Delta and Cape Air pilots narrowly avoided disaster at Boston’s Logan Airport when one plane was cleared to land and another to take off on intersecting runways—coming within 0.73 miles of each other. The Delta jet was just 125 feet from the ground before aborting its landing. Meanwhile, Burbank Airport announced a major new terminal project.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's k IF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am sixty and you're listening to The Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app. All right, Alex Stone
is with us from ABC News. How you bubb ding Dong,
Happy Dong, Happy Halloween.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Hey.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
I do this every year, and I meant to.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I guess we're out on social media and I forgot.
But every year I promised the audience that if you
run over a child and severely injured or kill a
kid tonight, that I'll say your name on the air
every night for a year.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (00:31):
That wouldn't be a good thing. How about that?
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
How about that?
Speaker 5 (00:34):
So you're making that deal for tonight, or well.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
That deals for tonight if you run over a child
and you injure or kill a child, and wherever is
listening right now, and it's in the news, and I
and we find out, I'll say your name every night
for an entire year.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
I think typically people would want their name sat on
the air every day.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Maybe not for that reason, maybe not for that reason
at all. So anyway, but you know, you see it
all the time and Halloween, people driving fast and it
makes me makes me crazy. You know, some of these
kids all dressed up in black, you know, in their
Halloween costume, and they don't have a chance against some
of these cars, especially you know, the electric cars that
are very quiet. Can't you can't hear them coming. Hey,
(01:11):
So Delta Airlines is in the news.
Speaker 6 (01:12):
Eh, Yeah, So this was a close call that we
learned about today and you can hear it in the
voices of the pilots just how worried and surprise they were.
But and it's all kind of unfolded the day of
what went on yesterday. It was a Delta air Lines
airbus eight three point thirty. They were coming in from Paris.
They were heading to New York. They got diverted to
Boston because of bad weather in New York. Wow, And
(01:33):
they were cleared to land, and one hundred and twenty
five feet before the wheels touched down on the runway
in Boston, they were told to climb and go arounds
happen all the time. They are routine. They're not fun
when you're on board. If you've ever been in one
where you wonder what's going on, it does go on.
This one sounded like that it was not routine, but
this was their call to go around.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
Delta two sixty three heavy go around and turn to
degrees left.
Speaker 6 (01:55):
So they're told to climb and turn and make sure
you make that turn ten degrees left. And the reason
because there was a KPE Air commuter plane that was
told to stay low below them because he was taking off.
The Delta was climbing over it, and they were told stay.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Low here told go lo. They agreed.
Speaker 6 (02:14):
The audio from live atc dot nets where traffic control
had cleared the Delta plane to land and had cleared
KPE Air the commuter plane to take off on an
intersecting runway, and they were on a collision course where
they were gonna come together or be very close to it.
And the pilot of that KPE Air aircraft afterwards you
could hear he wasn't too pleased.
Speaker 7 (02:35):
Yeah man, not cool, yeah man, not cool.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
Totally sounds like like the commuter air pilot there totally relaxed,
serf dude. But the pilot of the the Delta eight
three thirty large aircraft wide body, they were not happy either.
They took their command to turn and to climb and
they had a comment.
Speaker 8 (02:54):
At the end of it, three thousand that was close.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
That was closet you want to hear your delta pilot's
say so. Then the pilot's asked for a phone number
to call the tower. And that's always a sign that
something whether the air traffic controller wants to give them
a number or the pilots want the number, that something
serious has gone on because they want to talk about
it on the phone and not on the open radio
where everybody can hear it.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
That usually is the end of a guy's flying career
when he says, hey, when I pull over to one
of these, you know, taxiways.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
We're going to give you a phone number. Yeah, what number?
Speaker 9 (03:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:26):
So they got within point seventy three miles of their
closest point, which doesn't sound all that close, except for
when you're going one hundred and fifty at landing and
take off one hundred and fifty one hundred eighty miles
an hour, you're gonna hit that pretty close. So the
delta plane they went around. We talked to our aviation
Analystive Gannier a little while ago, and he says, look,
this was a controller error, but there are a lot
(03:46):
of airports like this Burbank Intersex, San Francisco Intersex that
they thread the needle not as much at Burbank is
not as busy.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Wait Bourbank intersects with vanalyzed. Know that they're runways intersect
Oh that runways intersect one.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
Landing crossing into the one taking off, but they don't
have to do a lot of threading the needle. San Francisco,
they do one is rolling taking off while the other
one is landing, and they just go we can get
it right every time, and if they don't, then you know,
they can be a problem where you do a go around.
But Steve was telling us this.
Speaker 7 (04:15):
There are many big airports around the United States San Francisco, Boston, Kennedy,
LaGuardia where you have intersecting takeoffs and landings with runways at.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Ninety degree angles.
Speaker 7 (04:26):
It's very challenging for the air traffic controllers to be
able to have one aircraft taking off and another landing, but.
Speaker 6 (04:33):
They do it all the time. Limited real estate at
a lot of these older airports, and even though it
does appear to be air control, he says, look, you
also have to give the controller credit that he saved
the day in the end and told them what to
do for k Perry to stay low and Delta to
climb and turn the less.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
In this case, it looks like it was controller error,
but it was also a good save by the controller
when they realized the mistake had been made and made
the Delta jet go around, and so they really only
got about three quarters of a mile. Could have been
much worse, but the controller saved the mistake.
Speaker 6 (05:03):
Yeah, but Tim, the FAA and Delta, they say they're investigating.
In the end, the system work. The controllers saw the
problem and they said, this is not going to be
considered a near collision. It will be a loss of separation.
Will be the title that they're going to give it,
the loss of separation, And uh, well, you know I
ever really lived to tell about it.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I like, you know, George Carlin has it right. Everybody
else has it wrong. A near hit is a miss,
A near miss is a hit.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
That is true.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Hey, we nearly missed them bang.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Uh yeah, but you all call them near missus and
you're right, it would be a hit.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Do you you flying to Burbank Coffin?
Speaker 5 (05:34):
Oh, all the time. I'd love to. I hate going
down to lax just for the amount of time it takes.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
I'm with you, But I tell you what I do,
and I see a lot of people around me doing
the same thing. Because those runways are so short. I
tighten that F and C belt, man, I give it
an extra tuget. Right before landing.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
I was on a you know, I'd planning getting ready
back up the other day and they said, hang on
because we've got to shut down the runway to push
back because it's so tight. Yeah, to push back the
aircraft they closed down. Have you seen what the new terminal.
It looks beautiful. Yeah, it was almost done.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
I flew out last week.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
We were right by it, and I went, Wow, that
is going to be a totally different Burbank experience.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
And that'sptacular. And I can't believe how quickly they've put
this together. I mean, it's it been like, you know,
nine ten months of heavy construction and it's nearly finished.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Yeah, it looks like it's definitely getting there. They got
work they've got still have to do, put in jet ways,
all that kind of stuff, but it looks like it's
gonna be gorgeous.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
You know, you're a little younger than I am, but
you may remember this. Do you remember with the talk
to move lax out to Lancaster in the Annalog Valley.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
That would have been great. A high speed rail out there,
all of.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Those planes not landing and not going over Inglewood schools
all day long.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
That really would have been a great move.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
But it's been terrible for a lot of people having
to go out to Lancaster.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
But yeah, well, if they put a high speed train
between like Van Eyes and Lancaster, you could get there
in twenty five minutes or so, you know.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
And there is an airport out and not Edwards, but
it's connected to Edwards. The Palmdale Lancaster Airport in United
has tried several times to do Nervis. I flew out
of there one time where they'd go to Denver and
San Francisco, but they're just I don't think there's ever
been enough demand of there.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
But it would have been crazy had that been l
a X.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah, but you know, you spend if like I don't
know from from my you know, Santa Clarita. If you're
in traffic, Lancaster as much faster Lax.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I hate going to Lax.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
It's a nightmare.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And and you know, remember when like when you were
younger and you're like mom or dad and said, Hey,
I'm coming into Lax Friday at four, can you pick
me up?
Speaker 5 (07:29):
And like, what the f Yeah? Going to do that?
You got to bank. I'm not getting you.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Happy Halloween, enjoy the trigger, treating safe travels.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
With the kids, and we'll talk to you next week.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
You got it. Happy Halloween. We all right.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Eric alex Stone was ABC News ding dong with that
guy near missus or near hits with those planes. It's
nerve wracking. It's nerve wracking, man. I don't know what's
going on with airplanes. We have never had this many
news stories about airplanes day. There's another one.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
You're not on a plane, you're in a plane.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Right, Yeah, it's less windy. We've got a lot of
big parties going out there. The Carnival is that what
it's called out in West Hollywood. That's gonna be happening tonight.
That's the biggest, typically the biggest party probably in America
on Halloween.
Speaker 10 (08:20):
Yeah, that's probably true. West Hallowood think. Yeah, we did
a remote there one year on KFI.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
And it's not you know a lot of people think
it's like a gay pride party parade. It's not there are,
you know, there's everybody's out there, you know, And it
used to be used to be, you know, in the
seventies and eighties, you know, the guys get together and
throw that parade together, but now everybody goes.
Speaker 10 (08:43):
I remember one costume back when we did it, we
covered it. It was a bunch of a bunch of
guys in diapers and a bunch of like cotton all
over them, taped all over them and with spray bottles,
and they were being La Nina or El Ninoy.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
A lot of very.
Speaker 10 (08:59):
Creative Some of the most unbelievable costumes you'll ever see
it are in West Hollywood.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah, I think you're asolutely right, all right, So we'll
come back. What we have lots going on. We got
the Dodgers playing today. It's Halloween, so please slow the
f down in your car, and I give these kids
a chance. And you know, every year we try to
tell you that, and some people don't listen. But I
guarantee if you plow over a kid, it turns out
(09:25):
to be your fault. We're gonna mention you a lot
on this station. I know it sounds like I'm an
a hole, but that sometimes maybe you just need that
little tiny pushy not a positive no, no, no, it's
not gonna be positive. It's gonna be where you live,
where you work. Oh yeah, in a in a heavy
ass way, in a big ass way. And that goes
(09:46):
for everybody, not everybody, like you know, whoever you are,
you plowing to somebody, I'm gonna.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Be just so.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Yeah. Hey, Doug Krauzier, he's out.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
All Right's Halloween, Happy Halloween, everybody. My favorite holiday growing up.
I thought it was terrific.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Man.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I enjoyed helping decorate the house, getting dressed up, going out,
trigger treating to the point where, when I was fifteen
years old, I was going out. I was meeting my
buddies at Winchell's Donut Shop in Sino, right off of
Louise and Ventura, and I asked my dad to drive
me out there. We lived about maybe two miles from there,
(10:32):
and so I'm dressed up.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
As a woman.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I'm going as a as a young lady, as a
very unattractive young lady, says you. Although I think I
had it going on back there. I think I could
have pulled it off. Make up not today?
Speaker 1 (10:46):
No, no, did you have makeup on? Oh yeah? Everything? Everything?
I went for it.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Shut yourself up? Oh yeah, everything, you know. I caught
myself in the mirror, like, wo look at this guy.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
Come.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
My dad drives me to Winchel's Donuts.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
I look in.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I can see my nine idiot buddies in there. They
all have jeans on and flannel shirts. Nobody's dressed up
for Halloween. I'm fifteen, So I said, Dad, I can't
go in there. This could be a rough night. You
got to take me home. I got to change into
a flannel shirt and a and my jeans. He's like,
all right, oh, okay, okay. So he drives me home.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I changed.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Takes me two minutes. I go back to the donut shop.
I walk inside and I think it was the Matt
McDaniel and Mike Tennessee. They look at me and go,
here are you wearing Mascar? I said, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I am.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
It's a longer story than I got time. Let's just
get a chocolate bar or a maple bar and get
the hell out of here. You should have just said yes, yeah, yeah, right,
I always wear it, and from there, you know, that's
when I started wearing it on a daily basis.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
It's like my dad used to say.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
You know when people used to ask my dad, hey,
when'd you start wearing a bra? And my dad said, well,
every time since your mom found it in the glove compartment.
Old joke, old joke. All right, what is the weather
going to be like on Halloween? Well, I don't know,
let's find out.
Speaker 11 (12:18):
Got a beautiful evening settling in? Of course, they say evening,
because we've got Halloween tonight and everybody's getting ready, putting
on their costumes, getting candy bags ready as well, to
get on out and do some tricker treating. And we've
got some great tricker treating conditions. I showed you that
earlier in the show when we were out there with
Kimberly Chang live in West Hollywood for the carnival. We're
talking about seventies as we make our way into the six,
(12:41):
seven o'clock hours, and then a little bit cooler into
the eight, nine, ten o'clock hours tonight, So no doubt
about it.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Of course, Friday is a great day for kids because
they go to school, they're dressed up in their costume.
They have a beautiful, huge party day at school. They
come home, they get something to eat, maybe do a
little homework, maybe not because you got all week in
to do it. And then you go right back to
the streets with your costume on and your parents with
the flashlight, and they're drinking and you're getting candy. It's
(13:09):
one of the great nights in America for kids, and
it is. It is awesome. And so there's a ton
of kids out there, especially in the Teluca Lake area.
That's where a lot of kids go, Teluca Lake and
in Burbank as well. We had about two hundred and
eighty five kids stop by last year. And my wife
loves it. She's loaded up with candy. She's ready to go.
(13:30):
But please please be careful out there. Give these kids
a chance, Give these little kids a chance.
Speaker 11 (13:37):
Of course, you know, the drill if you're headed out,
brings something to where once we do get those cooler
temperatures coming your way. A little bit later on this evening,
I do want to take a quick look across the nation.
No severe weather, so good news there. We do have
some wet weather, some showers and a little bit of
some snowfall up into the basically the Toronto area coming
out of Toronto.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Wow, snowing in Toronto where the Dodgers are playing tonight, snowing.
Speaker 11 (14:01):
Coming out of Toronto in towards Nova Scotia. And speaking
of Toronto, of course, the Dodger's playing. Unfortunately, they've got
a roof on that stadium, so they don't have to
worry about the conditions. But fans waiting to get in
have been dealing with temperatures into the forties, and you
could see across the nation, we're looking.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
At where's the snow if the temperatures are.
Speaker 11 (14:18):
The forties into the forties, and you could see across
the nation we're looking at temperatures that are cooler the
further north you go. Look at Bismarck at thirty nine,
Chicago fifty two.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
It's been raining a lot in New York.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Overright, this summer is finally over. I guess you're knock
on wood here. Finally maybe over right, Maybe the ninety
degree days are gone at least for now, and we
can settle in. You know, because right after Halloween all
the decorations come down our house. I quickly go into
Christmas mode. I'll be set up for Christmas by Sunday,
maybe Monday. And I love that too. I love decorating
(14:51):
the house for Christmas. It's a great tradition. My dad
used to do it, and I used to help my
dad out. My brother's all got involved, Sister, it was
a great tradition setting that house up for Halloween and
then Christmas.
Speaker 10 (15:04):
As you and Angel both say, pack your patients.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Tonight, you've got to be patient out there when you're
driving around and you're gonna get home maybe five minutes
later than normally. But your key to having a great
night and a great future is slow driving, drive slowly.
We do a story almost every year about kids getting
(15:29):
hit or run over, and we hate doing those stories.
I hate those stories more than any other stories we
do here. So please, let's behave tonight, just one night,
one night. You can knock yourself out tomorrow, you go
crazy tomorrow, who cares? But let's give these kids a chance,
all right. The Dodgers are going to start in about
a half hour, forty minutes from now, forty three minutes
(15:50):
from now, and so we'll have scores for you all
night long. The Dodgers have to win tonight. And they
have to win tomorrow night. They have to go back
to back in Toronto in order to be the twenty
twenty five.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
World Series Champs. They got to win tonight.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Got to get our prayers together, our mojo together, our
positive thoughts and directing towards the Los Angeles Dodgers. We'll
give you scores all night. We'll also tell you where
the big parties are. We got great, clean, clear, beautiful weather,
so we're all set. When we come back. There's gonna
be a major change in Santa Monica that you may
or may not have heard of, but it's gonna be major,
(16:28):
probably the most major change in Santa Monica over the
last thirty or forty years.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
We'll come back. I'll tell you what it is.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty monks joins us.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
How you, Bob. I'm doing well with a great costume
you got on.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Thank you very much. I'm going like a degenerate game bank.
Degenerate is exactly what I was gonna say.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Are you on tonight at seven?
Speaker 4 (16:49):
No?
Speaker 8 (16:49):
Just Tiffany Hobbs solo, Okay, all right, they threw you off. Yeah,
he didn't like me. They cut here.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
I get that. I'll be back tomorrow night. In Tuesdays.
You just heard in the promo they're covering the election.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
That's right, Okay, So if the LAPD always is a
couple weeks ahead of everybody in preparation, and today is
no different.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
Yeah, yeah, that's right. Unless you call in your home
it's being burgled. And they're a little slower too on
the upcake. But yeah, but they have said listen, Dodgers fans,
if you get a little excited for some reason this weekend,
please behave responsibly.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
And you have a dog in this fight. You lived
out well. They tend to destroy downtown for some reason.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
And last year when the Dodgers won it all, it
got a little hairy in multiple locations. But there were
street takeovers in the middle of downtown Los Angeles. A
metro bus was absolutely charred to the frame and Echo
Park and there were problems in East LA as well.
Twelve people I think were arrested last year.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
The LAPED is.
Speaker 8 (17:44):
Saying folks, please behave They've put out a message that
says there will be zero tolerance Conway, zero tolerance Wow
for destruction of property the LAPD will strictly enforce laws
against vandalism and looting. They say they'll be highly visible
throughout downtown Los Angeles during celebrations, and that includes tonight.
(18:05):
You know, the Dodgers can't win tonight, but if something
goes awry and people get upset, then you know, don't
take it out on the city.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
But I wonder why it always happens downtown. Look, I
understand in Philadelphia downtown because that's where all the teams play, but.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
The but the Dodgers, you know, while they're close.
Speaker 8 (18:21):
To down Yeah, it's not that far. But I think
you can get away with it, I guess. And I
don't think there's a lot of respect for the central
business district. It's covered in poop, right, graffiti, tents Welcome
to La Yeah, and it's like, oh, let's go down there.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
It's our canvas.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
But monks, I have to and I hope. But you
don't think I'm beating up on you too often about this.
But you were aware of all the problems in downtown
before you move down.
Speaker 8 (18:47):
Yeah, I used to visit once or twice a year,
and I would always stay downtown and say I can't
wait to live here, Like I always tell you, Conway,
I will be the change I want to see in
the world.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Is that right? That's right? How's that going? It's not
going well?
Speaker 8 (18:59):
So you can see I'm a little aided towards the
police department because there's no reason for a city to
look like that. If the street lights all about it,
they back on now, and they're not going to be
back on. We're talking about a city council district that
held a press conference when the trees were slaughtered, but
said nothing when two people were packed down by machetes.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
You know what they could do like they've done in Burbank.
Burbank has low voltage, low watt light street lights, and
they're on. There's a very thin wire that is not
worth anything, and so they keep them up because it's
not worth climbing up there to take this little wire out.
Speaker 8 (19:35):
Well, if the people were running who are running Burbank
are interested in running Los Angeles, I'm interested in my
big pitch.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, you know, let's figure this out.
Speaker 9 (19:42):
YEA.
Speaker 8 (19:43):
For those of you who are out driving though, and
I know you might be out later, you never know
where the world might take you.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I know you like to find a Burger every now
and then after work.
Speaker 8 (19:51):
They say expect freeway closures if there's any type of celebration,
the one ten, the ten, the one oh one. You
should be prepared for alternate routes. If you you plan
to take metro, okay, do so at your own risk,
because it's well that it could be. It could get
Harry downtown.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
But you're talking about tomorrow night. If they win tonight
and then tomorrow night, I.
Speaker 8 (20:11):
Think the focus will primarily be on Tomorrow night if
the Dodgers win the World Series. But if the Dodgers
lose the World Series, either tonight or tomorrow have forbid
well some problem.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Two schools have thought. One is a lot of parents,
a lot of guys. They're usually the rough riders, you know,
the guys not there. The guys will be with their
family with the kids tonight and doing tricker trading. So
they made out have the energy to also riot. But
tomorrow night could be Harry if they If the Dodgers
win tonight, then they lose or win tomorrow night, it
(20:43):
all bets off.
Speaker 8 (20:44):
All Saints Day in the City of Angels, all hell
breaks list.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
What was that You're closer to Detroit than I am
what was the It was the Friday before? It was
devil all Devil's Oh you know what we talked about
this just last night?
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Okay?
Speaker 8 (20:58):
What you call the night before or Halloween? And it
depends on where you're from. I think the official title
you might even see on some calendars is all hallows Eve.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
My mom used to call it that. We called it
cabbage Night. Okay.
Speaker 8 (21:13):
Other people call it Devil's Night, right that Goosey Night
on one of the lists, Goosey Night.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
And especially in Detroit, they used to burn houses and
apartment buildings and businesses down on that.
Speaker 8 (21:23):
It didn't get that serious. And the hundreds in my
part of Kentucky, but we did. You know, there was
a little egg tossing, some toilet papering, and it was
all in good fun for the kids.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
What's the main crop in Kentucky? This still tobacco? Yeah
it is?
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Oh yeah, yeah, I mean coal is the official state vegetable. Okay,
that's an important Do you know anybody that went into
the coal business from high school?
Speaker 12 (21:46):
God?
Speaker 2 (21:47):
No, I'm from northern Kentucky. Oh, clean and suburban. How
those southern scumbags go into that house?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah? Well, I mean they're mountain people.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
They're completely different than like the Western you got the
Appalachian Hill village. Okay, you got the Western red and
you have the sophisticated Northern Kentuckians who fought for the Union.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Oh wow, what a disgrace, no wonder that you moved
out here. You turned on your people, my and your ancestors. Yeah,
you know how many generations has your family been here?
Speaker 1 (22:20):
A long time? And I only learned this recently.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
I never cared to look because we're all a bunch
of I say this in the true meaning that we're
a bunch of bastards, right, like a bunch of broken
families throughout the history of time. But just looking through
a quick, quick surface level genealogy, it goes all the
way back to Wingkentucky was part of Virginia. Wow, in
the eighteenth century, is that right? Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
That's crazy.
Speaker 8 (22:41):
I don't know where the money went because some of
these people had money, all right, well, and acreage gambled.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Yeah, I don't know what happened. But I'm second generation.
My dad was the first one born in this country,
and I'm second generation American.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Well you better not say that too loudly. We've been
here at a short period of time.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
You know that there's some family in Ohio, Like the
house that my grandparents lived in in Ohio was built
before Abraham Lincoln was president. And I mentioned there's a
lot of homes like that in Kentucky as well.
Speaker 8 (23:09):
Yeah, you know, the farther east you go because that's
where civil is, well, you know, European and colonization, civilization started. Yeah,
you're going to see older stuff. You don't have as
much as that out here because the people. That's why
the white people didn't arrive until much later. Yeah, you're whities,
whities like uh like you like you. Yeah, that's all right.
(23:29):
Michael the Whitey Monks is on. We'll keep an eye
on what's happening with the name of the show, Michael
the Whitey Monk, Cracker Monks, Cracker Monks.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
That's that's my sponsor tomorrow seven to nine pm. Yeah,
so if the you'll be on when the Dodgers or
Rodgers are on.
Speaker 8 (23:45):
Let me just tell you, I may experiment because I'm
learning to play the obo and I might just bring
it in and and just free you know, free flow
for a while.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
But you'll be on when the championship is won.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
That's right and tomorrow now obviously, if you're listening to
the game, that'll be on A five seventy Sports.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
But if you want to.
Speaker 8 (24:01):
Listen to the possible chaos to ensue afterwards, we'll have
a cover for you on the news here.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
If I would like to potentially if the Dodgers win
tomorrow night and you're on the air, I'd like to
potentially come in and celebrate with Come in, Okay, do
you know how to get here? I do, Yeah, yeah,
I'll be bombed, but I'll be hereeah, come on in, all.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Right, Dodgers, Go Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
They start in seven to twenty five minutes from now,
So go Dodgers. Monk's nice to see seven to nine
pm tomorrow. We'll see you lad You're on KFI and
then you're back on Tuesday. Election Night coverage seven to
ten with Chris Merril, Chris Marra. Okay, fantastic.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
The Dodgers start, will have scores for you all night long.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
It is Halloween. Happy Halloween to everybody out there. And
del mar is running the Breeders' Cup. They ran today
mostly the females I think run today and the males
run tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Is that what that scream was? I heard a couple
of minutes ago. That's through the studios. I'll tell you
what it but that was.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I got nosed doubt of a pick three man, And
let me tell you what it would have paid. I got,
I got beat on, but the favorite beat me, So
I'm not, you know that bummed. But I'll tell you
what I would have won if my horse would have
won on a on a fifty cent bet, fifty cents,
(25:25):
I'll tell you what it would have paid. Let me see,
I'm going to go into will pays and then pick three.
And I had the one, the three, and the four.
I had three horses in this six horse field, and
I would have if the one came in, it would
have been seven hundred and sixty two dollars, if the
three one thirteen seventy two after four to one, two
(25:46):
thousand dollars, well, nineteen eighty three. So on a fifty
cent bet, I could have won two grand and I
got nothing, nothing zero. So back to the draw.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
You get some dopamine hits there oh.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Yeah, no, no, I look, I that's why I do it,
you know.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
I mean, there's nothing that gets me excited. Money. It's
it's well worth the money, I mean, but it ain't
for the money. That's why you do it.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
It's I mean, I don't know, there's nothing else in
my life that gets me that crazy, that excited, you know,
Like I use this example all the time. I love
my wife's aunt Cheryl, and I found out, you know,
last year, she was coming down for Thanksgiving, and my.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Reaction was, oh, that's great love.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
You know, she can stay with us. You know, she's
a great lady. I really enjoy hanging out with her.
She's the first person outside of our immediate family that
my daughter warmed up to when she was a child.
I love that Aunt Cheryl. That was my reaction to
her coming down. Well, my reaction today to this twenty
to one shot.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Is come this guy, come come, let's come on, come
on out.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
And that's the reaction that only I only get from
horse race.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
It's so good and nothing else. But you heard me
yelling in there, did I got I gotta get it
into therapy? I really it took me a second.
Speaker 10 (27:10):
I thought, wait a minute, the game didn't start yet,
so it can't be the guy. It can't be calling
in the Dodgers studio.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
It was me getting nosed out in Del mar Ah. Man,
that would have been a payday, that would have been nice,
but it put me in the black for the week.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
For that day.
Speaker 10 (27:25):
Man, when you get something like that, when you're on
the when the show's going on, waiting.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
For that day, Oh yeah, the one one hit right
that one time? Did you just get up and walk out?
I haven't had a nice hit like that and quite
some time.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
All right, let's talk about the Santa Monica is going
to have a big change, a massive change in Santa Monica.
I know we promoted it and then did monks and
so if you feel like I screwed you over, well
I guess I did. But Santa Monica is a beautiful city,
great people out.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
In Santa Monica. But it's dying.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
If Third Street Promenade is not what it used to
be when I was in high school or you know,
first a couple of years of college, it is just dying.
They've let way too many homeless out there, way too
many crazies are out there, and so Santa Monica is
not a stupid city. They understand that they've got to
make some changes, and they're going to make some changes
(28:21):
to the Third Street promenade.
Speaker 13 (28:23):
Pantamonica is boosting downtown safety with a new police substation
on the ground floor of Santa Monica Place Mall. There
will be expanded foot and bike patrols, added officers, and
outreach for unhoused individuals.
Speaker 12 (28:36):
The substation will be opening later this fall.
Speaker 13 (28:40):
Panamonica's iconic Third Street promenade what's buzzing with energy now
struggling with empty storefronts and fading foot traffic, but a
new redevelopment plan could turn it into a world class destination.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Do you hear that?
Speaker 2 (28:54):
A new massive redevelopment plan for a Third Street promenade
there in Santa Monica for food.
Speaker 13 (29:00):
Music, and nightlife, just in time for the World Cup,
the Super Bowl and of course the Olympics.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Oh we wish, I wish Santa Monica. Well, I love
Third Street used to the way what was you know,
twenty thirty years ago? But let's find out what they're
going to do to it now.
Speaker 13 (29:14):
Joining us now is Alex Wall, the man behind that vision.
Speaker 12 (29:19):
Alex thank you so much for being.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Here, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 12 (29:22):
Tell me about your dream for this space.
Speaker 9 (29:24):
So the dream is to build a connected ecosystem of
world class hospitality, nightlife, and entertainment concepts.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
I like it so far that.
Speaker 9 (29:36):
Collaborate instead of compete. So this is meant to take
place on the north end of Third Street Promenade. We
want to create a place that's safe, clean, and is
alive from day to night and really somewhere that you know,
is somewhere that people are excited and proud.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Okay, we need more specifics.
Speaker 9 (29:55):
To take their friends and family when they visit from
out of town.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
All right, what does it look like?
Speaker 13 (30:00):
We know what the problems are in Santa Monica. They're
well documented. People have been concerned, they've been staying home
from that area. Right, how do you draw them back
and give them that sense of safety again?
Speaker 9 (30:11):
I think it's really about kind of you know. I'm
glad that you covered a bit earlier about what the
city you're working on for the promenade.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
I don't know if this is the guy. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
I think we need more energy out there. This guy,
he is unaware that that question was going to come up.
Then how are you going to protect the citizens from
the crazy people live in Santa Monica or at Santa Monica.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
This is not the guy. It sounds like a guy
who lives out there on the streets. This is not
This is not the guy.
Speaker 10 (30:48):
Because I heard this and I watched it and I
thought the exact same thing.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but it
sounds like a guy who lives on the streets out there.
Speaker 9 (30:59):
A few of the highlights that you mentioned with downtown,
the police substation that they're bringing in. They're putting three
and a half million dollars in to fix the sidewalks, lighting, signage,
and tree canopies, landscaping in the area.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
They're also streamlining the.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
What about the homeless? Any word on that.
Speaker 9 (31:18):
They're also streamlining the permitting process, so what about the homeless?
They're reducing the fees and kind of making it easier
for operators.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
To get involved about the crazies.
Speaker 9 (31:27):
I think the main thing is just going to be
if we create concepts and create an environment that feel
safe and new and exciting, that people are going to
come back.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
They're not unless you get rid of the crazy people.
Speaker 13 (31:41):
That are out there and you are soliciting feedback from
the community, so you're hoping that people will tell you
what they would like to see on the promenade.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
That's right, get rid of crazy people.
Speaker 9 (31:50):
Yeah, I think this is really the most important part
of the process because we need to make sure that
what we build on the promenade reflects the wants and
needs of the people that live and work in the area.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
That's right, about thirty years too late, but he's on track.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
So I've been asking people the kind of venues that
they'd like to see, the kind of designs.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Wait, wait, I thought you were the guy putting all together.
Now we're in a the very beginning, infant stages of this.
Speaker 9 (32:18):
So I've been asking people the kind of venues that
they'd like to see, the kind of design styles that
they gravitate most towards.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Yeah, it sounds like we're a long way away.
Speaker 9 (32:27):
And also what are the current issues in hospitality so
that we can address those issues when we build this
whole thing out. So it's really about engineering success from
the ground up and bringing the community together. So far,
the response has been amazing. It's been really.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Helpful response to what what's the plan?
Speaker 4 (32:46):
The response has been amazing.
Speaker 9 (32:48):
It's been really helpful, and I'd encourage anyone else who
knows what great nights out look like to be a
part of the conversation and follow along on at the
Instagram or social media's and part of the conversation.
Speaker 13 (33:00):
Yeah, and you've had that conversation on social media, which
is really interesting. The pesky part, of course, is getting
the funding. So how are you doing in that department
of trying to get investors?
Speaker 4 (33:10):
Were good?
Speaker 9 (33:11):
I think there's one concept that is about eighty percent funded,
which will be Mood, which is a rooftop concept that
we're working on. And then it's just opportunities like this
to kind of showcase what we're working on and also
invite in other operators, quality operators with quality concepts who
can come and be a part of what we're trying
to build on the promenade.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
God, this sounds like the very beginning stages of a
ten year plan.
Speaker 13 (33:35):
Well, it's really beautiful, and you have a special event
coming up that you want to tell us about.
Speaker 9 (33:40):
Yes, definitely, so this Saturday. Well, the movement itself, it's
not just about.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Opening new venues.
Speaker 9 (33:46):
We want to support the venues that are already there.
So we've partnered with the Brothers at Casa Martin. Cassa
Martin is an authentic Mexican restaurant, and we're doing a
Day of the Dead event there that starts at six
p on this Saturday.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Day of the Dead. You can do that anywhere in
the Santa Monica. You have to go to a Mexican
restaurant for that. Yeah, they the Dead is the walking
Dead is out there, and.
Speaker 9 (34:12):
We're collaborating with brands like Vove Clicko, Folcan Tequila, and
we're bringing in a Void sound system.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
So we're really trying to show that.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Should do it.
Speaker 10 (34:20):
I guess I love areas, you know, the idea of that,
but kind of everything he was saying it was like, oh,
high class, world class Voove Clicko, and I'm just like, man,
I ain't got that kind of pocketbook to go there.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
If they do this, and he's going and the rooftop
bar called mood, I don't know what that is.
Speaker 10 (34:39):
Yeah, I mean, first of all, getting to Santa Monica
and getting to that promenade is the biggest pain in.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
The Yeah, it's like going to lax Yeah, and they're
getting off at Lincoln there. I mean it's you know,
sometimes you wait through five lights. Okay, well, I'm sure
we gotta take back, all right. We're live on kry
Conway Show, on demand on the iHeartRadio app. You can
always hear us live on k f I Am six
forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime
(35:07):
on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's k IF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am sixty and you're listening to The Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app. All right, Alex Stone
is with us from ABC News. How you bubb ding Dong,
Happy Dong, Happy Halloween.
Speaker 3 (00:14):
Hey.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
I do this every year, and I meant to.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
I guess we're out on social media and I forgot.
But every year I promised the audience that if you
run over a child and severely injured or kill a
kid tonight, that I'll say your name on the air
every night for a year.
Speaker 4 (00:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (00:31):
That wouldn't be a good thing. How about that?
Speaker 4 (00:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:34):
How about that?
Speaker 5 (00:34):
So you're making that deal for tonight, or well.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
That deals for tonight if you run over a child
and you injure or kill a child, and wherever is
listening right now, and it's in the news, and I
and we find out, I'll say your name every night
for an entire year.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
I think typically people would want their name sat on
the air every day.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
Maybe not for that reason, maybe not for that reason
at all. So anyway, but you know, you see it
all the time and Halloween, people driving fast and it
makes me makes me crazy. You know, some of these
kids all dressed up in black, you know, in their
Halloween costume, and they don't have a chance against some
of these cars, especially you know, the electric cars that
are very quiet. Can't you can't hear them coming. Hey,
(01:11):
So Delta Airlines is in the news.
Speaker 6 (01:12):
Eh, Yeah, So this was a close call that we
learned about today and you can hear it in the
voices of the pilots just how worried and surprise they were.
But and it's all kind of unfolded the day of
what went on yesterday. It was a Delta air Lines
airbus eight three point thirty. They were coming in from Paris.
They were heading to New York. They got diverted to
Boston because of bad weather in New York. Wow, And
(01:33):
they were cleared to land, and one hundred and twenty
five feet before the wheels touched down on the runway
in Boston, they were told to climb and go arounds
happen all the time. They are routine. They're not fun
when you're on board. If you've ever been in one
where you wonder what's going on, it does go on.
This one sounded like that it was not routine, but
this was their call to go around.
Speaker 5 (01:51):
Delta two sixty three heavy go around and turn to
degrees left.
Speaker 6 (01:55):
So they're told to climb and turn and make sure
you make that turn ten degrees left. And the reason
because there was a KPE Air commuter plane that was
told to stay low below them because he was taking off.
The Delta was climbing over it, and they were told stay.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
Low here told go lo. They agreed.
Speaker 6 (02:14):
The audio from live atc dot nets where traffic control
had cleared the Delta plane to land and had cleared
KPE Air the commuter plane to take off on an
intersecting runway, and they were on a collision course where
they were gonna come together or be very close to it.
And the pilot of that KPE Air aircraft afterwards you
could hear he wasn't too pleased.
Speaker 7 (02:35):
Yeah man, not cool, yeah man, not cool.
Speaker 6 (02:39):
Totally sounds like like the commuter air pilot there totally relaxed,
serf dude. But the pilot of the the Delta eight
three thirty large aircraft wide body, they were not happy either.
They took their command to turn and to climb and
they had a comment.
Speaker 8 (02:54):
At the end of it, three thousand that was close.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
That was closet you want to hear your delta pilot's
say so. Then the pilot's asked for a phone number
to call the tower. And that's always a sign that
something whether the air traffic controller wants to give them
a number or the pilots want the number, that something
serious has gone on because they want to talk about
it on the phone and not on the open radio
where everybody can hear it.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
That usually is the end of a guy's flying career
when he says, hey, when I pull over to one
of these, you know, taxiways.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
We're going to give you a phone number. Yeah, what number?
Speaker 9 (03:24):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (03:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:26):
So they got within point seventy three miles of their
closest point, which doesn't sound all that close, except for
when you're going one hundred and fifty at landing and
take off one hundred and fifty one hundred eighty miles
an hour, you're gonna hit that pretty close. So the
delta plane they went around. We talked to our aviation
Analystive Gannier a little while ago, and he says, look,
this was a controller error, but there are a lot
(03:46):
of airports like this Burbank Intersex, San Francisco Intersex that
they thread the needle not as much at Burbank is
not as busy.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Wait Bourbank intersects with vanalyzed. Know that they're runways intersect
Oh that runways intersect one.
Speaker 6 (04:00):
Landing crossing into the one taking off, but they don't
have to do a lot of threading the needle. San Francisco,
they do one is rolling taking off while the other
one is landing, and they just go we can get
it right every time, and if they don't, then you know,
they can be a problem where you do a go around.
But Steve was telling us this.
Speaker 7 (04:15):
There are many big airports around the United States San Francisco, Boston, Kennedy,
LaGuardia where you have intersecting takeoffs and landings with runways at.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Ninety degree angles.
Speaker 7 (04:26):
It's very challenging for the air traffic controllers to be
able to have one aircraft taking off and another landing, but.
Speaker 6 (04:33):
They do it all the time. Limited real estate at
a lot of these older airports, and even though it
does appear to be air control, he says, look, you
also have to give the controller credit that he saved
the day in the end and told them what to
do for k Perry to stay low and Delta to
climb and turn the less.
Speaker 7 (04:48):
In this case, it looks like it was controller error,
but it was also a good save by the controller
when they realized the mistake had been made and made
the Delta jet go around, and so they really only
got about three quarters of a mile. Could have been
much worse, but the controller saved the mistake.
Speaker 6 (05:03):
Yeah, but Tim, the FAA and Delta, they say they're investigating.
In the end, the system work. The controllers saw the
problem and they said, this is not going to be
considered a near collision. It will be a loss of separation.
Will be the title that they're going to give it,
the loss of separation, And uh, well, you know I
ever really lived to tell about it.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I like, you know, George Carlin has it right. Everybody
else has it wrong. A near hit is a miss,
A near miss is a hit.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
That is true.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Hey, we nearly missed them bang.
Speaker 5 (05:29):
Uh yeah, but you all call them near missus and
you're right, it would be a hit.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Do you you flying to Burbank Coffin?
Speaker 5 (05:34):
Oh, all the time. I'd love to. I hate going
down to lax just for the amount of time it takes.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
I'm with you, But I tell you what I do,
and I see a lot of people around me doing
the same thing. Because those runways are so short. I
tighten that F and C belt, man, I give it
an extra tuget. Right before landing.
Speaker 6 (05:48):
I was on a you know, I'd planning getting ready
back up the other day and they said, hang on
because we've got to shut down the runway to push
back because it's so tight. Yeah, to push back the
aircraft they closed down. Have you seen what the new terminal.
It looks beautiful. Yeah, it was almost done.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
I flew out last week.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
We were right by it, and I went, Wow, that
is going to be a totally different Burbank experience.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
And that'sptacular. And I can't believe how quickly they've put
this together. I mean, it's it been like, you know,
nine ten months of heavy construction and it's nearly finished.
Speaker 6 (06:18):
Yeah, it looks like it's definitely getting there. They got
work they've got still have to do, put in jet ways,
all that kind of stuff, but it looks like it's
gonna be gorgeous.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
You know, you're a little younger than I am, but
you may remember this. Do you remember with the talk
to move lax out to Lancaster in the Annalog Valley.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
That would have been great. A high speed rail out there,
all of.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Those planes not landing and not going over Inglewood schools
all day long.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
That really would have been a great move.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
But it's been terrible for a lot of people having
to go out to Lancaster.
Speaker 2 (06:44):
But yeah, well, if they put a high speed train
between like Van Eyes and Lancaster, you could get there
in twenty five minutes or so, you know.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
And there is an airport out and not Edwards, but
it's connected to Edwards. The Palmdale Lancaster Airport in United
has tried several times to do Nervis. I flew out
of there one time where they'd go to Denver and
San Francisco, but they're just I don't think there's ever
been enough demand of there.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
But it would have been crazy had that been l
a X.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah, but you know, you spend if like I don't
know from from my you know, Santa Clarita. If you're
in traffic, Lancaster as much faster Lax.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I hate going to Lax.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
It's a nightmare.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
And and you know, remember when like when you were
younger and you're like mom or dad and said, Hey,
I'm coming into Lax Friday at four, can you pick
me up?
Speaker 5 (07:29):
And like, what the f Yeah? Going to do that?
You got to bank. I'm not getting you.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Happy Halloween, enjoy the trigger, treating safe travels.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
With the kids, and we'll talk to you next week.
Speaker 5 (07:41):
You got it. Happy Halloween. We all right.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Eric alex Stone was ABC News ding dong with that
guy near missus or near hits with those planes. It's
nerve wracking. It's nerve wracking, man. I don't know what's
going on with airplanes. We have never had this many
news stories about airplanes day. There's another one.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
You're not on a plane, you're in a plane.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Right, Yeah, it's less windy. We've got a lot of
big parties going out there. The Carnival is that what
it's called out in West Hollywood. That's gonna be happening tonight.
That's the biggest, typically the biggest party probably in America
on Halloween.
Speaker 10 (08:20):
Yeah, that's probably true. West Hallowood think. Yeah, we did
a remote there one year on KFI.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
And it's not you know a lot of people think
it's like a gay pride party parade. It's not there are,
you know, there's everybody's out there, you know, And it
used to be used to be, you know, in the
seventies and eighties, you know, the guys get together and
throw that parade together, but now everybody goes.
Speaker 10 (08:43):
I remember one costume back when we did it, we
covered it. It was a bunch of a bunch of
guys in diapers and a bunch of like cotton all
over them, taped all over them and with spray bottles,
and they were being La Nina or El Ninoy.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
A lot of very.
Speaker 10 (08:59):
Creative Some of the most unbelievable costumes you'll ever see
it are in West Hollywood.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah, I think you're asolutely right, all right, So we'll
come back. What we have lots going on. We got
the Dodgers playing today. It's Halloween, so please slow the
f down in your car, and I give these kids
a chance. And you know, every year we try to
tell you that, and some people don't listen. But I
guarantee if you plow over a kid, it turns out
(09:25):
to be your fault. We're gonna mention you a lot
on this station. I know it sounds like I'm an
a hole, but that sometimes maybe you just need that
little tiny pushy not a positive no, no, no, it's
not gonna be positive. It's gonna be where you live,
where you work. Oh yeah, in a in a heavy
ass way, in a big ass way. And that goes
(09:46):
for everybody, not everybody, like you know, whoever you are,
you plowing to somebody, I'm gonna.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Be just so.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Yeah. Hey, Doug Krauzier, he's out.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yeah, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
All Right's Halloween, Happy Halloween, everybody. My favorite holiday growing up.
I thought it was terrific.
Speaker 4 (10:08):
Man.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I enjoyed helping decorate the house, getting dressed up, going out,
trigger treating to the point where, when I was fifteen
years old, I was going out. I was meeting my
buddies at Winchell's Donut Shop in Sino, right off of
Louise and Ventura, and I asked my dad to drive
me out there. We lived about maybe two miles from there,
(10:32):
and so I'm dressed up.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
As a woman.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I'm going as a as a young lady, as a
very unattractive young lady, says you. Although I think I
had it going on back there. I think I could
have pulled it off. Make up not today?
Speaker 1 (10:46):
No, no, did you have makeup on? Oh yeah? Everything? Everything?
I went for it.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Shut yourself up? Oh yeah, everything, you know. I caught
myself in the mirror, like, wo look at this guy.
Speaker 5 (10:59):
Come.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
My dad drives me to Winchel's Donuts.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
I look in.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I can see my nine idiot buddies in there. They
all have jeans on and flannel shirts. Nobody's dressed up
for Halloween. I'm fifteen, So I said, Dad, I can't
go in there. This could be a rough night. You
got to take me home. I got to change into
a flannel shirt and a and my jeans. He's like,
all right, oh, okay, okay. So he drives me home.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I changed.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Takes me two minutes. I go back to the donut shop.
I walk inside and I think it was the Matt
McDaniel and Mike Tennessee. They look at me and go,
here are you wearing Mascar? I said, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I am.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
It's a longer story than I got time. Let's just
get a chocolate bar or a maple bar and get
the hell out of here. You should have just said yes, yeah, yeah, right,
I always wear it, and from there, you know, that's
when I started wearing it on a daily basis.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
It's like my dad used to say.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
You know when people used to ask my dad, hey,
when'd you start wearing a bra? And my dad said, well,
every time since your mom found it in the glove compartment.
Old joke, old joke. All right, what is the weather
going to be like on Halloween? Well, I don't know,
let's find out.
Speaker 11 (12:18):
Got a beautiful evening settling in? Of course, they say evening,
because we've got Halloween tonight and everybody's getting ready, putting
on their costumes, getting candy bags ready as well, to
get on out and do some tricker treating. And we've
got some great tricker treating conditions. I showed you that
earlier in the show when we were out there with
Kimberly Chang live in West Hollywood for the carnival. We're
talking about seventies as we make our way into the six,
(12:41):
seven o'clock hours, and then a little bit cooler into
the eight, nine, ten o'clock hours tonight, So no doubt
about it.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
Of course, Friday is a great day for kids because
they go to school, they're dressed up in their costume.
They have a beautiful, huge party day at school. They
come home, they get something to eat, maybe do a
little homework, maybe not because you got all week in
to do it. And then you go right back to
the streets with your costume on and your parents with
the flashlight, and they're drinking and you're getting candy. It's
(13:09):
one of the great nights in America for kids, and
it is. It is awesome. And so there's a ton
of kids out there, especially in the Teluca Lake area.
That's where a lot of kids go, Teluca Lake and
in Burbank as well. We had about two hundred and
eighty five kids stop by last year. And my wife
loves it. She's loaded up with candy. She's ready to go.
(13:30):
But please please be careful out there. Give these kids
a chance, Give these little kids a chance.
Speaker 11 (13:37):
Of course, you know, the drill if you're headed out,
brings something to where once we do get those cooler
temperatures coming your way. A little bit later on this evening,
I do want to take a quick look across the nation.
No severe weather, so good news there. We do have
some wet weather, some showers and a little bit of
some snowfall up into the basically the Toronto area coming
out of Toronto.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Wow, snowing in Toronto where the Dodgers are playing tonight, snowing.
Speaker 11 (14:01):
Coming out of Toronto in towards Nova Scotia. And speaking
of Toronto, of course, the Dodger's playing. Unfortunately, they've got
a roof on that stadium, so they don't have to
worry about the conditions. But fans waiting to get in
have been dealing with temperatures into the forties, and you
could see across the nation, we're looking.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
At where's the snow if the temperatures are.
Speaker 11 (14:18):
The forties into the forties, and you could see across
the nation we're looking at temperatures that are cooler the
further north you go. Look at Bismarck at thirty nine,
Chicago fifty two.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
It's been raining a lot in New York.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Overright, this summer is finally over. I guess you're knock
on wood here. Finally maybe over right, Maybe the ninety
degree days are gone at least for now, and we
can settle in. You know, because right after Halloween all
the decorations come down our house. I quickly go into
Christmas mode. I'll be set up for Christmas by Sunday,
maybe Monday. And I love that too. I love decorating
(14:51):
the house for Christmas. It's a great tradition. My dad
used to do it, and I used to help my
dad out. My brother's all got involved, Sister, it was
a great tradition setting that house up for Halloween and
then Christmas.
Speaker 10 (15:04):
As you and Angel both say, pack your patients.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Tonight, you've got to be patient out there when you're
driving around and you're gonna get home maybe five minutes
later than normally. But your key to having a great
night and a great future is slow driving, drive slowly.
We do a story almost every year about kids getting
(15:29):
hit or run over, and we hate doing those stories.
I hate those stories more than any other stories we
do here. So please, let's behave tonight, just one night,
one night. You can knock yourself out tomorrow, you go
crazy tomorrow, who cares? But let's give these kids a chance,
all right. The Dodgers are going to start in about
a half hour, forty minutes from now, forty three minutes
(15:50):
from now, and so we'll have scores for you all
night long. The Dodgers have to win tonight. And they
have to win tomorrow night. They have to go back
to back in Toronto in order to be the twenty
twenty five.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
World Series Champs. They got to win tonight.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Got to get our prayers together, our mojo together, our
positive thoughts and directing towards the Los Angeles Dodgers. We'll
give you scores all night. We'll also tell you where
the big parties are. We got great, clean, clear, beautiful weather,
so we're all set. When we come back. There's gonna
be a major change in Santa Monica that you may
or may not have heard of, but it's gonna be major,
(16:28):
probably the most major change in Santa Monica over the
last thirty or forty years.
Speaker 1 (16:32):
We'll come back. I'll tell you what it is.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty monks joins us.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
How you, Bob. I'm doing well with a great costume
you got on.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Thank you very much. I'm going like a degenerate game bank.
Degenerate is exactly what I was gonna say.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Are you on tonight at seven?
Speaker 4 (16:49):
No?
Speaker 8 (16:49):
Just Tiffany Hobbs solo, Okay, all right, they threw you off. Yeah,
he didn't like me. They cut here.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
I get that. I'll be back tomorrow night. In Tuesdays.
You just heard in the promo they're covering the election.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
That's right, Okay, So if the LAPD always is a
couple weeks ahead of everybody in preparation, and today is
no different.
Speaker 8 (17:06):
Yeah, yeah, that's right. Unless you call in your home
it's being burgled. And they're a little slower too on
the upcake. But yeah, but they have said listen, Dodgers fans,
if you get a little excited for some reason this weekend,
please behave responsibly.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
And you have a dog in this fight. You lived
out well. They tend to destroy downtown for some reason.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
And last year when the Dodgers won it all, it
got a little hairy in multiple locations. But there were
street takeovers in the middle of downtown Los Angeles. A
metro bus was absolutely charred to the frame and Echo
Park and there were problems in East LA as well.
Twelve people I think were arrested last year.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
The LAPED is.
Speaker 8 (17:44):
Saying folks, please behave They've put out a message that
says there will be zero tolerance Conway, zero tolerance Wow
for destruction of property the LAPD will strictly enforce laws
against vandalism and looting. They say they'll be highly visible
throughout downtown Los Angeles during celebrations, and that includes tonight.
(18:05):
You know, the Dodgers can't win tonight, but if something
goes awry and people get upset, then you know, don't
take it out on the city.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
But I wonder why it always happens downtown. Look, I
understand in Philadelphia downtown because that's where all the teams play, but.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
The but the Dodgers, you know, while they're close.
Speaker 8 (18:21):
To down Yeah, it's not that far. But I think
you can get away with it, I guess. And I
don't think there's a lot of respect for the central
business district. It's covered in poop, right, graffiti, tents Welcome
to La Yeah, and it's like, oh, let's go down there.
Speaker 1 (18:37):
It's our canvas.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
But monks, I have to and I hope. But you
don't think I'm beating up on you too often about this.
But you were aware of all the problems in downtown
before you move down.
Speaker 8 (18:47):
Yeah, I used to visit once or twice a year,
and I would always stay downtown and say I can't
wait to live here, Like I always tell you, Conway,
I will be the change I want to see in
the world.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
Is that right? That's right? How's that going? It's not
going well?
Speaker 8 (18:59):
So you can see I'm a little aided towards the
police department because there's no reason for a city to
look like that. If the street lights all about it,
they back on now, and they're not going to be
back on. We're talking about a city council district that
held a press conference when the trees were slaughtered, but
said nothing when two people were packed down by machetes.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
You know what they could do like they've done in Burbank.
Burbank has low voltage, low watt light street lights, and
they're on. There's a very thin wire that is not
worth anything, and so they keep them up because it's
not worth climbing up there to take this little wire out.
Speaker 8 (19:35):
Well, if the people were running who are running Burbank
are interested in running Los Angeles, I'm interested in my
big pitch.
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, you know, let's figure this out.
Speaker 9 (19:42):
YEA.
Speaker 8 (19:43):
For those of you who are out driving though, and
I know you might be out later, you never know
where the world might take you.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I know you like to find a Burger every now
and then after work.
Speaker 8 (19:51):
They say expect freeway closures if there's any type of celebration,
the one ten, the ten, the one oh one. You
should be prepared for alternate routes. If you you plan
to take metro, okay, do so at your own risk,
because it's well that it could be. It could get
Harry downtown.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
But you're talking about tomorrow night. If they win tonight
and then tomorrow night, I.
Speaker 8 (20:11):
Think the focus will primarily be on Tomorrow night if
the Dodgers win the World Series. But if the Dodgers
lose the World Series, either tonight or tomorrow have forbid
well some problem.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Two schools have thought. One is a lot of parents,
a lot of guys. They're usually the rough riders, you know,
the guys not there. The guys will be with their
family with the kids tonight and doing tricker trading. So
they made out have the energy to also riot. But
tomorrow night could be Harry if they If the Dodgers
win tonight, then they lose or win tomorrow night, it
(20:43):
all bets off.
Speaker 8 (20:44):
All Saints Day in the City of Angels, all hell
breaks list.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
What was that You're closer to Detroit than I am
what was the It was the Friday before? It was
devil all Devil's Oh you know what we talked about
this just last night?
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Okay?
Speaker 8 (20:58):
What you call the night before or Halloween? And it
depends on where you're from. I think the official title
you might even see on some calendars is all hallows Eve.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
My mom used to call it that. We called it
cabbage Night. Okay.
Speaker 8 (21:13):
Other people call it Devil's Night, right that Goosey Night
on one of the lists, Goosey Night.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
And especially in Detroit, they used to burn houses and
apartment buildings and businesses down on that.
Speaker 8 (21:23):
It didn't get that serious. And the hundreds in my
part of Kentucky, but we did. You know, there was
a little egg tossing, some toilet papering, and it was
all in good fun for the kids.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
What's the main crop in Kentucky? This still tobacco? Yeah
it is?
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Oh yeah, yeah, I mean coal is the official state vegetable. Okay,
that's an important Do you know anybody that went into
the coal business from high school?
Speaker 12 (21:46):
God?
Speaker 2 (21:47):
No, I'm from northern Kentucky. Oh, clean and suburban. How
those southern scumbags go into that house?
Speaker 1 (21:51):
Yeah? Well, I mean they're mountain people.
Speaker 8 (21:53):
They're completely different than like the Western you got the
Appalachian Hill village. Okay, you got the Western red and
you have the sophisticated Northern Kentuckians who fought for the Union.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Oh wow, what a disgrace, no wonder that you moved
out here. You turned on your people, my and your ancestors. Yeah,
you know how many generations has your family been here?
Speaker 1 (22:20):
A long time? And I only learned this recently.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
I never cared to look because we're all a bunch
of I say this in the true meaning that we're
a bunch of bastards, right, like a bunch of broken
families throughout the history of time. But just looking through
a quick, quick surface level genealogy, it goes all the
way back to Wingkentucky was part of Virginia. Wow, in
the eighteenth century, is that right? Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
That's crazy.
Speaker 8 (22:41):
I don't know where the money went because some of
these people had money, all right, well, and acreage gambled.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Yeah, I don't know what happened. But I'm second generation.
My dad was the first one born in this country,
and I'm second generation American.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Well you better not say that too loudly. We've been
here at a short period of time.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
You know that there's some family in Ohio, Like the
house that my grandparents lived in in Ohio was built
before Abraham Lincoln was president. And I mentioned there's a
lot of homes like that in Kentucky as well.
Speaker 8 (23:09):
Yeah, you know, the farther east you go because that's
where civil is, well, you know, European and colonization, civilization started. Yeah,
you're going to see older stuff. You don't have as
much as that out here because the people. That's why
the white people didn't arrive until much later. Yeah, you're whities,
whities like uh like you like you. Yeah, that's all right.
(23:29):
Michael the Whitey Monks is on. We'll keep an eye
on what's happening with the name of the show, Michael
the Whitey Monk, Cracker Monks, Cracker Monks.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
That's that's my sponsor tomorrow seven to nine pm. Yeah,
so if the you'll be on when the Dodgers or
Rodgers are on.
Speaker 8 (23:45):
Let me just tell you, I may experiment because I'm
learning to play the obo and I might just bring
it in and and just free you know, free flow
for a while.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
But you'll be on when the championship is won.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
That's right and tomorrow now obviously, if you're listening to
the game, that'll be on A five seventy Sports.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
But if you want to.
Speaker 8 (24:01):
Listen to the possible chaos to ensue afterwards, we'll have
a cover for you on the news here.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
If I would like to potentially if the Dodgers win
tomorrow night and you're on the air, I'd like to
potentially come in and celebrate with Come in, Okay, do
you know how to get here? I do, Yeah, yeah,
I'll be bombed, but I'll be hereeah, come on in, all.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
Right, Dodgers, Go Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
They start in seven to twenty five minutes from now,
So go Dodgers. Monk's nice to see seven to nine
pm tomorrow. We'll see you lad You're on KFI and
then you're back on Tuesday. Election Night coverage seven to
ten with Chris Merril, Chris Marra. Okay, fantastic.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
The Dodgers start, will have scores for you all night long.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
It is Halloween. Happy Halloween to everybody out there. And
del mar is running the Breeders' Cup. They ran today
mostly the females I think run today and the males
run tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Is that what that scream was? I heard a couple
of minutes ago. That's through the studios. I'll tell you
what it but that was.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
I got nosed doubt of a pick three man, And
let me tell you what it would have paid. I got,
I got beat on, but the favorite beat me, So
I'm not, you know that bummed. But I'll tell you
what I would have won if my horse would have
won on a on a fifty cent bet, fifty cents,
(25:25):
I'll tell you what it would have paid. Let me see,
I'm going to go into will pays and then pick three.
And I had the one, the three, and the four.
I had three horses in this six horse field, and
I would have if the one came in, it would
have been seven hundred and sixty two dollars, if the
three one thirteen seventy two after four to one, two
(25:46):
thousand dollars, well, nineteen eighty three. So on a fifty
cent bet, I could have won two grand and I
got nothing, nothing zero. So back to the draw.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
You get some dopamine hits there oh.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Yeah, no, no, I look, I that's why I do it,
you know.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
I mean, there's nothing that gets me excited. Money. It's
it's well worth the money, I mean, but it ain't
for the money. That's why you do it.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
It's I mean, I don't know, there's nothing else in
my life that gets me that crazy, that excited, you know,
Like I use this example all the time. I love
my wife's aunt Cheryl, and I found out, you know,
last year, she was coming down for Thanksgiving, and my.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Reaction was, oh, that's great love.
Speaker 5 (26:32):
I like that.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
You know, she can stay with us. You know, she's
a great lady. I really enjoy hanging out with her.
She's the first person outside of our immediate family that
my daughter warmed up to when she was a child.
I love that Aunt Cheryl. That was my reaction to
her coming down. Well, my reaction today to this twenty
to one shot.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Is come this guy, come come, let's come on, come
on out.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
And that's the reaction that only I only get from
horse race.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
It's so good and nothing else. But you heard me
yelling in there, did I got I gotta get it
into therapy? I really it took me a second.
Speaker 10 (27:10):
I thought, wait a minute, the game didn't start yet,
so it can't be the guy. It can't be calling
in the Dodgers studio.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
It was me getting nosed out in Del mar Ah. Man,
that would have been a payday, that would have been nice,
but it put me in the black for the week.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
For that day.
Speaker 10 (27:25):
Man, when you get something like that, when you're on
the when the show's going on, waiting.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
For that day, Oh yeah, the one one hit right
that one time? Did you just get up and walk out?
I haven't had a nice hit like that and quite
some time.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
All right, let's talk about the Santa Monica is going
to have a big change, a massive change in Santa Monica.
I know we promoted it and then did monks and
so if you feel like I screwed you over, well
I guess I did. But Santa Monica is a beautiful city,
great people out.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
In Santa Monica. But it's dying.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
If Third Street Promenade is not what it used to
be when I was in high school or you know,
first a couple of years of college, it is just dying.
They've let way too many homeless out there, way too
many crazies are out there, and so Santa Monica is
not a stupid city. They understand that they've got to
make some changes, and they're going to make some changes
(28:21):
to the Third Street promenade.
Speaker 13 (28:23):
Pantamonica is boosting downtown safety with a new police substation
on the ground floor of Santa Monica Place Mall. There
will be expanded foot and bike patrols, added officers, and
outreach for unhoused individuals.
Speaker 12 (28:36):
The substation will be opening later this fall.
Speaker 13 (28:40):
Panamonica's iconic Third Street promenade what's buzzing with energy now
struggling with empty storefronts and fading foot traffic, but a
new redevelopment plan could turn it into a world class destination.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Do you hear that?
Speaker 2 (28:54):
A new massive redevelopment plan for a Third Street promenade
there in Santa Monica for food.
Speaker 13 (29:00):
Music, and nightlife, just in time for the World Cup,
the Super Bowl and of course the Olympics.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Oh we wish, I wish Santa Monica. Well, I love
Third Street used to the way what was you know,
twenty thirty years ago? But let's find out what they're
going to do to it now.
Speaker 13 (29:14):
Joining us now is Alex Wall, the man behind that vision.
Speaker 12 (29:19):
Alex thank you so much for being.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
Here, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 12 (29:22):
Tell me about your dream for this space.
Speaker 9 (29:24):
So the dream is to build a connected ecosystem of
world class hospitality, nightlife, and entertainment concepts.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
I like it so far that.
Speaker 9 (29:36):
Collaborate instead of compete. So this is meant to take
place on the north end of Third Street Promenade. We
want to create a place that's safe, clean, and is
alive from day to night and really somewhere that you know,
is somewhere that people are excited and proud.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Okay, we need more specifics.
Speaker 9 (29:55):
To take their friends and family when they visit from
out of town.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
All right, what does it look like?
Speaker 13 (30:00):
We know what the problems are in Santa Monica. They're
well documented. People have been concerned, they've been staying home
from that area. Right, how do you draw them back
and give them that sense of safety again?
Speaker 9 (30:11):
I think it's really about kind of you know. I'm
glad that you covered a bit earlier about what the
city you're working on for the promenade.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
I don't know if this is the guy. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
I think we need more energy out there. This guy,
he is unaware that that question was going to come up.
Then how are you going to protect the citizens from
the crazy people live in Santa Monica or at Santa Monica.
Speaker 1 (30:36):
This is not the guy. It sounds like a guy
who lives out there on the streets. This is not
This is not the guy.
Speaker 10 (30:48):
Because I heard this and I watched it and I
thought the exact same thing.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but it
sounds like a guy who lives on the streets out there.
Speaker 9 (30:59):
A few of the highlights that you mentioned with downtown,
the police substation that they're bringing in. They're putting three
and a half million dollars in to fix the sidewalks, lighting, signage,
and tree canopies, landscaping in the area.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
They're also streamlining the.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
What about the homeless? Any word on that.
Speaker 9 (31:18):
They're also streamlining the permitting process, so what about the homeless?
They're reducing the fees and kind of making it easier
for operators.
Speaker 1 (31:25):
To get involved about the crazies.
Speaker 9 (31:27):
I think the main thing is just going to be
if we create concepts and create an environment that feel
safe and new and exciting, that people are going to
come back.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
They're not unless you get rid of the crazy people.
Speaker 13 (31:41):
That are out there and you are soliciting feedback from
the community, so you're hoping that people will tell you
what they would like to see on the promenade.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
That's right, get rid of crazy people.
Speaker 9 (31:50):
Yeah, I think this is really the most important part
of the process because we need to make sure that
what we build on the promenade reflects the wants and
needs of the people that live and work in the area.
Speaker 1 (32:03):
That's right, about thirty years too late, but he's on track.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
So I've been asking people the kind of venues that
they'd like to see, the kind of designs.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Wait, wait, I thought you were the guy putting all together.
Now we're in a the very beginning, infant stages of this.
Speaker 9 (32:18):
So I've been asking people the kind of venues that
they'd like to see, the kind of design styles that
they gravitate most towards.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Yeah, it sounds like we're a long way away.
Speaker 9 (32:27):
And also what are the current issues in hospitality so
that we can address those issues when we build this
whole thing out. So it's really about engineering success from
the ground up and bringing the community together. So far,
the response has been amazing. It's been really.
Speaker 1 (32:43):
Helpful response to what what's the plan?
Speaker 4 (32:46):
The response has been amazing.
Speaker 9 (32:48):
It's been really helpful, and I'd encourage anyone else who
knows what great nights out look like to be a
part of the conversation and follow along on at the
Instagram or social media's and part of the conversation.
Speaker 13 (33:00):
Yeah, and you've had that conversation on social media, which
is really interesting. The pesky part, of course, is getting
the funding. So how are you doing in that department
of trying to get investors?
Speaker 4 (33:10):
Were good?
Speaker 9 (33:11):
I think there's one concept that is about eighty percent funded,
which will be Mood, which is a rooftop concept that
we're working on. And then it's just opportunities like this
to kind of showcase what we're working on and also
invite in other operators, quality operators with quality concepts who
can come and be a part of what we're trying
to build on the promenade.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
God, this sounds like the very beginning stages of a
ten year plan.
Speaker 13 (33:35):
Well, it's really beautiful, and you have a special event
coming up that you want to tell us about.
Speaker 9 (33:40):
Yes, definitely, so this Saturday. Well, the movement itself, it's
not just about.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
Opening new venues.
Speaker 9 (33:46):
We want to support the venues that are already there.
So we've partnered with the Brothers at Casa Martin. Cassa
Martin is an authentic Mexican restaurant, and we're doing a
Day of the Dead event there that starts at six
p on this Saturday.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Day of the Dead. You can do that anywhere in
the Santa Monica. You have to go to a Mexican
restaurant for that. Yeah, they the Dead is the walking
Dead is out there, and.
Speaker 9 (34:12):
We're collaborating with brands like Vove Clicko, Folcan Tequila, and
we're bringing in a Void sound system.
Speaker 4 (34:18):
So we're really trying to show that.
Speaker 1 (34:20):
Should do it.
Speaker 10 (34:20):
I guess I love areas, you know, the idea of that,
but kind of everything he was saying it was like, oh,
high class, world class Voove Clicko, and I'm just like, man,
I ain't got that kind of pocketbook to go there.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
If they do this, and he's going and the rooftop
bar called mood, I don't know what that is.
Speaker 10 (34:39):
Yeah, I mean, first of all, getting to Santa Monica
and getting to that promenade is the biggest pain in.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
The Yeah, it's like going to lax Yeah, and they're
getting off at Lincoln there. I mean it's you know,
sometimes you wait through five lights. Okay, well, I'm sure
we gotta take back, all right. We're live on kry
