Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's k IF. I am six forty and you're listening
to the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Hey, ooh,
trash night for me. I like that, so reset the house.
I don't know why I get involved.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
I like it. I enjoy.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Todd Spitzer is the district attorney in the beautiful County
of Orange right here in southern California. A little mischief
going on there in Santa Anna, and I called him
up and said, hey, can you come on and talk
about it?
Speaker 2 (00:24):
He goes, can do, and he's with us. Todd Spitzer,
how you, Bob.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
I'm great, Tim, great to be on, but I wish
there wasn't on under these circumstances.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
Yeah right, Well, if these circumstances weren't going on, then
maybe we wouldn't have you on anyway.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
So how about that?
Speaker 4 (00:40):
How about that?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
All right?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
So what's going on in sant Anna? Do you have
a feel for who showed up and who was throwing crap?
Speaker 4 (00:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (00:49):
So we have a very similar situation in Orange County
that Los Angeles has. We have the activists showing up.
In fact, of the arrests that have been made by
the San Anna Police Department about two thirds are from
individuals outside of our county. So they're coming in from
other places, and they have an agenda. They're talking not
just about immigration, they're talking about You've got the anarchists here,
(01:11):
you have people talking about gaza, you have people talking
about green and solar and anti tesla. I mean, it's
this is equal opportunity. But I would just tell you know,
I think, Tim, you probably don't know this about me,
but my family was a victim of the riots. Back
in August of nineteen seventy. We had Spitzer Brothers Furniture
(01:32):
on Whittier Boulevard distance of Atlantic, Yeah, and it was
burned to the ground by a Molotov cocktail and a
lot of my grandfather and his brothers were put out
of business. And I would just tell you, Tim, what's
going on in Los Angeles has been evolving and has
been an issue for the last fifty years. You know,
(01:52):
I was a LAPD. I was in the civil unrest
events in nineteen ninety two after the Broaden King verdict.
Of course, we had George Floyd in May of twenty eighteen.
And I just think it's too simple.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
It's just too.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Simple when you live in La like I have my
entire life, and I was a high school teacher in
East LA. I just know too much about Los Angeles,
and I will just tell you this is about a lot.
This is a powder keg of feelings that have been
going on for fifty years. It's the reason we're a
sanctuary state. That's not by accident. Think about this. A
(02:30):
lot of people tim who are being swooped up in
these ice rates are not just criminals. They are the
home depot guys looking for work day labors. They were
promised certain things, whether we agree with it or not.
The politics of California established certain expectations, and now you
(02:50):
have a president with a national perspective saying that this
is not okay. And I totally support what the president's doing.
I just think we need to understand not just what's
happening now, but what is going to be the aftermath
of this for California. I live here, you live here,
I grew up here. You did too. I'm just saying,
(03:13):
there's going to be no one is talking about how
we got here and where we're going to be when
this is over. Now.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I think you're right, and we've been talking about for
the last five days here on this show, that the
politicians have been lying to these people for fifty years
and saying, you know, come to the country, you can
raise a family, you can get a job, nothing will
ever happen to you, and it's all a lie.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Well, but the lie is in the eye of the beholder.
So it might have been from a national perspective on
illegal immigration, it might have been true, but it was
never enforced. You know, Reagan even gave moratoriums and gave
people who are here illegally a pass. All I'm trying
(03:57):
to say is is that the policies when I was
in the legislature, Karen Bath and her party and Gavin
Newsom and his party created an environment that gave permission
for people to be hulims without consequence. So a lot
of people are in the street and they have a
very good reason to be upset, and they are protesting peacefully.
(04:21):
But what we're seeing and what we're reacting to are
all the people who have a chip on their shoulder.
I will tell you, having been around for fifty years
on this issue, there are people that are more than
willing to be arrested because it's important for them to
make a statement. But then on the other hand, they're
interspersed with a bunch of people who want to make
a statement just because they're hoodlums.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Right.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
And I see it, you know, in downtown LA, and
it's spreading, you know, San Francisco. But I've noticed in
Orange County it seems to be just in a very
small area of Santa Anna. Has it spread throughout Orange County?
Speaker 4 (04:56):
No?
Speaker 3 (04:57):
In fact, tonight there's right right where I have my office,
there's a congregation that the humbies are out, the police
are out, everybody's staging. It's right there at Civic Center
and Flower, San Anna Boulevard and Flower. It's right there
next to the Federal building. And that's been kind of
the focus for the last couple of nights. I mean,
(05:19):
I guess if you're asking me, why is it potentially
different in Orange County? I would say, yeah, everybody knows
that law enforcement here we don't mess around, right, everybody's
been saying that that's the image we have, and that's
what you get out of your elected officials, the sheriff
Don Barnes myself, and you get that out of our
police chiefs and law enforcement. But at the same time,
(05:43):
San Anne is a sanctuary city within a sanctuary state.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
But here's my feeling again. Tom Spins is with us
DA in Orange County. Here's my thirty thousand foot view
of this. In Los Angeles. Excuse me. The people there
are a ton of people who hate the cops. I've
lived in Orange County and it's exactly the opposite. The
people in Orange County they respect the cops. They're friends
(06:10):
with the cops. There's a different mentality down there in
Orange County than exists in La There is.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
But while we are a huge melting pot, we're different
melting pot, and a younger melting pot than the city
of Los Angeles. In decades of issues, like when I
was a high school teacher at Roosevelt High School in
East LA. I was there in the eighties, but in
the seventies and the sixties. Remember the Chicano Moratorium, that's
(06:39):
what it was called in nineteen seventy where Reuben Slizar
died that tear gas can in the Silver Dollar Bar.
I don't remember that, but he was a journalist for
the La Times. But the thing is that kids, young
people of color, but largely Hispanics, they weren't diverted to
(07:00):
the Vietnam War because they didn't go to college, because
they were never on a college track. They were told
you have to do labor kind of jobs, and that
was not an exemption during the Vietnam War. So the
protest was, you're treating us disparately and we're ending up
going off to war when white privileged people, quite frankly,
(07:20):
are going to have a college exemption. That was what
the protest was, You're treating us differently. We're not getting
the same education. We don't have the same social benefits
that other people do. Now, I will tell you, after
fifty years, this Hispanic population in the state has thrived.
There's still a lot of poverty, but you have a
tremendous number of very successful minority businesses who have done
(07:45):
phenomenally well here because the promises that the state has
given to all individuals. But I think the Hispanic community
in particular college enrollment, everything like that. My only point
is this. You know, when Pete Wilson won the governor
with top one eight seven, that was a wedge issue
that ushered him into Sacramento. But the fallout was tremendous
(08:09):
for decades and all I'm saying is, Hey, I am
a conservative Republican. I live in this state, and I
have coexisted with very good people who have worked really hard.
They were born here, they came here, maybe their parents
weren't here legally. But now you're you are separating families,
you are treating people, and people are afraid, and I listen, listen,
(08:33):
I am putting my foot down. We're going to prosecute
these looters and writers. There's no exception to me. I'm
hardcore about it. I was the only prosecutor in southern
California to prosecute protesters at a campus, a college campus.
I prosecuted the UCI students for the unrest there, the
failure to disperse. So I'm not worried about my reputation
(08:55):
and I don't have to be defensive about it. But
what I'm telling you is we have got to be
very sensitive about what is going on and what the
long term impacts are, and we should arrest every person
here who's here and lawfully who's committed crimes. Get those
people out of our country. You haven't served their time, whatever.
(09:16):
But we better be much more delicate when we're talking
about people who are not criminals, except their status that
they may be here unlawfully. That is a very sensitive
issue here in California. It's been an issue for decades.
I'm very sensitive to it because I've been around it
and involved in it for years. And all I'm saying
(09:38):
is when the President and the National Guard and everybody
leaves California, we're going to be in some very serious,
long term discussions that may be irreparable.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Right, But I'm glad that you're handling it that way,
and you know, differently than other cities, and I think
people appreciate that. And I think people understand that unless
you go out there and you punch a cop or
you throw something at a cop, that you do have
the right to stand on the sidewalk and yell and
scream at whatever you want and you're not going to
(10:10):
be arrested.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Well again, let's just go back to this. There's been
a culture that was developed when Karen Bass was Speaker
of the State Assembly, and she carried it into Los Angeles.
And that's why LA, sorry, I don't mean to be disrespectful,
is dirty. People are living in the streets, They're shooting
up everywhere, they're looting, they're causing havoc, and then when
you have a situation like this, it gets exploited because
(10:36):
people have been given permission for years, not just to
engage in civil disobedience like you know, Henry Throw, you
know Walden Pond kind of disobedience where you're you speak
out against your government. That's what's beautiful about this country.
But now they've crossed the line. And isn't it interesting
that Karen Bass herself has been saying and it has
(10:59):
taken a hard line, She's had to take a hard line.
But I wish I heard her say, and I wish
Governor Newsom would say, we are responsible for creating the
environment in which these people think they can get away
with this. That's right. We've had enough, which is why
we passed up thirty six.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, and I think that's what they need to hear. Todd.
I appreciate you coming on.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
We'd love to check back with you, and I know
you got a lot on your plate today, but thanks
for the ten.
Speaker 2 (11:25):

Speaker 4 (11:26):
You got it all right, Thanks man?
Speaker 1 (11:27):
All right, Todd Spitzer the DA with Orange County. I
didn't know that that was this family, the Spitzer family furniture.
I didn't know that his whole place is burned down.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I didn't know that. That's a long history.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
That that family has in LA And you know he's
a teacher, he was in he was an officer, and
now he's the DA in Orange County.

Poof.

I want to see the world too, but I want
to see you with somebody thirty years younger than me.
Genie goes poof, you're ninety.

going on in downtown Los Angeles from the former host
of The Tonight Show. That's a big guest, it's a
big booking belly. Oh congratulations, thank you. That's a big deal.

What's your I know you're not a serious guy, but
when you see what's going on downtown La, I'm sure
you have been onions of what's happening.
Speaker 4 (17:03):
Yeah, I mean I look like everybody else. You have
the right to protest something, sure, through it peacefully, you know.
I you know this the way you got to give
women credits. Remember that thing when Trump got elected. You
had ten thousand women protesting for women's rights down and
nobody broke anything, nobody arrested. They made their point, they
(17:27):
made the news. They got their point across some degree.
Some disagree, okay, but they did it peacefully, right.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
And they even had a creative title for it. What
was the title for that march do.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
You remember it's not I don't think it's somebody gets
play in the radio.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Oh okay, I remember I was. I was trying to
get you to say because I didn't. I was an
uncomfortable saying no.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
I was trying to get you to say.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
I wait, hold one second, Krozier, I think we can
use that term on the air.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
I got to ask Krozer, but can.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
You know that?
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Can I use that term that they women used to
call their march the pink pee march?
Speaker 2 (18:08):
Uh? You're asking me, okay, we can't do it.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
We can't do it because I'll say yes, yes, Right
then Brian's gonna come in.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Hey, what's going on with you?
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Man?
Speaker 2 (18:17):

Speaker 1 (18:23):
By by the way, I Bellio didn't hear the joke
because she was working her ass off on the show,
and then I told her the joke and I screwed
it up.
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Really well. It was shocked.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
Isn't that crazy?
Speaker 4 (18:35):
Yeah? Yeah? Well are you want it again?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (18:37):
But you know what, I don't know if you know this,
but comedy like diabetes skips a generation.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
You don't have to convince me.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Will you please tell it again for Bellio?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Okay, okay. Sixty year old couples walking along the beach
hold in hands, so why see something in the sand.
Turns out it's a Genie lamps that washed up the poof.
Genie comes out of work. What do you want? He says,
Oh God, I've always dreamed of traveling. Poof. Suddenly the
beach is strewn with brochures from Europe and Asia, Israel
(19:11):
over the place said. Then the husband gets a lamb,
he says, Genie says, what do you want? He says,
I also want to travel and see the world, but
I want to do it with somebody thirty years younger
than me. Genie goes, poof, you're.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Ninety, Belle. Would you hear it? This time? Got am mighty?
It's can you imagine doing? Can you do it one more?
Speaker 4 (19:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (19:36):
Jake?
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Can you imagine having Bellio in your audience where she's like,

Speaker 4 (19:43):
I've had I'm doing it with you. Jay.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
You know we're taking a cruise next year. I hope
you can join us. There's no money in it, but
i'd love to see you on the on the ship.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
That's my nightmare.
Speaker 3 (19:57):
You know.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
I'll tell your funny story. I'll tell you story when
I used to do at the Improv in New York City.
The ships would come in and then the guy it
was like, it's like the old age. They can make it.
We need a comedian for two nights on a cruise.
Who wants to do it?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
You know?
Speaker 4 (20:12):
And they paid like one hundred and fifty or two
hundred dollars. Huh. So the guy can says, we gotta,
we gotta. We got a cruise this weekend. It's three days.
It pays five hundred dollars. Five hundred dollars. What's the cruise?
I'm not sure, I said, Oh I was. I was
booked in like Buffalo and Bustalo in New Yorkers. I'm
not like one hundred and fifty. And I said five hundred.
But I don't want to can't. I couldn't do it.
(20:33):
So my friend tell my friend does it? He gets
on the boat. Something seems a little odd, but he
can't quite place it. Okay, So it goes to this statement,
we just fall to sleep. Things that they knock on
the door. Oh, shows in like a half hour d
eight o'clock. Turns out it's a gay nude cruise.
Speaker 7 (20:55):
And he's the entertainment. So it's drunk, just a bunch
of drunkards and they take your clothes up there, so
he did, but then he ran back to he locked
his and for the rest of the three days, the
guys pound there, come on out, just pound them on
the hilarious, hilarious.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
You know I I've seen photos of these cruises where
it's the you know, gay naked guy cruise, and it's not.
It's not the gay naked guy who's twenty one and
is in great shape because he just got out of
the Marines. It's a guy who's sixty five and weighs
three hundred pounds.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
Right, exactly exactly. It's hilarious eating. I'm not a cruise guy.
I don't I don't quite get it. It doesn't like
being stuck at a hotel with floats.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Probably not the best guy involve in a live read,
but I guess not the best guy to involve in
a live read.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
That's great day. Where are you going to be this Friday? Inside?
Are you gonna be at the Flappers?

Speaker 5 (24:18):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
It's Disneyland Resorts seventieth celebration, how about that? And it's
not a celebration without you, of course. So with all
the sites, all the laughter and fun, everyone is excited
about this seventieth celebration. KFI wants to give you a

Speaker 2 (24:59):
Some it's going to win.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
That might be you, all right, Looking at these protests,
it'll be a week Friday.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
That they've been going on.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
And this is why it's very difficult to protest anything anymore,
because there's too many psychologically sick people in society. If
the protest went down the way it should, it would
have been very effective. If the first day, you know,
five thousand people showed up, nobody threw anything of the cops,
(25:29):
nobody threw anything at the at the you know, at Ice,
nobody threw anything at the National Guard. You just showed
up with five thousand people and you all went home.
At eight o'clock or nine o'clock. Next day there would
be twenty thousand people and people would be looking at
that go wow. Twenty thousand people all got together and
(25:50):
protest it. Then they go home at eight o'clock. Everybody
get their dinner. Nobody threw anything of the cops, nobody
threw rocks, nobody threw fireworks. And then the next day
there'd be seventy five thousand people. Then the next day
there'd be one hundred and fifty, and you might get
up to a million people who feel very sympathetic or empathetic.
(26:13):
I screw those up to the people, to some of
the some of the people being deported, and then you
would have a million people on the streets of la
all downtown, all behaving, no graffiti, no fireworks, no rocks,
and it would have been a very effective protest. But
(26:36):
you can't do it anymore because there's there's too many
crazies amongst us, too many crazy people, and you see
them every day. You know, used to be on the
just on the streets of downtown LA. Now you work
with them, you know they're in your family. There are
your neighbors. People are crazy, and crazy people do crazy
(26:57):
crap like throw fireworks at cops. And that's when the
cops come in and they get heavy handed because they're
human beings and they have the right to put you
down when you throw fireworks at them, or rocks or
you know, molotov cocktails, whatever it is. These cops, every
(27:20):
one of those cops in downtown LA, that's their job.
Their job is to go downtown LA and have crazy
people yell at them for twelve hours. You imagine going
into work and somebody called you an a hole and
somebody called you a murderer and a Nazi all day long.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
It would wear on you. Eventually, it would break you.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I mean, you know, we're lucky that these cops seven
opened up on everybody and said, screw it, I'm going
to put these people down. Their job is twelve hours
a day sitting in the heat being yelled at over
the last six days. You don't think that's wearing on them.
They're human beings. Their dads, they're brothers, they're moms, sisters,
(28:11):
they have family, and they also might be sympathetic to
some of the people being deported, but when you start
throwing crap at them, they're done. So it's just the
idiots that ruin it for everybody. We've been there for
a long time. We're idiots ruined it for everybody. When
I was growing up in the San Fernando Valley and
(28:32):
I first started driving at sixteen, actually fifteen, but that's
a long story.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
I know.
Speaker 2 (28:39):
My dad was so dumb.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
My dad, my mom and dad got divorced, and my
dad and mom were like too lazy to drive the
kids back and forth, and they and my dad would
give me the keys. At fifteen, I had no permit,
no license, and no insurance, and I drove five kids
from one point in the valley to another. It's probably
about eight miles away, and I did it every day.
(29:03):
And my dad would give me the keys. If I
had to go to builders and Porium, just give me
the keys. Go, hey, go go down, give me a
two by four at builders Imporium. I was fifteen, no license,
no insurance.
Speaker 8 (29:13):
Hey, look you're gonna do what you Yeah, But that
was you know, in the seventies, right sort of maybe
maybe touching the early living up living for a number
of years in southern Maryland where it's like everybody has
to have a car because anything's so far away. It's
(29:34):
there's a lot of underage a lot of driving. Yeah,
that's right, but you remember this when farms.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
When you were younger, you would pull into a gas station,
you'd pump your gas. Then you would look at the
at the at the pump and you go, okay, it's
fourteen dollars and fifty eight cents. You would go in
and you would tell the guy I just was on
pump three fourteen dollars and fifty eight cents. Here's your money,
and then you'd leave. But because of a holes, people
(29:59):
would fill up their car and just leave. So now
you got to go in, give him a twenty or fifty,
pump your gas, then go back in, stand in line
with all the crazies at the gas station and wait
for your change. Because of a holes, A holes have
ruined everything in society. People ruin every Yeah, you could
(30:20):
back in the seventies, you could pick up a hitchhiker.
I'll bet you hitchhiked, did you.
Speaker 8 (30:25):
I remember my dad picking up pitchhikers with me and
my brother and the bassist son were like five and
pulling over the Miami Causeway and letting in two girls
and Daisy Dukes sitting in the back of the van
with us passing the joint around.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Oh yeah, I got memories, right. But you know what
stopped that.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
A guy would get the car and put an axe
through the driver's head. They're like, ooh, gotta stop that.
Or the driver was the one, right, and you don't
pick up hitchhikers anymore. Yeah, Or the driver molested and
then killed the women. That's it, and so you don't
pick up hitchhikers anymore. Well, when I was younger again,
you go into a restaurant. On restaurant, go hey, can
he's your bathroom? Yeah, sure, it's right down the hall.
(31:04):
Now it's just patrons only because some guy went in
with the baseball bat and busted it up. It's always
a holes that ruin everything, and a holes downtown ruined
this protest for the people who are sympathetic slash empathetic
to the people being taken out of gas stations and
out of car washes and out of factories and deported.
(31:28):
It's ruined by a holes. They've ruined everything. It's Conway Show.
