Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Five motorcycles
from a local police department. I don't know who it is.
I don't know if it's Inglewood or where it is.
I think that's Inglewood PD. It might be LAPD. But
there are four or five motorcycle cops following these guys

(00:24):
on bikes, on motorbikes, on dirt bikes, I should say.
Plus there's also it looks like a sheriff's car or
an Inglewood police car behind him as well. So they've
mellowed out a little now that there are four or
five very very fast, very powerful, all gassed up police
motorcycles behind them, and these police motorcycles will be able

(00:45):
to track at least five of those guys down. They
don't at this point, they don't really care, you know,
really which five it is. Maybe the League guy with
the motorcycle, the white motorcycle and the blue motorcycle looking
for him. But now they're looking back and you could
see them slowing down and a little bit of panic
now because there's at least five.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
It's in Inglewood.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
This is an Inglewood on Prairie coming up on one
hundred and ninetieth or one hundred and ninth Street. I
think that's I think that's near the form.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
They're getting close to that close to the form, Okay,
all right, close to so far and the form and
and now they're zipping through red lights with people in
the intersection.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
We're watching it on KTLA.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
KTLA is the only one that stayed with it, and
they were smart because it got into the It got
juicier is with the introduction of these five motor cops
behind them. And if you noticed, there's no more wheelies,
there's no more speeding. Now everyone's looking in the very mirror, going,
oh Christ, now what do we do because five of

(01:46):
them are going to go to jail because they can,
they can catch up and stay with these guys with
these Harley Davidson's. I think they're still riding at Harley's.
I don't know what else they ride. What else they ride? Crozes,
a cow is hockey that the motor bikes got me, man, Yeah,
I don't want the cops one nowadays.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
But we're watching it on Channel five. Now there's seven.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Now there's six of them behind him, six motor cops
behind them, and now a lot of slowing down, a
lot of panicking.

Speaker 2 (02:17):
Less, a lot less wheelies, a lot less.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
Wheelies, and right a prairie and century right in the
old Hollywood Park area.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Okay, all right, and now they're stopping at stop lights.
The episode into it.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Oh now they went through the stop light.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Okay, it's a whole group of it looks like thirty
motorcycles watching it on KTLA and they're following these motorbikes,
but there's at least six cops on motorcycles behind them.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
Let's see what the Channel five has to say about this.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
They wanted for the assault on the officer. He's lead,
kind of leading the pack now, but they are pulling
away from us, and unfortunately we have to stay over
the one O five freeway out of that air traffic.
But let me come out to a water shot. We'll
go away from the lead guys. And there are the
CHP six motors and one at least one unit. They're
in trail, all CHP officers there and you can see

(03:08):
what they're doing. They're splitting splitting cars up Englewood Boulevard
here and they're going to continue officers are going to
fall back on it out that they're going to continue
and we'll see if they go maybe they'll go east
or west here on one of this on the east
west sreets. But for now they're still staying up prairie.

Speaker 5 (03:25):
I can't remember seeing something like this pursuit of you know,
some almost twenty motorbikes with HP motorbikes, and I just
can't even imagine how this is going to end. How
does this you know, how do they apprehend them? They
can't use uh, spike strips. I mean, well, I mean

(03:46):
this is so unusual. You know, what are the tactics
that the motorbikes will use at this point to try
and and and stop this?

Speaker 2 (03:57):
You know, can they can follow up? They got to
go home eventually.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
It's mostly intimidation, knowing, you know, knowing that oh, those
those those cops behind us, they can stay up with us.
No matter where we go. We make a U turn,
they can make a U turn. If they go on
a side, If we go on a sidewalk, they can
go on a sidewalk. If they can go you know,
if we go in an alleyway, they can go in
an alleyway. If they go. If we decide to go
cut through a park, they can cut through the park.
So that's the intimidation factor that these units. These motor

(04:25):
officers can say, you know, basically, we're going to go
wherever you go until you run out of gas, and
then we'll make the arrest. Unfortunately, the two initially we
were in the pursuit stop they had time to stop
for fuel. Now they're all fueled up, so it could
go for a while.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
Oh, this is the cemetery right now.

Speaker 6 (04:42):
You can also switch out gield.

Speaker 3 (04:43):
They can switch out their motor officers, so they are
not going to run out of gas. We've seen that
happen before where they won't switch out units.

Speaker 6 (04:50):
But you mentioned the intimidation.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
These guys don't seem intimidated at all, and in fact
that it seems like they're taunting the officers and waving
to the helicopters that were overhead showing off doing wheelies
on their cell phones, perhaps live streaming exactly.

Speaker 6 (05:10):
I mean it, it's just ridiculous.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
Yeah, and here we are at Manchester heavy traffic. There
red lights and look at that going right up into
those cars. Now the motorcycle officers are pulling in there
so that they can get through, but they're right on
their tails. So they realize, hey, these officers on their
motorcycles can keep with them, keep up with them. We're
in trouble because we're eventually going to need fuel and

(05:35):
we're gonna have to jump off the away.

Speaker 5 (05:37):
From and looking at some of the top ten motorcycles
with the longest range, and if any of these guys
have one of these bikes, you know, whether it's a
cawat whatever, it might be on a full tank two
hundred and seventy five miles.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
And the sun sunlight, and this is going to even
get practiced.

Speaker 5 (06:00):
You know that's not the case. We don't know what
kind of bikes they're on. So I'm just giving you
what the top ten motorcycles longest range looks like.

Speaker 6 (06:08):
And so you know, they would think that at one point,
do it.

Speaker 5 (06:15):
A little bit more than just intimidation and uh and
and get these guys into custody or whoever it is
that they are really focused on, which I would think
is the one who is uh, you know, who was
able to strike a motor officer and is now wanted
for assault.

Speaker 6 (06:35):
Yeah, so we are going into.

Speaker 5 (06:37):
The lax coming through the space right now, and so
we LA in pursuit of multiple cemetery and.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
The forum for an old Kings game or Laker game
or a concert. These planes come right over the forum,
and so these helicopters can't.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
They've got to go way above this or way.

Speaker 5 (06:59):
Around it, and trying to keep an eye on those motorbikes.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Which is final approach for LAA.

Speaker 6 (07:05):
We count yes.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
It started out with two right, and then all of
a sudden we saw them on the phone. We don't
know if they were calling their buddies, live streaming, texting
people to come join in.

Speaker 6 (07:15):
But pretty soon we saw them to a.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
Gas station and one by one, now a crowd of
sixteen or seventeen here they are the back as well
have joined in this pursuit or a following.

Speaker 6 (07:27):
I guess it's a firsuit.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
Now they have really amped it up with the motorbikes
behind them, the HP motorbikes.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
The highway control is calling out.

Speaker 6 (07:34):
The street for four o'clock.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
With this where these guys are and the helicopters trying
to find it, we've.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Got to take a small break.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
When we come back, we're going to figure out whether
we can stay with them. It looks like Channel four,
both Channel four and Channel five are trying to go
around the final approach here at lax Too to pick
this up. But they've got to go way above this.
They've got to go I don't know. I remember Tim
Linton telling I think it's eight to ten thousand feet

(08:02):
up and above lax to our so they're not in
the final approach, or they've got to go around it.
And to go around it, you've got to go, you know,
clear down to the way down to the seven ten.
So that's a pain of the ass to try to
follow this. All the networks are off it now. When
we come back, we'll try to pick it up. If not,
we'll talk to our good friend. We've got Patrick O'Neal

(08:22):
calling up as well. Lots going on here. The craziness
continues in La the first high speed chase since the fires,
and man.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
It was a doozy.

Speaker 1 (08:33):
It was a doozy about twenty to twenty five maybe
thirty motorcycles running away from the highway patrol and we
followed them the entire thing. We'll try to pick it
up when we come back and or talk to our
good friend Patrick O'Neill with the La Kings and the
Los Angeles Angels.

Speaker 7 (08:47):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty Ladies and gentlemen.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
The voy a guy works with the Angels and the Kings.
I've been watching him for years and years and years.
I ran to him at Staple Center, which is now
I don't know Qualcomm, Orditto dot com or what.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
Is it now? Crows? What is it?

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Crypto dot com? Crypto dot com? I think I don't
think i'll ever get that straight dot com. Patricko'neil's with us, Patrick,
how are you, sir?

Speaker 8 (09:17):
Can we talk about the dirt bike? Do we have
to do? We have to talk about the house burning down.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
I have never seen anything like this.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
I've been covering chases for thirty years and before that
before radio, just watching them. I've never seen anything like that.
And you, by the way, it looks like the police
pulled back.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
Oh they did cops pull back? Okay, alright.

Speaker 8 (09:36):
I think they're going to get them at Crypto dot
Com arena and that's where they're gonna catch them.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
I gotta I gotta apologize to you. I got a
great story for you. So two years ago I said
to Sharon Bellio, I said, hey, I watch this guy
every night, this Patrick O'Neil. I love the Kings, A
big Kings fan. I live and die with the Kings.
My first game nineteen sixty nine, nineteen seventy forty three
years of nothing but crap and you know, Jay Wells,
Butch Goring the whole run into you know, Tiger Williams

(10:04):
coming down from Vancouver and watching, you know, a horrible
season after horrible season. In nineteen eighty eight, when Kirk
Gibson hits the home run at Dodger Stadium, I was
at the King game watching Philadelphia beat the hell out
of him, and so I said, hey, can you try
to get Patrick O'Neill on.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
She said, yeah, sure.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
She gets a phone number for Patrick O'Neill and she
texts Patrick O'Neill and said, hey, you want to come
on and we'd love to talk to you about the Kings.
He says, oh, I'm not really a big Kings fan.
I mean I watched this sport every once in a while,
but I'm not your guy. And she thought that was
kind of odd, and then she said, recently she texts
him again. Hey, what about you know, your family house.

(10:40):
I'm so sorry for it, And Patrick O'Neil said, I've
been living in New York for eight years. I'm not
really sure what you mean. She's been texting the Patrick
O'Neill who owns hot Rod Charlie, who ran in the
Kentucky Derby for two years.

Speaker 8 (10:54):
She must have thought, I've known Sharon from way back,
she said, God, Patrick O'Neill is turning this sure.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
So when I ran into you at at the stadium,
I'm like, Hey, I know you don't know anything about hockey,
and you're like.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Why I do the Kinks every night. I know every
player in the NHL.

Speaker 8 (11:12):
I don't know if I don't know every player in
the NHL. But it is my twentieth year and I
would never turn you down because I got my lucky
break in radio. A love radio, big fan of yours.
Oh man, I'm gonna have to venmo you after this
call because of the therapy session.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
But I'm a I am such a big Kings fan.
I you know, I love this team. I love when
they when they when they they took Brown's number and
retired it. I thought that was such a moving speech
and all the guys that came back from those teams
in twenty twelve and twenty fourteen, man I and then
Bob Miller getting you know, to know him. It's just

(11:49):
such a great organization and everybody is such a personable guy.
With the Kings, there's not a single snob or a
hole or or or or ego in the entire organization.

Speaker 8 (12:00):
It's a great organization. They've been so kind to me
and my dad's house burning down, reaching out. They're awesome.
When you went to that Philly game in eighty eight,
that was the year before Gretzky got there. So let's
just be clear. Once Gretzky got there in eighty eight
eighty nine, things turned around, and let's not blow past
like the miracle on Manchester. I was there and like
the well, okay, you said it was forty three years

(12:21):
of garbage. I just want to say there were some
good teams.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Okay, forty three years without a cup, forty three years
with we'll get it.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
We'll get them next year.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
But man, when they went I never imagine the Kings
would win the Stanley Cup, and then to win it
two out of three years was was unimaginable.

Speaker 8 (12:37):
The best, absolutely the best, so much fun and just
you know, but right now, I mean, they haven't won
a playoff series in fourteen, so let's hopefully this is
the year they can. They could pull together and get
a win tonight in Vancouver.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
I hope.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
So my buddies who are also Kings fans, we always
talk about the February slide, you know, like seven straight
road games and they lose like six seven, like, oh,
here we go.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
But this team looks great.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
You know, they're not number one on any of the charts,
but they still grind every single game. They got some
great goaltending. Now I love, you know, the way kemp
Ba is playing. I mean it's just a it's a
really solid team.

Speaker 8 (13:13):
Go Patar nineteenth year. You know, two penalty minutes. They
are number one in goals again, so that they've been stingy,
they get the power play going, the PK is better,
and you know, hopefully they get to get going here
get some points. I mean, the division specific's tough, Jim, right,
I mean, you got Vegas can't lose and Edmonton can.
We say we hate Edmonton, hate the Edmonton Oilers three

(13:36):
years so and you know we're going to face them again.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
You just know, one of the most pleasurable things. I
can't stand the Sharks. I just never got you know,
I always hated that team with everybody else in the division.
But to watch the Kings go down three, you know,
zero to three in the playoffs and come back and
beat them four straight was one of the most pleasurable
things I've ever ever had happened in my life.

Speaker 8 (13:57):
Yeah, that was incredible, and all those because in twelve
they went up three to zero in every series, and
then in fourteen they had to grind these seven game
series and then to beat Chicago in game seven. Yet
that was They're two different ways that they won the Cup.
You know. Fourteen was just remarkable, the four team ever
to come back from three to go up too oh
on Anaheim and then then fall back three two and

(14:20):
then come back and win at seven. And then the
Chicago series double overtime was insane. And then New York
series was a great series. I was on my way
to Malibu right to see the destruction of my father's house,
and I'm using my king's media pass right to get
down there. I got down there the day of and
it was tough to get through I mean I was
doing reports and stuff. The cop that stopped me at
at Tipanga, you know, he's thinking, what the heck does

(14:42):
this guy with an NHL pass you to do down here?
And then he goes, but I'm wearing my King's jacket,
and he goes, by the way, I hate your team.
Be a Duck fan. He goes, No, I'm a Sharks fan,
and I was thinking, well, thanks letting me through reverse.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Sweet, reverse sweet, so excellent. Now where But first of all,
can you stay with us? I want to talk to
you more about the Kings and the horrible fire that
has affected you.

Speaker 8 (15:07):
Sure you got to back a dirt fight, all right?

Speaker 1 (15:10):
Okay, all right? Once sid Patrick O'Neill is with us.
He's with the Los Angeles Kings. You see him on
Fox Sports all the time before games, after games and
between periods, and it's just a just a really fantastic
team to watch. We're live on KFI. If we do
pick up that chase, it looks like the cops sean
Washington Boulevard right now, all right, And there's no TVs

(15:32):
on it. We're watching all seven. I'm watching it online.
Can you watch it online?

Speaker 2 (15:35):
Okay?

Speaker 7 (15:35):
All right, you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demya
from KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
If you go on KTLA, you can see the whatever
left is of whatever is left of that chase. Looks
like the cops have backed off and not following those
motorcycles as closely, So we continue craziness. Nothing and nothing
ever surprises me in.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
La all right to go Neils with us.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
He's with the Angels, also with the Kings and does
a fantastic job. Hey, Patrick, so your your partner, Jared?
He used to play for the La Kings.

Speaker 2 (16:12):
Isn't that bright?

Speaker 8 (16:13):
Yeah? Yeah, Jared solely won. He won two Cups twelve
and fourteen. Yeah. Yeah, so he's awesome. Yeah, a great
working with Jared Stulf.

Speaker 3 (16:21):
He's the best.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
And I'm and he's married to a very popular woman
as well.

Speaker 8 (16:26):
Yeah, Aaron Andrews. Yeah, she does a great job. Hey,
I just got to say, you know, because I know
you moved quick, Tim. Sure you know my dad's house
burned down a maliber so marble to the day he died, right,
So it's reliving his grief all over again. But I
will be along with many others, the Angels and LAFC
tomorrow between ten and two at BMO Stadium right ten
to two. We're calling everybody that needs anything essential items,

(16:47):
food and clothing tomorrow DMO Stadium ten to two tomorrow,
going to be down there for some support. It's just
awful what's going on with what we've seen. Just gut
it for the Palisades and the maliber community.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Now, are you living at that house when this happened.

Speaker 8 (17:03):
Yes, partly taking care of my dad's dogs. You know
my dad's Ryan O'Neil. Sure, yeah, yeah, Yeah, he's been
down there for fifty plus years. He just died and
and he's taking care of his his dogs. And we
have so many incredible memories at that beach, at that house.
That's just gone forever. So life has changed. Life's going
to be different for me, but for so many down there,

(17:23):
it's just it really is. It's just been. It's been tough.
I've been I've been able to see it for seven
days and people are just going down there now seeing
it for the first time. It's it's incredible.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
And did did your is your family house? Was it
on the on the ocean?

Speaker 8 (17:39):
Yeah, on the ocean on LaCosta Beach. Fifty plus houses,
all in a row just past Duke's the first house,
and then every house on the beach, but the last
three right before Carbon Beach. Every house, every house in
a row is gone.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
I mean, you know, you've obviously he's had that house
for you know, a super long time. Just all the memories,
all the thanksgivings, Christmas is they're just it's.

Speaker 8 (18:01):
A lot of not a lot of Thanksgivings and Christmases.
I gotta tell you. But but your your.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
Dad did live in the Diamond Lane. I'll give him that, man, I.

Speaker 8 (18:10):
Have to say, I thank Christmas. Something happened to him
as a child. Santa Claus broke in and beat him.
I don't know, but uh, my dad's the best. My
dad's the best. I miss him so much. He gets
a lot of he gets a lot of craft. But
that that is unfortunate because people like to kind of
feed on that. But he was my hero, and uh,
you know, they like to kind of stomp on him.
He's not even here to defend himself anymore. But but

(18:31):
I do my best. It doesn't really I don't get
a lot of traction. But but he was an awesome man.
He was my hero, my biggest fan, and he's gone
now and the house is now gone. But we're not alone.
So many people are suffering. It's just awful, man, it's
awful down there. So we're just trying to do everything
we can help.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
When when you do, when you did go to see it,
I imagine you also saw, you know, five homes burned,
one home nothing, Six homes burned, one home nothing.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
There's no rhyme or reason for that. It's it's really odd.

Speaker 8 (18:58):
Well not on our beach. Every house burned. But I mean,
I do know that they were they were protecting Dukes
right because they were using that as a triage center.
So they're fighting off some fires. And then it bounced
and the winds fifty miles an hour, and for whatever reason,
it hit the first house. Alacosta burned every single house
except the last three fifty plus. But also, you know,
six hundred houses in Malibu are gone, right, but there's

(19:20):
five thousand in the houses. The Palisades will never be
the same, at least not in my lifetime. It's horrible,
but we got to somehow fight and stick together, and
I mean to try to bring you down.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
Listen, I think a lot of people are in this
same position, you know, in Altadena and you know in
all in the valley in uh, you know our parts
of Arcadia, parts of Pasadena as well the Palisades.

Speaker 2 (19:40):
As you mentioned, what is what? What is your what
have you done?

Speaker 4 (19:43):
Like?

Speaker 2 (19:43):
What is your first step?

Speaker 1 (19:44):
I mean you just take a deep, deep breath and
and and do you go to and do you call insurance?

Speaker 8 (19:49):
You go FEMA, yeah, not FEMA, no, but not for us.
But you know, just you know, but we're just going
to insurance, you know, and hope to you know, I
don't know anything about rebuilding. I don't see how it's
possible to coastal commission and uh, they're tough, you know
what what yeah, so what what are they going to do?
It's not going to be the same. And I don't
I couldn't afford it. You know, when when my dad passed,

(20:11):
they changed property tax laws. It's not you know, it
wasn't like left to me anyway. It's still in the state.
But I was just fighting his family home. You know,
you just have a lot of memories and I was
trying to see if we can I just want most
importantly we got his dogs that loved him cared for him,
and I got the two dogs out of their Mozart
and rave and they're being fostered. People are wonderful at
times like this, and I missed those dogs and missed

(20:32):
that life really sad. But it's just going to go
down there and clean up. You know, I'm I am worried.
Nobody's touching this story, Tim, But what's going to happen
to the you know, the people are suffering, but all
that craft's just going to get washed out in the
ocean and of course from the rains, and but it's
everything on the beach. It's just it's just going to
get washed down.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
And I don't know if you saw this story, but
for some strange reason after a fire like this that
one of the dangers is landslides.

Speaker 8 (20:58):
Oh right, it's got to be mudslides. Mud slides are
going to be horrible. It's going to be horrible. Then
who knows if your house gets destroyed by a mudslide,
is that covered by fire and struss?

Speaker 2 (21:09):
I don't know, I don't know. I don't know.

Speaker 8 (21:11):
To wait.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
So, now your sister is Tatum O'Neil half sister.

Speaker 8 (21:15):
Yeah, we have different mothers. Okay, all right and the
only child with Lee Taylor Young, Tatum, Griffin, me, Patrick
younger brother Redman. We all grew up in that house,
and everybody's devastated. You know. It's it's it's it's hard
to the house that you grew up in nineteen seventy one.
My dad had that house, you know, so that's some
fifty seven since those four or three four just to

(21:36):
every favorite memories right right there.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
I'm sure people have been after you to write a
book forever. Have you thought about it?

Speaker 8 (21:44):
No? No, not one person. Here is the first time
I've ever ever heard. Oh my god, what a great idea.
Nobody don't have to hear my story. You know why?
Because I have positive things discussed for you. That doesn't
That doesn't sell books, right.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
And that's why the King's High hired you too. They
don't hire these negative a holes, you know, they don't.

Speaker 8 (22:04):
I don't know about I'm an optimistic kind of guy.
I do try to call it like I see it,
but I am positive. I'm like, let's get them, let's
get them next game.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
You know, I'm a really Patrick O'Neil's with us with
the Kings and the Angels as well. But I'm a
very superstitious guy. And I was at the Rangers game
when the when the Kings won the Stanley Cup. But
that went into overtime and and then I believe it
went into a second overtime, wasn't it. I think it
was a second time. Yeah, okay, during this Yeah, during

(22:34):
the second overtime, I knew if I was in the
bowl in the arena, the Kings would lose. So I
got a bag of peanuts and a coke and I
sat out in the lobby and watched it on TV.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
That's a true story.

Speaker 8 (22:47):
You shouldn't tell. You shouldn't tell that story watching them.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
But then again, I stole I stole my my friend's
press pass, and then I got down on the ice
when they presented the cup. And if you look at
some of the pictures, I'm in the background. And it's
the greatest It's the greatest thing that's ever happened to me. Seriously,
other than having a child and getting married all the
family stuff, the greatest thing that's ever happened to me
is to watch the La Kings win a Stanley Cup.

Speaker 8 (23:11):
Yeah. I've been married and I have two kids, and
the Stanley Cup is bigger to me. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. No,
you're you're right. That's a big team, right. People don't
People don't realize if you're a hockey fan, like in
the Kings of the Kings, like the true Diards, when
they won that Stanley Cup in twelve, you're crying like
and I got to say when when Adrian kempe just did.
They won a game in Winnipeg, right, and they did

(23:33):
the whole dedication to the fire that fox. He's crying
on Area's mentioning my name when they wanted. I started
to cry, like, come on, Pat pulled together. You know.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
The first King's Stanley Cup costs me. End up costing me,
I think thirty eight hundred dollars because every single game
I would bet against the Kings, knowing that I would
lose the bet, but they would win the game.

Speaker 8 (23:56):
Talk about hedging.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
I bought that Kings the Stanley Cup, and I don't
see my name anywhere on it.

Speaker 8 (24:01):
By the way, some bookies got your name on a
Stanley Cup though.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
So the Kings play tonight, I believe, or is it tonight?

Speaker 8 (24:11):
Yeah, they're in Vancouver. Yeah, they're in Vancouver tonight. Yeah,
so that's I mean, I think so they pulled me
off the road games.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
It sucks, I know. I can't stand that. I can't
stand that. But you're welcome to come in every single
night and anytime you want. Also, they're playing on Monday.
How about Monday you get we get a new president
in Donald Trump. We have the national football game, you know,
Notre Dame in Ohio State, and then the Kings play
Pittsburgh at home.

Speaker 8 (24:41):
Yeah. Wait, we have a new president. Yeah, no, I
want no, I can't wait for Monday. I'll be there, man.
I hope I see you, and I'm so happy that
we see you. That there's other Patrick O'Neil.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Yeah, that's right. Yeah, all the way.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
Although if the other Patrick O'Neil is running around the racetrack,
I'll probably run to him more than I do.

Speaker 8 (24:58):
You probably, but.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I really appreciate coming on. And when the King season's over,
you get a break, you get a breather.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
Please come in.

Speaker 8 (25:06):
I'm going right to Angels baseball. There's no breather, Okay,
there's no.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
I'm cleared up.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
The misunderstanding about you knowing nothing about.

Speaker 8 (25:14):
Hockey, Yes, yes, I hope. I don't know if I
proved it. I know something, but I'm the right, Patrick,
Thanks for having me, and let's praying for everybody out
there with these fires. And again to borrow BMO Stadium
tended to. I'll be there, all right.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
We'll keep promoting them. Thank you, all right, Thanks man,
all right, take care all right. Patrick O'Neill. That guy's great.

Speaker 8 (25:33):
Man.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
That's what a positive guy. You know, all this stuff
he's been through the way. He talks about his dad,
how great his dad was, in the relationship he had,
he still misses him and stuff.

Speaker 8 (25:43):
Ah.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Man, that's a great family. That's a great Now.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
That's a Hollywood family, the O'Neills with Tatum O'Neill, Patrick O'Neill,
the dad, Ryan O'Neil, his wife aar Fawcett. That's Hollywood.
That is the a list of families. That is some crew.
I feel bad that he'd lost his home and you
could tell that, you know that with the taxes going

(26:08):
up and the money to rebuild it, and I don't
know what he's going to do, but sweet man, sweet man,
I really appreciate him coming on.

Speaker 7 (26:15):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
The high speed chase for the cops. I don't know
if it still continues, Crows. You still watching it on KTLA.
They're still following these guys. It looks like they lost
them all right.

Speaker 9 (26:31):
They went under an overpass, looks like at the ten
in Vermont, and even KTLA says they never came back out.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
We don't know where they are. I didn't know this.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Chris, who we work with here at KFI, said that
motorcycle comps don't work at night. They don't ride their
motorcycles at night. Is that true, Yes, it is. I
don't know that motorcycle comps don't operate at night. Maybe
it's HP, maybe it's some I don't know LAPD. Here's
a story that has nothing to do with LA. A

(27:03):
crash caused a vehicle to go off the Arlington Memorial
Bridge in the Potomac River, DC fire and it said
that the crash caused a vehicle to go off the
Arlington Memorial Bridge into the river Potomac River there, a
spokesman told the DC News at least one vehicle went
over the bridge and was submerged in the water Between

(27:25):
d C and Virginia divers are called to the scene
to search for the vehicle and the driver. Is that
the same river the plane went into?

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Crows?

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Wasn't there a plane that skidded off the runway? Fourteenth? Oh,
fourteenth Bridge, Fourteenth Street Bridge? Oh, I say fourteenth Street Bridge.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
Were you there when that happened?

Speaker 4 (27:41):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (27:41):
Yeah, well I was in DC. Yeah, yeah, really.

Speaker 8 (27:43):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 9 (27:43):
I remember going outside in the snow when my dad
called me in and told me what happened, and we
were watching it as it was going on.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Oh is that right? Yeah, I remember I watched that live.

Speaker 9 (27:51):
There was a flight attendant that was out there in
the water and they tried to pull her up and
they couldn't and a guy had to jump off from
the edge of the edge of the water to go
in after to help pull her out.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Yeah, that was some It seemed like it went on
for real forever.

Speaker 1 (28:02):
You know, they're constantly pulling people out of the river.
Don't forget the BEMO Stadium, BMO BMO Stadium. Tomorrow, Patrick
O'Neil's gonna be their ten am to two pm collecting
all kinds of supplies for people who have been affected
by these fires. Bemo Stadium is right next to the coliseum.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
It's that soccer stadium.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
If you're not a big soccer fan, you've never heard
of Bemo Stadium. That's where it is, right off the
one ten and there's a seven to eleven there.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
You'll find it for Carls.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
You'll find it right off the one ten freeway off
of Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard. So get out there
tomorrow from ten am to two pm and bring some
supplies or if you need something, go to Bemo Stadium.
Bmoh Man, what a day with this chase going on?

(28:58):
Then Patrick O'Neill buzzing in. Is crash in Washington? Too
much going on? Lot going on? All right, everyone's talking
about the looting. Looting's going on, not just in the
burn zone, but people have been you know, shut out
with their electricity off for the last five, six, seven,
maybe ten days, and now at night you're afraid that

(29:22):
someone's going to come in and rob you.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
That's where we are now, like.

Speaker 8 (29:25):
Developing this morning, City and county officials arresting multiple people
due to criminal activity happening near the wildfire zones.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
For Thomas Joins US live in studio. It's more on this.
Still can't believe that people just have it in to
do stuff like this.

Speaker 10 (29:39):
The number of arrest here is also pretty shocking.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
These are right, that number is low. You can multiply
that number by ten. That's how much looting's going on
in La Pretty shocking.

Speaker 10 (29:50):
These are arrests are for charges of burglary, looting, vandalism,
and curfew violations, all of course in fire zones. It's
still going up again. Authority say that they've arrested ninety seven.

Speaker 2 (30:01):
People so far.

Speaker 1 (30:02):
Wow, ninety seven, just ninety seven arrested. How many people
are robbing? If ninety seven have been caught, you gotta
be real and moron to get caught looting. I mean,
you know what, they put the lights out, You can
sneak around, You can pretty much, you know, get into
any of these areas that don't have electricity. The cops

(30:22):
are spread pretty thin, and you got caught ninety seven
of them well as George and George Carlon calls them
life's most interesting guys.

Speaker 2 (30:32):
And they're out there.

Speaker 10 (30:33):
To alaty say they've arrested ninety seven people so far,
and let me break it down for you.

Speaker 8 (30:37):
A bit.

Speaker 10 (30:37):
Santa Monica Police Department, they say they've made forty rest.
Ellie County Sheriff's Deputies they are reporting thirty nine arrests
and the LAPD fourteen people now. The La County Sheriff's
Department says they've made two arrests related to illegal drone incidents.
Two more men in black jumpsuits were arrested near the
home of Vice President Kamala Harris for curfew violations. A
curfew continues to be in effect nightly for from six

(31:00):
pm to six am in the mandatory evacuation areas and
the Palisades and Eaten fire zones.

Speaker 1 (31:06):
Yeah, so if you work and you live in those areas,
you got to get home before six pm. And then
once you're in your house, you're in till six am.
And you do not sleep. Every time you hear anything,
you think somebody's coming in to get your stuff. Up
in those hills up in the Brentwood area parts of

(31:28):
Malibu that survived parts of Santa Monica, lots of looting
going on out there.

Speaker 10 (31:33):
Gang Only firefighters, utility workers, and law enforcement personnel are
allowed in those areas. Meantime, the La City Council has
approved twenty one relief measures in response to the devastating wildfires.
These include disaster assistance centers and housing support. A rent
freeze and eviction ban right now are under discussion. The
council has also approved price gouging protections. The council is

(31:56):
reviewing infrastructure issues, including water pressure failures.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
I don't know how this city survives.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
This city was already broke anyway where the City of
Los Angeles has never really managed its money very well,
and so they were trying to take money even out
of the fire department by twenty two to twenty three
million dollars or seventeen. It was seventeen, then's gone up
to I think twenty three million. So that's where they're
what they're doing in LA. They're looking to save money

(32:23):
everywhere they can because their deficit I think was one
hundred million dollars or more, and now they've they've gotten
hit with this. I don't know how the city of
LA survives without declaring bankruptcy.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
I don't know how they do it.

Speaker 10 (32:37):
A bond measure to fund fire station repairs and new
facilities is now in the works. City leaders are calling
for an independent report on the city's wildfire response. A councilwoman,
Tracy Park says the goal is to rebuild communities and
improve emergency response.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
There's so many.

Speaker 10 (32:54):
Ways people can be further victimized after being displaced from
their home. You know, you have to worry about people
coming and trying to break into your property. What's left
of it you have to worry about, you know, Shasty landlords.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
It's it's it's, wait, what kind of landlord?

Speaker 5 (33:07):
You know?

Speaker 2 (33:08):
Shisty landlord?

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Shisty landlords. You don't hear that much anymore, especially on news.
Almost sounds racist, almost almost.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
I don't know. I think i'd give her a break.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
Let's find out where, you know what, where she uses
that outside of news, if you can really, you know,
bang that out, you know, when you're.

Speaker 9 (33:29):
Restaurant bill, this looks a little shasty.

Speaker 2 (33:33):
That's that's a fuzzy one. That's a fuzzy one.

Speaker 8 (33:36):
Man.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
I don't know if that still goes down in parts
of society.

Speaker 10 (33:40):
You know, shisty landlords.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
It's it's really, did you hear somebody?

Speaker 8 (33:47):
Is that?

Speaker 2 (33:47):
What happened?

Speaker 4 (33:47):
You know?

Speaker 10 (33:48):
Shasty landlords? It's it's it's really discouraging. And one thing
I wanted to note is we're talking about those illegal drones.
You see a lot of viral videos and your immediate focus,
of course, is a look at the devastation.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
But then right, yeah, there's a drunk irish out there,
you know, and the white trash out there.

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Yeah, the shirsty lawyers thing dog were they a wild
wild West.

Speaker 1 (34:13):
We've gone back like one hundred years in La and
last ten days got almighty with the igh speed, the
motorcycles running away from the cops. H unbelievable. It's a wild,
wild part of this country right now. Just strange, strange,
strange strange. I don't know how we got here, but man,
it's different.

Speaker 2 (34:32):
It is different. We're live.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
We'll do another hour when we come back on KFI
