Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's k IF I am sixty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We've
got a SpaceX rocket gonna blast off in forty minutes.
So get somewhere where you can see it. Pull over,
check that out. Maybe you can see it if they're
not up, you know, if there's no cloud cover or
(00:21):
fog or a marine layer.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
So go check it out.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
You'll you'll you'll like it. I think you'll enjoy it.
All right, let's talk Brown one D talk about this
one here. You know the Boston accent, you know, a
very distinctive Boston accent. It's disappearing, it's going away, and
two or three generations we may never hear it again.
(00:48):
It's such a great accent. It's like an Irish like.
You know, Jim McDonald has a little of it that Boston,
you know, Chief McDonald for LAPD, he's got a little
that Boston.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Oh yeah, yeah, it sticks out a little bit here there,
you hear it.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Got to get their cad more money for the cops
out here. We need to be smart right now.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Smart when it comes to regional accents. Perhaps nothing is
bigger than Boston's. You must be the other guy with
that famously missing R showing up on the big screen.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Ah you or I you not.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
A knack. I'm featured in Super Bowl commercials. Look who's
got smart pack?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
So researchers have found in recent years that melodic speech
pattern native to New England is fading.
Speaker 5 (01:36):
We got a problem repurce the ship to a han online.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
There's an apparent generational dialect divide. The more neutral pronunciation
is something Catherine Loftus has noticed with her own kids.
It's not as though it like has faded a little
bit and they completely pronounced their ours. It's just the
latest accent to see a decline, with multiple studies finding
the Southern twang like Piperno, the Texas.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Draw, Coretta right.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
Right, and even the beloved Brooklynese are all slowly changing.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
I'm walking here, walking.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Here, and Americans are hearing the difference.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
It feels like now there's a unified way of how
we as Americans speak. Yeah, but it's being replaced by
that California draw. I got to the four five on
to the one one that's going to replace it, The
car lazy Southern Californian tang.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
The cause some experts say has to do with changing demographics.
In the case of the Southern accent researchers suggests people
who grew up in Georgia in the sixties interacted with
mostly Georgia born speakers, giving them more regional inflections, compared
to later generations, who were more likely to grow up
in more diverse communities. Back in the Hub, Bostonians are
(02:54):
speaking out.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
Do you feel like the Boston accent is becoming extinct?
It just breaks my high That's perfect, it just breaks
my hot.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
Some are still loudly leaning into the native.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Tones in Massachusetts, even other pots in New England.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
We have our own language. They say remote.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
We say clicka. I say clicker. I asked my wife
a couple weeks ago, Hey, where's the clicker?
Speaker 7 (03:28):
I call it the clickers.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Yeah, you're why because it used to click. You know,
there used to be two metal bars inside and a
hammer would hit one of the bars and it would
change the station and would and would literally click. Now
it's all you know, you know, computers, We say clicka clicka,
I say clicka.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
Even Hollywood stars Matt Demon and Ben Affleck probably proclaimed
their Boston roots last week on The Tonight show.
Speaker 5 (03:52):
Agrimont, Irving, Essex, Everett, faven.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Foun Fitchburg.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I hope it doesn't go away. That's a that's a
great accent. Here's something if you are you may not
have ever heard about this before in your life. It's
called house burping. It's when you open all the windows
and you and you get rid of the old air
and bring new air into the house. And a lot
of times you can do with a whole house fan.
It's probably something crozier heads. You have a whole house
(04:20):
fan in your in your house? Do you have a
whole house fan? I do you do? I do is
in the attic?
Speaker 2 (04:28):
No?
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Well, I mean the fan itself is in the attic. Yeah,
but the opening to it is in the one of
the one of the bedrooms.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Oh, I see. And so you open all the windows,
turn it on and it brings in all new air. Yes,
that's great. Yeah, I really would love to.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
As Jim would always get paranoid because it's like if
you turn it on, she's like afraid that if you
don't open the windows or doors or something, it's going
to suck the windows into the house. Incredible implosion.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Yeah, I'm with her. The fans. I'm with her. Totally possible.
It could be like a Charlie and the chocolate factory thing,
you know, where you have to too, you're gonna shoot
up by the fan, right, But how's burping is a
thing in Europe and now it's coming to America.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Well, Frigid temperatures have millions avoiding the outdoors these days,
some folks are welcoming the cold into their homes.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Just get some fresh air in there, you'll thank you big.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
It's part of a growing trend inspired by the age
old German practice known as luften, meaning to air out
by briefly opening the windows and letting the fresh air in.
In the US, it's picking up steam under a quirky
equip How spurping?
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Oh Christ, why why do we always have to dumb
things down? You know, and call it the most like
disgusting version of what it is. Yeah, we're putting new
air in the house. What Americans call it house farting?
Speaker 2 (05:51):
God almighty, hou spurping.
Speaker 8 (05:53):
This is a reminder that even though it's freezing, you
need to burp your house.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
But burp your house. Oh you imagine that. You know
you're going out with somebody and they're like, oh, we'll
be about ten minutes later we're house burping. Okay, well
I'm going to pass on you.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
But no matter the name, indoor air quality pro Tonia
Body says it has real benefits, including preventing mold contaminants
and carbon dioxide build up.
Speaker 9 (06:16):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
It's a true story. Got to get a whole house fan.
Speaker 9 (06:20):
When you bring in some more air from the outside,
you to loot those concentrations and you reduce them.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
What he says is especially important for Americans, who spend
about ninety percent of their time indoors according to the EPA.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Is that right? Americans spend ninety percent of their life indoors? Wow,
I guess that's right. You know, if you're if you
live in Chicago, and you may spend a minute outdoors
every day in the winter, maybe even less. You know,
you get in your car, that's in your garage, You
drive to work, that's in a garage. You eat in
(06:54):
the building, maybe there's a restaurant or a cafe in
the building. Then you drive your car home. It's in
the garage. You may never go outside in Chicago.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
As it's that high, I mean ten percent. Is that's
two and a half hours a day. Who's who's staying
two and a half hours a day outside just to
get the average that high?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Right, But like even in California, we don't spend that
much time outside and it's beautiful out here. I think
that's wrong. Look at us right now. I think it's
like ninety five percent. I'm trying to get to one
hundred percent. You like your yard gage. I don't want
to go out there as.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Paint in your grass too much?
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Injured?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
I did. I painted a couple of years ago during
the drought when they said don't water your lawn. I
got grass paint and I painted the lawn. It was
actual grass paint. Yeah, it was called Yeah. I bought
it on Amazon and it was a it was a
natural paint so it doesn't kill your grass. And it
looked horrible. Is it a roller no spray? Yeah, spray
painted the lawn. Yeah. The neighbors are all just like,
(07:48):
what's going on with this guy?
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Like, like did it like stand out in the entire neighborhood.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
It was great and Jane Wells did a story on
it for CNBC. Look at this guy's painting his lawn
and you buy it in a bottle. Then you reduce
it by the constant it's concentrated. Okay, so it's like
three it's like a cup makes ten gallons. And you
just buy one of those sprayers like you would spray
weed killer, and you just color the loan. It worked
(08:14):
out pretty good. The problem is that I got it
on the house and that's still on the house. Oh,
still spots on the house, and it's on the sidewalk
because it stains, you know.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
So it's like a biodegradable paint.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
They say it is, but it's not. It's not degrading.
It's still it's still there.
Speaker 4 (08:34):
In Germany, the Washington Post reports many apartment leases contain
a Looften clause requiring tenants to open their windows multiple
times a day. Raised by German parents in New York,
Lucy Raschnebel has been doing this her whole life.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Yeah, it's a great idea. Get yourself a whole house
fan or more you bring fresh air into the house,
the better you feel. I subscribe to that. We are
thirty minus. It's away thirty minutes away from the big
blast off in Vandenberg, and you'll be able to see
it if you look west northwest. You'll be able to
see that unless the cloud cover is wiping you out.
(09:12):
In that case, you will not see it. But it's
going off in thirty one minutes and thirty seven seconds
from right now. So get somewhere we can check it out.
It's it's all, it's just unbelievable to see live. Unblieve.
Speaker 10 (09:24):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Maya from
KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Well, they've delayed the spaceship. Something happened. I don't know what,
but they've delayed it. It was gonna be six forty
five and now they've put it off. It's gonna happen
one hour and forty six minutes from now.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Cloud cover a tech issue, you think, No.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I don't know. Let me find out what an hour.
I don't want to tell everybody. Hold on one second,
let me ask my phone with out saying the name
where everybody's phone flips out, because if I say the
name of the app that I'm gonna use, then people's
phone will will find that information for them as well.
(10:12):
I think won't, won't it?
Speaker 3 (10:14):
It's never happened to me.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
But not if it's Apple. Oh really, no, okay, then
I'll do it. Siri. What is one hour and forty
five minutes from now? Eight oh eight, eight oh eight pm?
Oh you're everyone's phone? Did it great? Comes to the
hate letters? Eight eight eight oh eight pm. That's a
(10:37):
that's a good omen. Eight oh eight eight is a
very lucky number, I think in the Asian community, Is
that right? China, Japan, Korea? I think the eight is
a very lucky number. I've heard that. Maybe I'm wrong,
Maybe it's eighteen or twenty.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Eight, especially in numerology in Chinese culture, Yes, China, weight
is often considered lucky.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Okay, all right, that's cool.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
See it is a divine message for abundance, success, manifestation,
encouraging positive thoughts in action. So ai, by the way.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
So eight O waight, it's a good omen. Then it's
a good number. There's two weights in it. The maximum
amount of eights you can have it at a time,
max maxed out. All right, if you want to go
on the cruise. We're going on a cruise in July.
I'm going to Alaska with one hundred and sixty listeners
and me one hundred and sixty people. It's going to
(11:35):
be fantastic. I've met a couple over the weekend. They're
going and uh, they seem very pleasant. So if you
want to go on the cruise, we're leaving in July,
if you want all the information, we're going to from
Seattle to Alaska, then Canada and back to Seattle. We'll
stop at Ketcha, can Sitka, Victoria and then who nah
(12:01):
h oo nah who Nanna? Who Nana? Who Nana? Who Nana?
Who Nana? Isn't that that song anyway? So we're leaving
July twenty first from Seattle. So here's the information. Go
to the website. Book your cabin while they still have
some left. And we're going on a cruise. It might
(12:22):
be the last cruise I ever take. See we'll see
how it goes. But go to Conwaycruise dot com Conway
Cruise dot com and I'll see you on the cruise ship.
And don't miss the boat show. That is I don't know,
that doesn't make sense here, but anyway, go on the cruise.
(12:43):
I'll go on the cruise. We'll drink, we'll smoke, we'll gamble,
we might fight, we'll throw things at you know, overboard.
You know, we'll do all kinds of crazy stuff, but
it'll be a lot of fun. So even if you've
never been on a cruise, come on one hundred and
sixty listeners. You'll have something in common with somebody there.
We'll eat, we'll drink, we'll get hungover, we'll gamble on
(13:06):
the casino, will fight. I don't know why I keep
saying we'll fight, but I think there's be fighting on board.
But it should be a lot of fun. So let's go.
Let's go to that cruise. Conwaycruise dot com. Conwaycruise dot com.
All right, a massive, massive polar plunge and snowstorm across
(13:27):
the United States. If you have relatives that are in
the wake of this storm, you have got to call them,
especially if it's Grandma Grandpa. They might need your help.
Speaker 11 (13:36):
This is huge, a brutal winter wallop not letting up.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
You definitely need layers when you come outside.
Speaker 11 (13:43):
Parts of western New York buried in more than two
feet of lake effects snow. The road's so treacherous. Near Buffalo,
some drivers like Joe Shanelli, forced to spend Monday night
at a rest stop after getting snowed in.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
You're just watching snow come down. Everyone was taking it
pretty well.
Speaker 11 (13:59):
In the middles firefighters battle the Major Blazon sub zero tempts.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
Oh that's the worst putting water on a fire when
they in the water freezes after it hits the fire
on a huge mess.
Speaker 11 (14:11):
Despite the harsh conditions, they managed to rescue two adults
and a child. Meanwhile, large chunks of ice blocked a
water intake pipe at a treatment plan in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Oh, that means backed up duties.
Speaker 11 (14:23):
Affecting water pressure in the city. Emergency crews used a
barge in a tugboat to clear the Allegheny River. And
at Chicago's Ohare Airport, we're not services control tower workers
forced to evacuate after a pipe burst in the bitter cold.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Oh my god, what a mess in Chicago. And they
just lost to the rams, so they're pissed anyway, and
now they're freezing their asses off, freezing.
Speaker 11 (14:50):
Leading to a temporary groundstop. Hospitals nationwide also feeling the freeze.
In Michigan, health official say emergency room visits for cold
related illness fifty this week.
Speaker 1 (15:02):
Wow, that's a lot. All right, here's what it's gonna
be like in Chicago. Extreme cold. Maybe you're from Chicago,
you got relatives there on Friday. So what is that
the day after tomorrow? The high temperature two two degrees,
the low minus thirteen, minus thirteen. That is dangerous weather.
(15:24):
It's gonna feel like minus twenty six and that could
kill you. That absolutely can kill you. If there's a
power outage and you don't have you know, gas, you're
relying on electric heaters. That could kill you. And this
is a very dangerous storm. It's almost as dangerous as
(15:44):
a hurricane because there's gonna be power outages and they're
gonna keep people freezing to death, especially homeless people freezing
to death. That's why there's so many homeless people in
Los Angeles. You can't survived in the Midwest in the
winter when it's minus thirteen degrees. How can you survive that?
(16:06):
You can't. So what do you do? You come out
here and enjoy yourself and we enjoy you too. Thanks
for coming out all right, Relyve on KFI AM six forty.
The launch at Vanderberg has been put off. The new
time is schedule at eighth eight pm, two night.
Speaker 10 (16:22):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
This is a new trend that I hope does not continue.
But I saw this online and I thought, all right,
this is not what we should be doing as a society.
But people are leaving their dogs in bags on the
ground in the woods. What is going on with this?
Speaker 2 (16:53):
There are an estimated ninety million dogs in America.
Speaker 5 (16:56):
They all eat, sleep, and poop, and it's how that
last thing is handled that is the source of aggravation
for some pet.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Owners and nature lovers.
Speaker 5 (17:04):
In tonight's Question Everything, Susan in Situate asks why do
people put their dogs poop in a plastic bag just
to throw it in the woods.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
To stand alone?
Speaker 5 (17:13):
A wash in the beauty of this situate seascape is
meditation for the mind and for the body. A nearby
sign offers free yoga, but read on it says, bend over,
pick up your pet, waiste call it downward dog, And
about one hundred feet away, a poop bag sits on
the beach.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
It's a problem.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Heretick, Well, who's doing this? Who's picking up after their
dog and then throwing the bag? I see it all
really fine? Is that right?
Speaker 7 (17:43):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
You see the bags?
Speaker 7 (17:45):
Yes, w tied in everything, but thrown like on the
ground or like near the dumpster.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
Is that right?
Speaker 7 (17:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Okay, well that's Irvine for you, you know.
Speaker 7 (17:54):
No, it was uh, it wasn't.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
It was Colorado.
Speaker 7 (18:00):
No, I'm not gonna name them this.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Okay, it was Irvine.
Speaker 7 (18:04):
Then, no, it wasn't Rvine.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
It was definitely Irvine.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
And a problem in Susan Lapone, Stonis's situate neighborhood.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
That sounds like somebody Bellio you had been friends with
in your childhood. Susan Popone. Hey, the papons are Yeah.
Speaker 7 (18:20):
We lived up the street from the popone.
Speaker 5 (18:21):
Theon and the problem in Susan Lapone. Susan Lapone, Susan Lapone,
Stonis's situate neighborhood.
Speaker 8 (18:29):
So when you're walking along and you're just feeling such
joy of nature and beauty, and you look into the
woods and you see a bunch of poof bags, it's just, oh,
it's so aggravating.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Do you see what poof bags? Ah? Pos poof bags?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
It's just oh, it's so aggravating. I think there's one
right there.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I can't stand picking up dog ass. My wife takes
the dog and walks it because I just it grosses
me out, you know, I mean, I think dogs are
smart or smarter than we are. They're going to the
bathroom and we pick it up, We pick it up.
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
Oh yeah, Susan and Pebbles.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
You know when I was growing up and you walked
into a pet store and you said to the pet
store owner or the pet store employee, hey, can I
get some poop bags? They would say, what's a poop bag?
It didn't exist when I was a kid. When you
took a dog for a walk and it took a dump,
(19:31):
that dumb staid where that dog left it, period, and
it would get you know, it would get old and
wash away in the next rain, or get you know,
crusty and blow away in the wind. But we never
ever picked up dog waste when I was a kid.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
Never.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
And if you're by age, you're clothes, you remember that
there was never any such thing as a poop bag. Ever.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
Pebbles her puppies showed me all the bags in the
bushes near her home.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
I think you're gonna have to go in.
Speaker 8 (20:00):
And take finger. Persons they take their bag out of
their leash and put it in their very mindfully put
it in, and then what goes through their mind when
they check it into the wood.
Speaker 5 (20:10):
Instead of making a stink, the retired school teacher made
a sign which said.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Take your poop bags home. There is no poop fairy.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
That sign disciplate. That's a sign that this woman made.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Take your poop bags home. There is no poop.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Fairry, take your poop bags home. There's no poop fairy.
What happened?
Speaker 7 (20:29):
I'm with you, Susan Lapone.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Yeah, you're with the lapole Ton.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Take your poop bags home. There is no poop fairy.
Speaker 5 (20:36):
That sign disappeared, so she made a second sign, and
that didn't work either.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
I bet there is a poop fairy, though, I bet
there is.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
Did you ever think that you are going to be
a person who made signs at all?
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Pooh?
Speaker 8 (20:49):
No, no, My family thinks I'm not what an easy laugh?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
This woman is great in a comedy club.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Poo. My family thinks I'm nuts.
Speaker 5 (21:02):
You're the poop signed woman.
Speaker 8 (21:03):
And I saw you, But you're the poop poop bag
guy too.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
I saw your post, and.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
Yeah, he's flirting with the poop woman.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Maybe she's the poop fairy.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Yeah, and maybe they're like they're gonna they're gonna eventually
date these two. They seemn't be hitting it off and
all chemistry. Yeah, it's all because of dog ass.
Speaker 5 (21:21):
Yes, I recently posted about the trails where I walk
my dog. So I'm out for a walk with my
dog and I just saw the nastiest thing who bags
up their dog's poop.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
I'm with this guy, I'm with this guy.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Dog, and I just saw the nastiest thing.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
Think, ah, let's try this one here. You know Angel
loves these things. I do it for Angel Martinez. Yeah,
bang this one out here my dog.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
So I'm out for a walk with my dog and
I just saw the nastiest who bags up?
Speaker 1 (21:54):
That was pretty good. I gotta fix it.
Speaker 5 (21:57):
So I'm for a walk with my dog and I
just saw the nastiest who bags up? Yeah, So I'm
out for a walk with my dog and I just
saw the nastiest who bags up their dogs poop just
to throw it all in the woods. I'm gonna go
out on a limb and say, this tree top travesty
is the worst one ever. Some people use biodegradable bags
(22:18):
and think just toss them, they'll be gone soon enough.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Who gives a poop?
Speaker 5 (22:23):
Well, actually, even biodegradable bags need the perfect conditions to
break down quickly. They need heat, moisture, oxygen, microbes, and
in the woods could take up to ten years for
them to disappear.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
Wow, I didn't know that. Hey about Bellio and Angel.
You guys probably go to the supermarket. Are you familiar
with these new read not you these new biodegradable bags
when you get vegetables. They're sort of green.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
Yeah, and I like them.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Are They're impossible to open and they rip if you
look at them. They're the worst.
Speaker 7 (22:57):
I like the feel of them there.
Speaker 12 (22:59):
Yeah, they feel like I'm swayed. Oh yeah, they're really velvety, Yes, exactly,
but they are horrible. They they hold nothing and the
slightest little ripping them and they're gone, and they're impossible
to open. You spend twenty minutes trying to open one
of these stupid things. Lick your fingers.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
Yeah, in the market, I don't know. You hate that,
but belly, you're onto something. You don't lick your fingers,
but you touch the vegetables that have water on them,
so your fingers are moist than a easier open. So
you touch the lettuce or the cucumbers, whever I could
do with that hat. You do that angel, Yeah, but
I wouldn't lick your fingers in the market. I would
(23:41):
stay with him that.
Speaker 10 (23:43):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Oh. Yes, the Oscar nominations come out tomorrow. For all
you Hollywood people out there. It's a very big but
early early morning. I think it starts at I don't know,
five o'clock in the morning, and it sucks because show
business doesn't start till ten a m. And nobody in
show business is up at five in the morning or
six in the morning. So we'll have the nominations tomorrow.
(24:12):
I hope that my very dear friend Paul Thomas Anderson
gets at least two three four Best Actor, Best Writer,
Best Movie, who knows, who Knows? Maybe cleans up. And
also the rocket that they were supposed to launch at
six forty five was delayed and now the scheduled time
(24:33):
is eighth eight pm, So if you look west from
most of the LA area, you might be able to
see it if there's a clearing in the fog or
in the cloud cover. And it's always spectacular to see that,
to watch a rocket blast off and go into space,
and always reminds me that in school there were kids
that read more than I did, and stayed in school
(24:55):
longer than I did, and really paid attention. And those
are the kids that put that rocket together. And I'm
looking at it from my porch in Burbank, thinking I
probably should have stayed in school longer, because then I
could have been involved with that. But doing radio. Lou
Penrose is coming up next, and I want to have
them on because I don't know much about Lou Penrose,
(25:17):
but I love the show. Lou Are you here?
Speaker 5 (25:20):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Thanks? I appreciate that, Lou.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
I was.
Speaker 9 (25:22):
By the way, You're right about the rocket. The kids
at the computer lab. Remember the kids that went out
to the computer lab. You thought, why would I want
to take time out of this class to go to
another class.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
I'm already hearing class, right, But they had that pass.
They go to the computer lab, and now look at them.
Now they're launching rockets and we're on the radio exactly.
And I love the fact that they did stay longer
than I did, and they wanted to learn, because without them,
we'd be relying on Russia or China to do that,
and now we have. But I listened, I was driving
(25:53):
to Palm Springs on Friday, and I was listening to
you all the way down. I listened to all three hours.
It was a great show. And one of the things
that really stuck out is you gave a piece of
information to homeowners that nobody else gives except maybe me privately.
I don't do it on the radio, but I love
the fact that you did it on the radio. And
(26:14):
you're talking about the increase in women purchasing homes, and
you told everybody everybody listening, if you're a woman or
a man who owns a house, do not ever let
the significant other pay a bill or do any major
repairs on the house. And I thought that was probably
the most valuable information I've heard on radio in years, right, well,
(26:39):
especially for women.
Speaker 9 (26:40):
Exactly twenty percent of all closings now are single women, right,
And I know what the girls are gonna do. They're
gonna move the boyfriend in. I advise you not to
do that, but I'm not going to win that argument.
But if you go this route, do not let him
forward mail to your house, and do not let him
pay a utility bill.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Right because if the relationship goes south, he can have
DIBs on that house in California. Yes. And I know
this from talking to my nieces.
Speaker 9 (27:10):
And other women that I know that are single and
friends of my wife, and you know, they're like, oh, Lou,
but it's the way you know, we live together.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
It's great.
Speaker 9 (27:18):
He'd you know, i'd get the groceries sometimes and then
he pays the light bill and blah blah blah. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
not the electric bill, not the utility bill. If he
wants to hand you cash, take the cash, but do
not let him write a personal check to the to
southern California gas.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
No, not at all, especially in Los Angeles where the
courts to decide the you know, the fights between landlord
and tenant uh fall on the tenant side one hundred
percent of the time.
Speaker 9 (27:47):
And he's a tenant.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
If you gave him a key, that's right, I know
you're gonna do. Or if he pays a bill, he
has DIBs on that house as well.
Speaker 9 (27:54):
Right, I'm gonna tell you, you're gonna tell your dad
how handy he is, because you know, he put on
an extension or he put a pergola over the over
the back porch, and I'm like No.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
That's a capital improvement. If he wants to change a
light bulb, maybe, but that is really great information because
you know, this is not the Midwest. This is California
where people are crazy and people will you know, if
the relationship does break up, the guy will present proof
that he paid the water bill for a year or so,
and then he has an argument to either get reimbursed
(28:25):
or when the house sells, he gets part of it.
Speaker 9 (28:28):
Right, if he lives there for five years, he has
five years equity in your house, and he's gonna take
the five years' equity.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
He's gonna find he's gonna figure out. Let's say you
own the house from the year twenty twenty to twenty
twenty five, and he was paying part of the bills. Well,
in the house that increased in value, they're gonna he's
gonna take that part of it and then divide that
by whatever he paid, and you could owe him a
couple hundred thousand dollars that's right, Yeah, not part of
the bills. One one can run check exactly one cancel check.
Speaker 9 (28:56):
Right.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
But that but a lot of people I've never heard
that on radio until you talk to it.
Speaker 9 (29:01):
I got a ton of dms from realtors. Oh good,
like Lou, you're so right, But we can't tell these
we can't tell this stuff to our clients. We try
to quietly make suggestions because we kind of get what's
going on with the relationships, you know when at the.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Closing, right, Yeah, I know you're right, and it sounded
I don't know if you were a big tomkas fan
or not, but likeas used to give that information to
to help guys, you know, not get into you know,
deep trouble with their significant other.
Speaker 9 (29:30):
Well, I just I saw the story that so many
women are single, women are are buying real estate.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
They're getting in the real estates huge.
Speaker 9 (29:38):
Yeah, and that's that's great, that's that is a way
up in California. Your house will work harder than you did, right,
I mean there are people making one hundred thousand dollars
and their house is appreciating three hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Right, I don't care how much you make.
Speaker 9 (29:50):
You cannot you can't save three hundred thousand dollars tax free,
but the house can do it, right, And so you
have to be aware of just how wealthy you could
be with respect.
Speaker 1 (30:01):
To your house. You know, growing in value. You have exposure.
You have to know about that exposure. And another thing
I love that you talk about because a friend of mine,
a guy named Art in Burbank, experienced this. His refrigerator
caught fire and it burned his entire house down. It's
my pet peevedim. I can't stand it, Evan with chunk.
Speaker 9 (30:21):
It's absolute junk. You know, everything you buy, they come
running after you at you know, at the store, at
the applying store.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
What do they want to sell you? The extended warrants?
Exactly why?
Speaker 9 (30:30):
Because they know it's a piece of junk and it's
gonna blow up in your kitchen. Did your grandfather have
an extended warranty on his refrigerator?
Speaker 8 (30:37):
No?
Speaker 9 (30:37):
You ever remember your grandparents buying a second refrigerator your
entire life.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
I remember my mom had one of those vacuums electro Luxe,
and it looked like a cylinder and that thing could
literally suck an egg out of a mailbox from eight
miles away. You know, it was the greatest vacuum ever.
But but nowadays you buy one and two days later
it breaks or catches fire. Right, that's exactly right, crazy buddy,
(31:03):
I appreciate you coming on and I love listening and
I'll be one of the many listeners tonight. Thank you
very much. I appreciate thank you, sir. Blue Penrose with
ron Or Roner. You gotta be excited about Oscars tomorrow. Hun,
I'm not getting up at five thirty am. You might
still be up though. You have a point, right all right?
Speaker 9 (31:21):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (31:22):
Roner and Penrose next right here on KFI AM six
forty Conway Show on demand on the iHeart Radio app.
Now you can always hear us live on KFI AM
