Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six and you're listening to The Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. I was writing
down the names that I want to add.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
To our VIP list, and it's a lot belly, So
there you go.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Oh yeah, So when I asked you for that, Liz,
like three weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Right, maybe that would have been a good time. Yeah, yeah,
what'd you think I was gonna do?
Speaker 4 (00:28):
Icknore me.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Boom? Is Amy King coming? No, she's not.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
I don't think so. I haven't heard back from her.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
What about Bill Handle? Yes, Gary, No, Shannon, No, Johnny Hanson.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
I'll put him down, shaky hands, come on.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
All right, I'll put him down, all right, all right,
I'll continue that. I guess I got a word to help,
all right.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
The military might be closing down the five frequent Angel.
I'm sure you've been on top of this. This is
a big deal. It's near the Marines training course or center.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Over there, Camp Pendleton, Penalton.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, a thing dong, and they're going to have fire
live AMMO from the ocean in these frigates and battleships
right over the five Freeway into the hills there of
Camp Pendleton are they going to shut it down.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Is there a word yet?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Ange, I've heard that they are not shutting it down.
I've heard that from a few different sources. Yesterday it
was a different story, but today I've been hearing negative
on shutting down the five.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
It's supposed to happen this weekend.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yes, when they were saying they would possibly shut it down,
it said for Friday and Saturday.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
But now they're saying, no, it's not shutting down.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
That would have created a nightmare for people. You had
to go to the fifteen and that's already busy. That
would have taken you five hours against San.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Diego easily, easily.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Oh man, all right, let's find out what they were
going to shut this thing down for the five Freeway
outside of Camp Pedal.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
This has been a confusing story to follow, especially if
you've got plans this weekend to go down to San
Diego on the five Freeway. There are reports the five
could be closed, then not closed.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah, it's not going to be closed, but uh, chip
Yo's didn't know that because at that time he was
doing the report, it was still up in the air.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
A lot of confusion. We think we've got some of
it straightened out. Now, what we do know is that
train service through the Orange County San Diego County area
will be effected. Talk about that in a moment, but
firstlet's talk a little bit about what was causing a
lot of this confusion. It's gonna bit called CETA Shore
going to be held at Camp Pendleton to celebrate the
marines two hundred and fiftieth birthday. Now to the Marines,
(02:49):
this will include some live fire demonstrations from some of
the equipment and some of the resources they have at
the marine base there. They do a lot of training.
It's obviously known for a great training base because of
its coastal location. Also, we're told that Secretary of War
Pete Hegseth and Vice President J. D. Vance may be
(03:10):
an attendance. So it's supposed to be a big deal.
But as you mentioned at the top, there were some
reports that the demonstrations they're doing could involve firing missiles
from ships over the five Freeway on the Camp Pendleton.
Is that true? We don't know everything we're seeing is real.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
I bet that's Drue knowing this administration. I'll bet that's true. Right.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
The sort of vie fast and loose with rules, and
I bet they're going to throw live Ammo over the
five freeway.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
So you just got to hope you get through.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Everything we're seeing is reports say. We reached out to
Camp Pendleton and asked if they could confirm whether or
not that is the case. We haven't heard back, but
what Camp Pendleton officials have said is that they have
done all safety protocols. The I five freeway does not
need to be shut down. There was confusion because there
was some tweets by Governor Gavin Newsom that they might
have to shut it down. Since been clarified, it does not.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Appear so they're going to shoot live Ammo over the
freeway without it being closed. Ah right, all right, we'll
we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Yes, life fun.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, it'd be interesting. You know there's that lookout point
there that's like halfway through. That'd be cool to stand
on there and watch these things go right over your head.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Shop bang, oh, christ.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
I five will have to be shut down for this event.
We've asked Caltrans just for one confirmation on that. Reached
out to them. Haven't heard back, but it seems like
what we're hearing now I five won't be shut down.
But what will be affected, as we are talking about,
is the train service.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Let's first, why are they shutting the trains down and
not the highway? That seems odd.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Talk about Metrolink, what's going to be happening with the
Metrolink trains during this events. According to Metrolink, Orange County
League and Inland Empire Orange County Line trains will originate
and terminate at the Lagoon and Neguel Mission via HOS station.
That's where we're at right now. It says only OCA
Line train sixteen sixty eight is expected to complete its
(05:03):
normal route, so they're going to be stopping short of
going through that area where Camp Pendleton is or near
Camp Pendleton. As far as Amtrak and Pacific Surfliner, they
put out a statement saying that they will have service
disruptions between twelve pm and three pm Saturday.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
So okay, so Amtrak is only closing for three hours
while they throw these bombs over the five Freeway.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
Taking the trains might be a pam.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
What if there's a dud, you know, one of these
bombs it's supposed to go, you know, eighteen miles into
the hillside there. It just sort of peters out and
goes right through your you know, your explorer.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
That might happen too, might be affected.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
Looks like did he say what time they were going
to do this?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Or just right is the Amtrak they're going to shut
down Dune to three, but I thought it was going
to be almost all day. You know, they're going to
be a bunch of these suckers, So I hope it
works out for you.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
Might be affected. Looks like it will be affected taking
the freeway. It doesn't look like that right now, but
it's been a confusing morning, confusing day, or so maybe
something will change. If it does, we'll let you know.
After that event. Saturday, they're going to have a beach
bash at del Mar in Del Mar in the San
Diego area. Following that event Saturday, well, keep it posted
latest we know five Freeway will stay open, trains will
(06:16):
be effective. For now. Reporting here in Laguna and Neguel,
I'm chip Yost Katsey La five weeks.
Speaker 2 (06:20):

I think, are there women Marines? I don't know. I
guess so I don't know. Are there women Marines?
Speaker 7 (08:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Are they?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Okay? Okay, okay, Okay, look, I just see a lot
of men in the ads nineteen forty eight. That was
the first woman that became a.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Marine, I believe.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
So all right, all right, did you did you want
to go that route? You're dead. You tried to push
you that way. Ellium didn't work out for you. She
put her head down. All right, bro, I'll welcome back
Dean sharplebro this we're live on KFI. Dodgers win. Everybody.
Dodgers win. They're up three to nothing against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Speaker 8 (08:55):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
The Dodgers win. There is your big local story. Dodgers win. Angel.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
What is it looking like around well, actually real quickly?
And then we got we got the Dean Sharper. What
does it look like real quickly around the state of
for people to leave right now?
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
The five southbound jammed out of Burbank all the way
to the six oh five, the one ten, both directions
southbound slowing all the way from Avenue twenty six. As
you continue all the way down almost to the one
oh five and northbound slowing through that same stretch. The
drive on the ten west, heading towards Santa Monica. That's
loading up away from the five out of Boyle Heights.
(09:37):
I mean, it's just getting worse and worse minute by minute.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
All Right, we'll keep checking back with you.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
All right, there she goes Angel, Okay, Martinez ding gong
with her.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
All right, Dean Charmon's with the Deans. Hi you Bob, hey, Bron,
great Dodgers win. How about that game? How about these Dodgers?
Speaker 5 (09:52):
Hum?
Speaker 1 (09:54):
They are dominant? Well, I cannot believe, after the season
that we've had, with the ups and the downs, that
we are one game away from the World Series.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
They've won eight out of nine games in the postseason. Yeah, yeah,
they beat let me see, they beat Cincinnati two nothing
in a best of three. Then they beat who they
play after that? Who the Dodgers play after that? God,
I've got a horrible memory. I'll tell you Philadelphia. They
(10:23):
beat Philadelphia, y oh yeah, three out of four, and
now they're up three games to non on Milwaukee.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah. I think you know. Somebody asked me the other day,
They're like, who can beat the Dodgers? And I think
the only team in Major League Baseball they can beat
the Los Angeles Dodgers. Is the Los Angeles Dodgers. Yeah,
probably right, which we have successfully done several times this season.
But when we show up, when we show up just
and decide to play, I don't think anything can stop them.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
When the postseason started for the Dodgers, they needed thirteen
victories to win the World Series. Now it's down to five.
If they win tomorrow, they need four more wins. And
then they went back to back World Series, which hasn't
been done in the United States in twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yep, yep. It's not an easy thing to do, not
at all.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Hey, we had a listener call us about your appearance
last week and they wanted to know more about Bermuda
grass and the different types of grass and what is
the best one if you could pick one that you
know it was green all year round with very little hassle.
What do you prefer like when when you're doing homes
and you know you've got the house done now you're
(11:32):
looking to you know, to for the exterior and the
yard to put that together before the people move in.
What do you recommend to people? Well, if you're gonna
go with an Eastern grass, I go with Bermuda. If
we're gonna go with something that is really California friendly,
then I like you see Verde buffalo grass. You see
(11:52):
ver day, ver day as in like the Spanish word
for green, you see ver day. It's it was developed
at the UC Riverside. A brilliant hybridized grass, buffalo grass great,
very very drought tolerant, really easy to keep in green.
And if you want to go full on California native,
there's only one source that I trust, and they've got
(12:14):
different they've got different species, So you got to go
to this website. But you would go to Delta Bluegrass
dot com Delta Bluegrass dot com and know it has
nothing to do with the Deep South or music.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
It is about. It is a nursery that up in
the Sacramento River Delta in you know, in northern California,
in the San Joaquin Valley, and they have just years
ago decided to specialize in all native California grasses. And
you think you can't have a green, thick lawn with
(12:47):
native grasses. That doesn't work. No, it's not true. You
absolutely can. So those are three those are our three
first hops. So Delta Bluegrass dot Com YEP Delta bluegrass
dot com. You see ver Day buffalo grass or Bermuda grass. Hey,
what about these?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
You know, when you're build a house nowadays, I imagine
the rules and regulations differ from city to city, county
to county, but I bet they also change statewide. Can
you build a house now with a fire with a
working fireplace in it that burns logs?
Speaker 6 (13:22):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Not in the state of California? Now, isn't that a
ft up?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I mean that's such a like a like a an
old throwback romantic piece of the house.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah, you know, it's all about emissions and energy efficiency.
I tell you what you can build. You can build
a u You can still put in like a Franklin stove.
You can put in a woodburning stove in grost places,
which are very very cool and for old school fireplace,
super efficient as far as heat retention and heat loss
(13:54):
and all of that kind of stuff. So wood stoves,
pellet stoves, those are still approved in most places in
the state. But yeah, and your classic masonry open front
wood burning fireplace is a thing of the past in California,
which you know, I really really mourned for years and
years when that first went down. Because there were there
(14:17):
were really poor replacements in the direct vent fireplace world,
you know. But now I got to tell you we're
going through a renaissance of direct vent fireplace. Direct vent fireplaces,
by the way, that's what's legal. It's a gas fireplace
in which the front is sealed you know, it's got
glass across the front and it's sealed off. And then
(14:37):
what it makes it is a very high efficiency appliance.
And yes they heat the room amazingly well better than
a regular fireplace. But the flames just used to be lame,
and now the technology is turned a corner. My favorite
direct vent fireplace manufacture, if you want to look this up,
it's Flare Flare Fireplaces. They have a burner that they
(15:01):
call the summit burner. No longer is it gas coming
out of the pan down below, and then you just
pick some concrete logs for the flames to kind of
lick around. Right now, they've actually run the gas lines
tim inside the logs. There are these open grooves in
the logs. So when you turn this fireplace on, all
of the logs are actually burning. The flames are coming
(15:24):
out from So the realism has increased exponentially and they
really are good units. And the nice thing is you
can get them long, you can get them traditional, you
can get them really contemporary looking. You don't need to
have a chimney because the venting is more like venting
a water heater out of the house. So I remember
a lot of flexibility options.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I remember when you came back from the home show
in Las Vegas, you had seen that you're first one,
and you were talking about it for ten minutes how
beautiful it was.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Yeah, yeah, they, I mean, they really are there. They're
getting to be impressive. So I'm not so sad anymore.
But yeah, I'm a you know, I mean, that's the
whole reason you go up to the mountains is to
you know, you get a you know, you know, split
some wood and that's right, crack open the fireplace. But
the good news is still in California, if you have one,
you got a wood burning fireplace, take care of it
(16:10):
because if you got it, your grandfather did. Oh good, Okay.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
My uncle up in Canada had one of those you know,
those old US like railroad pot belly coal burning stoves,
and he installed it himself and he didn't put any insulation.
When he ran it through the wall to outside, and
well that caught fire and burned down three rooms.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Those are tricky to really install. You really have to
insulate them when you when you slam it through a wall.
Well yeah, yeah, I mean yeah, you have to you
have to isolate that pipe and said it. Yeah, there's
a whole thing, right, And he did not know how
to do that and he didn't do it properly. All right,
Dean Sharper's can you stay with us?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Sure, right, excellent? All right, Dean Sharp every Saturday morning
six to eight am, every Sunday morning nine until noon.
Right here on KFI, it's Conways Show Dodgers win. They're
up three games to none against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from
KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Dodgers have defeated the Milwaukee Brewers and now are up
three games to none, which and is the best of
seven games. So the Milwaukee Brewers will have to beat
the Los Angeles Dodgers four straight games, four straight games.
That's very tough to do. Not gonna happen. Dean Sharper
(17:32):
is with us. Yeah, I don't know how they do that.
I mean it's I mean, these Dodger pitchers are just
you know, brutal on these guys. I mean, our next
two games are here, our next two games are home games. Yes,
and the Dodgers have led up one run in each
of the first three games. How do you beat a
Dodger team giving up one run? Hey, we talked about chimneys.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
I got somebody text me Buddy Mine who lives in
Sherman Oaks. He said, how much repair can you do
to the chimney? If the chimney falls down an earthquake,
can you rebuild it to save the fireplace?
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yes? Yes you can. Okay, yeah, you know, as long
as as long as it's not a total loss, you know,
as long as the firebox is still fundamentally standing, you
can repair. So, like, let's say the upper portion of
the chimney cracks and falls off, you can totally repair that,
totally rebuild it. It's good to go on that note.
But by the way, you know, most people who haven't
(18:27):
used their fireplace in a long time here get inspired
and you're like, you know what, I think I'm gonna
start using that fireplace. You should call a chimney sweep. No,
It's not like Dick van Dijk okad. But are there
are There are chimney sweep companies here in southern California
all over the place. You can call it chimney sweep.
A twenty first century chimney sweep is going to put
a scope down the flu gonna look to see if
(18:47):
there are any fractures or cracks or voids or anything
like that, and they can get you all fixed up
and tuned up so that it's safe to use that thing.
We have a fireplace, and I love it, but we
were getting so much backdrafts.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
There were so much smoke coming in the house. You know,
when the winds kick up in the valley, it blows
the you know, sometimes blows the smoke back into the house.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And I just had enough, you know, enough of it.
But I will actually happen. I will say there's a
fix for that. By the way, Yeah, I understand, But
I'm too cheap to do that. I got out my
money tied up at the track. What am I gonna
do spend money? But I will say that the people
who are selling a house with one or two fireplaces
have a tremendous advantage over somebody who doesn't have a fireplace,
(19:31):
you know, because people still are attracted to that that
feature it is. You know, I was talking to a
client about this today. Fire is just one of those things.
It's deep, deeply embedded in us. I mean, we've spent
the vast majority of our existence as a species, you know, hurdling,
you know, huddling around a fire at night. I mean,
(19:53):
it's down deep in our genetics and so yeah, hearth
and home, that's what they used to call it. Yeah, right,
that's the thing. Fire is something that just even if
you just don't ever plan on burning one in there,
there's something about a fire in the middle of a
family room or a living room or a fireplace that
just says, yeah, this is right. What do you think
(20:13):
is next?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I have a feeling, Dean that in the future they
may not allow maybe five ten years from now, they
may not allow people to build swimming pools.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
I mean honestly, I don't know about that. You know,
here's the thing. They're gonna have a big fight on
their hands, they whoever they are. You know, we heard
this like during the drought, right during the last major drought,
we heard that people were emptying pools because you know,
don't waste water. Neighbors were getting upset at other neighbors
who had pools because you're like, you're wasting one here.
(20:47):
You know what we found out, Well, we found out
when you do the science of it, that the surface
of a pool does not lose any more water than
the water that evaporates off of your lawn. Yeah. Really
really Okay, water just evaporates at a constant rate no
matter where it's at, and that top layer of water
(21:08):
is going to go whether it's out of your plants
or off the pool. So they really really aren't. And
now with variable speed and high efficiency heaters and pools,
they're really not that much of an energy anymore, really, right,
you know?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I turned my old boss, Jack Silver. I just started
working at kalis X and we you know, for about
two years, and I had a really good guy in Tarzana.
We had a pool and I had a great guy
do the tile and reservice it and he was terrific.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
And my boss was going.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
To redo his pool and said, hey, do you do
you recommend anybody for pools? I go, oh, I just
got the perfect eye and I turned it on and
turned him on to my pool guy.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Well, he went over and gave an estimate.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
He liked the price, and he said, we're going to
have to drain the pool and then fix it and
then fill it back up. Well, he drained it on
a Wednesday. Thursday was the fourth. Friday was a holiday. Saturday,
they didn't show up. Sunday, the didn't show up. By
Monday they showed up. That pool had risen out of
the ground by nine and a half inches. Yeah, that
(22:11):
can be a thing.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
They had to redot to really take you look at
the water table in the area. You don't want to
do it in the winter when the water table is high, okay,
when we've had a lot of right, because I guess
the only thing that was holding that pool down was
the weight of the water. Oh, he's gone. I knew that.
I knew if I started talking pools, he just hang up.
(22:34):
All right, Well, we'll pick him up next week. But yeah,
he's not into pools. I knew that. I got the
feeling form him. All right.
Speaker 8 (22:41):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI AM.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Six forty Dodgers win. They take a commanding three games
to none lead over the Milwaukee Brewers. The Marines, their
birthday is November tenth. The the US Navy had a
birthday as well. The US Navy's birthday is my birthday.
I should know that.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
October thirteenth, seventeen seventy five, the day the Continental Congress
established the Continental Navy, and this date is celebrated annually.
And I I didn't know that on October thirteenth, my
birthday AOC's birthday as well. Yeah, so that's kind of cool.
(23:27):
And then the birthday for the US Marines is November tenth.
This date commemorates the establishment of the Continental Marines by
the Second Continental Congress in seventeen seventy five.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
So happy birthday to the Marines in November and the
Navy on October thirteenth. There's some great audio here from
a comedian. His name is Michael Goodwin.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
And I've seen this pop up a couple times on
YouTube or TikTok, but this is a great rule of
thumb to remember if you got two things to worry
about in life. Maybe you've heard this, but I'm gonna
played for it. It's really good. Mike Goodwin is his name.
Great advice there's.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
Only two things in life that you worry about, whether
you're healthy or whether he's sick. If you're healthy, you
ain't gonna to worry about. But if you're sick, you
got two things to worry about. What are you gonna
get better? What are you gonna get worse? You get better,
(24:36):
you ain't gonna not to worry about. But if you
get worse, you got two things to worry about. Whether
you're gonna live, whether you're gonna die. If you live,
you ain't got no to worry about it.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
But if you die, you got two things.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Where you going to Heaven?
Speaker 9 (25:06):
Where you going hey, if youre going to have it,
you ain't gonnat know worry about it.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
You got two things.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Original extra Christie, that's great, very funny guy, Mike Goodwin
there in Orange County. Orange County is just fined some
dude three hundred thousand dollars for lighting illegal fireworks on
fourth of July three one hundred thousand dollars fine.
Speaker 10 (25:48):
An exasperated Jose Fernandez leaves his hearing after appealing a
three hundred thousand dollars fine he received from the City
of Stanton for allegedly setting off illegal fireworks at his
home on the fourth of July.
Speaker 11 (26:01):
Wow, I can't really have for my paying memortgage. Barely
as I got thinking Lord that I remodeled my house.
How do they space? You do be This is ridigulous.
There's nothing I can't do. No, there's I can if not, the.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
City officials use drone video as evidence to slap citations
totally nearly a million dollars on eighteen homeowners.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
How about that in Stanton, Man, they get to you
and step to you quick. They're serious about these fireworks
after the fires in January, they're deadly serious now about
people lighting off illegal fireworks.
Speaker 10 (26:36):
Fernandez, who owes the biggest fine, denies that he had
anything to do with it. So where were you when
the fireworks were going off?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Oh it's been back.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
Yeah, I was watching my sports.
Speaker 10 (26:48):
So what is your defense? What do you say, jose.
Speaker 11 (26:51):
I say that I don't have nothing to do with it.
Speaker 10 (26:54):
The citation shows the math and for Fernandez, he's been
charged one thousand dollars for three three hundred discharges totaling
three hundred grand Wow. Stanton Mayor David Shaver says homeowners
had fair warning that they'd be held accountable for illegal
activity on their property.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I'll bet there'll be a lot less fireworks in Orange
County next year.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
In that particular area, you would be tripping over the
signs that say you're going to be fined for illegal activity.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
That's true. I've seen those signs all over the place.
Speaker 7 (27:27):
Also, we did mail to all those addresses of the
property owners, especially the areas where we've had a lot
of illegal activity in the past.
Speaker 10 (27:36):
These ones might Fernandez argued his case, saying he doesn't
know who was responsible for the illegal fireworks blasts and
that he may have a chance to get his fine reduced.
How does that make you feel?
Speaker 11 (27:48):
Makes me feel a little reless.
Speaker 10 (27:50):
So you don't think you're going to have to pay
three hundred thousand.
Speaker 11 (27:53):
I could not afford it. I mean when thinking to
the Supreme cord updated.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Guy's got a sense of humorous Still, we take.
Speaker 11 (28:03):
It to the Supreme Court.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
We'll take it. I'll take you.
Speaker 11 (28:06):
I'm a retirement aget lo.
Speaker 5 (28:09):
You know.
Speaker 10 (28:10):
Once Fernandez is sent the results of his appeal, the
mayor says it is up to the city council to
make the ultimate decision as to what fine he must pay.
Wow instant it, Michelle Jeely CBSLA.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
That's incredible. That guy's got to pay three hundred thousand
dollars thousand bucks for every illegal firework that somebody lit
off at his house. Maybe he didn't do it, but
it's his house. And I have a feeling next year
it's going to be a lot quieter, because this word's
going to get out. You know, people heard it here
(28:44):
on KFI, whatever station you're listening to, or whatever your
news source is, that's going to get out there. NBC
News has just laid off one hundred and fifty employees,
which is terrible, terrible news. Termination notices went out to
one hundred and fifty NBC News Group employees Wednesday as
(29:07):
a financial health and traditional television business continues to erode.
The cuts have been anticipated for months as NBC is
seeing declines in TV ratings and AD revenue and are
not being fully offset by the growing digital business. So
audience migration to streaming platforms has put pressure on legacy
(29:27):
outlets across the media industry, and so one hundred and
fifty really decent, high paying jobs have disappeared.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Unbelievable. All right, We've got to get out of here.
Indy Reesemeier is coming up next. Dodgers win. That's the
big story here in Los Angeles. It's The Conway Show
live 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
(30:00):
Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's KFI AM six and you're listening to The Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. I was writing
down the names that I want to add.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
To our VIP list, and it's a lot belly, So
there you go.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Oh yeah, So when I asked you for that, Liz,
like three weeks ago.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Right, maybe that would have been a good time. Yeah, yeah,
what'd you think I was gonna do?
Speaker 4 (00:28):
Icknore me.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Boom? Is Amy King coming? No, she's not.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
I don't think so. I haven't heard back from her.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
What about Bill Handle? Yes, Gary, No, Shannon, No, Johnny Hanson.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
I'll put him down, shaky hands, come on.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
All right, I'll put him down, all right, all right,
I'll continue that. I guess I got a word to help,
all right.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
The military might be closing down the five frequent Angel.
I'm sure you've been on top of this. This is
a big deal. It's near the Marines training course or center.
Speaker 4 (01:09):
Over there, Camp Pendleton, Penalton.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, a thing dong, and they're going to have fire
live AMMO from the ocean in these frigates and battleships
right over the five Freeway into the hills there of
Camp Pendleton are they going to shut it down.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Is there a word yet?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Ange, I've heard that they are not shutting it down.
I've heard that from a few different sources. Yesterday it
was a different story, but today I've been hearing negative
on shutting down the five.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
It's supposed to happen this weekend.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yes, when they were saying they would possibly shut it down,
it said for Friday and Saturday.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
But now they're saying, no, it's not shutting down.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
That would have created a nightmare for people. You had
to go to the fifteen and that's already busy. That
would have taken you five hours against San.
Speaker 4 (01:59):
Diego easily, easily.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Oh man, all right, let's find out what they were
going to shut this thing down for the five Freeway
outside of Camp Pedal.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
This has been a confusing story to follow, especially if
you've got plans this weekend to go down to San
Diego on the five Freeway. There are reports the five
could be closed, then not closed.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah, it's not going to be closed, but uh, chip
Yo's didn't know that because at that time he was
doing the report, it was still up in the air.
Speaker 5 (02:26):
A lot of confusion. We think we've got some of
it straightened out. Now, what we do know is that
train service through the Orange County San Diego County area
will be effected. Talk about that in a moment, but
firstlet's talk a little bit about what was causing a
lot of this confusion. It's gonna bit called CETA Shore
going to be held at Camp Pendleton to celebrate the
marines two hundred and fiftieth birthday. Now to the Marines,
(02:49):
this will include some live fire demonstrations from some of
the equipment and some of the resources they have at
the marine base there. They do a lot of training.
It's obviously known for a great training base because of
its coastal location. Also, we're told that Secretary of War
Pete Hegseth and Vice President J. D. Vance may be
(03:10):
an attendance. So it's supposed to be a big deal.
But as you mentioned at the top, there were some
reports that the demonstrations they're doing could involve firing missiles
from ships over the five Freeway on the Camp Pendleton.
Is that true? We don't know everything we're seeing is real.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
I bet that's Drue knowing this administration. I'll bet that's true. Right.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
The sort of vie fast and loose with rules, and
I bet they're going to throw live Ammo over the
five freeway.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
So you just got to hope you get through.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Everything we're seeing is reports say. We reached out to
Camp Pendleton and asked if they could confirm whether or
not that is the case. We haven't heard back, but
what Camp Pendleton officials have said is that they have
done all safety protocols. The I five freeway does not
need to be shut down. There was confusion because there
was some tweets by Governor Gavin Newsom that they might
have to shut it down. Since been clarified, it does not.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
Appear so they're going to shoot live Ammo over the
freeway without it being closed. Ah right, all right, we'll
we'll see what happens.
Speaker 5 (04:11):
Yes, life fun.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yeah, it'd be interesting. You know there's that lookout point
there that's like halfway through. That'd be cool to stand
on there and watch these things go right over your head.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Shop bang, oh, christ.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
I five will have to be shut down for this event.
We've asked Caltrans just for one confirmation on that. Reached
out to them. Haven't heard back, but it seems like
what we're hearing now I five won't be shut down.
But what will be affected, as we are talking about,
is the train service.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Let's first, why are they shutting the trains down and
not the highway? That seems odd.
Speaker 5 (04:43):
Talk about Metrolink, what's going to be happening with the
Metrolink trains during this events. According to Metrolink, Orange County
League and Inland Empire Orange County Line trains will originate
and terminate at the Lagoon and Neguel Mission via HOS station.
That's where we're at right now. It says only OCA
Line train sixteen sixty eight is expected to complete its
(05:03):
normal route, so they're going to be stopping short of
going through that area where Camp Pendleton is or near
Camp Pendleton. As far as Amtrak and Pacific Surfliner, they
put out a statement saying that they will have service
disruptions between twelve pm and three pm Saturday.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
So okay, so Amtrak is only closing for three hours
while they throw these bombs over the five Freeway.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
Taking the trains might be a pam.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
What if there's a dud, you know, one of these
bombs it's supposed to go, you know, eighteen miles into
the hillside there. It just sort of peters out and
goes right through your you know, your explorer.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
That might happen too, might be affected.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
Looks like did he say what time they were going
to do this?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
Or just right is the Amtrak they're going to shut
down Dune to three, but I thought it was going
to be almost all day. You know, they're going to
be a bunch of these suckers, So I hope it
works out for you.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
Might be affected. Looks like it will be affected taking
the freeway. It doesn't look like that right now, but
it's been a confusing morning, confusing day, or so maybe
something will change. If it does, we'll let you know.
After that event. Saturday, they're going to have a beach
bash at del Mar in Del Mar in the San
Diego area. Following that event Saturday, well, keep it posted
latest we know five Freeway will stay open, trains will
(06:16):
be effective. For now. Reporting here in Laguna and Neguel,
I'm chip Yost Katsey La five weeks.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Well, Happy birthday to the US Marines two hundred and
fifty great years if you're a US Marine man, Happy

year before the nation was born. All right, well that's right, Tim,
that's how we won and beat the brief the Marines.

hundred and fiftieth anniversary, So congratulations and happy birthday to
the US Marines. Dig do wrong with these Marines, man,
That is a that is a special birthday, two hundred
(07:22):

Speaker 1 (07:38):
That's a Melton.
Speaker 6 (07:40):
Count bles in the air. Must be fun ryo thankey

Speaker 1 (08:00):
State's bull. Happy birthday to the Marines. And I wish
you another two fifty. That was a great run, two
hundred and fifty great years with the toughest men and women.
I think, are there women Marines? I don't know. I
guess so I don't know. Are there women Marines?
Speaker 7 (08:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Are they?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Okay? Okay, okay, Okay, look, I just see a lot
of men in the ads nineteen forty eight. That was
the first woman that became a.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Marine, I believe.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
So all right, all right, did you did you want
to go that route? You're dead. You tried to push
you that way. Ellium didn't work out for you. She
put her head down. All right, bro, I'll welcome back
Dean sharplebro this we're live on KFI. Dodgers win. Everybody.
Dodgers win. They're up three to nothing against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Speaker 8 (08:55):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
The Dodgers win. There is your big local story. Dodgers win. Angel.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
What is it looking like around well, actually real quickly?
And then we got we got the Dean Sharper. What
does it look like real quickly around the state of
for people to leave right now?
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
The five southbound jammed out of Burbank all the way
to the six oh five, the one ten, both directions
southbound slowing all the way from Avenue twenty six. As
you continue all the way down almost to the one
oh five and northbound slowing through that same stretch. The
drive on the ten west, heading towards Santa Monica. That's
loading up away from the five out of Boyle Heights.
(09:37):
I mean, it's just getting worse and worse minute by minute.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
All Right, we'll keep checking back with you.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
All right, there she goes Angel, Okay, Martinez ding gong
with her.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
All right, Dean Charmon's with the Deans. Hi you Bob, hey, Bron,
great Dodgers win. How about that game? How about these Dodgers?
Speaker 5 (09:52):
Hum?
Speaker 1 (09:54):
They are dominant? Well, I cannot believe, after the season
that we've had, with the ups and the downs, that
we are one game away from the World Series.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
They've won eight out of nine games in the postseason. Yeah, yeah,
they beat let me see, they beat Cincinnati two nothing
in a best of three. Then they beat who they
play after that? Who the Dodgers play after that? God,
I've got a horrible memory. I'll tell you Philadelphia. They
(10:23):
beat Philadelphia, y oh yeah, three out of four, and
now they're up three games to non on Milwaukee.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah. I think you know. Somebody asked me the other day,
They're like, who can beat the Dodgers? And I think
the only team in Major League Baseball they can beat
the Los Angeles Dodgers. Is the Los Angeles Dodgers. Yeah,
probably right, which we have successfully done several times this season.
But when we show up, when we show up just
and decide to play, I don't think anything can stop them.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
When the postseason started for the Dodgers, they needed thirteen
victories to win the World Series. Now it's down to five.
If they win tomorrow, they need four more wins. And
then they went back to back World Series, which hasn't
been done in the United States in twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Yep, yep. It's not an easy thing to do, not
at all.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Hey, we had a listener call us about your appearance
last week and they wanted to know more about Bermuda
grass and the different types of grass and what is
the best one if you could pick one that you
know it was green all year round with very little hassle.
What do you prefer like when when you're doing homes
and you know you've got the house done now you're
(11:32):
looking to you know, to for the exterior and the
yard to put that together before the people move in.
What do you recommend to people? Well, if you're gonna
go with an Eastern grass, I go with Bermuda. If
we're gonna go with something that is really California friendly,
then I like you see Verde buffalo grass. You see
(11:52):
ver day, ver day as in like the Spanish word
for green, you see ver day. It's it was developed
at the UC Riverside. A brilliant hybridized grass, buffalo grass great,
very very drought tolerant, really easy to keep in green.
And if you want to go full on California native,
there's only one source that I trust, and they've got
(12:14):
different they've got different species, So you got to go
to this website. But you would go to Delta Bluegrass
dot com Delta Bluegrass dot com and know it has
nothing to do with the Deep South or music.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
It is about. It is a nursery that up in
the Sacramento River Delta in you know, in northern California,
in the San Joaquin Valley, and they have just years
ago decided to specialize in all native California grasses. And
you think you can't have a green, thick lawn with
(12:47):
native grasses. That doesn't work. No, it's not true. You
absolutely can. So those are three those are our three
first hops. So Delta Bluegrass dot Com YEP Delta bluegrass
dot com. You see ver Day buffalo grass or Bermuda grass. Hey,
what about these?
Speaker 2 (13:06):
You know, when you're build a house nowadays, I imagine
the rules and regulations differ from city to city, county
to county, but I bet they also change statewide. Can
you build a house now with a fire with a
working fireplace in it that burns logs?
Speaker 6 (13:22):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (13:23):
Not in the state of California? Now, isn't that a
ft up?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I mean that's such a like a like a an
old throwback romantic piece of the house.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Yeah, you know, it's all about emissions and energy efficiency.
I tell you what you can build. You can build
a u You can still put in like a Franklin stove.
You can put in a woodburning stove in grost places,
which are very very cool and for old school fireplace,
super efficient as far as heat retention and heat loss
(13:54):
and all of that kind of stuff. So wood stoves,
pellet stoves, those are still approved in most places in
the state. But yeah, and your classic masonry open front
wood burning fireplace is a thing of the past in California,
which you know, I really really mourned for years and
years when that first went down. Because there were there
(14:17):
were really poor replacements in the direct vent fireplace world,
you know. But now I got to tell you we're
going through a renaissance of direct vent fireplace. Direct vent fireplaces,
by the way, that's what's legal. It's a gas fireplace
in which the front is sealed you know, it's got
glass across the front and it's sealed off. And then
(14:37):
what it makes it is a very high efficiency appliance.
And yes they heat the room amazingly well better than
a regular fireplace. But the flames just used to be lame,
and now the technology is turned a corner. My favorite
direct vent fireplace manufacture, if you want to look this up,
it's Flare Flare Fireplaces. They have a burner that they
(15:01):
call the summit burner. No longer is it gas coming
out of the pan down below, and then you just
pick some concrete logs for the flames to kind of
lick around. Right now, they've actually run the gas lines
tim inside the logs. There are these open grooves in
the logs. So when you turn this fireplace on, all
of the logs are actually burning. The flames are coming
(15:24):
out from So the realism has increased exponentially and they
really are good units. And the nice thing is you
can get them long, you can get them traditional, you
can get them really contemporary looking. You don't need to
have a chimney because the venting is more like venting
a water heater out of the house. So I remember
a lot of flexibility options.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
I remember when you came back from the home show
in Las Vegas, you had seen that you're first one,
and you were talking about it for ten minutes how
beautiful it was.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Yeah, yeah, they, I mean, they really are there. They're
getting to be impressive. So I'm not so sad anymore.
But yeah, I'm a you know, I mean, that's the
whole reason you go up to the mountains is to
you know, you get a you know, you know, split
some wood and that's right, crack open the fireplace. But
the good news is still in California, if you have one,
you got a wood burning fireplace, take care of it
(16:10):
because if you got it, your grandfather did. Oh good, Okay.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
My uncle up in Canada had one of those you know,
those old US like railroad pot belly coal burning stoves,
and he installed it himself and he didn't put any insulation.
When he ran it through the wall to outside, and
well that caught fire and burned down three rooms.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Those are tricky to really install. You really have to
insulate them when you when you slam it through a wall.
Well yeah, yeah, I mean yeah, you have to you
have to isolate that pipe and said it. Yeah, there's
a whole thing, right, And he did not know how
to do that and he didn't do it properly. All right,
Dean Sharper's can you stay with us?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Sure?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Sure, right, excellent? All right, Dean Sharp every Saturday morning
six to eight am, every Sunday morning nine until noon.
Right here on KFI, it's Conways Show Dodgers win. They're
up three games to none against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de Mayo from
KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Dodgers have defeated the Milwaukee Brewers and now are up
three games to none, which and is the best of
seven games. So the Milwaukee Brewers will have to beat
the Los Angeles Dodgers four straight games, four straight games.
That's very tough to do. Not gonna happen. Dean Sharper
(17:32):
is with us. Yeah, I don't know how they do that.
I mean it's I mean, these Dodger pitchers are just
you know, brutal on these guys. I mean, our next
two games are here, our next two games are home games. Yes,
and the Dodgers have led up one run in each
of the first three games. How do you beat a
Dodger team giving up one run? Hey, we talked about chimneys.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
I got somebody text me Buddy Mine who lives in
Sherman Oaks. He said, how much repair can you do
to the chimney? If the chimney falls down an earthquake,
can you rebuild it to save the fireplace?
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yes? Yes you can. Okay, yeah, you know, as long
as as long as it's not a total loss, you know,
as long as the firebox is still fundamentally standing, you
can repair. So, like, let's say the upper portion of
the chimney cracks and falls off, you can totally repair that,
totally rebuild it. It's good to go on that note.
But by the way, you know, most people who haven't
(18:27):
used their fireplace in a long time here get inspired
and you're like, you know what, I think I'm gonna
start using that fireplace. You should call a chimney sweep. No,
It's not like Dick van Dijk okad. But are there
are There are chimney sweep companies here in southern California
all over the place. You can call it chimney sweep.
A twenty first century chimney sweep is going to put
a scope down the flu gonna look to see if
(18:47):
there are any fractures or cracks or voids or anything
like that, and they can get you all fixed up
and tuned up so that it's safe to use that thing.
We have a fireplace, and I love it, but we
were getting so much backdrafts.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
There were so much smoke coming in the house. You know,
when the winds kick up in the valley, it blows
the you know, sometimes blows the smoke back into the house.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And I just had enough, you know, enough of it.
But I will actually happen. I will say there's a
fix for that. By the way, Yeah, I understand, But
I'm too cheap to do that. I got out my
money tied up at the track. What am I gonna
do spend money? But I will say that the people
who are selling a house with one or two fireplaces
have a tremendous advantage over somebody who doesn't have a fireplace,
(19:31):
you know, because people still are attracted to that that
feature it is. You know, I was talking to a
client about this today. Fire is just one of those things.
It's deep, deeply embedded in us. I mean, we've spent
the vast majority of our existence as a species, you know, hurdling,
you know, huddling around a fire at night. I mean,
(19:53):
it's down deep in our genetics and so yeah, hearth
and home, that's what they used to call it. Yeah, right,
that's the thing. Fire is something that just even if
you just don't ever plan on burning one in there,
there's something about a fire in the middle of a
family room or a living room or a fireplace that
just says, yeah, this is right. What do you think
(20:13):
is next?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
I have a feeling, Dean that in the future they
may not allow maybe five ten years from now, they
may not allow people to build swimming pools.
Speaker 1 (20:25):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
I mean honestly, I don't know about that. You know,
here's the thing. They're gonna have a big fight on
their hands, they whoever they are. You know, we heard
this like during the drought, right during the last major drought,
we heard that people were emptying pools because you know,
don't waste water. Neighbors were getting upset at other neighbors
who had pools because you're like, you're wasting one here.
(20:47):
You know what we found out, Well, we found out
when you do the science of it, that the surface
of a pool does not lose any more water than
the water that evaporates off of your lawn. Yeah. Really
really Okay, water just evaporates at a constant rate no
matter where it's at, and that top layer of water
(21:08):
is going to go whether it's out of your plants
or off the pool. So they really really aren't. And
now with variable speed and high efficiency heaters and pools,
they're really not that much of an energy anymore, really, right,
you know?
Speaker 2 (21:22):
I turned my old boss, Jack Silver. I just started
working at kalis X and we you know, for about
two years, and I had a really good guy in Tarzana.
We had a pool and I had a great guy
do the tile and reservice it and he was terrific.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
And my boss was going.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
To redo his pool and said, hey, do you do
you recommend anybody for pools? I go, oh, I just
got the perfect eye and I turned it on and
turned him on to my pool guy.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Well, he went over and gave an estimate.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
He liked the price, and he said, we're going to
have to drain the pool and then fix it and
then fill it back up. Well, he drained it on
a Wednesday. Thursday was the fourth. Friday was a holiday. Saturday,
they didn't show up. Sunday, the didn't show up. By
Monday they showed up. That pool had risen out of
the ground by nine and a half inches. Yeah, that
(22:11):
can be a thing.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
They had to redot to really take you look at
the water table in the area. You don't want to
do it in the winter when the water table is high, okay,
when we've had a lot of right, because I guess
the only thing that was holding that pool down was
the weight of the water. Oh, he's gone. I knew that.
I knew if I started talking pools, he just hang up.
(22:34):
All right, Well, we'll pick him up next week. But yeah,
he's not into pools. I knew that. I got the
feeling form him. All right.

And I I didn't know that on October thirteenth, my
birthday AOC's birthday as well. Yeah, so that's kind of cool.
(23:27):
And then the birthday for the US Marines is November tenth.
This date commemorates the establishment of the Continental Marines by
the Second Continental Congress in seventeen seventy five.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
So happy birthday to the Marines in November and the
Navy on October thirteenth. There's some great audio here from
a comedian. His name is Michael Goodwin.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
And I've seen this pop up a couple times on
YouTube or TikTok, but this is a great rule of
thumb to remember if you got two things to worry
about in life. Maybe you've heard this, but I'm gonna
played for it. It's really good. Mike Goodwin is his name.
Great advice there's.
Speaker 9 (24:15):
Only two things in life that you worry about, whether
you're healthy or whether he's sick. If you're healthy, you
ain't gonna to worry about. But if you're sick, you
got two things to worry about. What are you gonna
get better? What are you gonna get worse? You get better,
(24:36):
you ain't gonna not to worry about. But if you
get worse, you got two things to worry about. Whether
you're gonna live, whether you're gonna die. If you live,
you ain't got no to worry about it.
Speaker 5 (24:58):
But if you die, you got two things.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
Where you going to Heaven?
Speaker 9 (25:06):
Where you going hey, if youre going to have it,
you ain't gonnat know worry about it.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
You got two things.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
Original extra Christie, that's great, very funny guy, Mike Goodwin
there in Orange County. Orange County is just fined some
dude three hundred thousand dollars for lighting illegal fireworks on
fourth of July three one hundred thousand dollars fine.
Speaker 10 (25:48):
An exasperated Jose Fernandez leaves his hearing after appealing a
three hundred thousand dollars fine he received from the City
of Stanton for allegedly setting off illegal fireworks at his
home on the fourth of July.
Speaker 11 (26:01):
Wow, I can't really have for my paying memortgage. Barely
as I got thinking Lord that I remodeled my house.
How do they space? You do be This is ridigulous.
There's nothing I can't do. No, there's I can if not, the.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
City officials use drone video as evidence to slap citations
totally nearly a million dollars on eighteen homeowners.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
How about that in Stanton, Man, they get to you
and step to you quick. They're serious about these fireworks
after the fires in January, they're deadly serious now about
people lighting off illegal fireworks.
Speaker 10 (26:36):
Fernandez, who owes the biggest fine, denies that he had
anything to do with it. So where were you when
the fireworks were going off?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Oh it's been back.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
Yeah, I was watching my sports.
Speaker 10 (26:48):
So what is your defense? What do you say, jose.
Speaker 11 (26:51):
I say that I don't have nothing to do with it.
Speaker 10 (26:54):
The citation shows the math and for Fernandez, he's been
charged one thousand dollars for three three hundred discharges totaling
three hundred grand Wow. Stanton Mayor David Shaver says homeowners
had fair warning that they'd be held accountable for illegal
activity on their property.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I'll bet there'll be a lot less fireworks in Orange
County next year.
Speaker 7 (27:15):
In that particular area, you would be tripping over the
signs that say you're going to be fined for illegal activity.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
That's true. I've seen those signs all over the place.
Speaker 7 (27:27):
Also, we did mail to all those addresses of the
property owners, especially the areas where we've had a lot
of illegal activity in the past.
Speaker 10 (27:36):
These ones might Fernandez argued his case, saying he doesn't
know who was responsible for the illegal fireworks blasts and
that he may have a chance to get his fine reduced.
How does that make you feel?
Speaker 11 (27:48):
Makes me feel a little reless.
Speaker 10 (27:50):
So you don't think you're going to have to pay
three hundred thousand.
Speaker 11 (27:53):
I could not afford it. I mean when thinking to
the Supreme cord updated.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
Guy's got a sense of humorous Still, we take.
Speaker 11 (28:03):
It to the Supreme Court.
Speaker 5 (28:04):
We'll take it. I'll take you.
Speaker 11 (28:06):
I'm a retirement aget lo.
Speaker 5 (28:09):
You know.
Speaker 10 (28:10):
Once Fernandez is sent the results of his appeal, the
mayor says it is up to the city council to
make the ultimate decision as to what fine he must pay.
Wow instant it, Michelle Jeely CBSLA.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
That's incredible. That guy's got to pay three hundred thousand
dollars thousand bucks for every illegal firework that somebody lit
off at his house. Maybe he didn't do it, but
it's his house. And I have a feeling next year
it's going to be a lot quieter, because this word's
going to get out. You know, people heard it here
(28:44):
on KFI, whatever station you're listening to, or whatever your
news source is, that's going to get out there. NBC
News has just laid off one hundred and fifty employees,
which is terrible, terrible news. Termination notices went out to
one hundred and fifty NBC News Group employees Wednesday as
(29:07):
a financial health and traditional television business continues to erode.
The cuts have been anticipated for months as NBC is
seeing declines in TV ratings and AD revenue and are
not being fully offset by the growing digital business. So
audience migration to streaming platforms has put pressure on legacy
(29:27):
outlets across the media industry, and so one hundred and
fifty really decent, high paying jobs have disappeared.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
Unbelievable. All right, We've got to get out of here.
Indy Reesemeier is coming up next. Dodgers win. That's the
big story here in Los Angeles. It's The Conway Show
