A man died while riding Universal’s Epic roller coaster in Orlando, Florida. He died of multiple blunt-force injuries. Hurricane Gabrielle is presently off the East Coast! It’s been a low-key season when it comes to hurricanes making ground. Hurricane season typically runs from June 1 to November. During the San Francisco 49ers game over the weekend, defensive lineman Nick Bosa, who incurred a serious knee injury, walked off the pitch unassisted – with a torn ACL! We remember JetBlue Flight 292, which landed at LAX with its landing wheels perpendicular. Can you believe that happened 20 years ago today? The pilot was a hero! An unusual stock is going through the roof right now. It’s called BBW, which stands for Build-A-Bear!

Really, Oh, let's too bad.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
He had a pre existing spinal injury and almost taking medication.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
M gambler. Definitely a gambler in life. I bet you anything.
He knew where the five closest casinos were to Universal.
That's a gambler, right, and that's nothing wrong with that.
You just you know, people like that gamble in life,
and you know, sometimes you win, sometimes you don't.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
He had a pre existing spinal.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Existing spinal condition the point where you're on medication.
Speaker 7 (03:36):
Almost taking medication.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
The Stardust racers can hit speeds up to sixty two
miles per hour, and since its opening in May, has
had two incidents reported to the Florida Department of Agriculture
and Consumer Services. A sixty three year old with pre
existing conditions who became dizzy while on the ride.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Oh that was me. That was me.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
But look, if if you have pre existing stay off
the fast rides. You haven't gotten that message, you guys.
Sixty three year old years old and hasn't picked that
up yet, okay.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
And a forty seven year old, also with pre existing conditions,
who experienced numbness after the ride. The theme park said
as a precaution, they're closing the coaster while the investigation continues.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
They shouldn't close, they keep it open. You know, guys
with why ruin it over? You know, guys with all
these pre existing crazy conditions.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Universal writing in a statement, we are devastated by this
event and extend our sincerest sympathies to the guests.
Speaker 7 (04:35):
Loved ones.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
And now, with that ride shut down and questions swirling
about safety, investigators are coming through every bolt, beam and
report to figure out what happened and whether it can
happen again.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, look, the guy has you know, he wiped himself out.
All right, there's a hurricane, Hurricane Gabrielle off the east coast.
Speaker 9 (04:56):
Song Storms from Columbus Ohio right on down into northeastern Kentucky.
So you can see that line moving through that's even
had a few tornado warnings on it. But look Iowa
back into Omaha, Nebraska, Wichita nearly Oklahoma City to Garden City,
Kansas also have a threat right into the Ozarks. You'll
also see a flash flood threat that goes through tomorrow
and includes Little Rock now Hurricane Gabrielle.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
All right, here we go, Here we go the hurricane Now.
Speaker 9 (05:19):
Hurricane Gabrielle.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
You mentioned it.
Speaker 9 (05:20):
It's east of Bermuda by a few hundred miles. And
lind And thankfully remain a fish storm. However, the national
hurricanes some eighty and.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Fish what you call it a fish storm.
Speaker 9 (05:29):
Lind thankfully remain a fish storm.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
The fish storm, all right, I don't know what that is.
Maybe the fish are being the fish that have pre
existing conditions are being affected.
Speaker 9 (05:39):
Lind And thankfully remain a fish storm. However, the national
hurricanes some eighty and fifty percent chance respectively, of developing
into our next oppression that name would be Umbertom.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Okay, so far, I don't remember any big hurricanes this
hurricane season. We're already in late September, and I remember
one coming on shore as a big hurricane. This I
think all the predictions were wrong, all of them, all
the ones that said we'd have four to ten named
storms and caused billions of dollars of damage because of
(06:10):
global warming. So far, zero zero May, June, July, August,
and most of September. Five months zero zero hurricanes that
came on shore and destroyed the United States the mainland.
Zero So mad predictions. Again, all I rely on KFI
(06:32):
AM six forty AM sixth forty It is the Conway Show.
It looks like this might be the first storm of
the Earth Hurricane season runs from June first till November thirtieth,
so we've had June, July, August, September. We've had almost
four solid months without a hurricane. But looks like Gabriella
(06:54):
strengthens into a hurricane second of the twenty twenty five
Atlantic season. But the first one never came together, stayed
off the coast. There was some flooding, but not the
billions of dollars for the damage, and nothing really wiped
out of the mainland here. So it looks like Gabriella
(07:14):
it might be the first one. And we'll follow that.
We'll see. But if you have you're planning on going
to Florida or that part of the world, may want
to check in to make sure your flights are still going.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
When that's all going to have, you got to keep
an eye on it.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
You know, these storms could be a disaster. I was
watching football over the weekend. I was watching the forty
nine Ers game, because I get as much satisfaction watching
the forty nine ers lose as I do the Rams win.
And both didn't go my direction this weekend. Rams lost
(07:50):
in the last second and the forty nine ers won.
But the San Francisco forty nine Ers a guy named
Nick Bosa that plays for them.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I think he's a defensive.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
End indeed, and he has a serious knee injury, and
he went to the sidelines, you know, complaining about he's
in the past. He's torn as acl in both knees,
and he got injured, was on the ground in tremendous pain,
(08:22):
but he stood up without assistance and walked off the
field on his own with a torn ACL. They say
that is other than breaking your the top of your leg,
the femur, the major bone in your leg. That's the
most brutal injury you could sustain.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I've had it, have you? What was the pain like?
Speaker 10 (08:46):
Blew out my acl mcl moniscus and broke a bone in.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The same injury, yep, in what we were a motorcycle
playing basketball?
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Really? How old were you? Thirty?
Speaker 10 (08:56):
I went up for a dunk, landed very I went
up finally landed very awkwardly.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
What were you playing? I'm lower baskets. How could you dunk?
Speaker 10 (09:05):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
I have legs. You can dunk on a ten footer?
Speaker 10 (09:08):
Could past tense?
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Oh? Can't anymore?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Huh, I'm not. I'll tell you ever again. I'll tell
you five eight, five to nine. Really, you have that
kind of vertical leap.
Speaker 10 (09:17):
Yeah, I can't shoot a basketball very well, but I
had a lot of athleticisms. That's pretty cool when I
was thinner and a bounce your kids.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
But that, I mean, the pain must have been tremendous.
Speaker 11 (09:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (09:28):
I started blacking out like I somebody dumped water on
me and it was like ice water and that snapped
me right back. But uh, yeah, the pain was so
intense I started to black out. I didn't entirely, and
I kind of wish I did, But I was able to,
you know, hop my way off the court and get
make my way home. The next day I went and
(09:49):
got an MRI and showed everything.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
How long we got of business?
Speaker 12 (09:53):
Uh I?
Speaker 10 (09:54):
It took about two months for the bony hill before
they did the surgery.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Oh god, wow, what an injury.
Speaker 10 (10:01):
Yeah, it crushed the bone that they were trying to
screw the new ACL into. Are you still in pain today?
Oh yeah, every day. Some days are better than most,
but like today, I could feel it wobbles. Some days
it feels like it's Jenga. It's like one pull away
from just toppling.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
From ripping again.
Speaker 10 (10:21):
Yeah, just like it just feels not as stable I could.
I feel like I could consciously just twist my knee
and completely take it out where I can't do that
with my other one.
Speaker 13 (10:30):
Hmmm.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Well, this guy, who.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
This Nick Bosa is a very tough guy, walked off
the field after he towards ACL ACL walked off the field.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
They say, you can walk straight? Oh is that right?
But you can't like the second you turn, that's when
you start screwing up everything. It'd be painful as hell,
but you can walk straight.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, and he's done. It both anywhere. Yeah, were you
in the hospital? Uh the No.
Speaker 10 (11:00):
Next day, I just went to an orthopedic surgeon and swollen.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
It was bad.
Speaker 10 (11:05):
It looked really bad.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Oh my god, and thirties young for that to happen.
Speaker 10 (11:10):
Yeah, I shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, that's my I have friends who played tennis and basketball.
You know, they're all in their fifty late fifties, early sixties.
Every one of them, maybe without with one exception, has
had major injuries to their knees.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Or back or legs or whatever. Every one of them.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
And I remember a buddy of mine, a guy named
Jeff Warnick I went up for a layup and came
down and twisted his ankle. I think he's his foot
came down on some on the top of somebody else's foot,
and he tore his aclu and he was on the
He was on the ground screaming like like somebody had
you know, like he was on fire right screaming and screaming,
(11:55):
and you could hear it blocks away. I mean just
everybody in the park was looking at him. And my
buddy Frankie Ronzuli's smoking a cigarette at the time. We
just watched and smoked cigarettes. Our buddies played basketball and
we just gambled watch and smoked cigarettes. So he walked
over with a cigarette, looked down and goes, death ain't
(12:16):
gonna come easy to this one, And God love him.
He did pass away. But what a comment that was.
That was so great. Death aint gonna come easy this guy,
(12:37):
it turns out, and did he died. He died a
on a treadmill, like six years later, in great shape,
worked out, you know, always ate right, didn't drink, didn't smoke,
didn't do weed, didn't take pills, didn't do coke. And
he died at fifty four of a massive heart attack.
And then we discovered his dad died at fifty four
(13:00):
of a massive art attack, and his dad, his grandfather
died at fifty three of a massive heart attack. So
he tried to buy more time by eating well and
it just didn't work. Sometimes it's just the jeans man.
But I think about that guy every day. Jeff warnick Man,
one of the greatest guys in the world, one of
the funniest men I've ever met my life. Very sweet dude.
(13:22):
Missed that guy every day. We're live on KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 14 (13:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
KFI AM six forty. It is the Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
You know that.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Remember that Jet Blue plane that landed at Lax and
the front wheel was sideways. It was basically, you know,
perpendicular to the runway. And if it's parallel, that's fine,
everything's HOTSI tatsi. But if not, then that play could
(14:00):
crash and flip and do cartwheels. And the pilot was
told that the front tire was sideways, and so he
took all the bigger people and put him in the
back of the plane. How about that tap on your shoulder.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
I just gonna say, go.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Down the aisle and just go.
Speaker 8 (14:21):
You you, and you're like, please don't choose me, Please
don't choose me, Please don't choose me.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
You You're going to the back.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Why is that? Is there a roast back there?
Speaker 10 (14:30):
No?
Speaker 2 (14:30):
No, there's no roasts. Yeah, there's no frenzy going on.
There's no sandwich cart. You're just going to the back.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
What no buffet? Come on?
Speaker 11 (14:41):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Maybe they put a roast back there to get back
wrapped hot dogs back there. Yeah, maybe that's what they did.
They put some bacon odor back there. Oh, I'm going back.
I'm going back.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
People just start floating back there.
Speaker 12 (14:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
So they put everybody, all the tons of funds in
the bag and then they so they could slowly bring
the nose of that plane down after it landed.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
But he here's the question.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, oh wait, is that a big guy shit next
to me in the back of the plane.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
All right?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Here's the question though, without looking it up? How many
years ago was that?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Sam? Do you remember that when Jeff Blue landed? Lax?
Speaker 10 (15:12):
Honestly, I can't remember. I'm gonna just guess seven eighty seven, okay,
seven or eight? Let's go think eight? Okay, eight years ago?
Speaker 1 (15:22):
All right? Angel? How many years ago do you think
that was?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
I think it was ten ten?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
All right, bellyo, you know right? I know what about Nikki?
Do you know?
Speaker 4 (15:33):
I wasn't living here, so I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
You didn't hear in Australia.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
No, that's not big news, big news.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Down on the Do you call that an airplane?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
That's not accent either?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Oh, it's totally great, but that's my that's my English accent,
right either. And you wouldn't know anything about it because
you guys split from England.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
I lived in England.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Did you really wear Liverpool?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Liverpool? I was just filthy London squatter.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Okay, all right, well, welcome to the United States. Thanks, Yeah,
you got it, all right, Crocher? How many years ago
with that when the Jet Blue Blue plane landed at Lax,
I'm gonna go, like twenty years ago? Okay, it's exactly
twenty years ago today today? Wow, yeah, exactly twenty. I
was going to say four or five. That was twenty
(16:21):
years ago, twenty years.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
It's one of those things where you have to go, God,
what was it? Where was I remember?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
Because it is kind of one of those things you
it's close to remember where you were when you saw
it at the time.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
For me, yeah, I remember I was.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
We were on the air at KXLS, you know, and
when it landed, we were on the air watching this
thing and we're all sitting there and we couldn't believe
we're watching it live, watching it on KTLA Channel five
live landing at Lax.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
When we thought all these people are gonna die.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Okay, it's less than a half mile.
Speaker 13 (16:55):
The world held its breath as millions watched live well
the Jet Blue airbus touchdown at.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Lax twenty years ago, before colored TV, before the internet,
you know, before cell phones.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
We all just sat there and watched it on our
black and white TVs.
Speaker 13 (17:09):
Its front landing gear, wheels stocked turned sideways.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Well, the pilot gently lowered the nose to the runway.
Speaker 14 (17:17):
Therek ohs, you see the smoke. The tires are now burning.
He's got thrust reversers on to slow down as much
as possible can. He'll be using the brakes. There's fire
coming out of those tires.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Oh is that how fishman? I believe so? Sounds like,
Oh yeah, he would have been around for sure.
Speaker 14 (17:33):
Can He'll be using the brakes. There's fire coming out
of those tires.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Oh wow, he's running out of runway here. He's got
about another five hundred yards before he reaches the end
of this runway here.
Speaker 14 (17:43):
That's okay, he'll I'm sure he'll stop.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
The first press is on. He is bring it to
a quick slow stop here though towards the end. That's
an incredible job by those pilots.
Speaker 14 (17:52):
Beautiful, beautiful job.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Yeah, everybody was thrilled when that happened. Then they were
The pilots were escorted to the lighthouse where John F.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Kennedy gave him some kind of award for that.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
As the A three to twenty airbus ground, it was stopped.
The friction fire on the landing gear now out. One
hundred and forty six people on board were finally safe
on the ground as lax emergency vehicle swarmed around the plane.
Fire officials boarded, and after more than five minutes the
passengers came off with no reported injuries.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
The pilot did an outstanding job.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
He was able to keep that aircraft in the air
long enough to keep it on its back wheels and
just touched down right at the right time.
Speaker 13 (18:36):
The crew of flight two ninety two had immediately noticed
the front landing gear had not correctly retracted after a
three pm takeoff from Burbank Airport bound for New York's JFK.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Oh I don't remember that angle. I didn't remember it
left Burbank for JFK. I remember that angle at all.
Speaker 13 (18:53):
Since the airbus is not capable of dumping fuel, the
plane circled over Catalina Island for more than an hour.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Off some of its five hours supply of jet fuel.
Speaker 11 (19:03):
Wow.
Speaker 13 (19:03):
At first, the emergency landing was planned for long Beach Airport,
but then LAX, with its long runways, was chosen after
three hours of circling the pilots.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
About that three hours of circling and you know, not
knowing whether you're going to make it or not.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
Oh b three hours of circling.
Speaker 13 (19:22):
The pilot slowly approached runway twenty five left at LAX.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (19:34):
One thing everybody, airport officials, emergency evacuation people, what they
all seem to agree on is that pilot Scott Berg
did a fabulous job of landing that plane safely at LAX.
Speaker 6 (19:48):
In Los Angeles. Jim Nash.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Jim Nash, That's who that was, Jim Nash, although back
in the studio probably was Hellfish.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 11 (19:54):
The passengers were told there was a problem with the
landing gear, but it was only when they saw TV
and it just of their own plane, that they realized
just how serious things were.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Oh, I wonder if they're watching it on board, you know,
because Jet Blue has those little TVs. You're like, hey,
where's it, what's that? Wow, that plane's gonna go. Oh Christ,
that's our plane. That's us.
Speaker 11 (20:14):
Jet Blue planes have direct TV seats at each seat.
They were the breaking news Zachary mass Tune took this
picture of his TV screen, this picture of his seat mates.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
This was Zachary, and nobody thought.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
No flight attendant thought to shut that direct TV off
and not allow these people to watch that.
Speaker 11 (20:35):
Apparently not very scared.
Speaker 15 (20:37):
I luckily had a little bit of drink before getting
on the plane. So I think that had I been sober,
I would have had a much different experience with the situation.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, you know, that's with everything in life, everything in life. Yeah,
I thought I was going to be really a paranoid,
but I had nine drinks before, so I was pretty loose,
pretty loose when that happened.
Speaker 15 (20:57):
I luckily had a little bit of drink before getting
on the So I think that had I been sober,
I would have had a much different experience.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
With the situation.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Yeah, that's the environment too on the ground, and that's
with everything's waiting everything.
Speaker 11 (21:11):
Christianna Lund saw a variety of reactions among her fellow passengers.
Speaker 12 (21:15):
Some people were crying and some people were calm. Some
people didn't even realize what was going on because they
were just watching asleep or whatever.
Speaker 11 (21:23):
LUN's father, meanwhile, herd on the radio that a jet
Blue plane was in trouble.
Speaker 16 (21:28):
I just thought, it's gotta be her flight. I knew
she left this afternoon. I didn't get a chance to
say goodbye because I was working, and I felt really bad,
and I just thought, with she's on that plane.
Speaker 11 (21:39):
As Jet Blue two fifty two approached the field, passengers
were told to assume the brace position.
Speaker 12 (21:45):
Or I don't know if anybody was crying or screaming.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
And I think it was to ninety two. Did you
say two fifty.
Speaker 11 (21:51):
Two as Jet Blue two fifty two.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I think it was ninety two, or I don't.
Speaker 12 (21:55):
Know if anybody was crying or screaming. And just like
I felt like I was just in my own little
world at that point, and you.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Know I was.
Speaker 12 (22:02):
That's when I got really scared, because I was like,
this is set, you know, zo or die? Who knows
what's going to happen now.
Speaker 11 (22:07):
Christianna's father had arrived at the airport just in time
to see the airplane pass over, but then he lost
it as it went behind buildings. He had to listen
to a radio play by play.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Wow what a day in La Man? That was wild
plane came to a stop and they mentioned the whole
world was watching. The whole world was watching us in LA,
and that pilot landed that plane and saved everybody's life.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
That was a cool day.
Speaker 16 (22:31):
Plane came to a stop and they mentioned that there
were a little bit of a spark, a little bit
of plane, but it was apparently from the landing here
something I got. I couldn't see it, of course, and
then I just I lost control and I just sobbed
and sobbed.
Speaker 11 (22:45):
And for this dad, it was one of the great
moments in a lifetime.
Speaker 16 (22:49):
I welcomed her when she was born, and this equals that.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
It's just that same treasured moment.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
What a story this guy has, right, he's all emotional.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Was on that plane. What a story this is? And
this equals that.
Speaker 16 (23:04):
I'll tell you, it's just that same treasured moment.
Speaker 11 (23:07):
Christianna Lund said she was going to spend some time
with her family and then later today she was going
to fly to New York on a Jet Blue plane.
Frank Buckley KTLA.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
News, Oh, Frank Buckley a young field reporter. Man, oh man,
how about the balls on that chick? Though you know
she almost dies in a plane crash. She spends an
hour with her mom and dad and gets back on
a jet blue.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah right, I need a break. I think i'd be driving.
I think a you know, tempted fate.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Although when's the last time two plane crash you know,
happened in the same day.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
She's predisastered. Yeah, maybe that's the day to go. Yeah,
that's exactly. You know, they're going to make sure the
next one's right.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Although I'd like to find out how many of those
cats were on my plane, because you're only dealt a
certain amount of luck in life, you know, I don't
want to be sitting next to any of those cats.
For the US Airways that went into the Hudson, they've
already spent their luck. You're already You're only born with
a certain amount of life, ma'am, and once you use it,
good night. I rely on Kim six forty k if
I am sick forty.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
It is the Conways show.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
There's an unusual stock out there that's going through the roof.
And maybe if you have kids, you probably I mean,
if you have kids that are you know, young, you
probably know about this. It's called build a Bear, where
you go in and the kid picks out a stuffed animal.
He picks out the skin and they fill it with
a heart, they fill it with stuffing, and you name it,
(24:35):
and there's a birth certificate and you buy different clothes
for it, and people have like you know, if you
have kids, maybe they have two or three different build
of bears and it's a whole process. My daughter really
enjoyed it. She loved when she was young going into
build a Bear and getting a bear. And I went
with her two or three times, and she had a
great time every single time we went there. And it
(24:56):
was because of the service of the place, the people
that helped droughout, and they felt like like they were family,
like she was out. I mean, I know it's expensive
and it's probably you know, a money grab her.
Speaker 10 (25:10):
But for that hour that she was there, they treated
her properly.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
It wasn't that expensive, and she enjoyed it, and so
I spent the money. So that stock five years ago
was two dollars and sixty four cents a share. Build
a Bear BBW and BBW isn't that them? Was that big,
big beautiful woman? Is that what it stands for? From
(25:34):
what I've heard? Yeah, BBW, that's their that's their ticker
sign on the New York stock Exchange. Okay, so BBW
build a Bear Workshop was at two dollars and sixty
four cents exactly five years ago to the week. Five
years ago two dollars and sixty four cents now seventy
(25:56):
one dollars and twenty six cents. So if you put
in fifty thousand dollars and bought that stock, that you
would now have one point three million dollars.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Is that right? Wait a minute, Okay, let's say fifty thousand.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Divide it by two point six four, so you'd have
eighteen thousand, nine hundred and thirty nine shares. Multiply that
by seventy one point two six Yeah, one point three five,
one point three four nine, one million, three hundred and
forty nine thousand dollars From your fifty grand you could
(26:34):
have had almost a million and a half dollars. I
mean one point three one point three million, Yeah, one million,
three hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
But nobody knows.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
You never know what the right stock to buy is,
or what to sell or when to do it, and
you just, you know, you always kick yourself in the ass.
You should have bought Amazon, You should have bought Costco, Apple, Tesla,
all these great stocks that you thought were no brainers,
and you didn't pull the trigger like me. I always said,
(27:07):
when even thirty years ago, whenever, when Tesla started, I said,
buy Tesla stock.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
This guy knows what he's doing. I didn't. I never
bought a share for a lot of reasons.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I spent most of my money at the racetrack, and
that's that's paid off.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Nice, real happy I did that.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
But Tesla stock, if you let's see what Tesla was
over the years historically, for at all time, Tesla traded
today at four hundred and thirty four in change, four
hundred and thirty four dollars and change. And you could
have bought in tests. You could have purchased Tesla stock
back in two thy ten, okay, fifteen years ago, you
(27:53):
could have purchased a share of Tesla stock for one
dollar and twenty seven cents to share. And I remember
when I started here at KFI, I was always saying
bye Tesla, by Tesla, get Tesla.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
And it was one dollar. The low was one dollar and.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Seventeen cents for a share of Tesla stock one dollar
and seventeen pennies. Today it's at four thirty four, but
I'm sure it's split a couple of times as well,
so God only knows how much it is. You know,
it is possibly worth if you put in fifty thousand,
(28:31):
it's got to be closer to you know, twenty million
at this point. All right, don't forget the Jimmy Cable
tomorrow night. He is back on the air tomorrow night.
So thank thank god, all those jobs were saved, and
Sinclair will not be running it. Next Star hasn't spoken
up yet, but I'm sure they'll follow suit. But we'll

where that is? The TENI it's beautiful out there. Yeah,
that's great, all right.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
Epic Universals, Epic roller Coaster, there's a death, bad news.
One of my fears is dying on a ride and
having everyone make a big deal out of it. And
this guy did it he went on this Epic Universal
roller coaster and hu, yeah, he didn't make it.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
New details into the death of a man who was
found unresponsive on a roller coaster at Universal Orlando.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Resort Open Up a man Location.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
The medical examiner saying thirty two year old Kevin Rodriguez
Avalla died of multiple blunt impact injuries Wednesday while riding
the Stardust Racers roller coaster at Epic Universe Theme Park.
Speaker 6 (01:49):
I was scared, like everyone was scared.
Speaker 7 (01:52):
Tommy Italiano was online.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
What a name? Huh, Tommy Italiana, Tommy Italiano, Oh Bellio Man,
that I could have been your husband.
Speaker 4 (02:01):
That is beautiful.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
That is one hell of a name. God does that
name embrace his past?
Speaker 7 (02:06):
Tommy Italiano?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Ah Christ everything about that guy's Italian? Wow?
Speaker 7 (02:11):
It was online for the ride when he heard screaming.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
There was a big piece of metal from the seat
that was detached, hanging off of the coast.
Speaker 5 (02:20):
New Dispatch audio released a fire rescue responding to a
patient with the laceration who was unresponsive. Orange Jenny Fire
Rescue is on seeing CPR in progress, being advised not
looking good. The victim quickly taken to a nearby hospital.
Where he was pronounced dead. According to the incident report,
Zavala's girlfriend telling the Sheriff's office he had a pre
(02:42):
existing spinal injury.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
Ah okay, well then Universal, You know, how can they
be at fault.
Speaker 8 (02:49):
Like the the the stated stuff on the outside. All right, yeah, day,
you know, pregnant women, people have cart.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Issues, people taking tile and all the whole. You know, again,
stay off these rides, by.
Speaker 8 (03:02):
The way, I was told the remote was canceled today.
It was I don't know why.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Really, Oh, let's too bad.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
He had a pre existing spinal injury and almost taking medication.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
M gambler. Definitely a gambler in life. I bet you anything.
He knew where the five closest casinos were to Universal.
That's a gambler, right, and that's nothing wrong with that.
You just you know, people like that gamble in life,
and you know, sometimes you win, sometimes you don't.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
He had a pre existing spinal.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Existing spinal condition the point where you're on medication.
Speaker 7 (03:36):
Almost taking medication.
Speaker 5 (03:39):
The Stardust racers can hit speeds up to sixty two
miles per hour, and since its opening in May, has
had two incidents reported to the Florida Department of Agriculture
and Consumer Services. A sixty three year old with pre
existing conditions who became dizzy while on the ride.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Oh that was me. That was me.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
But look, if if you have pre existing stay off
the fast rides. You haven't gotten that message, you guys.
Sixty three year old years old and hasn't picked that
up yet, okay.
Speaker 5 (04:08):
And a forty seven year old, also with pre existing conditions,
who experienced numbness after the ride. The theme park said
as a precaution, they're closing the coaster while the investigation continues.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
They shouldn't close, they keep it open. You know, guys
with why ruin it over? You know, guys with all
these pre existing crazy conditions.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
Universal writing in a statement, we are devastated by this
event and extend our sincerest sympathies to the guests.
Speaker 7 (04:35):
Loved ones.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
And now, with that ride shut down and questions swirling
about safety, investigators are coming through every bolt, beam and
report to figure out what happened and whether it can
happen again.
Speaker 2 (04:46):
Yeah, look, the guy has you know, he wiped himself out.
All right, there's a hurricane, Hurricane Gabrielle off the east coast.
Speaker 9 (04:56):
Song Storms from Columbus Ohio right on down into northeastern Kentucky.
So you can see that line moving through that's even
had a few tornado warnings on it. But look Iowa
back into Omaha, Nebraska, Wichita nearly Oklahoma City to Garden City,
Kansas also have a threat right into the Ozarks. You'll
also see a flash flood threat that goes through tomorrow
and includes Little Rock now Hurricane Gabrielle.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
All right, here we go, Here we go the hurricane Now.
Speaker 9 (05:19):
Hurricane Gabrielle.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
You mentioned it.
Speaker 9 (05:20):
It's east of Bermuda by a few hundred miles. And
lind And thankfully remain a fish storm. However, the national
hurricanes some eighty and.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Fish what you call it a fish storm.
Speaker 9 (05:29):
Lind thankfully remain a fish storm.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
The fish storm, all right, I don't know what that is.
Maybe the fish are being the fish that have pre
existing conditions are being affected.
Speaker 9 (05:39):
Lind And thankfully remain a fish storm. However, the national
hurricanes some eighty and fifty percent chance respectively, of developing
into our next oppression that name would be Umbertom.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Okay, so far, I don't remember any big hurricanes this
hurricane season. We're already in late September, and I remember
one coming on shore as a big hurricane. This I
think all the predictions were wrong, all of them, all
the ones that said we'd have four to ten named
storms and caused billions of dollars of damage because of
(06:10):
global warming. So far, zero zero May, June, July, August,
and most of September. Five months zero zero hurricanes that
came on shore and destroyed the United States the mainland.
Zero So mad predictions. Again, all I rely on KFI
(06:32):
AM six forty AM sixth forty It is the Conway Show.
It looks like this might be the first storm of
the Earth Hurricane season runs from June first till November thirtieth,
so we've had June, July, August, September. We've had almost
four solid months without a hurricane. But looks like Gabriella
(06:54):
strengthens into a hurricane second of the twenty twenty five
Atlantic season. But the first one never came together, stayed
off the coast. There was some flooding, but not the
billions of dollars for the damage, and nothing really wiped
out of the mainland here. So it looks like Gabriella
(07:14):
it might be the first one. And we'll follow that.
We'll see. But if you have you're planning on going
to Florida or that part of the world, may want
to check in to make sure your flights are still going.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
When that's all going to have, you got to keep
an eye on it.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
You know, these storms could be a disaster. I was
watching football over the weekend. I was watching the forty
nine Ers game, because I get as much satisfaction watching
the forty nine ers lose as I do the Rams win.
And both didn't go my direction this weekend. Rams lost
(07:50):
in the last second and the forty nine ers won.
But the San Francisco forty nine Ers a guy named
Nick Bosa that plays for them.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I think he's a defensive.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
End indeed, and he has a serious knee injury, and
he went to the sidelines, you know, complaining about he's
in the past. He's torn as acl in both knees,
and he got injured, was on the ground in tremendous pain,
(08:22):
but he stood up without assistance and walked off the
field on his own with a torn ACL. They say
that is other than breaking your the top of your leg,
the femur, the major bone in your leg. That's the
most brutal injury you could sustain.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I've had it, have you? What was the pain like?
Speaker 10 (08:46):
Blew out my acl mcl moniscus and broke a bone in.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The same injury, yep, in what we were a motorcycle
playing basketball?
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Really? How old were you? Thirty?
Speaker 10 (08:56):
I went up for a dunk, landed very I went
up finally landed very awkwardly.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
What were you playing? I'm lower baskets. How could you dunk?
Speaker 10 (09:05):
No?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
I have legs. You can dunk on a ten footer?
Speaker 10 (09:08):
Could past tense?
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Oh? Can't anymore?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Huh, I'm not. I'll tell you ever again. I'll tell
you five eight, five to nine. Really, you have that
kind of vertical leap.
Speaker 10 (09:17):
Yeah, I can't shoot a basketball very well, but I
had a lot of athleticisms. That's pretty cool when I
was thinner and a bounce your kids.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
But that, I mean, the pain must have been tremendous.
Speaker 11 (09:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (09:28):
I started blacking out like I somebody dumped water on
me and it was like ice water and that snapped
me right back. But uh, yeah, the pain was so
intense I started to black out. I didn't entirely, and
I kind of wish I did, But I was able to,
you know, hop my way off the court and get
make my way home. The next day I went and
(09:49):
got an MRI and showed everything.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
How long we got of business?
Speaker 12 (09:53):
Uh I?
Speaker 10 (09:54):
It took about two months for the bony hill before
they did the surgery.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Oh god, wow, what an injury.
Speaker 10 (10:01):
Yeah, it crushed the bone that they were trying to
screw the new ACL into. Are you still in pain today?
Oh yeah, every day. Some days are better than most,
but like today, I could feel it wobbles. Some days
it feels like it's Jenga. It's like one pull away
from just toppling.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
From ripping again.
Speaker 10 (10:21):
Yeah, just like it just feels not as stable I could.
I feel like I could consciously just twist my knee
and completely take it out where I can't do that
with my other one.
Speaker 13 (10:30):
Hmmm.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Well, this guy, who.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
This Nick Bosa is a very tough guy, walked off
the field after he towards ACL ACL walked off the field.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
They say, you can walk straight? Oh is that right?
But you can't like the second you turn, that's when
you start screwing up everything. It'd be painful as hell,
but you can walk straight.
Speaker 7 (10:53):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Yeah, and he's done. It both anywhere. Yeah, were you
in the hospital? Uh the No.
Speaker 10 (11:00):
Next day, I just went to an orthopedic surgeon and swollen.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
It was bad.
Speaker 10 (11:05):
It looked really bad.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Oh my god, and thirties young for that to happen.
Speaker 10 (11:10):
Yeah, I shouldn't have done that.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, that's my I have friends who played tennis and basketball.
You know, they're all in their fifty late fifties, early sixties.
Every one of them, maybe without with one exception, has
had major injuries to their knees.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Or back or legs or whatever. Every one of them.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
And I remember a buddy of mine, a guy named
Jeff Warnick I went up for a layup and came
down and twisted his ankle. I think he's his foot
came down on some on the top of somebody else's foot,
and he tore his aclu and he was on the
He was on the ground screaming like like somebody had
you know, like he was on fire right screaming and screaming,
(11:55):
and you could hear it blocks away. I mean just
everybody in the park was looking at him. And my
buddy Frankie Ronzuli's smoking a cigarette at the time. We
just watched and smoked cigarettes. Our buddies played basketball and
we just gambled watch and smoked cigarettes. So he walked
over with a cigarette, looked down and goes, death ain't
(12:16):
gonna come easy to this one, And God love him.
He did pass away. But what a comment that was.
That was so great. Death aint gonna come easy this guy,
(12:37):
it turns out, and did he died. He died a
on a treadmill, like six years later, in great shape,
worked out, you know, always ate right, didn't drink, didn't smoke,
didn't do weed, didn't take pills, didn't do coke. And
he died at fifty four of a massive heart attack.
And then we discovered his dad died at fifty four
(13:00):
of a massive art attack, and his dad, his grandfather
died at fifty three of a massive heart attack. So
he tried to buy more time by eating well and
it just didn't work. Sometimes it's just the jeans man.
But I think about that guy every day. Jeff warnick Man,
one of the greatest guys in the world, one of
the funniest men I've ever met my life. Very sweet dude.
(13:22):
Missed that guy every day. We're live on KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 14 (13:27):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
KFI AM six forty. It is the Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
You know that.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Remember that Jet Blue plane that landed at Lax and
the front wheel was sideways. It was basically, you know,
perpendicular to the runway. And if it's parallel, that's fine,
everything's HOTSI tatsi. But if not, then that play could
(14:00):
crash and flip and do cartwheels. And the pilot was
told that the front tire was sideways, and so he
took all the bigger people and put him in the
back of the plane. How about that tap on your shoulder.
Speaker 8 (14:17):
I just gonna say, go.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Down the aisle and just go.
Speaker 8 (14:21):
You you, and you're like, please don't choose me, Please
don't choose me, Please don't choose me.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
You You're going to the back.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Why is that? Is there a roast back there?
Speaker 10 (14:30):
No?
Speaker 2 (14:30):
No, there's no roasts. Yeah, there's no frenzy going on.
There's no sandwich cart. You're just going to the back.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
What no buffet? Come on?
Speaker 11 (14:41):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Maybe they put a roast back there to get back
wrapped hot dogs back there. Yeah, maybe that's what they did.
They put some bacon odor back there. Oh, I'm going back.
I'm going back.
Speaker 1 (14:49):
People just start floating back there.
Speaker 12 (14:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
So they put everybody, all the tons of funds in
the bag and then they so they could slowly bring
the nose of that plane down after it landed.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
But he here's the question.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Yeah, oh wait, is that a big guy shit next
to me in the back of the plane.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
All right?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Here's the question though, without looking it up? How many
years ago was that?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
Sam? Do you remember that when Jeff Blue landed? Lax?
Speaker 10 (15:12):
Honestly, I can't remember. I'm gonna just guess seven eighty seven, okay,
seven or eight? Let's go think eight? Okay, eight years ago?
Speaker 1 (15:22):
All right? Angel? How many years ago do you think
that was?
Speaker 4 (15:25):
I think it was ten ten?
Speaker 1 (15:27):
All right, bellyo, you know right? I know what about Nikki?
Do you know?
Speaker 4 (15:33):
I wasn't living here, so I don't know.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
You didn't hear in Australia.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
No, that's not big news, big news.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Down on the Do you call that an airplane?
Speaker 4 (15:41):
That's not accent either?
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Oh, it's totally great, but that's my that's my English accent,
right either. And you wouldn't know anything about it because
you guys split from England.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
I lived in England.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Did you really wear Liverpool?
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Liverpool? I was just filthy London squatter.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Okay, all right, well, welcome to the United States. Thanks, Yeah,
you got it, all right, Crocher? How many years ago
with that when the Jet Blue Blue plane landed at Lax,
I'm gonna go, like twenty years ago? Okay, it's exactly
twenty years ago today today? Wow, yeah, exactly twenty. I
was going to say four or five. That was twenty
(16:21):
years ago, twenty years.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
It's one of those things where you have to go, God,
what was it? Where was I remember?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
Because it is kind of one of those things you
it's close to remember where you were when you saw
it at the time.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
For me, yeah, I remember I was.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
We were on the air at KXLS, you know, and
when it landed, we were on the air watching this
thing and we're all sitting there and we couldn't believe
we're watching it live, watching it on KTLA Channel five
live landing at Lax.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
When we thought all these people are gonna die.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Okay, it's less than a half mile.
Speaker 13 (16:55):
The world held its breath as millions watched live well
the Jet Blue airbus touchdown at.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Lax twenty years ago, before colored TV, before the internet,
you know, before cell phones.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
We all just sat there and watched it on our
black and white TVs.
Speaker 13 (17:09):
Its front landing gear, wheels stocked turned sideways.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (17:13):
Well, the pilot gently lowered the nose to the runway.
Speaker 14 (17:17):
Therek ohs, you see the smoke. The tires are now burning.
He's got thrust reversers on to slow down as much
as possible can. He'll be using the brakes. There's fire
coming out of those tires.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Oh is that how fishman? I believe so? Sounds like,
Oh yeah, he would have been around for sure.
Speaker 14 (17:33):
Can He'll be using the brakes. There's fire coming out
of those tires.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Oh wow, he's running out of runway here. He's got
about another five hundred yards before he reaches the end
of this runway here.
Speaker 14 (17:43):
That's okay, he'll I'm sure he'll stop.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
The first press is on. He is bring it to
a quick slow stop here though towards the end. That's
an incredible job by those pilots.
Speaker 14 (17:52):
Beautiful, beautiful job.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Yeah, everybody was thrilled when that happened. Then they were
The pilots were escorted to the lighthouse where John F.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Kennedy gave him some kind of award for that.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
As the A three to twenty airbus ground, it was stopped.
The friction fire on the landing gear now out. One
hundred and forty six people on board were finally safe
on the ground as lax emergency vehicle swarmed around the plane.
Fire officials boarded, and after more than five minutes the
passengers came off with no reported injuries.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
The pilot did an outstanding job.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
He was able to keep that aircraft in the air
long enough to keep it on its back wheels and
just touched down right at the right time.
Speaker 13 (18:36):
The crew of flight two ninety two had immediately noticed
the front landing gear had not correctly retracted after a
three pm takeoff from Burbank Airport bound for New York's JFK.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Oh I don't remember that angle. I didn't remember it
left Burbank for JFK. I remember that angle at all.
Speaker 13 (18:53):
Since the airbus is not capable of dumping fuel, the
plane circled over Catalina Island for more than an hour.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Off some of its five hours supply of jet fuel.
Speaker 11 (19:03):
Wow.
Speaker 13 (19:03):
At first, the emergency landing was planned for long Beach Airport,
but then LAX, with its long runways, was chosen after
three hours of circling the pilots.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
About that three hours of circling and you know, not
knowing whether you're going to make it or not.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
Oh b three hours of circling.
Speaker 13 (19:22):
The pilot slowly approached runway twenty five left at LAX.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (19:34):
One thing everybody, airport officials, emergency evacuation people, what they
all seem to agree on is that pilot Scott Berg
did a fabulous job of landing that plane safely at LAX.
Speaker 6 (19:48):
In Los Angeles. Jim Nash.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
Jim Nash, That's who that was, Jim Nash, although back
in the studio probably was Hellfish.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 11 (19:54):
The passengers were told there was a problem with the
landing gear, but it was only when they saw TV
and it just of their own plane, that they realized
just how serious things were.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Oh, I wonder if they're watching it on board, you know,
because Jet Blue has those little TVs. You're like, hey,
where's it, what's that? Wow, that plane's gonna go. Oh Christ,
that's our plane. That's us.
Speaker 11 (20:14):
Jet Blue planes have direct TV seats at each seat.
They were the breaking news Zachary mass Tune took this
picture of his TV screen, this picture of his seat mates.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
This was Zachary, and nobody thought.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
No flight attendant thought to shut that direct TV off
and not allow these people to watch that.
Speaker 11 (20:35):
Apparently not very scared.
Speaker 15 (20:37):
I luckily had a little bit of drink before getting
on the plane. So I think that had I been sober,
I would have had a much different experience with the situation.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, you know, that's with everything in life, everything in life. Yeah,
I thought I was going to be really a paranoid,
but I had nine drinks before, so I was pretty loose,
pretty loose when that happened.
Speaker 15 (20:57):
I luckily had a little bit of drink before getting
on the So I think that had I been sober,
I would have had a much different experience.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
With the situation.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Yeah, that's the environment too on the ground, and that's
with everything's waiting everything.
Speaker 11 (21:11):
Christianna Lund saw a variety of reactions among her fellow passengers.
Speaker 12 (21:15):
Some people were crying and some people were calm. Some
people didn't even realize what was going on because they
were just watching asleep or whatever.
Speaker 11 (21:23):
LUN's father, meanwhile, herd on the radio that a jet
Blue plane was in trouble.
Speaker 16 (21:28):
I just thought, it's gotta be her flight. I knew
she left this afternoon. I didn't get a chance to
say goodbye because I was working, and I felt really bad,
and I just thought, with she's on that plane.
Speaker 11 (21:39):
As Jet Blue two fifty two approached the field, passengers
were told to assume the brace position.
Speaker 12 (21:45):
Or I don't know if anybody was crying or screaming.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
And I think it was to ninety two. Did you
say two fifty.
Speaker 11 (21:51):
Two as Jet Blue two fifty two.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
I think it was ninety two, or I don't.
Speaker 12 (21:55):
Know if anybody was crying or screaming. And just like
I felt like I was just in my own little
world at that point, and you.
Speaker 6 (22:01):
Know I was.
Speaker 12 (22:02):
That's when I got really scared, because I was like,
this is set, you know, zo or die? Who knows
what's going to happen now.
Speaker 11 (22:07):
Christianna's father had arrived at the airport just in time
to see the airplane pass over, but then he lost
it as it went behind buildings. He had to listen
to a radio play by play.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Wow what a day in La Man? That was wild
plane came to a stop and they mentioned the whole
world was watching. The whole world was watching us in LA,
and that pilot landed that plane and saved everybody's life.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
That was a cool day.
Speaker 16 (22:31):
Plane came to a stop and they mentioned that there
were a little bit of a spark, a little bit
of plane, but it was apparently from the landing here
something I got. I couldn't see it, of course, and
then I just I lost control and I just sobbed
and sobbed.
Speaker 11 (22:45):
And for this dad, it was one of the great
moments in a lifetime.
Speaker 16 (22:49):
I welcomed her when she was born, and this equals that.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
It's just that same treasured moment.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
What a story this guy has, right, he's all emotional.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Was on that plane. What a story this is? And
this equals that.
Speaker 16 (23:04):
I'll tell you, it's just that same treasured moment.
Speaker 11 (23:07):
Christianna Lund said she was going to spend some time
with her family and then later today she was going
to fly to New York on a Jet Blue plane.
Frank Buckley KTLA.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
News, Oh, Frank Buckley a young field reporter. Man, oh man,
how about the balls on that chick? Though you know
she almost dies in a plane crash. She spends an
hour with her mom and dad and gets back on
a jet blue.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah right, I need a break. I think i'd be driving.
I think a you know, tempted fate.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Although when's the last time two plane crash you know,
happened in the same day.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
She's predisastered. Yeah, maybe that's the day to go. Yeah,
that's exactly. You know, they're going to make sure the
next one's right.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Although I'd like to find out how many of those
cats were on my plane, because you're only dealt a
certain amount of luck in life, you know, I don't
want to be sitting next to any of those cats.
For the US Airways that went into the Hudson, they've
already spent their luck. You're already You're only born with
a certain amount of life, ma'am, and once you use it,
good night. I rely on Kim six forty k if
I am sick forty.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
It is the Conways show.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
There's an unusual stock out there that's going through the roof.
And maybe if you have kids, you probably I mean,
if you have kids that are you know, young, you
probably know about this. It's called build a Bear, where
you go in and the kid picks out a stuffed animal.
He picks out the skin and they fill it with
a heart, they fill it with stuffing, and you name it,
(24:35):
and there's a birth certificate and you buy different clothes
for it, and people have like you know, if you
have kids, maybe they have two or three different build
of bears and it's a whole process. My daughter really
enjoyed it. She loved when she was young going into
build a Bear and getting a bear. And I went
with her two or three times, and she had a
great time every single time we went there. And it
(24:56):
was because of the service of the place, the people
that helped droughout, and they felt like like they were family,
like she was out. I mean, I know it's expensive
and it's probably you know, a money grab her.
Speaker 10 (25:10):
But for that hour that she was there, they treated
her properly.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
It wasn't that expensive, and she enjoyed it, and so
I spent the money. So that stock five years ago
was two dollars and sixty four cents a share. Build
a Bear BBW and BBW isn't that them? Was that big,
big beautiful woman? Is that what it stands for? From
(25:34):
what I've heard? Yeah, BBW, that's their that's their ticker
sign on the New York stock Exchange. Okay, so BBW
build a Bear Workshop was at two dollars and sixty
four cents exactly five years ago to the week. Five
years ago two dollars and sixty four cents now seventy
(25:56):
one dollars and twenty six cents. So if you put
in fifty thousand dollars and bought that stock, that you
would now have one point three million dollars.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Is that right? Wait a minute, Okay, let's say fifty thousand.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
Divide it by two point six four, so you'd have
eighteen thousand, nine hundred and thirty nine shares. Multiply that
by seventy one point two six Yeah, one point three five,
one point three four nine, one million, three hundred and
forty nine thousand dollars From your fifty grand you could
(26:34):
have had almost a million and a half dollars. I
mean one point three one point three million, Yeah, one million,
three hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
But nobody knows.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
You never know what the right stock to buy is,
or what to sell or when to do it, and
you just, you know, you always kick yourself in the ass.
You should have bought Amazon, You should have bought Costco, Apple, Tesla,
all these great stocks that you thought were no brainers,
and you didn't pull the trigger like me. I always said,
(27:07):
when even thirty years ago, whenever, when Tesla started, I said,
buy Tesla stock.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
This guy knows what he's doing. I didn't. I never
bought a share for a lot of reasons.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I spent most of my money at the racetrack, and
that's that's paid off.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Nice, real happy I did that.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
But Tesla stock, if you let's see what Tesla was
over the years historically, for at all time, Tesla traded
today at four hundred and thirty four in change, four
hundred and thirty four dollars and change. And you could
have bought in tests. You could have purchased Tesla stock
back in two thy ten, okay, fifteen years ago, you
(27:53):
could have purchased a share of Tesla stock for one
dollar and twenty seven cents to share. And I remember
when I started here at KFI, I was always saying
bye Tesla, by Tesla, get Tesla.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
And it was one dollar. The low was one dollar and.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Seventeen cents for a share of Tesla stock one dollar
and seventeen pennies. Today it's at four thirty four, but
I'm sure it's split a couple of times as well,
so God only knows how much it is. You know,
it is possibly worth if you put in fifty thousand,
(28:31):
it's got to be closer to you know, twenty million
at this point. All right, don't forget the Jimmy Cable
tomorrow night. He is back on the air tomorrow night.
So thank thank god, all those jobs were saved, and
Sinclair will not be running it. Next Star hasn't spoken
up yet, but I'm sure they'll follow suit. But we'll
