Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
All right, got a lot going on.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Lot's happening here in Los Angeles, including there are Deli's,
Langers Deli, Great Deli in the against the Echo Park
area in downtown LA off Wiltshire and Thing. It's there
Alvarado and he's been struggling for a while because of
(00:30):
the homelessness and the filth on the street. He's always
threatening to close. And now his latest dilemma at Langers
is the price of eggs. He's adding a did I.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Get this right? Steph USh, is a fifty dollars charge
for every egg.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
It's not right. It seems high. That seems pretty high.
It seems high, or maybe it's fifty cents. All right, Now,
let's get into it.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Those egg prices getting pretty painful out there, the uptaking
prices now being reflected of course in grocery stores, but
now also at restaurants who are passing on that cost
to their customers, including right here at LA's Lingers Deli.
Now the deli themselves, LA Institution releasing a statement over
the weekend from Norm Langer himself, who's set in part quote.
(01:14):
While some restaurants are raising menu prices across the board,
we've opted for a temporary, modest fifty cent per egg
surcharge to help offset costs amid the bird flu turmoil
while keeping our legendary pastrami sandwiches and other favorites accessible
to our loyal customers.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
All right, well, who cares.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I don't need eggs anyway, so it really doesn't bother me.
If it doesn't bother me, then I could give a redsess.
But I don't know how many omelets go. How many
eggs going to an omelet? I don't know. Maybe it's
three or four.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I just bought at eight ninety nine, and it was
hard for me to even put it in my basket.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
The grocery prices were supposed to.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
Be going down. They are not going down.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
All right.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
This jump in egg prices mainly because of a bird
flu epidemic outbreaks reported in eight states, including right here
in California, with whole flocks having to be killed in
order to prevent the spread of the disease, and California
egg prices are particularly high because the state relies largely
on its own production of eggs. President Trump acknowledging the
bird flu but also blaming former President Joe Biden for
(02:20):
these price hikes.
Speaker 7 (02:21):
Listen, egg prices.
Speaker 8 (02:22):
It reached it all time high.
Speaker 9 (02:24):
Blue.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
It was a long before I ever got here. It
was at all time distance.
Speaker 10 (02:28):
I remember, I've been here for three weeks, and when
you saw the inflation numbers.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
I've been here for three weeks. I have had nothing
to do with inflation. This was goosed by Biden.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
All right, Eggs getting to be so expensive that this
is what they're doing over in New York City. They're
Bodega's starting to sell loose eggs called lucy.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Oh that's great, What a time we live in Okay,
goes Hey, give me a lucy. I want you just
buy a pack of cigarettes. No, not a cigarette dime,
but give me an egg, a lucy egg. I've never
heard that before. That's great.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I love that. That is awesome. That's a great term.
A lusy. Yeah, it's got the lucy.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Eggs or Bodega's starting to sell loose eggs called lucies.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
The modegas are like a seven to eleven out here.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You can see here they're selling the eggs in a bag,
hoping it'll help customers afford at least a few county.
Speaker 11 (03:15):
Is really bad right now for people are struggling three
day families. So you know, eight prices are here. Good,
it's three four dollars in the zip block bag. You
can't go wrong. It helps you out, holds the community out. No,
it's a win win situation.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Now back here in californa great attitude. I like that guy.
Speaker 11 (03:33):
Know it's a win win situation.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Now back here in California. We've seen groceries limiting how
many eggs you can buy. Trader Joe's, for example, only
allowing you to take out and purchase a dozen eggs
at one time. Now, as far as the prices go,
in terms of an average egg price for a dozen eggs,
we're looking at nine dollars. Of course you've seen a
little bit higher, a little bit lower, but it's going
to run you about nine bucks for a dozen eggs.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, nine bucks, that's a odd Just I got an idea.
Stop eating. Yeah, we'll wait till they go back down
to two fifty dozen. Then load up, load up on
the eggs, all right, Calabasas I think we started this
on KFI. On this show, nobody was talking about Calabasas
before we were nobody was not on anybody's radar. And
(04:17):
I heard about this little tiny meeting going out at
Calabasas City Hall. Went out there, sat through the meeting.
The auditorium or the city hall was packed with people
out there in calabases They got a beautiful town out there.
I was completely unaware that they even had a landfill
out there, let alone, you know, transporting, or at least
(04:39):
the plan is to transport a lot of the toxic
material from the fires. And people are they've had it
in Calabasas. They're saying no, no, nay, never, no nay never,
no more. They want it all shut down.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Still very early.
Speaker 12 (04:54):
One of the gates here at the landfill was just
opened a few moments ago. But we're not expecting trucks
with the fire debris to startup arriving until eight a m.
Part of a community group called Protect Calabasis says they
will be here at that time and they'll do what
they can to try and stop the trucks. Let me
show you what happened this weekend. That group protested outside
the landfills on Saturday. They say Calabasas Landfill is close
(05:17):
to both schools and parks, and that's why there have
always been special rules here. Only solid waste from the
Calabasas Watershed was accepted. In the past, hazardous materials were
not allowed, but now exceptions are being made for fire debris,
and city leaders in Calabasas say they weren't.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Consulted here from the mayor.
Speaker 12 (05:36):
Community members here are worried that there might be toxins
in the fire debris that could pose a health threat.
This weekend we saw the Army Corps of Engineers starting
the Phase two debris removal process at Palisades Charter High School.
They are working at an unprecedented speed and that has
led to some questions. Now, FEMA says they're only removing
the top six inches of soil from burned properties. They
(05:57):
are not testing for toxins. The agency put out statement explaining,
in part, this is because contamination deeper than three to
six inches is unlikely to be attributable to the fire
itself and does not pose an immediate threat to public
health and safety.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Oh who believes that? Who believes this statement?
Speaker 12 (06:14):
This is because contamination deeper than three to six inches
is unlikely to be attributable to the fire itself.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Okay, this is anyone more comfortable in Calabases after that
statement and does.
Speaker 12 (06:26):
Not pose an immediate threat to public health and safety?
Speaker 2 (06:28):
How about that statement from the government and does not.
Speaker 12 (06:31):
Pose an immediate threat to public health and safety.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
I bet there's nobody in Calabases that believes that. There's
not a single man, woman, or child in Calabass that
believes this.
Speaker 12 (06:40):
Statement and does not pose an immediate threat to public
health and safety.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Nobody, nobody believes that.
Speaker 12 (06:45):
Decisions regarding additional soil testing and over excavation are left
to state and local authorities. So again, as we come
back out your live, we are expecting protesters to be
here around eight am and then later on today in
this afternoon, the Calabasis City Council has already scheduled a
special meeting, even though it's a holiday. They're going to
be talking with the city attorney see if maybe they
(07:05):
can file a temporary restraining order and if that might
be able to stop the plan of bring debris here.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
All right, Well, the fight goes on in Calabasas. They
don't want any of those toxins in their landfill. I
get it, I understand it.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demyan from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Well, there's a company town.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Show Biz is the business, and either you're in it,
or you know somebody in it, or your business relies
on people who are in show business. Maybe you own
a cleaner's right. Whenever they talk about union striking or
the downturn in Hollywood, they always mentioned cleaners, like celebrities
the only people who go to cleaners, But they always
(07:51):
talked about the cleaners.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
So I mentioned him.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
But these are the movies that are up for Best
Picture this year. Let's see one flow Over, The Cuckoo's Nest, Jaws,
Nash Sunshine Boys. Wait, this is a wrong list. Bub
this is nineteen seventy five. This sounded a little off. Yeah,
(08:19):
this is twenty twenty five. What a comparison, though, Amelia
Perez Complete Unknown Conclave, Nickel Boys, I'm still here, The Substance,
Dune Part two, Wicked and Nora, and they're brutalists. You know,
I'm glad you're in Rona because you're a big movie buff.
(08:40):
Have you seen them all?
Speaker 6 (08:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I haven't.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
And this is one of those years where they just
plain don't all interest me. I saw The Brutalist I
think last weekend or the weekend before that. That's like
three and a half hours, and it's good, but it's
half a day of movie. You want half a day
watching a movie? I I me and my lovely wife.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
On Saturday, we decided to go to the movies, and
so of course I take, you know, nine shots of
vod because she drives out of voy Yeah. Yeah, look,
she's doing her job driving. I got to do my
job drinking. And we get to the Burbank Cinema eight,
Burbank AMC eight, and we look down and you know,
(09:21):
now you can pick out your seats. You don't have
to just go in blind. You can pick out where
your seat, where you sit. And I noticed they were
only single seats left. We got there around nine to
forty five.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
For which movie?
Speaker 6 (09:32):
For the substance completely sold out. Wow, well, let's get
some legs on it, because that's been out for a while.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Isn't that crazy? Completely sold out.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
I'm glad to see that picking up momentum, though, because
it kind of has the makings of like a David
Cronenberg cult type of movie Make Get Right. I think everybody,
like mainstream audiences, might be a little put off by
the end of that movie.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
It does grow some people out. Yeah, but I I
thought she was great. I I think she'll win for
Best Hour. I hope she wins. You know, if she
does great, If she doesn't, it's not going to change
my life.
Speaker 6 (10:06):
You ever notice, how whenever an actress is described as
giving a brave performance, that generally means they're naked.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
That's right, that was a very brave performance.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
That's the bravest performance I've seen all year, although they
were pretty brave.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
And and Nora that that's true.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
And for people have not seen the substance we're talking
about Demi Moore or Demi Moore, I don't know how
to pronounce it. Him and she's completely nude in the movie. Man,
I could use a little of that about thirty years. Yeah,
it's really three decades to pay that off. Yeah, that
would have been nice, wasn't she and a Few good
Men she wash? Yeah, I'd like to have seen that.
(10:44):
You know, I'm in a Few good Men like that
uniform A few years late is the name of that movie.
I think but One of a Few Good Men is
one of my favorite movies of all time. I really
enjoyed that great dialogue that picture. Yeah, it was very
well written. It wasn't that Aaron Sorkin who exactly exactly?
And like the opening scene where the Marines are in
line with the guns, you know, and practicing it, you know,
(11:07):
their line formation with the guns, that was really cool.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
Well I don't think we could have foreseen that all
this time later. Really Nicholson was the good guy in
that movie.
Speaker 10 (11:14):
Yeah, okay, But even back when I watched it, you
know what, in the eighties or so, I always thought
Nicholson was the good guy.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Oh well, yeah, I thought like, oh, that guy deserved it.
He should have been killed. You know, I know what
s throw him, you know, he's the Marines got doubt,
But I thought that that do you say, Demi Moore
or Demi Moore?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I think it's to me? To me?
Speaker 6 (11:40):
Okay, I thought she was great. I thought she was fantastic.
Oh yeah, she just no vanity in that there's no
room for vanity in it. They make her as at
the same time as attractive and also as unappealing as
humanly possible.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Within the same movie.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Okay, I'd ask my wife questions during it because I
don't I don't track things that well, I'm to uh
ocd with stuff. But you remember when she lived across
the hall when she was she wasn't the younger version,
she was her set herself, and she lived across that
the hall from that goofy guy that knew her from
a past relationship or past life. You know, he knew
(12:16):
her like twenty or thirty years ago, and he couldn't
believe that she you know, he's living across the hall
from her, and he asked her out, and then she
grabs the phone number, you know, a couple weeks later
and and like asks him out. I never understood why
she did that.
Speaker 6 (12:29):
Uh, that's not the freshest part in my mind.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
You couldn't get past her her boobs.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Well, having seen how it ends, you know that that'll
kind of supersede everything else he watched because the ending
is pretty gonzo, right En.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Nig's ready reminded me of the movie Carrie, you know
at the end where everything just breaks loose and it
gets with a lot of pigs blood. Yeah, exactly, But
I and man, it is such a crazy commentary on
youth and and and what you'll do to fight for it.
Speaker 6 (13:01):
You know, it really is some on the nose feminist commentary.
It is, and that director. I did another female revenge movie.
It's available on shutter and I haven't watched it yet
because looking at the trailer, I think I pretty much
know everything that's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
You know, I'll bet you anything who directed the substance?
You know, I don't remember eat. I'll bet you anything
that that they were that Is it a girl or
a boy?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I don't even know that.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Okay, I'll bet you's a fan of Paul Thomas Anderson.
There's like a lot of Paul Thomas Anderson's style shots
in there, especially in the opening one of the first
scenes where the managers eating like crawfish or shrimp, and
you could just see close ups of him eating and
all that gross crap.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
Are you one of those people like me who you've
got the thing where you can't stand eating noises from
other people?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Yes? Yeah, that was disgusting.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Yeah, I am one hundred percent there, and I think
my daughter caught a bit of that from me. But yeah,
the chewing, and I can hear if I'm at a restaurant,
I can hear people eat.
Speaker 6 (14:04):
It drives me me so phony, I think is the
word for that. And there's no need to run within
the obvious direction with that. But yeah, that drives me insane.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
But I hope she wins.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
She gave such a great speech after she won the
Golden Globe where you know where she was told she
was a popcorn actress and she never deserved any you know,
accolades or any you know, decent awards, and then she
won the Golden Globe for Best Actress.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
So helpe she.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
I think that she was onto something. She has some
self perception because I was never a huge to me
more fan. And then I saw that movie and I
was like, where did this all come from? I had
no idea that she could do that.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Yeah, it was. It was great.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It was It was terrific, and it was such an
original movie. You know, I love the way it was shot.
It was just such a cool movie. My wife bailed,
like with twenty minutes ago. She got to had to
go throw up.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
Oh come on, well yeah, actually that happened to me
when I took the long Stuffer one to see The Exorcist.
She passed out in the lobby. Oh is that right?
And I'm sitting in the theater thinking, boy, if she
went to the bathroom, that's a long number two. I better,
But she wouldn't want me to miss any of this,
so I'll just wait till she comes back.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Oh that's great, man. I enjoyed that. You, if you
get a chance, go see the substance. We ended up
we couldn't get the theater because it was sold out,
so we went home and rented it for five dollars
and ninety nine cents or so.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Which was a better deal.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
But because we were already at the theater, we got
a medium cop popcorn and a medium drink and it
was only nineteen dollars and seventy five cents.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (15:35):
We all went to see the Captain America movie last week,
and I was fascinated by what everybody's food costs. And
Fush got some mac and cheese balls and a big
tub of popcorn.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Killed them all. By the way. Oh wow, that was
like over twenty bucks, wasn't it. Foosh? Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
That makes sense because I was listening to you and
Moe and Steph Fuje last week and you kept talking
about cheese balls, and I couldn't put it together where
why they came into the picture. But it was at
the theater. You got cheeseballs at a theater that's like macaroni. Yeah,
macaroni cheeseballs. Wow, really really good.
Speaker 6 (16:08):
That must have been like twice as much as the
actual movie ticket though. That's an impressive cost for that food.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And and a real sort of an interesting duke where
nobody suspected the guy would come up with the cheeseballs.
You know, it's popcorn, candy and a soda, and he
went for the option of cheese. Cheeseballs came with it.
I think it was like six or seven. But they're
pretty good size. Were they like pears or golf ball size?
(16:36):
I would say a little bit bigger than like a
pool ball. Wow, and you pound all huh.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Yeah, delicious sign Actually I think I finished it before
the movie even started.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Any Jesus good, any ketchup or sauce, any dipping sauce?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Oh yeah they oh yeah, they gave you like a
Marinia sauce. That was really good that it came with loup.
I didn't realize that. Yeah, it was delicious.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
Man.
Speaker 4 (16:59):
And then yeah, and then I finished off the popcorn
because you know that's my thing. Wait a minute, you
got both well, most kind enough to buy me the
mac and cheese balls.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
I was cool of him. And then I got pop
a large popcorn and a large drink. You have like
a bathtub sized popping It was pretty bad. It was enormous.
You weren't in like a food comb after that. Oh no,
that movie was was a lot of fun. So it
kept me like, was it a good movie? Yeah, it
was good. I liked it. There you go check it out.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
All right, I'm gonna I'm gonna watch all the movies
nominated this year. I think there's ten of them. Yeah,
let me know when you watch Emilia Peiz. Okay, all right,
I think that's gonna be my favorite one. I think
you're the demographic for that. Oh yeah, there's here's what
I know about it. There's there's a transsexual angle.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
This is what I hear. Okay, all right. And and look,
I'm a I'm an ally.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
You know.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I think I'm the only ally on radio. No, No,
I'm right there with you.
Speaker 6 (17:55):
I don't I don't want to watch all my allies
do everything they do. But but you get to beat
the guinea pig on this one.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
That's classic. Man. All right, ding dong. The Oscars coming up.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I'm gonna try to watch all the movies before they
have their final awards.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
If you missed it over the weekend, Team USA beat
Team Canada in hockey to go on to the finals.
They're going to play again Thursday. It was in Montreal.
The game was in Montreal on Saturday. Man, it was
a hell of game. There were three fights in the
first nine seconds of that game, two fights before the
game even started, puck drop one fight, puck drop second fight,
(18:43):
and then seven seconds later another one. Three fights in
the first nine seconds, and a lot of it was
based on the fact that the Canadians who were in
attendance were booing during our national anthem, during the United
States national anthem, and that pumped up the USA team.
They got really pissed about that and it motivated them
(19:05):
to destroy Canada three to one.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It was a chant that they had before the game.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
And these kids, well not kids, I think they ranged
from twenty to thirty five, but this USA hockey team
is great. And they had this chant at the beginning,
right before they went out and played Canada. I think
this is before the game. I'm gonna play it for you.
There's a swear word in it, so be careful stuff,
which I think they bleeped it out. I think they
(19:33):
bleeped it out. So here's Team can Here's Team USA
in their locker room with all twenty five twenty six
players all on one knee, shoulder to shoulder with their
arms draped over each other's shoulders in a big circle.
And this is the cheer that they belt it out.
(19:54):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Don't you drive.
Speaker 13 (20:00):
You?
Speaker 11 (20:01):
Yes, you.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Said, I came my hand te me off to.
Speaker 7 (20:09):
A foreign.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Start.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
I don't very far.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
I don't very far.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
My god, my god. Wait, that's great man. That team
is pumped. You watch it? Angel? Did you watch the game?
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I did? I.
Speaker 13 (20:38):
Oh my gosh, I was going crazy those first nine seconds.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
That was insane. It was awesome.
Speaker 12 (20:44):
Man.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
They went up there and destroyed that team. That was well,
there's a there's a rematch, right.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Yeah, Canada beat I think they beat Sweden today, so
or Finland. They beat Finland five to three, so on
Thursday night at five. I think it's gonna be on
ABC Channel seven. If not, you can catch it on
TNT or Max or True Canadians versus the United States.
But this time it's not gonna be in Montreal. It's
(21:11):
gonna be in Boston. Home court, home ice advantage. And
if you know anything about the United States, the one
city where you never ever boo the national anthem is Boston, Massachusetts.
They will kill you for that. They literally will jump
on the ice and cut your throat if you do that.
(21:32):
So it'll be interesting to see if enough Canadians show
up and boo the national anthem in Boston, and the
fights that break out on the ice will pale in
comparison to the fights in the stands. If that happens,
they are a real big raw Raw pro USA crew
in Boston, Massachusetts.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
I can't wait. It's gonna be a great game. All right.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
We have other news here back here in Southern California,
and we've got some pretty bad news when it comes
to gas prices.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
You're not gonna believe this game.
Speaker 14 (22:04):
Gas prices have spiked across southern California in the past month.
According to Triple A, the average price for a gallon
of regular gas in la is now four dollars in
seventy seven cents.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
For seventy seven. Where'd they get that bargain? I paid
five forty over the weekend.
Speaker 14 (22:19):
Is now four dollars in seventy seven cents.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
No, you know what that means? Long lines at Costco.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Everyone's always trying to save nine cents a gallon, and
they all go to Costco, and I always get behind
the seventy five year old guy who's pumping gas for
the first time, and he doesn't know how to use
his Costco card, does not use his credit card, and
I just put it in park and I start reading
(22:45):
a book.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I'm going to be there for quite some time.
Speaker 14 (22:48):
It's thirty cents more than a month ago. In Orange County,
it's four to seventy five per gallon of regular, and
it's for sixty five per gallon in Riverside County. So
what's driving up the increase?
Speaker 2 (22:57):
That's right, what's going on?
Speaker 14 (22:59):
According to tri it's typical to see increases this time
of year as we head into the warmer months.
Speaker 15 (23:04):
Gas is always more expensive during the summertime because of
the summer blend, but also because there is an increase
in demand as well. A lot more people are taking vacations,
They're driving a lot more.
Speaker 14 (23:15):
Triple A also says maintenance and outages and refineries are
pushing prices higher. There are a couple of things you
can do to control what you spend on gas. Those
include making sure your vehicle is on schedule with maintenance,
and also shopping around for gas stations that might have
some lower prices at the pump.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Wait, what about the excuse you used here? I'm why
it's so expensive.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
There is an.
Speaker 15 (23:36):
Increase in demand. A lot more people are taking vacations.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Wait what more people are taking vacation A lot more
people are what A lot.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
More people are taking vacations.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
A lot more people are taking vacations. Who the f
is vacationing? Imagine that in twenty twenty five, all the fires,
the floods, the airplane accidents, and the guys like, yeah,
I'm going to Hawaii with the family for a week.
You were never telling you by that. You'd say, you're
going your your your your grandmother's dying, You're going back
to you know, Cleveland for a week. You would ever
(24:08):
boast about going on vacation you can't tell your friends
or family you're going on vacation. Well, everybody's home has
been burned to the ground. You should never tell anybody that.
You should tell people there's an illness in the family.
We're going back to a visit Aunt Jean in Detroit.
But don't tell everybody you're going to Hawaii.
Speaker 7 (24:28):
A lot more people are taking vacation.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
A lot more people are taking vacation. Who are those people?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And and and the best tip you'll get all day
do not tell your friends or family you're going on vacation.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
A lot more people are taking vacation.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Oh my god, world do we live in? Yeah, I'm
got everything going on. Yeah, I made some money in
the stock market. Real estate's brooming for me. So not
two weeks in a Hawaii on vacation. I'm gonna enjoy it.
Staying at it's about twelve hundred bucks a night, getting
an joining room for the kids, and we're just gonna
get you know, surf and turf every night. Yeah, that's
we're gonna munch down. Well, we're staying on Kona.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
God Almighty.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
If you drive around Los Angeles, you've seen these bus
lanes where they're supposed to be for buses only, and
we all ignore them and we just park our car there. Anyway, Well,
guess what now it's ticket time. You're gonna get a
ticket if you get caught in one of these bus lanes.
So it gotta be aware. It's gonna be pretty pricey.
So you gotta bail, got to get out of the
bus lanes. They want people out of those bus lanes,
(25:43):
mostly the bus drivers want you out.
Speaker 14 (25:45):
You have a habit of parking in metro bus lanes.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Yes, yes, I do.
Speaker 14 (25:49):
There's a warning.
Speaker 16 (25:50):
The city is going to start ticketing parked cars along
Bolshire Boulevard and Lebrim. The Department of Transportation is targeting
the seven to twenty bus lane that runs from downtown
all the way to Santa Monica. By leaders will face
it ticket costing nearly three hundred.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Dollars e three hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
So if you're listening and your one of your hobbies
or habits is the park in a bus lane, it's
going to cost you a three hundred bucks every time
you do it. Three hundred dollars. That's a lot. That's
a lot, all right. Disney has Luxury Living in Contino.
I think they call it Contino. Yeah, it's five He's
(26:24):
near Palm Springs.
Speaker 17 (26:25):
A story Living by Disney Community, and Rancho Mirage is
centered Dolcome its first resident Rancho Mirage.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
It's a Disney community.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
They have these down in Florida, but this, I believe
this is the first one in southern California.
Speaker 18 (26:36):
Each of our communities is going to be a unique
offering for our residents of a lifestyle and amenities, something
I would say nobody else can do like Disney.
Speaker 17 (26:46):
The centerpiece of the new development is Katino Bay, a
twenty four acre man made lagoon.
Speaker 18 (26:52):
It is going to be a centerpiece of the offering.
So they'll have private beaches.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Sounds great. I love private beaches.
Speaker 18 (26:58):
Private beaches, they'll have kaya, they'll have paddle boats. Then
when we open Town Center, which is over in the cross,
we will have a public beach that will be where
the public will be able to purchase a ticket to
use the public beach area if they so choose.
Speaker 17 (27:14):
Mestled along the shore is Katino's Artisan club and par house,
which is inspired by the mid century modern home in
the movie Incredibles Too.
Speaker 8 (27:22):
Truly, we are.
Speaker 18 (27:23):
Taking an animator vision of a home that we created
for Incredibles Too, and we are literally going to build
the real life version of the par House. So the
Parhouse will be the icon for Cartino.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
So this is a Disney community. Disney owns everything. I
don't know if you can buy the property or it's
a long term lease, whatever, but I think I think
you have to be okayed to get into the community.
I don't think they just buy or sell or rent anybody.
I think you have to I don't know if they
do a criminal check, background or whatever, but I think
(27:57):
they sniff around to see if you're you know, if
you're up to par when it comes to living in
a Disney community, which is good for the other people
live in the Disney community. They want to know what's
going on with you.
Speaker 17 (28:08):
When complete, the six hundred acres of Katino will include
nearly two thousand homes, plus a hotel, community parks with
shopping and dining.
Speaker 9 (28:17):
We really wanted to honor that intersection of Walt's ability
to come out here and find creative inspiration with the
beauty that we have out here. This is a community
that is all about following that spark and finding that
creativity and really seeing wherever it takes you.
Speaker 17 (28:36):
Model home tours are now underway, single family homes starting
in the upper one millions, with villa estates starting in
the upper four millions in Rancho Barrage. Philip Palmer, ABC
seven Eyewitness News.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
You know, these communities, these Disney communities started back when
Michael Eisner was the CEO or the not CEO, I
think he was the chairman of the board. But they
they pitch this idea over and over and over, and
he always said no, he didn't want to do that,
you know, he didn't want that kind of you know,
exposure of people living in a Disney community if if
(29:11):
anything happens, you know, they blamed Disney whatever. And they
finally convinced them to do this, and they open up
their first one. I believe it's outside of Orlando or Tampa,
somewhere in Florida. And he said, on one condition, he said,
you can do this. You can sell you know, homes
and condos and and you know, put up the stores
(29:31):
and have commercial property. On one condition. And they said,
what's the condition. And he said, if he gets any
complaint even one. He's going to shut the whole thing down.
That's a great story. True story too. Michael Aisner said,
I don't want anyone complaining. And I guess these communities
(29:53):
are very successful. I'd like to retire in one of
those communities. It's like living at Disneyland. That's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Great.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
I all right, let's get before we get out of here.
Duke's Restaurant is back in the news. Duke's Restaurant seems
to have been in the news almost every day since
the fires. It survived the first fire. It survived the
Franklin fire, which was the first fire. It survived the
second one. It's now survived the downpour that we had
(30:22):
where money was. Water was coming down the I think
it's Los Flora's Los Palmas whatever. That canyon is there
and mud nearly wiped out the restaurant that they called
Dukes in Malibu. Let's find out if they were able
to open it up here.
Speaker 13 (30:40):
Operation clean up underway Saturday morning at Duke's. Piles and
piles of mud pushed away from the front parking lot.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
It's the mud side.
Speaker 19 (30:51):
It took us out this time.
Speaker 13 (30:53):
The culprit, this money Debrif flow that came down Las
Flora's Canyon and over pH during this week's rainstorm. The
damage that Duke's goes far beyond the exterior.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
The whole in tier of the restaurant took a big
hit of muddy water.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
Oh how Dukes has had a double punch, first the
fires and then the floods.
Speaker 6 (31:12):
Pretty Much every surface on the lower level has mud
or water in it.
Speaker 8 (31:15):
The good news is the last couple of days we've
been able to get a lot of that water out
of there. We're working to do that again today and
I think after today it'll be a good start for them.
Speaker 13 (31:25):
Duke's, a staple in a Maligi community, has already endured
so much.
Speaker 7 (31:30):
This mud the latest blow.
Speaker 19 (31:32):
I'm in triple whammy if you think about it, because
you had Franklin fire in December, Palace Dates fire in January,
and then now this. We flooded back in twenty eleven,
which was pretty substantial, but this is much worse.
Speaker 13 (31:44):
Everyone determined to do whatever it takes to get this
place back up and running.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
We're just trying to do whatever we can to just
get them back up on their feet. You know, Duke's
being you know, such an important part of Ballibu.
Speaker 19 (31:57):
We want to be open. We want to be a
place to.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Think that guy's got that Alibu accent.
Speaker 8 (32:01):
We're just trying to do whatever we can to just
get them back up on their feet. You know, Duke's being,
you know, such an important part of Balibu.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Yeah, Duke's model, Duke's you know.
Speaker 8 (32:12):
Duke's being, you know, such an important part of Balibu.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
It's totally important.
Speaker 19 (32:16):
We want to be open. We want to be a
place that they can see.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
I love Dukes. Duke's is the best.
Speaker 19 (32:20):
Continue to gather. We want to continue to serve our community.
It's gonna take some time, so we really appreciate all
the love we've gotten.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Those reverse that reverse signal has got to drive those
people crazy all day long.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
It's the signal of a tractor in reverse.
Speaker 19 (32:38):
It's gonna take some time, so we really appreciate all
the love we've gotten on social media and everybody reaching out.
And we'll get open as soon as we can.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
All right, We're gonna let you know when Duke's open.
Speaker 13 (32:47):
And as you can see, the work continues here behind us.
It's been NonStop since this morning. The bottom line here
from Dukes is they are coming back stronger than ever.
You're asking for patience and hope to be back. Duke
reporting in Malibui mon on that ABC seven.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
I will all right, We'll let you know when the
Duke's finally opens up. Mo Kelly his whole crew next
right here on KFI AM six forty Conway Show on
demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now, you can always hear
us live on KFI AM six forty four to seven
pm Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand on the
(33:22):
iHeartRadio app
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
All right, got a lot going on.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Lot's happening here in Los Angeles, including there are Deli's,
Langers Deli, Great Deli in the against the Echo Park
area in downtown LA off Wiltshire and Thing. It's there
Alvarado and he's been struggling for a while because of
(00:30):
the homelessness and the filth on the street. He's always
threatening to close. And now his latest dilemma at Langers
is the price of eggs. He's adding a did I.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Get this right? Steph USh, is a fifty dollars charge
for every egg.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
It's not right. It seems high. That seems pretty high.
It seems high, or maybe it's fifty cents. All right, Now,
let's get into it.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
Those egg prices getting pretty painful out there, the uptaking
prices now being reflected of course in grocery stores, but
now also at restaurants who are passing on that cost
to their customers, including right here at LA's Lingers Deli.
Now the deli themselves, LA Institution releasing a statement over
the weekend from Norm Langer himself, who's set in part quote.
(01:14):
While some restaurants are raising menu prices across the board,
we've opted for a temporary, modest fifty cent per egg
surcharge to help offset costs amid the bird flu turmoil
while keeping our legendary pastrami sandwiches and other favorites accessible
to our loyal customers.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
All right, well, who cares.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
I don't need eggs anyway, so it really doesn't bother me.
If it doesn't bother me, then I could give a redsess.
But I don't know how many omelets go. How many
eggs going to an omelet? I don't know. Maybe it's
three or four.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I just bought at eight ninety nine, and it was
hard for me to even put it in my basket.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
The grocery prices were supposed to.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
Be going down. They are not going down.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
All right.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
This jump in egg prices mainly because of a bird
flu epidemic outbreaks reported in eight states, including right here
in California, with whole flocks having to be killed in
order to prevent the spread of the disease, and California
egg prices are particularly high because the state relies largely
on its own production of eggs. President Trump acknowledging the
bird flu but also blaming former President Joe Biden for
(02:20):
these price hikes.
Speaker 7 (02:21):
Listen, egg prices.
Speaker 8 (02:22):
It reached it all time high.
Speaker 9 (02:24):
Blue.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
It was a long before I ever got here. It
was at all time distance.
Speaker 10 (02:28):
I remember, I've been here for three weeks, and when
you saw the inflation numbers.
Speaker 5 (02:32):
I've been here for three weeks. I have had nothing
to do with inflation. This was goosed by Biden.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
All right, Eggs getting to be so expensive that this
is what they're doing over in New York City. They're
Bodega's starting to sell loose eggs called lucy.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Oh that's great, What a time we live in Okay,
goes Hey, give me a lucy. I want you just
buy a pack of cigarettes. No, not a cigarette dime,
but give me an egg, a lucy egg. I've never
heard that before. That's great.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
I love that. That is awesome. That's a great term.
A lusy. Yeah, it's got the lucy.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Eggs or Bodega's starting to sell loose eggs called lucies.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
The modegas are like a seven to eleven out here.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
You can see here they're selling the eggs in a bag,
hoping it'll help customers afford at least a few county.
Speaker 11 (03:15):
Is really bad right now for people are struggling three
day families. So you know, eight prices are here. Good,
it's three four dollars in the zip block bag. You
can't go wrong. It helps you out, holds the community out. No,
it's a win win situation.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Now back here in californa great attitude. I like that guy.
Speaker 11 (03:33):
Know it's a win win situation.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Now back here in California. We've seen groceries limiting how
many eggs you can buy. Trader Joe's, for example, only
allowing you to take out and purchase a dozen eggs
at one time. Now, as far as the prices go,
in terms of an average egg price for a dozen eggs,
we're looking at nine dollars. Of course you've seen a
little bit higher, a little bit lower, but it's going
to run you about nine bucks for a dozen eggs.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Yeah, nine bucks, that's a odd Just I got an idea.
Stop eating. Yeah, we'll wait till they go back down
to two fifty dozen. Then load up, load up on
the eggs, all right, Calabasas I think we started this
on KFI. On this show, nobody was talking about Calabasas
before we were nobody was not on anybody's radar. And
(04:17):
I heard about this little tiny meeting going out at
Calabasas City Hall. Went out there, sat through the meeting.
The auditorium or the city hall was packed with people
out there in calabases They got a beautiful town out there.
I was completely unaware that they even had a landfill
out there, let alone, you know, transporting, or at least
(04:39):
the plan is to transport a lot of the toxic
material from the fires. And people are they've had it
in Calabasas. They're saying no, no, nay, never, no nay never,
no more. They want it all shut down.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Still very early.
Speaker 12 (04:54):
One of the gates here at the landfill was just
opened a few moments ago. But we're not expecting trucks
with the fire debris to startup arriving until eight a m.
Part of a community group called Protect Calabasis says they
will be here at that time and they'll do what
they can to try and stop the trucks. Let me
show you what happened this weekend. That group protested outside
the landfills on Saturday. They say Calabasas Landfill is close
(05:17):
to both schools and parks, and that's why there have
always been special rules here. Only solid waste from the
Calabasas Watershed was accepted. In the past, hazardous materials were
not allowed, but now exceptions are being made for fire debris,
and city leaders in Calabasas say they weren't.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Consulted here from the mayor.
Speaker 12 (05:36):
Community members here are worried that there might be toxins
in the fire debris that could pose a health threat.
This weekend we saw the Army Corps of Engineers starting
the Phase two debris removal process at Palisades Charter High School.
They are working at an unprecedented speed and that has
led to some questions. Now, FEMA says they're only removing
the top six inches of soil from burned properties. They
(05:57):
are not testing for toxins. The agency put out statement explaining,
in part, this is because contamination deeper than three to
six inches is unlikely to be attributable to the fire
itself and does not pose an immediate threat to public
health and safety.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Oh who believes that? Who believes this statement?
Speaker 12 (06:14):
This is because contamination deeper than three to six inches
is unlikely to be attributable to the fire itself.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Okay, this is anyone more comfortable in Calabases after that
statement and does.
Speaker 12 (06:26):
Not pose an immediate threat to public health and safety?
Speaker 2 (06:28):
How about that statement from the government and does not.
Speaker 12 (06:31):
Pose an immediate threat to public health and safety.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
I bet there's nobody in Calabases that believes that. There's
not a single man, woman, or child in Calabass that
believes this.
Speaker 12 (06:40):
Statement and does not pose an immediate threat to public
health and safety.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Nobody, nobody believes that.
Speaker 12 (06:45):
Decisions regarding additional soil testing and over excavation are left
to state and local authorities. So again, as we come
back out your live, we are expecting protesters to be
here around eight am and then later on today in
this afternoon, the Calabasis City Council has already scheduled a
special meeting, even though it's a holiday. They're going to
be talking with the city attorney see if maybe they
(07:05):
can file a temporary restraining order and if that might
be able to stop the plan of bring debris here.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
All right, Well, the fight goes on in Calabasas. They
don't want any of those toxins in their landfill. I
get it, I understand it.
Speaker 5 (07:20):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demyan from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
Well, there's a company town.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Show Biz is the business, and either you're in it,
or you know somebody in it, or your business relies
on people who are in show business. Maybe you own
a cleaner's right. Whenever they talk about union striking or
the downturn in Hollywood, they always mentioned cleaners, like celebrities
the only people who go to cleaners, But they always
(07:51):
talked about the cleaners.
Speaker 2 (07:52):
So I mentioned him.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
But these are the movies that are up for Best
Picture this year. Let's see one flow Over, The Cuckoo's Nest, Jaws,
Nash Sunshine Boys. Wait, this is a wrong list. Bub
this is nineteen seventy five. This sounded a little off. Yeah,
(08:19):
this is twenty twenty five. What a comparison, though, Amelia
Perez Complete Unknown Conclave, Nickel Boys, I'm still here, The Substance,
Dune Part two, Wicked and Nora, and they're brutalists. You know,
I'm glad you're in Rona because you're a big movie buff.
(08:40):
Have you seen them all?
Speaker 6 (08:42):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:42):
I haven't.
Speaker 6 (08:42):
And this is one of those years where they just
plain don't all interest me. I saw The Brutalist I
think last weekend or the weekend before that. That's like
three and a half hours, and it's good, but it's
half a day of movie. You want half a day
watching a movie? I I me and my lovely wife.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
On Saturday, we decided to go to the movies, and
so of course I take, you know, nine shots of
vod because she drives out of voy Yeah. Yeah, look,
she's doing her job driving. I got to do my
job drinking. And we get to the Burbank Cinema eight,
Burbank AMC eight, and we look down and you know,
(09:21):
now you can pick out your seats. You don't have
to just go in blind. You can pick out where
your seat, where you sit. And I noticed they were
only single seats left. We got there around nine to
forty five.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
For which movie?
Speaker 6 (09:32):
For the substance completely sold out. Wow, well, let's get
some legs on it, because that's been out for a while.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Isn't that crazy? Completely sold out.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
I'm glad to see that picking up momentum, though, because
it kind of has the makings of like a David
Cronenberg cult type of movie Make Get Right. I think everybody,
like mainstream audiences, might be a little put off by
the end of that movie.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
It does grow some people out. Yeah, but I I
thought she was great. I I think she'll win for
Best Hour. I hope she wins. You know, if she
does great, If she doesn't, it's not going to change
my life.
Speaker 6 (10:06):
You ever notice, how whenever an actress is described as
giving a brave performance, that generally means they're naked.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
That's right, that was a very brave performance.
Speaker 6 (10:16):
That's the bravest performance I've seen all year, although they
were pretty brave.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
And and Nora that that's true.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
And for people have not seen the substance we're talking
about Demi Moore or Demi Moore, I don't know how
to pronounce it. Him and she's completely nude in the movie. Man,
I could use a little of that about thirty years. Yeah,
it's really three decades to pay that off. Yeah, that
would have been nice, wasn't she and a Few good
Men she wash? Yeah, I'd like to have seen that.
(10:44):
You know, I'm in a Few good Men like that
uniform A few years late is the name of that movie.
I think but One of a Few Good Men is
one of my favorite movies of all time. I really
enjoyed that great dialogue that picture. Yeah, it was very
well written. It wasn't that Aaron Sorkin who exactly exactly?
And like the opening scene where the Marines are in
line with the guns, you know, and practicing it, you know,
(11:07):
their line formation with the guns, that was really cool.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
Well I don't think we could have foreseen that all
this time later. Really Nicholson was the good guy in
that movie.
Speaker 10 (11:14):
Yeah, okay, But even back when I watched it, you
know what, in the eighties or so, I always thought
Nicholson was the good guy.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Oh well, yeah, I thought like, oh, that guy deserved it.
He should have been killed. You know, I know what
s throw him, you know, he's the Marines got doubt,
But I thought that that do you say, Demi Moore
or Demi Moore?
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I think it's to me? To me?
Speaker 6 (11:40):
Okay, I thought she was great. I thought she was fantastic.
Oh yeah, she just no vanity in that there's no
room for vanity in it. They make her as at
the same time as attractive and also as unappealing as
humanly possible.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Within the same movie.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Okay, I'd ask my wife questions during it because I
don't I don't track things that well, I'm to uh
ocd with stuff. But you remember when she lived across
the hall when she was she wasn't the younger version,
she was her set herself, and she lived across that
the hall from that goofy guy that knew her from
a past relationship or past life. You know, he knew
(12:16):
her like twenty or thirty years ago, and he couldn't
believe that she you know, he's living across the hall
from her, and he asked her out, and then she
grabs the phone number, you know, a couple weeks later
and and like asks him out. I never understood why
she did that.
Speaker 6 (12:29):
Uh, that's not the freshest part in my mind.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
You couldn't get past her her boobs.
Speaker 6 (12:35):
Well, having seen how it ends, you know that that'll
kind of supersede everything else he watched because the ending
is pretty gonzo, right En.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
Nig's ready reminded me of the movie Carrie, you know
at the end where everything just breaks loose and it
gets with a lot of pigs blood. Yeah, exactly, But
I and man, it is such a crazy commentary on
youth and and and what you'll do to fight for it.
Speaker 6 (13:01):
You know, it really is some on the nose feminist commentary.
It is, and that director. I did another female revenge movie.
It's available on shutter and I haven't watched it yet
because looking at the trailer, I think I pretty much
know everything that's gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
You know, I'll bet you anything who directed the substance?
You know, I don't remember eat. I'll bet you anything
that that they were that Is it a girl or
a boy?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
I don't even know that.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Okay, I'll bet you's a fan of Paul Thomas Anderson.
There's like a lot of Paul Thomas Anderson's style shots
in there, especially in the opening one of the first
scenes where the managers eating like crawfish or shrimp, and
you could just see close ups of him eating and
all that gross crap.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
Are you one of those people like me who you've
got the thing where you can't stand eating noises from
other people?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Yes? Yeah, that was disgusting.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Yeah, I am one hundred percent there, and I think
my daughter caught a bit of that from me. But yeah,
the chewing, and I can hear if I'm at a restaurant,
I can hear people eat.
Speaker 6 (14:04):
It drives me me so phony, I think is the
word for that. And there's no need to run within
the obvious direction with that. But yeah, that drives me insane.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
But I hope she wins.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
She gave such a great speech after she won the
Golden Globe where you know where she was told she
was a popcorn actress and she never deserved any you know,
accolades or any you know, decent awards, and then she
won the Golden Globe for Best Actress.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
So helpe she.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
I think that she was onto something. She has some
self perception because I was never a huge to me
more fan. And then I saw that movie and I
was like, where did this all come from? I had
no idea that she could do that.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Yeah, it was. It was great.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It was It was terrific, and it was such an
original movie. You know, I love the way it was shot.
It was just such a cool movie. My wife bailed,
like with twenty minutes ago. She got to had to
go throw up.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
Oh come on, well yeah, actually that happened to me
when I took the long Stuffer one to see The Exorcist.
She passed out in the lobby. Oh is that right?
And I'm sitting in the theater thinking, boy, if she
went to the bathroom, that's a long number two. I better,
But she wouldn't want me to miss any of this,
so I'll just wait till she comes back.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Oh that's great, man. I enjoyed that. You, if you
get a chance, go see the substance. We ended up
we couldn't get the theater because it was sold out,
so we went home and rented it for five dollars
and ninety nine cents or so.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Which was a better deal.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
But because we were already at the theater, we got
a medium cop popcorn and a medium drink and it
was only nineteen dollars and seventy five cents.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Okay.
Speaker 6 (15:35):
We all went to see the Captain America movie last week,
and I was fascinated by what everybody's food costs. And
Fush got some mac and cheese balls and a big
tub of popcorn.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
Killed them all. By the way. Oh wow, that was
like over twenty bucks, wasn't it. Foosh? Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
That makes sense because I was listening to you and
Moe and Steph Fuje last week and you kept talking
about cheese balls, and I couldn't put it together where
why they came into the picture. But it was at
the theater. You got cheeseballs at a theater that's like macaroni. Yeah,
macaroni cheeseballs. Wow, really really good.
Speaker 6 (16:08):
That must have been like twice as much as the
actual movie ticket though. That's an impressive cost for that food.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And and a real sort of an interesting duke where
nobody suspected the guy would come up with the cheeseballs.
You know, it's popcorn, candy and a soda, and he
went for the option of cheese. Cheeseballs came with it.
I think it was like six or seven. But they're
pretty good size. Were they like pears or golf ball size?
(16:36):
I would say a little bit bigger than like a
pool ball. Wow, and you pound all huh.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Yeah, delicious sign Actually I think I finished it before
the movie even started.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Any Jesus good, any ketchup or sauce, any dipping sauce?
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Oh yeah they oh yeah, they gave you like a
Marinia sauce. That was really good that it came with loup.
I didn't realize that. Yeah, it was delicious.
Speaker 8 (16:58):
Man.
Speaker 4 (16:59):
And then yeah, and then I finished off the popcorn
because you know that's my thing. Wait a minute, you
got both well, most kind enough to buy me the
mac and cheese balls.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
I was cool of him. And then I got pop
a large popcorn and a large drink. You have like
a bathtub sized popping It was pretty bad. It was enormous.
You weren't in like a food comb after that. Oh no,
that movie was was a lot of fun. So it
kept me like, was it a good movie? Yeah, it
was good. I liked it. There you go check it out.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
All right, I'm gonna I'm gonna watch all the movies
nominated this year. I think there's ten of them. Yeah,
let me know when you watch Emilia Peiz. Okay, all right,
I think that's gonna be my favorite one. I think
you're the demographic for that. Oh yeah, there's here's what
I know about it. There's there's a transsexual angle.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
This is what I hear. Okay, all right. And and look,
I'm a I'm an ally.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
You know.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I think I'm the only ally on radio. No, No,
I'm right there with you.
Speaker 6 (17:55):
I don't I don't want to watch all my allies
do everything they do. But but you get to beat
the guinea pig on this one.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
That's classic. Man. All right, ding dong. The Oscars coming up.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I'm gonna try to watch all the movies before they
have their final awards.
Speaker 5 (18:13):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
If you missed it over the weekend, Team USA beat
Team Canada in hockey to go on to the finals.
They're going to play again Thursday. It was in Montreal.
The game was in Montreal on Saturday. Man, it was
a hell of game. There were three fights in the
first nine seconds of that game, two fights before the
game even started, puck drop one fight, puck drop second fight,
(18:43):
and then seven seconds later another one. Three fights in
the first nine seconds, and a lot of it was
based on the fact that the Canadians who were in
attendance were booing during our national anthem, during the United
States national anthem, and that pumped up the USA team.
They got really pissed about that and it motivated them
(19:05):
to destroy Canada three to one.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
It was a chant that they had before the game.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
And these kids, well not kids, I think they ranged
from twenty to thirty five, but this USA hockey team
is great. And they had this chant at the beginning,
right before they went out and played Canada. I think
this is before the game. I'm gonna play it for you.
There's a swear word in it, so be careful stuff,
which I think they bleeped it out. I think they
(19:33):
bleeped it out. So here's Team can Here's Team USA
in their locker room with all twenty five twenty six
players all on one knee, shoulder to shoulder with their
arms draped over each other's shoulders in a big circle.
And this is the cheer that they belt it out.
(19:54):
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Don't you drive.
Speaker 13 (20:00):
You?
Speaker 11 (20:01):
Yes, you.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Said, I came my hand te me off to.
Speaker 7 (20:09):
A foreign.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
Start.
Speaker 7 (20:16):
I don't very far.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
I don't very far.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
My god, my god. Wait, that's great man. That team
is pumped. You watch it? Angel? Did you watch the game?
Speaker 1 (20:37):
I did? I.
Speaker 13 (20:38):
Oh my gosh, I was going crazy those first nine seconds.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
That was insane. It was awesome.
Speaker 12 (20:44):
Man.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
They went up there and destroyed that team. That was well,
there's a there's a rematch, right.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Yeah, Canada beat I think they beat Sweden today, so
or Finland. They beat Finland five to three, so on
Thursday night at five. I think it's gonna be on
ABC Channel seven. If not, you can catch it on
TNT or Max or True Canadians versus the United States.
But this time it's not gonna be in Montreal. It's
(21:11):
gonna be in Boston. Home court, home ice advantage. And
if you know anything about the United States, the one
city where you never ever boo the national anthem is Boston, Massachusetts.
They will kill you for that. They literally will jump
on the ice and cut your throat if you do that.
(21:32):
So it'll be interesting to see if enough Canadians show
up and boo the national anthem in Boston, and the
fights that break out on the ice will pale in
comparison to the fights in the stands. If that happens,
they are a real big raw Raw pro USA crew
in Boston, Massachusetts.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
I can't wait. It's gonna be a great game. All right.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
We have other news here back here in Southern California,
and we've got some pretty bad news when it comes
to gas prices.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
You're not gonna believe this game.
Speaker 14 (22:04):
Gas prices have spiked across southern California in the past month.
According to Triple A, the average price for a gallon
of regular gas in la is now four dollars in
seventy seven cents.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
For seventy seven. Where'd they get that bargain? I paid
five forty over the weekend.
Speaker 14 (22:19):
Is now four dollars in seventy seven cents.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
No, you know what that means? Long lines at Costco.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Everyone's always trying to save nine cents a gallon, and
they all go to Costco, and I always get behind
the seventy five year old guy who's pumping gas for
the first time, and he doesn't know how to use
his Costco card, does not use his credit card, and
I just put it in park and I start reading
(22:45):
a book.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
I'm going to be there for quite some time.
Speaker 14 (22:48):
It's thirty cents more than a month ago. In Orange County,
it's four to seventy five per gallon of regular, and
it's for sixty five per gallon in Riverside County. So
what's driving up the increase?
Speaker 2 (22:57):
That's right, what's going on?
Speaker 14 (22:59):
According to tri it's typical to see increases this time
of year as we head into the warmer months.
Speaker 15 (23:04):
Gas is always more expensive during the summertime because of
the summer blend, but also because there is an increase
in demand as well. A lot more people are taking vacations,
They're driving a lot more.
Speaker 14 (23:15):
Triple A also says maintenance and outages and refineries are
pushing prices higher. There are a couple of things you
can do to control what you spend on gas. Those
include making sure your vehicle is on schedule with maintenance,
and also shopping around for gas stations that might have
some lower prices at the pump.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Wait, what about the excuse you used here? I'm why
it's so expensive.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
There is an.
Speaker 15 (23:36):
Increase in demand. A lot more people are taking vacations.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Wait what more people are taking vacation A lot more
people are what A lot.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
More people are taking vacations.
Speaker 1 (23:44):
A lot more people are taking vacations. Who the f
is vacationing? Imagine that in twenty twenty five, all the fires,
the floods, the airplane accidents, and the guys like, yeah,
I'm going to Hawaii with the family for a week.
You were never telling you by that. You'd say, you're
going your your your your grandmother's dying, You're going back
to you know, Cleveland for a week. You would ever
(24:08):
boast about going on vacation you can't tell your friends
or family you're going on vacation. Well, everybody's home has
been burned to the ground. You should never tell anybody that.
You should tell people there's an illness in the family.
We're going back to a visit Aunt Jean in Detroit.
But don't tell everybody you're going to Hawaii.
Speaker 7 (24:28):
A lot more people are taking vacation.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
A lot more people are taking vacation. Who are those people?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
And and and the best tip you'll get all day
do not tell your friends or family you're going on vacation.
Speaker 7 (24:46):
A lot more people are taking vacation.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Oh my god, world do we live in? Yeah, I'm
got everything going on. Yeah, I made some money in
the stock market. Real estate's brooming for me. So not
two weeks in a Hawaii on vacation. I'm gonna enjoy it.
Staying at it's about twelve hundred bucks a night, getting
an joining room for the kids, and we're just gonna
get you know, surf and turf every night. Yeah, that's
we're gonna munch down. Well, we're staying on Kona.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
God Almighty.
Speaker 5 (25:14):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
If you drive around Los Angeles, you've seen these bus
lanes where they're supposed to be for buses only, and
we all ignore them and we just park our car there. Anyway, Well,
guess what now it's ticket time. You're gonna get a
ticket if you get caught in one of these bus lanes.
So it gotta be aware. It's gonna be pretty pricey.
So you gotta bail, got to get out of the
bus lanes. They want people out of those bus lanes,
(25:43):
mostly the bus drivers want you out.
Speaker 14 (25:45):
You have a habit of parking in metro bus lanes.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Yes, yes, I do.
Speaker 14 (25:49):
There's a warning.
Speaker 16 (25:50):
The city is going to start ticketing parked cars along
Bolshire Boulevard and Lebrim. The Department of Transportation is targeting
the seven to twenty bus lane that runs from downtown
all the way to Santa Monica. By leaders will face
it ticket costing nearly three hundred.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Dollars e three hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
So if you're listening and your one of your hobbies
or habits is the park in a bus lane, it's
going to cost you a three hundred bucks every time
you do it. Three hundred dollars. That's a lot. That's
a lot, all right. Disney has Luxury Living in Contino.
I think they call it Contino. Yeah, it's five He's
(26:24):
near Palm Springs.
Speaker 17 (26:25):
A story Living by Disney Community, and Rancho Mirage is
centered Dolcome its first resident Rancho Mirage.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
It's a Disney community.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
They have these down in Florida, but this, I believe
this is the first one in southern California.
Speaker 18 (26:36):
Each of our communities is going to be a unique
offering for our residents of a lifestyle and amenities, something
I would say nobody else can do like Disney.
Speaker 17 (26:46):
The centerpiece of the new development is Katino Bay, a
twenty four acre man made lagoon.
Speaker 18 (26:52):
It is going to be a centerpiece of the offering.
So they'll have private beaches.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Sounds great. I love private beaches.
Speaker 18 (26:58):
Private beaches, they'll have kaya, they'll have paddle boats. Then
when we open Town Center, which is over in the cross,
we will have a public beach that will be where
the public will be able to purchase a ticket to
use the public beach area if they so choose.
Speaker 17 (27:14):
Mestled along the shore is Katino's Artisan club and par house,
which is inspired by the mid century modern home in
the movie Incredibles Too.
Speaker 8 (27:22):
Truly, we are.
Speaker 18 (27:23):
Taking an animator vision of a home that we created
for Incredibles Too, and we are literally going to build
the real life version of the par House. So the
Parhouse will be the icon for Cartino.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
So this is a Disney community. Disney owns everything. I
don't know if you can buy the property or it's
a long term lease, whatever, but I think I think
you have to be okayed to get into the community.
I don't think they just buy or sell or rent anybody.
I think you have to I don't know if they
do a criminal check, background or whatever, but I think
(27:57):
they sniff around to see if you're you know, if
you're up to par when it comes to living in
a Disney community, which is good for the other people
live in the Disney community. They want to know what's
going on with you.
Speaker 17 (28:08):
When complete, the six hundred acres of Katino will include
nearly two thousand homes, plus a hotel, community parks with
shopping and dining.
Speaker 9 (28:17):
We really wanted to honor that intersection of Walt's ability
to come out here and find creative inspiration with the
beauty that we have out here. This is a community
that is all about following that spark and finding that
creativity and really seeing wherever it takes you.
Speaker 17 (28:36):
Model home tours are now underway, single family homes starting
in the upper one millions, with villa estates starting in
the upper four millions in Rancho Barrage. Philip Palmer, ABC
seven Eyewitness News.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
You know, these communities, these Disney communities started back when
Michael Eisner was the CEO or the not CEO, I
think he was the chairman of the board. But they
they pitch this idea over and over and over, and
he always said no, he didn't want to do that,
you know, he didn't want that kind of you know,
exposure of people living in a Disney community if if
(29:11):
anything happens, you know, they blamed Disney whatever. And they
finally convinced them to do this, and they open up
their first one. I believe it's outside of Orlando or Tampa,
somewhere in Florida. And he said, on one condition, he said,
you can do this. You can sell you know, homes
and condos and and you know, put up the stores
(29:31):
and have commercial property. On one condition. And they said,
what's the condition. And he said, if he gets any
complaint even one. He's going to shut the whole thing down.
That's a great story. True story too. Michael Aisner said,
I don't want anyone complaining. And I guess these communities
(29:53):
are very successful. I'd like to retire in one of
those communities. It's like living at Disneyland. That's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Great.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
I all right, let's get before we get out of here.
Duke's Restaurant is back in the news. Duke's Restaurant seems
to have been in the news almost every day since
the fires. It survived the first fire. It survived the
Franklin fire, which was the first fire. It survived the
second one. It's now survived the downpour that we had
(30:22):
where money was. Water was coming down the I think
it's Los Flora's Los Palmas whatever. That canyon is there
and mud nearly wiped out the restaurant that they called
Dukes in Malibu. Let's find out if they were able
to open it up here.
Speaker 13 (30:40):
Operation clean up underway Saturday morning at Duke's. Piles and
piles of mud pushed away from the front parking lot.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
It's the mud side.
Speaker 19 (30:51):
It took us out this time.
Speaker 13 (30:53):
The culprit, this money Debrif flow that came down Las
Flora's Canyon and over pH during this week's rainstorm. The
damage that Duke's goes far beyond the exterior.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
The whole in tier of the restaurant took a big
hit of muddy water.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
Oh how Dukes has had a double punch, first the
fires and then the floods.
Speaker 6 (31:12):
Pretty Much every surface on the lower level has mud
or water in it.
Speaker 8 (31:15):
The good news is the last couple of days we've
been able to get a lot of that water out
of there. We're working to do that again today and
I think after today it'll be a good start for them.
Speaker 13 (31:25):
Duke's, a staple in a Maligi community, has already endured
so much.
Speaker 7 (31:30):
This mud the latest blow.
Speaker 19 (31:32):
I'm in triple whammy if you think about it, because
you had Franklin fire in December, Palace Dates fire in January,
and then now this. We flooded back in twenty eleven,
which was pretty substantial, but this is much worse.
Speaker 13 (31:44):
Everyone determined to do whatever it takes to get this
place back up and running.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
We're just trying to do whatever we can to just
get them back up on their feet. You know, Duke's
being you know, such an important part of Ballibu.
Speaker 19 (31:57):
We want to be open. We want to be a
place to.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
Think that guy's got that Alibu accent.
Speaker 8 (32:01):
We're just trying to do whatever we can to just
get them back up on their feet. You know, Duke's being,
you know, such an important part of Balibu.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Yeah, Duke's model, Duke's you know.
Speaker 8 (32:12):
Duke's being, you know, such an important part of Balibu.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
It's totally important.
Speaker 19 (32:16):
We want to be open. We want to be a
place that they can see.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
I love Dukes. Duke's is the best.
Speaker 19 (32:20):
Continue to gather. We want to continue to serve our community.
It's gonna take some time, so we really appreciate all
the love we've gotten.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
Those reverse that reverse signal has got to drive those
people crazy all day long.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
It's the signal of a tractor in reverse.
Speaker 19 (32:38):
It's gonna take some time, so we really appreciate all
the love we've gotten on social media and everybody reaching out.
And we'll get open as soon as we can.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
All right, We're gonna let you know when Duke's open.
Speaker 13 (32:47):
And as you can see, the work continues here behind us.
It's been NonStop since this morning. The bottom line here
from Dukes is they are coming back stronger than ever.
You're asking for patience and hope to be back. Duke

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.

I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
