Tim Conway Jr. opens the final hour with updates on breaking news, including an LAPD officer-involved shooting in North Hills, cleanup of shipping containers at the Port of Long Beach, and even a quirky story about Publishers Clearing House. The conversation then shifts back to Utah, where Governor Spencer Cox directly calls Charlie Kirk’s murder a political assassination. Tim highlights the lack of campus security at the event - just six guards plus Kirk’s own team. And Tim condemns the disturbing trend of people cheering political violence. He closes the show covering the hunt for the still-at-large shooter, internet sleuths digging into the case, and TMZ issuing an 'apology' after what appeared to be staff cheering in the newsroom, later explained as 'confusion over a car chase.'

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio apps. There's any more
information coming in on Charlie Kirk, we will have that
for you. There's some other news going on here locally.
There is the police LAPD shot a man in North Hills.
Let's find out what happened in North Hills here with
(00:22):
this guy.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
This happened just before five point thirty here in the
area of Parthenia and the four or five Freeway. In fact,
the shooting happened right under the four or five freeway.
Police responded to reports of a man with a gun.
He was allegedly appointing that gun at passing motorists and
when police responded on scene, a police shooting occurred for
reasons that are still under investigation. That man was wounded,
(00:45):
but his condition is unknown at this time.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
No officers were hurt.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
For Parthenia is going to be shut down just under
the freeway. That's latest here for North Hill.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Another crazy day in Los Angeles. All right, let's get
to the port and find out what's going going on
with the container ship and all. Then the seventy five
or seventy one to seventy five containers that fell off
the ship yesterday and the latest on the clean up the.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Dramatic video showing the moment those containers crashed filling the
water off the coast of California.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
You'd seen the mess that coust Guard officials are now
responding to.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
The Port of Long Beach says more than sixty containers
fell off a docked ship named the Mississippi, which arrived
from China Tuesday morning, some crushing a barge that was
connected to the ship. A fireboat used water cannons to
keep the containers from drifting away, but some debris could
be seen floating in the water.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
As general cargo clothing, shoes, electronics, furniture, the stuff that
we move every day. Yeah, some of it was those
Delta slippers. You know when you fly Delta airlines. For
some reason, they still give you a slippers. I don't
know who's wearing, no, but those are still a hot
item and a pillow and a blanket. So the people
sitting up front they get taken care of pillow, blanket, slippers.
(02:10):
If you're in back, you're going to pay for everything,
including water.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
It looks to me like there might be like slippers
or shoes floating in the water here.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
Yeah, Delta Airlines slippers.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Some containers still on the ship teetering precariously.
Speaker 7 (02:26):
For several containers ringing on a crane.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Expert saying the accident is unusual for a cargo ship
at a port not on the high seas. The Port
of Long Beach is the second busiest port in the country,
handling three hundred billion dollars of cargo each year. After
the accident, the port's saying, in part, cargo operations have
been temporarily suspended at peer g as operations continue to
ensure the safety of dock workers and other port personnel.
(02:51):
No injuries were reported and the incident is now under investigation.
So far, it's unclear what caused the containers to tumble
off the ship.
Speaker 8 (02:59):
As cleanup gets underway.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
You have to gather them as quickly as possible, otherwise
you end up with having to literally fish them off
the bottom of the port, and that creates some problems.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Yeah, indeed, sir, step I mean you said this is
a major port there.
Speaker 9 (03:12):
Do we know at this point how that's going to
impact day to day operations as we go into this
busy holiday shopping season.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Yeah, so I mean some more good news here, right,
because this is such a massive port, and this incident
really only happened at one birth of one terminal, likely
won't have a huge impact of operations here. There are
plenty more terminals for those cargo ships to dock at,
and those experts are telling us this will all likely
be cleaned up within a matter of days.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
M I'm gonna stay on high alert here with the
timeline within a matter of days.
Speaker 6 (03:43):
Matter of days? Are you sticking with your seventy nine days, timmy?
I'm I'm sticking with Thanksgiving. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I think we're closer to Thanksgiving than we are a couple.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Of days for those cargo ships to dock at, and
those experts are telling us this will all likely be
cleaned up within a matter of days.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Ah, Okay, so far they haven't clean picked any of
them up, So I don't know what a matter of
days means. Like a matter of seventy nine days, I
think that's what's happening. Here's the reason why maybe you
should choose next time you played the lottery, if you
win the big prize, maybe you should take the lump sum,
(04:21):
because remember those Publishers clearing House. Remember a guy with
big fat check and balloons would show up at somebody's
home in Iowa, knock on the door, and they get
five thousand a week for life.
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Well that's over.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It looks like Publisher's clearing House is clearing their own house.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
For decades, Publisher's clearing House made dreams come true.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
Hi, people, it's true, It's really true.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
And in August of twenty twelve the prize patrol delivered.
John Wiley of southern Oregon figured he was set for life.
Speaker 10 (04:55):
You are, John Wiley, Yes, yeah, you're shaken.
Speaker 6 (04:58):
Just as it says here.
Speaker 10 (04:59):
You have won five thousand dollars a week forever.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Five thousand a week forever. What a what a score.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
The jackpot allowed John to retire and move closer to
his kids. He bought a house near Bellingham with enough
land for the four dogs and two goats bad back.
Earlier this year, John expected his Forever prize payment to arrive,
as it always did, two hundred and sixty thousand dollars
(05:28):
direct deposit.
Speaker 6 (05:29):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
But the money never came.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
Two hundred and sixty thousand.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Dollars, And in April, Publisher's clearinghouse filed for bankruptcy. You know,
I thought, why didn't they somebody at least give me
a heads up.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
Hey, we're going on a.
Speaker 8 (05:42):
Business you know something.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Yeah, the show like somebody just cut the cord.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
And yeah, he was making two hundred and sixty thousand
dollars a year for life and then he's out with.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
No annual prize payment. The sixty one year old is
scraping by. You were a lot on that income. It
was his lifeline and was supposed to be forever.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, he went to the whip too early. It's a
racing term. You got to wait till the home stretch
to hit to go to the whip. He went with
the whip on the back the backstretch. And now he's
burned his horse.
Speaker 8 (06:17):
Out, sold Majetski, sold betrailer.
Speaker 6 (06:19):
Oh, and he's got to go back to work.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
I think I had a little bit of money left over,
and that's what I'm living on right now. John's had
trouble finding work and the bills are piling up.
Speaker 10 (06:29):
You know, pretty sure I'm.
Speaker 8 (06:30):
Going to lose my home.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Oh my god. This should be the new clearing house
where they go and you know, watch the sheriff put
a lock on his door, and he's not alone.
Speaker 9 (06:41):
They'bruary twenty eight and the prize patrol is in Cottage Grove, Oregon.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
In twenty twenty one, Publisher's clearing House delivered an oversized
check to Tamar Veach and promised the prize winner five
thousand dollars a week for life.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
How's that going?
Speaker 11 (06:55):
You know?
Speaker 3 (06:56):
We were fine before, you know, but it definitely like
open a lot of doors for us, like fun stuff
to do with the kids. We were able to travel
when the prize payout unexpectedly didn't arrive tomorrow, and her husband, Matthew,
had to reshuffle the family budget. They have three kids
and a mortgage to pay for. What kind of position
is just put you folks in.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
We're not drowning, but.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
Yeah, it's real tight.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
The couple, both disabled Army veterans field Publisher's clearing House
strung them along with excuses and delays before the company
went bust.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
I never understood that Publisher's Clearinghouse Were they selling magazines?
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Is that what they were selling?
Speaker 11 (07:35):
Yes, my mother did this all the time. It was
really going to change our lives.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Oh.
Speaker 11 (07:40):
I wanted to win it so she had every.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
Magazine, Is that right?
Speaker 11 (07:45):
Yes, I think she still has them, like piled up somewhere.
Speaker 6 (07:49):
Oh, that's awesome.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
My brother used to give us all subscriptions for Christmas,
you know, me, Sports Illustrated, my dad, Time Magazine, my sister,
you know, homemaking or whatever. And we just saw the singleton.
We just you know, he'd buy one at the grocery
store and give it to you and say, hey, you
got fifty two more coming.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
It never showed up.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
It just gave the one a note saying, hey, you
got a year's supply of Sports Illustrated.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Hey, thanks, man, that's great. Nothing after that, nothing, man, nothing.
Speaker 10 (08:25):
And really it's cool because you do change me both lives.
And now you've messed it up.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Well, and it's worse.
Speaker 12 (08:31):
Rights, it's worse to say you'll get this thing and
your life has changed forever.
Speaker 10 (08:36):
Oh but sorry.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Bankruptcy Record show publisher's clearinghouse has at least ten unpaid
prize winners. Most are owed more than two million dollars.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
Wow, man, oh man, you have a.
Speaker 10 (08:49):
Really really bad situation. There's not enough to pay everyone.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
University of Oregon law professor Andrea Colesbierre says in bankruptcy proceedings,
the prize winners join the list of unsecured creditors.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
So long the likelihood of them getting paid zero is.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
What very slim, very slim, very slim to get the
clearing house money.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I'm not gonna say as slim as the odds of
they're actually winning the lottery.
Speaker 8 (09:16):
But yeah, there's there's not gonna be much left over.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
How did that work? Then, Heather you bought or Belly
you bought. If you bought five or six subscriptions, you
had a better chance of wearing the winning the clearinghouse?
Speaker 8 (09:28):
I think so?
Speaker 6 (09:29):
Is that it?
Speaker 11 (09:30):
I think so. I'll have to ask my mom. Did
I know that she had stickers and if there's magazine?
It was a whole thing operation she was running.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Did you ever torture by having somebody dress up in
a suit and tie with a big check and knock
next door?
Speaker 6 (09:45):
You know we missed it by one that would show up. Yes, yeah,
is that right?
Speaker 8 (09:50):
What a dream?
Speaker 11 (09:51):
She drove my dad crazy with all the magazines that
were coming in the mail, like another one.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Like a family circus.
Speaker 11 (09:59):
You I remember McCalls little Family Circuit.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
It's like a doctor's office. All the good, all the
good magazines.
Speaker 11 (10:10):
She had sweet intentions though, I bet yeah she did.
Speaker 6 (10:14):
Does she still get them? She still gets magazines? Magazines? Yeah,
a scam.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
It's like the Columbia you know, when you buy ten
records for a dollar and then you have to buy
two more in the future and you never buy the deuce.
Speaker 6 (10:29):
I don't want to break the news to her. Yeah,
it's over.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, well you should send somebody next door with a
suit and tie in a big check and go. You
missed it by one house. You cancel all these subscriptions.
It's over.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
What's your first name, Sheila? I'll call her? No, no, no,
not you, not you. Aren't you named after your mom
and dad?
Speaker 11 (10:48):
Yes, Sheila and Ronald first three letters of his name
and the first three letters of her name. So he said, raunchy, Oh,
she said sharing now runchie Sharon.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
So first three letters of her name, first three letters
of your dad's first name. Yes, Sharon, that's kind of
a cool name, right, yeah, yeah, and that all worked
out for you?
Speaker 6 (11:14):
Thing gong with you? Or okay?
Speaker 13 (11:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (11:17):
Good? Sure?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
All right.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
My new catchphrase not catching that's not really happening. All right,
welcome back. I'm going to play that audio for you
again of the Governor of Utah. It's a great, great
speech to you know, to try to tell everybody, let's stop.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Enough is enough.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Charlie Cook assassinated today. It's even hard to say that.
I'm looking at a picture I'm on TV right now
in channel seven, and I can't believe he's gone. That
guy had so much to live for, so much life,
so bright, smart and just funny guy, great father, great husband,
great business owner. And because somebody didn't like what he said,
(12:00):
he's dead.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
He's dead.
Speaker 13 (12:03):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Let's listen in again to the governor of the state
of Utah, Governor Cox, and his speech that he gave
about Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
It really was terrific.
Speaker 14 (12:21):
Ladies and gentlemen, Thank you for joining us on this
dark and tragic occasion. I want to thank our law
enforcement officers who are leading this investigation, starting with Chief
Long and his response here with the UVU Police Department.
We're grateful for your leadership and your team. And again
(12:44):
to the speakers that you've just heard from who are
co leading this investigation. I also want to recognize Sheriff
Mike Smith, who has been an invaluable partner as this
investigation moves forward. I've been in touch with with President Trump,
with FBI Director Cash Cattel. We are completely aligned with
(13:06):
our state and federal partners as we work through this case. Now,
this is a dark day for our state. It's a
tragic day for our nation. And I want to be
very clear that this is a political assassination.
Speaker 10 (13:28):
We are.
Speaker 14 (13:31):
Celebrating two hundred and fifty years of the founding of
this great nation, that founding document, the Declaration of Independence,
that this great experiment on which we embark together two
hundred and fifty years ago, that we are endowed by
our creator.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
With certain unalienable rights.
Speaker 14 (13:50):
The first one of those is life, and today a
life was taken. Charlie Kirk was first and foremost a
husband and a dad to young children.
Speaker 8 (14:15):
He was also.
Speaker 14 (14:18):
Very much politically involved, and that's why he was here
on campus. Charlie believed in the power of free speech
and debate to shape ideas and to persuade people. Historically,
our university campuses.
Speaker 10 (14:38):
In this nation and here in the state of Utah.
Speaker 14 (14:41):
Have been the place where truth and ideas are formulated
and debated, and that's.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
What he does.
Speaker 14 (14:49):
He comes on college campuses and he debates as foundational
to the formation of our country, to our most basic constitute,
futional rights. And when someone takes the life of a
person because of their ideas or their ideals, then that
(15:12):
very constitutional foundation is threatened. Now we have a person
of interest in custody. The investigation is ongoing, but I
want to make it crystal clear right now to whoever
did this, we will find you, We will try you,
(15:35):
and we will hold you accountable to the furthest extent
of the law. And I just want to remind people
that we still have the death penalty here in the
state of Utah.
Speaker 6 (15:55):
Our nation is broken.
Speaker 8 (15:58):
We've had.
Speaker 14 (16:01):
Political assassinations recently in Minnesota. We had an attempted assassination
on the governor of Pennsylvania, and we had an attempted
assassination on a presidential candidate and former president of the
United States and now current President of the United States.
(16:26):
Nothing I say can unit us as a country. Nothing
I can say right now can fix what is broken.
Nothing I can say can bring back Charlie Kirk. Our
hearts are broken. We mourn with his wife, his children,
his family, his friends.
Speaker 8 (16:46):
We mourn as a nation.
Speaker 14 (16:50):
If anyone, in the sound of my voice celebrated even
a little bit at the news of this shooting, I
would beg you to look in the mirror and to
see if you can find a better angel in there somewhere.
(17:10):
I don't care what his politics are. I care that
he was an American. We desperately need our country. We
desperately need leaders in our country. But more than the leaders,
we just need every single person in this country to
(17:33):
think about where we are and where we want to be,
to ask ourselves, it is this what two hundred and
fifty years.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
Has wrought on us. I pray that that's not the case.
Speaker 14 (17:49):
I pray that those who hated what Charlie Cook stood
for will put down their social media and their pay
and pray for his family, and that all of us,
all of us will try to find a way to
(18:11):
stop painting our fellow Americans. We that we're happy to
take a few questions.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Very very well, said Spencer Cox, the governor of the
state of Utah.
Speaker 6 (18:22):
We'll come back.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
We'll have some reaction of some of the students that
were there earlier today when Charlie Kirk was shot.
Speaker 6 (18:29):
And killed assassinated today in Utah.
Speaker 13 (18:32):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demaya from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 6 (18:37):
Here are some more.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
People that were at the university, the Utah Valley University
UVU when Charlie Kirk was murdered today. Here's one young
lady and then a young gentleman who were there and
were eyewitnesses to what happened.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Just gruesome as hell.
Speaker 7 (19:02):
First of all, were you in attendance and how far
were you from the speaker?
Speaker 15 (19:06):
Yes?
Speaker 8 (19:06):
I was in attendance today.
Speaker 15 (19:07):
I was probably ten to fifteen feet away from Charlie Kirk,
so pretty close to him.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Yeah, what did you see?
Speaker 15 (19:16):
I'm sure you've already described it. I don't know if
I want to describe it again. But it was pretty
pretty traumatizing, pretty terrible what happened. Just an overall sad situation.
Speaker 7 (19:26):
And you were telling us that did it appear like
there was a lot of security there or not much? No?
Speaker 15 (19:31):
I mean we registered for tickets, but they weren't even
looking for tickets.
Speaker 8 (19:34):
Anyone could just walk in.
Speaker 15 (19:36):
It was that probably the worst place in campus because
there's so many areas where anyone can just walk in.
So yeah, I would say the security level, I would
say UVU kind.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
Of felt him in a way.
Speaker 7 (19:47):
Well, you followed Charlie for some time now, right, so
you see like when Turning Point USA goes to different campuses,
like how like contentious it could be?
Speaker 15 (19:55):
Right?
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Was it surprising that there wasn't more checks and balances
entering the camp I.
Speaker 8 (20:00):
Think it was super surprising.
Speaker 15 (20:01):
Yes, I think for sure in an event like this
where there's debate and charity, sometimes he likes to provoke,
they should have a lot more security just because everyone's welcome.
Speaker 7 (20:13):
So tell me a little bit about the aftermath after
this gunshot went off? What happened afterwards?
Speaker 15 (20:20):
So I was with one of my one of my
good friends, and as soon as the gun went off,
we both hit the floor, started praying. Everyone was screaming,
and then yeah, we got up and we just started
running and we made it out, made it to our apartment.
Speaker 7 (20:35):
So yeah, you're you're right around this area. Did you
see any students kind of like get injured or does
they everyone was trying to escape.
Speaker 15 (20:41):
No, but I did see a select group of students
who stood up and shared after after the fact, which
was really sad to see you're kidding that.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
No, well, thank you for what My God? How about that?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Imagine that paying for your kid to go to school
at UVU and anybody somebody gets shot and it some
person gets shot and your daughter or your son stands
up in cheers. That would be a wrap on me
paying for school and maybe for him or her coming
back home too, because I will have considered myself a
(21:18):
tremendous failure if my daughter was cheering somebody's death like that,
no matter what their political background is. If my daughter
was cheering a Democrat's death or a Republican's death, that
I would consider myself a tremendous, tremendous failure one hundred percent.
All right, here's another student that was there when the
(21:40):
shooting happened.
Speaker 9 (21:41):
Because I know, we have an interview with a witness
who was there over the internet right now. Her name
is Aubrey, a student at Utah Valley University.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
I understand.
Speaker 9 (21:50):
Aubrey, if you can hear us, tell us where you were.
Were you inside the auditorium at the time of the shooting.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Yes, I was. I was gathered around with everyone watching him.
Speaker 10 (22:03):
Have conversations with people.
Speaker 9 (22:05):
Well, tell me how things played out from your perspective
and where you were seated in relation to the stage
and where Charlie Kirk was speaking.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
So I was probably about thirty or forty feet away
from him. There's tears in the amphitheater and I was
on the third tier and he was having a discussion
about transgender people and school shootings, and he was commenting
about mass shootings and he was shot in the neck.
Speaker 9 (22:37):
Was he was in the process of talking about mass shootings.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
When they's a bullet?
Speaker 8 (22:42):
Gender? And yes, what did.
Speaker 9 (22:44):
That sound like? When when the shot was fired? And
could you tell where it came from?
Speaker 5 (22:50):
It came from behind me. I believe it came from
one of the upper buildings. It wasn't very loud. It
sounded almost like fireworks, So at first I didn't think
it was real, and a lot of the people around
me didn't realize what.
Speaker 6 (23:02):
Was going on either.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
You are are part of a generation that has grown
up with school shootings and the knowledge that something like
this could happen at any time. The fact that a
shooting happened where you were today, how do you how
do you begin to process that it must be so
raw for you right now.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Yeah, it really is. It was really really scary because
the shooting happened and everyone around me just fell on
the ground. And I've never experienced anything like that before.
I've never felt so unsafe and unsure.
Speaker 15 (23:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Yeah, And those kids that cheered that on, they deserve
a closed fist to the face and from their mom
or and or dad and to knock them down and
to straighten them out. God almighty, you imagine that raising
a child that cheered somebody's innocent death like that. What
(23:57):
failures as parents? One failures not so much the kid.
It's the parents that failed that kid. And the parents
deserve an open handed slap to knock them down a
little bit too. What happened to this country?
Speaker 6 (24:12):
What happened?
Speaker 1 (24:13):
We have a college student cheering somebody's assassination.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
It's unreal. It's almost like a twilight zone.
Speaker 13 (24:22):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Forty TMZ is going to have some explaining to do,
and maybe they're already explaining it away. But while they
were reporting live on Charlie Kirk getting shot, there were
girls in the background laughing and cheering and TMZ's going
to have to explain what happened there. That's a wild
(24:48):
reaction TMZ. Oh boy, all right, well, you know you
live by you know, you higher a holes and then
a holes get you in the end, and that may
be what's going on at TMZ. People laughing in the
background while they're reporting that Charlie Kirk has been assassinated.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
Man, oh man, what happened over there at TMZ?
Speaker 1 (25:15):
If that's the if that is indeed the story, that's
what I'm reading online the people is that what you
saw belly on there?
Speaker 6 (25:23):
She is okay, this is let me see if I
can pull this up here.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
This is uh TMZ the staff cheering that that Charlie
Kirk got assassinated?
Speaker 6 (25:36):
Is that right? What's going on over there?
Speaker 12 (25:40):
Janet, go go go to.
Speaker 6 (25:47):
That's that's their reaction.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Some of the girls, some of the young ladies the
work at TMZ when they're trying to put together the
story of of Charlie Kirk getting assassinated, and in the
background you can hear cheering and laughing.
Speaker 11 (26:01):
Well, I'm pulling the audio of Harvey Leven. Leven it's
in there actually apologizing.
Speaker 12 (26:06):
Yes, Janet goat, go go to, have somebody look at
the fox. Trump just posted that Charlie Kirk is dead.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
All right, So this is you get Trump on the second,
all right.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
And the reaction at the young ladies at TMZ, goat,
go go to.
Speaker 6 (26:40):
I don't know what's going on over there.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Interesting and I guess TMZ is apologizing for it. Let's
see if they try to B S s L.
Speaker 16 (26:51):
We were live streaming all day during this this tragedy.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah, we heard the live streaming go to, yeah, go
to those gals, ask what they're laughing at.
Speaker 16 (27:11):
We were live streaming all day during this tragedy. When
something happened in our office as we were reporting the
assassination of Charlie Kirk, there were some people in the
back room away from newsdesk here who were watching a
(27:32):
car chase and they were laughing. They were clapping, and
you could hear it out here.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
And I don't believe that. I don't believe that.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
I don't know the last time, I mean, Kelly, we've
watched hundreds of chases here at KFI. I remember last
time we cheered and laughed at a police chase.
Speaker 11 (27:56):
And I've reposted video of that car Chase. Oh it
was it a cheer worthy or were you gofawing at it?
Was it a big laugh? I did not have a
big this one. But you could see for yourself on
Conway's show on.
Speaker 16 (28:13):
X okay and they were laughing, they were clapping and
you could hear it out here. And we want to
make a couple of things clear. One is that I
know these people and they were not laughing. They were
(28:33):
not reacting that way about Charlie Kirk's assassination.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Let's go back and listen to it again. Goat sounds
like they were.
Speaker 10 (28:48):
They were not. They would not work here if they did.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
And that being said, oh please please, They've got to
be you know, you you've got to be honest with
the audience. They hire people based on their you know,
on their personality flaws. Over at TMZ. They hire people
like that, who are you know, crippled personality wise, who
(29:12):
have our soul lists over there at TMZ. And you know,
that's that's how you get hired over there. You've you've
been uh improperly raised and you don't have a soul.
That's how that Those are the first two questions they
asked you, you know when you apply for a job
at TMZ. Have you lost your soul? Yes, yes I have. Okay,
(29:34):
well come on in. We're looking for you.
Speaker 10 (29:36):
They were not. They would not work here if they did.
Speaker 16 (29:39):
And that being said, we acknowledged that it was horrible timing.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah, it was really really bad timing. Yeah, they're reporting
on Charlie Kirk being assassinated, and this is evidently the
reaction of the women in the background go.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Go to wow, wow, wow.
Speaker 10 (30:04):
Horrible timing.
Speaker 6 (30:05):
Yeah, you're right, horrible timing.
Speaker 10 (30:07):
Horrible timing, and for that we are sorry. We apologize.
We apologize getting to hear that.
Speaker 16 (30:14):
And I get why if you're watching the stream, you
may have felt that that's what the laughter was about.
We assure you it was not about that. But it
was horrible timing.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
And is Harvey Levin saying that that would have been
the first time somebody was laughing at an assassination or
somebody dying?
Speaker 6 (30:31):
Is that what he's saying.
Speaker 16 (30:32):
By the way, I get it too, and he gets
it because we listened as we were talking.
Speaker 10 (30:37):
You can go back and look on the stream.
Speaker 16 (30:39):
I actually walked off camera to go back and find
out what the hell was going on, because it was
inappropriate for the laughter at that time, But no one
was laughing about the Charlie Kirk tragedy.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I don't believe that nobody at TMZ was laughing when
when Charlie Kirk got assassinated.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
I do not believe that.
Speaker 10 (31:01):
No one was laughing about the Charlie curt tragedy.
Speaker 6 (31:05):
Okay, well, let's play it again. Then sounds like they were.
Speaker 10 (31:15):
No one was laughing about the Charlie Curk tragedy.
Speaker 16 (31:19):
Nevertheless, we apologize for the way it sounded.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
All right, Well, then why are you apologizing, you know,
if that wasn't the case, why I apologize? Oh they're
soulless over there at TMZ, just soulless, all right. Mo
Kelly is up next right here on KFI AM six
forty Conway Show on demand on the iHeart Radio app.
Now you can always hear us live on KFI AM
(31:43):
six forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and
anytime on demand on the iHeart Radio app.
It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to the Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio apps. There's any more
information coming in on Charlie Kirk, we will have that
for you. There's some other news going on here locally.
There is the police LAPD shot a man in North Hills.
Let's find out what happened in North Hills here with
(00:22):
this guy.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
This happened just before five point thirty here in the
area of Parthenia and the four or five Freeway. In fact,
the shooting happened right under the four or five freeway.
Police responded to reports of a man with a gun.
He was allegedly appointing that gun at passing motorists and
when police responded on scene, a police shooting occurred for
reasons that are still under investigation. That man was wounded,
(00:45):
but his condition is unknown at this time.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
No officers were hurt.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
For Parthenia is going to be shut down just under
the freeway. That's latest here for North Hill.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Another crazy day in Los Angeles. All right, let's get
to the port and find out what's going going on
with the container ship and all. Then the seventy five
or seventy one to seventy five containers that fell off
the ship yesterday and the latest on the clean up the.
Speaker 4 (01:16):
Dramatic video showing the moment those containers crashed filling the
water off the coast of California.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
You'd seen the mess that coust Guard officials are now
responding to.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
The Port of Long Beach says more than sixty containers
fell off a docked ship named the Mississippi, which arrived
from China Tuesday morning, some crushing a barge that was
connected to the ship. A fireboat used water cannons to
keep the containers from drifting away, but some debris could
be seen floating in the water.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
As general cargo clothing, shoes, electronics, furniture, the stuff that
we move every day. Yeah, some of it was those
Delta slippers. You know when you fly Delta airlines. For
some reason, they still give you a slippers. I don't
know who's wearing, no, but those are still a hot
item and a pillow and a blanket. So the people
sitting up front they get taken care of pillow, blanket, slippers.
(02:10):
If you're in back, you're going to pay for everything,
including water.
Speaker 5 (02:14):
It looks to me like there might be like slippers
or shoes floating in the water here.
Speaker 6 (02:19):
Yeah, Delta Airlines slippers.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Some containers still on the ship teetering precariously.
Speaker 7 (02:26):
For several containers ringing on a crane.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Expert saying the accident is unusual for a cargo ship
at a port not on the high seas. The Port
of Long Beach is the second busiest port in the country,
handling three hundred billion dollars of cargo each year. After
the accident, the port's saying, in part, cargo operations have
been temporarily suspended at peer g as operations continue to
ensure the safety of dock workers and other port personnel.
(02:51):
No injuries were reported and the incident is now under investigation.
So far, it's unclear what caused the containers to tumble
off the ship.
Speaker 8 (02:59):
As cleanup gets underway.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
You have to gather them as quickly as possible, otherwise
you end up with having to literally fish them off
the bottom of the port, and that creates some problems.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Yeah, indeed, sir, step I mean you said this is
a major port there.
Speaker 9 (03:12):
Do we know at this point how that's going to
impact day to day operations as we go into this
busy holiday shopping season.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Yeah, so I mean some more good news here, right,
because this is such a massive port, and this incident
really only happened at one birth of one terminal, likely
won't have a huge impact of operations here. There are
plenty more terminals for those cargo ships to dock at,
and those experts are telling us this will all likely
be cleaned up within a matter of days.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
M I'm gonna stay on high alert here with the
timeline within a matter of days.
Speaker 6 (03:43):
Matter of days? Are you sticking with your seventy nine days, timmy?
I'm I'm sticking with Thanksgiving. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I think we're closer to Thanksgiving than we are a couple.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
Of days for those cargo ships to dock at, and
those experts are telling us this will all likely be
cleaned up within a matter of days.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Ah, Okay, so far they haven't clean picked any of
them up, So I don't know what a matter of
days means. Like a matter of seventy nine days, I
think that's what's happening. Here's the reason why maybe you
should choose next time you played the lottery, if you
win the big prize, maybe you should take the lump sum,
(04:21):
because remember those Publishers clearing House. Remember a guy with
big fat check and balloons would show up at somebody's
home in Iowa, knock on the door, and they get
five thousand a week for life.
Speaker 6 (04:34):
Well that's over.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It looks like Publisher's clearing House is clearing their own house.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
For decades, Publisher's clearing House made dreams come true.
Speaker 6 (04:45):
Hi, people, it's true, It's really true.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
And in August of twenty twelve the prize patrol delivered.
John Wiley of southern Oregon figured he was set for life.
Speaker 10 (04:55):
You are, John Wiley, Yes, yeah, you're shaken.
Speaker 6 (04:58):
Just as it says here.
Speaker 10 (04:59):
You have won five thousand dollars a week forever.
Speaker 6 (05:02):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Five thousand a week forever. What a what a score.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
The jackpot allowed John to retire and move closer to
his kids. He bought a house near Bellingham with enough
land for the four dogs and two goats bad back.
Earlier this year, John expected his Forever prize payment to arrive,
as it always did, two hundred and sixty thousand dollars
(05:28):
direct deposit.
Speaker 6 (05:29):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
But the money never came.
Speaker 6 (05:31):
Two hundred and sixty thousand.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Dollars, And in April, Publisher's clearinghouse filed for bankruptcy. You know,
I thought, why didn't they somebody at least give me
a heads up.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
Hey, we're going on a.
Speaker 8 (05:42):
Business you know something.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Yeah, the show like somebody just cut the cord.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
And yeah, he was making two hundred and sixty thousand
dollars a year for life and then he's out with.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
No annual prize payment. The sixty one year old is
scraping by. You were a lot on that income. It
was his lifeline and was supposed to be forever.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah, he went to the whip too early. It's a
racing term. You got to wait till the home stretch
to hit to go to the whip. He went with
the whip on the back the backstretch. And now he's
burned his horse.
Speaker 8 (06:17):
Out, sold Majetski, sold betrailer.
Speaker 6 (06:19):
Oh, and he's got to go back to work.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
I think I had a little bit of money left over,
and that's what I'm living on right now. John's had
trouble finding work and the bills are piling up.
Speaker 10 (06:29):
You know, pretty sure I'm.
Speaker 8 (06:30):
Going to lose my home.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Oh my god. This should be the new clearing house
where they go and you know, watch the sheriff put
a lock on his door, and he's not alone.
Speaker 9 (06:41):
They'bruary twenty eight and the prize patrol is in Cottage Grove, Oregon.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
In twenty twenty one, Publisher's clearing House delivered an oversized
check to Tamar Veach and promised the prize winner five
thousand dollars a week for life.
Speaker 6 (06:54):
How's that going?
Speaker 11 (06:55):
You know?
Speaker 3 (06:56):
We were fine before, you know, but it definitely like
open a lot of doors for us, like fun stuff
to do with the kids. We were able to travel
when the prize payout unexpectedly didn't arrive tomorrow, and her husband, Matthew,
had to reshuffle the family budget. They have three kids
and a mortgage to pay for. What kind of position
is just put you folks in.
Speaker 10 (07:17):
We're not drowning, but.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
Yeah, it's real tight.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
The couple, both disabled Army veterans field Publisher's clearing House
strung them along with excuses and delays before the company
went bust.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
I never understood that Publisher's Clearinghouse Were they selling magazines?
Speaker 6 (07:34):
Is that what they were selling?
Speaker 11 (07:35):
Yes, my mother did this all the time. It was
really going to change our lives.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Oh.
Speaker 11 (07:40):
I wanted to win it so she had every.
Speaker 6 (07:43):
Magazine, Is that right?
Speaker 11 (07:45):
Yes, I think she still has them, like piled up somewhere.
Speaker 6 (07:49):
Oh, that's awesome.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
My brother used to give us all subscriptions for Christmas,
you know, me, Sports Illustrated, my dad, Time Magazine, my sister,
you know, homemaking or whatever. And we just saw the singleton.
We just you know, he'd buy one at the grocery
store and give it to you and say, hey, you
got fifty two more coming.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
It never showed up.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
It just gave the one a note saying, hey, you
got a year's supply of Sports Illustrated.
Speaker 6 (08:21):
Hey, thanks, man, that's great. Nothing after that, nothing, man, nothing.
Speaker 10 (08:25):
And really it's cool because you do change me both lives.
And now you've messed it up.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Well, and it's worse.
Speaker 12 (08:31):
Rights, it's worse to say you'll get this thing and
your life has changed forever.
Speaker 10 (08:36):
Oh but sorry.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Bankruptcy Record show publisher's clearinghouse has at least ten unpaid
prize winners. Most are owed more than two million dollars.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
Wow, man, oh man, you have a.
Speaker 10 (08:49):
Really really bad situation. There's not enough to pay everyone.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
University of Oregon law professor Andrea Colesbierre says in bankruptcy proceedings,
the prize winners join the list of unsecured creditors.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
So long the likelihood of them getting paid zero is.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
What very slim, very slim, very slim to get the
clearing house money.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
I'm not gonna say as slim as the odds of
they're actually winning the lottery.
Speaker 8 (09:16):
But yeah, there's there's not gonna be much left over.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
How did that work? Then, Heather you bought or Belly
you bought. If you bought five or six subscriptions, you
had a better chance of wearing the winning the clearinghouse?
Speaker 8 (09:28):
I think so?
Speaker 6 (09:29):
Is that it?
Speaker 11 (09:30):
I think so. I'll have to ask my mom. Did
I know that she had stickers and if there's magazine?
It was a whole thing operation she was running.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Did you ever torture by having somebody dress up in
a suit and tie with a big check and knock
next door?
Speaker 6 (09:45):
You know we missed it by one that would show up. Yes, yeah,
is that right?
Speaker 8 (09:50):
What a dream?
Speaker 11 (09:51):
She drove my dad crazy with all the magazines that
were coming in the mail, like another one.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Like a family circus.
Speaker 11 (09:59):
You I remember McCalls little Family Circuit.
Speaker 6 (10:05):
It's like a doctor's office. All the good, all the
good magazines.
Speaker 11 (10:10):
She had sweet intentions though, I bet yeah she did.
Speaker 6 (10:14):
Does she still get them? She still gets magazines? Magazines? Yeah,
a scam.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
It's like the Columbia you know, when you buy ten
records for a dollar and then you have to buy
two more in the future and you never buy the deuce.
Speaker 6 (10:29):
I don't want to break the news to her. Yeah,
it's over.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, well you should send somebody next door with a
suit and tie in a big check and go. You
missed it by one house. You cancel all these subscriptions.
It's over.
Speaker 6 (10:42):
What's your first name, Sheila? I'll call her? No, no, no,
not you, not you. Aren't you named after your mom
and dad?
Speaker 11 (10:48):
Yes, Sheila and Ronald first three letters of his name
and the first three letters of her name. So he said, raunchy, Oh,
she said sharing now runchie Sharon.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
So first three letters of her name, first three letters
of your dad's first name. Yes, Sharon, that's kind of
a cool name, right, yeah, yeah, and that all worked
out for you?
Speaker 6 (11:14):
Thing gong with you? Or okay?
Speaker 13 (11:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (11:17):
Good? Sure?
Speaker 4 (11:18):
All right.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
My new catchphrase not catching that's not really happening. All right,
welcome back. I'm going to play that audio for you
again of the Governor of Utah. It's a great, great
speech to you know, to try to tell everybody, let's stop.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Enough is enough.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Charlie Cook assassinated today. It's even hard to say that.
I'm looking at a picture I'm on TV right now
in channel seven, and I can't believe he's gone. That
guy had so much to live for, so much life,
so bright, smart and just funny guy, great father, great husband,
great business owner. And because somebody didn't like what he said,
(12:00):
he's dead.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
He's dead.
Speaker 13 (12:03):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Let's listen in again to the governor of the state
of Utah, Governor Cox, and his speech that he gave
about Charlie Kirk.
Speaker 6 (12:18):
It really was terrific.
Speaker 14 (12:21):
Ladies and gentlemen, Thank you for joining us on this
dark and tragic occasion. I want to thank our law
enforcement officers who are leading this investigation, starting with Chief
Long and his response here with the UVU Police Department.
We're grateful for your leadership and your team. And again
(12:44):
to the speakers that you've just heard from who are
co leading this investigation. I also want to recognize Sheriff
Mike Smith, who has been an invaluable partner as this
investigation moves forward. I've been in touch with with President Trump,
with FBI Director Cash Cattel. We are completely aligned with
(13:06):
our state and federal partners as we work through this case. Now,
this is a dark day for our state. It's a
tragic day for our nation. And I want to be
very clear that this is a political assassination.
Speaker 10 (13:28):
We are.
Speaker 14 (13:31):
Celebrating two hundred and fifty years of the founding of
this great nation, that founding document, the Declaration of Independence,
that this great experiment on which we embark together two
hundred and fifty years ago, that we are endowed by
our creator.
Speaker 6 (13:49):
With certain unalienable rights.
Speaker 14 (13:50):
The first one of those is life, and today a
life was taken. Charlie Kirk was first and foremost a
husband and a dad to young children.
Speaker 8 (14:15):
He was also.
Speaker 14 (14:18):
Very much politically involved, and that's why he was here
on campus. Charlie believed in the power of free speech
and debate to shape ideas and to persuade people. Historically,
our university campuses.
Speaker 10 (14:38):
In this nation and here in the state of Utah.
Speaker 14 (14:41):
Have been the place where truth and ideas are formulated
and debated, and that's.
Speaker 6 (14:47):
What he does.
Speaker 14 (14:49):
He comes on college campuses and he debates as foundational
to the formation of our country, to our most basic constitute,
futional rights. And when someone takes the life of a
person because of their ideas or their ideals, then that
(15:12):
very constitutional foundation is threatened. Now we have a person
of interest in custody. The investigation is ongoing, but I
want to make it crystal clear right now to whoever
did this, we will find you, We will try you,
(15:35):
and we will hold you accountable to the furthest extent
of the law. And I just want to remind people
that we still have the death penalty here in the
state of Utah.
Speaker 6 (15:55):
Our nation is broken.
Speaker 8 (15:58):
We've had.
Speaker 14 (16:01):
Political assassinations recently in Minnesota. We had an attempted assassination
on the governor of Pennsylvania, and we had an attempted
assassination on a presidential candidate and former president of the
United States and now current President of the United States.
(16:26):
Nothing I say can unit us as a country. Nothing
I can say right now can fix what is broken.
Nothing I can say can bring back Charlie Kirk. Our
hearts are broken. We mourn with his wife, his children,
his family, his friends.
Speaker 8 (16:46):
We mourn as a nation.
Speaker 14 (16:50):
If anyone, in the sound of my voice celebrated even
a little bit at the news of this shooting, I
would beg you to look in the mirror and to
see if you can find a better angel in there somewhere.
(17:10):
I don't care what his politics are. I care that
he was an American. We desperately need our country. We
desperately need leaders in our country. But more than the leaders,
we just need every single person in this country to
(17:33):
think about where we are and where we want to be,
to ask ourselves, it is this what two hundred and
fifty years.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
Has wrought on us. I pray that that's not the case.
Speaker 14 (17:49):
I pray that those who hated what Charlie Cook stood
for will put down their social media and their pay
and pray for his family, and that all of us,
all of us will try to find a way to
(18:11):
stop painting our fellow Americans. We that we're happy to
take a few questions.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Very very well, said Spencer Cox, the governor of the
state of Utah.
Speaker 6 (18:22):
We'll come back.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
We'll have some reaction of some of the students that
were there earlier today when Charlie Kirk was shot.
Speaker 6 (18:29):
And killed assassinated today in Utah.
Speaker 13 (18:32):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demaya from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 6 (18:37):
Here are some more.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
People that were at the university, the Utah Valley University
UVU when Charlie Kirk was murdered today. Here's one young
lady and then a young gentleman who were there and
were eyewitnesses to what happened.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Just gruesome as hell.
Speaker 7 (19:02):
First of all, were you in attendance and how far
were you from the speaker?
Speaker 15 (19:06):
Yes?
Speaker 8 (19:06):
I was in attendance today.
Speaker 15 (19:07):
I was probably ten to fifteen feet away from Charlie Kirk,
so pretty close to him.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Yeah, what did you see?
Speaker 15 (19:16):
I'm sure you've already described it. I don't know if
I want to describe it again. But it was pretty
pretty traumatizing, pretty terrible what happened. Just an overall sad situation.
Speaker 7 (19:26):
And you were telling us that did it appear like
there was a lot of security there or not much? No?
Speaker 15 (19:31):
I mean we registered for tickets, but they weren't even
looking for tickets.
Speaker 8 (19:34):
Anyone could just walk in.
Speaker 15 (19:36):
It was that probably the worst place in campus because
there's so many areas where anyone can just walk in.
So yeah, I would say the security level, I would
say UVU kind.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
Of felt him in a way.
Speaker 7 (19:47):
Well, you followed Charlie for some time now, right, so
you see like when Turning Point USA goes to different campuses,
like how like contentious it could be?
Speaker 15 (19:55):
Right?
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Was it surprising that there wasn't more checks and balances
entering the camp I.
Speaker 8 (20:00):
Think it was super surprising.
Speaker 15 (20:01):
Yes, I think for sure in an event like this
where there's debate and charity, sometimes he likes to provoke,
they should have a lot more security just because everyone's welcome.
Speaker 7 (20:13):
So tell me a little bit about the aftermath after
this gunshot went off? What happened afterwards?
Speaker 15 (20:20):
So I was with one of my one of my
good friends, and as soon as the gun went off,
we both hit the floor, started praying. Everyone was screaming,
and then yeah, we got up and we just started
running and we made it out, made it to our apartment.
Speaker 7 (20:35):
So yeah, you're you're right around this area. Did you
see any students kind of like get injured or does
they everyone was trying to escape.
Speaker 15 (20:41):
No, but I did see a select group of students
who stood up and shared after after the fact, which
was really sad to see you're kidding that.
Speaker 6 (20:49):
No, well, thank you for what My God? How about that?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Imagine that paying for your kid to go to school
at UVU and anybody somebody gets shot and it some
person gets shot and your daughter or your son stands
up in cheers. That would be a wrap on me
paying for school and maybe for him or her coming
back home too, because I will have considered myself a
(21:18):
tremendous failure if my daughter was cheering somebody's death like that,
no matter what their political background is. If my daughter
was cheering a Democrat's death or a Republican's death, that
I would consider myself a tremendous, tremendous failure one hundred percent.
All right, here's another student that was there when the
(21:40):
shooting happened.
Speaker 9 (21:41):
Because I know, we have an interview with a witness
who was there over the internet right now. Her name
is Aubrey, a student at Utah Valley University.
Speaker 6 (21:50):
I understand.
Speaker 9 (21:50):
Aubrey, if you can hear us, tell us where you were.
Were you inside the auditorium at the time of the shooting.
Speaker 5 (21:58):
Yes, I was. I was gathered around with everyone watching him.
Speaker 10 (22:03):
Have conversations with people.
Speaker 9 (22:05):
Well, tell me how things played out from your perspective
and where you were seated in relation to the stage
and where Charlie Kirk was speaking.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
So I was probably about thirty or forty feet away
from him. There's tears in the amphitheater and I was
on the third tier and he was having a discussion
about transgender people and school shootings, and he was commenting
about mass shootings and he was shot in the neck.
Speaker 9 (22:37):
Was he was in the process of talking about mass shootings.
Speaker 6 (22:41):
When they's a bullet?
Speaker 8 (22:42):
Gender? And yes, what did.
Speaker 9 (22:44):
That sound like? When when the shot was fired? And
could you tell where it came from?
Speaker 5 (22:50):
It came from behind me. I believe it came from
one of the upper buildings. It wasn't very loud. It
sounded almost like fireworks, So at first I didn't think
it was real, and a lot of the people around
me didn't realize what.
Speaker 6 (23:02):
Was going on either.
Speaker 9 (23:03):
You are are part of a generation that has grown
up with school shootings and the knowledge that something like
this could happen at any time. The fact that a
shooting happened where you were today, how do you how
do you begin to process that it must be so
raw for you right now.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Yeah, it really is. It was really really scary because
the shooting happened and everyone around me just fell on
the ground. And I've never experienced anything like that before.
I've never felt so unsafe and unsure.
Speaker 15 (23:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Yeah, And those kids that cheered that on, they deserve
a closed fist to the face and from their mom
or and or dad and to knock them down and
to straighten them out. God almighty, you imagine that raising
a child that cheered somebody's innocent death like that. What
(23:57):
failures as parents? One failures not so much the kid.
It's the parents that failed that kid. And the parents
deserve an open handed slap to knock them down a
little bit too. What happened to this country?
Speaker 6 (24:12):
What happened?
Speaker 1 (24:13):
We have a college student cheering somebody's assassination.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
It's unreal. It's almost like a twilight zone.
Speaker 13 (24:22):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Forty TMZ is going to have some explaining to do,
and maybe they're already explaining it away. But while they
were reporting live on Charlie Kirk getting shot, there were
girls in the background laughing and cheering and TMZ's going
to have to explain what happened there. That's a wild
(24:48):
reaction TMZ. Oh boy, all right, well, you know you
live by you know, you higher a holes and then
a holes get you in the end, and that may
be what's going on at TMZ. People laughing in the
background while they're reporting that Charlie Kirk has been assassinated.
Speaker 6 (25:12):
Man, oh man, what happened over there at TMZ?
Speaker 1 (25:15):
If that's the if that is indeed the story, that's
what I'm reading online the people is that what you
saw belly on there?
Speaker 6 (25:23):
She is okay, this is let me see if I
can pull this up here.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
This is uh TMZ the staff cheering that that Charlie
Kirk got assassinated?
Speaker 6 (25:36):
Is that right? What's going on over there?
Speaker 12 (25:40):
Janet, go go go to.
Speaker 6 (25:47):
That's that's their reaction.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Some of the girls, some of the young ladies the
work at TMZ when they're trying to put together the
story of of Charlie Kirk getting assassinated, and in the
background you can hear cheering and laughing.
Speaker 11 (26:01):
Well, I'm pulling the audio of Harvey Leven. Leven it's
in there actually apologizing.
Speaker 12 (26:06):
Yes, Janet goat, go go to, have somebody look at
the fox. Trump just posted that Charlie Kirk is dead.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
All right, So this is you get Trump on the second,
all right.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
And the reaction at the young ladies at TMZ, goat,
go go to.
Speaker 6 (26:40):
I don't know what's going on over there.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Interesting and I guess TMZ is apologizing for it. Let's
see if they try to B S s L.
Speaker 16 (26:51):
We were live streaming all day during this this tragedy.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah, we heard the live streaming go to, yeah, go
to those gals, ask what they're laughing at.
Speaker 16 (27:11):
We were live streaming all day during this tragedy. When
something happened in our office as we were reporting the
assassination of Charlie Kirk, there were some people in the
back room away from newsdesk here who were watching a
(27:32):
car chase and they were laughing. They were clapping, and
you could hear it out here.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
And I don't believe that. I don't believe that.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
I don't know the last time, I mean, Kelly, we've
watched hundreds of chases here at KFI. I remember last
time we cheered and laughed at a police chase.
Speaker 11 (27:56):
And I've reposted video of that car Chase. Oh it
was it a cheer worthy or were you gofawing at it?
Was it a big laugh? I did not have a
big this one. But you could see for yourself on
Conway's show on.
Speaker 16 (28:13):
X okay and they were laughing, they were clapping and
you could hear it out here. And we want to
make a couple of things clear. One is that I
know these people and they were not laughing. They were
(28:33):
not reacting that way about Charlie Kirk's assassination.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Let's go back and listen to it again. Goat sounds
like they were.
Speaker 10 (28:48):
They were not. They would not work here if they did.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
And that being said, oh please please, They've got to
be you know, you you've got to be honest with
the audience. They hire people based on their you know,
on their personality flaws. Over at TMZ. They hire people
like that, who are you know, crippled personality wise, who
(29:12):
have our soul lists over there at TMZ. And you know,
that's that's how you get hired over there. You've you've
been uh improperly raised and you don't have a soul.
That's how that Those are the first two questions they
asked you, you know when you apply for a job
at TMZ. Have you lost your soul? Yes, yes I have. Okay,
(29:34):
well come on in. We're looking for you.
Speaker 10 (29:36):
They were not. They would not work here if they did.
Speaker 16 (29:39):
And that being said, we acknowledged that it was horrible timing.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah, it was really really bad timing. Yeah, they're reporting
on Charlie Kirk being assassinated, and this is evidently the
reaction of the women in the background go.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Go to wow, wow, wow.
Speaker 10 (30:04):
Horrible timing.
Speaker 6 (30:05):
Yeah, you're right, horrible timing.
Speaker 10 (30:07):
Horrible timing, and for that we are sorry. We apologize.
We apologize getting to hear that.
Speaker 16 (30:14):
And I get why if you're watching the stream, you
may have felt that that's what the laughter was about.
We assure you it was not about that. But it
was horrible timing.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
And is Harvey Levin saying that that would have been
the first time somebody was laughing at an assassination or
somebody dying?
Speaker 6 (30:31):
Is that what he's saying.
Speaker 16 (30:32):
By the way, I get it too, and he gets
it because we listened as we were talking.
Speaker 10 (30:37):
You can go back and look on the stream.
Speaker 16 (30:39):
I actually walked off camera to go back and find
out what the hell was going on, because it was
inappropriate for the laughter at that time, But no one
was laughing about the Charlie Kirk tragedy.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
I don't believe that nobody at TMZ was laughing when
when Charlie Kirk got assassinated.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
I do not believe that.
Speaker 10 (31:01):
No one was laughing about the Charlie curt tragedy.
Speaker 6 (31:05):
Okay, well, let's play it again. Then sounds like they were.
Speaker 10 (31:15):
No one was laughing about the Charlie Curk tragedy.
Speaker 16 (31:19):
Nevertheless, we apologize for the way it sounded.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
All right, Well, then why are you apologizing, you know,
if that wasn't the case, why I apologize? Oh they're
soulless over there at TMZ, just soulless, all right. Mo
