We kick things off with Dave’s Hot Chicken and a growing frustration in Orange County, where residents say the smell from the Frank R. Bowerman Landfill is impacting Portola Springs in Irvine. The landfill — one of the largest in California with an estimated 31 million tons of waste — has neighbors demanding answers and relief.
Dean Sharp, The House Whisperer, joins the show with design wisdom you won’t hear anywhere else. Growing up near the Scholl Canyon Landfill, Dean breaks down how smart design can overcome almost anything. He shares must-know tips on home orientation and situation, why Juliette balconies add real value, and how layered light sources can completely transform a space.
More from Dean as he dives into skylights — including why going frosted might be the smartest move you can make for comfort and resale.
And finally, people turning to Trader Joes to save money. Plus, a look at Olympics women’s hockey as excitement builds.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Did anyone get
Dave's Hot Chicken? Do you get the email today about
Dave's Hot Chicken coming in? Did you get any Steffansh?
I definitely did not. Did you get the email? Nope,
I got it. Did you get Dave's Hot?
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Why am I always looked down at the Yeah? I
know you should be definitely on top of that list priority.
Do you get any croach you go to Dave's Hot No,
it was a little before I got here. It was
at ten thirty or ten forty five this morning, and
it was yesterday? Was it yesterday? Was supposed to be.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Originally Tuesday, and then something happened and they made it yesterday,
And then.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Yeah, I was going to commit. I love Dave's Hot
I go to the one in Burbank at the Empire Center,
and my daughter likes that too, So we go and
have Dave's Hot Chicken. It's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Plus plus they put it by the PD's office in
the FM's upstairs.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
And I, yeah, I don't like going up there. Yeah right,
people got a stink, but it is good chicken. That
Dave's Hot. They have one out near you in Claremont.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yes, yes, there's a Dave's. There's a Clydes. There's a
couple of hot chicken places. Yeah, a lot of hot
chicken plates that popped up. But I heard something about
that Dave's Hot Chicken, like once some kind of a
ward or something that Dave's there is the one that's
down that's downtown, that was like the best restaurant for years. Yeah,
I got nominated for something that another hot Chicken. I
(01:29):
think that was like another one like Frank's or something.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
May have been, but that Dave's Hot. My move is
no spice at all. I go naked and then I
put Franks on.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Howland Raves Holland raised.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
That's the one that every knows, But that Dave's Hot Chicken.
They cook it when you get there. The fries are unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
I think Dave's is probably the biggest one of those
hot chicken places.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
It used to be a Greek place and at the
Empire Center, and then that the great Greek moved on
and replaced with Dave's Hot Chicken. Belly. Do you like
Dave's Hot chicken.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I do.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Actually, that's something you'll eat. Oh yeah, John, eat that?
Oh yes, Hey. What is the smell going on in Irvine?
Is there a big landfill problem? Can you smell it
at your place?
Speaker 5 (02:18):
No?
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Luckily no, it's more up northwest of up Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
I will say this though, if once Irvine knows that
that problem exists, they will put every man and woman
possible in that city on that case until it's resolved.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
The residents will love to hear that.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
They will do that. Irvine does not f around when
residents complain. When they complain, they listen to complaints, they
write them down, and then they get their best people
on it. I know that for a fact. But there's
a problem going on in Irvine that will be solved
shortly because it's getting some attention.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
We cannot open the windows, we can't open the sliding
or because the smell is so so bad.
Speaker 6 (03:03):
Irvine resident Monica Fontau says the odor from a nearby
landfill comes early in the morning and at night and
during Santa Ana wind conditions.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Oh that's a lot of time. Every morning, every night,
and sant Ana wins. Seems like every day.
Speaker 6 (03:18):
The South Coast air quality Management District has slapped three
violations on the Frank Bowerman Landfill, which is owned and operated.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
By what's the landfill called?
Speaker 7 (03:27):
It's on the Frank Barerman Landfill.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Frank Bowerman Landfill.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
Frank Barwerman Landfill.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Where who are they naming landfills after? Is there a
you're gonna want one? Yeah, I definitely want one, the
ding Dong Landfill.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Ding Dong land Ding a dog?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
But who's okaying that? You know? You want the Bellio Landfill?
Speaker 4 (03:48):
No, no good?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
How do they pick the name? Is this like a
land a triple murder?
Speaker 7 (03:54):
That's his name again, Frank Berman.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Land Frank Bowerman. Did he wipe out some I don't know,
a restaurant and killed twenty people? So they named a
landfill after I don't know. How do you How do
you name a landfill after? That's you name it after somebody?
Speaker 8 (04:08):
Good?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Or yeah? Right? At criminal? It's got a funk to them,
that's right.
Speaker 6 (04:12):
Frank Bowerman Landfill, which is owned and operated by the
County of Orange.
Speaker 7 (04:16):
The AQMD says it's in.
Speaker 6 (04:18):
Response to complaints from the community about sour garbage type odors.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
It's almost like you open up your trash and the
smell comes out, but it's permeating all throughout there. You
can't escape it. If you go to Woodbury Town Center,
you're smelling it.
Speaker 7 (04:33):
It's everywhere.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Oh, they tried to change into Woodbury. Well you're smelling Woodbury's.
Now you're not. You're smelling diapers.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
If you go to Woodbury Town Center, you're smelling it.
It's everywhere.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Oh, they got to do something about it. They will.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Fontau lives in the Portola Springs community, a couple of
miles from the.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Land God, every Dame sounds so beautiful down there. Portola
Springs lives.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
In the Portola Springs community, a couple of miles from
the landfill. Homes are being built around the solid waste
stump that opened more than three decades ago.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Okay, well that'll be fun.
Speaker 6 (05:03):
Landfill director Tom Katrullis says the county will comply with
the AQMD regarding the complaints.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
This landfill was built and established back in nineteen ninety
and back then we didn't have residence, but now we do.
So we're doing everything we possibly can to mitigate any
impact associated with our ongoing operations.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I like this guy. He's pissed. You can tell he's angry.
He's got a lot of complaints. And now this idiot
Kafi is doing the story. You can hear it in
his voice.
Speaker 8 (05:30):
This landfill was built and established back in nineteen ninety
and back then we didn't have residence.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
That's right. We do have you people around, Bellio, around
his brother, husband, crazy dogs.
Speaker 8 (05:42):
And back then we didn't have residence, but now we do.
So we're doing everything we possibly can to mitigate any
impact associated with our ongoing operation.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
Stop complaining, Katrillis says.
Speaker 6 (05:52):
Drones are being used to monitor and manage odors and
landfill gases emitted from the buried trash.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I don't know what you do mean, and I think
what in the past, what they've done is they've drilled
big holes and then they have these huge filters with
fans and they try to filter that air. But it's
it's tough man.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
All complaints sent to the county are forwarded to the AQMD.
In nearby neighborhood, several people we talked to didn't notice
any smell. Monica fent How has heard that from some
of her neighbors.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Some of them don't even notice it. I said, how
do you not notice it. It's so noticeable.
Speaker 8 (06:28):
It tends to be seasonal associated with an inversion layer
and the change in weather. And so what we're doing
to address that is use of the missing systems and
also the commercial fans with a neutralizer on it as well.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yeah, that's what they're gonna do. They're gonna bring big
fans and filters in there and try to filter that air.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
The landfill operators are waiting for permits to be issued
by the AQMD to put a system in place that
they say will help control the smell as well as
landfill gases in Irvine.
Speaker 7 (06:58):
Michelle Jeely CBSLA.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
You know what you can also do. You can go
to iq Air. I have an iq air machine at
home and it will take every odor. Once you close
your windows and doors, crank on the iq air, it
will be the best eight nine hundred bucks you've ever
spent in your life. I have the big one, the
(07:20):
health Pro two fifty, and it clears out of room.
It can wipe out even the most aggressive fast food
farts in the world. It can just wipe out. You
can literally have a guy smoking in the house and
in the next room you wouldn't even know.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
They should name that model the Tim Conway.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Junior's that right? Yeah, that's right?
Speaker 4 (07:42):
Yeah, right, Like how Frank Bowerman got the landfill named.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
After exactly right, Yeah, the IQ farterer, the Conway IQ
for fart neutralizer.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
So the landfill he was named after. Professor Frank R. Bowerman,
former Director of Environmental Engineering for those USC and former
president of the American Academy of Environmental Engineers. He was
also a technical consultant on the movie Soilent Green. And
it is one of the largest landfills in California and
(08:13):
the ninth largest in the US.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Why is it so close to homes? Like he said?
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Yeah, and it contains an estimated thirty one million tons
of waste.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Wow, is that right? They're gonna have to dig all
that stuff up. I think that'll be easy. Thirty one
million tons. Yeah, let's bring out the calculator here, all right,
let's do quick calculation here. Thirty one million tons, thirty
one million. Multiply that by two thousand, and you're going
(08:44):
to get six point sixty two billion pounds of trash.
Sixty two billion pounds of trash. Where are you going
to move that? That is a hell of a lot.
Sixty two billion pounds, that's unbelievable. Well, they'll take care
(09:05):
of it though. Irvine is very proactive when people start complaining.
So just stand by. That'll be going by Tomork.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Hey, it's Gary and Shannon and I have to admit
the Tim Conway Junior Show is the gold standard. We
are just the warm up acts. Absolutely. Gary.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
If you think our show is good, wait till you
hear Tim's.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
It's the main event. Don't miss the next episode of
the Tim Conway Junior Show from four to seven pm
right here on KFI AM six forty. It's very nice
of those kids, those young kids in the mid days.
Shannon is twenty nine, Gary I think is older. I
think Gary's thirty one. Young kids, they're like babies. Baby's
(09:53):
doing a radio show. Yeah, Dean sharpers with us. Dean,
how you Bob?
Speaker 10 (09:59):
I detected a of sarcasm in their voice though there
was just a tone. They had a tone. I'm saying
I'm tone deaf with that kind of stuff. They had
an I'm good.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
We just talked about the landfill in Irvine and some
of the odor is creeping over some of the homes.
And you're not going to believe this. There are sixty
two billion pounds of trash in that Irvine landfill. That's
equivalent to eighty four Empire State buildings or two hundred
(10:28):
and eighty one aircraft carriers. Yeah, that's a lot of trash. Well,
you know what I mean, you're talking to a landfill expert.
Oh is that right?
Speaker 10 (10:36):
I grew up in one Okay, all right, I didn't
know that. I grew up inside Shoal Canyon landfill.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Wow.
Speaker 10 (10:44):
Where is that top of FIGUREO at the one thirty
four freeway right there, right there, right on the edge
ego rock capacity?
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I R.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah, and that's still an active one, isn't it. I
think I still see cars in that area, and yeah,
it is, it is.
Speaker 10 (10:57):
They said they I don't know how many years they
have left before they're done, but it's it's getting there.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, it's amazing how close you know, houses and condos
now have come to these landfills.
Speaker 10 (11:09):
Oh yeah, yeah, you know we're not supposed to be
building them directly on them, that's right, but they do it.
I mean, but we can get close, you can get close,
and sometimes they do sometimes. You know, the Supulvita Pass
landfill used to be there called Mission Canyon. Yes, they
built some homes on that landfill as well, but we're
supposed to be just reserving it for golf courses and
baseball fields and stuff.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
But it has to do with your with your topic today,
because you know, you have to really investigate before you
build a house. You know where what the land is
sitting on. And that's a big deal. Yeah, it's a
big deal.
Speaker 10 (11:44):
It's a big deal if you're planning on really transforming
your home. That's what we're gonna be talking about on Sunday, Sunday,
the big show on Sunday. It's going to be the
second installment. Back on the fourth of January, I did
the first installment for this year of how to Design
Like a House Whisper. And you know what, I'm just
giving away all the tricks. Man, if I was a
magician at the Magic Castle, they would have kicked me
(12:06):
out by now, right. I'm giving away all the secrets.
I'm like that guy in the mask who's showing you
how the tricks are done. But they're not tricks. They're
really important design principles for everybody's home, and this week
we're talking about orientation and situation, meaning the very fundamental
thing you need to understand first about your house that
surprisingly a lot of homeowners don't is to to really
(12:29):
just take a look at the property, where the property
is sitting, everything that's going on in the property. What's
the contours of the property, is it flat, what kind
of view do we have, What direction is the house facing.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
That's I think that's really important, especially in California, you
know where the sun is going in the winter, in
the summer, and the direction of the house. I think
it's huge.
Speaker 10 (12:50):
Absolutely, it's it's it's a it's of major importance. And
I'll tell you why because well, I'll say this, it's
a it's of major importance to eight percent of the
people who are listening right now, because most of us
live in a you know, tracked home, in other words,
a home that was not designed for that piece of property.
(13:11):
If you live in a housing tract of any kind whatsoever.
Even the old ones are dating back into the you know, thirties,
even the twenties. Uh, those houses were designed with you know,
the whole track maybe four floor plans, and they have
clever ways of disguising it. Right, you take four floor
plans and you're gonna give each one a different you know,
maybe four different looks on the front, four different facades.
(13:34):
So that's four times four. Now looks like you got
sixteen different houses on the track. And then you're gonna
take that floor plan. You're gonna flip it, you know, backwards,
and so that doubles it. So now it looks like
we got thirty two different houses in the track, when
in reality we got four. And those four are sitting
north south, east west. Sometimes they're sitting at the end
(13:55):
of cul de sacs. Sometimes they're soldiered in on a
straight street. The point is the win windows and door
locations don't change. They're fixed. They don't customize those to
the lot that you're sitting on. And so one of
the big weaknesses of a tract home that can become
your greatest tool of leveraging an awesome home is to
(14:17):
readjust windows, doors, views vista to the lot that you're
actually sitting on. And man, what a massive, massive difference
that makes. But you got to start with just being
a really good observer in figuring out where does the
sun come up? Where does it go down? And by that,
I don't mean you know, we all know the sun
rises in the east and saints in the west. But
(14:40):
on your property, where is it? Where is it during
the day? You know, the sun changes its position from
winter to summer by about forty plus degrees in the
sky here in southern California, at least, all of these
things are things to know about what's going on with
your home.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
You know, it's interesting you say that because my wife
is from Oregon and we and she's way out in
the boondocks, and there are people who own twenty thirty
forty acres out there. And if you have a twenty
acre property, your house is always facing the perfect direction.
And they all are up there, they're all beautifully built
(15:17):
and all facing the right direction. But you can't do
that in the city. Nope, no you can't. But I
love making adjustments with windows and doors. Yeah, now, what
house and what direction is your house facing?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Okay, our house is facing The front door is almost
exactly due east. You're right, you're absolutely I'm looking at
it right now. Is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 10 (15:35):
Okay, are you popped in? I popped your address into
Google Earth. I'm hovering the satellite over your home right now. Yeah,
you're right, you're due east.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Yeah. But you know, the problem is we don't have
many windows on the south side of the house, and
that's where all the sun is, so it's pretty dark inside.
I gotta do something about that. That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 10 (15:54):
That it looks like your house appears a couple other times,
you know, in the neighborhood facing dest like they are
having a completely different experience of sunlight inside those houses.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, they're exactly right. Yeah, but you can do that.
I remember. One of the great things I've learned from
you is that a door is I mean, a window
is always a door.
Speaker 10 (16:16):
Yeah. We talked about that, I think just a couple
of weeks ago. That when the house is first framed up,
the header that goes across and the king studs what
we call them, the main studs that go down on
the side of that headder, they run all the way
down to the bottom plate of the wall, just like
any door, and then that little bit of wall gets
filled in in between after the fact, before we set
the window in place. The point is, every window is
(16:39):
structurally a door and can become a door if you've
got the opportunity to make it one, which means doubling
the amount of glass that's and the amount of light
that's coming into any given room. It's a great idea.
And even if you have those what are those mini
porches call where they're like four inches, Ah, we're talking
about like a if you got a second story home,
(17:00):
can do the same thing there.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
It's a very European thing.
Speaker 10 (17:02):
You could put a sliding glass door in where you
got a window, as long as you add a Juliet
balcony Julie called the French balcony, which is just you know,
an iron railing that bolts onto the house. And you
know it doesn't be there's no balcony. It comes out
like four six inches. But the point is it's completely
code safe to have all that glass there coming all
the way down to the floor.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
You know.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
I love the Juliet patios. I think that's a really
you know, a European thing, and it gives a house
a really special lob it does.
Speaker 10 (17:31):
It's a real sexy look and man, does it change
the interior of those rooms.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
And you can do that, like let's say you have
a nine foot. You know, double window. You can take
that out and put a sliding glass door in there
pretty quickly. Hunh you can, indeed, yeah, And that really
does enhance up at that That doubles the value of
that room. You know, to have that, you know, instead
of one sliding glass door facing south, you have another
(17:56):
one facing north and you can open up and get
the breeze in there. I think that really a tremendous
adds a tremendous value, especially visually to that room. It is.
Speaker 10 (18:04):
It's not a value that you can just measure in
terms of you know, most people think very kind of
in brutish terms of like, well, you know, my house
is only worth so much a square foot If I
want to expand the value of the house, I'm going
to have to, you know, expand the square footage. No no, no,
you expand the quality of the space, and your your
ROI goes right up. But more important than the ROI,
(18:24):
you know, I deal with people who want to stay
in their homes. It radically transforms the value of the house.
Having light come in from hundred more than one source
and fill the room softly. And by the way, southern
light is great, but northern light anytime we can open
up apertures by which I mean you know, windows, and
make them larger on the north side of the house.
(18:45):
That's critical because northern light is always indirect, right, you'd
never because the sun for us is always slightly in
the southern sky. So nobody ever has a northern facing
window that ever gets direct sunlight in its right. But
that's beautiful light. I mean, it's beautiful light. It's just
not powerful light. So you got to open up the
wall more to let more of it in.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
All right, we'll come back. I want to ask your
opinion on skylights. Get what you I feel about those.
All right, we're live. It's a Conway show. Dean charts
with us every single Saturday six to eight am on
KFI and then Sunday nine am until noon. And he'll
be talking this week about designing like a house whisper,
giving away all the secrets, all the tricks.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Tom Jones's right. Tom Jones right always always reminds me
of Dean Sharp, the Tom Jones of KFI, and he's
with us. Huge compliment you know, women throwing their underpaying I.
Speaker 10 (19:49):
Remember Tom Jones when he had his show. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm totally dating myself now. But man, you know what,
I was a very very young kid and I thought
that guy's the bomb, right yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
And he was for a long time. Still is, you know,
still kicking ass. Hey, I know you love light in homes,
especially You're right that northern light. None of us really
get a direct, you know, punch of that northern light
because it's only out there for a couple of weeks
before it starts to head back south. But what do
you think about skylights to add lighting to home? I
(20:20):
love skylights, you love them. I love them. Just don't
bring up those little solo tube things. Oh yeah, you've
got a fan. We've got two of those. I hate those,
you know what.
Speaker 10 (20:29):
Okay, Fine, if you're gonna you've got to bring it
into like a closet somewhere, that's fine. I'm not gonna.
I'm not gonna, you know, make a big deal about it. Fine,
but you got some natural light coming into a little closet.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
That's fine.
Speaker 10 (20:42):
Down the hallway and we're into a main room. New No,
I don't like all them ceiling portholes. They're like, they're
like these bright headlights up on the no and they
always fill with a prop with bugs and flies and crap.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Yeah, I just want to do I just.
Speaker 10 (20:56):
Want to do a proper skylight for you, you know.
And uh and and skylights are great and a lot
of people are scared of them because they're like, no,
it's gonna leak, and like, no, you know what, I've
been doing this for a long time now and we
have never, ever, ever in my career installed they the
skylight that ever leaked.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Oh that's great. I'll tell you a quick story. My
mom had redesigned the kitchen and she put two massive,
massive skylights in the kitchen. Huge. I mean that must
have been like twelve feet by six feet. I mean
it's just gigantic. And the first time it rained in January,
my brother and I threw two cups of water from
(21:35):
the from inside up at the skylight and then ran
up and we were like nine or ten and then
ran up. I go, mo, mo, these things are leaking.
She'll slipped the hell out. She's got on the phone
right away.
Speaker 11 (21:47):
I like no, no, no, no, no, we're just there's
a joke. There's a joke or kidding her place. Please
don't rip that guy a new ale. But they really
a nice skylight is beautiful. But I think you have
to have it frosted or else somebody's going to be
up there cleaning it all the time.
Speaker 10 (22:03):
Yeah, you know, Okay, there's a couple of ways of
going about doing this too. You can order it frosted
and it's still even the frosted ones are going to
show the dirt eventually. Oh here's what I like to do.
I like to put the skylight up and you got
this nice skylight shaft coming down. So we come down
about six eight inches, depending on how much room we've got,
maybe we've come down a foot below the skylight, okay,
(22:27):
and we will run a piece of molding, maybe a
piece of crown molding or something like that, inside the
skylight shaft and then set on top of that a
panel of decorative glass. Oh that's a great idea. So
you look up and when I say decorative, I don't
mean the frosted glass. I mean you know something that's
rippled or water glass or ice chip glass, something that
(22:49):
just basically you know, it's clear, but it breaks up
your vision. And you never see how dirty your skylight is,
nor do you ever care. That's a great idea.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
So the light, then the glass above it, you know
that's exposed to the roof, is clear. And then you
put the frosted glass below that. Yeah, frosted or some
kind of treated glass below that. And also it gives
you the opportunity you can mount a light up above
that panel that I was telling you about and turn
it on at night, and so you still got light
coming in through your skylight at night. I got a
(23:20):
quick question for you when you and I. I'm a
little older than you, but when we were in school,
a lot of glass in the school had you know,
it was thick glass and then it had wires running
through it at angles. What was the reason behind that.
It's safety glass. It was their idea of safety glass
back then. And so you had like that chicken wire
sandwich back between the glass so that if it got busted, okay,
(23:43):
then the glass was not going to break apart in
big shards all over the floor and hurt somebody. It
was basically that wire is going to hang on to
that glass. It's two panes of glass that that wire
is is sandwiched in between ic and they're glued together,
and so the idea is the wire hangs onto it. Nowadays,
we don't do that anymore. We just temper those that
(24:04):
glass and then it breaks like a windshield.
Speaker 10 (24:05):
Now, if if it breaks at all, I mean, you
gotta you gotta break tempered glass on the edge that
you can't get to in a window to really I
mean you gotta do a serious, serious hit on a
piece of tempered glass to shatter it.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
And you know what some people do is if they
don't want to replace the whole glass with tempered they'll
put a film over it that's also protect it. But
that that really doesn't work either.
Speaker 10 (24:28):
Well i'll tell you what I mean. It doesn't work
in terms of security, okay, But I'll tell you what.
If you're in a situation where you get like, you know,
you're up against the the wildlife urban interface and people
are telling you you gotta you gotta get new you know,
fire rated windows, which means changing out those windows to
tempered glass. What you can do is you could put
(24:48):
there's a three M fire rated film that you can
put on the inside, and what it does that glass
when the fire comes up to it's gonna shatter, okay,
because the fire is gonna is gonna overheat that annealed
and it's gonna shatter. But the film will hold the
glass shards in place so the flames won't come in
the house.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Oh that's great. That's a great that's a great tip. Yeah,
especially nowadays when everyone's so worried about fire. Okay, So
this weekend big reveal of all the secrets on how
to design a home like you like the house Whisper.
Speaker 10 (25:23):
Yeah, we're gonna be talking about how to walk through
your property in your house and actually start to see
where the real needs are.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
The Olympics have officially started. The US women's hockey team
has already played their first game. Spoiler alert. If you
don't want the score, I'm giving it to you in
five seconds four three two one. Hayley Skimura she's one
of the stars of that team. Scored twice, and the
US opened up the Milan Cortina Games Women's hockey tournament
(26:15):
with a five to one victory five to one over
Chechcha Checha, Checha, bitches, it's the old Czech Republic chechcha
and c z e c h i a checha. On Thursday,
Alex Campbell had a goal and assist, while Captain Hillary
(26:39):
Knight and Joy Dunn also scored in the Americans opener.
There they improved to eight over over the chech Nias,
the chech chechas ch e whatever. Anyway, they beat him
five to one. So Layla Edwards head an assist, becoming
(26:59):
the first black female to represent America in hockey at
the Olympics. What took so long? Girls, Everybody's been doing
that for a little quite a while here in the US.
But so that's a cool deal. The Vice President was
there along with let's see here, yeah, Vice President jd
(27:20):
Vance was there. Secretary of State Marco Rubio was also there.
They arrived twelve minutes into the game, had departed just
six minutes with six minutes remaining. The large delegation included
USA Hockey officials and a security detail. So it's going
to be a coo Olympics. I think the Americans are
(27:40):
going to win gold in women's hockey. They usually do,
all right. Trader Joe's. That's where everyone's turning to save money.
So you want to save money and groceries. Trader Joe's
is the move, the search for affordability. Later Trader Joe's
Low Budget Edition.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
The Love of a good Snack, some really boogy snacks
that Trader joe and.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
Viral toats, propelling a new grocery chain to the top.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Spot, Trader Joe's.
Speaker 5 (28:05):
Trader Joe's and many shoppers aren't surprised that Trader Joe's
has been named the number one grocery store in the
country according to a new national Customer Satisfaction survey, beating
out competitors like Publics, Costco and Whole Foods.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Everything in that ass as like a vegetarian.
Speaker 10 (28:21):
It gives me a good alternative and I'm not paying
twenty dollars for a salon.
Speaker 11 (28:24):
You walk ten blocks because I love the selection and quality.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I like the food. I like the prices because I
love the selection and quality.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
So what makes Trader Joe's stand out in a crowded field.
Some analysts point to accessible prices and a shopping experience
that appeals to all in this ca shaped economy.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
There you go, so uh buzz on out there to
Trader Joe's. Remember that crime two weeks ago where these nine,
these nine kids robbed and broke into a jewelry store.
I think it was the Anaheim Hills area. I think
it was called Classic Jewelers. Well, they just caught the
last of these lads, So all nine suspects have been arrested.
(29:07):
And I've been telling you for almost thirty years, do
not commit these type of crimes in Orange County. They've
got a lot of equipment, they've got a lot of
time on their hands, and they will find you and
they will punish you to the max. It's suicide to
rip off Orange County restaurants or stores. They will find you.
Speaker 7 (29:30):
Eighteen being taken into custody.
Speaker 12 (29:33):
He's only seventeen years old, but according to Anaheim police,
he was part of a group of thieves who violently
robbed this store that you see behind.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
He's seventeen years old, already has a long rap sheet
and got caught for doing this. After stealing a car.
I think it was last year behind.
Speaker 12 (29:50):
Me, stealing nearly a million dollars worse than jewelry.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
He's seventeen years old, part of this big group of
nine guys that were stealing and robbing this store. Seventeen
years old.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
This video racking up hundreds of thousands of views on
social media. Bystanders believed they were witnessing an ICE operation,
but Anaheim Police confirming to NBC four that this was
their arrest on January thirty at a Round two point
(30:23):
fifteen in Lynnwood of a dangerous criminal.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
The last guy, the last of the Great Mohicans gone.
Speaker 8 (30:30):
This was not immigration enforcement, There were no federal agencies involved.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
This was strictly Anaheim Police Department.
Speaker 12 (30:36):
We blurred the face of the person being arrested because
police say he's just seventeen years old. According to Anaheim PD,
he was part of this jewelry heist.
Speaker 7 (30:45):
On January twenty.
Speaker 12 (30:46):
Third, nine thieves plowed into Classic Jewelers in Anaheim Hills
in the middle of the day and then ransacked the store,
stealing about seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars in jewelry.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
And they both left in sports cars. All all nine
left in sports cars. Both of those cars crashed and
without the cops pursuing them. They were just driving too fast,
they were over excited about their loot and they both crashed. Crazy.
So don't commit crimes like this in Orange County you
will be caught. Lou Penrose coming up next right here
(31:22):
on KFI AM six forty Conway Show on demand on
the iHeartRadio app. Now you can always hear us live
on KFI AM six forty four to seven pm Monday
through Friday, and anytime on demand on the iHeart Radio
app
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Did anyone get
Dave's Hot Chicken? Do you get the email today about
Dave's Hot Chicken coming in? Did you get any Steffansh?
I definitely did not. Did you get the email? Nope,
I got it. Did you get Dave's Hot?
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Why am I always looked down at the Yeah? I
know you should be definitely on top of that list priority.
Do you get any croach you go to Dave's Hot No,
it was a little before I got here. It was
at ten thirty or ten forty five this morning, and
it was yesterday? Was it yesterday? Was supposed to be.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Originally Tuesday, and then something happened and they made it yesterday,
And then.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Yeah, I was going to commit. I love Dave's Hot
I go to the one in Burbank at the Empire Center,
and my daughter likes that too, So we go and
have Dave's Hot Chicken. It's pretty good.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Plus plus they put it by the PD's office in
the FM's upstairs.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
And I, yeah, I don't like going up there. Yeah right,
people got a stink, but it is good chicken. That
Dave's Hot. They have one out near you in Claremont.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Yes, yes, there's a Dave's. There's a Clydes. There's a
couple of hot chicken places. Yeah, a lot of hot
chicken plates that popped up. But I heard something about
that Dave's Hot Chicken, like once some kind of a
ward or something that Dave's there is the one that's
down that's downtown, that was like the best restaurant for years. Yeah,
I got nominated for something that another hot Chicken. I
(01:29):
think that was like another one like Frank's or something.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
May have been, but that Dave's Hot. My move is
no spice at all. I go naked and then I
put Franks on.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Howland Raves Holland raised.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
That's the one that every knows, But that Dave's Hot Chicken.
They cook it when you get there. The fries are unbelievable.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
I think Dave's is probably the biggest one of those
hot chicken places.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
It used to be a Greek place and at the
Empire Center, and then that the great Greek moved on
and replaced with Dave's Hot Chicken. Belly. Do you like
Dave's Hot chicken.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
I do.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Actually, that's something you'll eat. Oh yeah, John, eat that?
Oh yes, Hey. What is the smell going on in Irvine?
Is there a big landfill problem? Can you smell it
at your place?
Speaker 5 (02:18):
No?
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Luckily no, it's more up northwest of up Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
I will say this though, if once Irvine knows that
that problem exists, they will put every man and woman
possible in that city on that case until it's resolved.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
The residents will love to hear that.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
They will do that. Irvine does not f around when
residents complain. When they complain, they listen to complaints, they
write them down, and then they get their best people
on it. I know that for a fact. But there's
a problem going on in Irvine that will be solved
shortly because it's getting some attention.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
We cannot open the windows, we can't open the sliding
or because the smell is so so bad.
Speaker 6 (03:03):
Irvine resident Monica Fontau says the odor from a nearby
landfill comes early in the morning and at night and
during Santa Ana wind conditions.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Oh that's a lot of time. Every morning, every night,
and sant Ana wins. Seems like every day.
Speaker 6 (03:18):
The South Coast air quality Management District has slapped three
violations on the Frank Bowerman Landfill, which is owned and operated.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
By what's the landfill called?
Speaker 7 (03:27):
It's on the Frank Barerman Landfill.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Frank Bowerman Landfill.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
Frank Barwerman Landfill.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Where who are they naming landfills after? Is there a
you're gonna want one? Yeah, I definitely want one, the
ding Dong Landfill.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Ding Dong land Ding a dog?
Speaker 1 (03:44):
But who's okaying that? You know? You want the Bellio Landfill?
Speaker 4 (03:48):
No, no good?
Speaker 1 (03:50):
How do they pick the name? Is this like a
land a triple murder?
Speaker 7 (03:54):
That's his name again, Frank Berman.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Land Frank Bowerman. Did he wipe out some I don't know,
a restaurant and killed twenty people? So they named a
landfill after I don't know. How do you How do
you name a landfill after? That's you name it after somebody?
Speaker 8 (04:08):
Good?
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Or yeah? Right? At criminal? It's got a funk to them,
that's right.
Speaker 6 (04:12):
Frank Bowerman Landfill, which is owned and operated by the
County of Orange.
Speaker 7 (04:16):
The AQMD says it's in.
Speaker 6 (04:18):
Response to complaints from the community about sour garbage type odors.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
It's almost like you open up your trash and the
smell comes out, but it's permeating all throughout there. You
can't escape it. If you go to Woodbury Town Center,
you're smelling it.
Speaker 7 (04:33):
It's everywhere.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Oh, they tried to change into Woodbury. Well you're smelling Woodbury's.
Now you're not. You're smelling diapers.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
If you go to Woodbury Town Center, you're smelling it.
It's everywhere.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Oh, they got to do something about it. They will.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Fontau lives in the Portola Springs community, a couple of
miles from the.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Land God, every Dame sounds so beautiful down there. Portola
Springs lives.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
In the Portola Springs community, a couple of miles from
the landfill. Homes are being built around the solid waste
stump that opened more than three decades ago.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Okay, well that'll be fun.
Speaker 6 (05:03):
Landfill director Tom Katrullis says the county will comply with
the AQMD regarding the complaints.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
This landfill was built and established back in nineteen ninety
and back then we didn't have residence, but now we do.
So we're doing everything we possibly can to mitigate any
impact associated with our ongoing operations.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
I like this guy. He's pissed. You can tell he's angry.
He's got a lot of complaints. And now this idiot
Kafi is doing the story. You can hear it in
his voice.
Speaker 8 (05:30):
This landfill was built and established back in nineteen ninety
and back then we didn't have residence.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
That's right. We do have you people around, Bellio, around
his brother, husband, crazy dogs.
Speaker 8 (05:42):
And back then we didn't have residence, but now we do.
So we're doing everything we possibly can to mitigate any
impact associated with our ongoing operation.
Speaker 7 (05:50):
Stop complaining, Katrillis says.
Speaker 6 (05:52):
Drones are being used to monitor and manage odors and
landfill gases emitted from the buried trash.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I don't know what you do mean, and I think
what in the past, what they've done is they've drilled
big holes and then they have these huge filters with
fans and they try to filter that air. But it's
it's tough man.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
All complaints sent to the county are forwarded to the AQMD.
In nearby neighborhood, several people we talked to didn't notice
any smell. Monica fent How has heard that from some
of her neighbors.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Some of them don't even notice it. I said, how
do you not notice it. It's so noticeable.
Speaker 8 (06:28):
It tends to be seasonal associated with an inversion layer
and the change in weather. And so what we're doing
to address that is use of the missing systems and
also the commercial fans with a neutralizer on it as well.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yeah, that's what they're gonna do. They're gonna bring big
fans and filters in there and try to filter that air.
Speaker 6 (06:47):
The landfill operators are waiting for permits to be issued
by the AQMD to put a system in place that
they say will help control the smell as well as
landfill gases in Irvine.
Speaker 7 (06:58):
Michelle Jeely CBSLA.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
You know what you can also do. You can go
to iq Air. I have an iq air machine at
home and it will take every odor. Once you close
your windows and doors, crank on the iq air, it
will be the best eight nine hundred bucks you've ever
spent in your life. I have the big one, the
(07:20):
health Pro two fifty, and it clears out of room.
It can wipe out even the most aggressive fast food
farts in the world. It can just wipe out. You
can literally have a guy smoking in the house and
in the next room you wouldn't even know.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
They should name that model the Tim Conway.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Junior's that right? Yeah, that's right?
Speaker 4 (07:42):
Yeah, right, Like how Frank Bowerman got the landfill named.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
After exactly right, Yeah, the IQ farterer, the Conway IQ
for fart neutralizer.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
So the landfill he was named after. Professor Frank R. Bowerman,
former Director of Environmental Engineering for those USC and former
president of the American Academy of Environmental Engineers. He was
also a technical consultant on the movie Soilent Green. And
it is one of the largest landfills in California and
(08:13):
the ninth largest in the US.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Why is it so close to homes? Like he said?
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Yeah, and it contains an estimated thirty one million tons
of waste.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Wow, is that right? They're gonna have to dig all
that stuff up. I think that'll be easy. Thirty one
million tons. Yeah, let's bring out the calculator here, all right,
let's do quick calculation here. Thirty one million tons, thirty
one million. Multiply that by two thousand, and you're going
(08:44):
to get six point sixty two billion pounds of trash.
Sixty two billion pounds of trash. Where are you going
to move that? That is a hell of a lot.
Sixty two billion pounds, that's unbelievable. Well, they'll take care
(09:05):
of it though. Irvine is very proactive when people start complaining.
So just stand by. That'll be going by Tomork.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Hey, it's Gary and Shannon and I have to admit
the Tim Conway Junior Show is the gold standard. We
are just the warm up acts. Absolutely. Gary.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
If you think our show is good, wait till you
hear Tim's.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
It's the main event. Don't miss the next episode of
the Tim Conway Junior Show from four to seven pm
right here on KFI AM six forty. It's very nice
of those kids, those young kids in the mid days.
Shannon is twenty nine, Gary I think is older. I
think Gary's thirty one. Young kids, they're like babies. Baby's
(09:53):
doing a radio show. Yeah, Dean sharpers with us. Dean,
how you Bob?
Speaker 10 (09:59):
I detected a of sarcasm in their voice though there
was just a tone. They had a tone. I'm saying
I'm tone deaf with that kind of stuff. They had
an I'm good.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
We just talked about the landfill in Irvine and some
of the odor is creeping over some of the homes.
And you're not going to believe this. There are sixty
two billion pounds of trash in that Irvine landfill. That's
equivalent to eighty four Empire State buildings or two hundred
(10:28):
and eighty one aircraft carriers. Yeah, that's a lot of trash. Well,
you know what I mean, you're talking to a landfill expert.
Oh is that right?
Speaker 10 (10:36):
I grew up in one Okay, all right, I didn't
know that. I grew up inside Shoal Canyon landfill.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Wow.
Speaker 10 (10:44):
Where is that top of FIGUREO at the one thirty
four freeway right there, right there, right on the edge
ego rock capacity?
Speaker 5 (10:52):
I R.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah, and that's still an active one, isn't it. I
think I still see cars in that area, and yeah,
it is, it is.
Speaker 10 (10:57):
They said they I don't know how many years they
have left before they're done, but it's it's getting there.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, it's amazing how close you know, houses and condos
now have come to these landfills.
Speaker 10 (11:09):
Oh yeah, yeah, you know we're not supposed to be
building them directly on them, that's right, but they do it.
I mean, but we can get close, you can get close,
and sometimes they do sometimes. You know, the Supulvita Pass
landfill used to be there called Mission Canyon. Yes, they
built some homes on that landfill as well, but we're
supposed to be just reserving it for golf courses and
baseball fields and stuff.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
But it has to do with your with your topic today,
because you know, you have to really investigate before you
build a house. You know where what the land is
sitting on. And that's a big deal. Yeah, it's a
big deal.
Speaker 10 (11:44):
It's a big deal if you're planning on really transforming
your home. That's what we're gonna be talking about on Sunday, Sunday,
the big show on Sunday. It's going to be the
second installment. Back on the fourth of January, I did
the first installment for this year of how to Design
Like a House Whisper. And you know what, I'm just
giving away all the tricks. Man, if I was a
magician at the Magic Castle, they would have kicked me
(12:06):
out by now, right. I'm giving away all the secrets.
I'm like that guy in the mask who's showing you
how the tricks are done. But they're not tricks. They're
really important design principles for everybody's home, and this week
we're talking about orientation and situation, meaning the very fundamental
thing you need to understand first about your house that
surprisingly a lot of homeowners don't is to to really
(12:29):
just take a look at the property, where the property
is sitting, everything that's going on in the property. What's
the contours of the property, is it flat, what kind
of view do we have, What direction is the house facing.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
That's I think that's really important, especially in California, you
know where the sun is going in the winter, in
the summer, and the direction of the house. I think
it's huge.
Speaker 10 (12:50):
Absolutely, it's it's it's a it's of major importance. And
I'll tell you why because well, I'll say this, it's
a it's of major importance to eight percent of the
people who are listening right now, because most of us
live in a you know, tracked home, in other words,
a home that was not designed for that piece of property.
(13:11):
If you live in a housing tract of any kind whatsoever.
Even the old ones are dating back into the you know, thirties,
even the twenties. Uh, those houses were designed with you know,
the whole track maybe four floor plans, and they have
clever ways of disguising it. Right, you take four floor
plans and you're gonna give each one a different you know,
maybe four different looks on the front, four different facades.
(13:34):
So that's four times four. Now looks like you got
sixteen different houses on the track. And then you're gonna
take that floor plan. You're gonna flip it, you know, backwards,
and so that doubles it. So now it looks like
we got thirty two different houses in the track, when
in reality we got four. And those four are sitting
north south, east west. Sometimes they're sitting at the end
(13:55):
of cul de sacs. Sometimes they're soldiered in on a
straight street. The point is the win windows and door
locations don't change. They're fixed. They don't customize those to
the lot that you're sitting on. And so one of
the big weaknesses of a tract home that can become
your greatest tool of leveraging an awesome home is to
(14:17):
readjust windows, doors, views vista to the lot that you're
actually sitting on. And man, what a massive, massive difference
that makes. But you got to start with just being
a really good observer in figuring out where does the
sun come up? Where does it go down? And by that,
I don't mean you know, we all know the sun
rises in the east and saints in the west. But
(14:40):
on your property, where is it? Where is it during
the day? You know, the sun changes its position from
winter to summer by about forty plus degrees in the
sky here in southern California, at least, all of these
things are things to know about what's going on with
your home.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
You know, it's interesting you say that because my wife
is from Oregon and we and she's way out in
the boondocks, and there are people who own twenty thirty
forty acres out there. And if you have a twenty
acre property, your house is always facing the perfect direction.
And they all are up there, they're all beautifully built
(15:17):
and all facing the right direction. But you can't do
that in the city. Nope, no you can't. But I
love making adjustments with windows and doors. Yeah, now, what
house and what direction is your house facing?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Okay, our house is facing The front door is almost
exactly due east. You're right, you're absolutely I'm looking at
it right now. Is that right? Yeah?
Speaker 10 (15:35):
Okay, are you popped in? I popped your address into
Google Earth. I'm hovering the satellite over your home right now. Yeah,
you're right, you're due east.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Yeah. But you know, the problem is we don't have
many windows on the south side of the house, and
that's where all the sun is, so it's pretty dark inside.
I gotta do something about that. That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 10 (15:54):
That it looks like your house appears a couple other times,
you know, in the neighborhood facing dest like they are
having a completely different experience of sunlight inside those houses.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, they're exactly right. Yeah, but you can do that.
I remember. One of the great things I've learned from
you is that a door is I mean, a window
is always a door.
Speaker 10 (16:16):
Yeah. We talked about that, I think just a couple
of weeks ago. That when the house is first framed up,
the header that goes across and the king studs what
we call them, the main studs that go down on
the side of that headder, they run all the way
down to the bottom plate of the wall, just like
any door, and then that little bit of wall gets
filled in in between after the fact, before we set
the window in place. The point is, every window is
(16:39):
structurally a door and can become a door if you've
got the opportunity to make it one, which means doubling
the amount of glass that's and the amount of light
that's coming into any given room. It's a great idea.
And even if you have those what are those mini
porches call where they're like four inches, Ah, we're talking
about like a if you got a second story home,
(17:00):
can do the same thing there.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
It's a very European thing.
Speaker 10 (17:02):
You could put a sliding glass door in where you
got a window, as long as you add a Juliet
balcony Julie called the French balcony, which is just you know,
an iron railing that bolts onto the house. And you
know it doesn't be there's no balcony. It comes out
like four six inches. But the point is it's completely
code safe to have all that glass there coming all
the way down to the floor.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
You know.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
I love the Juliet patios. I think that's a really
you know, a European thing, and it gives a house
a really special lob it does.
Speaker 10 (17:31):
It's a real sexy look and man, does it change
the interior of those rooms.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
And you can do that, like let's say you have
a nine foot. You know, double window. You can take
that out and put a sliding glass door in there
pretty quickly. Hunh you can, indeed, yeah, And that really
does enhance up at that That doubles the value of
that room. You know, to have that, you know, instead
of one sliding glass door facing south, you have another
(17:56):
one facing north and you can open up and get
the breeze in there. I think that really a tremendous
adds a tremendous value, especially visually to that room. It is.
Speaker 10 (18:04):
It's not a value that you can just measure in
terms of you know, most people think very kind of
in brutish terms of like, well, you know, my house
is only worth so much a square foot If I
want to expand the value of the house, I'm going
to have to, you know, expand the square footage. No no, no,
you expand the quality of the space, and your your
ROI goes right up. But more important than the ROI,
(18:24):
you know, I deal with people who want to stay
in their homes. It radically transforms the value of the house.
Having light come in from hundred more than one source
and fill the room softly. And by the way, southern
light is great, but northern light anytime we can open
up apertures by which I mean you know, windows, and
make them larger on the north side of the house.
(18:45):
That's critical because northern light is always indirect, right, you'd
never because the sun for us is always slightly in
the southern sky. So nobody ever has a northern facing
window that ever gets direct sunlight in its right. But
that's beautiful light. I mean, it's beautiful light. It's just
not powerful light. So you got to open up the
wall more to let more of it in.
Speaker 1 (19:07):
All right, we'll come back. I want to ask your
opinion on skylights. Get what you I feel about those.
All right, we're live. It's a Conway show. Dean charts
with us every single Saturday six to eight am on
KFI and then Sunday nine am until noon. And he'll
be talking this week about designing like a house whisper,
giving away all the secrets, all the tricks.
Speaker 9 (19:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Tom Jones's right. Tom Jones right always always reminds me
of Dean Sharp, the Tom Jones of KFI, and he's
with us. Huge compliment you know, women throwing their underpaying I.
Speaker 10 (19:49):
Remember Tom Jones when he had his show. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm totally dating myself now. But man, you know what,
I was a very very young kid and I thought
that guy's the bomb, right yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
And he was for a long time. Still is, you know,
still kicking ass. Hey, I know you love light in homes,
especially You're right that northern light. None of us really
get a direct, you know, punch of that northern light
because it's only out there for a couple of weeks
before it starts to head back south. But what do
you think about skylights to add lighting to home? I
(20:20):
love skylights, you love them. I love them. Just don't
bring up those little solo tube things. Oh yeah, you've
got a fan. We've got two of those. I hate those,
you know what.
Speaker 10 (20:29):
Okay, Fine, if you're gonna you've got to bring it
into like a closet somewhere, that's fine. I'm not gonna.
I'm not gonna, you know, make a big deal about it. Fine,
but you got some natural light coming into a little closet.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
That's fine.
Speaker 10 (20:42):
Down the hallway and we're into a main room. New No,
I don't like all them ceiling portholes. They're like, they're
like these bright headlights up on the no and they
always fill with a prop with bugs and flies and crap.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Yeah, I just want to do I just.
Speaker 10 (20:56):
Want to do a proper skylight for you, you know.
And uh and and skylights are great and a lot
of people are scared of them because they're like, no,
it's gonna leak, and like, no, you know what, I've
been doing this for a long time now and we
have never, ever, ever in my career installed they the
skylight that ever leaked.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Oh that's great. I'll tell you a quick story. My
mom had redesigned the kitchen and she put two massive,
massive skylights in the kitchen. Huge. I mean that must
have been like twelve feet by six feet. I mean
it's just gigantic. And the first time it rained in January,
my brother and I threw two cups of water from
(21:35):
the from inside up at the skylight and then ran
up and we were like nine or ten and then
ran up. I go, mo, mo, these things are leaking.
She'll slipped the hell out. She's got on the phone
right away.
Speaker 11 (21:47):
I like no, no, no, no, no, we're just there's
a joke. There's a joke or kidding her place. Please
don't rip that guy a new ale. But they really
a nice skylight is beautiful. But I think you have
to have it frosted or else somebody's going to be
up there cleaning it all the time.
Speaker 10 (22:03):
Yeah, you know, Okay, there's a couple of ways of
going about doing this too. You can order it frosted
and it's still even the frosted ones are going to
show the dirt eventually. Oh here's what I like to do.
I like to put the skylight up and you got
this nice skylight shaft coming down. So we come down
about six eight inches, depending on how much room we've got,
maybe we've come down a foot below the skylight, okay,
(22:27):
and we will run a piece of molding, maybe a
piece of crown molding or something like that, inside the
skylight shaft and then set on top of that a
panel of decorative glass. Oh that's a great idea. So
you look up and when I say decorative, I don't
mean the frosted glass. I mean you know something that's
rippled or water glass or ice chip glass, something that
(22:49):
just basically you know, it's clear, but it breaks up
your vision. And you never see how dirty your skylight is,
nor do you ever care. That's a great idea.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
So the light, then the glass above it, you know
that's exposed to the roof, is clear. And then you
put the frosted glass below that. Yeah, frosted or some
kind of treated glass below that. And also it gives
you the opportunity you can mount a light up above
that panel that I was telling you about and turn
it on at night, and so you still got light
coming in through your skylight at night. I got a
(23:20):
quick question for you when you and I. I'm a
little older than you, but when we were in school,
a lot of glass in the school had you know,
it was thick glass and then it had wires running
through it at angles. What was the reason behind that.
It's safety glass. It was their idea of safety glass
back then. And so you had like that chicken wire
sandwich back between the glass so that if it got busted, okay,
(23:43):
then the glass was not going to break apart in
big shards all over the floor and hurt somebody. It
was basically that wire is going to hang on to
that glass. It's two panes of glass that that wire
is is sandwiched in between ic and they're glued together,
and so the idea is the wire hangs onto it. Nowadays,
we don't do that anymore. We just temper those that
(24:04):
glass and then it breaks like a windshield.
Speaker 10 (24:05):
Now, if if it breaks at all, I mean, you
gotta you gotta break tempered glass on the edge that
you can't get to in a window to really I
mean you gotta do a serious, serious hit on a
piece of tempered glass to shatter it.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
And you know what some people do is if they
don't want to replace the whole glass with tempered they'll
put a film over it that's also protect it. But
that that really doesn't work either.
Speaker 10 (24:28):
Well i'll tell you what I mean. It doesn't work
in terms of security, okay, But I'll tell you what.
If you're in a situation where you get like, you know,
you're up against the the wildlife urban interface and people
are telling you you gotta you gotta get new you know,
fire rated windows, which means changing out those windows to
tempered glass. What you can do is you could put
(24:48):
there's a three M fire rated film that you can
put on the inside, and what it does that glass
when the fire comes up to it's gonna shatter, okay,
because the fire is gonna is gonna overheat that annealed
and it's gonna shatter. But the film will hold the
glass shards in place so the flames won't come in
the house.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Oh that's great. That's a great that's a great tip. Yeah,
especially nowadays when everyone's so worried about fire. Okay, So
this weekend big reveal of all the secrets on how
to design a home like you like the house Whisper.
Speaker 10 (25:23):
Yeah, we're gonna be talking about how to walk through
your property in your house and actually start to see
where the real needs are.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Excellent, all right, I'll be listening. Thanks Man, Thanks Bud.
All right, Dean Sharp. Everybody ding dong with that guy
and listen to him every Saturday six to eight am
here on KFI and then Sunday nine am until noon.
Speaker 9 (25:43):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
The Olympics have officially started. The US women's hockey team
has already played their first game. Spoiler alert. If you
don't want the score, I'm giving it to you in
five seconds four three two one. Hayley Skimura she's one
of the stars of that team. Scored twice, and the
US opened up the Milan Cortina Games Women's hockey tournament
(26:15):
with a five to one victory five to one over
Chechcha Checha, Checha, bitches, it's the old Czech Republic chechcha
and c z e c h i a checha. On Thursday,
Alex Campbell had a goal and assist, while Captain Hillary
(26:39):
Knight and Joy Dunn also scored in the Americans opener.
There they improved to eight over over the chech Nias,
the chech chechas ch e whatever. Anyway, they beat him
five to one. So Layla Edwards head an assist, becoming
(26:59):
the first black female to represent America in hockey at
the Olympics. What took so long? Girls, Everybody's been doing
that for a little quite a while here in the US.
But so that's a cool deal. The Vice President was
there along with let's see here, yeah, Vice President jd
(27:20):
Vance was there. Secretary of State Marco Rubio was also there.
They arrived twelve minutes into the game, had departed just
six minutes with six minutes remaining. The large delegation included
USA Hockey officials and a security detail. So it's going
to be a coo Olympics. I think the Americans are
(27:40):
going to win gold in women's hockey. They usually do,
all right. Trader Joe's. That's where everyone's turning to save money.
So you want to save money and groceries. Trader Joe's
is the move, the search for affordability. Later Trader Joe's
Low Budget Edition.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
The Love of a good Snack, some really boogy snacks
that Trader joe and.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
Viral toats, propelling a new grocery chain to the top.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Spot, Trader Joe's.
Speaker 5 (28:05):
Trader Joe's and many shoppers aren't surprised that Trader Joe's
has been named the number one grocery store in the
country according to a new national Customer Satisfaction survey, beating
out competitors like Publics, Costco and Whole Foods.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
Everything in that ass as like a vegetarian.
Speaker 10 (28:21):
It gives me a good alternative and I'm not paying
twenty dollars for a salon.
Speaker 11 (28:24):
You walk ten blocks because I love the selection and quality.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
I like the food. I like the prices because I
love the selection and quality.
Speaker 5 (28:36):
So what makes Trader Joe's stand out in a crowded field.
Some analysts point to accessible prices and a shopping experience
that appeals to all in this ca shaped economy.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
There you go, so uh buzz on out there to
Trader Joe's. Remember that crime two weeks ago where these nine,
these nine kids robbed and broke into a jewelry store.
I think it was the Anaheim Hills area. I think
it was called Classic Jewelers. Well, they just caught the
last of these lads, So all nine suspects have been arrested.
(29:07):
And I've been telling you for almost thirty years, do
not commit these type of crimes in Orange County. They've
got a lot of equipment, they've got a lot of
time on their hands, and they will find you and
they will punish you to the max. It's suicide to
rip off Orange County restaurants or stores. They will find you.
Speaker 7 (29:30):
Eighteen being taken into custody.
Speaker 12 (29:33):
He's only seventeen years old, but according to Anaheim police,
he was part of a group of thieves who violently
robbed this store that you see behind.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
He's seventeen years old, already has a long rap sheet
and got caught for doing this. After stealing a car.
I think it was last year behind.
Speaker 12 (29:50):
Me, stealing nearly a million dollars worse than jewelry.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
He's seventeen years old, part of this big group of
nine guys that were stealing and robbing this store. Seventeen
years old.
Speaker 12 (30:03):
This video racking up hundreds of thousands of views on
social media. Bystanders believed they were witnessing an ICE operation,
but Anaheim Police confirming to NBC four that this was
their arrest on January thirty at a Round two point
(30:23):
fifteen in Lynnwood of a dangerous criminal.
Speaker 1 (30:26):
The last guy, the last of the Great Mohicans gone.
Speaker 8 (30:30):
This was not immigration enforcement, There were no federal agencies involved.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
This was strictly Anaheim Police Department.
Speaker 12 (30:36):
We blurred the face of the person being arrested because
police say he's just seventeen years old. According to Anaheim PD,
he was part of this jewelry heist.
Speaker 7 (30:45):
On January twenty.
Speaker 12 (30:46):
Third, nine thieves plowed into Classic Jewelers in Anaheim Hills
in the middle of the day and then ransacked the store,
stealing about seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars in jewelry.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
And they both left in sports cars. All all nine
left in sports cars. Both of those cars crashed and
without the cops pursuing them. They were just driving too fast,
they were over excited about their loot and they both crashed. Crazy.
So don't commit crimes like this in Orange County you
will be caught. Lou Penrose coming up next right here
