The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 2 (7.15)
Back in Boyle Heights, the nightmare continues after the massive cold-storage warehouse fire — 85 million pounds of rotting food is creating a vile stench, swarms of flies, rodents, a burst water main, and now oppressive humid summer heat on top of it all. They’ve only removed about 1.4 million pounds so far, and Timmy figures it’ll take years to clean up the mess while the EPA starts handing out fines.
In much lighter news, longtime KFI board operator and resident sexpert Sam Zia joins Timmy in studio to celebrate his big move to Spain after 25 years with the station — complete with a bag full of dildos and butt plugs (relax, he’s a sex therapist, it checks out!).
KTLA reporter Rachel Menitoff stayed ice-cold during a live shot when a giant flying cockroach landed on her head and crawled down her chest — true professional. Two corpse flowers are blooming at the Huntington Library, treating visitors to their signature rotting-flesh stench for 24–48 hours, and Grocery Outlet Bargain Market is expanding across Southern California.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's camp I am sixty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
At your ass, Timmy Wow, Timmy Wow.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
He's a little lamb with that. He's always having such
a lot of effort.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Lamb.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
He knows more than Angel smoked. You just smoked you?
How about that? All right, let's go to Boyle Heights
because the only thing that could make that fire and
the food rotting and the rats and the smell and
(00:49):
the flies worse is heat. And that's what we got.
So we're adding another element to the Boil Heights fire.
Remember the fire that was out hours after it happened
or six hours after it happened, and then reignited in
bird freight days and I think it was eighty five
million or one hundred and eighty five, And I remember,
(01:09):
I think it's one hundred and eighty five million pounds
of food or it was a five. It was eighty
five eighty five million pounds of food rotting. And there's
crab in there, beef, there's a chicken, walrus, zebra, a
lot of odd tastes in la for food, and they're
all sitting in there rotting. And now you add ninety
(01:32):
five degrees to that cleanup and it's a living hell.
The guys that are cleaning that up have got to
be compensated for that, because they're risking their lives. You know,
you can't clean a mess like that up and live
in that smell for a month without it affecting your
entire being. I imagine you have to wash your hair
(01:56):
nine hundred times when you get home. I'm sure there's hazmats,
doots and fans and you know, for breeze, but nothing's
going to wipe out that kind of food. Let's fine,
let's get an update on how it's going in Boil Heights.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
Well, this weather is making the cleanup in that bird
warehouse and Boil Heights even tougher.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
There's millions of pounds of rotting food that is attracting
flies and rats.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Jennifer McGrath, Oh, the short stick. You know in the morning,
when they tell Jennifer McGrath the short stick, because in
the morning, all the reporters get their assignment for the day,
and nobody wants to draw that one, you know, even
though you're gonna get good TV time, and that's how
you advance in the News. Nobody wants to sit down
there all day in that mess, And so Jennifer McGraw
(02:44):
they said, hey, Jennifer, you're going too, and she's thinking, oh,
TV opening of a movie, you know, new restaurant Beverly Hills,
it's opening maybe the fire out in Santa Clarita. Nope,
you're going to Boil Heights. Ah Christ and Katla's Jennifer
McGraw is live in Boyle Heights. Jennifer, good morning, good morning. Yeah,
(03:07):
these guys are sitting in an air conditioned, beautiful, beautiful
studio over there, Katla, and they throw it to Jennifer McGraw,
who's in hell Boyle Heights. Jennifer, good morning, Eric and
Meghan good morning.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
This extreme heat is causing even more issues for those
here in Boyle Heights. The smell is absolutely disgusting. You
can smell it at least a mile away when you
get off the freeway. So you can imagine what it's
like for these workers who are cleaning it up and
the community who's having to live here now. Senator Alex
Padilla toured the site for I.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Bet he didn't stay long, Alex Padella. I bet he
did a drive by on that sucker.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Senator Alex Padilla toured the site for himself. He wanted
to see firsthand what is happening as the massive cleanup
operation is underway. Padilla says he wanted to see the
progress firsthand and make sure the EPA involved in the
demolition and environmental response crews have already removed about one
point four million pounds of rotting food and other waste, but.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Official safe, one point four million pounds of the eighty
five million pounds that are there. They were only supposed
to have forty five days to clean this up. Let's
do the math, shall we. If after two weeks they've
removed let's give them the benefit of the doubt, two
million pounds and now there's eighty three million pounds left
(04:26):
two weeks eighty three. That's forty one more weeks. That's
almost another year, just about nine eleven weeks short of
another year to clean this up.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
One point four million pounds of rotting food and other waste, but.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Official safe, there's eighty three and a half million pounds left.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
More than three million pounds of food waste still needs
to be hauled away.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Okay, Well, if that's true, then somebody lied to us.
If now they're saying only four million pounds of food
has been has turned, as my grandma used to say,
then somebody lied about the eighty five million pounds. So
what is it? Is it eighty five million or is
it four and a half million?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
Just because of fire's out doesn't mean that the situation is. Oh,
is it going to take a bit of time to
continue to clean up. It's going to take a little
bit of time for this community to fully recover, and
so we still need all hands on deck, all the
resources from the city, the fire Department, the AQMD.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yeah, that's true. It's really odd. We live in a
strange city in a strange time. Nobody really understands people,
you know, La people. I think that's why I heard.
I can't remember what comedian had said this recently. I
think it was Dave Chappelle. Dave Chappelle on July fourth
was asked about what he thinks about America's two hundred
(05:49):
and fiftieth birthday, and he had a great response. He said,
you know, the government screws some things up. They do
some things right, he said, but when we live in
this craziness and foreigners don't know what this is like,
he said. So whenever he's traveling in a foreign country
and he sees an American, he gives them a nod
because they know what it's like to live in America.
(06:09):
Living in America is really really tough to do because
you either have or you don't. In a lot of
other countries, you don't have money, and you know, you
don't own a home, but nobody else does either. But
in America, man, you got to work seven days a
week to get ahead. You got to work your ass off,
(06:30):
and you got to constantly discipline yourself. And it's very
difficult to make it this country, very very difficult. But
and so I think that that you know that as Americans,
we understand that. And you know we're pushed and pushed
and pushed in this country to be the best, the
best in the world. You know, the best baseball team,
the best football team, the best company, the best actor,
(06:52):
you know, the best director. We give all awards to
all the best, and unlike any other country in the world,
you know, we're constantly telling everybody who's better than you,
and you feel horrible after a while. You know, we
know who won the World Series last year and who
won the year before that? But do you know who
came in second in the World Series? Well, last year Toronto,
(07:14):
because it was a pretty popular World Series, But who
came in second the year before that? Who came in
second in the depth in the NBA finals. You probably
be hard pressed to remember, even though you watch the
Knicks play. Who the Knicks beat? And if you said,
you know san Antonio, it was san Antonio, right, Who's
the Spurs, you'd be right. But you are hard pressed
(07:38):
to remember who is second in anything because we press
and press and press to be first, and it works.
It works. Got a great country, got a great country,
and a lot of guys out there going for Now,
we need some help with Boile Heights.
Speaker 7 (07:52):
And what I'm announcing today is my call for the
federal EPA, the US Environmental Protection Agency, to remain inactive
partner here, to continue to monitor the air, monitor the water,
to ensure the safety and health of the residents. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
In fact, the warehouse operators have now received environmental violation
notices for two straight days because of the persistent odor.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Oh no, the EPA is finding them. Now, there's gonna
be a federal fines coming from the EPA in Washington, DC.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Drifting into surrounding neighborhoods, and with these triple digit temperatures
expected across parts of southern California this week, residence fear
the heat could make the smell flies rodent problem even worse.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Oh that's the worst. Okay, here's what's so odd about
where we live. It was my I fed up my
train of thought in the last two minutes ago. So
we have this odor that's coming out of Boyle Heights,
and people who have smelled those crazy flowers in Arcadia
that bloom every five years for twenty four hours and
(08:51):
it smells like rotten beef or rotten hamburger. They people
have smelled both say it's almost exactly the same. The
smell of those of those flowers that bloom every five
years for twenty four hours, and the Boil Heights fire
the Lineage warehouse, they smell almost exactly the same. Yet
(09:17):
there are people running away from that warehouse, getting in
their cars and driving to the Arcadia area to pay
twenty dollars to smell that flower. There's a line of
hundreds of people to smell that rotting flower. And yet
the odour is exactly the same downtown and Boyle Heights,
(09:40):
So save yourself a twenty and slide down to Boyle Heights.
You can sit there all day long and smell as
much as you like, and it's free.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Neighbors have reported noxious odors, vermin and other health concerns
since the fire broke out June seventeenth and burned for
eight straight days. Hundreds of angry residents packed the community
meeting last.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Night, cell pissed. Can you imagine how angry you would
be if tomorrow will be a one month the one
month anniversary, the one month mark of this fire going
on the seventeenth or last week.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Demanding protection, compensation, and temporary housing during the cleanup.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Lineage says they should get housing and vouchers for food
and hotels. It's impossible to live down there with that odor.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
It is offering hotels and rental assistance, airpeer fires, masks,
grocery vouchers, et cetera. Padilla was debriefed on the progress
and the plants for the cleanup yesterday.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
All right, here we go, with this heat wave, it's
going to cause that food to spoil even faster, so
this the odor might get worse and with our inversion
layers and the different micro climates that we have here
in Los Angeles, where the wind shifts in different directions,
You're going to be smelling that odor in different parts
of the city of La especially Ecla, Boil Heights and
(10:55):
the surrounding community.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
It may come and go.
Speaker 9 (10:57):
We also know that at night the smell get worse.
Speaker 8 (11:00):
And the reason why is because as the moisture comes
in from the climate itself in that oceanic breeze.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
All right, Mayor Karen Bass gave forty five day deadline.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Now, yeah, how's that going forty five days? That's never
ever going to even come close to them?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Forty five day deadline. That means August thirteenth is in
orgeted date to get this mess cleaned up. That's very
late us. We're live at boil Heights. Megan, Eric back
to you.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
It's not going to happen. It is not going to
happen in forty five days. It's too big a problem.
You can't get enough guys out there, equipment out there,
enough people to work on it. Even if you're paying
them one hundred dollars two hundred bucks an hour, guys
will just say no. They'll pass. It is brutal. It
can make you ill, give you headaches, I give you know,
(11:49):
your throats on fire, your noses on fire, your eyes,
your lungs. It's a disaster that we've never seen before
in Los Angeles. I remember ever seeing anything like that.
Remember when the libre of tarpits blew up and Fairfax
caught on fire under that kmart who's a kmart? Back then,
that was like two days of smelling you know, uh,
(12:10):
natural gas. Nothing like this. This is the worst thing
in this in that area. I think it's the worst
thing perhaps it's ever happened in that area, maybe in
LA the longest you know disaster that's affected this many people. Well, okay,
maybe an earthquake or you know, huge large fires in
(12:30):
Palisades and Altadena. I get that. But in one little,
tiny incident like this, for having this lingering effect on
that community, it's outrageous. And if I lived in that area,
I would be angry as f all day and all night. People,
you live in that area, Boyle Heights, you got to
raise your voice. You got to raise your voice and
raise hell because they've destroyed your neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty's crazy.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I'll do it right now, A mighty I thought there
was used to be you know, those used to be
uh tomorrow sex toys on KF five. Speaking of sex toys,
Sam z is with us. How you Bob, How you doing? Tim?
It's Bundy in here. You consider you're you're a sex
pervert or sex Yeah? Absolutely, no sexpert? Yes sexpert? Sorry, yes, sexpert,
(13:23):
but you're you worked at the station and how long.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I've been at the station off and on for the
better part of twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Wow, and you're going to you're moving to Spain. I'm
moving to Spain. I'm packing up and leaving. I hate
to say I told you so, but when you when
your kids moved, I said to you, you're gonna go. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
I think everybody kind of saw the writing on the
wall at that point. Everybody who's known me long enough
knows I can't be without my kids.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
No, no way, there are There are three things you
need in your life, your kids, your dog, and this
dildo convention. Yes, absolutely most one time of the year.
Maybe not in that order, but who knows. All Right,
let's talk real quickly about this sex expo that went on.
It was in Burbank. Yeah, I was right here at
(14:06):
the Burbank Marriott, the an May Convention. It's the adult
Novelty Manufacturer's Expo. It's a big thing. It's a billion
dollar industry. And this is the thirtieth anniversary of the show.
Who's the big player, the big corporation in that game?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
There's a few. You definitely have the lube companies and
the toy companies out there. The one that I think
everybody is the most reliable and the most like, the
one everybody points to as far as great sex toys
has got to be the Magic wand that's actually made
by Hitachi. The Hitachi took their name off the brand,
but they still get money for it. Why they took
(14:43):
the name off because they didn't want to be associated.
They didn't want their name because they're an electronics company.
They're a tech company, and they were now having their
biggest product be associated with sex and sexuality when they
were kept insisting it's a back massager.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Right, is there his hers vibrator scent? There are a
few His and herves ones. Nobody nothing's private anymore. You
have to do everything with everybody else, you need an audience.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Nowadays, it's not just that you have toys that hook
to the internet so people remotely can control the function
of it.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
So there's a lot of new tech and AI being
incorporated to this stuff.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
It's one advancement and it's a three day event. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Yeah, it's here in Burbank at the Marriott. It's an
awesome event. It's a trade show, so you can't necessarily
buy your way in or fignd your way in.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I'm surprised Burbank allowed that, you know, because they don't
allow but Burbank's pretty conservative, not politically, but you know,
family oriented, Like there's no pot shops in Burbank. No,
but this is four hundred gun shops.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, and arguably one of the biggest sex toy conferences
in the country, in the world, right it shows.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
It's a three day event. Yeah, and you went all
three days. Absolutely, they feed you. It's great. Well, they've
got the in and out truck over I got it.
I had to show up for that. Did they give
you a free product? Yes, especially the last day of
the show. The companies don't want to carry the product
with them.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Yeah, they want to it out, so they were given
everything away and I got a good three four hundred
dollars worth of song.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Are there any celebrities who are endorsing the product?
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Adult celebrities usually the adult film performers usually get the licensing,
but really what they're looking for are the sexpert who
are sexperts who are into the influencers so wise that
can promote their stuff online.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I see, Buddy, I just wanted to have you comman
because I wanted to say how great it was working
for you.
Speaker 10 (16:24):
Man.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
I'm working with you, I should say it's.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Been a pleasure working here, and I've had serious it's
been a dream of mine. I came here back in
the day when the Lakers were on five seventy and
I threw what I got into radio by sneaking into
Laker games when I was thirteen fourteen years old, and
I would hype it was back at the Forum and
Chick's Nest, where the broadcast booth was was way up
in the top area. So me and my buddy would
(16:47):
just sneak in going through the Forum Club, and that's
where the media would check in, was inside the Forum Club.
We'd stop at the media checking table and just walk through.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
No one ever stopped us.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So for like three years throughout high school, three four
years of high school, I snuck into almost every single
Laker game.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
No, man, I wish I had that trick. I think
it's great. You're gonna be with your kids. They probably
missed the hell out of you.
Speaker 10 (17:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
I talk to them every day about they My boy
keeps telling me how many different restaurants he's trying to
take me too, So I can't wait to get out
there and sample some of the food.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
What was the reaction when you finally told him you're
coming to You're moving to Spain. They were very happy.
The kids were thrilled.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
The boy was how old are I My boy's nineteen
or sorry, my boy's nine and my daughter is sixteen.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Okay, all right, man, that's great you're doing that. Yeah.
I don't mean the world to them, Yeah, and it's
a big loss for us, but I mean the world.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I found an English speaking radio station out there, so open,
maybe I might sneak an overnight dating relationships sex.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Please let us know, let us know.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Yeah, if that happens, I'm definitely going to be sending
you guys all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Please, Sammy, very nice to see you. You're a solid
dude around here. I'd never heard you yell at anybody.
I never heard you, you know, no derogatory terms towards anybody.
You're just a a terrific employee and we and it's
really tough to see all the good employees leave here.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Yeah, it's breaking my heart because this is the job
that I've always wanted and this is where I've always
wanted to be. So it's bittersweet for me because I'm
so happy I get to join my kids and be
with my family.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
But that's gonna be great. But I love this play.
But let us know if you do a show. Yeah,
as soon as that happens, I'm gonna let you safe travels.
Thank you. All right, you're the benefit, all right, Sammy
z Man.
Speaker 5 (18:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KF
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Somebody sent me this on Google. What is Google's AI?
Is it called? I don't know what they used. I
think they have their own Google's AI. Everybody's got their
own AI. But somebody sent me a screenshot of this
Gemini Gemini, Gemini gem and Ai Gemina whole a Hi. Hey,
(18:51):
so somebody took it the screenshot of this Google and
they typed in, what's the number one talk show in
Los Angeles in the evening? And here's why AI has
to say, the number one talk show in Los Angeles
from six to ten pm is the Tim Conway Junior Show.
How about that broadcast on kf I Am six forty.
(19:11):
This is AI talking. This is not somebody who wrote this.
This is not somebody who you know works here. This
is Ai AI And it says the show is a
staple in the southern California radio market. About that, regularly
drawing a massive evening, drive and night audience. The broadcast
(19:32):
blends a topical a local and I'm sorry. The broadcast
blends topical, local and national news, live police pursuits, that's true,
Traffic updates, Angel gets a nod, Pop Culture Crozier gets
a nod, and Sports Bellio gets a nod. Also home
(19:54):
to the guy who wiped out on the one oh five.
I guess that goes into something mouth. Sorry, it's foos.
You got to nod, but not the way you wanted it. Man,
I feel bad for you. All right, let's do this
real quickly and then get back to our lives. They
wanted me to. You know, it's not that hot out.
(20:17):
You know, everyone's talking about that heat warning and the
heat index and it's too hot. It's just summer in LA.
You know, a couple of years ago, I think four
or five, six years ago, whereas one hundred and fifteen
in Burbank. That's dangerous that you need to know about.
But this is just weather in LA. You know, it's
(20:38):
going to be hot. It was in the nineties in
the valley in the valley in mid July, and it's
ninety four out. That's not a story, but everyone's talking
about it. All the news stations start with it too.
They all start with you know, oh, you're not gonna
believe the heat. It's mid July, that's when we have heat.
(20:58):
But every year it seems to get worse worse. Not
the heat, the.
Speaker 11 (21:02):
Coverage pretty warm over southern California, downright hot in many spotixs.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Okay, let's try. Let's get out a pen and write
down how many tips we're gonna get for how to
help treat the heat. You know, light clothing, stay in
the shade, don't work out in the middle of the day,
don't wear flannel, don't wear down jackets, drink plenty of water,
(21:26):
all that crap. Let's find out how many you think
we're gonna get hit with on this story.
Speaker 11 (21:31):
But it's extreme heat is serving part of that weather
picture over southern California, and the numbers are really getting
triple digits, and so many of the inland areas especially
let me show you other numbers are kind of setting up
right now as we're seeing that the peak heat at
the moment. So here's the numbers right at the moment.
Speaker 10 (21:45):
Look at that. One hundred and two in Palmdale.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Hundred and two in Palmdale's not a story. I mean,
I love this guy Romero, he's great. Him in Dallas,
reigns the two kings of weather, and he's probably told
to do this. But this is not I mean, people
in Palmdale and Lancaster they eat one O two's for lunch.
This is nothing for them.
Speaker 10 (22:07):
One hundred and two in Palmdale.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
It ain't a story. One hundred and twenty two in
Palmdale as a story.
Speaker 11 (22:14):
One hundred and one in Van Eyes, we're showing triple
digitsals in Bowman, of course, PAULM.
Speaker 10 (22:17):
Springs one hundred and twelve degrees.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
That's okay, one hundred and twelve in Palm Springs. We're
beginning to get a story.
Speaker 10 (22:23):
The desert really just cooking right now in all the
areas just below one hundred. We're talking about ninety nine
and Hammett and Riverside right.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
There, ninety nine Hemmet. Not a story yet.
Speaker 10 (22:31):
For Temecula.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
We're showing one O one in Van Eyes at the
moment now right there in that.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Fire Van Eyes got doubled up. One O one in
Van Eyes.
Speaker 11 (22:39):
Right there in that fire zone one hundred degrees. So
the heat is certainly there.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Okay, here we go. Now the tips come in and
how to survive.
Speaker 11 (22:45):
This wins as that Pio mentioned, not quite as song.
We're still looking at the steady winds fourteen miles per hour,
those gus still cooking up around twenty one miles per
hour relative ammdee, fairly dry thirty percent, so we can
see those winds coming out of the west blowing towards east,
keeping that fire concerns still kind of high in those
spots because the heat is still with us, not quite
done yet, so in those areas, a red flag warning
(23:07):
watch this. That's an effectual Thursday, and you see the
red just outside of that.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
We're gonna do it. We're gonna get through a hole
with no tips. This guy's great.
Speaker 11 (23:16):
Outside of that fire zone in Santa Krita, which is
under this extreme heat warning that's in play until Thursday,
but then things start to change.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Ah, yes, we got through it with no tips. Danny Romero,
Thank you, thank you, thank you. You treated us all
like adults, and that's what we want, adult being treated
like adults. All Right, we got to take a break
here and then we'll come back. We got some that
food safety tips. That thing is still buzzing around. You know,
(23:46):
we still got a lot of people eating raw vegetables
or even cooked vegetables and coming down with a really
lad bad case of the runs. Man. It's affecting people
who eat mostly eating fruits and vegetables and unwashed. You
know I did last night, Crosch. I went to Low's
and I bought the baking soda. Yeah, it was a
(24:08):
dollar a box.
Speaker 9 (24:10):
Is it like the big one or a small one?
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Yeah, rbnhammer baked soda one dollar for a box. It
could save your life. Costco man, get a giant bag,
I go through it. Oh yeah, I bet. But that's
such a great tip. You know, take baking soda and
water and wash your fruits and vegetables so you survive.
It's a great tip. Great tip. How long do you
do it? How long do you wash?
Speaker 9 (24:32):
For ten to fifteen minutes depending on you know, the
berries and things like that, and like only a couple minutes,
but like anything else produce wise, like fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
You saved lives crozes.
Speaker 9 (24:42):
Hey man, you saved lives one first.
Speaker 12 (24:44):
Yeah, I know people that are looking to get this
virus to lose, you know that last tends.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I bet you're right. I bet you're absolutely right. People
are going to Gelson's and just eating at Gelson's, just
gnawing on everything all the Yeah, that's the Hollywood diet,
you know. You know, two weeks of radical diarrhea.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
I don't know if you guys saw this on KTLA.
Rachel Mentov, who's one of the one of the better reporter.
It's very talented young lady who's reporter over at KTLA.
She was doing a news story and had a cockroach
walk like across her neck and down her chest while
she is on the air and never flinched. This woman
(25:38):
is mate has nerves of steel. It's unreal. You know.
Most people's reaction would be flipping out and you know,
moving out of l A and never showing her face again.
But she's like, com is a center seed and a cucumber.
Speaker 9 (25:52):
What's that? What did you just say?
Speaker 1 (25:55):
As coms actually cool as a centered seed and a cucumber.
That's the turn.
Speaker 9 (26:01):
What was the old famous video of the reporter out
in like a farm. Yeah, and he was just like
oh and all of a sudden, it like.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
May what was happening on my throat? Yeah? He's like,
I gotta get down of this honky white ass part
of town.
Speaker 9 (26:18):
Give everybody here.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
That thing is the size of an eagle man. I
just went out my throat. I gotta get the hell
out of this white town. All right. This was a
local reporter here, Rachel Menotov working. I believe ktl A right,
she's with k tailor. Yeah, and had this uh cocaracha flying.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
All over TV.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Strikes again. An insect made a cameo during one of
our KTLA five live reports God, I love that we
said that if you don't like bugs, look away.
Speaker 10 (26:50):
What.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Yeah, they gotta have a disclaimer for everybody nowadays.
Speaker 13 (26:54):
And it's a lot more comfortable at this hour, but
we're still in the eighties here in the valley, so
over time, but there's not necessarily dropping and this leads
to less recovery time from the daytime heat.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
And I have to hand it to the really calm
I don't.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Know if she knew that was there, so those fly
flying cockra Okay, that's our Rachel were so professional. She
kept her cool. There's no way I would have been
no way. No, she probably wasn't sure what it was.
You just know there's something something large.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
At the end.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I have to say, I'm so relieved that it jumped
onto the mic because it looked like it was going
to crawl.
Speaker 9 (27:40):
Like in her shirt, in her hair, and.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That's terrifying.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
And that's one of the.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
What part of la did this happen? And was it?
Was she covering that that Boile Heights thing? What was
she doing?
Speaker 9 (27:52):
That's terrifying, I know, And.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
That's one of those things that several hours later, you're
still feeling it to right, you still feel like it's
on your body, maybe even several days later.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Oh, that's right, and nightmares about it. Now, we're all
gonna have nightmares about flying. Now, We're all gonna have
nightmares about flying. Yeah, but I'd be curious as to
where that happened. I why there were so many cockroaches around.
It's going on? What's going on with that area? All right?
The corpse flower, that's what it's called. That's where it
(28:22):
blooms every four or five years at the Huntington Library
and Gardens and people. Yesterday there were hundreds of people
in line waiting and paying to see and smell a
flower that smells like dead Hamburg rotten Hamburg.
Speaker 14 (28:43):
Two corpse flowers at the Huntingdon Library and Gardens have
started to bloom. O Doorsius and Odor have both begun
to open and are releasing their famous rotting fleshmell right now.
Each bloom only lasts twenty four to forty eight hours,
and it is one of the rarest and shortest lived
spectacle the world.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah, or you can go to Boil Heights for free
again and just spend the afternoon there with the same odor.
Speaker 14 (29:09):
It's rare for both flowers to bloom. At the same time,
the smell is used to attract the flower's main pollinator,
the carrion beetle.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
There you go, all right, Grocery outlet Farmer's Townhouse, which
is not the actual slogan for that place, but Mondo
thought it was. Yeah, Mondo, we had he was singing it.
He was singing their jingle one night, and he's going,
grocery yell lead Farmer's Townhouse. I'm like, wait, what Farmer's Townhouse.
(29:39):
It makes sense anyway. They are expanding. Grocery outlet is fantastic.
You know, you need to pick something up quick, you
want to spend less on food. Grocery outlet and they're expanding,
kicking ass this place.
Speaker 12 (29:53):
After closing dozens of stores. Grocery Outlet, bargain market now
expanding here in California.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yeah, it's grocery bargain market, not grocery outlet. Farmer's town House.
Speaker 12 (30:07):
Grocery Outlet opening a location in Ontario Rail next Thursday.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Say where in Ontario?
Speaker 12 (30:13):
Opening a location in Ontario Ranch next Thursday. New stores
in Ramona, San Francisco, Clovis, and Petaluma will also be
opened by the end of August.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
I had to get the Yeah, just yesterday, I had
to get those bullion cubes, beef bullion cubes. And I
went to my regular market and they didn't have them,
and I went to Grocery Outlet and that guy showed
me exactly where they were. So Grocery Outlet, you got
an atta boy from me. Yesterday.
Speaker 12 (30:42):
In March, Grocery Outlet announced the closure of thirty six
stores around the nation due to over expansion.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Yeah, well, okay, they're going to pull back, but now
they're going to start to expand now in Ontario Ranch,
where is that crozer? You've been to Ontario Ranch?
Speaker 9 (30:57):
Tario Ranch specifically that name. It's always like it sounds
like one of those Hey, let's add ranch on the
end of it. That'll make it really nice and fancy.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Yeah, it sounds like trying to take the stink off
an existing city, you know, like North Hollywood is also
known as Glen Ivy in parts, or Ivy Glen or
you know Ivy by the Shore without really.
Speaker 9 (31:21):
Short Ontario Ranch is what it is? Yeah, Yeah, it's
just Ontario. It's it's it's a little south of Ontario, proper,
I guess, So it's Ontario yeah, California. Do you think
you'll ever change the name of Ontario because Ontario. I
love Ontario, but it does it did get a stink,
you know, for a long period of time. How about
they change it on Ontario. Ranch is a great name,
(31:43):
great alternative Ontario Ranch.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
It just sounds better.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
You don't have to change all of the signage, just
add Ranch.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Yeah, Ontario is known like in the seventies at ass
is a pretty rough place to live.
Speaker 9 (31:56):
All the wineries and Cucamonga there and where the old
the old old airport was.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Yeah. I love the new airport. New airport's right, Yeah, Yeah,
that's it.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
I did like the old one. I like the classic
look of that. You can still drive by it. I
think they use it for like FedEx and the commercials,
Is that right aspect?
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Yeah? But I like that that Ontario Airport. I was.
We flew out of there, I don't know, I'm about
three or four years ago for Christmas, and I pulled in.
Had no reservation for parking, you know, it didn't make
one online. And we parked probably twenty five feet from
the front of the of that airport.
Speaker 9 (32:30):
Really great it was. It was twelve dollars a day
and you can get in and out of there. You
can even park in those areas. If you're in and
out of there pretty quickly, like ten fifteen minutes. You
don't pay anything.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 9 (32:39):
Yeah, it's a gamme, Go ahead and go that's great.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Yeah, that's where it should be. You know, you're picking
somebody from the airport. Don't sing a guy for thirty dollars.
Speaker 9 (32:45):
Right, because otherwise they're sitting at the curve where you
don't want them.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
That's right, that's exactly right. That's how they all airports.
Speaker 12 (32:52):
Nine California locations were shut down. Now, the CEO says
those closures helped boost profits and paved the way for
expansion indenmore profitable area.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
That's how you do it. You shut down the crappy stores,
make enough money on the good stores, and then open
in better areas. And that's how you get it done.
Speaker 6 (33:11):
All right.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Quick update on this fire the call on the Point fire,
it was thirty two percent contained. That's the one out
off Solidad Canyon and Golden Golden Mantan. It it's Golden,
but that's in the middle of like Valencia, Santa Clarita,
and that fire was thirty two percent contained. Let's give
(33:34):
a quick look see here and see if they have
any more event and it is, uh not. That's about
still about thirty two percent, but that fire is not
in danger. There's nothing happening out there. Thirty two percent containment,
fifty eight and a half acres and they've got that
under control. So if you live out in that area,
(33:55):
forward progress has been stopped. Crews have thirty two percent
containment on that fire. Resources are committed for another four
to five hours. Metrolink service will resume through that area shortly.
So if you're on Metrolink going out to the Antelope Valley,
you've probably been probably very aware that this fire is
going on because you've been sitting on that train for
quite some time. And the fire is yeah, fifty eight
(34:17):
and a half acres and the perimeter is visible on
the watch Duty app, if you'd like to get the
watch Duty app and you can check it out there.
All right, We're live on KFI AM six forty. This
is KFI. This has been the Conway Show on demand
on the iHeartRadio app. Dear is Live. Join us on
(34:37):
KFI AM six forty weeknight, six to ten pm Monday,
through Friday. Tinged along with this app
It's camp I am sixty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
At your ass, Timmy Wow, Timmy Wow.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
He's a little lamb with that. He's always having such
a lot of effort.
Speaker 3 (00:26):
Lamb.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
He knows more than Angel smoked. You just smoked you?
How about that? All right, let's go to Boyle Heights
because the only thing that could make that fire and
the food rotting and the rats and the smell and
(00:49):
the flies worse is heat. And that's what we got.
So we're adding another element to the Boil Heights fire.
Remember the fire that was out hours after it happened
or six hours after it happened, and then reignited in
bird freight days and I think it was eighty five
million or one hundred and eighty five, And I remember,
(01:09):
I think it's one hundred and eighty five million pounds
of food or it was a five. It was eighty
five eighty five million pounds of food rotting. And there's
crab in there, beef, there's a chicken, walrus, zebra, a
lot of odd tastes in la for food, and they're
all sitting in there rotting. And now you add ninety
(01:32):
five degrees to that cleanup and it's a living hell.
The guys that are cleaning that up have got to
be compensated for that, because they're risking their lives. You know,
you can't clean a mess like that up and live
in that smell for a month without it affecting your
entire being. I imagine you have to wash your hair
(01:56):
nine hundred times when you get home. I'm sure there's hazmats,
doots and fans and you know, for breeze, but nothing's
going to wipe out that kind of food. Let's fine,
let's get an update on how it's going in Boil Heights.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
Well, this weather is making the cleanup in that bird
warehouse and Boil Heights even tougher.
Speaker 5 (02:15):
There's millions of pounds of rotting food that is attracting
flies and rats.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Jennifer McGrath, Oh, the short stick. You know in the morning,
when they tell Jennifer McGrath the short stick, because in
the morning, all the reporters get their assignment for the day,
and nobody wants to draw that one, you know, even
though you're gonna get good TV time, and that's how
you advance in the News. Nobody wants to sit down
there all day in that mess, And so Jennifer McGraw
(02:44):
they said, hey, Jennifer, you're going too, and she's thinking, oh,
TV opening of a movie, you know, new restaurant Beverly Hills,
it's opening maybe the fire out in Santa Clarita. Nope,
you're going to Boil Heights. Ah Christ and Katla's Jennifer
McGraw is live in Boyle Heights. Jennifer, good morning, good morning. Yeah,
(03:07):
these guys are sitting in an air conditioned, beautiful, beautiful
studio over there, Katla, and they throw it to Jennifer McGraw,
who's in hell Boyle Heights. Jennifer, good morning, Eric and
Meghan good morning.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
This extreme heat is causing even more issues for those
here in Boyle Heights. The smell is absolutely disgusting. You
can smell it at least a mile away when you
get off the freeway. So you can imagine what it's
like for these workers who are cleaning it up and
the community who's having to live here now. Senator Alex
Padilla toured the site for I.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Bet he didn't stay long, Alex Padella. I bet he
did a drive by on that sucker.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Senator Alex Padilla toured the site for himself. He wanted
to see firsthand what is happening as the massive cleanup
operation is underway. Padilla says he wanted to see the
progress firsthand and make sure the EPA involved in the
demolition and environmental response crews have already removed about one
point four million pounds of rotting food and other waste, but.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Official safe, one point four million pounds of the eighty
five million pounds that are there. They were only supposed
to have forty five days to clean this up. Let's
do the math, shall we. If after two weeks they've
removed let's give them the benefit of the doubt, two
million pounds and now there's eighty three million pounds left
(04:26):
two weeks eighty three. That's forty one more weeks. That's
almost another year, just about nine eleven weeks short of
another year to clean this up.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
One point four million pounds of rotting food and other waste, but.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Official safe, there's eighty three and a half million pounds left.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
More than three million pounds of food waste still needs
to be hauled away.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Okay, Well, if that's true, then somebody lied to us.
If now they're saying only four million pounds of food
has been has turned, as my grandma used to say,
then somebody lied about the eighty five million pounds. So
what is it? Is it eighty five million or is
it four and a half million?
Speaker 6 (05:10):
Just because of fire's out doesn't mean that the situation is. Oh,
is it going to take a bit of time to
continue to clean up. It's going to take a little
bit of time for this community to fully recover, and
so we still need all hands on deck, all the
resources from the city, the fire Department, the AQMD.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yeah, that's true. It's really odd. We live in a
strange city in a strange time. Nobody really understands people,
you know, La people. I think that's why I heard.
I can't remember what comedian had said this recently. I
think it was Dave Chappelle. Dave Chappelle on July fourth
was asked about what he thinks about America's two hundred
(05:49):
and fiftieth birthday, and he had a great response. He said,
you know, the government screws some things up. They do
some things right, he said, but when we live in
this craziness and foreigners don't know what this is like,
he said. So whenever he's traveling in a foreign country
and he sees an American, he gives them a nod
because they know what it's like to live in America.
(06:09):
Living in America is really really tough to do because
you either have or you don't. In a lot of
other countries, you don't have money, and you know, you
don't own a home, but nobody else does either. But
in America, man, you got to work seven days a
week to get ahead. You got to work your ass off,
(06:30):
and you got to constantly discipline yourself. And it's very
difficult to make it this country, very very difficult. But
and so I think that that you know that as Americans,
we understand that. And you know we're pushed and pushed
and pushed in this country to be the best, the
best in the world. You know, the best baseball team,
the best football team, the best company, the best actor,
(06:52):
you know, the best director. We give all awards to
all the best, and unlike any other country in the world,
you know, we're constantly telling everybody who's better than you,
and you feel horrible after a while. You know, we
know who won the World Series last year and who
won the year before that? But do you know who
came in second in the World Series? Well, last year Toronto,
(07:14):
because it was a pretty popular World Series, But who
came in second the year before that? Who came in
second in the depth in the NBA finals. You probably
be hard pressed to remember, even though you watch the
Knicks play. Who the Knicks beat? And if you said,
you know san Antonio, it was san Antonio, right, Who's
the Spurs, you'd be right. But you are hard pressed
(07:38):
to remember who is second in anything because we press
and press and press to be first, and it works.
It works. Got a great country, got a great country,
and a lot of guys out there going for Now,
we need some help with Boile Heights.
Speaker 7 (07:52):
And what I'm announcing today is my call for the
federal EPA, the US Environmental Protection Agency, to remain inactive
partner here, to continue to monitor the air, monitor the water,
to ensure the safety and health of the residents. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
In fact, the warehouse operators have now received environmental violation
notices for two straight days because of the persistent odor.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Oh no, the EPA is finding them. Now, there's gonna
be a federal fines coming from the EPA in Washington, DC.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Drifting into surrounding neighborhoods, and with these triple digit temperatures
expected across parts of southern California this week, residence fear
the heat could make the smell flies rodent problem even worse.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Oh that's the worst. Okay, here's what's so odd about
where we live. It was my I fed up my
train of thought in the last two minutes ago. So
we have this odor that's coming out of Boyle Heights,
and people who have smelled those crazy flowers in Arcadia
that bloom every five years for twenty four hours and
(08:51):
it smells like rotten beef or rotten hamburger. They people
have smelled both say it's almost exactly the same. The
smell of those of those flowers that bloom every five
years for twenty four hours, and the Boil Heights fire
the Lineage warehouse, they smell almost exactly the same. Yet
(09:17):
there are people running away from that warehouse, getting in
their cars and driving to the Arcadia area to pay
twenty dollars to smell that flower. There's a line of
hundreds of people to smell that rotting flower. And yet
the odour is exactly the same downtown and Boyle Heights,
(09:40):
So save yourself a twenty and slide down to Boyle Heights.
You can sit there all day long and smell as
much as you like, and it's free.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
Neighbors have reported noxious odors, vermin and other health concerns
since the fire broke out June seventeenth and burned for
eight straight days. Hundreds of angry residents packed the community
meeting last.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Night, cell pissed. Can you imagine how angry you would
be if tomorrow will be a one month the one
month anniversary, the one month mark of this fire going
on the seventeenth or last week.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Demanding protection, compensation, and temporary housing during the cleanup.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Lineage says they should get housing and vouchers for food
and hotels. It's impossible to live down there with that odor.
Speaker 3 (10:24):
It is offering hotels and rental assistance, airpeer fires, masks,
grocery vouchers, et cetera. Padilla was debriefed on the progress
and the plants for the cleanup yesterday.
Speaker 8 (10:35):
All right, here we go, with this heat wave, it's
going to cause that food to spoil even faster, so
this the odor might get worse and with our inversion
layers and the different micro climates that we have here
in Los Angeles, where the wind shifts in different directions,
You're going to be smelling that odor in different parts
of the city of La especially Ecla, Boil Heights and
(10:55):
the surrounding community.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
It may come and go.
Speaker 9 (10:57):
We also know that at night the smell get worse.
Speaker 8 (11:00):
And the reason why is because as the moisture comes
in from the climate itself in that oceanic breeze.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
All right, Mayor Karen Bass gave forty five day deadline.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Now, yeah, how's that going forty five days? That's never
ever going to even come close to them?
Speaker 3 (11:16):
Forty five day deadline. That means August thirteenth is in
orgeted date to get this mess cleaned up. That's very
late us. We're live at boil Heights. Megan, Eric back
to you.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
It's not going to happen. It is not going to
happen in forty five days. It's too big a problem.
You can't get enough guys out there, equipment out there,
enough people to work on it. Even if you're paying
them one hundred dollars two hundred bucks an hour, guys
will just say no. They'll pass. It is brutal. It
can make you ill, give you headaches, I give you know,
(11:49):
your throats on fire, your noses on fire, your eyes,
your lungs. It's a disaster that we've never seen before
in Los Angeles. I remember ever seeing anything like that.
Remember when the libre of tarpits blew up and Fairfax
caught on fire under that kmart who's a kmart? Back then,
that was like two days of smelling you know, uh,
(12:10):
natural gas. Nothing like this. This is the worst thing
in this in that area. I think it's the worst
thing perhaps it's ever happened in that area, maybe in
LA the longest you know disaster that's affected this many people. Well, okay,
maybe an earthquake or you know, huge large fires in
(12:30):
Palisades and Altadena. I get that. But in one little,
tiny incident like this, for having this lingering effect on
that community, it's outrageous. And if I lived in that area,
I would be angry as f all day and all night. People,
you live in that area, Boyle Heights, you got to
raise your voice. You got to raise your voice and
raise hell because they've destroyed your neighborhood.
Speaker 5 (12:52):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty's crazy.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I'll do it right now, A mighty I thought there
was used to be you know, those used to be
uh tomorrow sex toys on KF five. Speaking of sex toys,
Sam z is with us. How you Bob, How you doing? Tim?
It's Bundy in here. You consider you're you're a sex
pervert or sex Yeah? Absolutely, no sexpert? Yes sexpert? Sorry, yes, sexpert,
(13:23):
but you're you worked at the station and how long.

I've been at the station off and on for the
better part of twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Wow, and you're going to you're moving to Spain. I'm
moving to Spain. I'm packing up and leaving. I hate
to say I told you so, but when you when
your kids moved, I said to you, you're gonna go. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
I think everybody kind of saw the writing on the
wall at that point. Everybody who's known me long enough
knows I can't be without my kids.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
No, no way, there are There are three things you
need in your life, your kids, your dog, and this
dildo convention. Yes, absolutely most one time of the year.
Maybe not in that order, but who knows. All Right,
let's talk real quickly about this sex expo that went on.
It was in Burbank. Yeah, I was right here at
(14:06):
the Burbank Marriott, the an May Convention. It's the adult
Novelty Manufacturer's Expo. It's a big thing. It's a billion
dollar industry. And this is the thirtieth anniversary of the show.
Who's the big player, the big corporation in that game?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
There's a few. You definitely have the lube companies and
the toy companies out there. The one that I think
everybody is the most reliable and the most like, the
one everybody points to as far as great sex toys
has got to be the Magic wand that's actually made
by Hitachi. The Hitachi took their name off the brand,
but they still get money for it. Why they took
(14:43):
the name off because they didn't want to be associated.
They didn't want their name because they're an electronics company.
They're a tech company, and they were now having their
biggest product be associated with sex and sexuality when they
were kept insisting it's a back massager.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Right, is there his hers vibrator scent? There are a
few His and herves ones. Nobody nothing's private anymore. You
have to do everything with everybody else, you need an audience.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Nowadays, it's not just that you have toys that hook
to the internet so people remotely can control the function
of it.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
So there's a lot of new tech and AI being
incorporated to this stuff.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
It's one advancement and it's a three day event. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Yeah, it's here in Burbank at the Marriott. It's an
awesome event. It's a trade show, so you can't necessarily
buy your way in or fignd your way in.
Speaker 1 (15:28):
I'm surprised Burbank allowed that, you know, because they don't
allow but Burbank's pretty conservative, not politically, but you know,
family oriented, Like there's no pot shops in Burbank. No,
but this is four hundred gun shops.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yeah, and arguably one of the biggest sex toy conferences
in the country, in the world, right it shows.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
It's a three day event. Yeah, and you went all
three days. Absolutely, they feed you. It's great. Well, they've
got the in and out truck over I got it.
I had to show up for that. Did they give
you a free product? Yes, especially the last day of
the show. The companies don't want to carry the product
with them.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Yeah, they want to it out, so they were given
everything away and I got a good three four hundred
dollars worth of song.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Are there any celebrities who are endorsing the product?
Speaker 2 (16:08):
Adult celebrities usually the adult film performers usually get the licensing,
but really what they're looking for are the sexpert who
are sexperts who are into the influencers so wise that
can promote their stuff online.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
I see, Buddy, I just wanted to have you comman
because I wanted to say how great it was working
for you.
Speaker 10 (16:24):
Man.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
I'm working with you, I should say it's.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
Been a pleasure working here, and I've had serious it's
been a dream of mine. I came here back in
the day when the Lakers were on five seventy and
I threw what I got into radio by sneaking into
Laker games when I was thirteen fourteen years old, and
I would hype it was back at the Forum and
Chick's Nest, where the broadcast booth was was way up
in the top area. So me and my buddy would
(16:47):
just sneak in going through the Forum Club, and that's
where the media would check in, was inside the Forum Club.
We'd stop at the media checking table and just walk through.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
No one ever stopped us.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So for like three years throughout high school, three four
years of high school, I snuck into almost every single
Laker game.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
No, man, I wish I had that trick. I think
it's great. You're gonna be with your kids. They probably
missed the hell out of you.
Speaker 10 (17:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
I talk to them every day about they My boy
keeps telling me how many different restaurants he's trying to
take me too, So I can't wait to get out
there and sample some of the food.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
What was the reaction when you finally told him you're
coming to You're moving to Spain. They were very happy.
The kids were thrilled.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
The boy was how old are I My boy's nineteen
or sorry, my boy's nine and my daughter is sixteen.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Okay, all right, man, that's great you're doing that. Yeah.
I don't mean the world to them, Yeah, and it's
a big loss for us, but I mean the world.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I found an English speaking radio station out there, so open,
maybe I might sneak an overnight dating relationships sex.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Please let us know, let us know.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
Yeah, if that happens, I'm definitely going to be sending
you guys all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Please, Sammy, very nice to see you. You're a solid
dude around here. I'd never heard you yell at anybody.
I never heard you, you know, no derogatory terms towards anybody.
You're just a a terrific employee and we and it's
really tough to see all the good employees leave here.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
Yeah, it's breaking my heart because this is the job
that I've always wanted and this is where I've always
wanted to be. So it's bittersweet for me because I'm
so happy I get to join my kids and be
with my family.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
But that's gonna be great. But I love this play.
But let us know if you do a show. Yeah,

Speaker 5 (18:23):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KF
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Somebody sent me this on Google. What is Google's AI?
Is it called? I don't know what they used. I
think they have their own Google's AI. Everybody's got their
own AI. But somebody sent me a screenshot of this
Gemini Gemini, Gemini gem and Ai Gemina whole a Hi. Hey,
(18:51):
so somebody took it the screenshot of this Google and
they typed in, what's the number one talk show in
Los Angeles in the evening? And here's why AI has
to say, the number one talk show in Los Angeles
from six to ten pm is the Tim Conway Junior Show.
How about that broadcast on kf I Am six forty.
(19:11):
This is AI talking. This is not somebody who wrote this.
This is not somebody who you know works here. This
is Ai AI And it says the show is a
staple in the southern California radio market. About that, regularly
drawing a massive evening, drive and night audience. The broadcast
(19:32):
blends a topical a local and I'm sorry. The broadcast
blends topical, local and national news, live police pursuits, that's true,
Traffic updates, Angel gets a nod, Pop Culture Crozier gets
a nod, and Sports Bellio gets a nod. Also home
(19:54):
to the guy who wiped out on the one oh five.
I guess that goes into something mouth. Sorry, it's foos.
You got to nod, but not the way you wanted it. Man,
I feel bad for you. All right, let's do this
real quickly and then get back to our lives. They
wanted me to. You know, it's not that hot out.
(20:17):
You know, everyone's talking about that heat warning and the
heat index and it's too hot. It's just summer in LA.
You know, a couple of years ago, I think four
or five, six years ago, whereas one hundred and fifteen
in Burbank. That's dangerous that you need to know about.
But this is just weather in LA. You know, it's
(20:38):
going to be hot. It was in the nineties in
the valley in the valley in mid July, and it's
ninety four out. That's not a story, but everyone's talking
about it. All the news stations start with it too.
They all start with you know, oh, you're not gonna
believe the heat. It's mid July, that's when we have heat.
(20:58):
But every year it seems to get worse worse. Not
the heat, the.
Speaker 11 (21:02):
Coverage pretty warm over southern California, downright hot in many spotixs.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Okay, let's try. Let's get out a pen and write
down how many tips we're gonna get for how to
help treat the heat. You know, light clothing, stay in
the shade, don't work out in the middle of the day,
don't wear flannel, don't wear down jackets, drink plenty of water,
(21:26):
all that crap. Let's find out how many you think
we're gonna get hit with on this story.
Speaker 11 (21:31):
But it's extreme heat is serving part of that weather
picture over southern California, and the numbers are really getting
triple digits, and so many of the inland areas especially
let me show you other numbers are kind of setting up
right now as we're seeing that the peak heat at
the moment. So here's the numbers right at the moment.
Speaker 10 (21:45):
Look at that. One hundred and two in Palmdale.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Hundred and two in Palmdale's not a story. I mean,
I love this guy Romero, he's great. Him in Dallas,
reigns the two kings of weather, and he's probably told
to do this. But this is not I mean, people
in Palmdale and Lancaster they eat one O two's for lunch.
This is nothing for them.
Speaker 10 (22:07):
One hundred and two in Palmdale.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
It ain't a story. One hundred and twenty two in
Palmdale as a story.
Speaker 11 (22:14):
One hundred and one in Van Eyes, we're showing triple
digitsals in Bowman, of course, PAULM.
Speaker 10 (22:17):
Springs one hundred and twelve degrees.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
That's okay, one hundred and twelve in Palm Springs. We're
beginning to get a story.
Speaker 10 (22:23):
The desert really just cooking right now in all the
areas just below one hundred. We're talking about ninety nine
and Hammett and Riverside right.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
There, ninety nine Hemmet. Not a story yet.
Speaker 10 (22:31):
For Temecula.
Speaker 11 (22:32):
We're showing one O one in Van Eyes at the
moment now right there in that.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Fire Van Eyes got doubled up. One O one in
Van Eyes.
Speaker 11 (22:39):
Right there in that fire zone one hundred degrees. So
the heat is certainly there.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Okay, here we go. Now the tips come in and
how to survive.
Speaker 11 (22:45):
This wins as that Pio mentioned, not quite as song.
We're still looking at the steady winds fourteen miles per hour,
those gus still cooking up around twenty one miles per
hour relative ammdee, fairly dry thirty percent, so we can
see those winds coming out of the west blowing towards east,
keeping that fire concerns still kind of high in those
spots because the heat is still with us, not quite
done yet, so in those areas, a red flag warning
(23:07):
watch this. That's an effectual Thursday, and you see the
red just outside of that.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
We're gonna do it. We're gonna get through a hole
with no tips. This guy's great.
Speaker 11 (23:16):
Outside of that fire zone in Santa Krita, which is
under this extreme heat warning that's in play until Thursday,
but then things start to change.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
Ah, yes, we got through it with no tips. Danny Romero,
Thank you, thank you, thank you. You treated us all
like adults, and that's what we want, adult being treated
like adults. All Right, we got to take a break
here and then we'll come back. We got some that
food safety tips. That thing is still buzzing around. You know,
(23:46):
we still got a lot of people eating raw vegetables
or even cooked vegetables and coming down with a really
lad bad case of the runs. Man. It's affecting people
who eat mostly eating fruits and vegetables and unwashed. You
know I did last night, Crosch. I went to Low's
and I bought the baking soda. Yeah, it was a
(24:08):
dollar a box.
Speaker 9 (24:10):
Is it like the big one or a small one?
Speaker 1 (24:13):
Yeah, rbnhammer baked soda one dollar for a box. It
could save your life. Costco man, get a giant bag,
I go through it. Oh yeah, I bet. But that's
such a great tip. You know, take baking soda and
water and wash your fruits and vegetables so you survive.
It's a great tip. Great tip. How long do you
do it? How long do you wash?
Speaker 9 (24:32):
For ten to fifteen minutes depending on you know, the
berries and things like that, and like only a couple minutes,
but like anything else produce wise, like fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
You saved lives crozes.
Speaker 9 (24:42):
Hey man, you saved lives one first.
Speaker 12 (24:44):
Yeah, I know people that are looking to get this
virus to lose, you know that last tends.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I bet you're right. I bet you're absolutely right. People
are going to Gelson's and just eating at Gelson's, just
gnawing on everything all the Yeah, that's the Hollywood diet,
you know. You know, two weeks of radical diarrhea.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
I don't know if you guys saw this on KTLA.
Rachel Mentov, who's one of the one of the better reporter.
It's very talented young lady who's reporter over at KTLA.
She was doing a news story and had a cockroach
walk like across her neck and down her chest while
she is on the air and never flinched. This woman
(25:38):
is mate has nerves of steel. It's unreal. You know.
Most people's reaction would be flipping out and you know,
moving out of l A and never showing her face again.
But she's like, com is a center seed and a cucumber.
Speaker 9 (25:52):
What's that? What did you just say?
Speaker 1 (25:55):
As coms actually cool as a centered seed and a cucumber.
That's the turn.
Speaker 9 (26:01):
What was the old famous video of the reporter out
in like a farm. Yeah, and he was just like
oh and all of a sudden, it like.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
May what was happening on my throat? Yeah? He's like,
I gotta get down of this honky white ass part
of town.
Speaker 9 (26:18):
Give everybody here.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
That thing is the size of an eagle man. I
just went out my throat. I gotta get the hell
out of this white town. All right. This was a
local reporter here, Rachel Menotov working. I believe ktl A right,
she's with k tailor. Yeah, and had this uh cocaracha flying.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
All over TV.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
Strikes again. An insect made a cameo during one of
our KTLA five live reports God, I love that we
said that if you don't like bugs, look away.
Speaker 10 (26:50):
What.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
Yeah, they gotta have a disclaimer for everybody nowadays.
Speaker 13 (26:54):
And it's a lot more comfortable at this hour, but
we're still in the eighties here in the valley, so
over time, but there's not necessarily dropping and this leads
to less recovery time from the daytime heat.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
And I have to hand it to the really calm
I don't.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
Know if she knew that was there, so those fly
flying cockra Okay, that's our Rachel were so professional. She
kept her cool. There's no way I would have been
no way. No, she probably wasn't sure what it was.
You just know there's something something large.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
At the end.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I have to say, I'm so relieved that it jumped
onto the mic because it looked like it was going
to crawl.
Speaker 9 (27:40):
Like in her shirt, in her hair, and.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That's terrifying.
Speaker 4 (27:45):
And that's one of the.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
What part of la did this happen? And was it?
Was she covering that that Boile Heights thing? What was
she doing?
Speaker 9 (27:52):
That's terrifying, I know, And.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
That's one of those things that several hours later, you're
still feeling it to right, you still feel like it's
on your body, maybe even several days later.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
Oh, that's right, and nightmares about it. Now, we're all
gonna have nightmares about flying. Now, We're all gonna have
nightmares about flying. Yeah, but I'd be curious as to
where that happened. I why there were so many cockroaches around.
It's going on? What's going on with that area? All right?
The corpse flower, that's what it's called. That's where it
(28:22):
blooms every four or five years at the Huntington Library
and Gardens and people. Yesterday there were hundreds of people
in line waiting and paying to see and smell a
flower that smells like dead Hamburg rotten Hamburg.
Speaker 14 (28:43):
Two corpse flowers at the Huntingdon Library and Gardens have
started to bloom. O Doorsius and Odor have both begun
to open and are releasing their famous rotting fleshmell right now.
Each bloom only lasts twenty four to forty eight hours,
and it is one of the rarest and shortest lived
spectacle the world.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
Yeah, or you can go to Boil Heights for free
again and just spend the afternoon there with the same odor.
Speaker 14 (29:09):
It's rare for both flowers to bloom. At the same time,
the smell is used to attract the flower's main pollinator,
the carrion beetle.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
There you go, all right, Grocery outlet Farmer's Townhouse, which
is not the actual slogan for that place, but Mondo
thought it was. Yeah, Mondo, we had he was singing it.
He was singing their jingle one night, and he's going,
grocery yell lead Farmer's Townhouse. I'm like, wait, what Farmer's Townhouse.
(29:39):
It makes sense anyway. They are expanding. Grocery outlet is fantastic.
You know, you need to pick something up quick, you
want to spend less on food. Grocery outlet and they're expanding,
kicking ass this place.
Speaker 12 (29:53):
After closing dozens of stores. Grocery Outlet, bargain market now
expanding here in California.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Yeah, it's grocery bargain market, not grocery outlet. Farmer's town House.
Speaker 12 (30:07):
Grocery Outlet opening a location in Ontario Rail next Thursday.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Say where in Ontario?
Speaker 12 (30:13):
Opening a location in Ontario Ranch next Thursday. New stores
in Ramona, San Francisco, Clovis, and Petaluma will also be
opened by the end of August.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
I had to get the Yeah, just yesterday, I had
to get those bullion cubes, beef bullion cubes. And I
went to my regular market and they didn't have them,
and I went to Grocery Outlet and that guy showed
me exactly where they were. So Grocery Outlet, you got
an atta boy from me. Yesterday.
Speaker 12 (30:42):
In March, Grocery Outlet announced the closure of thirty six
stores around the nation due to over expansion.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Yeah, well, okay, they're going to pull back, but now
they're going to start to expand now in Ontario Ranch,
where is that crozer? You've been to Ontario Ranch?
Speaker 9 (30:57):
Tario Ranch specifically that name. It's always like it sounds
like one of those Hey, let's add ranch on the
end of it. That'll make it really nice and fancy.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Yeah, it sounds like trying to take the stink off
an existing city, you know, like North Hollywood is also
known as Glen Ivy in parts, or Ivy Glen or
you know Ivy by the Shore without really.
Speaker 9 (31:21):
Short Ontario Ranch is what it is? Yeah, Yeah, it's
just Ontario. It's it's it's a little south of Ontario, proper,
I guess, So it's Ontario yeah, California. Do you think
you'll ever change the name of Ontario because Ontario. I
love Ontario, but it does it did get a stink,
you know, for a long period of time. How about
they change it on Ontario. Ranch is a great name,
(31:43):
great alternative Ontario Ranch.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
It just sounds better.
Speaker 9 (31:47):
You don't have to change all of the signage, just
add Ranch.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
Yeah, Ontario is known like in the seventies at ass
is a pretty rough place to live.
Speaker 9 (31:56):
All the wineries and Cucamonga there and where the old
the old old airport was.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Yeah. I love the new airport. New airport's right, Yeah, Yeah,
that's it.
Speaker 9 (32:06):
I did like the old one. I like the classic
look of that. You can still drive by it. I
think they use it for like FedEx and the commercials,
Is that right aspect?
Speaker 1 (32:13):
Yeah? But I like that that Ontario Airport. I was.
We flew out of there, I don't know, I'm about
three or four years ago for Christmas, and I pulled in.
Had no reservation for parking, you know, it didn't make
one online. And we parked probably twenty five feet from
the front of the of that airport.
Speaker 9 (32:30):
Really great it was. It was twelve dollars a day
and you can get in and out of there. You
can even park in those areas. If you're in and
out of there pretty quickly, like ten fifteen minutes. You
don't pay anything.
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 9 (32:39):
Yeah, it's a gamme, Go ahead and go that's great.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Yeah, that's where it should be. You know, you're picking
somebody from the airport. Don't sing a guy for thirty dollars.
Speaker 9 (32:45):
Right, because otherwise they're sitting at the curve where you
don't want them.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
That's right, that's exactly right. That's how they all airports.
Speaker 12 (32:52):
Nine California locations were shut down. Now, the CEO says
those closures helped boost profits and paved the way for
expansion indenmore profitable area.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
That's how you do it. You shut down the crappy stores,
make enough money on the good stores, and then open
in better areas. And that's how you get it done.
Speaker 6 (33:11):
All right.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Quick update on this fire the call on the Point fire,
it was thirty two percent contained. That's the one out
off Solidad Canyon and Golden Golden Mantan. It it's Golden,
but that's in the middle of like Valencia, Santa Clarita,
and that fire was thirty two percent contained. Let's give
(33:34):
a quick look see here and see if they have
any more event and it is, uh not. That's about
still about thirty two percent, but that fire is not
in danger. There's nothing happening out there. Thirty two percent containment,
fifty eight and a half acres and they've got that
under control. So if you live out in that area,
(33:55):
forward progress has been stopped. Crews have thirty two percent
containment on that fire. Resources are committed for another four
to five hours. Metrolink service will resume through that area shortly.
So if you're on Metrolink going out to the Antelope Valley,
you've probably been probably very aware that this fire is
going on because you've been sitting on that train for
quite some time. And the fire is yeah, fifty eight
(34:17):
and a half acres and the perimeter is visible on
the watch Duty app, if you'd like to get the
watch Duty app and you can check it out there.
