Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's CAMF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am sixty and you're listening to the Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app. HEYF, I am six.
It is the Codway Show. Digged ang with everybody Krosier,
Happy afternoon, buddy or good afternoon. I didn't see it
before we went on, not purposely, just meeting with the boss,
(00:23):
the you know calbyan Well, and you say crap on
the air that gets the station in trouble. They call
me then, yeah, they That's why I threw you under
the bus. And I'm like, hey, it was you know,
called Krozier ten times more crap than I do here.
(00:43):
But I will say this, I I'm hoping for a
big Christmas bonus, maybe not here at work, but for
the from the listeners because I gave you the winner
in the Super Bowl. I said, I'm gonna put a
couple bucks on the Patriots, back the Brinks truck up
(01:04):
and load up on Seattle. As soon as I make
a bet on a team, the other team wins by
double digits, and I told that to everybody. I can
go back to last week's show and I can pick
the audio out maybe five to ten, maybe even fifteen
times I said, I'm taking the Patriots, so you can
(01:24):
make money. Bet Seattle and bet them big. I recommended
people take out helocks, which is what I was called
in today for. And I said at the time, I
was just kidding, you know, And they said, you know,
it's not really company policy to advise the audience to
(01:45):
take out a helock and bet it on the outcome
of a sporting event. Oh my, all right, out right,
up right out right. But I was right. I was right,
and they covered, Seattle covered, and so I had the
Patriots cause I knew Seattle would win. I want to
give you that. And then I had the over and
there was a late touchdown in that game by Seattle.
(02:08):
It was called back for holding. If that touchdown counted,
I would have won the over and I would have
broken even for the day. Instead, I lost both bets.
Plus I took a ten to one shot that I
thought was a long shot, but I played it anyway,
just as a gimmick. I was. I bet that bad
(02:30):
Bunny was going to do the whole halftime in English,
and I lost that. So I lost that that one
as well. Over three. I wasn't well aware. I wasn't
aware it and I guess enough about bad Bunny's career,
and I thought, yeah, he's in United they still do
it in English, and they did in Spanish and I
lost that bet as well. So over three, Bellio, where
(02:53):
did you watch it? People always ask about you. They
you know, you're like a big hit, You're the Curburnet
of radio, and people want to know where you were.
She stepped out. Oh great, all right, but people are
always asking about Bellio. I was at a party last
night and the one thing everybody asked about is Sharon Bellio.
How is it working with the Carol Burnette of talk radio?
(03:16):
And then the other guy goes, does she really call
herself that? I go, yeah, yeah, that's what she does.
Angel where'd you look at the game?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
I was over at some friend's house and you.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Bring your dog. You seem like a person bringing the
dog to the friend's house.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I did it because they had a couple of dogs,
and I you know, they stayed home hung Yeah, she
hung out with my mom, kept her company watching the game,
and then had a great time, lots of good food,
lots of good friends, and had a wonderful night.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Oh kind all right, that's a good night. Yeah, that's
a good night. What'd you do, Croach? What did you
do for the game? You watch it? Yeah, Jenn and
I watched it yesterday at the house. Oh that's the
way to go. I made some good snacks, some scratch,
you know, some meatball sub little dude. Would you do
steph fohe did you know it was on? I sure did.
Did you look at it?
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Watch it with my dad and got what else? Pizza show?
Oh that's great. You got it delivered or you go
get it? Oh no, we went together because it's like
literally two minutes away from it. Wow, a house. I
went to Stephen Klubec's party. He was running for a
governor and he has this massive house in Beverly Hills,
(04:26):
and so I went there. There's a couple other people
from the station, and I was talking to a guy
and you know, it's dark. The lights are down so
you can see the TV. He had maybe like ten
TV sets on, and you know, there's a lot of
decorations and there's music playing. It's a great it was
a great vibe. Just a spectacular home. It looks like
(04:47):
a four seasons hotel. Does not look like a man's house.
It looks like you know, like if somebody said this
is a billion dollar house, I'm like, okay, I see that.
I see that. I see every sin of that absolutely.
And so I'm sitting next to a guy and he
has a San Francisco hat on. He go, this guy
to Sting, you know, the Seahawks winning on your home turf.
(05:10):
He says, you have no fing I do. He says,
I can't believe I'm watching this. He grew up in
San Francisco, big San Francisco fan, went to the Super Bowl,
a couple of Super Bowls, I think with his dad,
watched them all on TV. Biggest San Francisco forty nine
ers fan of the world. And this is going to
Sting when the Seattle Seahawks win on their field. And
I said, I'm the same way. I'm a big RAMS fan.
(05:30):
I hate San Francisco. I hate Seattle and he and
he goes good, He goes, you should hate San Francisco
because they're gonna be playing in the Super Bowl on
your home turf next year. And I said, okay, all right,
well we'll see about that. And so the guy was
just a totally normal dude, right, just a normal guy.
And if you're a normal sports guy. You have to
(05:51):
love your team and you have to hate other teams.
You have to have hatred towards other teams or other
sportscasters or other you know, parts of the of the
sporting world. That's what makes it great. You know, not
only do I love the Dodgers, but I hate the
Giants and I hate the Padres. You know, you got
to have hatred for the other teams. That's what makes
you a sports fan. And you can't change teams. When
(06:14):
wherever you move, you know, you blend into the town.
My mom was the biggest Dodger fan, ram fan, biggest
Laker fan in the world. My mom had Lakers season seats.
She only about two of them. It was kind of odd.
She had six kids and a husband. She bought she
bought two season seats for the Lakers, and she'd go
almost every game or you know, every other game, and
(06:36):
she'd take one of us. And then, you know, that
was for thirty years she went to watch the Lakers,
you know, screaming, you know, Jerry westfan the whole run.
And then she moves to Steamboat Springs, Colorado, and two
weeks after she's there, she's like, can you believe these nuggets?
How great these are boys, these nuggets? Oh my god
(06:56):
them I are you were a Lakers fan like an
hour ago. It's going on with you? He goes, No,
he's not gonna right beelievable. So I'm sitting next to
this guy he's talking to how irritating and how horrible
and depressing it is for these San Francisco to have
the field and Seattle to win the Super Bowl on
their home turf in San Francisco, brutal considering the ass
(07:21):
kicking that the Seattle Seahawks gave the forty nine ers,
uh three weeks ago. So I'm talking talking to him,
and then Stephen Klubeck introduces us and he says, oh,
Tim Conwoy Junior, this is Eric Swalwell. I I had
no idea who he was. I mean because I couldn't
see him, you know, because the lights were low and
(07:41):
I didn't expect him to be sitting there. But he's
just a normal dude, you know, like Fox News makes
him out to be like the second coming of the Devil,
and he's just a normal guy. You know, if you
talk to somebody in a party atmosphere or just you know,
at a bar, or at a restaurant or something there.
Everyone's the same, you know, everybody within like two or
(08:03):
three degrees. Everybody is the same. And I said, man, man,
you take a lot of heat on Fox News. And
he says yeah. He says, if I'm not you know,
if I'm not on there being ridiculed every day, there's
I've done something wrong. But I think he's uh, you know,
he's running for governor and may win. And I so
if that happens, I'll be an assistant to him, and
(08:25):
I'll be leaving this uh this place. I'll be moving
on to uh, Sacramento. So got Belly always says you
got to attach your your wagon to a celebrity. Bellyo
has always said that I.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Would say star, but in this scenario, it means celebrity.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah, to a big name. That's right, Belly. Oh, and
you've done it. She's usually referring to talking to other
people about you. Hey, Bello, where'd you watch Super Bowl?
Everybody asked about you last night?
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Really? Yes? Three people did? Who name them? Erics, Walwell,
gott An, other names? I mean, yeah, exactly, no, no, no,
I'll tell you who they were. One of them was
a guy who was parking cars, right, and those guys
are all huge fans. The guy's parking cars and the
security all listen, and one of them asked, Hey, what
is Sharon Bellio like? And then another guy was a lawyer.
(09:15):
I s matter of fact, I can tell you all
three places where I was sitting. In the third place,
I was sitting with five guys. One of them had
a very heavy accent, like an Eastern European accent, and
I was eating They had Pink's hot dogs at this party.
I had a Pink's hot dog with chili on it.
My favorite meal in the world. It's a touchdown. And
they asked about the show, and they mentioned your name
(09:35):
in asking about their show, which I thought was great. Cool.
So what did you do for Super Bowl Sunday? People
want to know. We were at home and we made nachos.
There's more to that, really there. I got glad I
didn't know that story. Yesterday, She's home meeting nachos. Yeah, yeah,
(09:55):
the Carol Brendad of Radios home meeting nachos. Well, even
Carol of radio needs a day off. Did you at
least put him on a conveyor belt and like eat
him real quick as they sped up on the conveyor belt.
Did you do anything? Yeah, we did do that. And
I was like, you gotta change John's name to Ricky.
(10:17):
That'd be great. What's that? What was that? Angel Martinez?
Speaker 3 (10:20):
I was kidding now that you mentioned that there were
Pinks hot dogs at that party?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Did they bring the hot dog car? Oh? Yeah, yeah
they did. I couldn't believe. I walk in. First of all,
I saw the Pinks truck outside, like down the block.
I'm like, oh, there's a lot of parties around here.
Please let this Pink's truck be part of this party.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
And it was.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
It was great. And they had Tacos nineteen eighty six,
you know that that that company. Yep, Oh They're terrific.
And I just ate for like two hours. So thanks
to us, Steven klubeck Man, that's quite the invite. I
don't know if I'm can be invited back, but at
least I got one invite. Yeah, probably not, you know,
because at one point I was skinny dipping and he's like, hey,
what's going on with you? And you tend to get
(11:03):
too comfortable? Yeah, yeah, I got I usually don't mix
drinks then I got naked and jumped in the pool wild.
Yeah it was not great, I'll give you that, all right,
Really was it? Yeah? I saw the remote control for
(11:24):
the big TV. You had, like a thirty foot by
fifteen foot TV, like it was beautiful. It's like it
looks like the you know, like the scoreboard at SOFI Stadium.
And then there was a remote there sitting next to
like the main couch, and I picked it up and
I flipped it over to sixty minutes, and everyone went
not so it was great. I believe that is true. True.
I just wanted to see what the third story was
(11:45):

Speaker 4 (13:06):
I'm well?
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Did you watch the Super Bowl? I did.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
I threw halftime and watched the half time show, and
then I went to the grocery because it's dead, it's
the perfect time to go to the grocery.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Do you speak Spanish a little bit? Right? Okay? So
you understood a lot of the music, a little bit
of it, you know.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
I mean, the message was pretty universal. It was a
story that you could see through the visuals. I thought
the production itself, Oh, it was just outstanding.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Was the colors were so beautiful. And I think that's
gonna win an Emmy. I really do. I'm going to
do my my bad Bunny impression for you.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
Oh no, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
hold on. You've got a lot of years on the
radio and you have more years ahead. Think this through
before we impersonate bad Bunny here.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
It is all right, that's pretty good. Yeah, that's the
only thing I can do. Okay, well it's not bad. Yeah,
you kind of did the face too. It was well done. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
I thought the game was horrible. The game was boring,
but you know, the the commercials are fun. The halftime
show was fun. I didn't watch a single commercial. I've
never been that guy and watches that the commercial. I'm
not getting down on you for it. I just don't,
you know, just because you've got a lot of money
usually writing on various outcomes.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yes, and at halftime, I was rory, wiped out, very
worried about the outcome of the event. I will say, though,
that I gave everybody the winner. I put money on
the Patriots, so you could literally take a hee lock
out and bet it on Seattle for as much as
you gamble. I don't ever hear a lot of stories
of victory. Well, i'll tell you why, because nobody wants
(14:35):
to hear them. I do know I like to see. Well,
then i'll tell you privately, okay. But I would never
come on and tell a story of how I make
at the track. I would never tell that story of that,
and it hasn't happened. So maybe I would tell it.
Who knows, okay, But I will say, like, here's a
perfect example. A guy named Sam Simon, who created the Simpsons.
(14:56):
He was worth about I don't know, seven or eight
hundred million, and he called me one day coming home
from the racetrack and he goes, Conway, you're not going
to believe this. He goes, I played my sister's birthday,
my dad's birthday on the pick six, just threw the
cart in. I won twenty six thousand dollars. Oh my god,
I said, oh buddy, that's great. So now you're worth
seven hundred million twenty six thousand. He says, yeah, yeah,
(15:20):
I said, I'm very excited for you, very excited for you.
Nobody wants to hear the winning stories. That's true, That's
absolutely true. They want to hear that, you know. They
don't want to hear that you bought a new car.
They want to hear that you slid into a gas
truck somewhere, you know, to make them their lives feel better.
Speaker 5 (15:34):
Misery, And I know that's from being in the news biz.
Misery cells better, it does. All right, listen to this
promo here it is here, we go. Well, coming up
tomorrow at four o'clock, Tim Conway and I will be
on together and we have a big announcement. Wow, huge announcement.
Maybe it'll be a scary announcement. I have no idea
what it's about. Anyway, listen to me and Tim Conway
and we'll be on tomorrow at four o'clock to unveil
(15:57):
the big, huge, scary, overwhelming announcement.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
All right, I'm gonna go with John. I don't know
what it's about. You and co belt together at four o'clock.
That's right, And I think Paul Corvino is coming into
the boss. Yeah, the guy runs West Coast. Yeah, he's
a powerful man here. That's right, all right?
Speaker 5 (16:16):
Can you say you want to say a guest? I
have no choice. We were going to talk about the
mayor's race. We're out of time for this second, right,
but if we leave now, we'll have more time in
the next set.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
That's right, Okay, let's do that.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Michael Monksters will us. We're talking about the LA's mayoral race.
It's heating up.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
No, well, the field is set, that's for sure, and
it looks like we are going to have a race
on our hands. It was not clear that we would
when you had Rick Ruso decide not to run for
the second time this cycle.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
He's not going to run for mayor.
Speaker 5 (16:50):
You had Austin Butner, the former superintendent of the schools,
pull out because of the death of his daughter earlier
last month. Supervisor Lindsay Horvath could have made it an
interesting race perhaps, but also decided not to seek the mayoralty.
And so we get the Saturday morning and that's the
filing deadline is a Saturday. I think at noon that
was the last opportunity for anybody to sign up. So
you know a lot of us in the media are
(17:11):
staked out or I'm watching from afar and seeing I
anybody's going to come in, and they did it. Councilwoman
Nythia Rahmen really surprised everyone and showed up and filed
to run for mayor despite being a longtime political ally
of Karen Bass personal friend of hers. Karen Bass endorsed
Nythia Rahman in twenty twenty four. When you know the
(17:31):
primaries work, you've got to get fifty percent plus one
or will go to a runoff. So if nobody gets
fifty percent plus one, you've got a head to head race.
And in her race in twenty twenty four to be
re elected to the city council, she had a challenge
a couple of challengers, but she had one that was
kind of generating some enthusiasm and really wanted to get
to that head to head where it could have been
(17:52):
more challenging. Mayor Bass put out this big endorsement for
Nthia Rahmen and Ramen In Now with fifty point seven
percent the vote and was able to avoid had head runoff.
This is thanks much more dangerous and or thank you
is to say, I think we need to move the
city in a different direction.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Now.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
This may not be as big of a challenge that
Mayor Bass could have faced in someone like Rickcruzo, who
provides I think a clearer alternative to Bass. Maybe a
reset might be what's needed for Los Angeles. You're not
going to get a reset for Los Angeles from the
incumbment mayor and somebody who's been on the city council
the entire time that the mayor has been in office,
(18:34):
So how are they going to distinguish themselves from each other?
That's what we will see unfolding this race.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
I have a feeling that they're in on this together,
where Nathy and Ramo will run and then they'll be
after June, they'll be the last two candidates, and then
she'll bail and they'll give a touch.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
John Cobalt has similar suspicions about this and said as
much when I appeared on his show about two and
a half hours ago, and then my show over the weekend.
Michael Munks reports I went in a deep on this
race and got an email from a listener that said
the same thing, like, there are people out there who
think this is to make because I think a lot
(19:12):
of folks in LA were hoping for a Caruso type,
somebody who could get in and say, we've got to
clean up the city aesthetically but also mechanically. We've got
to get into city Hall and make the city function
better because it's out of control. It's not just about
the response to the Palisades fire. There are fundamental problems
with LA And now what appears to be happening because
(19:35):
you have Nithie Rahman, the city council woman who was
very much aligned with the Democratic Socialist You've got a
lane for Mayor Bass to look like the more moderate
candidate in this race. It's kind of and it may
end up being for a lot of voters if it
comes down to these two the devil you know right well,
but you.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Know, I think, look, whatever happens if Raman wins, you know,
it might also be the movement that's going on in
New York City where everyone's going towards extreme socialism, that
might happen in Aline.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
She was excited about the election of Zoro Mamdani. The
La Times had done an article. I think after Mamdani
was elected, there was a watch party here in LA
for the New York election results and the La Times
was there watching some of the DSA aligned politicians and
activists here in the community, and Counciloman Ramen was there.
But the thing that I noted at that time was
(20:30):
we don't have a mayor Mom Donni here. But the
city council has been heavily influenced by the Democratic Socialists
of America.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
They have four.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Members counting council council Woman Ramen, Isabelle Herado, Hugo Soto Martinez,
Unice Hernandez all identify with the DSA. That's four out
of fifteen seats. They hope to get more on there
this cycle, but how complicated is this race? Hugo Soto
Martinez has endorsed Karen Bass already ooh and Karen basson
(21:01):
a press release out today, reiterating that that she has
the support of nine members of the city council.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Well some of them change now that Ramin's in no
indications so far, Okay, I will say this. I don't
often I go into the city of LA just because
I'm like, you know, a home body. I just I
go to Walmart and I go to home deep owned
loves that's where I go. But I did travel over
to Beverly Hills over the weekend and I couldn't believe
(21:28):
the size of the potholes on Coldwater Canyon in Beverly Hills. No, no, no.
In the city, when you get to Beverly Hills, it's glass,
it's beautiful, exactly. But when you drive on the valley
side of Cold Water, all you're doing, you're not watching
for oncoming traffic or the car in front of You're
just dodging pothole.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
That's That's what I mean about the reset that LA needs,
because there is obviously a lot of work to do
with the Palisades, but there's a lot to.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Do with homelessness. We know that. But the basic fundamental
you expect from a municipality are just failure after failure
in Los Angeles. You're the one that said this, and
I couldn't believe it. I did some research, and again
you were right. They haven't paved one inch of new
road in Los Angeles City since last January, since last July,
(22:17):
since fiscal year.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Yeah, you're exactly right, because they don't know how to
manage their money. Councilwoman Ramen put out a video about
ten days ago, and I'm going to share this with
you just to illustrate what the priorities are. And when
folks realize these these messes, how what their proposals are
to fix them, we start shocking. We've talked on this
(22:39):
program and on other programs about the street lights in
Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Again, a basic fundamental.
Speaker 5 (22:44):
Service that the city provides is that you don't have
to walk in the dark, right or drive in the
dark on the city streets, except in Los Angeles, you do.
Thousands of street lights are out. So Ramen puts out
this social media video like, Hey, this is a problem.
We've got to fix this. Problems why this problem exists.
In two thousand and nine, there were two thousand and six,
(23:04):
there were nine reports of copper wire theft of vandalism
at street lights. By twenty twenty one, more than four thousand,
five hundred.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Okay, so rampant theft and vandalism. Now she says the
lights are out, only forty percent of the lights are
out because of vandalism and all of that. But she
also is the main problem is that we have not
updated the assessment in the street light districts. Do you
know what update the assessment means. I can understand updating
the equipment. By updating the assessment, raised the tax Oh,
(23:36):
I see it. There's not enough money, right to fix it. Not,
Let's get tougher on these people who are tearing down
the infrastructure and leaving us in the dark. Let's raise
the taxes on the property owners in various street lighting districts.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Right because she said, nobody has the nerve to do that.
Nobody has the courage, yah, the courage to do it.
So I'll tell you what Burbank did. Burbank took out
all the old, you know, dated nineteen fifty style street
lights and they replaced them with these led you know panels,
and these LED bulbs. And now they run a single
I think it's copper. They run a single thin copper
(24:12):
wire on the top. It's impossible to reach and nothing
goes underground until the end of the endgame. And that
wire is worth nothing because those all those bulbs are
low voltage, and the lass that he could do that,
they just have chosen nothing. They've chosen to force all
of us to wear coal miner hats while we're walking
around and it's dangerous. You know, because very dangerous. I
can't tell you how many people I see drive. You know,
(24:34):
when I'm driving, they're wearing a black shirt, black pants,
black hat, or a black jacket at night without any
lights on, and I've almost run into two or three
of them.
Speaker 5 (24:43):
It's dangerous for pedestrians, it's dangerous for drivers, it's dangerous
for businesses, it's dangerous for shoppers, it's dangerous for residents
in general. And it's completely unacceptable. And to have no
serious conversations about that is what shocks me the most
about watching this government. He cannot get the basic fundamentals right,
so none of us can be surprised when a natural
(25:04):
disaster like the Palisades fire burns an entire neighborhood to
the ground, and the result is nobody knows why it
happened or what to do in the aftermath.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
And you know, simple basic services like why weren't why
wasn't water available for that fire? Crazy buddy, I appreciate it.
I will see you on Saturday eight two ten pm.
You will indeed ding wrong with you, Michael Monks.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
Everybody you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty you.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Know, I always steal things from other people. If you've
heard on the show, it's been stolen at least once.
And one of the things I like is when he
gives out a webs When Bill Handle gives out a website,
he's like, well, you gotta go to Tim Conway Junior
dot com. You know, he's always goes up at the end,
you know, oh yeah, go to Google dot com. Are
(26:00):
you asking? I found that he's hysterical? All right, very good.
We have a somewhat breaking news. Belly was at the
breaking news desk and just waved her arms at me
like she was landing a plane on an aircraft carrier.
So let's find out what it is. A teen has
(26:21):
been shot in North Hollywood. What's going on here? What's happening?
It's early in the week. This kind of crap to be.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Happening right there in the alleyway and Wan just mentioned
it right by the high school STACKAWI pull out and
show as it's North Hollywood High School that is just
on the other side of the street.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Here.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
We do see Los Angeles School police down there as well.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Home of Adam Carolla. Adam Carolla went to that high
school and maybe you're listening, and you went to that
high school, North Hollywood High on the corner of Magnolia,
And I want to say Colefax. Maybe that's not Colefax,
but it's Magnolia, just west of the one seventy freeway.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
So we know that they are a part of this investigation,
along with the LAPD. So the shooting happened here. According
to police, it sounds like the two suspects, or the
suspects rather than two separate cars, took off northbound on Callfax.
What we just heard a couple of minutes ago, and
they're still working to man.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
I tell you I drove a limousine for almost three years,
and I know the valley like the back of my hand.
It is Callfax. I can win that. I just can't
win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
On call Fax. What we just heard a couple of
minutes ago, And LAPEDD tells me they're still working to
verify that this is connected.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
What's going on with these people who's shooting the teens?
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Is that a teenager showed up at an urgent care
just down the street just east of here. Hey, what
is that a teenager showed up at an urgent care?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
No? No, no, no, no, no, sweetie. Urgent care is for
a cough or a splinter or a stub toe, your
shot er time, you want to go where the surgeons
are at. The emergency room. Has got to get to
this kid and explain the difference between a dock in
(28:04):
the box and an emergency room. This is not urgent
care time, well, it is urgent care, but not at
an urgent care er.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Just down the street just east of here with a
gunshot wound. So that person is getting treated now by
the Los Angeles City Fire Department that was directed to
the urgent care to deal with that. So we're gonna
work on piecing this together. But again, Colfax and Magnolia
shooting happening just across the street from North.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Olia High School. And that's where that Taco bell is too,
the taco bell that Corolla applied to and didn't get
the job. And I think he wrote a book. I'm
not the taco bell material. I'm not good enough for
Taco bell.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
A victim potentially showing up down the street at an
urgent care, a teenage boy. So w' work on gathering
more information. Once we have more, will be sure to
letch you and my guy drive through this area a lot.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I see a lot of times the high school students
crossing the street to go to Taco Bell right after.
Got that another reference, another reference. We all have the
same references for Hollywood High. It's you know, call facts, Magnolia,
Taco Bell, and shootings.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Once we have more, we'll be sure to watch you
and my guy drive through this area a lot.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
I see a lot of times the high school students
crossing the street to go to Taco Bell to have
an after.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
School So it did happen just shortly after be something
like that.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Yeah, boy, all right, And there's a private school right
in that area. I don't remember what the I don't
think it's Egmont Egremont, but it is a private school
right in that area. That's probably fifty thousand dollars a year.
And the moms and dads, if you're listening right now,
you hate this crap. The North Hollywood High. Let's see here.
(29:38):
I'll tell you the name of the school here in
a second. But there's a very expensive school on Magnolia.
I'm looking at North Hollywood High right now, and the
name of the school is Oakwood. Oakwood School is on
is just east of where the shooting was. Oakwood is
right off Magnolia in Hollywood Way, and then as you
(29:59):
go away you'll run into well today you'll run into
traffic because of the shooting. But there's a Yung Young
Donuts there and a Taco Bell and that's where the shooting,
I guess has happened. And there's a lot of traffic.
If you're coming southbound on Collfax through that area, it's
all stopped up, and northbound Colfax as well and Magnolia,
(30:22):
so avoid that area. There's been a shooting. Hope this
kid's okay, But if you have a kid that goes
to Oakwood, you are alarmed at this spending fifty thousand
dollars maybe sixty thousand a year for your kids, you know, education,
and there's a shooting a block and a half away.
(30:44):
Rich people hate this kind of crap because when you're rich,
you want your kid to be protected, and when this
kind of crap happens, it drives people nuts, just crazy.
All right, we're live on KFI AM sixty Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you can always
(31:05):
hear us live on KFI AM six forty four to
seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime on demand on
the iHeartRadio app.
It's CAMF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am sixty and you're listening to the Conway Show
on demand on the iHeartRadio app. HEYF, I am six.
It is the Codway Show. Digged ang with everybody Krosier,
Happy afternoon, buddy or good afternoon. I didn't see it
before we went on, not purposely, just meeting with the boss,
(00:23):
the you know calbyan Well, and you say crap on
the air that gets the station in trouble. They call
me then, yeah, they That's why I threw you under
the bus. And I'm like, hey, it was you know,
called Krozier ten times more crap than I do here.
(00:43):
But I will say this, I I'm hoping for a
big Christmas bonus, maybe not here at work, but for
the from the listeners because I gave you the winner
in the Super Bowl. I said, I'm gonna put a
couple bucks on the Patriots, back the Brinks truck up
(01:04):
and load up on Seattle. As soon as I make
a bet on a team, the other team wins by
double digits, and I told that to everybody. I can
go back to last week's show and I can pick
the audio out maybe five to ten, maybe even fifteen
times I said, I'm taking the Patriots, so you can
(01:24):
make money. Bet Seattle and bet them big. I recommended
people take out helocks, which is what I was called
in today for. And I said at the time, I
was just kidding, you know, And they said, you know,
it's not really company policy to advise the audience to
(01:45):
take out a helock and bet it on the outcome
of a sporting event. Oh my, all right, out right,
up right out right. But I was right. I was right,
and they covered, Seattle covered, and so I had the
Patriots cause I knew Seattle would win. I want to
give you that. And then I had the over and
there was a late touchdown in that game by Seattle.
(02:08):
It was called back for holding. If that touchdown counted,
I would have won the over and I would have
broken even for the day. Instead, I lost both bets.
Plus I took a ten to one shot that I
thought was a long shot, but I played it anyway,
just as a gimmick. I was. I bet that bad
(02:30):
Bunny was going to do the whole halftime in English,
and I lost that. So I lost that that one
as well. Over three. I wasn't well aware. I wasn't
aware it and I guess enough about bad Bunny's career,
and I thought, yeah, he's in United they still do
it in English, and they did in Spanish and I
lost that bet as well. So over three, Bellio, where
(02:53):
did you watch it? People always ask about you. They
you know, you're like a big hit, You're the Curburnet
of radio, and people want to know where you were.
She stepped out. Oh great, all right, but people are
always asking about Bellio. I was at a party last
night and the one thing everybody asked about is Sharon Bellio.
How is it working with the Carol Burnette of talk radio?
(03:16):
And then the other guy goes, does she really call
herself that? I go, yeah, yeah, that's what she does.
Angel where'd you look at the game?
Speaker 3 (03:24):
I was over at some friend's house and you.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Bring your dog. You seem like a person bringing the
dog to the friend's house.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I did it because they had a couple of dogs,
and I you know, they stayed home hung Yeah, she
hung out with my mom, kept her company watching the game,
and then had a great time, lots of good food,
lots of good friends, and had a wonderful night.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Oh kind all right, that's a good night. Yeah, that's
a good night. What'd you do, Croach? What did you
do for the game? You watch it? Yeah, Jenn and
I watched it yesterday at the house. Oh that's the
way to go. I made some good snacks, some scratch,
you know, some meatball sub little dude. Would you do
steph fohe did you know it was on? I sure did.
Did you look at it?
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Watch it with my dad and got what else? Pizza show?
Oh that's great. You got it delivered or you go
get it? Oh no, we went together because it's like
literally two minutes away from it. Wow, a house. I
went to Stephen Klubec's party. He was running for a
governor and he has this massive house in Beverly Hills,
(04:26):
and so I went there. There's a couple other people
from the station, and I was talking to a guy
and you know, it's dark. The lights are down so
you can see the TV. He had maybe like ten
TV sets on, and you know, there's a lot of
decorations and there's music playing. It's a great it was
a great vibe. Just a spectacular home. It looks like
(04:47):
a four seasons hotel. Does not look like a man's house.
It looks like you know, like if somebody said this
is a billion dollar house, I'm like, okay, I see that.
I see that. I see every sin of that absolutely.
And so I'm sitting next to a guy and he
has a San Francisco hat on. He go, this guy
to Sting, you know, the Seahawks winning on your home turf.
(05:10):
He says, you have no fing I do. He says,
I can't believe I'm watching this. He grew up in
San Francisco, big San Francisco fan, went to the Super Bowl,
a couple of Super Bowls, I think with his dad,
watched them all on TV. Biggest San Francisco forty nine
ers fan of the world. And this is going to
Sting when the Seattle Seahawks win on their field. And
I said, I'm the same way. I'm a big RAMS fan.
(05:30):
I hate San Francisco. I hate Seattle and he and
he goes good, He goes, you should hate San Francisco
because they're gonna be playing in the Super Bowl on
your home turf next year. And I said, okay, all right,
well we'll see about that. And so the guy was
just a totally normal dude, right, just a normal guy.
And if you're a normal sports guy. You have to
(05:51):
love your team and you have to hate other teams.
You have to have hatred towards other teams or other
sportscasters or other you know, parts of the of the
sporting world. That's what makes it great. You know, not
only do I love the Dodgers, but I hate the
Giants and I hate the Padres. You know, you got
to have hatred for the other teams. That's what makes
you a sports fan. And you can't change teams. When
(06:14):
wherever you move, you know, you blend into the town.
My mom was the biggest Dodger fan, ram fan, biggest
Laker fan in the world. My mom had Lakers season seats.
She only about two of them. It was kind of odd.
She had six kids and a husband. She bought she
bought two season seats for the Lakers, and she'd go
almost every game or you know, every other game, and
(06:36):
she'd take one of us. And then, you know, that
was for thirty years she went to watch the Lakers,
you know, screaming, you know, Jerry westfan the whole run.
And then she moves to Steamboat Springs, Colorado, and two
weeks after she's there, she's like, can you believe these nuggets?
How great these are boys, these nuggets? Oh my god
(06:56):
them I are you were a Lakers fan like an
hour ago. It's going on with you? He goes, No,
he's not gonna right beelievable. So I'm sitting next to
this guy he's talking to how irritating and how horrible
and depressing it is for these San Francisco to have
the field and Seattle to win the Super Bowl on
their home turf in San Francisco, brutal considering the ass
(07:21):
kicking that the Seattle Seahawks gave the forty nine ers,
uh three weeks ago. So I'm talking talking to him,
and then Stephen Klubeck introduces us and he says, oh,
Tim Conwoy Junior, this is Eric Swalwell. I I had
no idea who he was. I mean because I couldn't
see him, you know, because the lights were low and
(07:41):
I didn't expect him to be sitting there. But he's
just a normal dude, you know, like Fox News makes
him out to be like the second coming of the Devil,
and he's just a normal guy. You know, if you
talk to somebody in a party atmosphere or just you know,
at a bar, or at a restaurant or something there.
Everyone's the same, you know, everybody within like two or
(08:03):
three degrees. Everybody is the same. And I said, man, man,
you take a lot of heat on Fox News. And
he says yeah. He says, if I'm not you know,
if I'm not on there being ridiculed every day, there's
I've done something wrong. But I think he's uh, you know,
he's running for governor and may win. And I so
if that happens, I'll be an assistant to him, and
(08:25):
I'll be leaving this uh this place. I'll be moving
on to uh, Sacramento. So got Belly always says you
got to attach your your wagon to a celebrity. Bellyo
has always said that I.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Would say star, but in this scenario, it means celebrity.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Yeah, to a big name. That's right, Belly. Oh, and
you've done it. She's usually referring to talking to other
people about you. Hey, Bello, where'd you watch Super Bowl?
Everybody asked about you last night?
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Really? Yes? Three people did? Who name them? Erics, Walwell,
gott An, other names? I mean, yeah, exactly, no, no, no,
I'll tell you who they were. One of them was
a guy who was parking cars, right, and those guys
are all huge fans. The guy's parking cars and the
security all listen, and one of them asked, Hey, what
is Sharon Bellio like? And then another guy was a lawyer.
(09:15):
I s matter of fact, I can tell you all
three places where I was sitting. In the third place,
I was sitting with five guys. One of them had
a very heavy accent, like an Eastern European accent, and
I was eating They had Pink's hot dogs at this party.
I had a Pink's hot dog with chili on it.
My favorite meal in the world. It's a touchdown. And
they asked about the show, and they mentioned your name
(09:35):
in asking about their show, which I thought was great. Cool.
So what did you do for Super Bowl Sunday? People
want to know. We were at home and we made nachos.
There's more to that, really there. I got glad I
didn't know that story. Yesterday, She's home meeting nachos. Yeah, yeah,
(09:55):
the Carol Brendad of Radios home meeting nachos. Well, even
Carol of radio needs a day off. Did you at
least put him on a conveyor belt and like eat
him real quick as they sped up on the conveyor belt.
Did you do anything? Yeah, we did do that. And
I was like, you gotta change John's name to Ricky.
(10:17):
That'd be great. What's that? What was that? Angel Martinez?
Speaker 3 (10:20):
I was kidding now that you mentioned that there were
Pinks hot dogs at that party?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Did they bring the hot dog car? Oh? Yeah, yeah
they did. I couldn't believe. I walk in. First of all,
I saw the Pinks truck outside, like down the block.
I'm like, oh, there's a lot of parties around here.
Please let this Pink's truck be part of this party.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
And it was.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
It was great. And they had Tacos nineteen eighty six,
you know that that that company. Yep, Oh They're terrific.
And I just ate for like two hours. So thanks
to us, Steven klubeck Man, that's quite the invite. I
don't know if I'm can be invited back, but at
least I got one invite. Yeah, probably not, you know,
because at one point I was skinny dipping and he's like, hey,
what's going on with you? And you tend to get
(11:03):
too comfortable? Yeah, yeah, I got I usually don't mix
drinks then I got naked and jumped in the pool wild.
Yeah it was not great, I'll give you that, all right,
Really was it? Yeah? I saw the remote control for
(11:24):
the big TV. You had, like a thirty foot by
fifteen foot TV, like it was beautiful. It's like it
looks like the you know, like the scoreboard at SOFI Stadium.
And then there was a remote there sitting next to
like the main couch, and I picked it up and
I flipped it over to sixty minutes, and everyone went
not so it was great. I believe that is true. True.
I just wanted to see what the third story was

Speaker 4 (13:06):
I'm well?
Speaker 2 (13:07):
Did you watch the Super Bowl? I did.
Speaker 5 (13:09):
I threw halftime and watched the half time show, and
then I went to the grocery because it's dead, it's
the perfect time to go to the grocery.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Do you speak Spanish a little bit? Right? Okay? So
you understood a lot of the music, a little bit
of it, you know.
Speaker 5 (13:20):
I mean, the message was pretty universal. It was a
story that you could see through the visuals. I thought
the production itself, Oh, it was just outstanding.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Was the colors were so beautiful. And I think that's
gonna win an Emmy. I really do. I'm going to
do my my bad Bunny impression for you.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
Oh no, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on,
hold on. You've got a lot of years on the
radio and you have more years ahead. Think this through
before we impersonate bad Bunny here.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
It is all right, that's pretty good. Yeah, that's the
only thing I can do. Okay, well it's not bad. Yeah,
you kind of did the face too. It was well done. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
I thought the game was horrible. The game was boring,
but you know, the the commercials are fun. The halftime
show was fun. I didn't watch a single commercial. I've
never been that guy and watches that the commercial. I'm
not getting down on you for it. I just don't,
you know, just because you've got a lot of money
usually writing on various outcomes.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Yes, and at halftime, I was rory, wiped out, very
worried about the outcome of the event. I will say, though,
that I gave everybody the winner. I put money on
the Patriots, so you could literally take a hee lock
out and bet it on Seattle for as much as
you gamble. I don't ever hear a lot of stories
of victory. Well, i'll tell you why, because nobody wants
(14:35):
to hear them. I do know I like to see. Well,
then i'll tell you privately, okay. But I would never
come on and tell a story of how I make
at the track. I would never tell that story of that,
and it hasn't happened. So maybe I would tell it.
Who knows, okay, But I will say, like, here's a
perfect example. A guy named Sam Simon, who created the Simpsons.
(14:56):
He was worth about I don't know, seven or eight
hundred million, and he called me one day coming home
from the racetrack and he goes, Conway, you're not going
to believe this. He goes, I played my sister's birthday,
my dad's birthday on the pick six, just threw the
cart in. I won twenty six thousand dollars. Oh my god,
I said, oh buddy, that's great. So now you're worth
seven hundred million twenty six thousand. He says, yeah, yeah,
(15:20):
I said, I'm very excited for you, very excited for you.
Nobody wants to hear the winning stories. That's true, That's
absolutely true. They want to hear that, you know. They
don't want to hear that you bought a new car.
They want to hear that you slid into a gas
truck somewhere, you know, to make them their lives feel better.
Speaker 5 (15:34):
Misery, And I know that's from being in the news biz.
Misery cells better, it does. All right, listen to this
promo here it is here, we go. Well, coming up
tomorrow at four o'clock, Tim Conway and I will be
on together and we have a big announcement. Wow, huge announcement.
Maybe it'll be a scary announcement. I have no idea
what it's about. Anyway, listen to me and Tim Conway
and we'll be on tomorrow at four o'clock to unveil
(15:57):
the big, huge, scary, overwhelming announcement.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
All right, I'm gonna go with John. I don't know
what it's about. You and co belt together at four o'clock.
That's right, And I think Paul Corvino is coming into
the boss. Yeah, the guy runs West Coast. Yeah, he's
a powerful man here. That's right, all right?
Speaker 5 (16:16):
Can you say you want to say a guest? I
have no choice. We were going to talk about the
mayor's race. We're out of time for this second, right,
but if we leave now, we'll have more time in
the next set.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
That's right, Okay, let's do that.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (16:31):
Michael Monksters will us. We're talking about the LA's mayoral race.
It's heating up.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
No, well, the field is set, that's for sure, and
it looks like we are going to have a race
on our hands. It was not clear that we would
when you had Rick Ruso decide not to run for
the second time this cycle.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
He's not going to run for mayor.
Speaker 5 (16:50):
You had Austin Butner, the former superintendent of the schools,
pull out because of the death of his daughter earlier
last month. Supervisor Lindsay Horvath could have made it an
interesting race perhaps, but also decided not to seek the mayoralty.
And so we get the Saturday morning and that's the
filing deadline is a Saturday. I think at noon that
was the last opportunity for anybody to sign up. So
you know a lot of us in the media are
(17:11):
staked out or I'm watching from afar and seeing I
anybody's going to come in, and they did it. Councilwoman
Nythia Rahmen really surprised everyone and showed up and filed
to run for mayor despite being a longtime political ally
of Karen Bass personal friend of hers. Karen Bass endorsed
Nythia Rahman in twenty twenty four. When you know the
(17:31):
primaries work, you've got to get fifty percent plus one
or will go to a runoff. So if nobody gets
fifty percent plus one, you've got a head to head race.
And in her race in twenty twenty four to be
re elected to the city council, she had a challenge
a couple of challengers, but she had one that was
kind of generating some enthusiasm and really wanted to get
to that head to head where it could have been
(17:52):
more challenging. Mayor Bass put out this big endorsement for
Nthia Rahmen and Ramen In Now with fifty point seven
percent the vote and was able to avoid had head runoff.
This is thanks much more dangerous and or thank you
is to say, I think we need to move the
city in a different direction.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Now.
Speaker 5 (18:11):
This may not be as big of a challenge that
Mayor Bass could have faced in someone like Rickcruzo, who
provides I think a clearer alternative to Bass. Maybe a
reset might be what's needed for Los Angeles. You're not
going to get a reset for Los Angeles from the
incumbment mayor and somebody who's been on the city council
the entire time that the mayor has been in office,
(18:34):
So how are they going to distinguish themselves from each other?
That's what we will see unfolding this race.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
I have a feeling that they're in on this together,
where Nathy and Ramo will run and then they'll be
after June, they'll be the last two candidates, and then
she'll bail and they'll give a touch.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
John Cobalt has similar suspicions about this and said as
much when I appeared on his show about two and
a half hours ago, and then my show over the weekend.
Michael Munks reports I went in a deep on this
race and got an email from a listener that said
the same thing, like, there are people out there who
think this is to make because I think a lot
(19:12):
of folks in LA were hoping for a Caruso type,
somebody who could get in and say, we've got to
clean up the city aesthetically but also mechanically. We've got
to get into city Hall and make the city function
better because it's out of control. It's not just about
the response to the Palisades fire. There are fundamental problems
with LA And now what appears to be happening because
(19:35):
you have Nithie Rahman, the city council woman who was
very much aligned with the Democratic Socialist You've got a
lane for Mayor Bass to look like the more moderate
candidate in this race. It's kind of and it may
end up being for a lot of voters if it
comes down to these two the devil you know right well,
but you.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Know, I think, look, whatever happens if Raman wins, you know,
it might also be the movement that's going on in
New York City where everyone's going towards extreme socialism, that
might happen in Aline.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
She was excited about the election of Zoro Mamdani. The
La Times had done an article. I think after Mamdani
was elected, there was a watch party here in LA
for the New York election results and the La Times
was there watching some of the DSA aligned politicians and
activists here in the community, and Counciloman Ramen was there.
But the thing that I noted at that time was
(20:30):
we don't have a mayor Mom Donni here. But the
city council has been heavily influenced by the Democratic Socialists
of America.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
They have four.
Speaker 5 (20:39):
Members counting council council Woman Ramen, Isabelle Herado, Hugo Soto Martinez,
Unice Hernandez all identify with the DSA. That's four out
of fifteen seats. They hope to get more on there
this cycle, but how complicated is this race? Hugo Soto
Martinez has endorsed Karen Bass already ooh and Karen basson
(21:01):
a press release out today, reiterating that that she has
the support of nine members of the city council.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Well some of them change now that Ramin's in no
indications so far, Okay, I will say this. I don't
often I go into the city of LA just because
I'm like, you know, a home body. I just I
go to Walmart and I go to home deep owned
loves that's where I go. But I did travel over
to Beverly Hills over the weekend and I couldn't believe
(21:28):
the size of the potholes on Coldwater Canyon in Beverly Hills. No, no, no.
In the city, when you get to Beverly Hills, it's glass,
it's beautiful, exactly. But when you drive on the valley
side of Cold Water, all you're doing, you're not watching
for oncoming traffic or the car in front of You're
just dodging pothole.
Speaker 5 (21:46):
That's That's what I mean about the reset that LA needs,
because there is obviously a lot of work to do
with the Palisades, but there's a lot to.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
Do with homelessness. We know that. But the basic fundamental
you expect from a municipality are just failure after failure
in Los Angeles. You're the one that said this, and
I couldn't believe it. I did some research, and again
you were right. They haven't paved one inch of new
road in Los Angeles City since last January, since last July,
(22:17):
since fiscal year.
Speaker 5 (22:18):
Yeah, you're exactly right, because they don't know how to
manage their money. Councilwoman Ramen put out a video about
ten days ago, and I'm going to share this with
you just to illustrate what the priorities are. And when
folks realize these these messes, how what their proposals are
to fix them, we start shocking. We've talked on this
(22:39):
program and on other programs about the street lights in
Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Again, a basic fundamental.
Speaker 5 (22:44):
Service that the city provides is that you don't have
to walk in the dark, right or drive in the
dark on the city streets, except in Los Angeles, you do.
Thousands of street lights are out. So Ramen puts out
this social media video like, Hey, this is a problem.
We've got to fix this. Problems why this problem exists.
In two thousand and nine, there were two thousand and six,
(23:04):
there were nine reports of copper wire theft of vandalism
at street lights. By twenty twenty one, more than four thousand,
five hundred.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Okay, so rampant theft and vandalism. Now she says the
lights are out, only forty percent of the lights are
out because of vandalism and all of that. But she
also is the main problem is that we have not
updated the assessment in the street light districts. Do you
know what update the assessment means. I can understand updating
the equipment. By updating the assessment, raised the tax Oh,
(23:36):
I see it. There's not enough money, right to fix it. Not,
Let's get tougher on these people who are tearing down
the infrastructure and leaving us in the dark. Let's raise
the taxes on the property owners in various street lighting districts.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
Right because she said, nobody has the nerve to do that.
Nobody has the courage, yah, the courage to do it.
So I'll tell you what Burbank did. Burbank took out
all the old, you know, dated nineteen fifty style street
lights and they replaced them with these led you know panels,
and these LED bulbs. And now they run a single
I think it's copper. They run a single thin copper
(24:12):
wire on the top. It's impossible to reach and nothing
goes underground until the end of the endgame. And that
wire is worth nothing because those all those bulbs are
low voltage, and the lass that he could do that,
they just have chosen nothing. They've chosen to force all
of us to wear coal miner hats while we're walking
around and it's dangerous. You know, because very dangerous. I
can't tell you how many people I see drive. You know,
(24:34):
when I'm driving, they're wearing a black shirt, black pants,
black hat, or a black jacket at night without any
lights on, and I've almost run into two or three
of them.
Speaker 5 (24:43):
It's dangerous for pedestrians, it's dangerous for drivers, it's dangerous
for businesses, it's dangerous for shoppers, it's dangerous for residents
in general. And it's completely unacceptable. And to have no
serious conversations about that is what shocks me the most
about watching this government. He cannot get the basic fundamentals right,
so none of us can be surprised when a natural
(25:04):
disaster like the Palisades fire burns an entire neighborhood to
the ground, and the result is nobody knows why it
happened or what to do in the aftermath.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
And you know, simple basic services like why weren't why
wasn't water available for that fire? Crazy buddy, I appreciate it.
I will see you on Saturday eight two ten pm.
You will indeed ding wrong with you, Michael Monks.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
Everybody you're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from
KFI AM six forty you.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Know, I always steal things from other people. If you've
heard on the show, it's been stolen at least once.
And one of the things I like is when he
gives out a webs When Bill Handle gives out a website,
he's like, well, you gotta go to Tim Conway Junior
dot com. You know, he's always goes up at the end,
you know, oh yeah, go to Google dot com. Are
(26:00):
you asking? I found that he's hysterical? All right, very good.
We have a somewhat breaking news. Belly was at the
breaking news desk and just waved her arms at me
like she was landing a plane on an aircraft carrier.
So let's find out what it is. A teen has
(26:21):
been shot in North Hollywood. What's going on here? What's happening?
It's early in the week. This kind of crap to be.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Happening right there in the alleyway and Wan just mentioned
it right by the high school STACKAWI pull out and
show as it's North Hollywood High School that is just
on the other side of the street.
Speaker 4 (26:36):
Here.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
We do see Los Angeles School police down there as well.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Home of Adam Carolla. Adam Carolla went to that high
school and maybe you're listening, and you went to that
high school, North Hollywood High on the corner of Magnolia,
And I want to say Colefax. Maybe that's not Colefax,
but it's Magnolia, just west of the one seventy freeway.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
So we know that they are a part of this investigation,
along with the LAPD. So the shooting happened here. According
to police, it sounds like the two suspects, or the
suspects rather than two separate cars, took off northbound on Callfax.
What we just heard a couple of minutes ago, and
they're still working to man.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
I tell you I drove a limousine for almost three years,
and I know the valley like the back of my hand.
It is Callfax. I can win that. I just can't
win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
On call Fax. What we just heard a couple of
minutes ago, And LAPEDD tells me they're still working to
verify that this is connected.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
What's going on with these people who's shooting the teens?
Speaker 1 (27:33):
Is that a teenager showed up at an urgent care
just down the street just east of here. Hey, what
is that a teenager showed up at an urgent care?
Speaker 2 (27:42):
No? No, no, no, no, no, sweetie. Urgent care is for
a cough or a splinter or a stub toe, your
shot er time, you want to go where the surgeons
are at. The emergency room. Has got to get to
this kid and explain the difference between a dock in
(28:04):
the box and an emergency room. This is not urgent
care time, well, it is urgent care, but not at
an urgent care er.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Just down the street just east of here with a
gunshot wound. So that person is getting treated now by
the Los Angeles City Fire Department that was directed to
the urgent care to deal with that. So we're gonna
work on piecing this together. But again, Colfax and Magnolia
shooting happening just across the street from North.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Olia High School. And that's where that Taco bell is too,
the taco bell that Corolla applied to and didn't get
the job. And I think he wrote a book. I'm
not the taco bell material. I'm not good enough for
Taco bell.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
A victim potentially showing up down the street at an
urgent care, a teenage boy. So w' work on gathering
more information. Once we have more, will be sure to
letch you and my guy drive through this area a lot.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
I see a lot of times the high school students
crossing the street to go to Taco Bell right after.
Got that another reference, another reference. We all have the
same references for Hollywood High. It's you know, call facts, Magnolia,
Taco Bell, and shootings.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Once we have more, we'll be sure to watch you
and my guy drive through this area a lot.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
I see a lot of times the high school students
crossing the street to go to Taco Bell to have
an after.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
School So it did happen just shortly after be something
like that.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Yeah, boy, all right, And there's a private school right
in that area. I don't remember what the I don't
think it's Egmont Egremont, but it is a private school
right in that area. That's probably fifty thousand dollars a year.
And the moms and dads, if you're listening right now,
you hate this crap. The North Hollywood High. Let's see here.
(29:38):
I'll tell you the name of the school here in
a second. But there's a very expensive school on Magnolia.
I'm looking at North Hollywood High right now, and the
name of the school is Oakwood. Oakwood School is on
is just east of where the shooting was. Oakwood is
right off Magnolia in Hollywood Way, and then as you
(29:59):
go away you'll run into well today you'll run into
traffic because of the shooting. But there's a Yung Young
Donuts there and a Taco Bell and that's where the shooting,
I guess has happened. And there's a lot of traffic.
If you're coming southbound on Collfax through that area, it's
all stopped up, and northbound Colfax as well and Magnolia,
(30:22):
so avoid that area. There's been a shooting. Hope this
kid's okay, But if you have a kid that goes
to Oakwood, you are alarmed at this spending fifty thousand
dollars maybe sixty thousand a year for your kids, you know, education,
and there's a shooting a block and a half away.
(30:44):
Rich people hate this kind of crap because when you're rich,
you want your kid to be protected, and when this
kind of crap happens, it drives people nuts, just crazy.
