you know,
probably smoking a cigarette even though that's probably against a policy,
and just rolling the window down. Go hey, yo, guys,
please stop doing that.

Speaker 7 (12:24):
I actually was there when the cops are rolling up
and they were like, Yo, can.

Speaker 4 (12:28):
You like not do that? That's great. That's what we've
gotten to.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
That's where we are, where you know, the cops are
just said, screw it.

Speaker 4 (12:37):
You know, they're going to do what they're going to do,
and we can't do anything about it.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
And I don't know, I don't know what the solution is,
you know, I don't know how to solve it. It's
not getting better. It's now the taggers and the criminals
that run the valley, that run Los Angeles, and and
and you know what, I don't blame the cops at

(13:02):
all for not being overly attentive to the people who
live in Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Tarzana, and Sino Overland Hills.

Speaker 4 (13:13):
Now, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
Those people up who live in those hills are all.
That's where all the producers, the anchors, the reporters for
TV news two, four, five, seven, nine, eleven, they all
live in the hills, all of them.

Speaker 4 (13:31):
Almost everybody I.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Know in the news business lives in the hills of
the San Fernando Valley. And all the TV news does
is s all over the cops all day long, and
so why would I, as an LAPD officer, risk my
life to try to come and help you when all
you do is crap on us all day on the

(13:55):
TV news. And that's that's just not my perception. I've
asked all of my friends who are cops, Hey, what
about TV news. They're the worst. It's the absolute worst.
In Orange County. They support the cops, not in LA.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Not in LA.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
They hate them. They think the cops are Hitler, a
lot of Hitler references. And so these people live in
the hills against Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Casino, Tarzana, Woodland Hills.
They've all voted in the past for mayor baths. They
approve of LAPD being defunded. They crap all over them

(14:33):
in the news, either the newspapers or on TV news,
And so why should they rich their live coming out
to try to help you when all you've done, your
whole life has crapped on them.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
So I get it.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
If you're at LAPD or at the other sheriff's department
and you get a call in any of the hills
in the San Fernando Valley on the south part of
the Valley. I totally understand you finishing your meal, getting
in the car, obeying all the traffic lights, and getting
there twenty minutes thirty minutes later, taking a report and

(15:14):
not really giving aness about the people who live in
that area. Because the people who live in that area
of the valley, they hate the cops for the most part.
They vote against the cops. They approve of defunding the cops,
and the cops aren't coming anymore. That's what you get

(15:36):
until you vote another way, or until you, you know,
change the perception in TV, on the TV news and
in those areas.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
You're on your own. You're on your own.

Speaker 6 (15:48):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
The crisis in New York City is over. The gunman
was shot and then shot and killed them himself, So
that's a wrap on him. A pedestrian was shot and
a NYPD officer was shot as well.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
Was that Angel I was going to say, you know,
now that that has wrapped up, let's let's talk about
your career on Wall Street.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
Oh, I don't like doing that. You know it was
killin Yeah, it was hedge funds. And then I got
too crazy.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
You know.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
I was there at three in the morning till four
or five o'clock in the afternoon.

Speaker 4 (16:30):
Oh, and I just didn't. I didn't, you know, you
burn out quickly.

Speaker 3 (16:35):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
So I was there from twenty I lived and man
I was born in Manhattan. I lived there from I
think until it was about twenty seven or twenty eight,
and then I had like a just heart problems, you know,
worried all the time, and.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
So I quit and I got into radio. But I
appreciate the thought.

Speaker 3 (16:53):
You were born in Manhattan.

Speaker 9 (16:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:55):
I was born, born and raised in Manhattan right off
a Park Avenue.

Speaker 3 (17:00):
Oh wow, nice area.

Speaker 4 (17:01):
Yeah, beautiful area. Yeah, yeah it was. I'm very fortunate
as a kid I grew up in an area.

Speaker 5 (17:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
Then to get your sharing, yeah, I appreciate that. I
appreciate that.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Working for the big banks, you know, burned out on it,
burned out pretty easily, pretty quickly.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
All right.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
We have our crime back and Insino. The neighbors are
striking back. It happens every night in Encino. Somebody is
getting robbed every night.

Speaker 5 (17:26):
Four upset now than it was last night. I think
I was in shock last night.

Speaker 10 (17:30):
Take a look You can see two people rushing out
of this home off Canoga Avenue in Woodland Hills, one
of them seen carrying a large item, which the homeowner
says was her safe.

Speaker 5 (17:39):
It's probably seventy five pounds, you know, it's a good size, say.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
And these guys were doing it in the afternoon and
everybody's watching them. They have cameras on them, and nobody
care size.

Speaker 5 (17:50):
Say.

Speaker 10 (17:51):
The thieves load it into this black sedan and take off.
One neighbor captured it all from their tesla and followed
the suspects before they eventually crashed into a Prius.

Speaker 9 (18:00):
Made a U turn and apparently tried to maybe go
after the tesla, but he actually hit a white Prius,
bounced off the Prius. At that point, his driver's side
front wheel just folded and he literally took off full speed,
skidding with the tire.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
This it's an unreal It's a wild wild West and
Encino It's crazy.

Speaker 10 (18:20):
This latest burglery comes amid a series of break ins
across the valley.

Speaker 4 (18:24):
Take a look.

Speaker 10 (18:25):
This picture appears to show with three people in hoodies
attempting to break into a studio city home a couple
months ago. The homeowner says within the last two weeks
there have been two break ins, so now neighbors are
taking turns patrolling their community and Sino has also seen
multiple break ins over the last couple of weeks.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Yeah, I don't know how they all know who has
saves and who doesn't. That's got to be an inside job.
You know, where the location of the safe, Who has
the safe?

Speaker 4 (18:53):
Where is it? How do you get it and haul
it out of there?

Speaker 1 (18:57):
And I think what happens is when you buy a safe,
either somebody knows, somebody works at the place, or somebody
sees you by a safe, or maybe they see you
come into your home with a safe. And anybody who
has one of those big saves, you know, like seventy
five hundred pounds saves, you got a lot of stuff
to put in there, and they grab that and they

(19:18):
take off.

Speaker 10 (19:18):
Including at the home of a former American Idol producer
and her husband, who police say were killed by their intruder.

Speaker 9 (19:24):
I can't keep happening, and they have to be Consequences
have to be had.

Speaker 5 (19:29):
Love this neighborhood back over.

Speaker 10 (19:30):
In Woodland Hills, Sydney, feels grateful for all.

Speaker 4 (19:33):
Okay, let me go back to this guy here.

Speaker 9 (19:34):
Can't keep happening and they have to be you know, caught.
Consequences have to be had.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Okay, let's find out if that guy voted for all
the you know, the back off boogloo by the cops.
You know, maybe they were a fan of gascon go
easy on criminals, vote to you know, to defund LAPD
s all over the cops. If you're a news producer
or a news anchor, all of those add up to

(20:02):
the cops not really rushing into encinow to help you.

Speaker 5 (20:05):
Out of this neighborhood.

Speaker 10 (20:07):
Back over in Woodland Hills, Sydney feels grateful for all
of her neighbors that stepped in, especially the one that
followed the suspects. Thanks to them, police were able to
recover her safe, which the thieves left behind after crashing
their car and bailing on foot, and in it are
some of her most treasured items.

Speaker 5 (20:23):
My mother's old jewelry, you know, things like that, things
that are not replaceable, you know, from my engagement ring
and that kind of stuff.

Speaker 10 (20:31):
Yeah, and Sidney tells us she hopes to get the
safe back in.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
Her hands today.

Speaker 10 (20:35):
As far as the investigation goes, LAPD is looking for
two people believed.

Speaker 1 (20:39):
To be between Okay, this is this drives me crazy,
all right. So we all saw the woman who was robbed,
right we all saw it on video on the news
where the two guys left her house with the safe
in the Mercedes Benz and took off. Everybody's all that

(21:00):
on the news. Now tonight, she's getting her safe back,
and we all, including myself, know where she lives.

Speaker 4 (21:11):
What is she going to do?

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Put the safe back in the house and hope that
the hundreds of thousands of people who saw her and
saw her front door and know where she lives. You're
gonna keep You're gonna be at home and you're gonna
feel like you're okay tonight or for the next week
or next month.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
You know.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
LAPD Actually police officers will tell you this. If you've
been robbed, the chance of you getting robbed again in
the next month are about fifty to fifty because they've
come in, they've robbed you, they saw a lot of
stuff that they weren't able to take the first time,
and they're coming back for a second scoop. They're going

(21:53):
to come back and scoop up all the stuff that
they didn't get the first time. And LAPD will also
tell you that almost forty percent of the houses that
are robbed in the United States, a guy goes through
a door that's unlocked. People don't still don't lock their
doors and windows at night. It's remarkable, with all this

(22:16):
crime going on, there are still people leave their doors unlocked.
There's still people out there without alarm systems, without cameras.
I don't know where you're living. I don't know what
century you think you're in, but this has become the wild,
wild West in Los Angeles. LAPD does not have the
manpower to watch every house in the hills, and you're

(22:39):
on your own. You got to get a gun. You
got to get a dog. You got to get an
alarm system. You got to get protective windows, a gate,
a wall, barbed wire. You've got to build yourself a fort.
If you have any kind of dough, if you've made
any kind of money, you've got to protect yourself.

Speaker 4 (22:58):
Don't rely on outside help. It ain't coming.

Speaker 10 (23:01):
And Sydney tells us she hopes to get the safe
back in her hands today as far as the investigation goes, Alli, okay, and.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
We all know where she lives and she's getting her
safe back. What does that tell you they're coming back.

Speaker 10 (23:13):
PD is looking for two people believed to be between
eighteen and twenty five years old. Police also have told
us that they have increased patrols, both in the air
and on the ground in these areas that have seen all.

Speaker 3 (23:23):
These break ins.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yeah, I wouldn't rely on that. You've got to protect
your own stuff and your own your own house, and
you might be against guns, I get that. Put that
belief to rest for a while. Ignore that caution that
you've had your whole life. Go out, get a gun,

(23:45):
get trained, and use that to protect your house. That's
going to be your best resort to try when somebody
breaks your house. You got you know, you got a
choice to make. You're gonna let them take everything? Are
you gonna let them kill you? Or are you going
to attack them? And you got to be on the attack.
You got to attack them. This is the crazy how

(24:08):
much crime is happening in the San Fernando Valley.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
It's unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
You know, you don't hear a lot about it in
Burbank or Glendale because there's smaller police forces in Burbank
and Glendale. They're very proactive when somebody gets robbed in
one of these smaller towns because they have their own
police force. They got to be reactive to the uh,
you know, to the citizens, and they are. Burbank is

(24:34):
I feel one of the safest cities I've ever lived in.

Speaker 4 (24:37):
The cops are all over the place. They're everywhere.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Every time I go out, you know, to a store
or to get to a restaurant, whatever, I see three
or four cops on the way, and I see them
on the way home there. I don't know how they
do this, but they're everywhere everywhere in Burbank. So if
I were you, I wouldn't mess around in Burbank. Those
cops stepped you quick.

Speaker 4 (25:00):
Real quick.

Speaker 6 (25:01):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
That's our crime wrap for the day. So what I'm
telling you you got to be proactive. You got to
be careful. There's a lot of people out there who
want your stuff. A lot of people out there who
decide not to work. They decide you worked enough and
they want your stuff. So got to get out there
and protect yourself. Grocery surge pricings I don't know what

(25:31):
the hell that is, but it sounds like more money
is going to be coming out of our wallets and
into the grocery business. Let's find out what's going on.

Speaker 8 (25:41):
Speaking of prices, this is interesting and this involves dynamic
pricing aka surge pricing. I don't think of the ride
share companies or the concert promoters who raise prices as
demand goes up for popular rides or popular concerts, things
like that. We're talking about that dynamic pricing. Would you
ever see that in the souper? Well, it turns out

(26:01):
if you go over to Norway or the Netherlands. Okay,
but we're not there. It's already there. And here's how
this works. You see those electronic labels on store shelves, Well,
that's more common in Europe right now. But according to
the Wall Street Journal, these prices can change as much
as one hundred times during the days to as the

(26:23):
retail process goes on. Now, at best, dynamic pricing means
that prices will go down as the store's competitors lower
their prices to be more competitives.

Speaker 1 (26:33):
Oh oh, that's good news, right, But at worst, oh,
here we go.

Speaker 4 (26:37):
But at worst.

Speaker 8 (26:39):
They go up when your competitor is raising prices as well.
The problem is, when that happens dozens of times a day,
it's virtually impossible for a consumer to know what's going on.
And now you're thinking, oh, well, that could never be
here in the United States, Oh contrare.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
I'm here to tell you.

Speaker 8 (26:55):
Already a number of major retailers, including Walmart, Whole Foods
and Route's Parents and Kroger, have brought out electronic labels
to their supermarket shelves. That's already out there, and in
response to concerns from lawmakers, well, Kroger, for one, says,
we would never do dynamic pricing. Those electronic labels are
just simply to make things more convenient for our store workers.

(27:16):
But retail industry insiders say, no, that's not the case.
It's just a matter of time.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
You know, Walmart has them. Now.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
If you go to Walmart, they can change the prices
because all of their prices and all their products they're
all digital, and they could change that in a heartbeat.

Speaker 8 (27:33):
Before dynamic pricing is rolled out to supermarkets. And therefore
you would see perhaps the price of milk going up
and down throughout the day and for shoppers. That means
you're basically trying to time the market. Okay, all right,
so it looks like prices are going to go off, you.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
Know, over the weekend. I was up in Ventura on SAT. Today,
and then I was driving home at around midnight, and
I wanted to stop and get a pizza on the
way home, so I went.

Speaker 4 (28:02):
I pulled over.

Speaker 1 (28:04):
Sort of and I looked up to see when Pizza
Hut was closing and said one am. I said, okay,
I'll go to pizza. So I call them up. They're closed.
Who's midnight? They're closed? So ill I see Dominoes is
open until one am?

Speaker 4 (28:21):
All right?

Speaker 1 (28:22):
So I called Dominoes at twelve fifteen closed. I don't
know what the hell is happening in the valley, but
there's nobody open past midnight. There's one pizza place in
Van Eyes that's open till three am, and that's it.
There is an entire group of people like myself who

(28:43):
are up late at night, who want food late at night,
and the only thing that really is open are you
know the fast food places that you drive through, Jack
in the Box, McDonald's, Del Taco, Taco Bell, you know
the usuals but there's no pizza place at least that
I can find. It has great pizza that's open late

(29:07):
at night. Joe's is my favorite pizza in the world.
I've done a lot of research, and in the San
Fernando Valley, even in the city of La you cannot
beat Joe's Pizza. They're not an advertiser, but I'm plugging
away anyway, the pizza sensational. I go to the one

(29:28):
in Sherman Oaks. So I leave Burbank and I drive
sometimes twenty twenty five minutes to get to the one
on Ventura Boulevard, just a little bit east of Sepulvida
Joe's Pizza. I know there's a Joe's in Studio City,
but I also know the guy who cooks pizza, who

(29:49):
is the ultimate pizza maker and ultimate chef.

Speaker 4 (29:52):
He is in Sherman Oaks, He's not in Studio City.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
So I drive six seven miles past the one in
Studio City to get to the one in Sherman Oaks
because he makes the perfect best pizza in La by far.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
That's Joe's, right, That's Joe's and Joe's.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
I went last night, left the house at you know
nine thirty, ten o'clock at night, and I know they
closed at eleven, So I get their ten thirty. I say, hey,
can I get a pizza? He goes, ah, we already
shut the oven off, like, ah, yes, well then you
don't close at eleven, you close at ten. And so
they said, well, they just made one for slices, they said,
and they sold me that one, which was very nice

(30:33):
to them. But if Joe's listening, I think there's a
Joe in Joe's pizza. Buddy, you got to stay open later.
You have no idea how great your pizza is and
how many people want.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
It late at night.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
How many nights can they count on you if they
decide to stay open.

Speaker 4 (30:50):
I'm there once a week, at least at least once
a week.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Got late yoh yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm I'm
up up you know a.

Speaker 4 (30:59):
Late night out? You know up?

Speaker 1 (31:04):
Is any late pizza in Irvine or you're not You're
You're not up that late though, you know, like eight.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
No, I don't. I do have a little pizza story.
So we ordered pizza. You know how you order it
and then Surrey on the phone, yeah, and then you
know it, you order it and then you go pick
it up, and you go and and by the time
you go and.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
Pick it up, it's ready to go.

Speaker 2 (31:27):
Like it's just the perfect scenario, right, Sure, so order it.
And they said can you were a little business like,
can you hang on a second?

Speaker 3 (31:35):
Sure?

Speaker 7 (31:35):
For sure?

Speaker 3 (31:35):
And they set the phone down. They never went back to.

Speaker 2 (31:40):
And so we just decided to get in, you know,
and we hung up and we kept calling, and the
phone was still.

Speaker 4 (31:45):
Off the hook.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Still off the hook. Get there and go in there.
And I told them, I go, your phone's off the hook.

Speaker 4 (31:52):
That's great.

Speaker 3 (31:53):
I'm sorry about that.

Speaker 4 (31:54):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
And it was because of you. They kept the phone
off the hook. It was your call.

Speaker 8 (31:59):
Yep.

Speaker 4 (32:00):
Oh that's horrible.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
And I had to tell them that their phone was
off the hook.

Speaker 4 (32:03):
That's the worst.

Speaker 5 (32:04):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (32:04):
Then Pizza places.

Speaker 3 (32:06):
It is the most delicious.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
And let me get the name correct here do minosmos?

Speaker 3 (32:15):
No, it is called hold On, Hold On. It is
so delicious.

Speaker 2 (32:22):
All a bunch of police officers were in there eating,
so the police love it too.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
It's in Tustine and it's Tara Mia pizza.

Speaker 4 (32:28):
Oh that sounds good.

Speaker 3 (32:29):
It is delicious.

Speaker 4 (32:31):
Tara Mia good stuff, Terara Miya it's.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Just some Tara Mia pizza.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
I had a buddy, you know, David Mosekin, Right, Yeah,
So he's in Hawaii's in Maui before the whole thing
collapse and burned down, and he calls me and he goes, hey,
what's going on, goes are you familiar with Lehaina? It said, wow,
I've been there a couple of times in my life.
He said, are there any good pizza or Italian restaurants

(32:59):
out here? Because me and I've been searching all over
for good Italian food and there's nothing.

Speaker 4 (33:03):
And I said, well, let me look it up real quick.
I'll call you back.

Speaker 1 (33:06):
And I called him back, a buddy, I found a
five star restaurant in Lehina that serves Italian food.

Speaker 4 (33:13):
He goes, oh, that's the best. Where is it?

Speaker 1 (33:15):
And I said they're open late too. I think they're
opening on nine ten o'clock. He goes, oh, that's great.
Where is it? And I and I gave him the address.
He goes, oh, that's like two blocks from me. I'll
just walk there. When I'm on the phone with you,
I said. He said, what's the name of it. I said,
it's called De Meanas. The meanas dominas sa, daminosa. I
believe dmi nasa domina sa, domina sa. It's Italian. It

(33:38):
means great sausage, dominos sa. And he walks and he walks,
and he turns a corner. He goes, f you, he goes,
that's dominoes. I'm like, God, sorry, yeah, I'm mispronounced that.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
But Joe's is the greatest. If you're listening right now
and you're familiar with the San Fernando Valley, you know Joe's.

Speaker 4 (34:00):
Pizza and you know it's terrific. It is.

crust is unbelievable. And I get a whole pizza in
