to come over and see just the one car.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Well, I feel bad that I had to go there too.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
You know, what I saw Jay do on his show

Speaker 3 (06:05):
On Hot Wheels. All of these cars that they came
up with.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
What it is the designer comes in with real cars
they've made, and hot wheels decides whether it should be
made into a hot wheel. Have kids ball about what
they think would be cool. You know, what's like a
sea where the timing belt would be unusual?

like a big deal. I'm just explaining why. I'm sure
he would have camped me. Yeah, it's nice to be
acknowledged by Jay Leno on stage. It's nice knowing he's
(11:04):
in Burbank. I feel more comfortable knowing that he's in Burbank. Yeah,
you know, he's like in my hometown.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, I mean, he's he is a big deal, a
very talented guy, and he's still rocking it. And think
about all the time he's overdue for like a fire
or something, isn't he I mean, like like one of
those garage accidents.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
That he has.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
He's he's He's had to rebuild his face a couple
of times.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I know, he's just he he leans into danger. That's
what I like about that Jay Leno.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
But he's like sort of like Fritz Coleman where he
does a lot of charity work too. Yes, that's true.
I had a charity work with that man. Good dude,
Jay Leno, we should have mine again. Oh, we just did.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I am always delighted to be here.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, here's how old we're getting.
During the commercial break, Mark Thompson and I were talking
about do you have a good plumber? I need a
good plumber.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
We've fallen in love with our plumber.
Speaker 9 (12:04):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
So that's why I asked you because I heard you
talking on your podcast about this guy.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
This is These guys are amazing because we talked to
five different plumbing outfits and these guys tried to save
us money. They were the only ones that really tried
to save us money by saying, well, we don't I
don't think maybe you need necessarily this then, you know,
because they'd heard that from other We said, we heard
that from these other like the companies, that maybe we
should do this, and they said no, no, no, no, no,
that's just going to cost you needlessly. So what's the name, okay, Steve, No,
(12:33):
it's Bob and Josh and one day of Plumbing. And
and they.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Are one may spell out one or number one. No,
it's the number one that's important.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Yeah. And when they're plumbing the ruder exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Yeah, they are.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
They're amazing and they did a huge job for us
under the house.
Speaker 5 (12:55):
What they do place your main line or your timing belt.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
No, they replaced the main line. And I didn't even
hear them. They were like incredible, and they that's because
you have a huge house. And they showed us, you know,
with a camera and everything, everything that they did.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
To put on his jumpsuit or his crawl suit.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
They were so wonderfully quiet and unobtrusia. But when we
had questions, they were really good. Getting to figure out
what we needed to do was the best part. And
as I say, they were lower than every other plumber,
and they seem so great.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
So I and he's an advertiser on your podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Yeah, he's an advertising my podcast too, which is really tall,
which is really great. So one day plumbing and all right,
let's get tell them I told you to go over there.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
You got it, buddy, you got it.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Treehouse wars are continuing.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
You know.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
People they build these treehouses for their kids. Yeah, and
then the guy across the street builds a bigger one,
and then that guy gets has to build a bigger one,
and all of a sudden. It's two Empire State buildings
in Sherman Oaks and that's going on right now in
Sherman Oaks.
Speaker 10 (13:58):
Nic Tree House in Sherman Oaks Navy celebrated its last
few days on Earth Saturday. The owner decided it was
time to tear it down after a long legal battle
with the city. As of yesterday it was still there
and with it a little bit of hope for its survival.
Speaker 7 (14:13):
This is a town built on creativity. It embraces it.
It just seems like you would you would want to
keep things like this up.
Speaker 5 (14:21):
Yeah, but it's nine stories.
Speaker 10 (14:25):
He built the three story fot for his daughters twenty
four years ago.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Wow, how about that three story treehouse. Yeah, it's gotta
be cool.
Speaker 10 (14:33):
Rick was a producer on The Simpsons and this is
the Boney Island treehouse based on an episode.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Okay, I get the connection. All right, that's a cool deal.
Oh wait a minute, I know where this is. If
it's If it's the Boney Island. This guy does a big,
huge Halloween thing every year. If this is still the
same Boney Island house in Sherman Oaks, I've been there.
Speaker 5 (14:55):
Oh, I've been to this house.
Speaker 10 (14:56):
Rick was a producer on the Simpsons, and this is
the Boney Island Treehouse, based on an episode. Now, for
all the years that I've lived near this treehouse, it's
been a staple of the valley, this neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
Do you guys know about this? So you feel okay?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Then I've been to this one so off Cold Water Canyon,
and you haven't been to this treehouse. No, I've been
to his house, but I imagine the treehouse is on
his property.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
No, of course I'm bad. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
But the man they decorated and hundreds of people can
buy for this every single night. I think it bums
the neighbors out, but I enjoyed it. Boney Island, we
went there with the Martins.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
It's a cold deal. It's a great deal.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
This neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Do you guys know about this? You feel I've never
seen it.
Speaker 8 (15:32):
So it's kind of a community.
Speaker 5 (15:34):
Other kids can use.
Speaker 10 (15:35):
Yes, people they get invited all the time. Well, Rick
tells me, nice grass, nice, here's a deal. The trouble
started when a neighbor. One neighbor got fed up with
all the attention that this has brought. Yeah, he says,
the city calls it an ADU and that he doesn't
have the right permit for it. But Rick says he's
been trying to make the treehouse legal forever. It says
(15:56):
the city is not having it.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Listen, Oh that's too bad. He's got to tear it down.
He built it for his kids.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
You know.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
That sucks over fifty thousand dollars and it's been going
on for seven years. It's a criminal case. We went
to the pre trial last month.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (16:09):
It was just so frustrating. We did not get to
have our say. When we left, I just said, I'm
i am not going back to this trial. I'll tear
it down so that the case gets dismissed.
Speaker 10 (16:22):
If the family held an informal farewell to the treehouse
on Saturday morning, it could be torn down this week.
But an update, Rick says that the office of council
Member Nicthia Rahman has reached out. The office says that
they want to help, but he says that they said
the same thing to him last year and came of it.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
Now he's hipped to that, Yeah, hey can help you out.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Yeah you said that last year.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
I've got a wrecking crew here.
Speaker 10 (16:45):
Like he said, it's a criminal charge a misdemeanor for
not tearing it down.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
We will keep you posted.
Speaker 10 (16:52):
So wait a minute, are you saying that the city
of Los Angeles was not responsive to the constituents.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
That's what I'm saying, Okay, Is that Andy Reesemeyer Is
that I think that's him talking, right. I think he's
the guy did the report and.
Speaker 10 (17:04):
He said, I mean a lot of the neighbors saying like,
are there just like, can there not just be a
way we can figure this out? He says, it's never
had an issue as far as safety. I went and
walked through it yesterday, walked off to the top, and
I'm afraid of pretty much everything.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
Yeah, I felt, Oh, that's definitely Andy. Then pretty much everything.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
I'm afraid of pretty much.
Speaker 10 (17:22):
Top and I'm afraid of pretty much everything. Yeah, I
felt I felt fairly safe.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Are the neighbors are upset about it?
Speaker 10 (17:28):
There's like one neighbor allegedly who is upset about it. Yeah,
And you know, I mean I think they used to
have this Halloween party.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
It would attract a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
That's the same house. I've been there a couple of times.
I mean, it's great, it's beautiful. I mean, man, it
is decorated to the knights, and they used to sell
like merchandise.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
Oh wow, it was a big deal.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Well, if they did a three story treehouse for their child,
I'm sure then that the Halloween things.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
They sold food there, drinks, merchandise. It was a big
deal to go to Bonie Island. I've got a lot
of people listening right now are like, Hey, I've been
to Boney Island.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
That house they moved, that Halloween party.
Speaker 10 (18:02):
I understand that that would maybe make people a little upset,
but you know, those kinds of things are so great
to have. I think in La that are they're great
examples of people's creativity and new ideas.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Okay, we'll keep you post.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
It's great, but I didn't live next door to it.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Right now, I think you do have to be sensitive
to the neighbors, especially if they're that many people coming by.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
But I like that guy that that Boney Island.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
You like the Boney Island vibe.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, I like the vibe over there at that house.
You know, I'm not really a big haunted house guy
or Halloween guy. I don't really venture out much to
see any of that crap. But I did go to
that twice. Oh wow, so you really did. I went
there and I'd liked it so much I went back
the next year.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I love repeat business with me on Halloween had to
be spectacular.
Speaker 1 (18:46):

Speaker 8 (19:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Mark Thompson is here and there was a near hit,
a near collision at Midway Airport. There was a Southwest
Airline that was landing Southwest plane and right as it
was landing a touchdown, and then a private jet crossed
(19:49):
right in front of it, and the pilot saw it,
gave it the gas on the southwest and took off again.
But if that pilot didn't see it, there would have
been yet another collision where you could have had hundreds
of people killed. I don't understand what's going on. It
happened at Midway Airport. So let's get the some more deats.
(20:10):
It's short for details.
Speaker 11 (20:12):
It is now an investigation is other way following it
dangerously close this morning at Midway Airport.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Bona Tumbelty's now live from Midway with more details.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Now, Barona, you're on Switty Go Go Go.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
I mean it was some quick thinking by a Southwest
Airlines pilot that avoided or helped avoid disaster.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Here.
Speaker 5 (20:34):
She's Irish.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Last ye she's come to Ireland to make it in
Chicago and she's made it on WGN morning.
Speaker 9 (20:42):
You actually hear the air traffic controller out maneuver me mothered.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
Me father four Roger three thousand.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Oh, it didn't touch down. It came within like a
foot of touching down, and then the southwest side he
saw the private jet in front of him and gave
it the gas man. He jacked it up, juiced it up,
full power, full throttle back to the air.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
Well twenty five zero four when able to turn left,
heading two to zero left heating two two zero.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Up with zero four.
Speaker 9 (21:19):
The video shows the Southwest plane coming in for landing,
arriving from Omahaona Bronski. But there's another plane in its
path on the runway.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Another plane. It's full of whiskey, and you know they're
fighting on the jet.
Speaker 9 (21:31):
Jet, a Bombardier Challenger three point fifty, which was bound
for Knoxville, Tennessee. Southwest Airlines telling us their plane landed
seafely after performing that go around, which happened just before
nine am.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
You know what, pilot's in trouble. I've heard this on
the air traffic control or ground control. When the ground
control will say this, he'll say, yeah, you got a pen.
We've got a phone number for you to call. And
they give the phone number to the pilot and said,
pull you know wherever you can feel safe, wherever you
feel safe, call that number immediately. And they call that
number and they get their ass chewed out.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (22:05):
Yeah, they get worked worked, What were you thinking? What
you know?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
And most of a lot of times they take their
pilot's license from them. You know you're done, You're done.
You called you almost cause a crash like that. You
knew the rules, you knew the boundaries, mahaalo, and they
just rip up your license and you find another gig
that could have killed two hundred people. Two hundred people.
Speaker 9 (22:28):
Dead be in the FAA are both investigating what happened
following a string of recent aviation incidents, including a deadly
midair collision over the Potomac River the Philadelphia medevac crush.
Speaker 5 (22:40):
I got a question for you.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
When when you get off a plane and the pilots
the cockpit door, they still call it cockpit.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
I don't know what do they call it flight deck?
Why wouldn't they call it cockpit? Mark? Think about it.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
But so when you're walking off the plane, yes, and
you and the cockpit door or the flight deck door
is open, do you ever you know, hey, nice landing?
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I always go thanks guys, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yeahs always Okay, I do the same thing. I think
it's good luck. I think it's good manners. Just those
guys got me there safe. Yeah, I enjoy that. I'm
exact like you.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Now, different scenario. You're in Toronto planes upside down. You're
walking off the plane and both guys, this is the
Delta plane that's upside down. Both pilots are still in
their seat. They're upside down, their hairs falling towards the ground.
It's a mess. Their caps are off. What do you
say to those guys? Thanks a lot, you piece of ass.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Probably would wouldn't say anything.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
You mother, you get a piece of you.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
I don't even know.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
You all must kill me.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yeah, almost killed everybody back here. What happened with that flight, Tim,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I don't think anybody knows. Yeah, I always they're trying
to blame it on the chick, but I don't that's
their fault or not. She's twenty six years old. It
was her first landing ever, she's never landed anything. Well,
she she had to, no, she worked, she was a
she was a flight attendant. And then they said, hey,
we've got an opening up here, and she sat up
there and landed that.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Oh okay, that's what I heard. All right. Well, I
don't know. I don't want to getting your information.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
I don't know, man, Maybe it's I get my stories
mixed up. But she h a twenty six year old woman.
You know, they're celebrating that. You know, these planes they
did a video this flight is unmanned and it was
a woman pilot, woman captain, and three women as flight attendants.
Not a man on the plane. That's not that flight.
(24:40):
But they celebrate that kind of craziness over there.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Yeah, but I'm just saying what happened on this flight day.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
I think that she's never landed a plane before in
her life, and I think she's not that's true at all,
all right. I think she was blind and she never learned.
This is one of the reasons I like, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
You know, FA regulations, there are regulations those two you know,
who can fly plane.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
That's exactly right, kind of it's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
You know, there's a rigorous examination of who those pilots are.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
In the right Put the best pilots in the world
up there.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Oh, then then I don't know what's going on, that's.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Right, all right. The Eagles said they were not going
to the White House. Did they change their mind? I
don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:19):
We'll find out we could back.
Speaker 8 (25:20):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demyan from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Mark Thompson here is here. I guess they filled out
the Eagles. They won the Super Bowl and they were
not going to go to the White House. They're going
to say no.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, there's a team meeting, I guess, and they just
sat against it.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I think the NFL called him up and said, guess
who's going to the White House? You guys, you guys
are going. They said, wow, we don't think we are,
Well you are, You're going. That's what we uh, that's
what we do in this country. We go to the
White House after we were in the Super Bowl. And
(25:57):
the tradition continues, and you guys will be on a
bus or a plane and you're going. That's the latest
out of Washington, d C.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
Philadelphia Eagles on the Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (26:08):
Are they being extended in invitation? They will be.
Speaker 12 (26:11):
We haven't yet, but we will be. I thought it
was a great performance.
Speaker 5 (26:15):
That the owner of the Eagles.
Speaker 6 (26:18):
They will be. We haven't yet, but we will be.
Speaker 12 (26:20):
I thought it was a great performance by them, and
absolutely they'll they'll be extended that invitation.
Speaker 6 (26:28):
Would you do that right away? By the water. We'll
do it right away. We're gonna do it.
Speaker 2 (26:31):

There you go.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
They'll be extended that invitation. Would you do that right away?
Speaker 2 (26:58):
But yes, yeah, I'll get right on that.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
They'll be extended that invitation.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Sweetheart, do me a favor, gonna invite together for the egos?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Would you call Philadelphia Philadelphia Line one?
Speaker 3 (27:09):
All right?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
You know what was awkward about this, of course, is
not the fact that they voted against you. That's awkward
in itself, but that trump because I guess Patrick Mahones's
wife was like a big big she had come out,
so he came out for the chiefs and because of that, right,
and so it's just odd. You know again, I don't
(27:32):
think anybody cares.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
It's all.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Everybody's gracious and you know, well, it'll go well, but
you know what I mean, it was just like one of.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Those things McDonald's burger's piled up.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I mean it'll be great.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, all right, does that guy I saw this in
the news. I've never seen this before. I've seen many
different ways of smuggling cocaine in this country. I've never
seen a guy sew it into his hair piece. Ten
thousand dollars worth of coke into his wig. It's wild, man,
it is great. Talk about a bad hair day. A
(28:04):
man in Colombia is in custody after he was caught
with a cocaine stuffed wig at an airport. The forty
year old was boarding a flight to Amsterdam last week,
but security scanners showed he was hiding something, so authorities
cut through the man's wig and they found cocaine capsules
valued it more than.
Speaker 5 (28:22):
Ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
He's now expected to face charges of trafficking, manufacturing, and
possession of narcotics.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
That's a bad expensive to pay.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Yeah, yeah, but you know, look, if coke was in
your luggage, you know you could say, I don't know,
somebody put it there. You know, I have an ex
wife who hates me. You know, she put the gun
in there with the coke, or it's somebody else's bag, whatever,
But when that coke sewn into your hair, it's really
tough to separate yourself from that act.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Yeah, that's very hard to have a backup story.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
You're absolutely right.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
All right, I don't know if this is going to.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
It always felt weird to me.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I wondered about what was I'm so gad So you're
saying there's coke in there.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
That's right, there's cocaine bags in my hair.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
It's just so weird, you know, wearing this thing for
eighteen months and it always felt weird to me.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
You know, the coke mules that swallow the balloons, and
they'll swallow like ten balloons, and then they'll get to
the United States and then they'll you know, go number
two and then they'll sift the balloons out of the toilet.
Two things wonder A is that discounted because of the
tour of the body. And b sometimes those balloons erupt
(29:39):
in your digestive system. Sure when they erupt before the
person dies of a massive heart attack, is there like
a twenty second really great time in their life? You know,
right before they die, there like a euphoria. Yeah, like
twenty seconds of This is the greatest airplane meal I've
ever had in my life.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
I'm guessing it's a bad way to go.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
But don't you think there's a little bit if youphor
it before you die?
Speaker 3 (30:04):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
But oh man, that's a nice that's a nice twist
on it.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
This Fried Green Tomato is the best movie I've ever
seen in my life. All right, Oh man, that guy
must be on coke bags or coke balloons or something.
Maybe maybe I don't know.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
All right, let's get into another story here. I don't
know if this is going to affect.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
You or not.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Maybe Courtney is going to be more effected than you.
Joeanne Fabrics closing story.
Speaker 11 (30:29):
Retailer at Joanne will now close all of its stores

Speaker 2 (30:33):
I'm sorry, I said Joe Ann's. It's Joe Anne Fabrics.

How long you've been in the fabric game?
Speaker 11 (30:54):
Retailer at Joanne will now close all of its stores
nationwide pending approval of a bankruptcy court. The fabrics and
craft store will start conducting going out of business sales.
Joanne has been in business for more than eighty years wow,
and has more than one hundred stores. Today's news, though
folding plans to close five hundred of those stores after
a second bankruptcy filing last night.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
I wonder if eighty years ago was founded by somebody
named Joanne?
Speaker 3 (31:22):
What do you think?
Speaker 2 (31:23):
I'm going to say, Yes, let me see, I'm going
to go with my gut, like I was right with Wendy's.
Wendy's is named after a real person. I'm going to
say joe Anne was named after a woman. I'm gonna
go with woman who was radically You know where it started?
(31:44):
Apparently in Cleveland?
Speaker 5 (31:46):
Is that all?
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (31:47):
There was a big Joanne in Joanne.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Cleveland Fabric Shop nineteen forty three.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Wow, man, oh man, what a run may be in
the fabric game.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Now, don't see anybody named Joanne though the German immigrants
Hilda and Berthold Reich, Sigmund and Matilda Roorbach and Justin
and Alma Zimmerman opened the Cleveland Fabric Shop in Cleveland,
Ohio in nineteen forty three.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Was she the first Reich, the second Reich, the third Reich?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Oh? You think they might have been. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I'm sure they were fleeing the third Reich, but they did.
You're right, Berthold Reich is the last name. I don't see.
None of the founders, none of them. Joe An, joe Anne.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Yeah, okay, Well maybe they just thought that was a good,
you know, solid American name.
Speaker 5 (32:38):
Joe Anne. That's a good name. They're right, joe Anne Fabric.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
The store's original name wasn't that, It was Cleveland Fabric Shop.
And then they changed the name to joe Anne Fabrics
in nineteen sixty three, and the name was created by
combining the names of the daughters from both families, Joan
and Jacqueline Anne, and you ended up with joe and Fabrics,
(33:01):
and it became a publicly held corporation.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
And now now they're closing all those stories. But that's
their story.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Great, Okay, We're live on KFI. When we come back,
I'm going to tell you I thought that it is
a good run. It is a good run for people

Yeah yeah, oh my god, Jay, I feel like if
I ever you know, I'd love to see your garage.
But I feel like if I ever took a tour,
you would feel obligated to come see my garage. And
I felt and I'd feel like bad that you'd have
to come over and see just the one car.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Well, I feel bad that I had to go there too.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
You know, what I saw Jay do on his show
was the coolest thing. He does a lot of cool stuff,
but that thing that you were part of, Jay, this
is a few years ago.

for charity for kids charity.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah, it's based.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
On Hot Wheels. All of these cars that they came
up with.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
What it is the designer comes in with real cars
they've made, and hot wheels decides whether it should be
made into a hot wheel. Have kids ball about what
they think would be cool. You know, what's like a
sea where the timing belt would be unusual?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yes? Jay, when what's the fastest that you've driven a car?
You were the driver? And how fast did you go.

other the show, he says, hey, like my bunny, I
didn't tell him that I was there. I know he
said that about me when I was there. I felt
like a big deal. I'm just explaining why. I'm sure
he would have camped me. Yeah, it's nice to be
acknowledged by Jay Leno on stage. It's nice knowing he's
(11:04):
in Burbank. I feel more comfortable knowing that he's in Burbank. Yeah,
you know, he's like in my hometown.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, I mean, he's he is a big deal, a
very talented guy, and he's still rocking it. And think
about all the time he's overdue for like a fire
or something, isn't he I mean, like like one of
those garage accidents.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
That he has.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
He's he's He's had to rebuild his face a couple
of times.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I know, he's just he he leans into danger. That's
what I like about that Jay Leno.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
But he's like sort of like Fritz Coleman where he
does a lot of charity work too. Yes, that's true.
I had a charity work with that man. Good dude,
Jay Leno, we should have mine again. Oh, we just did.
Speaker 8 (11:41):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I am always delighted to be here.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, here's how old we're getting.
During the commercial break, Mark Thompson and I were talking
about do you have a good plumber? I need a
good plumber.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
We've fallen in love with our plumber.
Speaker 9 (12:04):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
So that's why I asked you because I heard you
talking on your podcast about this guy.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
This is These guys are amazing because we talked to
five different plumbing outfits and these guys tried to save
us money. They were the only ones that really tried
to save us money by saying, well, we don't I
don't think maybe you need necessarily this then, you know,
because they'd heard that from other We said, we heard
that from these other like the companies, that maybe we
should do this, and they said no, no, no, no, no,
that's just going to cost you needlessly. So what's the name, okay, Steve, No,
(12:33):
it's Bob and Josh and one day of Plumbing. And
and they.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Are one may spell out one or number one. No,
it's the number one that's important.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Yeah. And when they're plumbing the ruder exactly.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Yeah, they are.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
They're amazing and they did a huge job for us
under the house.
Speaker 5 (12:55):
What they do place your main line or your timing belt.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
No, they replaced the main line. And I didn't even
hear them. They were like incredible, and they that's because
you have a huge house. And they showed us, you know,
with a camera and everything, everything that they did.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
To put on his jumpsuit or his crawl suit.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
They were so wonderfully quiet and unobtrusia. But when we
had questions, they were really good. Getting to figure out
what we needed to do was the best part. And
as I say, they were lower than every other plumber,
and they seem so great.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
So I and he's an advertiser on your podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Yeah, he's an advertising my podcast too, which is really tall,
which is really great. So one day plumbing and all right,
let's get tell them I told you to go over there.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
You got it, buddy, you got it.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Treehouse wars are continuing.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
You know.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
People they build these treehouses for their kids. Yeah, and
then the guy across the street builds a bigger one,
and then that guy gets has to build a bigger one,
and all of a sudden. It's two Empire State buildings
in Sherman Oaks and that's going on right now in
Sherman Oaks.
Speaker 10 (13:58):
Nic Tree House in Sherman Oaks Navy celebrated its last
few days on Earth Saturday. The owner decided it was
time to tear it down after a long legal battle
with the city. As of yesterday it was still there
and with it a little bit of hope for its survival.
Speaker 7 (14:13):
This is a town built on creativity. It embraces it.
It just seems like you would you would want to
keep things like this up.
Speaker 5 (14:21):
Yeah, but it's nine stories.
Speaker 10 (14:25):
He built the three story fot for his daughters twenty
four years ago.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Wow, how about that three story treehouse. Yeah, it's gotta
be cool.
Speaker 10 (14:33):
Rick was a producer on The Simpsons and this is
the Boney Island treehouse based on an episode.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Okay, I get the connection. All right, that's a cool deal.
Oh wait a minute, I know where this is. If
it's If it's the Boney Island. This guy does a big,
huge Halloween thing every year. If this is still the
same Boney Island house in Sherman Oaks, I've been there.
Speaker 5 (14:55):
Oh, I've been to this house.
Speaker 10 (14:56):
Rick was a producer on the Simpsons, and this is
the Boney Island Treehouse, based on an episode. Now, for
all the years that I've lived near this treehouse, it's
been a staple of the valley, this neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (15:06):
Do you guys know about this? So you feel okay?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Then I've been to this one so off Cold Water Canyon,
and you haven't been to this treehouse. No, I've been
to his house, but I imagine the treehouse is on
his property.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
No, of course I'm bad. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
But the man they decorated and hundreds of people can
buy for this every single night. I think it bums
the neighbors out, but I enjoyed it. Boney Island, we
went there with the Martins.
Speaker 5 (15:27):
It's a cold deal. It's a great deal.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
This neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Do you guys know about this? You feel I've never
seen it.
Speaker 8 (15:32):
So it's kind of a community.
Speaker 5 (15:34):
Other kids can use.
Speaker 10 (15:35):
Yes, people they get invited all the time. Well, Rick
tells me, nice grass, nice, here's a deal. The trouble
started when a neighbor. One neighbor got fed up with
all the attention that this has brought. Yeah, he says,
the city calls it an ADU and that he doesn't
have the right permit for it. But Rick says he's
been trying to make the treehouse legal forever. It says
(15:56):
the city is not having it.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Listen, Oh that's too bad. He's got to tear it down.
He built it for his kids.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
You know.
Speaker 7 (16:01):
That sucks over fifty thousand dollars and it's been going
on for seven years. It's a criminal case. We went
to the pre trial last month.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (16:09):
It was just so frustrating. We did not get to
have our say. When we left, I just said, I'm
i am not going back to this trial. I'll tear
it down so that the case gets dismissed.
Speaker 10 (16:22):
If the family held an informal farewell to the treehouse
on Saturday morning, it could be torn down this week.
But an update, Rick says that the office of council
Member Nicthia Rahman has reached out. The office says that
they want to help, but he says that they said
the same thing to him last year and came of it.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
Now he's hipped to that, Yeah, hey can help you out.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Yeah you said that last year.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
I've got a wrecking crew here.
Speaker 10 (16:45):
Like he said, it's a criminal charge a misdemeanor for
not tearing it down.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
We will keep you posted.
Speaker 10 (16:52):
So wait a minute, are you saying that the city
of Los Angeles was not responsive to the constituents.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
That's what I'm saying, Okay, Is that Andy Reesemeyer Is
that I think that's him talking, right. I think he's
the guy did the report and.
Speaker 10 (17:04):
He said, I mean a lot of the neighbors saying like,
are there just like, can there not just be a
way we can figure this out? He says, it's never
had an issue as far as safety. I went and
walked through it yesterday, walked off to the top, and
I'm afraid of pretty much everything.
Speaker 5 (17:16):
Yeah, I felt, Oh, that's definitely Andy. Then pretty much everything.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
I'm afraid of pretty much.
Speaker 10 (17:22):
Top and I'm afraid of pretty much everything. Yeah, I
felt I felt fairly safe.
Speaker 5 (17:26):
Are the neighbors are upset about it?
Speaker 10 (17:28):
There's like one neighbor allegedly who is upset about it. Yeah,
And you know, I mean I think they used to
have this Halloween party.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
It would attract a lot of people.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
That's the same house. I've been there a couple of times.
I mean, it's great, it's beautiful. I mean, man, it
is decorated to the knights, and they used to sell
like merchandise.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
Oh wow, it was a big deal.
Speaker 1 (17:46):
Well, if they did a three story treehouse for their child,
I'm sure then that the Halloween things.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
They sold food there, drinks, merchandise. It was a big
deal to go to Bonie Island. I've got a lot
of people listening right now are like, Hey, I've been
to Boney Island.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
That house they moved, that Halloween party.
Speaker 10 (18:02):
I understand that that would maybe make people a little upset,
but you know, those kinds of things are so great
to have. I think in La that are they're great
examples of people's creativity and new ideas.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
Okay, we'll keep you post.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
It's great, but I didn't live next door to it.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Right now, I think you do have to be sensitive
to the neighbors, especially if they're that many people coming by.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
But I like that guy that that Boney Island.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
You like the Boney Island vibe.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, I like the vibe over there at that house.
You know, I'm not really a big haunted house guy
or Halloween guy. I don't really venture out much to
see any of that crap. But I did go to
that twice. Oh wow, so you really did. I went
there and I'd liked it so much I went back
the next year.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
I love that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I love repeat business with me on Halloween had to
be spectacular.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
By the way, Tim A quick correction, Yes, sir. On
the plumber, my favorite plumber, the ones we're in love with.
It's one day Router and Plumbing. I think I said
one day plumbing. It's one day router and plumbing, the
number one one day router and plumbing. John, That's what
I saw you do it, and I thought, call it
one one day router in plumbing dot Com.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
I called the wrong guy, mentioned me Conway and maybe
they'll give you a break. I called another guy and
he says, he send me five hundred bucks. Will be over. Okay,
what is it?
Speaker 1 (19:14):
One day router, the number one day router and plumbing
dot com and it's Bob and Josh over there.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
It's easier to move.
Speaker 8 (19:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Mark Thompson is here and there was a near hit,
a near collision at Midway Airport. There was a Southwest
Airline that was landing Southwest plane and right as it
was landing a touchdown, and then a private jet crossed
(19:49):
right in front of it, and the pilot saw it,
gave it the gas on the southwest and took off again.
But if that pilot didn't see it, there would have
been yet another collision where you could have had hundreds
of people killed. I don't understand what's going on. It
happened at Midway Airport. So let's get the some more deats.
(20:10):
It's short for details.
Speaker 11 (20:12):
It is now an investigation is other way following it
dangerously close this morning at Midway Airport.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Bona Tumbelty's now live from Midway with more details.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Now, Barona, you're on Switty Go Go Go.
Speaker 9 (20:27):
I mean it was some quick thinking by a Southwest
Airlines pilot that avoided or helped avoid disaster.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Here.
Speaker 5 (20:34):
She's Irish.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Last ye she's come to Ireland to make it in
Chicago and she's made it on WGN morning.
Speaker 9 (20:42):
You actually hear the air traffic controller out maneuver me mothered.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
Me father four Roger three thousand.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
Oh, it didn't touch down. It came within like a
foot of touching down, and then the southwest side he
saw the private jet in front of him and gave
it the gas man. He jacked it up, juiced it up,
full power, full throttle back to the air.
Speaker 4 (21:11):
Well twenty five zero four when able to turn left,
heading two to zero left heating two two zero.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
Up with zero four.
Speaker 9 (21:19):
The video shows the Southwest plane coming in for landing,
arriving from Omahaona Bronski. But there's another plane in its
path on the runway.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Another plane. It's full of whiskey, and you know they're
fighting on the jet.
Speaker 9 (21:31):
Jet, a Bombardier Challenger three point fifty, which was bound
for Knoxville, Tennessee. Southwest Airlines telling us their plane landed
seafely after performing that go around, which happened just before
nine am.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
You know what, pilot's in trouble. I've heard this on
the air traffic control or ground control. When the ground
control will say this, he'll say, yeah, you got a pen.
We've got a phone number for you to call. And
they give the phone number to the pilot and said,
pull you know wherever you can feel safe, wherever you
feel safe, call that number immediately. And they call that
number and they get their ass chewed out.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (22:05):
Yeah, they get worked worked, What were you thinking? What
you know?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
And most of a lot of times they take their
pilot's license from them. You know you're done, You're done.
You called you almost cause a crash like that. You
knew the rules, you knew the boundaries, mahaalo, and they
just rip up your license and you find another gig
that could have killed two hundred people. Two hundred people.
Speaker 9 (22:28):
Dead be in the FAA are both investigating what happened
following a string of recent aviation incidents, including a deadly
midair collision over the Potomac River the Philadelphia medevac crush.
Speaker 5 (22:40):
I got a question for you.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
When when you get off a plane and the pilots
the cockpit door, they still call it cockpit.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
I don't know what do they call it flight deck?
Why wouldn't they call it cockpit? Mark? Think about it.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
But so when you're walking off the plane, yes, and
you and the cockpit door or the flight deck door
is open, do you ever you know, hey, nice landing?
Speaker 3 (23:08):
I always go thanks guys, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yeahs always Okay, I do the same thing. I think
it's good luck. I think it's good manners. Just those
guys got me there safe. Yeah, I enjoy that. I'm
exact like you.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Now, different scenario. You're in Toronto planes upside down. You're
walking off the plane and both guys, this is the
Delta plane that's upside down. Both pilots are still in
their seat. They're upside down, their hairs falling towards the ground.
It's a mess. Their caps are off. What do you
say to those guys? Thanks a lot, you piece of ass.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Probably would wouldn't say anything.
Speaker 5 (23:45):
You mother, you get a piece of you.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
I don't even know.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
You all must kill me.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yeah, almost killed everybody back here. What happened with that flight, Tim,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
I don't think anybody knows. Yeah, I always they're trying
to blame it on the chick, but I don't that's
their fault or not. She's twenty six years old. It
was her first landing ever, she's never landed anything. Well,
she she had to, no, she worked, she was a
she was a flight attendant. And then they said, hey,
we've got an opening up here, and she sat up
there and landed that.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Oh okay, that's what I heard. All right. Well, I
don't know. I don't want to getting your information.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
I don't know, man, Maybe it's I get my stories
mixed up. But she h a twenty six year old woman.
You know, they're celebrating that. You know, these planes they
did a video this flight is unmanned and it was
a woman pilot, woman captain, and three women as flight attendants.
Not a man on the plane. That's not that flight.
(24:40):
But they celebrate that kind of craziness over there.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Yeah, but I'm just saying what happened on this flight day.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
I think that she's never landed a plane before in
her life, and I think she's not that's true at all,
all right. I think she was blind and she never learned.
This is one of the reasons I like, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
You know, FA regulations, there are regulations those two you know,
who can fly plane.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
That's exactly right, kind of it's exactly right.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
You know, there's a rigorous examination of who those pilots are.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
In the right Put the best pilots in the world
up there.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Oh, then then I don't know what's going on, that's.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Right, all right. The Eagles said they were not going
to the White House. Did they change their mind? I
don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:19):
We'll find out we could back.
Speaker 8 (25:20):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demyan from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Mark Thompson here is here. I guess they filled out
the Eagles. They won the Super Bowl and they were
not going to go to the White House. They're going
to say no.
Speaker 1 (25:33):
Yeah, there's a team meeting, I guess, and they just
sat against it.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
I think the NFL called him up and said, guess
who's going to the White House? You guys, you guys
are going. They said, wow, we don't think we are,
Well you are, You're going. That's what we uh, that's
what we do in this country. We go to the
White House after we were in the Super Bowl. And
(25:57):
the tradition continues, and you guys will be on a
bus or a plane and you're going. That's the latest
out of Washington, d C.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
Philadelphia Eagles on the Super Bowl.
Speaker 6 (26:08):
Are they being extended in invitation? They will be.
Speaker 12 (26:11):
We haven't yet, but we will be. I thought it
was a great performance.
Speaker 5 (26:15):
That the owner of the Eagles.
Speaker 6 (26:18):
They will be. We haven't yet, but we will be.
Speaker 12 (26:20):
I thought it was a great performance by them, and
absolutely they'll they'll be extended that invitation.
Speaker 6 (26:28):
Would you do that right away? By the water. We'll

Speaker 2 (26:31):

Speaker 2 (26:55):
There you go.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
They'll be extended that invitation. Would you do that right away?
Speaker 2 (26:58):
But yes, yeah, I'll get right on that.
Speaker 6 (27:00):
They'll be extended that invitation.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Sweetheart, do me a favor, gonna invite together for the egos?
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Would you call Philadelphia Philadelphia Line one?
Speaker 3 (27:09):
All right?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
You know what was awkward about this, of course, is
not the fact that they voted against you. That's awkward
in itself, but that trump because I guess Patrick Mahones's
wife was like a big big she had come out,
so he came out for the chiefs and because of that, right,
and so it's just odd. You know again, I don't
(27:32):
think anybody cares.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
It's all.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Everybody's gracious and you know, well, it'll go well, but
you know what I mean, it was just like one of.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Those things McDonald's burger's piled up.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I mean it'll be great.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, all right, does that guy I saw this in
the news. I've never seen this before. I've seen many
different ways of smuggling cocaine in this country. I've never
seen a guy sew it into his hair piece. Ten
thousand dollars worth of coke into his wig. It's wild, man,
it is great. Talk about a bad hair day. A
(28:04):
man in Colombia is in custody after he was caught
with a cocaine stuffed wig at an airport. The forty
year old was boarding a flight to Amsterdam last week,
but security scanners showed he was hiding something, so authorities
cut through the man's wig and they found cocaine capsules
valued it more than.
Speaker 5 (28:22):
Ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
He's now expected to face charges of trafficking, manufacturing, and
possession of narcotics.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
That's a bad expensive to pay.
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Yeah, yeah, but you know, look, if coke was in
your luggage, you know you could say, I don't know,
somebody put it there. You know, I have an ex
wife who hates me. You know, she put the gun
in there with the coke, or it's somebody else's bag, whatever,
But when that coke sewn into your hair, it's really
tough to separate yourself from that act.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Yeah, that's very hard to have a backup story.
Speaker 3 (28:56):
You're absolutely right.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
All right, I don't know if this is going to.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
It always felt weird to me.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
I wondered about what was I'm so gad So you're
saying there's coke in there.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
That's right, there's cocaine bags in my hair.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
It's just so weird, you know, wearing this thing for
eighteen months and it always felt weird to me.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
I'm telling you.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
You know, the coke mules that swallow the balloons, and
they'll swallow like ten balloons, and then they'll get to
the United States and then they'll you know, go number
two and then they'll sift the balloons out of the toilet.
Two things wonder A is that discounted because of the
tour of the body. And b sometimes those balloons erupt
(29:39):
in your digestive system. Sure when they erupt before the
person dies of a massive heart attack, is there like
a twenty second really great time in their life? You know,
right before they die, there like a euphoria. Yeah, like
twenty seconds of This is the greatest airplane meal I've
ever had in my life.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
I'm guessing it's a bad way to go.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
But don't you think there's a little bit if youphor
it before you die?
Speaker 3 (30:04):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
But oh man, that's a nice that's a nice twist
on it.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
This Fried Green Tomato is the best movie I've ever
seen in my life. All right, Oh man, that guy
must be on coke bags or coke balloons or something.
Maybe maybe I don't know.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
All right, let's get into another story here. I don't
know if this is going to affect.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
You or not.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Maybe Courtney is going to be more effected than you.
Joeanne Fabrics closing story.
Speaker 11 (30:29):
Retailer at Joanne will now close all of its stores
nationwide pending approval of it.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
I'm sorry, I said Joe Ann's. It's Joe Anne Fabrics.
I've got an email on that.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Yeah, you don't want to blow that.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
I've called it Joe Ann's before and then lady emails me.
He goes, no, no, no, it's joe Anne, not Joe Ann's.
How long you've been around, how long you've been in
the fabric game, But.
Speaker 3 (30:51):
How long you've been in the fabric game?
Speaker 11 (30:54):
Retailer at Joanne will now close all of its stores
nationwide pending approval of a bankruptcy court. The fabrics and
craft store will start conducting going out of business sales.
Joanne has been in business for more than eighty years wow,
and has more than one hundred stores. Today's news, though
folding plans to close five hundred of those stores after
a second bankruptcy filing last night.
Speaker 6 (31:16):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
I wonder if eighty years ago was founded by somebody
named Joanne?
Speaker 3 (31:22):
What do you think?
Speaker 2 (31:23):
I'm going to say, Yes, let me see, I'm going
to go with my gut, like I was right with Wendy's.
Wendy's is named after a real person. I'm going to
say joe Anne was named after a woman. I'm gonna
go with woman who was radically You know where it started?
(31:44):
Apparently in Cleveland?
Speaker 5 (31:46):
Is that all?
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (31:47):
There was a big Joanne in Joanne.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Cleveland Fabric Shop nineteen forty three.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Wow, man, oh man, what a run may be in
the fabric game.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Now, don't see anybody named Joanne though the German immigrants
Hilda and Berthold Reich, Sigmund and Matilda Roorbach and Justin
and Alma Zimmerman opened the Cleveland Fabric Shop in Cleveland,
Ohio in nineteen forty three.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Was she the first Reich, the second Reich, the third Reich?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Oh? You think they might have been. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I'm sure they were fleeing the third Reich, but they did.
You're right, Berthold Reich is the last name. I don't see.
None of the founders, none of them. Joe An, joe Anne.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Yeah, okay, Well maybe they just thought that was a good,
you know, solid American name.
Speaker 5 (32:38):
Joe Anne. That's a good name. They're right, joe Anne Fabric.
Speaker 3 (32:41):
The store's original name wasn't that, It was Cleveland Fabric Shop.
And then they changed the name to joe Anne Fabrics
in nineteen sixty three, and the name was created by
combining the names of the daughters from both families, Joan
and Jacqueline Anne, and you ended up with joe and Fabrics,
(33:01):
and it became a publicly held corporation.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
And now now they're closing all those stories. But that's
their story.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Great, Okay, We're live on KFI. When we come back,
I'm going to tell you I thought that it is
a good run. It is a good run for people
and fabric stories. When we come back, I'm going to
tell you who your best friend is. I can tell
you who your best friend is. I can ask you
just like a question to and determine who your best
friend is. Who Crowsier's best friend, Robin's best friend, and
(33:29):
an Angel's best friend. I can tell you we come
back who your best friend is by just a question
or two. I can tell you who your best friend is.
