Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to The
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. It is
the Conway Show. All right, we got breaking news here.
A sinkhole. A sinkhole in Ventura. What's going on here?
Speaker 2 (00:18):
And show you where that sinkhole has formed here?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Look at the cars that.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Are back into it. This is an industrial property here
off of Front Street where the cars have gone down
into that sinkhole.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Dodo it looks like?
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Do do the construction from next door now? Also a
portion of the boards this is towards Thompson Boulevard here
has also kind of collapsed in on itself. But again,
no injuries that we've heard of at this point, and
it's unclear what's going to happen to that property. This
area is a mixture of residential and industrial properties. In fact,
you see the apartment complex here just to the north
(00:52):
side of the construction site where you understand that this
is going to be luxury apartments as well once it's completed.
But for now, this large stink has a form here
in this back property of an industrial complex off the
front street. That's the latest overhead up in Sky five.
I'll send it back to you.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
All right, man, they are find that that whatever equipment
they're using it on k T l A is great.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
You know.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
It sounds like the guy's uh on a landline and
he probably isn't, you know, he's a helicopter.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
But he did say do do twice. I think do do?
Speaker 2 (01:25):
It looks like do do the he's.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Do doing all over the do do too? Do do do? Do?
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Do do? It looks like do do? The construction from
next door now also a portion.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Do do do do?
Speaker 4 (01:39):
Do?
Speaker 5 (01:39):
Do?
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Do? Do?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Do?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Do what you do? Do you do? Do do? Kiki's loud?
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Huh we turned that Mike, Okay, Welsh, She's quiet man.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
And that's ballyo too. What do they do today? Just
yell all day? Man? Oh man, what's happening?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
What's happening? Something's happening, Yeah, something's going on. Hey, these
eagles Lyle and Eric are flying. Have you seen this?
Go to the eagle cam and Big Bear. They're taken off.
Speaker 6 (02:18):
The Big Bear eaglets are this close to taking flight
for the first time just a short time ago, either
son your gizmo, flap their wings, you see it lift
off from the nest by just a few feet and
then moments later decided they weren't quite ready for that
first flight. Of course, it could happen at any time,
and we certainly will be watching.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
So Sonny or Gizmo whoever was still in the nest
looking up thinking you had it.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
You were they were so close, or as as siblings
do go and show off coming out. Yeah, but you
know they're seventy five eighty feet high in that tree,
so they better be sure they can fly before they
jump out of that nest.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
But they're gonna be flying around.
Speaker 7 (02:58):
You're listening to Tim's Way Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Every single Thursday. We got a guy on who knows
more about putting houses together and dec rating and building.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Anybody I know.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
He's got a very popular show every single Saturday morning
from six to eight am, and then right back on
Sunday from nine am until noon. His name is Dean
Sharp and he is the house whisper. Welcome to show, Bob,
Hi Brah, Hey there you are. How are you, sir?
I'm here, I'm here an excellent.
Speaker 7 (03:31):
Hey.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
We're going to start on something you pitched. Last time.
You were on something that was really cool called super wood,
and of course I didn't do any follow up on it.
I want to hear it right from the horse's mouth.
What is this and why is it? And you think
it's a game changer?
Speaker 3 (03:47):
Huh? I think it is. I think it is.
Speaker 8 (03:50):
Okay, so superwood, it's not. First of all, it's not
a particular kind of wood. Okay, okay, Just so everybody knows.
It's a process, and it has been developed by a
company called invent Wood. They are basically a research firm
that has gotten funding for this because the data has
shown such such great results, and it's essentially now for
(04:15):
a while, we've been playing around with wood, all right,
chemically playing around with wood, molecularly playing around with wood.
There's a company from several of several years ago called
Thermary that I've touted and talked about, where you basically
take wood and you bring it through a heavy heat
and steam process and you can burn off a lot
(04:38):
of the carbohydrates inside the structure of the wood, and
as a result, you can take species of wood that
you normally wouldn't subject to outside weather and make it
essentially termite proof, bug proof, and water resistant.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (04:56):
Now, this company has taken that concept and taken it
several steps further. First of all, they start by taking wood,
regular old wood, and they boil it in a couple
of very specific chemicals, the kind of chemicals that you
take wood and you boil it in to start making
paper pulp, you know, like just Okay.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Then then and what.
Speaker 8 (05:20):
That does is it takes out a kind of cellulose
in the wood called hemi cellulose and uh, and it
leaves all these voids inside the wood. And that's been
the problem in the past. Nobody's known what to do
with that. But these guys have figured out that. Then
if you take that product and you put it under
intense heat and intense pressure, you can actually get the
molecules that are left in those voids to bond together. Okay,
(05:45):
and they compress this wood. Now, imagine taking let's say
a you know, like a two inch thick piece of wood.
By the time it's gone through the super wood process,
it's down to about a half an inch thick. Same wood, okay,
pressed down to it half an inch. But here's what
you get. You get Class A fire resistance, no rot,
(06:07):
no pests, and you get this is the most important
thing you get a densified timber material that is eighty
percent lighter than steel and five times stronger.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Wow, that's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
It's wood and it looks like would you couldn't tell
the difference if you looked at it.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
No, No, it is wood.
Speaker 8 (06:28):
Wow, it's would it actually ends up looking you know,
I mean, And that's why I said any species can
undergo this, And of course some species are going to
be stronger than others in the end. But the point is,
in the end, it's it's cutable, it's shapeable, it's it's fixable,
I mean, and it's wood.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Well, that changed the way you build a house Now
with studs every sixteen inches, could you go to twenty
or twenty four?
Speaker 8 (06:54):
Were we already already in many parts of the country
go to twenty four inches on center with studs if
we put a sheathing material a panel on the outside
of the wall to support them. But yes, yeah, it's
this kind of stuff. It's we're talking about the kind
of stuff where where now structural engineers will be specking
out smaller wood beams to replace what before could only
(07:18):
be handled by a piece of eyebeam steel.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
And you say, not only is it five times stronger.
But it's lighter than the wood when it started.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
It's it's light. It's eighty percent lighter than the style. Unbelievable.
Speaker 8 (07:32):
Eighty percent lighter than the steel, and so the steel
that it will replace. And so yes, right now, this company,
you can go to the website inventwood dot com. You
can see they've started out phase one. What they're doing
is they're rolling out a product that is going to
be essentially decking and sighting material. Okay, imagine you're living
(07:54):
in Los Angeles right up against an open space. Okay, wildfires,
receptable home and you now, thank you, science can go
ahead and say, now I'm gonna put wood siding on
my house. Why, ma'am, Because it's Class A fire resistant.
This material burns at about the same temperature as brick
(08:20):
and concrete. Oh my god, this is incredible. All right,
But a couple of things popped to mind. How long
is the process? Is it safe to have in your house?
And how expensive is it? Okay, so the process of
treating I mean, I have no idea how long it
takes for them to get this wood ready, but I
don't believe it takes very long Okay, just have taken
(08:41):
it through it Is it safe to have in your house?
It's wood, there's nothing, nothing has been added to this. Wow, okay,
that's the thing. What would the miracle here is that
they have found a way of taking away the softest,
most vulnerable parts of a tree, of a wood, a
piece of wood, compressing the rest of it back together
(09:04):
so that it holds together. It's just wood. There's nothing
toxic about it. It is essentially a carbon capture sink.
And so the manufacturing process, I mean, you could literally less.
And here's the thing that I was looking at as
I was reading one of these articles about it. They're
now experimenting with being able to press this stuff into
(09:26):
various shapes. Imagine this ten fifteen years from now. Because
it's eighty percent lighter than steel, and because it's more
economical than going to like carbon fiber or aluminum. Imagine
you're driving around in a car whose frame is essentially
made out of superwood.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
That's unbelievable. All right, we gotta take a break. You
stay with us, sure, Hey, welcome back.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
I want to ask you if it's waterproof, and if
it is, maybe they can start making boats out of
wood again.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
How cool will that be? All right?
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Dean sharpers, whether it's the House was We'll come back
and talk to him about this. Don't forget tomorrow five
point thirty, the big enoughnnouncement where we're taking the trip
next year. You got to be here tomorrow at five
thirty p m.
Speaker 7 (10:06):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Dean Sharp is with us the House Whisper every Saturday
morning six am to eight am, and then every Sunday
morning nine am until noon. And we're talking about this
brand new wood. This is called super wood, that's stronger
than steel, lighter than steel, fire resistant, and this could
be an absolute game changer. And Dean Sharp is back
(10:34):
with us. Dean, welcome back.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
To the program. Thank you sir, thank you. Hey, I
noticed this.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
I'm you know, speaking of wood when you know back
ten fifteen years ago. I remember when I went to
home Depot, I needed a couple of two by fours
for a project whatever. I just picked them up and
take them away. And now when I go to actually
I didn't go to Home Depot, but now when I
went to at a different hardware store, I got to
go through their wood to find and put it on
the floor in fire. Something you know that doesn't have
(11:02):
either knots in it, or it's warped or anything. It
doesn't seem like the quality of wood on the shelves
is what it used to be.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
It's not.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
It's not. Where do you find quality wood. I don't
mind paying a higher price for it, but where do
you find your quality wood? You don't have to go
and sift through under eight you know two by four
is to get nine.
Speaker 3 (11:21):
Well, that is a really good question.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Most of the time, when we are doing a full
blown project, we're not buying wood from the big box stores, okay,
because they're getting they're getting the best value that they
can out of that lumber for the average homeowner who's
doing DIY stuff. Sure, right, but you also noticed that.
And I'm not going to cut you off there.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
But back in the old days, I never ever had
a damp or a wet piece of fencing or two
by four.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
But now I run into it all the time.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
I constantly pick up wood at some of these big
stores that it looks like it feels like it was
cut like you know, an.
Speaker 8 (12:00):
Hour ago, that might have been but there's a reason.
I'll explain why that is exactly. That is the case,
and it's actually, in one sense a good thing. Okay,
it's a very good thing in one sense. So anyway,
to answer your first question, we will normally contract with
a major private lumberyard. Okay, that's where that's where the
lumber from most houses come from, a right, most projects.
(12:23):
So we're going to contract with a major lumber yard,
and they're under contract to give us good material because
guess what we get to do if if they give
us junk, we get to set that stuff aside and
send it back.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
Ah.
Speaker 8 (12:35):
Okay, but it's more expensive than the stuff that you're
buying at the depot. But we can get that cost
pretty close because we're buying, you know, one hundred thousand
board feet all at one time, right, so we get
the volume discount. But more importantly, to answer your question,
because everybody has experienced this, anybody who's worked with wood
or gone to the big box store and you're like, yeah,
(12:56):
you've noticed that. And you also notice, like the edges
of a lot of two by fours are Chamford right,
They're not rounded, they're rounded on it, they're not always square.
This is simply because this is simply because we are
no longer the majority. I'm not gonna get myself into
trouble by making an absolute statement, but the majority of
the US lumber market is now an agricultural product. We're
(13:20):
growing these trees, These trees are younger than ever before.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Now that is a.
Speaker 8 (13:25):
Good thing because for the most part, he says, not
wanting to get one hundred emails, for the most part,
we are no longer clear cutting major forests, old growth forests. Okay,
you know what perfect wood is. Perfect wood is right
in the center of an old cedar or a four
(13:45):
hundred year old redwood tree. And unfortunately, the houses that
you and I grew up around here in southern California,
that were built in the twenties and the thirties, that's
exactly the trees that gave their lives to make those
craftsman bungalows here in La those were I mean, when
the wood that you're milling out of a center of
a tree is by definition already about a foot or
(14:09):
two away from the outside edge of the tree, there
are no knots, because a knot is a knot in
a piece of wood is nothing more than the intersection
point of a branch. All cannot okay, that's where a
branch intersected. So we are cutting down more and more
young trees that were growing and managing in forests essentially
for this purpose. So about about seventy eight percent of
(14:34):
the US lumber market is an agricultural product now, no
longer cutting down old growth for it. It's agriculture. It's
literally farming.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Okay.
Speaker 8 (14:43):
But the trees are smaller because they're younger. And that's
another reason coming back to superwood or the superwood process,
because again, this is not a species of wood, it's
a process of making any kind of wood stronger. Coming
back to technologies like this, this is going to be
able to take eventually even the crappiest even saw dust
(15:03):
at the mill and turned it into viable structural lumber
for houses that's stable and dimensionally even and and good
stuff in man.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Man, If I I don't, I'm gonna do some research
because if that company goes public, man, that could be
you know, a windfall.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
Oh yeah, yeah, it's gonna it's gonna change. Now.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Is it strong enough or is it water resistant enough
to start to make boats again out of wood? I
know they They did that, you know, for many, many
many centuries, and then when fiberglass came around, they stopped
doing that. But is it is it strong enough and
water resist enough to start making.
Speaker 8 (15:40):
Boats out of I as far as I know, it's
still gonna need coatings on the outside, but relative to
the wood that we used to make boats out of,
absolutely a massive improvement, massive improvement on water resistance. I
mean we're making we're making open exposed decking material and
siding out of the stuff. Okay, so exposing it to
(16:01):
the elements is not a problem now, whether or I'm
sure we're gonna have to code it if we're just
gonna sit it in the water. It's also very heavy,
but heaviness doesn't matter because you know, we make ships
out of steel, right, that's about displacement and why a
thing floats is not that it floats on its own.
But it's very heavy, very strong, very sturdy stuff. And
I have no doubt, I have no doubt. I mean,
(16:21):
if we're thinking about making car frames out. Oh, by
the way, aerospace is looking at this, oh my god,
the internal wing structure because of how light it is
relative to its strength. Right, So getting back to you know,
like spruce, goose planes and stuff like that. Uh, that's
fantastic there at least where the superstructure is made out
(16:41):
of wood.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
It's all possible.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
And you know what, this isn't one of those things
like you know the Chinese. Uh, you know, if we
have anything made over there, you know, like floor mats,
they make floor mats all day and then the you know,
Chinese will rip off the you know, the actual design
and then go sell it on their own. But this
is something that they can't do that with. They need
lumber and they need that you know, that sort of technology.
(17:03):
And I think it's tougher to do. Oh, it is
tougher to do. And now eventually we'll be everywhere. Sure,
I mean, if it's viable and it succeeds, of course
it'll be everywhere. But the cool thing is it means
it'll be here, and it means that the US can
stand on its own feet in guards lumber industry. Right now,
we import about thirty percent of our lumber from Canada,
(17:25):
and so it's going to be an interesting mix here
in North America. But the point is we'll be able
to utilize worse lumber than ever and make it better
than the best stuff that we've got. Right now, that's great.
Real quickly, Belly and I had this. Belly and I
had this discussion. Did you see that little tiny it's
sort of like industrial complex or a little tiny office
(17:47):
space where that nut in palm spring blew up the
fertility fertility clinic.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
I didn't see it.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
It looks like literally, I mean it looks like, you know,
like maybe eight hundred square feet, uh, you know, and
it was blown apart. And they said the rebuild that's
gonna be twelve million dollars, And I thought, man, I
think that sounds like an insurance play. You know, twelve
million dollars. Couldn't you build an entire mini mall for
twelve million dollars?
Speaker 8 (18:15):
You could come really close, really, I mean really really close.
I mean there's got to be land value issues in there.
Two dollars. Yeah, that's a lot.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
It was that thing? Yeah, made out of gold.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
All right, let's what's the invent wood dot com.
Speaker 8 (18:30):
Invent wood dot com is the website. Super Wood is
the concept. That's what they're pushing there. All right, gang,
you got to go look at this. I mean, we're
going to see skyscrapers in the future made out of wood.
There's already I think it's in Minneapolis. There's a twenty
eight story skyscraper that's already been built out of a
wood superstrong.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
Oh my god, man, the technology is so great, you know,
with with the three D printing of homes and now
with this super wood. I love that that we're we're
living through this kind of you know, of inventions.
Speaker 8 (19:02):
It's really cool because you know, we haven't seen exactly
what's gonna take the lion's share of it. But I
just love the fact that there are options these days,
and they're all in a race together, and and somebody,
somebody's gonna end up, you know, turning the corner and
making the new sea change technology for homes in the future.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
That's why we track all of it. Did you mention
anything about like the termite aspect of things.
Speaker 8 (19:24):
Oh yeah, this stuff is so dense, Mike. It's so
dense that that bugs have no chance, plus the stuff
that they want to eat. Okay, that this is the
interesting thing. Imagine a piece of termite ridden wood, right,
It's got all those channels and holes cut through it.
That's essentially what the process the first part of the
(19:45):
process takes out of this wood anyway you're taking out,
you're taking out all the carbs and the sugars, okay,
and then in all those voids that are left inside
the wood. Then they put it under this gigantic heat
thermal press and smash it all together, so there are
no voids left over. So there's literally nothing. I mean,
even if a termite decided I'm gonna bore my way
(20:05):
through this, there's no point.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
There's no food in there for them. Now that is great.
It's literally nothing that they want at that point.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
And how long do you say it's gonna before you
see it being used massively on a home scale.
Speaker 8 (20:17):
Well, this company, as far as I know right now
on limited release with certain builders, they are ready this
year to start providing sighting and decking. So based on
how that goes, we'll start to see the structural stuff
come right after it. That is great, Budd, I appreciate
you coming on. We'll talk to you next week. All right, guys,
all right, thanks man.
Speaker 1 (20:37):
Dean Sharp The Housewist for Saturday morning six am to
eight am.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
On Sunday nine am until noon.
Speaker 7 (20:44):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (20:50):
It is the Conway Show. Kiki is with us.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
To find out about the trip Conway Trip at gmail
dot com. We're gonna be sending them an email telling
what the tree is, but it's not gonna be coming
from Conway Trip at gmail dot com.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Is that correct?
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Yes, it won't be coming from that email. But in
your headline that it comes out when the oh my gosh,
the header, yes, it's going to say Conway Trip. It
will have something that says some kind of iteration of
Conway Trip. So keep your eye out for that, and
(21:26):
that'll be the email that we send out.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
And where will it be coming Conway Trip at what?
At Mailchimp?
Speaker 5 (21:33):
It might come from a Mailchimp email, but the the
topic line is going to say Conway trip.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Okay, but we don't know what the email drip is
gonna be. Yes, yes, okay, all right, excellent, Kiki, thank
you for doing that.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
You're welcome.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
I appreciate it. All right, that's very exciting. Tomorrow five
thirty we're gonna reveal where the trip is and you
guys are.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
All gonna you know, you're gonna go. You're gonna go.
You're gonna, you know.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Open up those bank accounts. We're gonna have a good time.
We're going on a trip. And again, I don't know
if I'm ever gonna do it again, so it might
be a one off and you'll remember it. It'll be
a great trip, and you'll tell your family and your
friends and they'll be all jealous that you went and
they didn't go, and they'll kick themselves in the ass
they didn't go. And you'll have pictures forever to show
(22:18):
your you know, kids and your grandkids. Hey, well with
this idiot from KFI on a trip and we had
a great time, really really good time.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
That's gonna be fun. I want to miss out on it.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Tomorrow five thirty pm right here on KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
All right.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Thrifting, A lot of people are into this. A lot
of people like to go to these thrift stores, buy
some stuff and either sell it on eBay or just
wear it themselves. But this is a big, big trend, Hugh.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
A growing number of consumers are feeling the pinch when
they shop, saying the sticker shock is getting out of hand.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
But it's also getting out of hand at these thrift stores.
You could use be able to buy a pair of
pants for two bucks and that's like got it off three.
Speaker 9 (23:06):
Why are they pricing underwear like you wear them on
the outside of your clothes.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
Soaring prices renewing interest in secondhand shopping.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
I do this for six.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Fifty No way, no way, no way. Yeah, she got
it for six dollars and fifty cents.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
No way.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
Way.
Speaker 4 (23:25):
For some, getting thrifty means saving money without sacrificing quality
or style.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Wow, no way, yeah way.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
According to a recent report by Capitol One Shopping Research,
ninety three percent of Americans bargain hunt online for second
hand items.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Wow no way.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
Well, one third of all clothes and apparel purchase last
year were secondhand. And get this, thrift store shoppers save
a whopping one seven hundred and sixty dollars per year.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
