The hour kicks off with Ronnie Marmo, writer and star of “I’m Not a Comedian, I’m Lenny Bruce,” joining the show to talk about his powerful one-man performance honoring the legendary comic. Ronnie shares insight into portraying Lenny Bruce, the impact of the show, and details about the one-night-only performance this Sunday, January 18th at 2pm at the La Mirada Theatre.
The conversation then shifts to sports and culture as the crew celebrates the SDSU cheer team finishing second at Nationals, before diving into a spirited debate about airline etiquette — is there really a dress code for flying, and does seasonal wear on planes cross a line?
The hour wraps with a mix of sports and style, breaking down the NFL’s surprising move to have a fashion editor, followed by discussion of an ongoing college basketball illegal gambling scandal and what it could mean for the sport.
Theater, sports pride, plane fashion debates, and controversy — a wide-ranging and entertaining hour. 🎭✈️🏈

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's camp. I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. I
always busted Tom's balls. I used to say, whenever I
saw a like as sticker on a car, I always
stayed away because I knew that guy didn't have an insurance.
Just kidding, got almighty. I'm excited about this guest. Everybody,
(00:24):
all of my friends and family who have seen this
show says it's like seeing Lenny Bruce on stage. I'm
not a comedian, I'm Lenny Bruce. It ran for one
hundred and twenty five performances in Los Angeles over nine
months off Broadway, massive media attention, and it's it. You know,
very rarely you go to a play, do go to
performance and you and you when you leave, you're like, oh,
(00:47):
I saw Lenny Bruce, and that is who's what with this?
Right now? Ronnie Marmo is with us. Ronnie, how are you, sir?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I'm doing great, especially with that Metallica intro. I was like,
that's great, people, this is amazing, this is amazing.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Did you doing great? Did you write this or or
did you collaborate with somebody?
Speaker 3 (01:08):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I wrote this. I wrote this, and uh yeah, I
took about five years and I just kind of took
my time and finally put it up and just you know,
showed it to Joe Montga, my great director and h
and I read it for him and he said, Okay,
this is the real deal. Let's let's put it up.
And here we are, eight years later, still doing it.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Were you were you fortunate enough to have ever met
Lenny Bruce or you're too young?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
No, I'm way too young. I was born I think
about five years after he passed. But you know, I
grew up on Carlon and Prior and those amazing guys,
and so Lenny was you know, they were disciples of
Lenny Bruce, as it were. Sure.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I mean you asked, you know, when Carla was around,
and you ask him, you know who his hero was?
He only mentioned Lenny Bruce.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, it's true. And you know in so many other
comics today, like even you know, Rest his Soul, but
like Richard Lewis, guys like that, they would all say
to me, you know, Lenny was my hero. He's my hero.
So it's pretty wild to be doing this show and
having those kinds of people see it, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
And you know it's also I mean, I would say
the modern day Lenny Bruce as far as you know,
going out and doing stand up and you know, friends
with Letterman or Lennon and everything. A lot of people
equated Norm MacDonald and Lenny Bruce. Like Norm had such
a you know, a fresh look and a unique look
on everything that he got compared to and was often
(02:31):
referred to as you know, the comedian's comedian. I hate
that term, but Norm McDonald was terrific.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Well that's interesting. You know, I had never heard that comparison,
but now that you say it, I totally could see it.
He definitely was someone who examined issues. That's the thing
with Lenny. I mean, he was hysterically funny, but the
truth was he held a mirror up to society and
just wanted to, you know, talk about all the taboo subjects.
And so you know today you don't get arrested for it.
You just canceled.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
All right. So the show is this weekend? Is it
going to be Saturday and Sunday?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yes, only Sunday Sunday.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Pay.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, that's all we can do because we're all over
the place. But it's really wild to be coming back
to Lamarada literally, you know, less than twelve months when
we played there, and that's not usual. So I feel
very grateful that they wanted to come back and present
it again. And you know, people seem to like the show,
so we're really lucky they.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Love it and it's a great alternative to that stupid NFL.
I guess that people look at that stupid thing too,
but it's a great alternative.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Well, you're right. And Joe Montagna, the Great Joe is.
He and I are doing a talkback after the show
and it's the same time the Bears are on, and
he's a very famous Chicagoans. So that tells you how
much he loves the show so much he's willing to
give up the Bears playoffs game that we could do
it back after the show. Yeah, that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
You know, we had Joe on he used on a
pizza place or an Italian restaurant here in Burbank, and
we had him on when the Cubs won the World
Series and man, he was emotional about that.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Oh yeah, it takes Chicago, which is a few blocks
we're in Burbanks now, and no, he's a huge Cubs
fan and you know, he wrote and co created a
Beacher Blum bleacher Bums that was all about the you know,
the Cubs never winning the championship. So I said to him,
what are you going to do now? He said, well,
I have a new he has a new opening and
(04:31):
a new ending he'd like to add to the now
that they've won.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
You know, right, were you a big were you a
Chicago sports fan or what? What are your what's your team?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I'm in New Yorker, He's huge, and so you know,
I'm in New Yorker. But I spent I spent six
months two different times in Chicago doing the show, and
so I kind of did fall over with the amazing city.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah, I think New York is great to be a
sports fan because you're literally a subway a ride away
from any of the venues.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That's true, That's absolutely true. No, I love the Yankees,
and but there's no New York team that I don't like.
You know, I don't not root for the Mets, you know, right,
I like New York win and then I but I
love whoever they're playing for, the Yankees, right, but the.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
City guys are all Rangers fans, and then the you know,
the the guys who live outside the cities, they're all Islander.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Fans, that's right. Yeah, well, you know it's kind of
like it's equivalent to what they used to say about
Giants fans and Jets fans. The only time you become
a Jet fan is because you can't get Giants thickets,
you know, so that the Jets, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, but you know what I will say this, Ronnie.
You know when when Las Vegas got their own National
Hockey League team, you know, four years after they established
themselves as a franchise, they won the Stanley Cup, And
I thought, that's the worst thing that could happen to
a city. You need thirty, forty or fifty years of
(06:02):
people watching it with their grandfathers, their uncles, their aunts,
their their moms, their dads, especially my dads and grandfathers
to watch your team, you know, go down in misery
every year for forty years and finally win one. It's
a special thing in life. And when you win one
after four years, those people in Vegas will never experience that.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
No, it's certainly much more. It's sweeter in that scenario,
Like you're saying a million, right, they were competitive right away.
I mean, I think because they got a couple of
guys from each team, right these picks. I don't know
how they organize that, but like they had a pretty
good team right away. I've seen him a bunch of times.
I go to a lot of Kings games.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, the Kings are great one.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, they're fun. My friend has incredible tickets on the glass,
so I'll get to go to a few years.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Oh yeah, I'm an old school My first Kings game
was nineteen sixty nine, nineteen seventy and so yeah, back
to Butcher Gore.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
All those guys, Dave Taylor, Charlie simmer ROGI fash on
all those dudes. All right, So the show is at
two pm Lamarana Theater. I don't think there's a nicer
theater with nicer people in the world. Every time I
go there, I feel like I'm an owner. I feel
like I'm at home. Everybody works there. It's just so great.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
It's true, and we were strategic about the two pm matinee.
It's slightly blasphemous to do Lenny at two pm on
a Sunday, but but you know, we did it last
year on a Friday night, and I felt horrible for
the traffic. Everybody showed up, but boy did they put
their time in. So I spoke to the powers that be.
I was like, listen, let's do a two pm Mattne
on a Sunday. Everybody's there in forty minutes. They can
(07:43):
enjoy the show, and so we're gonna do it just
kind of for that reason, honestly, but it's fantastic, so
we're excited to bring it back.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I'm glad you came on. I love Letny Bruce. I
often listen to a lot of the recordings. There's not
a lot of video, but there's a lot of audio
that he left behind, and it's just always great. And
the stuff that he did, you know, forty five fifty
years ago, is still even better now and more important
and fresher. It seems like it's odd.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Well, it seems like, you know, I don't know if
you notice, but our country is in a little bit
of trouble at the moment, and so my show is
slightly relevant and it's pretty wild to see what I'm
up there doing. Some of these scenes. People have a
visceral reaction to the show, and sometimes they're literally like
talking to the stage or yelling at the stage, and
(08:31):
it's it's a heck of a ride.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
Man.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I'm really really grateful to do it, to get a
chance come check it out.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I would love to be good. You know, Ronnie, thanks
for coming on. I know your local. I think you
live in the valley. Anytime you want to come on
or into you know, I need any publicity or any
kind of bump here. Always welcome here, bub.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Well, I appreciate that, Pala. I'll remember that I'm in Burbank.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
So, oh good, do you appreciate I live in Burbank too.
I live near a tally Rand. You know where that is?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I know it very well. I used to live on Lincoln.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
And al okay, great, great, I'm with.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
A block from tally Rat. It's literally a block from
telly Rat. But now I'm over by the Costco if
you know where that is?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Oh yes, yeah, Victory in Burbank area, and I got
to that costae. I go to that Costco three times
a week, you know, like an idiot.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, me too. No, I probably have bumped.
I probably asked you if you don't take up the
face in that place.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
We didn't even know where we're talking to exactly. All right, Thanks,

Speaker 7 (10:34):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty man.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
What great guest today We had Petros from the Petros
and Money Show. That guy was great. Adam talked sports
with us. He was terrific. Barbara Holiday one of the
best guests we've had on who also owns a comedy
club in years. And Ronnie Marma. It just it doesn't
(11:02):
get better than that. I dare you to, you know,
pick any other radio station and look at that guest list,
look at their guest list, and compared to ours, I
think we knock them out. It's a knockout. It's a
knockout blow. Congratulations to San Diego State University SDSU. I
went there for a little while until they tossed me out.
(11:24):
They came in second in the cheerleading competition the Nationals.
They came in second. Bellio. It's a big deal. That
is huge, din Barbara Holiday go to that school, yes
she did. Congratulations to them, Yes, San Diego State University.
So I was thinking about having a party at my
house for them. We'll work on it. Just to congratulate
(11:48):
the galas well. You just did. I don't think a
party is really necessary to you. I don't know because
my wife's going out of town. Oh here comes, and
she wouldn't be into it. So I got to do
it when she's not around, just to say, hey, you know,
get some food, some of that chili. Yeah, you're gonna
make the chili. Yeah, make the chili for sure. It's
a thoughtful of you appreciate it. But that's great. San
(12:12):
Diego State University kicked ass with cheerleading. Just bowled everybody
over except one team. They came in second. It's still
a big deal. Big deal, bell, big deal, all right.
A flight attire, I've been saying this for years. When
I was a kid and I was flying with my
mom and dad, it was a sports coat with a tie,
(12:33):
or a sports coat without a tie, or a nice
sweater and slacks and dress shoes. It was never jeans,
and my my sister had to wear a dress. My
mom wore a dress, and my dad wore either a
suit or a sports coat when we flew. I never
got on a plane as a kid without a sports coat.
It didn't Women, and I may have this wrong. Women
(12:54):
that wore dresses, You had to wear nylons, you had stockings.
I think I didn't know that. You get, you know,
somebody with an f you hat on, digging into a
bag of French fries from burger King and scratching their
feet without shoes on, and that that happened to me.
I got on a plane where I was going to
(13:16):
I think Chicago, and the woman sitting next to me
was crossing her legs. She was eating French fries out
of a burger King bag and after she put the
fry in her mouth, she would rub her the corns
on her feet. Yeah, and her foot was in my space.
And I did tell her, this is going to be
a different flight for you for the next four hours. Yeah,
(13:37):
one hundred. I said, what's well? I said, I said,
what's going on with you? You know where you're that casual?
She's gotta she had. She had a like a tank
top on with no brawl, which I thought was pretty good.
You know that you didn't have a problem with that. Yeah, no, no, no,
no no, But the bag can come to your party. Yeah,
maybe maybe she'll slide by but she also the bag
(13:59):
of fries and then rubbing your bare feet while she's
not eating with a big turnoff. You know, I didn't
even care about the tank top after a while, like, yes,
So you got flight attire. You got to dress up.
You know, you can't just go like a pig on
these flights.
Speaker 9 (14:15):
Here with me now to weigh in on airport dress codes.
Speaker 10 (14:17):
Clint Henderson, you know them as the managing editor for
The Points Guy and etiquette expert Mariah Grummitt Hubert. Mariah,
thanks so much for being here as well. Clince, you've
been here. You're an old friend, so I mean I
fly a lot. I know the answer to this question.
You're on a plane all the time. Have you noticed
any change over the last few months.
Speaker 9 (14:34):
No, that's the same.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
In fact, I think there's some people actively resisting by
wearing sweatpants, and.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
I know they're wearing pajamas. I see that a lot,
especially in overnight flights. Guys in pajamas insane. And you
don't want to be in pajamas when that thing goes
down and you got to get out an emergency door.
You don't want to be in loose fitting pajamas and.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Saying, you know, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna follow
this directive.
Speaker 9 (14:57):
Yeah, what do you think about this? Right?
Speaker 10 (14:59):
I mean, this is your sort of your whole world
about etiquette and dressing right and having manners.
Speaker 9 (15:03):
How did we get here?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Okay, we got to positive here, and we'll pick it
up after the break. But you know, my mom told
me whenever we went to vacation or went to see
my grandparents, when we go to see the world, the
world sees us. She would say that every time we
left the house before we left on vacation or before
I went to see my grandparents, when we see the world,
(15:26):
the world sees us, you're going to behave on this
plane or and my dad used to say. My dad
flew first class because he had money and we didn't.
But he would put all six kids back in coach
and he would always come back before the flight took
off and he would say, Kelly, Timmy Patrick, Jamie, Corey, Sean.
He would say to all of us, guys, I hope
(15:48):
you have a great flight, hope you have a lot
of fun. I'lle you enjoy it. But if the flight
attendant has to come up and get me to come
back and talk to you. I'm going to open that
back door and throw all of you off this flight
in mid air. And we were too young to realize
he was joking, and we sat like mummies, like statues
(16:09):
for the entire flight, didn't move at all at all.
I will come back and talk more about flight etiquette.
What you need to do. You got to straighten up.
You got to stop with the sweats and the pajamas,
and don't wear pajamas the Walmart either. It's a real
turn off for me, and I don't want to be
turned off.
Speaker 7 (16:29):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
A six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
We in twenty twenty six still have to tell people
how to dress, how to behave in public, especially on flights,
and they're asking people to step it up a little
when you got on a plane. Maybe leave the pajamas
at home and the sweats at home and act like
you know, you got a couple of bucks. Maybe don't
(16:56):
maybe do who knows, But how about just acting like
a human being around other human beings.
Speaker 11 (17:03):
I think that we forgot that over half of the
way that we communicate with people is with our nonverbal
behavior and The way we dress is part of that.
It's part of our body language. And so when we
think about what etiquette is all about, it's our respect
for ourselves, but it's also respect for others. And so
dressing well on the airplane is showing respect to our
fellow travelers and the airline staff.
Speaker 9 (17:21):
Do you hear that?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Did you hear this? Woman?
Speaker 11 (17:23):
Dressing well on the airplane is showing respect to our
fellow travelers and the airline staff.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Yes, showing respect to the airline staff, staff and fellow travelers.
Speaker 10 (17:32):
Do you guys think that that the airlines may bee
pushed us here a little bit right? Ticket prices got up,
we got less and less leg room, things got a
little more hectic, planes got more full.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Yeah, okay, but still you don't have to dress like
a pig.
Speaker 9 (17:44):
Yeah. My argument against this.
Speaker 5 (17:46):
I appreciate Duffy's efforts to get people to be more civilized, but.
Speaker 9 (17:50):
The onus to me should be on the airlines.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
And I feel like we've forgotten the corporation's responsibility to
us humans, and so I want to see it be
a two ways street. I don't want it to be
all on the customer to behave better. I want to
have more leg room. I don't want full flights, yeah,
I want passenger rights that kind of thing.
Speaker 10 (18:07):
On the issue of sort of what you wear on
the airplane, right, some airlines have actually issued guidance.
Speaker 9 (18:13):
I want to put this up for you.
Speaker 10 (18:14):
Spirit Airlines has had to explicitly prohibit see through clothing.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Oh my god. Spirit Airlines had to put a memo
out forbidding see through clothing. That's where you are on Spirit.
Speaker 10 (18:30):
See through clothing, see through clothing, crop tops that show
too much skin and bare feet?
Speaker 1 (18:37):
What is the wood bare feet? Somebody's flying without shoes that.
Speaker 9 (18:41):
Show too much skin and bare feet.
Speaker 10 (18:43):
Who is doing this flying without shoes? What is the
worst dress or conduct you've seen on a plane lately?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Clinton, that's got to be right up there, guy walking
on or gal walking on with those shoes.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
I think short shorts and athlete sure can be taken
to the extreme where people who should not be wearing
enough sometimes so bare feet on the bulkhead as a
big no no for me.
Speaker 12 (19:09):
Yeah, I was going to say their feet too.
Speaker 11 (19:11):
And I think it's we've forgotten too that it doesn't
have to be comfortable or put together.
Speaker 12 (19:16):
It can be put together uncomfortable.
Speaker 10 (19:18):
Yeah, I think for me it's it's the pajamas, and
it's the look of wearing the pajamas, like you slept
in the pajamas and then you walked right to the
airport and your slippers.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yeah, it's the hair all messed up, pajamas are wrinkled,
it's the whole look. It just doesn't work for me,
and I don't want to see it.
Speaker 10 (19:35):
So straighten out, porting your slippers as well, because you did,
you probably did. I want to do some rapid fire
questions yes or no when it comes to what is
acceptable dress and behavior at the airport. So I'm going
to start there. Wearing pajama pantslan, I'll start with you,
yes or no? No, no, no, No.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Pajamas are for inside your home, period, not Walmart, not Target,
not Lows home depot, especially not on a plane. What's
wrong with people? Just straighten up, you know, just dressed
like you belong there, dress like to impress other people.
Speaker 9 (20:09):
Unless they look like hers. So those are pajamas or no?
Speaker 12 (20:15):
Comfortable?
Speaker 9 (20:15):
What about free Mariah pajamas? Yes or no?
Speaker 1 (20:18):
All right?
Speaker 9 (20:19):
Taking your shoes and socks off on an airplane?
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Absolutely not? What kind of animals are flying.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Not because you do not want to know what's on
that bathroom floor. That's a good point, Maria, what about you?
Speaker 11 (20:32):
No, no fair feet. I can't believe people even consider that.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
I'm with her. Why is this even a topic or
a subject?
Speaker 12 (20:39):
Their feet? I can't believe people even consider that.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
If you're at your seat and it's a fly, it
really is. And then when they put it up, they
put it between the seats and you can see their feet,
Oh my god.
Speaker 9 (20:50):
When you're at your seat, is that still a no?
No no?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
What was the question here?
Speaker 10 (20:54):
Seed, and it's a fly, you take your shoes off
when you're at your seat, is.
Speaker 9 (20:58):
That still a no no no.
Speaker 5 (20:59):
That's except the bolts now, okay, but don't put those
those socked feet on the bulkhead on your front passengers.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, the people that put them on the Bullkhea, they're
sitting up front and they put them up on the
carpeting on the wall. It's just gross. And I guess
people are just gonna be gross. You gotta get used
to it.
Speaker 6 (21:16):
All right.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
We're live on KFI AM six forty. I will be
out there tomorrow in Indio. It's one hundred and thirty
six miles from my house. And if I'm going one
hundred and thirty six, then I expect you in the

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Hey, I didn't know. I didn't know this Krozier. But
according to Barbara Holiday, there was a Floppers in Claremont.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
There was.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 13 (22:34):
Yeah, it was at the packing House, which is a
restored exactly what that used to be back there in
the day packing house of like fruit and stuff for
the Claremont area, and they've revitalized it into more of
a shopping thing. It was there for a couple of
years and it was kind of in an upstairs area.
It was a little bit tough for them to get
good business there because of that, so it didn't quite
last there, but it was always quality when I went.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh you went that times.
Speaker 13 (22:56):
They used to do a Sunday thing for like kids
could go in there and do that's true day.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
Yeah. She she does a great job with that.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Yeah, that's a cool deal. Great, uh, Lady Barbara Holiday.
And she gave us tickets to go see you know Slappers.
I think she gave me six tickets, so ebabe tonight
I'm going Yeah, no, I'm definitely gonna go. These are
great tickets. And if you notice the tickets have her
name on the back of yea. That means you're gonna
get treated right, Yeah, got the owner name on the tickets,
(23:25):
That one's gonna get a good seat.
Speaker 7 (23:28):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Ding dong. All right, we're wrapping it up here. We've
had a lot of great guests on today. I'd like
to thank all of them. Of course, we had Adam
on to talk about sports. He was great. He likes
the Rams chances against the Bears. That's gonna be the
second game on Sunday. That game will start at three
(23:55):
point thirty. I bet it's gonna start a little later
because they're gonna wait for the first game to end
before they start the second game. So I bet it's
closer to four o'clock when that game starts on Sunday.
So that Adam was great. Then we had Barbara Holiday,
she owns Flappers in Burbank, owns it and she kept
saying it's women owned. It's a woman owned, women owned,
(24:16):
and that's a big deal. Women are getting out there
owning stuff. And then we also had Ronnie Marmo on.
He's the guy and I'm not a comedian I'm Lenny Bruce.
There's gonna be a show Sunday at two pm at
the Lambarada Theater. Tickets are still available two pm Lamarada Theater.
(24:37):
So get on out there and look at that. And
then of course Petros Papadakis from the Petros Money Show
was on with us. So that's a great show. Bellium
deserve an Ada girl for that. Put together a great program, Bellium,
great great program. All right, the first ever fashion editor.
(24:57):
How about this for the NFL? What's going on with
this fashion editor is that what's going on.
Speaker 14 (25:06):
Here called the NFL playoffs have just shifted into overdrive
with eight elite teams still in the hunt for the
Lombardi Trophy.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
And that's right, only eight teams are left.
Speaker 14 (25:18):
But what's turned heads all season long is how the
league's biggest stars shine even before kickoff.
Speaker 12 (25:26):
We've got the gloves on to day dressed in.
Speaker 14 (25:28):
Their Sunday best players. Stadium arrivals have become a fashion show.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
That's money when you come matching with the luggage those suits.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Did you hear that? The players show up like they're important.
They're not showing up in pajamas in draw string sweats,
they're showing up to impress, dressed to impress. It's important
you do that in life.
Speaker 14 (25:49):
Those so called tunnel walks going viral, garnering thousands of
likes and views online. Sure, fans connecting with Bijon Robinson's
clean cart again, treasuring Travis Kelcey's tailored suits and fascinated
by first I.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Think that's a firhead banner.
Speaker 9 (26:06):
Hell yeah, I'll never say so much.
Speaker 14 (26:08):
Just the showcase of these trend setting looks, spotlighting the
league's new focus on fashion.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Yeah, fashion in the NFL.
Speaker 9 (26:16):
I think that's a really good one. I think that's
a really good one.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
That's a nice line, right, I think that's a really
good one.
Speaker 9 (26:24):
I think that's a really good line.
Speaker 14 (26:26):
A play drawn up by the NFL's first ever fashion editor,
Kyle Smith.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
He's a fashion editor for the National Football League. There's
only one of them in the world.
Speaker 14 (26:36):
Is there a better runway than a tunnel walk?
Speaker 12 (26:38):
In sports?
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Nope.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
The tunnel is where fashion happens now on the day.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
We met up, like Richie. That's not like our producer Richie.
Speaker 12 (26:47):
In sports a little bit.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
The tunnel is where fashion happens now.
Speaker 14 (26:52):
On the day we met up with him. Smith was
curating a fan focused photo shoot, showcasing creative ways to
style a game day staple, the team jersey. It's just
one of the many ways.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I lost interest college basketball. There's more people being charged,
including college basketball players, in this illegal gambling scam, this
fiasco that popped up and now looks like it's spreading
its tentacles and they're grabbing more people in this dragnet.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
Now to the latest development and an issue that's been
plaguing the world of sports. Federal prosecutors who charged roughly
two dozen people, including many college basketball players, in an
illegal gambling pro FBI says a point shaving scheme again
in the Chinese Basketball Association in twenty twenty two, and
then moved on to the NCAA Basketball where at least
twenty nine games are said to have been fixed. Players
(27:45):
were allegedly offered as bunch as thirty thousand dollars to
rig the games. Here's what prosecutors said in a press
conference earlier today.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
The scheme here was the defendants would identify a game
in which a corrupted player had a team that was
favored to lose, and then and they would bribe, said
player to deliberately underperform so that his team would lose
by more than they were favored to. You'd bet for
them to not cover the point spread.
Speaker 8 (28:09):
Goodness, gracious, well, Danny Funt joins us now from Charlotte.
He's the author of Everybody Loses. It's a multuous rise
with sports gambling, which.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Great bye, by the way, that's a great title for
a book.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Everybody Loses outhor of Everybody Loses. It's a multuous rise sports.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Why they loses because they're losers.
Speaker 8 (28:25):
Coincidentally just happens to be coming out next week.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
What timing.
Speaker 8 (28:28):
We've seen point shaving scandals like this before. It was
the Boston College went back in the nineteen seventies. There
have been other instances in the last year or so.
But what makes this one different? Now, of course that
sports gambling is legal, I.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Would say, for one, just how brazen it is. This
is allegedly a scheme that covered dozens of programs, affected
at least twenty nine games, as you said, and just
the amount of money at stake. There are bribing players
allegedly ten to thirty grand per game if they facilitated
this point shaving, and some of it is kind of
(29:02):
staggering if you read the indictment, including how immediate this
was that you had players in the locker room after
they had fixed the final score of the first half,
which is what a lot of these betters were gambling on,
saying things like, wow, that was so easy. It was
so easy to fix a.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Game, so unbelievable. You know, you probably have an action
you could take if you bet on those games, if
you still have the bet slip or it's you know,
on your computer or whatever, maybe in your email. You
could probably sue somebody for that because they ripped you off.
You know, it was illegal what they did. They shaved
points and did something illegal, and you it cost you money.
(29:44):
Here's a letter that we got. I've recently lost the
love of my life, passed October. She was the sweetest girl.
Her name was Ashley. She was never into radio. However,
when your show was on, she would indulge me and listen.
You made her laugh quite a few times, mister com
I spent almost thirty days in the hospital with her.
I never left her side. The fateful night she passed away,
(30:06):
I couldn't leave the hospital. I slept in my car
outside in the parking lot. Although she left this realm,
she still wanted to stay there. It's been effing tough.
Eighty seven days tonight, eighty seven days ago it happened. The
only thing that has kept me going is listening to
you and your entire crew. Well, God bless you II.
(30:28):
You guys and gals make me smile and last and laugh.
I listened to all your podcasts. You guys bring me
so much comfort, like a warm blanket. I can't explain it.
I just love each one of you, every single one
of you. Thank you for comforting me. PS you can
send a shout out to the love of my life, please.
Her name is Ashley Leloi boose Buss. She was born
(30:55):
in July nineteen eighty six and passed away in October
of twenty twenty five. She's such a sweet girl. Ashley,
God bless you and Joel Rios, God bless you as well.
We will try to keep you busy through this really
tough time in your life. All right, I'll see you
tomorrow in Palm Springs and in Indio four four nine
(31:18):
oh seven Golf Center Parkway in Indio. I'll be there
from eleven am until one pm and maybe Joel Rios
will be out there, God bless that man. We're live
coming up. Who's coming up next here? Louke Penrose coming
up next on KFI AM six forty Conway Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you can always hear
(31:39):
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 camp. I am six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. I
always busted Tom's balls. I used to say, whenever I
saw a like as sticker on a car, I always
stayed away because I knew that guy didn't have an insurance.
Just kidding, got almighty. I'm excited about this guest. Everybody,
(00:24):
all of my friends and family who have seen this
show says it's like seeing Lenny Bruce on stage. I'm
not a comedian, I'm Lenny Bruce. It ran for one
hundred and twenty five performances in Los Angeles over nine
months off Broadway, massive media attention, and it's it. You know,
very rarely you go to a play, do go to
performance and you and you when you leave, you're like, oh,
(00:47):
I saw Lenny Bruce, and that is who's what with this?
Right now? Ronnie Marmo is with us. Ronnie, how are you, sir?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I'm doing great, especially with that Metallica intro. I was like,
that's great, people, this is amazing, this is amazing.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Did you doing great? Did you write this or or
did you collaborate with somebody?
Speaker 3 (01:08):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I wrote this. I wrote this, and uh yeah, I
took about five years and I just kind of took
my time and finally put it up and just you know,
showed it to Joe Montga, my great director and h
and I read it for him and he said, Okay,
this is the real deal. Let's let's put it up.
And here we are, eight years later, still doing it.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Were you were you fortunate enough to have ever met
Lenny Bruce or you're too young?
Speaker 2 (01:31):
No, I'm way too young. I was born I think
about five years after he passed. But you know, I
grew up on Carlon and Prior and those amazing guys,
and so Lenny was you know, they were disciples of
Lenny Bruce, as it were. Sure.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
I mean you asked, you know, when Carla was around,
and you ask him, you know who his hero was?
He only mentioned Lenny Bruce.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Yeah, it's true. And you know in so many other
comics today, like even you know, Rest his Soul, but
like Richard Lewis, guys like that, they would all say
to me, you know, Lenny was my hero. He's my hero.
So it's pretty wild to be doing this show and
having those kinds of people see it, you know.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
And you know it's also I mean, I would say
the modern day Lenny Bruce as far as you know,
going out and doing stand up and you know, friends
with Letterman or Lennon and everything. A lot of people
equated Norm MacDonald and Lenny Bruce. Like Norm had such
a you know, a fresh look and a unique look
on everything that he got compared to and was often
(02:31):
referred to as you know, the comedian's comedian. I hate
that term, but Norm McDonald was terrific.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Well that's interesting. You know, I had never heard that comparison,
but now that you say it, I totally could see it.
He definitely was someone who examined issues. That's the thing
with Lenny. I mean, he was hysterically funny, but the
truth was he held a mirror up to society and
just wanted to, you know, talk about all the taboo subjects.
And so you know today you don't get arrested for it.
You just canceled.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
All right. So the show is this weekend? Is it
going to be Saturday and Sunday?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yes, only Sunday Sunday.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Pay.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, that's all we can do because we're all over
the place. But it's really wild to be coming back
to Lamarada literally, you know, less than twelve months when
we played there, and that's not usual. So I feel
very grateful that they wanted to come back and present
it again. And you know, people seem to like the show,
so we're really lucky they.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Love it and it's a great alternative to that stupid NFL.
I guess that people look at that stupid thing too,
but it's a great alternative.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Well, you're right. And Joe Montagna, the Great Joe is.
He and I are doing a talkback after the show
and it's the same time the Bears are on, and
he's a very famous Chicagoans. So that tells you how
much he loves the show so much he's willing to
give up the Bears playoffs game that we could do
it back after the show. Yeah, that's pretty impressive.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
You know, we had Joe on he used on a
pizza place or an Italian restaurant here in Burbank, and
we had him on when the Cubs won the World
Series and man, he was emotional about that.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Oh yeah, it takes Chicago, which is a few blocks
we're in Burbanks now, and no, he's a huge Cubs
fan and you know, he wrote and co created a
Beacher Blum bleacher Bums that was all about the you know,
the Cubs never winning the championship. So I said to him,
what are you going to do now? He said, well,
I have a new he has a new opening and
(04:31):
a new ending he'd like to add to the now
that they've won.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
You know, right, were you a big were you a
Chicago sports fan or what? What are your what's your team?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I'm in New Yorker, He's huge, and so you know,
I'm in New Yorker. But I spent I spent six
months two different times in Chicago doing the show, and
so I kind of did fall over with the amazing city.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah, I think New York is great to be a
sports fan because you're literally a subway a ride away
from any of the venues.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
That's true, That's absolutely true. No, I love the Yankees,
and but there's no New York team that I don't like.
You know, I don't not root for the Mets, you know, right,
I like New York win and then I but I
love whoever they're playing for, the Yankees, right, but the.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
City guys are all Rangers fans, and then the you know,
the the guys who live outside the cities, they're all Islander.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Fans, that's right. Yeah, well, you know it's kind of
like it's equivalent to what they used to say about
Giants fans and Jets fans. The only time you become
a Jet fan is because you can't get Giants thickets,
you know, so that the Jets, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, but you know what I will say this, Ronnie.
You know when when Las Vegas got their own National
Hockey League team, you know, four years after they established
themselves as a franchise, they won the Stanley Cup, And
I thought, that's the worst thing that could happen to
a city. You need thirty, forty or fifty years of
(06:02):
people watching it with their grandfathers, their uncles, their aunts,
their their moms, their dads, especially my dads and grandfathers
to watch your team, you know, go down in misery
every year for forty years and finally win one. It's
a special thing in life. And when you win one
after four years, those people in Vegas will never experience that.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
No, it's certainly much more. It's sweeter in that scenario,
Like you're saying a million, right, they were competitive right away.
I mean, I think because they got a couple of
guys from each team, right these picks. I don't know
how they organize that, but like they had a pretty
good team right away. I've seen him a bunch of times.
I go to a lot of Kings games.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, the Kings are great one.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Yeah, they're fun. My friend has incredible tickets on the glass,
so I'll get to go to a few years.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Oh yeah, I'm an old school My first Kings game
was nineteen sixty nine, nineteen seventy and so yeah, back
to Butcher Gore.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
All those guys, Dave Taylor, Charlie simmer ROGI fash on
all those dudes. All right, So the show is at
two pm Lamarana Theater. I don't think there's a nicer
theater with nicer people in the world. Every time I
go there, I feel like I'm an owner. I feel
like I'm at home. Everybody works there. It's just so great.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
It's true, and we were strategic about the two pm matinee.
It's slightly blasphemous to do Lenny at two pm on
a Sunday, but but you know, we did it last
year on a Friday night, and I felt horrible for
the traffic. Everybody showed up, but boy did they put
their time in. So I spoke to the powers that be.
I was like, listen, let's do a two pm Mattne
on a Sunday. Everybody's there in forty minutes. They can
(07:43):
enjoy the show, and so we're gonna do it just
kind of for that reason, honestly, but it's fantastic, so
we're excited to bring it back.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I'm glad you came on. I love Letny Bruce. I
often listen to a lot of the recordings. There's not
a lot of video, but there's a lot of audio
that he left behind, and it's just always great. And
the stuff that he did, you know, forty five fifty
years ago, is still even better now and more important
and fresher. It seems like it's odd.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Well, it seems like, you know, I don't know if
you notice, but our country is in a little bit
of trouble at the moment, and so my show is
slightly relevant and it's pretty wild to see what I'm
up there doing. Some of these scenes. People have a
visceral reaction to the show, and sometimes they're literally like
talking to the stage or yelling at the stage, and
(08:31):
it's it's a heck of a ride.
Speaker 5 (08:33):
Man.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I'm really really grateful to do it, to get a
chance come check it out.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
I would love to be good. You know, Ronnie, thanks
for coming on. I know your local. I think you
live in the valley. Anytime you want to come on
or into you know, I need any publicity or any
kind of bump here. Always welcome here, bub.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Well, I appreciate that, Pala. I'll remember that I'm in Burbank.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
So, oh good, do you appreciate I live in Burbank too.
I live near a tally Rand. You know where that is?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
I know it very well. I used to live on Lincoln.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
And al okay, great, great, I'm with.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
A block from tally Rat. It's literally a block from
telly Rat. But now I'm over by the Costco if
you know where that is?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Oh yes, yeah, Victory in Burbank area, and I got
to that costae. I go to that Costco three times
a week, you know, like an idiot.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Oh yeah, oh yeah, me too. No, I probably have bumped.
I probably asked you if you don't take up the
face in that place.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
We didn't even know where we're talking to exactly. All right, Thanks,
have a great show, break leg. We'll talk to you soon. Thanks,
all right, thanks Roy, Ronnie Marmo. I'm not a comedian.

whole bowl in your mouth? I mean you can't just spoon?
Speaker 8 (09:58):

You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty man.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
What great guest today We had Petros from the Petros
and Money Show. That guy was great. Adam talked sports
with us. He was terrific. Barbara Holiday one of the
best guests we've had on who also owns a comedy
club in years. And Ronnie Marma. It just it doesn't
(11:02):
get better than that. I dare you to, you know,
pick any other radio station and look at that guest list,
look at their guest list, and compared to ours, I
think we knock them out. It's a knockout. It's a
knockout blow. Congratulations to San Diego State University SDSU. I
went there for a little while until they tossed me out.
(11:24):
They came in second in the cheerleading competition the Nationals.
They came in second. Bellio. It's a big deal. That
is huge, din Barbara Holiday go to that school, yes
she did. Congratulations to them, Yes, San Diego State University.
So I was thinking about having a party at my
house for them. We'll work on it. Just to congratulate
(11:48):
the galas well. You just did. I don't think a
party is really necessary to you. I don't know because
my wife's going out of town. Oh here comes, and
she wouldn't be into it. So I got to do
it when she's not around, just to say, hey, you know,
get some food, some of that chili. Yeah, you're gonna
make the chili. Yeah, make the chili for sure. It's
a thoughtful of you appreciate it. But that's great. San
(12:12):
Diego State University kicked ass with cheerleading. Just bowled everybody
over except one team. They came in second. It's still
a big deal. Big deal, bell, big deal, all right.
A flight attire, I've been saying this for years. When
I was a kid and I was flying with my
mom and dad, it was a sports coat with a tie,
(12:33):
or a sports coat without a tie, or a nice
sweater and slacks and dress shoes. It was never jeans,
and my my sister had to wear a dress. My
mom wore a dress, and my dad wore either a
suit or a sports coat when we flew. I never
got on a plane as a kid without a sports coat.
It didn't Women, and I may have this wrong. Women
(12:54):
that wore dresses, You had to wear nylons, you had stockings.
I think I didn't know that. You get, you know,
somebody with an f you hat on, digging into a
bag of French fries from burger King and scratching their
feet without shoes on, and that that happened to me.
I got on a plane where I was going to
(13:16):
I think Chicago, and the woman sitting next to me
was crossing her legs. She was eating French fries out
of a burger King bag and after she put the
fry in her mouth, she would rub her the corns
on her feet. Yeah, and her foot was in my space.
And I did tell her, this is going to be
a different flight for you for the next four hours. Yeah,
(13:37):
one hundred. I said, what's well? I said, I said,
what's going on with you? You know where you're that casual?
She's gotta she had. She had a like a tank
top on with no brawl, which I thought was pretty good.
You know that you didn't have a problem with that. Yeah, no, no, no,
no no, But the bag can come to your party. Yeah,
maybe maybe she'll slide by but she also the bag
(13:59):
of fries and then rubbing your bare feet while she's
not eating with a big turnoff. You know, I didn't
even care about the tank top after a while, like, yes,
So you got flight attire. You got to dress up.
You know, you can't just go like a pig on
these flights.
Speaker 9 (14:15):
Here with me now to weigh in on airport dress codes.
Speaker 10 (14:17):
Clint Henderson, you know them as the managing editor for
The Points Guy and etiquette expert Mariah Grummitt Hubert. Mariah,
thanks so much for being here as well. Clince, you've
been here. You're an old friend, so I mean I
fly a lot. I know the answer to this question.
You're on a plane all the time. Have you noticed
any change over the last few months.
Speaker 9 (14:34):
No, that's the same.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
In fact, I think there's some people actively resisting by
wearing sweatpants, and.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
I know they're wearing pajamas. I see that a lot,
especially in overnight flights. Guys in pajamas insane. And you
don't want to be in pajamas when that thing goes
down and you got to get out an emergency door.
You don't want to be in loose fitting pajamas and.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Saying, you know, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna follow
this directive.
Speaker 9 (14:57):
Yeah, what do you think about this? Right?
Speaker 10 (14:59):
I mean, this is your sort of your whole world
about etiquette and dressing right and having manners.
Speaker 9 (15:03):
How did we get here?
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Okay, we got to positive here, and we'll pick it
up after the break. But you know, my mom told
me whenever we went to vacation or went to see
my grandparents, when we go to see the world, the
world sees us. She would say that every time we
left the house before we left on vacation or before
I went to see my grandparents, when we see the world,
(15:26):
the world sees us, you're going to behave on this
plane or and my dad used to say. My dad
flew first class because he had money and we didn't.
But he would put all six kids back in coach
and he would always come back before the flight took
off and he would say, Kelly, Timmy Patrick, Jamie, Corey, Sean.
He would say to all of us, guys, I hope
(15:48):
you have a great flight, hope you have a lot
of fun. I'lle you enjoy it. But if the flight
attendant has to come up and get me to come
back and talk to you. I'm going to open that
back door and throw all of you off this flight
in mid air. And we were too young to realize
he was joking, and we sat like mummies, like statues
(16:09):
for the entire flight, didn't move at all at all.
I will come back and talk more about flight etiquette.
What you need to do. You got to straighten up.
You got to stop with the sweats and the pajamas,
and don't wear pajamas the Walmart either. It's a real
turn off for me, and I don't want to be
turned off.
Speaker 7 (16:29):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
A six forty.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
We in twenty twenty six still have to tell people
how to dress, how to behave in public, especially on flights,
and they're asking people to step it up a little
when you got on a plane. Maybe leave the pajamas
at home and the sweats at home and act like
you know, you got a couple of bucks. Maybe don't
(16:56):
maybe do who knows, But how about just acting like
a human being around other human beings.
Speaker 11 (17:03):
I think that we forgot that over half of the
way that we communicate with people is with our nonverbal
behavior and The way we dress is part of that.
It's part of our body language. And so when we
think about what etiquette is all about, it's our respect
for ourselves, but it's also respect for others. And so
dressing well on the airplane is showing respect to our
fellow travelers and the airline staff.
Speaker 9 (17:21):
Do you hear that?
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Did you hear this? Woman?
Speaker 11 (17:23):
Dressing well on the airplane is showing respect to our
fellow travelers and the airline staff.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Yes, showing respect to the airline staff, staff and fellow travelers.
Speaker 10 (17:32):
Do you guys think that that the airlines may bee
pushed us here a little bit right? Ticket prices got up,
we got less and less leg room, things got a
little more hectic, planes got more full.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Yeah, okay, but still you don't have to dress like
a pig.
Speaker 9 (17:44):
Yeah. My argument against this.
Speaker 5 (17:46):
I appreciate Duffy's efforts to get people to be more civilized, but.
Speaker 9 (17:50):
The onus to me should be on the airlines.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
And I feel like we've forgotten the corporation's responsibility to
us humans, and so I want to see it be
a two ways street. I don't want it to be
all on the customer to behave better. I want to
have more leg room. I don't want full flights, yeah,
I want passenger rights that kind of thing.
Speaker 10 (18:07):
On the issue of sort of what you wear on
the airplane, right, some airlines have actually issued guidance.
Speaker 9 (18:13):
I want to put this up for you.
Speaker 10 (18:14):
Spirit Airlines has had to explicitly prohibit see through clothing.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
Oh my god. Spirit Airlines had to put a memo
out forbidding see through clothing. That's where you are on Spirit.
Speaker 10 (18:30):
See through clothing, see through clothing, crop tops that show
too much skin and bare feet?
Speaker 1 (18:37):
What is the wood bare feet? Somebody's flying without shoes that.
Speaker 9 (18:41):
Show too much skin and bare feet.
Speaker 10 (18:43):
Who is doing this flying without shoes? What is the
worst dress or conduct you've seen on a plane lately?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Clinton, that's got to be right up there, guy walking
on or gal walking on with those shoes.
Speaker 5 (18:56):
I think short shorts and athlete sure can be taken
to the extreme where people who should not be wearing
enough sometimes so bare feet on the bulkhead as a
big no no for me.
Speaker 12 (19:09):
Yeah, I was going to say their feet too.
Speaker 11 (19:11):
And I think it's we've forgotten too that it doesn't
have to be comfortable or put together.
Speaker 12 (19:16):
It can be put together uncomfortable.
Speaker 10 (19:18):
Yeah, I think for me it's it's the pajamas, and
it's the look of wearing the pajamas, like you slept
in the pajamas and then you walked right to the
airport and your slippers.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yeah, it's the hair all messed up, pajamas are wrinkled,
it's the whole look. It just doesn't work for me,
and I don't want to see it.
Speaker 10 (19:35):
So straighten out, porting your slippers as well, because you did,
you probably did. I want to do some rapid fire
questions yes or no when it comes to what is
acceptable dress and behavior at the airport. So I'm going
to start there. Wearing pajama pantslan, I'll start with you,
yes or no? No, no, no, No.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Pajamas are for inside your home, period, not Walmart, not Target,
not Lows home depot, especially not on a plane. What's
wrong with people? Just straighten up, you know, just dressed
like you belong there, dress like to impress other people.
Speaker 9 (20:09):
Unless they look like hers. So those are pajamas or no?
Speaker 12 (20:15):
Comfortable?
Speaker 9 (20:15):
What about free Mariah pajamas? Yes or no?
Speaker 1 (20:18):
All right?
Speaker 9 (20:19):
Taking your shoes and socks off on an airplane?
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Absolutely not? What kind of animals are flying.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Not because you do not want to know what's on
that bathroom floor. That's a good point, Maria, what about you?
Speaker 11 (20:32):
No, no fair feet. I can't believe people even consider that.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
I'm with her. Why is this even a topic or
a subject?
Speaker 12 (20:39):
Their feet? I can't believe people even consider that.
Speaker 1 (20:42):
If you're at your seat and it's a fly, it
really is. And then when they put it up, they
put it between the seats and you can see their feet,
Oh my god.
Speaker 9 (20:50):
When you're at your seat, is that still a no?
No no?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
What was the question here?
Speaker 10 (20:54):
Seed, and it's a fly, you take your shoes off
when you're at your seat, is.
Speaker 9 (20:58):
That still a no no no.
Speaker 5 (20:59):
That's except the bolts now, okay, but don't put those
those socked feet on the bulkhead on your front passengers.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, the people that put them on the Bullkhea, they're
sitting up front and they put them up on the
carpeting on the wall. It's just gross. And I guess
people are just gonna be gross. You gotta get used
to it.
Speaker 6 (21:16):
All right.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
We're live on KFI AM six forty. I will be
out there tomorrow in Indio. It's one hundred and thirty
six miles from my house. And if I'm going one

I'm a blast Away for three. I was after that chili.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Hey, I didn't know. I didn't know this Krozier. But
according to Barbara Holiday, there was a Floppers in Claremont.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
There was.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 13 (22:34):
Yeah, it was at the packing House, which is a
restored exactly what that used to be back there in
the day packing house of like fruit and stuff for
the Claremont area, and they've revitalized it into more of
a shopping thing. It was there for a couple of
years and it was kind of in an upstairs area.
It was a little bit tough for them to get
good business there because of that, so it didn't quite
last there, but it was always quality when I went.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh you went that times.
Speaker 13 (22:56):
They used to do a Sunday thing for like kids
could go in there and do that's true day.
Speaker 6 (23:00):
Yeah. She she does a great job with that.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Yeah, that's a cool deal. Great, uh, Lady Barbara Holiday.
And she gave us tickets to go see you know Slappers.
I think she gave me six tickets, so ebabe tonight
I'm going Yeah, no, I'm definitely gonna go. These are
great tickets. And if you notice the tickets have her
name on the back of yea. That means you're gonna
get treated right, Yeah, got the owner name on the tickets,
(23:25):
That one's gonna get a good seat.
Speaker 7 (23:28):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Ding dong. All right, we're wrapping it up here. We've
had a lot of great guests on today. I'd like
to thank all of them. Of course, we had Adam
on to talk about sports. He was great. He likes
the Rams chances against the Bears. That's gonna be the
second game on Sunday. That game will start at three
(23:55):
point thirty. I bet it's gonna start a little later
because they're gonna wait for the first game to end
before they start the second game. So I bet it's
closer to four o'clock when that game starts on Sunday.
So that Adam was great. Then we had Barbara Holiday,
she owns Flappers in Burbank, owns it and she kept
saying it's women owned. It's a woman owned, women owned,
(24:16):
and that's a big deal. Women are getting out there
owning stuff. And then we also had Ronnie Marmo on.
He's the guy and I'm not a comedian I'm Lenny Bruce.
There's gonna be a show Sunday at two pm at
the Lambarada Theater. Tickets are still available two pm Lamarada Theater.
(24:37):
So get on out there and look at that. And
then of course Petros Papadakis from the Petros Money Show
was on with us. So that's a great show. Bellium
deserve an Ada girl for that. Put together a great program, Bellium,
great great program. All right, the first ever fashion editor.
(24:57):
How about this for the NFL? What's going on with
this fashion editor is that what's going on.
Speaker 14 (25:06):
Here called the NFL playoffs have just shifted into overdrive
with eight elite teams still in the hunt for the
Lombardi Trophy.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
And that's right, only eight teams are left.
Speaker 14 (25:18):
But what's turned heads all season long is how the
league's biggest stars shine even before kickoff.
Speaker 12 (25:26):
We've got the gloves on to day dressed in.
Speaker 14 (25:28):
Their Sunday best players. Stadium arrivals have become a fashion show.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
That's money when you come matching with the luggage those suits.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Did you hear that? The players show up like they're important.
They're not showing up in pajamas in draw string sweats,
they're showing up to impress, dressed to impress. It's important
you do that in life.
Speaker 14 (25:49):
Those so called tunnel walks going viral, garnering thousands of
likes and views online. Sure, fans connecting with Bijon Robinson's
clean cart again, treasuring Travis Kelcey's tailored suits and fascinated
by first I.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Think that's a firhead banner.
Speaker 9 (26:06):
Hell yeah, I'll never say so much.
Speaker 14 (26:08):
Just the showcase of these trend setting looks, spotlighting the
league's new focus on fashion.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
Yeah, fashion in the NFL.
Speaker 9 (26:16):
I think that's a really good one. I think that's
a really good one.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
That's a nice line, right, I think that's a really
good one.
Speaker 9 (26:24):
I think that's a really good line.
Speaker 14 (26:26):
A play drawn up by the NFL's first ever fashion editor,
Kyle Smith.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
He's a fashion editor for the National Football League. There's
only one of them in the world.
Speaker 14 (26:36):
Is there a better runway than a tunnel walk?
Speaker 12 (26:38):
In sports?
Speaker 1 (26:39):
Nope.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
The tunnel is where fashion happens now on the day.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
We met up, like Richie. That's not like our producer Richie.
Speaker 12 (26:47):
In sports a little bit.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
The tunnel is where fashion happens now.
Speaker 14 (26:52):
On the day we met up with him. Smith was
curating a fan focused photo shoot, showcasing creative ways to
style a game day staple, the team jersey. It's just
one of the many ways.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I lost interest college basketball. There's more people being charged,
including college basketball players, in this illegal gambling scam, this
fiasco that popped up and now looks like it's spreading
its tentacles and they're grabbing more people in this dragnet.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
Now to the latest development and an issue that's been
plaguing the world of sports. Federal prosecutors who charged roughly
two dozen people, including many college basketball players, in an
illegal gambling pro FBI says a point shaving scheme again
in the Chinese Basketball Association in twenty twenty two, and
then moved on to the NCAA Basketball where at least
twenty nine games are said to have been fixed. Players
(27:45):
were allegedly offered as bunch as thirty thousand dollars to
rig the games. Here's what prosecutors said in a press
conference earlier today.
Speaker 4 (27:51):
The scheme here was the defendants would identify a game
in which a corrupted player had a team that was
favored to lose, and then and they would bribe, said
player to deliberately underperform so that his team would lose
by more than they were favored to. You'd bet for
them to not cover the point spread.
Speaker 8 (28:09):
Goodness, gracious, well, Danny Funt joins us now from Charlotte.
He's the author of Everybody Loses. It's a multuous rise
with sports gambling, which.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
Great bye, by the way, that's a great title for
a book.
Speaker 8 (28:18):
Everybody Loses outhor of Everybody Loses. It's a multuous rise sports.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Why they loses because they're losers.
Speaker 8 (28:25):
Coincidentally just happens to be coming out next week.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
What timing.
Speaker 8 (28:28):
We've seen point shaving scandals like this before. It was
the Boston College went back in the nineteen seventies. There
have been other instances in the last year or so.
But what makes this one different? Now, of course that
sports gambling is legal, I.
Speaker 3 (28:40):
Would say, for one, just how brazen it is. This
is allegedly a scheme that covered dozens of programs, affected
at least twenty nine games, as you said, and just
the amount of money at stake. There are bribing players
allegedly ten to thirty grand per game if they facilitated
this point shaving, and some of it is kind of
(29:02):
staggering if you read the indictment, including how immediate this
was that you had players in the locker room after
they had fixed the final score of the first half,
which is what a lot of these betters were gambling on,
saying things like, wow, that was so easy. It was
so easy to fix a.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Game, so unbelievable. You know, you probably have an action
you could take if you bet on those games, if
you still have the bet slip or it's you know,
on your computer or whatever, maybe in your email. You
could probably sue somebody for that because they ripped you off.
You know, it was illegal what they did. They shaved
points and did something illegal, and you it cost you money.
(29:44):
Here's a letter that we got. I've recently lost the
love of my life, passed October. She was the sweetest girl.
Her name was Ashley. She was never into radio. However,
when your show was on, she would indulge me and listen.
You made her laugh quite a few times, mister com
I spent almost thirty days in the hospital with her.
I never left her side. The fateful night she passed away,
(30:06):
I couldn't leave the hospital. I slept in my car
outside in the parking lot. Although she left this realm,
she still wanted to stay there. It's been effing tough.
Eighty seven days tonight, eighty seven days ago it happened. The
only thing that has kept me going is listening to
you and your entire crew. Well, God bless you II.
(30:28):
You guys and gals make me smile and last and laugh.
I listened to all your podcasts. You guys bring me
so much comfort, like a warm blanket. I can't explain it.
I just love each one of you, every single one
of you. Thank you for comforting me. PS you can
send a shout out to the love of my life, please.
Her name is Ashley Leloi boose Buss. She was born
(30:55):
in July nineteen eighty six and passed away in October
of twenty twenty five. She's such a sweet girl. Ashley,
God bless you and Joel Rios, God bless you as well.
