Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Chris is the five h five News worth five drink
on all right at five o'clock every single day. We've
been doing them for about, I don't know, fifteen years
or so. We give everybody here an opportunity to lay
some stories on us that otherwise we may have missed
or stuff we should concentrate on more. And it's become
(00:31):
a huge favorite, huge favorite over the last fifteen years
doing this. It's great. All right, let's start with belly oh, BELLYO.
What's going on out there?
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Well, if you're planning a trip to Seal Beach anytime soon,
be prepared to pay a bit more to park near
the sand. The California Coastal Commission just gave the green
light for Seal Beach to raise sorry to raise parking
rates at three of its popular beach lots, First Street,
eighth Street, and tenth Street. The hourly rate will jump
from two to three dollars, and the daily max is
(01:00):
going up from ten dollars to fifteen dollars. After six pm,
it will be a flat four dollars to park. The
change needed Coastal Commissions approval since these lots are a
sit on state owned public trust land where the city leases.
City officials say the new prices are still in line
with what you'd pay at nearby beaches in LA and
(01:20):
Orange County.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
All right, so everything is going up unfortunately. Yeah, that sucks.
It's probably still a pretty good deal after it's not
too bad. Eight pm or six pm.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
It's four box six.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
That's a great deal. Yeah, flat fee, all right, So
go park there.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Just wait till six to go to the beach.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah, hang out, you know, sit in your car and
I don't know, do whatever.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Fifteen daily max isn't horrible.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
No, that's a great deal. Yeah, I don't think that's
all right. That's a great story, Belly.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Thanks t Bones Crozier.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
What's going on out there, Bob.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
New research has hidden knee damage is surprisingly common in
young adults. Study publish in osteo Arthritis and Cartilage says
nearly sixty six percent two thirds of thirty three year
olds had cartilage damage in their knees. More than half
of them had small bone growths years or even decades
before joint problems were expected to develop people study were
(02:14):
not athletes, they weren't people with previously known injuries or
any of that stuff, and they all reported having little
or no knee pain or symptoms at all.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
The factor most associated with the early joint problems is.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Let me guess, being on your phone too long.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Diet, body weight, Oh it is, Oh it is.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
People blowing their knees out.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Researcher say, ostio authritis, which is often thought as an
old person's disease, maybe silently forming decades earlier than previously
regiously believed.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Well that sucks. So you can have knee damage and
not even know it.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
So, yeah, it's and apparently it's popping up more and
more in younger people the early mid thirties.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
You know, I have friends who are all in their
late fifties early sixties, and they all played basketball or
tennis on Sundays and I don't. And every one of
them have been in the hospital with cartilage or ligaments
or knee pain or knee replaced. Other people playing pickleball
hip replaces.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Yeah, right, Yeah, the rate of people getting acl tears
is skyrocketing and other knee injuries because of pickleball.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
And here's a tip for you kids out there. If
you're I don't know, ten, eleven, twelve years old, you
want to be a doctor when you grow up. You
want to be a neck doctor? All right, go into
that field. I don't know what. I don't know if
that's called, but you, but you got to be a
neck doctor because everybody is looking at their phone all
day long. You are absolutely right, and our necks are
(03:42):
going to be on fire. You could charge eight hundred
bucks an hour and standing and you know, lying around
the block. Wrists too, do yeah, Ryan, yeah, tunnel yeah,
all that stuff. Man. I saw today. I held the
door open for a young lady who was leaving the
building when I got here today, and she was on
her phone, and she's probably in the in the vicinity,
you know, she's in the ballpark, like five or six
(04:03):
steps away, close enough where I could hold the door
open for her. And I'm holding the door open and
she's on her phone and she stops and I said,
scrow it the door. The door's closing. You know, I'm
not going to stand here all day and wait for you.
You're a big door guy too, for people, Oh yeah,
big big door guy. And then she just stood there
(04:23):
and I walked by her never said anything. It's like
I didn't even exist. I felt bad, a little bummed.
All right, Angel, what's going on in the world.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Well, you know how pickleball is all the ring.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Oh yeah, and pickleball players want pickleball emojis. So currently
the country's twenty million plus players have to do this.
When they want to use a pickleball emoji. They're texting,
they've got to throw down a pickle emoji and then
a ping pong emoji.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Wow. What a pain of the is it is?
Speaker 6 (04:57):
And it can be confusing.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
Y're like, whoa, what's this right?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
You know, so we got to get on that. You know,
people like their.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
Emojis absolutely, and somebody is teach me too. It's a
company that helps users book private lessons and activities. They've
created their own pickleball emoji. It's a squarehead racket with
a perforated yellow ball. And what they've done is they've
started a change dot org petition for Apple so that
(05:28):
Apple will include it in their pickleball or include their
pickleball emoji in their iOS nineteen.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Okay, that's cool deal. I thought they had one though
for pickleball. I think they do. I think, let me
put in pickleball.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Apple's response was, we'll see what we can do.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Wait a minute, I thought they had one. I think
I have, and let me put pickleball and see what
comes up here. All right, I'm going to send this.
Speaker 6 (05:52):
I looked in mine and it just has a ping
pong and a pickle.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Okay, I've typed in pickleball. Oh yeah, it comes up.
I have one.
Speaker 7 (06:00):
It does.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, it's a picture of an eggplant and a guy's head.
Speaker 6 (06:04):
Oh yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
That's it.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
I just checked.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
I just checked the petition a couple of minutes ago,
and they had a whopping sixty signatures. So they're a
little bit of ways from.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Our whole lives are now being controlled by the pickleball crew.
Step foosh, what's happening out in the world, Bob, Well,
you and I both like some taco bell right, Yeah,
I love it.
Speaker 8 (06:35):
They launched a new item called the Crispy Cheese Triple
Stacked Taco Wow. This new take on the qunchy taco
features a warm flower tortilla layered with a second tier
of melton, mozzarella, pepper jack, and cheddar cheeses, followed by
a third layer of seasoned beef and spicy branch sauce,
all wrapped, wrapped in a crispyet cheese exterior. I'm looking
(07:01):
at it right now online. It comes with a certificate
ten percent off Saint Joe's er. That's odd, and that'll
sell between only four and five bucks. It looks good,
you know.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
I like it. Taco Bells, the chicken nuggets, SOPs or
nuggets whatever, those things.
Speaker 8 (07:18):
People are sleeping on those because I don't think people
know that they have them in there are bomb.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Yeah, they're really really good.
Speaker 9 (07:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Yeah. And the nice thing about Taco bell is every
time you get that portion cup of cheese, it's piping hot. Sure,
it is great.
Speaker 8 (07:31):
I don't know how they do that, man, every time,
no matter what, hot, hot hot melts the top of
the container.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
That's right, yeah it does. Yeah, and it's great. And
my daughter, thank god, she hates that cheese. So I
always get double so you get oh you get hurt pors.
Oh yeah, my big ass tongue goes right in that
portion cup at the end.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Cheese.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I shouldn't. My doctor said not to. My doctor said,
if you have one more piece of cheese, your heart
o load.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Doesn't you took us? Say not to us?
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Well, a lot of my body says no, A lot
of my body says no more cheese. But I plow
through my problem with foods like I had a problem
with peanuts. Not an allergy, just couldn't handle them. And
I decided I'm gonna eat peanuts for three straight months
and plow through that.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
You'll show them that's right habituation.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
There it is. It didn't work.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
But again, you have diverticulitis.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Oh I got I'm a mess. I have a ninety
eight year old. The first time I had diverticulitis, I
was fifteen, and the doctor said, God, we don't see
this until people are in their sixties. And it's from
being nervous, you know. I was like a nervous kid,
you know, not good. Yeah. I remember going into to
get a bury am enema where they fill your took
(08:47):
us up with like milk. It's like a white substance,
and they put it like a gallon in there enough
where you can't handle it anymore, and then they take
photos of it. And then once you're done, there's a
bathroom right next to it, and you'd run it to
the bathroom and explode, and I remember doing that and
it sounded like the troops hitting Normandy in there.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Enjoyed dinner. Everyone.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
All right, Twins away. There are fourteen sets of twins.
We're graduating together from California high schools. Fourteen sets of twins.
That's incredible.
Speaker 10 (09:41):
I didn't realize there are so many sets until just
last week.
Speaker 11 (09:44):
We got like a paper in our classes same we're
invited to this meeting last week and it was fourteen
sets of twins in our graduating class.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (09:51):
I only knew like three or four before I went
to the meeting, and it was like, I mean, I've
seen them all my classes, but I did not know
they were twins. It was kind of crazy. I think
we found out that mostly we are all fraternal twins.
I know that there's like a very small amount of
people who are identical, so that's yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
The identical twin thing is kind of cool. I like
the identical twins moved strange. But whenever I know that
parents had a set of twins and one's a boy
and one's a girl, I always ask hey, are they identical?
And nine ten times are like, uh no, no, they're different,
not knowing that. I know that crazy, like move strange.
(10:32):
But do we have any twins working here? Do we
have any twins aka five cross over the years? Say again,
do anyny twins working here? I don't think we did.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
I feel like there's somebody. Well, Aaron, our old editor,
her husband was a twin. Oh that's right, Mary, who
is now with the other former editor here, Emily.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
Yeah, they were news editor twins, right.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
They were news otter twins. And they're dating brothers who
are twins. Yes, from Detroit, Detroit, Detroit City. The bars
are hopping in, the girls are giddy. Remember that song
raw Raw for day twa my Home, Sweet Home, I'm Home.
Speaker 10 (11:17):
Like really strange.
Speaker 12 (11:18):
But three of our sets of twins went to elementary
school together, so that was trity cool.
Speaker 10 (11:24):
And when our story came.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Out about the fourteen I never get tired of is
when identical twins will tell stories on how they fooled
people like oh really, yeah, well you know I went in,
I took my sister's math test for okay, and nobody
knew that you were not her? No, No, it was great.
It was fun. We all had a lot of time, fun,
(11:45):
fun time. It's good.
Speaker 10 (11:46):
That was trity cool. And when our story came out
about the fourteen sets of twins, I had like everyone like,
I didn't even know you were a twin. Like, that's
just the first thing that everyone says.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Didn't know you were a twin.
Speaker 10 (11:57):
I didn't even know. I thought you guys were just
friend or I thought you're just.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
So it's like, no twins, twin humor.
Speaker 10 (12:06):
Text about life I like, and it realized twins. I
thought your revolution really close family times.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Yeah, the should be a book. They should write a
book called Twin Stories. And every chapter is exactly the same. Yeah,
we shared clothes and we'd fooled our math teacher. I
went out with my sister's boyfriend to dinner once he
didn't know, you know. And then the next chapter we
shared clothes. My brother's math test I went out with
(12:33):
his girlfriend. She didn't know. Chapter three, we share each
other's clothes. God almighty.
Speaker 10 (12:42):
Well, I had an idea because I went to elementary.
Speaker 11 (12:45):
School with at least three of them four, but I
was kind of unaware of how many kind of.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Grew to you in high school you know why twins
are more popular today than they were back in the
nineteen forties, fifties or sixties. I'll tell you what, because
there wasn't there was no such thing as ultrasound. And
so if mom had a baby, she had a baby,
and you know, she felt a little uncomfortable, but she
(13:11):
had the baby, and then like three hours later, another
baby would slide out and they didn't know that there
was twins in there because they had no ultrasound. Yeah,
and a lot of times that baby was in physical trouble,
either not breathing or you know, not well, and they
would take that baby and discard that baby.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
Leslie in sales has a similar story about that.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
That's right. She was what they call a trash can baby,
and you know, she had her sister was born, and
then like six hours later she was born and they
didn't know that, and she was very close to death,
and they went to throw her in the trash can
and she moved and they saved her and revived her,
and now she's one of the better salespeople in radio.
That's why that's a huge success story. Yeah, huge. You know,
(13:57):
typically we'll have lens I knew a couple of them.
So I knew about eight or.
Speaker 11 (14:01):
Nine of them, and so I was thinking about eight
or nine is a lot.
Speaker 10 (14:04):
We do have graduation grade every year.
Speaker 11 (14:07):
And when we were putting the grid together, we started realizing, wait,
there's more than just eight or nine.
Speaker 10 (14:12):
There's ten. Oh wait, there's eleven.
Speaker 11 (14:14):
Let's get all the kids from the senior class for
the same birthday.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
There's actually fourteen fourteen sets of twins? Is that in
one high school?
Speaker 11 (14:21):
And so that was really an eye opening result when
we saw those numbers, because we've never thought about fourteen
sets for twins on this campuships from the senior class alone,
let alone, you know, the whole school.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Fourteen sets of a lot? Who cares, My eyes are crushed. Sorry,
didn't mean to borre you. Gang. Weight Watchers files for bankruptcy.
Mccammack will talk about that. That's a big deal. Weight
Watchers was hot. It was the best way to lose weight.
And they got food and you'd eat that food and
you'd lose weight. You'd feel great. And then I don't
(14:56):
know if something happened mcgovy or what the other one
one of these weight loss ozempic ozempic mongov.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
We'll Govy gov.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
What happened to me ass?
Speaker 7 (15:09):
Is that?
Speaker 8 (15:10):
Another one?
Speaker 2 (15:10):
What happened to my happened to me? Ass? Another one? No,
where's me ass? Where happened to be? What happened to he? Ass?
Is another one?
Speaker 9 (15:19):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demayo from KF
I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Catholic pope is an American. That is a cool deal,
all right, the pirates, the Pittsburgh let's talk about We're
gonna talk about weight Watchers. Weight Watchers has a lot
of competition now, lots of it. Was it owned by
Oprah Winfrey at some point? I think she owned weight Watchers.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
She bought stock, she did, Yeah, she bought like a
lot of stock.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
But one she's a spokesperson for a while she.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Was on the board.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
She bought stock, and then she was on the board,
and then she sold her stock.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
I think, like in twenty twenty or twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
I heard it differently. I heard she was a spokesperson
and she sold all her stock and got out because
she went the injection way instead of the food way.
Oh and she had to bail because that was not
a good look for Oprah Winfrey. That's I heard. Maybe
(16:24):
both stories are right? Is that possible?
Speaker 7 (16:26):
No?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
All right, weight Watchers it's filing for bankruptcy. They are
a lot. They got a lot of debt going on,
lots of debt, a lot of it.
Speaker 7 (16:37):
WeightWatchers. It's not a diet from the commercials once seen everywhere.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
I love tread. You know, everybody was on weight Watchers.
My dad was on it, my mom was on it.
Everybody had weight Watchers. It was such a great name,
it was such a great reputation. And what happened to.
Speaker 7 (16:55):
The icon who championed the brand and the lifestyle. Weight
Watchers is a major cultural force that went beyond the
fitness space.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Do you have a minute?
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I'm very busy with Time sesstive work.
Speaker 7 (17:06):
You can tell by the reflection in your glasses that
you're entering points in the weight Watcher.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
So com But with the I'm very busy with what
is that? Is that from the wrong? Missing? Is that?
Speaker 4 (17:17):
What's that movie on the fitness space?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
All right? What is this? I probably should ask Moe Kelly,
he would know, But what movie is this from?
Speaker 12 (17:25):
Do you have a minute.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
I'm very busy with Tom sesst to work.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
You can tell by the reflection in your glasses that
you're entering points into weight Watcher.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
So com you know, that's probably like an Adam Sandler
movie or Chris Rock that's classical up time machine or
something like that.
Speaker 7 (17:43):
That's great, But with the rising popularity of g LP
one drugs like ozembic and mogovi, the demand for weight
watchers traditional diet programs took a hit.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Yeah it's over. It's over, and I can get a
shot and you don't have to eat that crappy food
your whole life with no flavor, no butter, no salt,
no taste. It's just like bulk.
Speaker 7 (18:05):
And now the company has filed for Chapter eleven bankruptcy
in a bid to shed it's more than a billion
dollar debt and reposition itself in the industry. Tara Coomont
is Weight Watchers President and CEO.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Who's that?
Speaker 7 (18:17):
Tara coomont Is Tara comont Tara coomont is WeightWatchers President
and CEO.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
How's that going.
Speaker 12 (18:24):
We are going through this transaction to strengthen our financial
foundation for weight Watchers moving forward, so that we can
innovate and compete and continue to invest in our business.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
The company has been around for more than six decades,
revolutionizing and destigmatizing dieting while bringing its food point counting
method to millions. Since they realized that diet and any
sort of behavioral change and very much a community based program.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Do you ever do that crozier? You ever get on
a weight Watchers?
Speaker 4 (18:52):
No?
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Do you ever do that stuff? Oosh? Are we ever
on a weight Watchers? I did not. Yeah, I didn't either.
It's the type that needed it. Yeah. I was always
a pretty thin guy. And that's a rap on which
crew members I can ask about their diets. According to HHR,
that's rap. That's a wrap. Oh good for you. That
(19:16):
is a according to the memo I got from a chart,
that is Max. I've hit Max.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
Don't go there, I've hit Max.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Oprah Winfrey became the face of weight Watchers in twenty
fifteen and sat on the board for nine years before
stepping down last year, sending shares plummeting. She revealed two
years ago she was taking a weight loss drug.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Oh oh, She revealed two.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Years ago she was taking a weight loss drug, telling
People magazine, I'm absolutely done with the shaming from other
people and particularly myself.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
She does look good, though, She's lost a lot of weight,
that Oprah Winfrey, but there's still that stink of you know,
she'd made a lot of money off weight Watchers, while
I think taking that shot on the side, maybe maybe
that's true.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Twenty twenty three, weight Watchers joined the prescription drug weight
loss business, acquiring a telehealth company to help its customers
get GLP on drugs.
Speaker 12 (20:08):
In order for the results of medication to really be
sustainable and healthy, they are much better served within a
holistic and a comprehensive model of care, and that is
what we provide.
Speaker 7 (20:21):
But healthcare industry analyst Stephanie Davis believes Weight Watchers was
late to the game on weight loss drugs.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Yeah, and people want it quick, you know, people want
with a govy and Goovy and cousinetics at least ozempics.
You can take the shot at noon and I think
by five o'clock you lose like thirty pounds. Is that
how that works? Yeah, yeah, somebody that's pretty quick. And
(20:47):
so people want the fast wave everything fast. We want
to get to New York quicker, so we all fly
instead of driving or take the train. We want our
food faster, so you know, we crap just because it's
fast and we need it fast, and we wanted to
lose weight quickly. We didn't want to spend a year
doing it. You know, if you could do it in
three months or two months or an hour, that's the
(21:08):
way we want it. We want it quick. Everything just in.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
The future of weight Watchers may look less like a
diet club and more like a virtual clinic. So what
does this mean, I guess in the short term, so
the CEO tells us it means the three point four
million members they can.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Still I love be asking people that they're in a club.
You know, Oh, you got my bawling league. Yeah, I'm
playing my basketball league. What are you in? I'm in
a diet club.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
What use their meetings? They're still work their program that
everything stays the same for them, and they're going to
focus over the next forty five days on innovating, getting
rid of that billion dollars in debt, and thinking of
itself as a telehealth really expanding the telehealth part of
this business. So they're optimistic actually looking forward, trying to
get out from under that debt and figure out how
(21:52):
to how to find their way in this very rapidly
changing weight loss landscape.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
There you go, belly.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Let me ask you a question. Were you ever in
a ball bling league growing up? Did you bowl?
Speaker 4 (22:02):
I was not, but my mother and my father both were.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Is that right? Did they have their own balls?
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Really? Wow? Somebody had a big Denver money. Huh oh. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
I spent a lot of my youth at the bowling alley.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Isn't the bowling Alley one of the greatest memories.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
I had a blast the arcade and going into Oh
my gosh, I loved it.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
And the crappy food but for some reason it tastes
so good that night.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Great the pizza.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, and just walking around. You have the freedom to
walk around because nobody's gonna, you know, grab you and
and take you out of there. You know, you can
run around the aisle, the different lanes.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
It's all good memories.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Did you I didn't know I have about bowling league.
But in the summer we went to uh what was
it called summer camp. It wasn't a camp. It was
like a rec center. And one of the things that
they offer was bowling every Wednesday, like at noon, and
I look forward to that. Man, I can't tell you.
Going bowling with my friends and Cleveland every Wednesday. That
(23:01):
was the bomb. That was great. Nobody cared who won
who lost. Just to get out there at you know, nine, ten, eleven,
twelve years old with that bowling ball and your shoes on,
you felt like a million bucks.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
I thought you were pretty good.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
No, it was not great. But and they all smelled
the same. All bowling alleys smelled great. They all smelled
the same, you know, like athlete's foot.
Speaker 9 (23:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Sorry, I grew up in for a few years in
southern Maryland and they're bowling. Well, the whole county only
had one stoplight, so the only entertainment basically was a
roller skating rink and a bowling alley. Okay, and the
bowling alley had one side was the regular bowling. On
the other side was the duck pin bowling. Oh that's
great for the for the kids, the kids. Oh yeah,
(23:43):
but it wasn't just for kids. The duck everybody did
duck puck. I didn't know that, yeah, man, but I
loved it.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
The smell was great, the just the being there and
you know yet, but by the way, back then you
had to write down your own score. Oh yeah, yeah,
and you had to figure that out. You had to
do math. Now it's it does it for you? You know,
do nothing.

or stuff we should concentrate on more. And it's become
(00:31):
a huge favorite, huge favorite over the last fifteen years
doing this. It's great. All right, let's start with belly oh, BELLYO.
What's going on out there?
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Well, if you're planning a trip to Seal Beach anytime soon,
be prepared to pay a bit more to park near
the sand. The California Coastal Commission just gave the green
light for Seal Beach to raise sorry to raise parking
rates at three of its popular beach lots, First Street,
eighth Street, and tenth Street. The hourly rate will jump
from two to three dollars, and the daily max is
(01:00):
going up from ten dollars to fifteen dollars. After six pm,
it will be a flat four dollars to park. The
change needed Coastal Commissions approval since these lots are a
sit on state owned public trust land where the city leases.
City officials say the new prices are still in line
with what you'd pay at nearby beaches in LA and
(01:20):
Orange County.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
All right, so everything is going up unfortunately. Yeah, that sucks.
It's probably still a pretty good deal after it's not
too bad. Eight pm or six pm.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
It's four box six.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
That's a great deal. Yeah, flat fee, all right, So
go park there.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Just wait till six to go to the beach.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah, hang out, you know, sit in your car and
I don't know, do whatever.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Fifteen daily max isn't horrible.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
No, that's a great deal. Yeah, I don't think that's
all right. That's a great story, Belly.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Thanks t Bones Crozier.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
What's going on out there, Bob.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
New research has hidden knee damage is surprisingly common in
young adults. Study publish in osteo Arthritis and Cartilage says
nearly sixty six percent two thirds of thirty three year
olds had cartilage damage in their knees. More than half
of them had small bone growths years or even decades
before joint problems were expected to develop people study were
(02:14):
not athletes, they weren't people with previously known injuries or
any of that stuff, and they all reported having little
or no knee pain or symptoms at all.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
The factor most associated with the early joint problems is.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Let me guess, being on your phone too long.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Diet, body weight, Oh it is, Oh it is.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
People blowing their knees out.
Speaker 5 (02:34):
Researcher say, ostio authritis, which is often thought as an
old person's disease, maybe silently forming decades earlier than previously
regiously believed.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Well that sucks. So you can have knee damage and
not even know it.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
So, yeah, it's and apparently it's popping up more and
more in younger people the early mid thirties.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
You know, I have friends who are all in their
late fifties early sixties, and they all played basketball or
tennis on Sundays and I don't. And every one of
them have been in the hospital with cartilage or ligaments
or knee pain or knee replaced. Other people playing pickleball
hip replaces.
Speaker 5 (03:12):
Yeah, right, Yeah, the rate of people getting acl tears
is skyrocketing and other knee injuries because of pickleball.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
And here's a tip for you kids out there. If
you're I don't know, ten, eleven, twelve years old, you
want to be a doctor when you grow up. You
want to be a neck doctor? All right, go into
that field. I don't know what. I don't know if
that's called, but you, but you got to be a
neck doctor because everybody is looking at their phone all
day long. You are absolutely right, and our necks are
(03:42):
going to be on fire. You could charge eight hundred
bucks an hour and standing and you know, lying around
the block. Wrists too, do yeah, Ryan, yeah, tunnel yeah,
all that stuff. Man. I saw today. I held the
door open for a young lady who was leaving the
building when I got here today, and she was on
her phone, and she's probably in the in the vicinity,
you know, she's in the ballpark, like five or six
(04:03):
steps away, close enough where I could hold the door
open for her. And I'm holding the door open and
she's on her phone and she stops and I said,
scrow it the door. The door's closing. You know, I'm
not going to stand here all day and wait for you.
You're a big door guy too, for people, Oh yeah,
big big door guy. And then she just stood there
(04:23):
and I walked by her never said anything. It's like
I didn't even exist. I felt bad, a little bummed.
All right, Angel, what's going on in the world.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
Well, you know how pickleball is all the ring.
Speaker 6 (04:35):
Oh yeah, and pickleball players want pickleball emojis. So currently
the country's twenty million plus players have to do this.
When they want to use a pickleball emoji. They're texting,
they've got to throw down a pickle emoji and then
a ping pong emoji.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Wow. What a pain of the is it is?
Speaker 6 (04:57):
And it can be confusing.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
Y're like, whoa, what's this right?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
You know, so we got to get on that. You know,
people like their.
Speaker 6 (05:04):
Emojis absolutely, and somebody is teach me too. It's a
company that helps users book private lessons and activities. They've
created their own pickleball emoji. It's a squarehead racket with
a perforated yellow ball. And what they've done is they've
started a change dot org petition for Apple so that
(05:28):
Apple will include it in their pickleball or include their
pickleball emoji in their iOS nineteen.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Okay, that's cool deal. I thought they had one though
for pickleball. I think they do. I think, let me
put in pickleball.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Apple's response was, we'll see what we can do.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Wait a minute, I thought they had one. I think
I have, and let me put pickleball and see what
comes up here. All right, I'm going to send this.
Speaker 6 (05:52):
I looked in mine and it just has a ping
pong and a pickle.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Okay, I've typed in pickleball. Oh yeah, it comes up.
I have one.
Speaker 7 (06:00):
It does.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Yeah, it's a picture of an eggplant and a guy's head.
Speaker 6 (06:04):
Oh yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
That's it.
Speaker 8 (06:09):
I just checked.
Speaker 6 (06:10):
I just checked the petition a couple of minutes ago,
and they had a whopping sixty signatures. So they're a
little bit of ways from.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Our whole lives are now being controlled by the pickleball crew.
Step foosh, what's happening out in the world, Bob, Well,
you and I both like some taco bell right, Yeah,
I love it.
Speaker 8 (06:35):
They launched a new item called the Crispy Cheese Triple
Stacked Taco Wow. This new take on the qunchy taco
features a warm flower tortilla layered with a second tier
of melton, mozzarella, pepper jack, and cheddar cheeses, followed by
a third layer of seasoned beef and spicy branch sauce,
all wrapped, wrapped in a crispyet cheese exterior. I'm looking
(07:01):
at it right now online. It comes with a certificate
ten percent off Saint Joe's er. That's odd, and that'll
sell between only four and five bucks. It looks good,
you know.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
I like it. Taco Bells, the chicken nuggets, SOPs or
nuggets whatever, those things.
Speaker 8 (07:18):
People are sleeping on those because I don't think people
know that they have them in there are bomb.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Yeah, they're really really good.
Speaker 9 (07:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Yeah. And the nice thing about Taco bell is every
time you get that portion cup of cheese, it's piping hot. Sure,
it is great.
Speaker 8 (07:31):
I don't know how they do that, man, every time,
no matter what, hot, hot hot melts the top of
the container.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
That's right, yeah it does. Yeah, and it's great. And
my daughter, thank god, she hates that cheese. So I
always get double so you get oh you get hurt pors.
Oh yeah, my big ass tongue goes right in that
portion cup at the end.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Cheese.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
I shouldn't. My doctor said not to. My doctor said,
if you have one more piece of cheese, your heart
o load.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Doesn't you took us? Say not to us?
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Well, a lot of my body says no, A lot
of my body says no more cheese. But I plow
through my problem with foods like I had a problem
with peanuts. Not an allergy, just couldn't handle them. And
I decided I'm gonna eat peanuts for three straight months
and plow through that.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
You'll show them that's right habituation.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
There it is. It didn't work.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
But again, you have diverticulitis.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Oh I got I'm a mess. I have a ninety
eight year old. The first time I had diverticulitis, I
was fifteen, and the doctor said, God, we don't see
this until people are in their sixties. And it's from
being nervous, you know. I was like a nervous kid,
you know, not good. Yeah. I remember going into to
get a bury am enema where they fill your took
(08:47):
us up with like milk. It's like a white substance,
and they put it like a gallon in there enough
where you can't handle it anymore, and then they take
photos of it. And then once you're done, there's a
bathroom right next to it, and you'd run it to
the bathroom and explode, and I remember doing that and
it sounded like the troops hitting Normandy in there.
Speaker 4 (09:07):
Enjoyed dinner. Everyone.
Speaker 9 (09:12):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
All right, Twins away. There are fourteen sets of twins.
We're graduating together from California high schools. Fourteen sets of twins.
That's incredible.
Speaker 10 (09:41):
I didn't realize there are so many sets until just
last week.
Speaker 11 (09:44):
We got like a paper in our classes same we're
invited to this meeting last week and it was fourteen
sets of twins in our graduating class.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (09:51):
I only knew like three or four before I went
to the meeting, and it was like, I mean, I've
seen them all my classes, but I did not know
they were twins. It was kind of crazy. I think
we found out that mostly we are all fraternal twins.
I know that there's like a very small amount of
people who are identical, so that's yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
The identical twin thing is kind of cool. I like
the identical twins moved strange. But whenever I know that
parents had a set of twins and one's a boy
and one's a girl, I always ask hey, are they identical?
And nine ten times are like, uh no, no, they're different,
not knowing that. I know that crazy, like move strange.
(10:32):
But do we have any twins working here? Do we
have any twins aka five cross over the years? Say again,
do anyny twins working here? I don't think we did.
Speaker 5 (10:44):
I feel like there's somebody. Well, Aaron, our old editor,
her husband was a twin. Oh that's right, Mary, who
is now with the other former editor here, Emily.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
Yeah, they were news editor twins, right.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
They were news otter twins. And they're dating brothers who
are twins. Yes, from Detroit, Detroit, Detroit City. The bars
are hopping in, the girls are giddy. Remember that song
raw Raw for day twa my Home, Sweet Home, I'm Home.
Speaker 10 (11:17):
Like really strange.
Speaker 12 (11:18):
But three of our sets of twins went to elementary
school together, so that was trity cool.
Speaker 10 (11:24):
And when our story came.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
Out about the fourteen I never get tired of is
when identical twins will tell stories on how they fooled
people like oh really, yeah, well you know I went in,
I took my sister's math test for okay, and nobody
knew that you were not her? No, No, it was great.
It was fun. We all had a lot of time, fun,
(11:45):
fun time. It's good.
Speaker 10 (11:46):
That was trity cool. And when our story came out
about the fourteen sets of twins, I had like everyone like,
I didn't even know you were a twin. Like, that's
just the first thing that everyone says.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Didn't know you were a twin.
Speaker 10 (11:57):
I didn't even know. I thought you guys were just
friend or I thought you're just.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
So it's like, no twins, twin humor.
Speaker 10 (12:06):
Text about life I like, and it realized twins. I
thought your revolution really close family times.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Yeah, the should be a book. They should write a
book called Twin Stories. And every chapter is exactly the same. Yeah,
we shared clothes and we'd fooled our math teacher. I
went out with my sister's boyfriend to dinner once he
didn't know, you know. And then the next chapter we
shared clothes. My brother's math test I went out with
(12:33):
his girlfriend. She didn't know. Chapter three, we share each
other's clothes. God almighty.
Speaker 10 (12:42):
Well, I had an idea because I went to elementary.
Speaker 11 (12:45):
School with at least three of them four, but I
was kind of unaware of how many kind of.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Grew to you in high school you know why twins
are more popular today than they were back in the
nineteen forties, fifties or sixties. I'll tell you what, because
there wasn't there was no such thing as ultrasound. And
so if mom had a baby, she had a baby,
and you know, she felt a little uncomfortable, but she
(13:11):
had the baby, and then like three hours later, another
baby would slide out and they didn't know that there
was twins in there because they had no ultrasound. Yeah,
and a lot of times that baby was in physical trouble,
either not breathing or you know, not well, and they
would take that baby and discard that baby.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
Leslie in sales has a similar story about that.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
That's right. She was what they call a trash can baby,
and you know, she had her sister was born, and
then like six hours later she was born and they
didn't know that, and she was very close to death,
and they went to throw her in the trash can
and she moved and they saved her and revived her,
and now she's one of the better salespeople in radio.
That's why that's a huge success story. Yeah, huge. You know,
(13:57):
typically we'll have lens I knew a couple of them.
So I knew about eight or.
Speaker 11 (14:01):
Nine of them, and so I was thinking about eight
or nine is a lot.
Speaker 10 (14:04):
We do have graduation grade every year.
Speaker 11 (14:07):
And when we were putting the grid together, we started realizing, wait,
there's more than just eight or nine.
Speaker 10 (14:12):
There's ten. Oh wait, there's eleven.
Speaker 11 (14:14):
Let's get all the kids from the senior class for
the same birthday.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
There's actually fourteen fourteen sets of twins? Is that in
one high school?
Speaker 11 (14:21):
And so that was really an eye opening result when
we saw those numbers, because we've never thought about fourteen
sets for twins on this campuships from the senior class alone,
let alone, you know, the whole school.
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Fourteen sets of a lot? Who cares, My eyes are crushed. Sorry,
didn't mean to borre you. Gang. Weight Watchers files for bankruptcy.
Mccammack will talk about that. That's a big deal. Weight
Watchers was hot. It was the best way to lose weight.
And they got food and you'd eat that food and
you'd lose weight. You'd feel great. And then I don't
(14:56):
know if something happened mcgovy or what the other one
one of these weight loss ozempic ozempic mongov.
Speaker 4 (15:05):
We'll Govy gov.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
What happened to me ass?
Speaker 7 (15:09):
Is that?
Speaker 8 (15:10):
Another one?
Speaker 2 (15:10):
What happened to my happened to me? Ass? Another one? No,
where's me ass? Where happened to be? What happened to he? Ass?
Is another one?
Speaker 9 (15:19):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on Demayo from KF
I am six forty.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Catholic pope is an American. That is a cool deal,
all right, the pirates, the Pittsburgh let's talk about We're
gonna talk about weight Watchers. Weight Watchers has a lot
of competition now, lots of it. Was it owned by
Oprah Winfrey at some point? I think she owned weight Watchers.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
She bought stock, she did, Yeah, she bought like a
lot of stock.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
But one she's a spokesperson for a while she.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Was on the board.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
She bought stock, and then she was on the board,
and then she sold her stock.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
I think, like in twenty twenty or twenty twenty one.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
I heard it differently. I heard she was a spokesperson
and she sold all her stock and got out because
she went the injection way instead of the food way.
Oh and she had to bail because that was not
a good look for Oprah Winfrey. That's I heard. Maybe
(16:24):
both stories are right? Is that possible?
Speaker 7 (16:26):
No?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
All right, weight Watchers it's filing for bankruptcy. They are
a lot. They got a lot of debt going on,
lots of debt, a lot of it.
Speaker 7 (16:37):
WeightWatchers. It's not a diet from the commercials once seen everywhere.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
I love tread. You know, everybody was on weight Watchers.
My dad was on it, my mom was on it.
Everybody had weight Watchers. It was such a great name,
it was such a great reputation. And what happened to.
Speaker 7 (16:55):
The icon who championed the brand and the lifestyle. Weight
Watchers is a major cultural force that went beyond the
fitness space.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Do you have a minute?
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I'm very busy with Time sesstive work.
Speaker 7 (17:06):
You can tell by the reflection in your glasses that
you're entering points in the weight Watcher.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
So com But with the I'm very busy with what
is that? Is that from the wrong? Missing? Is that?
Speaker 4 (17:17):
What's that movie on the fitness space?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
All right? What is this? I probably should ask Moe Kelly,
he would know, But what movie is this from?
Speaker 12 (17:25):
Do you have a minute.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
I'm very busy with Tom sesst to work.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
You can tell by the reflection in your glasses that
you're entering points into weight Watcher.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
So com you know, that's probably like an Adam Sandler
movie or Chris Rock that's classical up time machine or
something like that.
Speaker 7 (17:43):
That's great, But with the rising popularity of g LP
one drugs like ozembic and mogovi, the demand for weight
watchers traditional diet programs took a hit.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Yeah it's over. It's over, and I can get a
shot and you don't have to eat that crappy food
your whole life with no flavor, no butter, no salt,
no taste. It's just like bulk.
Speaker 7 (18:05):
And now the company has filed for Chapter eleven bankruptcy
in a bid to shed it's more than a billion
dollar debt and reposition itself in the industry. Tara Coomont
is Weight Watchers President and CEO.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Who's that?
Speaker 7 (18:17):
Tara coomont Is Tara comont Tara coomont is WeightWatchers President
and CEO.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
How's that going.
Speaker 12 (18:24):
We are going through this transaction to strengthen our financial
foundation for weight Watchers moving forward, so that we can
innovate and compete and continue to invest in our business.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
The company has been around for more than six decades,
revolutionizing and destigmatizing dieting while bringing its food point counting
method to millions. Since they realized that diet and any
sort of behavioral change and very much a community based program.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Do you ever do that crozier? You ever get on
a weight Watchers?
Speaker 4 (18:52):
No?
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Do you ever do that stuff? Oosh? Are we ever
on a weight Watchers? I did not. Yeah, I didn't either.
It's the type that needed it. Yeah. I was always
a pretty thin guy. And that's a rap on which
crew members I can ask about their diets. According to HHR,
that's rap. That's a wrap. Oh good for you. That
(19:16):
is a according to the memo I got from a chart,
that is Max. I've hit Max.
Speaker 4 (19:22):
Don't go there, I've hit Max.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Oprah Winfrey became the face of weight Watchers in twenty
fifteen and sat on the board for nine years before
stepping down last year, sending shares plummeting. She revealed two
years ago she was taking a weight loss drug.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Oh oh, She revealed two.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Years ago she was taking a weight loss drug, telling
People magazine, I'm absolutely done with the shaming from other
people and particularly myself.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
She does look good, though, She's lost a lot of weight,
that Oprah Winfrey, but there's still that stink of you know,
she'd made a lot of money off weight Watchers, while
I think taking that shot on the side, maybe maybe
that's true.
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Twenty twenty three, weight Watchers joined the prescription drug weight
loss business, acquiring a telehealth company to help its customers
get GLP on drugs.
Speaker 12 (20:08):
In order for the results of medication to really be
sustainable and healthy, they are much better served within a
holistic and a comprehensive model of care, and that is
what we provide.
Speaker 7 (20:21):
But healthcare industry analyst Stephanie Davis believes Weight Watchers was
late to the game on weight loss drugs.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Yeah, and people want it quick, you know, people want
with a govy and Goovy and cousinetics at least ozempics.
You can take the shot at noon and I think
by five o'clock you lose like thirty pounds. Is that
how that works? Yeah, yeah, somebody that's pretty quick. And
(20:47):
so people want the fast wave everything fast. We want
to get to New York quicker, so we all fly
instead of driving or take the train. We want our
food faster, so you know, we crap just because it's
fast and we need it fast, and we wanted to
lose weight quickly. We didn't want to spend a year
doing it. You know, if you could do it in
three months or two months or an hour, that's the
(21:08):
way we want it. We want it quick. Everything just in.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
The future of weight Watchers may look less like a
diet club and more like a virtual clinic. So what
does this mean, I guess in the short term, so
the CEO tells us it means the three point four
million members they can.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Still I love be asking people that they're in a club.
You know, Oh, you got my bawling league. Yeah, I'm
playing my basketball league. What are you in? I'm in
a diet club.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
What use their meetings? They're still work their program that
everything stays the same for them, and they're going to
focus over the next forty five days on innovating, getting
rid of that billion dollars in debt, and thinking of
itself as a telehealth really expanding the telehealth part of
this business. So they're optimistic actually looking forward, trying to
get out from under that debt and figure out how
(21:52):
to how to find their way in this very rapidly
changing weight loss landscape.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
There you go, belly.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Let me ask you a question. Were you ever in
a ball bling league growing up? Did you bowl?
Speaker 4 (22:02):
I was not, but my mother and my father both were.
Speaker 2 (22:05):
Is that right? Did they have their own balls?
Speaker 4 (22:07):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Really? Wow? Somebody had a big Denver money. Huh oh. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (22:15):
I spent a lot of my youth at the bowling alley.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Isn't the bowling Alley one of the greatest memories.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
I had a blast the arcade and going into Oh
my gosh, I loved it.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
And the crappy food but for some reason it tastes
so good that night.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Great the pizza.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Yeah, and just walking around. You have the freedom to
walk around because nobody's gonna, you know, grab you and
and take you out of there. You know, you can
run around the aisle, the different lanes.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
It's all good memories.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Did you I didn't know I have about bowling league.
But in the summer we went to uh what was
it called summer camp. It wasn't a camp. It was
like a rec center. And one of the things that
they offer was bowling every Wednesday, like at noon, and
I look forward to that. Man, I can't tell you.
Going bowling with my friends and Cleveland every Wednesday. That
(23:01):
was the bomb. That was great. Nobody cared who won
who lost. Just to get out there at you know, nine, ten, eleven,
twelve years old with that bowling ball and your shoes on,
you felt like a million bucks.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
I thought you were pretty good.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
No, it was not great. But and they all smelled
the same. All bowling alleys smelled great. They all smelled
the same, you know, like athlete's foot.
Speaker 9 (23:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Sorry, I grew up in for a few years in
southern Maryland and they're bowling. Well, the whole county only
had one stoplight, so the only entertainment basically was a
roller skating rink and a bowling alley. Okay, and the
bowling alley had one side was the regular bowling. On
the other side was the duck pin bowling. Oh that's
great for the for the kids, the kids. Oh yeah,
(23:43):
but it wasn't just for kids. The duck everybody did
duck puck. I didn't know that, yeah, man, but I
loved it.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
The smell was great, the just the being there and
you know yet, but by the way, back then you
had to write down your own score. Oh yeah, yeah,
and you had to figure that out. You had to
do math. Now it's it does it for you? You know,
do nothing.
