Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's k IF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am six forty and you're listening to The Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. It is the
Conway Show, Yes sir, yes, sir, And it is hotter
than hell outside. It is hotter than a witch's Oh
that's not that saying. Oh no, oh, you can't say
(00:22):
that word. Oh sorry, it is. Oh yeah, it's colder, right, Sorry,
I got that mixed up. I'm like my mom. My
mom used to say instead of I'm well he did
a one to eighty on that, my mom would say, oh,
he did a three sixty on that. Well, that means
he is exactly where he was before. But it is
hotter than hell out there today. It's in the nineties,
(00:43):
high nineties, and everybody's pissed. Everybody's angry. Bellio's on fire.
She's had it out with Krozier. I've had it. I've
had it running with her as well already. And I
went to a lunch today in Sherman Oaks or a
studio city, I don't know. It's somewhere on Venturbolord, and
(01:06):
everybody's honking and yelling, people picking up their kids from school.
They're pissed and it just does it to you.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
You know.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
I literally in the back seat of my car, I
have my winter jacket that I wore three nights ago
or two nights ago, when I went to Low's at
around nine o'clock at night. I put that jacket on
because it was sort of drizzling in the fifties. It
was cold, and I had that jacket on. Now it's
one hundred degrees. It's forty five degrees warmer than it
(01:38):
was the other day.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Forty five degrees. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
But it's going to go down and we're going to
get back into the sixties and seventies next week. So
that is sensational. You know, this is a two. They
can't call this a heat wave. If somebody calls it
a heat wave, tell them they're wrong.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
It's not. It's not a heat wave.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
You have to have three days in a row of
heat of one hundred degrees or more, three days in
a row, and we're not going to get there. We're
not going to get there, so it is it's not
a heat wave. Don't let people tell you it's a
heat wave.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
It ate He's not even close.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
So we're just it's just warm it's just warm, that's
all it is. All right, Let's let's start with there
was an accident on sunset. We're still trying to get
information on that. We'll have that for you, But let
me start here with Bill Gates is giving away billions
and billions and billions of dollars. And you might be
(02:43):
able to get in on this, and that's one of
the reasons we're playing it here. You might be able
to secure some of this dough out of Bill Gates Foundation.
They don with this guy.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Bill Gate, billionaire, revealed he is giving away ninety nine
percent of money and he's as his charitable Gates Foundation
will undergo a major change that will result in shutting
down by twenty forty five. His organization, of course, is
devoted to fighting poverty, disease, and inequity, and is now,
as a result of today's announcement, doubling its spending on
(03:16):
those causes to two hundred billion dollars over the next
twenty years. We had to begin with the question you
may be asking, why.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Now by deciding to spend all this money in the
next twenty years, we can get a lot more done.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
The original plan for the Gates Foundation established and funded
by Bill and Melinda Gates and backed by additional billions
from Warren. Buffett was to keep the doors open and
the dollars flowing for two decades after Bill's death. Instead,
as of today's announcement, the plan is to give away
virtually all of my wealth, Bill writes, over the next
(03:53):
twenty years. And if you couldn't guess, we're talking about
a lot of wealth.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
Super excited that that'll be over two hundred billion that
will give away during that time period, and that we'll
be able to save tens of millions of lives.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
And you're not going to miss it, No, I won't,
you know.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
I hope I'm still alive when we finished the twenty years,
but I'll save a little bit to be able to
buy Hamburgers as much as I need.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
The one hundred billion dollars the foundation has already spent
since two thousand has helped cut the rate of death
among children under five in half.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
This is a Phillips ultrasound, thanks.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
In part to its investments in new technologies like the
ones he showed us at his offices in Palm Desert, California.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
What are you proudest of?
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Well billion? Two hundred billion dollars. That's what I'm proudest of.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
Well, the work in vaccines would be the top of
the list, because at the turn of the century, kids
weren't getting vaccines for diarrhea pneumonia, and that's now saved
millions and millions of lives.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
So, well, you can get a vaccine for diarrhea that
can be cleared up with a shot.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I never heard that before in my life. Where do
you go to get that?
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Portable coolers and go anywhere. Drones help deliver those vials
where they're needed. But Gates now worries fewer people will
be getting them, not because of the distances, but because
of the governments involved.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
It looks like we'll be able to raise less money
now than we did in the past because the US
at least is tentatively not supporting buying those vaccines, and
other countries in Europe that have always been substantially more
generous are also cutting back.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
It sounds like, in part, you're doing this because you're
looking at the world and you're looking at this country
and they're doing less. So the Gates Foundation and other
foundations need to do more.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Okay, all right, we'll get to more of that, but
we finally have the information here on Whiskey A Go Go,
there's a dump truck that lost its breaks, at least
from what I gather from looking at it lost its
breaks coming down the hill towards Sunset, coming south towards
Sunset and slammed into Whiskey A Go Go, wiping out
(06:17):
at least a mail car or mail truck and a
few other cars as well, wipe them out.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Is this in Hollywood? A dump truck driver has plowed
into the iconic Whiskey A Go Go. Now live look
at the scene from mayor seven. The firefighters tell us
that five vehicles were involved in this crash on Sunset
and Clark Street. Some power also out in the area.
No one was hurt. Now, ironically, the band Boy Hits Car.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Boy Hits Cars playing there tonight, So this has got
to be a publicity stunt. Yeah, you know, they probably
paid this guy, you know, loosing his brakes on his
dump truck plowing there, and we'll take off. Boy Hits Car,
Boy Hits Car, all right, Usually car Hits Boy.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Boy Hits Car was at to play at the venue tonight.
It's not clear if the show will go on, will
of course, continue to follow this breaking news throughout the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Man, I am surprised nobody was hurt and nobody was killed.
That dump truck was filled with dirt. And you know
what dirt weighs. I mean for a cubic yard. You know,
just a cubic yard of dirt has got to be
over one thousand pounds. Let's see what a cubic yard,
A cubic Let's see cubic yard of dirt weighs, all right,
(07:37):
Let's see what it weighs, all right, a cubic cubic
twenty four. Let me see a cubic yard of work.
Let me see if soil ways about. They don't have
it here, of course they wouldn't have it here. Maybe
a misspellet, okay, three thousand pounds, three thousand pounds.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I was going to say, a ton, okay.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Three yards or right, three feet by three feet by
three feet a cubic yard three feet on all sides.
It's like a die, a big dice, right, the one
to two to three, four, five and six, all sides
are three feet.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
That weighs three thousand pounds.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
So in that dump truck there had to be probably,
I don't know, maybe twenty cubic yards. You could easily
have twenty cubic yards in a truck, maybe maybe fifteen.
So that's forty five thousand pounds and the breaks go out. Man,
are they lucky they dodged a bullet on this one.
(08:40):
This could have been horrendous, and instead we found out
that the band playing is Boy Hits Car, Boy Hits Car.
All right, thing dong, it's Friday. It's hotter than hell
out there, and people are angry. So here's the rule.
When it's hot, when it's in near one hundred degrees
or more, don't honk it anybody who has their window
(09:01):
That could get you killed. Don't honk your horn at
anybody with their windows down. That tells you they don't
have air conditioning, and that tells you they're angry as
f Don't honk, Adam, you could get shot and killed.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
That'll save somebody.
Speaker 7 (09:17):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I got a text from a cousin of mine. Hey, idiot,
dump trucks carry a maximum of fourteen cubic yards, not fifteen.
That's where I am where I'm corrected by my cousin
(09:44):
over one cubic yard.
Speaker 8 (09:45):
And you weren't kidding when you said Friday, and everybody's
on edge.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Everybody's crazy today. I think it's the heat. I think
it's a combination. The heat and nobody wants to be
to work because it's so nice out and everybody is
waiting for Whango tango where I'm at. That's where I'm going.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
Man, I'm already at Wango tango, Croze. I know your
family is going. Are you gonna be the head and down?
Speaker 8 (10:08):
No? Okay, Now I just got I just got the
notification that I just had my power washer delivered to
the house, so I'll be a little occupied tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Oh isn't that the best ps I you got? Three thousand?
You gotta be careful of that.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Man, you're gonna start eating up some pavement, you know,
chipping away at some pavement and bricks. The whole house
is gonna be that great electric right, yes, sir, Yeah,
that's the only way to go.
Speaker 9 (10:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Man, the gas one are nice. You can tool it around,
but they're more powerful. But but you know what, you're
always anchored by a hose, so why not be anchored
by a cord too, you know, so I don't the
gas ones.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
There's always water that gets into the engine, and they're
louder and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Yeah they are, they are louder. The electric ones are great. Yeah, yeah,
it's my day tomorrow. Power washing is great. You know,
you really get a sense that you're you're doing something
such a good feeling.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Yeah, you can see.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
The dirt and the grime and the moss and the
mildew come right off those stones.
Speaker 8 (11:05):
Put the little soap dispenser on the end, and you
can do all the windows from the outside, second floor.
Speaker 10 (11:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
The only problem you're gonna have and I've I've had
this in the past, and I'll warn you that you're
you're going to feel so great because you get the
mist of the of the water on you and and
you'll think you're cool. You know that your your body's cool.
But it's not gonna be You got to drink a
lot of water because you're gonna think you're cool. So
you don't drink any water, then you get dehydrated. So
(11:33):
the key to what power washer is you got to
just keep drinking water. It's like the key to drinking
in the desert. You can have a beer, but you
also have to have four glass of water after we counter.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
You don't want to end up in the hospital.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:46):
I saved up for this thing, so I'm ready.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Good for you. What kind you get?
Speaker 8 (11:50):
Green works?
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Oh that's good one.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they have I think they sell those
at Low's and Costco.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
I did a ton of research and this was the
best one that was good, that was ale and it
wasn't you know, two overly expensive.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah yeah, oh it's fantastic. And then all the attachments
you can go, Oh, it's the best.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
We have a We talked about the Whiskey of Go Go.
They're still trying to clean that up. But dump truck
lost its breaks and slammed into Whiskey of Go Go.
So that'll be a big news story because it's a visual.
You'll see all the pictures, the video of the helicopters
flying over it.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
That's a whole big deal. All right. Back to the
San Fernando Valley.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I don't think North Hollywood can handle any more bad news,
but they got some. They got some. There was a
guy that was killed in an apartment. Cops were called out,
They didn't find anything, and they split. Three days later,
they found the guy. And you may remember that story
where the guy came in through the skylight in an
(12:51):
adjacent apartment. Now that's how they're murdering us, coming in
like Batman or you know, Superman or I don't know,
Spider Man through the skylight into a vacant apartment, jumps
over the railing outside into another apartment, and kills the guy.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Allegedly.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Well, they found their guy and arrest has been made
by LAPD, so at least that we got that going
for us.
Speaker 11 (13:15):
According to police, they located this suspect at a local hospital.
LAPD detectives and the FBI Task Force believe he's the man.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Okay, FBI got involved. They're good, They're good. They got
their guy. And I'm going to take a wild guess
that this is not this man's first strike on his
rap sheet. I have a feeling we've seen this guy before,
or the cops have seen this guy before.
Speaker 11 (13:43):
Responsible for murdering an innocent person who lived here at
this apartment complex.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
And the people live in that complex are livid. They've
been complaining about doors being left open, homeless hanging out,
people walking around stealing stuff from cars in the parking garage.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
These people are really pissed.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Okay, they supposed to be caught the suspect. They caught
the person who who murdered Manny. All right, now, what
what about security?
Speaker 11 (14:08):
There's little relief tonight for residents at the Ashton Sherman
Village apartments, even as the LAPD announces they've apprehended the
suspect wanted for a murder at the complex. This neighbor
lives across.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The hall and you know what, I don't know what
the rents are, but I know where this building is.
You know that building on It's on Riverside near Fulton.
And if you're on Riverside and you cross Fulton going west,
this building is on the right hand side. It's right
near the La River where it starts really thin. It's
like a triangle building and then it gets really big
as it goes deeper and deeper towards the river. That's
(14:41):
the building that's where this happened.
Speaker 11 (14:44):
This neighbor lives across the hall from the victim, fifty
eight year old Menochet Hedra, who she knew as Manny.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
He kind of was like a father figure in a way.
It's kind of weird. But you don't get that.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Yeah it is. I'll give you that. I will give
you that.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah, in a way, it's kind of weird.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
But yeah, yeah, okay, all right.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I mean if you live in an apartment building and
you just sort of just moved in and you already
have a father.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Figure, you don't get that vibe from many men.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
That's right, that's right, because guys don't like to be that,
you know, Guys like to be in on the action
or move on. They don't like to be the the
father figure.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Just the pow.
Speaker 11 (15:24):
Lapd Valley Bureau detectives identifying the suspect is twenty seven
year old Eric Escamilla, seen here in surveillance video trying
a screwdriver to open doors in the building the night
of the murder.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
How about that guy rolling around your apartment building all right,
banging on every door if there's no answer, then takes
a screwdriver and tries to get in.
Speaker 11 (15:42):
Police say he accessed the victim's residence by entering through
a skylight in a vacant apartment and hopping over the
neighboring balcony.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Just a few days before the incident, My mom said,
lock your balcony door, and I laughed at her. Tell
me why. A few days later I find out Manny's
murdered through the balcony door.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
This could have been me.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
I live on the top floor, and as a single woman,
I always thought the best place to be is on
the top floor, away from you know, the bottom. It's
the hardest access. But I never thought, my skylight that
someone would go through it and murder someone.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Yeah, well that's where we are.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
And you always have to keep your balcony door locked always,
whatever floor you're on, you always have to keep it locked,
you know, you just it's easy to lock it. How
long does it take to lock a screen door or
a sliding glass door?
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Less than a second? Maybe a second at the most,
two seconds, I mean inevitably, they always say. And it's true.
Speaker 8 (16:40):
Locks are made for honest people, and if somebody wants
to get in, they're going to get in.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
But why are you making it easy?
Speaker 12 (16:45):
Now?
Speaker 8 (16:45):
Some times do we hear about criminals that will go
car to car to car to car, just looking for
one that's open.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Exactly you know what.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Detective King of all Detectives, Alan Hamilton, he's the chief
of detectives. You know, he told me one day, he said,
thirty eight percent of homes that are robbed, thirty eight
percent are guys who came through an unlocked door. Thirty
almost forty percent guy walks up doors open.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Game on. We're rolling around.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
Anybody who's next door app I'm sure has had people
in their neighborhood post. Oh, here's video of a guy
just trying doors.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Yep, I see it all the time. Yeah, all the time.
Got to keep the door locked. Where are you in
twenty twenty five where you're not locking doors?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
It's going on with you, man, oh man.
Speaker 7 (17:35):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
And there's an apartment building that is in trouble. And
that's the apartment building in Valley Village that's right near
Fulton and Riverside. Again, if you're on Riverside going west
once you cross Fulton, that's on the right hand side.
A lot of units there. It's been there for a
long time and it's got some really bad reviews like
(18:02):
this one. It says here this is May seventh of
this year. Here's a review for the Ashton what they
called Ashton Sherman Village Apartment Ashton Sherman Village Apartments in
North Hollywood night they called Valley Village. If you have
(18:25):
a piece of mail delivered to you, no HO is
on that address? All right here it is do yourself
favor and don't rent here. We pay about thirty eight
hundred dollars for a two bedroom apartment and it feels
like a scam. I'll be leaving as soon as my
lease is up. And then it goes on security. There
(18:47):
are ongoing concerns regarding the security in the building. Package theft,
package theft to become a persistent problem, which is incredibly frustrating.
The Convenience of delivery is negated by the anxiety of
potential loss. Transience ahoy, a lot of transient activity there
at that apartment building. And that says, if you're considering
(19:09):
moving to Ashton Village Apartments, don't be aware that these issues.
When IMT was managing this property, it actually felt like
a luxury building. Now it feels like a dirty ghetto
place to live. And then so the management wrote her back.
You know, if you leave a review, they can write
(19:30):
you back and it says we share your frustration. Over
this recent criminal activity. Sugar while incident, Tim.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
That's not appropriate to call her sugar. It's her name.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Oh okay, yeah, sorry, yeah, her name is a sugar.
M sorry And he said it says well, incidents at
our community are extremely rare. We unfortunately haven't been completely
excluded from the regional trend. And then another one. I
lived in Ashton Village apartments with my boyfriend and roommate
a year ago and the complaints we had with them
(20:10):
are the same complaints that residents have now if they
had just listened. And another one another property. That's all
you need to know. Another Essex property. The property was
built over a decommissioned hospital famous for being for being
a Sacred Heart hospital from the show Scrubs. Oh, I
(20:30):
didn't know that. You watch the show Scrubs. Yes, I
remember that hospital being there.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Exactly where it is. Yeah, that's that hospital. It was
in Scrubs. It runs along the river between the.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
La River and Riverside, right there at Fulton. Wow, I
didn't know that. I didn't know that. Well, that's where
it is, you know, I don't think it is near Fulton.
Let me I have to look this up. I think
i'm misstating the street there. Maybe it is Fulton. I
don't know, but I will tell you it is not
a cool hag. It's wits It.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
I don't know why I said Fulton. I knew I
was wrong, though, so I corrected it. It's wits It.
Sorry for people out there who are just tuning in.
It's not Fulton, it's wits It, wits It, and then
cold Water and then Fulton. I get wits It and
Fulton mixed up. So it's not Fulton. It's wits It
wits It. And Riverside at the Ashton Sherman Village apartments,
(21:29):
they are having problems, big problems. Here's some more huge,
huge problems. By the way, if you live there, you
wo know exactly what these people are talking.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
My mom said lock your balcony door, and I laughed
at her. Tell me why. A few days later I
find out Manny's murdered through the balcony door.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
This could have been me.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
I live on the top floor.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
And as a single, okay, And so it goes on
and on. Let me pick it up here, lady.
Speaker 9 (21:59):
Never I thought my skylight that someone would go through
it and murder someone.
Speaker 11 (22:03):
Residents say this property has had ongoing issues for years
with transients making their way inside.
Speaker 9 (22:08):
I've had my car broken into, I've had someone try
and break into my apartment. I've had package after package
stolen off my doorstep.
Speaker 11 (22:16):
They're frustrated they've gotten so little help from the property
management company and say this murder was preventable.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I just really hope there's justice for Manny and his family,
because his family right now, I don't know what they're
going through and I can't imagine, but it's a shame.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
I drove by that Ashton Sherman Village apartments today and
I didn't see any news crews out there, but that
is going to be a source of a lot because
there's a lot of single family homes around there as well.
Lamida Street is right there and you may know this.
It's off the one oh one and there's a popular
old hotel called the Mikado, the Mikada Hotel which is
(22:52):
just west of It's on Riverside, west of Witsend, and
that's where this is. There was a great bar man.
We used to go to a great bar. I think
it was called the Fifth and it had a different name.
But you know, where the Van's store is in the
valley on wistt and Riverside. Okay, you know where that is,
right you surfers, skiers, snowboarders, outdoors people. This is just
(23:14):
west of that, right along the La River. And it's
got some bad vibes, man, bad vibes.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
So they got to clean that up. They got to
clean that up or else side.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
You know, thirty eight hundred dollars for a two bedroom
apartment for a month is expensive. And if you don't
clean that up, you're gonna get a lot of vacancies.
That building's going to get a bad rap and it
is going to be back to a vacant hospital or
a vacant building. Barlow Shoot scrubs there again because people
are going to start moving out. They are not going
to tolerate that, not at thirty eight hundred dollars a month.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
No way.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
You're listening to Tim conwaytunire on demand from KFI AM
six forty.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Whiskey A Go Go.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
We got an update the dump truck that plowed into
the very famous club Whiskey A Go Go dump truck
coming out of the hills heading south towards Sunset Boulevard,
evidently loses its breaks and slides into Whiskey a Go Go.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
There's supposed to be a show there night. We don't
know if.
Speaker 2 (24:19):
The LA Fire Department's going to give it the OKA
or building inspectors are going to give the ok to
open tonight.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
We'll have to see. But there's an update here. Just
came in six six minutes ago. Six minutes ago. That's
a huge update.
Speaker 13 (24:35):
The dump truck driver has plowed into the iconic Whiskey
a Go Go in West Hollywood. Firefighters tell us five
vehicles were involved in this crash on Sunset and Clark Street.
It happened around one this afternoon. Some power is also
out in the area.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
No one was hurt.
Speaker 13 (24:51):
The band Boy Hits Car was set to play at
the venue tonight.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
It's not clear if.
Speaker 13 (24:56):
The show will go on.
Speaker 14 (24:57):
Well.
Speaker 7 (24:58):
More breaking news to get to people may reports Taylor
Swift has been subpoened as a witness in the Blake
Lively justin Baldoni case.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Oh my god, that is breaking news. How far is
Whiskey a Go Go to the Rainbow Room?
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Are they right.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Across across the street? Okay, I have an experience with
the Rainbow Room. I was hired as a stand up comedian.
Thank you very much. I swear to God Belliah.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Sorry that just came out. You did stand I opened
for Taylor Dane. How about that? I love Taylor Dane. Yeah,
guess who opened you or me for her?
Speaker 14 (25:39):
Me?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
So I got a call from an agent friend of mine,
a guy named Bill Gross, and he said, hey, my
client was supposed to do stand up comedy to open
up for Taylor Dane and he got it sick or
a car accident or something.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
He said, would you do it? They'll pay you five
hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
I said, yeah, never really have done stand up before,
but how hard could it be?
Speaker 3 (26:01):
How tough could it be? That was your first mistake?
Speaker 14 (26:03):
Right?
Speaker 2 (26:04):
But he called me literally the day before he goes
you just put together twenty or thirty minutes and go
up and do it.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
I said, O can now, how had you been doing
any stand up prior to that?
Speaker 10 (26:13):
No?
Speaker 9 (26:14):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Zero.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
So I get down there. I get down there early,
get the lay of the land. It's filled with Taylor
Dane fans, filled probably a couple hundred there, ladies and gentlemen.
Timkanawa Junior Standing Ovation and I wasn't in radio or anything.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I was just like an idiot.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
And I had thirty minutes of material and because nobody laughed,
I went through all thirty minutes in seven minutes. And
after seven minutes that was a wrap. And so they
started throwing things at me. I remember a bottle whizz
by me, a cup, and you know, people swearing at me.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I thought that just happened in the movies. No, no, no, no,
it was happened. It happened for opening for Taylor Dane.
No one came up to save you.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
No.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
And so I go off stage and Taylor Dane's manager
comes up and goes, hey, what are you doing. I said,
I went through. He goes, You're supposed to be up
there half hour. She's not ready to go, she'sn't ready
to go on. I said, I got nothing left. I
got nothing left in the tank. I blew through my
whole thirty minute set, and I heard somebody go, you
call out a set.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
You were off stage and still being eckled.
Speaker 13 (27:29):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
So the owner of the manager of the club came
up and says, hey, you got to go back out there.
I don't care what you do. You go out back
out there, and you got to, you know, entertain them
for another twenty to twenty five minutes.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
I said, buddy, I can't do that, and.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
He goes, well, you got to get the hell out
of here, I mean, and he showed me where the
door was, and so I'm leaving out the door and
I stop and I turned around. I said, he am
I still going to get my five hundred and he
closed the door.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Another bottle whizzes by. Yeah, that was a rat. Ever
got any money? Nothing?
Speaker 2 (28:02):
No, I'm glad I didn't get killed. And then man
to make things worse. As I was driving home. I
lived in the valley on Fulton and Moore Park at
the time. As I was driving home, I heard that
song don't Worry Be Happy, and I'm like, God, this
is not helping me at all.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I'm worried.
Speaker 10 (28:24):
Yeah, yeah, everybody said that, But as it go I'm like,
say it out, No, don't worry, be happy.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Don't worry, be happy? Where's my five iron bucks?
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Don't worry? They always hit it chest. That was it.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I felt like the dump truck should have hit me.
That had been a better night for me.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
And did you drive home with your window down? I
did all right. Uh, that's uh.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
It sucked. It was a whole horrible night. We got
an update here of a high speed chase. Didn't last long,
but is in sam Pedro. That's where Petros lives. That's
my taxi call.
Speaker 15 (29:31):
This shows just how fast things could change, especially when
dealing with something as a high speed chase. Officials telling
us this pursuit lasted only about a minute and it
all ended at this intersection. Behind me. Off into the distance,
you could see the suv that that suspect was driving.
It was just removed from on top of that car
that you see next to it.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
He was a guy who works at Marine Land and
he was on his way to the Star Kissed Plant
and he wiped out a.
Speaker 15 (29:55):
Lot of people that were injured in today's crash. Luckily
are okay, but they say it's a rough start to
Mother's Day weekend.
Speaker 14 (30:02):
He barreled through this intersection right into us, put us
in a tailspin. We hit a tree.
Speaker 15 (30:07):
So phone video shows the moments after a police chase
ended on the corner of Pacific Avenue in nineteenth Street
in San Pedro.
Speaker 12 (30:14):
I haven't even had time to process this. It was
so faster that we didn't have time to react.
Speaker 15 (30:20):
Tommy and Deanna didn't want to go on camera. The
couple was traveling in this infinity, getting ready to celebrate
Mother's Day weekend when they were hit.
Speaker 14 (30:28):
We were sitting at this red light. We saw a
Oh you.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Think Mom's gonna get blamed.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
You know if he if he didn't want flowers and
jewelry all the time, we would have got hit.
Speaker 14 (30:39):
Guns drawn, two cop cars down there, and then all
of a sudden, we saw a vehicle right in front
of the cop car.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
It's so typical the guy. She's trying to explain what happened,
and he's butting in like, no, no, sweetheart, I know you're
you're confused about what happened.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Let me tell you what happened. Guns he jumps in.
Speaker 14 (30:57):
Guns drawn, two cop cars down there, and then all
of a sudden, we saw a vehicle right in front
of the cop cars pull out and I thought, oh,
it's a high speed pursuit.
Speaker 12 (31:07):
Now we saw the officers come back blocked the car
in their and their guns. I said to my wife, Uh, oh,
there's something going on.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
And how about that guy right.
Speaker 12 (31:18):
Uh oh, there's something going on.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
It's like he could work here. Remember there was an
anchor Fellio who said one night, it looks like something's happening. Yes,
it was not me, it wasn't you. It was a yeah,
it wasn't you Crozier. But there was an anchor here.
We were talking about a story and like, hey, what's
going on out there? And she said, uh, looks like
(31:41):
something's happening.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
That was it. She was not wrong, Yeah, she was right. Yeah.
Speaker 12 (31:47):
Uh oh, there's something going on.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Yeah, that's exactly what she sounded like. Not a lot
of details, all right. Rely on Camfi A six forty
Conway show, on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Now you
can always hear us live on k f I AM
six forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and
anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
It's k IF.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
I am six forty and you're listening to The Conway
Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. It is the
Conway Show, Yes sir, yes, sir, And it is hotter
than hell outside. It is hotter than a witch's Oh
that's not that saying. Oh no, oh, you can't say
(00:22):
that word. Oh sorry, it is. Oh yeah, it's colder, right, Sorry,
I got that mixed up. I'm like my mom. My
mom used to say instead of I'm well he did
a one to eighty on that, my mom would say, oh,
he did a three sixty on that. Well, that means
he is exactly where he was before. But it is
hotter than hell out there today. It's in the nineties,
(00:43):
high nineties, and everybody's pissed. Everybody's angry. Bellio's on fire.
She's had it out with Krozier. I've had it. I've
had it running with her as well already. And I
went to a lunch today in Sherman Oaks or a
studio city, I don't know. It's somewhere on Venturbolord, and
(01:06):
everybody's honking and yelling, people picking up their kids from school.
They're pissed and it just does it to you.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
You know.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
I literally in the back seat of my car, I
have my winter jacket that I wore three nights ago
or two nights ago, when I went to Low's at
around nine o'clock at night. I put that jacket on
because it was sort of drizzling in the fifties. It
was cold, and I had that jacket on. Now it's
one hundred degrees. It's forty five degrees warmer than it
(01:38):
was the other day.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
Forty five degrees. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
But it's going to go down and we're going to
get back into the sixties and seventies next week. So
that is sensational. You know, this is a two. They
can't call this a heat wave. If somebody calls it
a heat wave, tell them they're wrong.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
It's not. It's not a heat wave.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
You have to have three days in a row of
heat of one hundred degrees or more, three days in
a row, and we're not going to get there. We're
not going to get there, so it is it's not
a heat wave. Don't let people tell you it's a
heat wave.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
It ate He's not even close.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
So we're just it's just warm it's just warm, that's
all it is. All right, Let's let's start with there
was an accident on sunset. We're still trying to get
information on that. We'll have that for you, But let
me start here with Bill Gates is giving away billions
and billions and billions of dollars. And you might be
(02:43):
able to get in on this, and that's one of
the reasons we're playing it here. You might be able
to secure some of this dough out of Bill Gates Foundation.
They don with this guy.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Bill Gate, billionaire, revealed he is giving away ninety nine
percent of money and he's as his charitable Gates Foundation
will undergo a major change that will result in shutting
down by twenty forty five. His organization, of course, is
devoted to fighting poverty, disease, and inequity, and is now,
as a result of today's announcement, doubling its spending on
(03:16):
those causes to two hundred billion dollars over the next
twenty years. We had to begin with the question you
may be asking, why.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Now by deciding to spend all this money in the
next twenty years, we can get a lot more done.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
The original plan for the Gates Foundation established and funded
by Bill and Melinda Gates and backed by additional billions
from Warren. Buffett was to keep the doors open and
the dollars flowing for two decades after Bill's death. Instead,
as of today's announcement, the plan is to give away
virtually all of my wealth, Bill writes, over the next
(03:53):
twenty years. And if you couldn't guess, we're talking about
a lot of wealth.
Speaker 5 (03:59):
Super excited that that'll be over two hundred billion that
will give away during that time period, and that we'll
be able to save tens of millions of lives.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
And you're not going to miss it, No, I won't,
you know.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
I hope I'm still alive when we finished the twenty years,
but I'll save a little bit to be able to
buy Hamburgers as much as I need.
Speaker 4 (04:22):
The one hundred billion dollars the foundation has already spent
since two thousand has helped cut the rate of death
among children under five in half.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
This is a Phillips ultrasound, thanks.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
In part to its investments in new technologies like the
ones he showed us at his offices in Palm Desert, California.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
What are you proudest of?
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Well billion? Two hundred billion dollars. That's what I'm proudest of.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
Well, the work in vaccines would be the top of
the list, because at the turn of the century, kids
weren't getting vaccines for diarrhea pneumonia, and that's now saved
millions and millions of lives.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
So, well, you can get a vaccine for diarrhea that
can be cleared up with a shot.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
I never heard that before in my life. Where do
you go to get that?
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Portable coolers and go anywhere. Drones help deliver those vials
where they're needed. But Gates now worries fewer people will
be getting them, not because of the distances, but because
of the governments involved.
Speaker 5 (05:26):
It looks like we'll be able to raise less money
now than we did in the past because the US
at least is tentatively not supporting buying those vaccines, and
other countries in Europe that have always been substantially more
generous are also cutting back.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
It sounds like, in part, you're doing this because you're
looking at the world and you're looking at this country
and they're doing less. So the Gates Foundation and other
foundations need to do more.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Okay, all right, we'll get to more of that, but
we finally have the information here on Whiskey A Go Go,
there's a dump truck that lost its breaks, at least
from what I gather from looking at it lost its
breaks coming down the hill towards Sunset, coming south towards
Sunset and slammed into Whiskey A Go Go, wiping out
(06:17):
at least a mail car or mail truck and a
few other cars as well, wipe them out.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Is this in Hollywood? A dump truck driver has plowed
into the iconic Whiskey A Go Go. Now live look
at the scene from mayor seven. The firefighters tell us
that five vehicles were involved in this crash on Sunset
and Clark Street. Some power also out in the area.
No one was hurt. Now, ironically, the band Boy Hits Car.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 2 (06:44):
Boy Hits Cars playing there tonight, So this has got
to be a publicity stunt. Yeah, you know, they probably
paid this guy, you know, loosing his brakes on his
dump truck plowing there, and we'll take off. Boy Hits Car,
Boy Hits Car, all right, Usually car Hits Boy.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Boy Hits Car was at to play at the venue tonight.
It's not clear if the show will go on, will
of course, continue to follow this breaking news throughout the afternoon.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Man, I am surprised nobody was hurt and nobody was killed.
That dump truck was filled with dirt. And you know
what dirt weighs. I mean for a cubic yard. You know,
just a cubic yard of dirt has got to be
over one thousand pounds. Let's see what a cubic yard,
A cubic Let's see cubic yard of dirt weighs, all right,
(07:37):
Let's see what it weighs, all right, a cubic cubic
twenty four. Let me see a cubic yard of work.
Let me see if soil ways about. They don't have
it here, of course they wouldn't have it here. Maybe
a misspellet, okay, three thousand pounds, three thousand pounds.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
I was going to say, a ton, okay.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Three yards or right, three feet by three feet by
three feet a cubic yard three feet on all sides.
It's like a die, a big dice, right, the one
to two to three, four, five and six, all sides
are three feet.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
That weighs three thousand pounds.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
So in that dump truck there had to be probably,
I don't know, maybe twenty cubic yards. You could easily
have twenty cubic yards in a truck, maybe maybe fifteen.
So that's forty five thousand pounds and the breaks go out. Man,
are they lucky they dodged a bullet on this one.
(08:40):
This could have been horrendous, and instead we found out
that the band playing is Boy Hits Car, Boy Hits Car.
All right, thing dong, it's Friday. It's hotter than hell
out there, and people are angry. So here's the rule.
When it's hot, when it's in near one hundred degrees
or more, don't honk it anybody who has their window
(09:01):
That could get you killed. Don't honk your horn at
anybody with their windows down. That tells you they don't
have air conditioning, and that tells you they're angry as
f Don't honk, Adam, you could get shot and killed.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
That'll save somebody.
Speaker 7 (09:17):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I got a text from a cousin of mine. Hey, idiot,
dump trucks carry a maximum of fourteen cubic yards, not fifteen.
That's where I am where I'm corrected by my cousin
(09:44):
over one cubic yard.
Speaker 8 (09:45):
And you weren't kidding when you said Friday, and everybody's
on edge.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Everybody's crazy today. I think it's the heat. I think
it's a combination. The heat and nobody wants to be
to work because it's so nice out and everybody is
waiting for Whango tango where I'm at. That's where I'm going.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
Man, I'm already at Wango tango, Croze. I know your
family is going. Are you gonna be the head and down?
Speaker 8 (10:08):
No? Okay, Now I just got I just got the
notification that I just had my power washer delivered to
the house, so I'll be a little occupied tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Oh isn't that the best ps I you got? Three thousand?
You gotta be careful of that.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Man, you're gonna start eating up some pavement, you know,
chipping away at some pavement and bricks. The whole house
is gonna be that great electric right, yes, sir, Yeah,
that's the only way to go.
Speaker 9 (10:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Man, the gas one are nice. You can tool it around,
but they're more powerful. But but you know what, you're
always anchored by a hose, so why not be anchored
by a cord too, you know, so I don't the
gas ones.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
There's always water that gets into the engine, and they're
louder and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Yeah they are, they are louder. The electric ones are great. Yeah, yeah,
it's my day tomorrow. Power washing is great. You know,
you really get a sense that you're you're doing something
such a good feeling.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Yeah, you can see.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
The dirt and the grime and the moss and the
mildew come right off those stones.
Speaker 8 (11:05):
Put the little soap dispenser on the end, and you
can do all the windows from the outside, second floor.
Speaker 10 (11:11):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
The only problem you're gonna have and I've I've had
this in the past, and I'll warn you that you're
you're going to feel so great because you get the
mist of the of the water on you and and
you'll think you're cool. You know that your your body's cool.
But it's not gonna be You got to drink a
lot of water because you're gonna think you're cool. So
you don't drink any water, then you get dehydrated. So
(11:33):
the key to what power washer is you got to
just keep drinking water. It's like the key to drinking
in the desert. You can have a beer, but you
also have to have four glass of water after we counter.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
You don't want to end up in the hospital.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (11:46):
I saved up for this thing, so I'm ready.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Good for you. What kind you get?
Speaker 8 (11:50):
Green works?
Speaker 3 (11:51):
Oh that's good one.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they have I think they sell those
at Low's and Costco.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
I did a ton of research and this was the
best one that was good, that was ale and it
wasn't you know, two overly expensive.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
Yeah yeah, oh it's fantastic. And then all the attachments
you can go, Oh, it's the best.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
We have a We talked about the Whiskey of Go Go.
They're still trying to clean that up. But dump truck
lost its breaks and slammed into Whiskey of Go Go.
So that'll be a big news story because it's a visual.
You'll see all the pictures, the video of the helicopters
flying over it.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
That's a whole big deal. All right. Back to the
San Fernando Valley.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
I don't think North Hollywood can handle any more bad news,
but they got some. They got some. There was a
guy that was killed in an apartment. Cops were called out,
They didn't find anything, and they split. Three days later,
they found the guy. And you may remember that story
where the guy came in through the skylight in an
(12:51):
adjacent apartment. Now that's how they're murdering us, coming in
like Batman or you know, Superman or I don't know,
Spider Man through the skylight into a vacant apartment, jumps
over the railing outside into another apartment, and kills the guy.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Allegedly.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Well, they found their guy and arrest has been made
by LAPD, so at least that we got that going
for us.
Speaker 11 (13:15):
According to police, they located this suspect at a local hospital.
LAPD detectives and the FBI Task Force believe he's the man.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
Okay, FBI got involved. They're good, They're good. They got
their guy. And I'm going to take a wild guess
that this is not this man's first strike on his
rap sheet. I have a feeling we've seen this guy before,
or the cops have seen this guy before.
Speaker 11 (13:43):
Responsible for murdering an innocent person who lived here at
this apartment complex.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
And the people live in that complex are livid. They've
been complaining about doors being left open, homeless hanging out,
people walking around stealing stuff from cars in the parking garage.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
These people are really pissed.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Okay, they supposed to be caught the suspect. They caught
the person who who murdered Manny. All right, now, what
what about security?
Speaker 11 (14:08):
There's little relief tonight for residents at the Ashton Sherman
Village apartments, even as the LAPD announces they've apprehended the
suspect wanted for a murder at the complex. This neighbor
lives across.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The hall and you know what, I don't know what
the rents are, but I know where this building is.
You know that building on It's on Riverside near Fulton.
And if you're on Riverside and you cross Fulton going west,
this building is on the right hand side. It's right
near the La River where it starts really thin. It's
like a triangle building and then it gets really big
as it goes deeper and deeper towards the river. That's
(14:41):
the building that's where this happened.
Speaker 11 (14:44):
This neighbor lives across the hall from the victim, fifty
eight year old Menochet Hedra, who she knew as Manny.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
He kind of was like a father figure in a way.
It's kind of weird. But you don't get that.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Yeah it is. I'll give you that. I will give
you that.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah, in a way, it's kind of weird.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
But yeah, yeah, okay, all right.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
I mean if you live in an apartment building and
you just sort of just moved in and you already
have a father.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Figure, you don't get that vibe from many men.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
That's right, that's right, because guys don't like to be that,
you know, Guys like to be in on the action
or move on. They don't like to be the the
father figure.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Just the pow.
Speaker 11 (15:24):
Lapd Valley Bureau detectives identifying the suspect is twenty seven
year old Eric Escamilla, seen here in surveillance video trying
a screwdriver to open doors in the building the night
of the murder.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
How about that guy rolling around your apartment building all right,
banging on every door if there's no answer, then takes
a screwdriver and tries to get in.
Speaker 11 (15:42):
Police say he accessed the victim's residence by entering through
a skylight in a vacant apartment and hopping over the
neighboring balcony.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Just a few days before the incident, My mom said,
lock your balcony door, and I laughed at her. Tell
me why. A few days later I find out Manny's
murdered through the balcony door.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
This could have been me.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
I live on the top floor, and as a single woman,
I always thought the best place to be is on
the top floor, away from you know, the bottom. It's
the hardest access. But I never thought, my skylight that
someone would go through it and murder someone.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Yeah, well that's where we are.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
And you always have to keep your balcony door locked always,
whatever floor you're on, you always have to keep it locked,
you know, you just it's easy to lock it. How
long does it take to lock a screen door or
a sliding glass door?
Speaker 3 (16:34):
Less than a second? Maybe a second at the most,
two seconds, I mean inevitably, they always say. And it's true.
Speaker 8 (16:40):
Locks are made for honest people, and if somebody wants
to get in, they're going to get in.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
But why are you making it easy?
Speaker 12 (16:45):
Now?
Speaker 8 (16:45):
Some times do we hear about criminals that will go
car to car to car to car, just looking for
one that's open.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Exactly you know what.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
Detective King of all Detectives, Alan Hamilton, he's the chief
of detectives. You know, he told me one day, he said,
thirty eight percent of homes that are robbed, thirty eight
percent are guys who came through an unlocked door. Thirty
almost forty percent guy walks up doors open.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Game on. We're rolling around.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
Anybody who's next door app I'm sure has had people
in their neighborhood post. Oh, here's video of a guy
just trying doors.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
Yep, I see it all the time. Yeah, all the time.
Got to keep the door locked. Where are you in
twenty twenty five where you're not locking doors?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
It's going on with you, man, oh man.
Speaker 7 (17:35):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
And there's an apartment building that is in trouble. And
that's the apartment building in Valley Village that's right near
Fulton and Riverside. Again, if you're on Riverside going west
once you cross Fulton, that's on the right hand side.
A lot of units there. It's been there for a
long time and it's got some really bad reviews like
(18:02):
this one. It says here this is May seventh of
this year. Here's a review for the Ashton what they
called Ashton Sherman Village Apartment Ashton Sherman Village Apartments in
North Hollywood night they called Valley Village. If you have
(18:25):
a piece of mail delivered to you, no HO is
on that address? All right here it is do yourself
favor and don't rent here. We pay about thirty eight
hundred dollars for a two bedroom apartment and it feels
like a scam. I'll be leaving as soon as my
lease is up. And then it goes on security. There
(18:47):
are ongoing concerns regarding the security in the building. Package theft,
package theft to become a persistent problem, which is incredibly frustrating.
The Convenience of delivery is negated by the anxiety of
potential loss. Transience ahoy, a lot of transient activity there
at that apartment building. And that says, if you're considering
(19:09):
moving to Ashton Village Apartments, don't be aware that these issues.
When IMT was managing this property, it actually felt like
a luxury building. Now it feels like a dirty ghetto
place to live. And then so the management wrote her back.
You know, if you leave a review, they can write
(19:30):
you back and it says we share your frustration. Over
this recent criminal activity. Sugar while incident, Tim.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
That's not appropriate to call her sugar. It's her name.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Oh okay, yeah, sorry, yeah, her name is a sugar.
M sorry And he said it says well, incidents at
our community are extremely rare. We unfortunately haven't been completely
excluded from the regional trend. And then another one. I
lived in Ashton Village apartments with my boyfriend and roommate
a year ago and the complaints we had with them
(20:10):
are the same complaints that residents have now if they
had just listened. And another one another property. That's all
you need to know. Another Essex property. The property was
built over a decommissioned hospital famous for being for being
a Sacred Heart hospital from the show Scrubs. Oh, I
(20:30):
didn't know that. You watch the show Scrubs. Yes, I
remember that hospital being there.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Exactly where it is. Yeah, that's that hospital. It was
in Scrubs. It runs along the river between the.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
La River and Riverside, right there at Fulton. Wow, I
didn't know that. I didn't know that. Well, that's where
it is, you know, I don't think it is near Fulton.
Let me I have to look this up. I think
i'm misstating the street there. Maybe it is Fulton. I
don't know, but I will tell you it is not
a cool hag. It's wits It.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
Sorry.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
I don't know why I said Fulton. I knew I
was wrong, though, so I corrected it. It's wits It.
Sorry for people out there who are just tuning in.
It's not Fulton, it's wits It, wits It, and then
cold Water and then Fulton. I get wits It and
Fulton mixed up. So it's not Fulton. It's wits It
wits It. And Riverside at the Ashton Sherman Village apartments,
(21:29):
they are having problems, big problems. Here's some more huge,
huge problems. By the way, if you live there, you
wo know exactly what these people are talking.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
My mom said lock your balcony door, and I laughed
at her. Tell me why. A few days later I
find out Manny's murdered through the balcony door.
Speaker 4 (21:52):
This could have been me.
Speaker 9 (21:53):
I live on the top floor.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
And as a single, okay, And so it goes on
and on. Let me pick it up here, lady.
Speaker 9 (21:59):
Never I thought my skylight that someone would go through
it and murder someone.
Speaker 11 (22:03):
Residents say this property has had ongoing issues for years
with transients making their way inside.
Speaker 9 (22:08):
I've had my car broken into, I've had someone try
and break into my apartment. I've had package after package
stolen off my doorstep.
Speaker 11 (22:16):
They're frustrated they've gotten so little help from the property
management company and say this murder was preventable.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I just really hope there's justice for Manny and his family,
because his family right now, I don't know what they're
going through and I can't imagine, but it's a shame.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
I drove by that Ashton Sherman Village apartments today and
I didn't see any news crews out there, but that
is going to be a source of a lot because
there's a lot of single family homes around there as well.
Lamida Street is right there and you may know this.
It's off the one oh one and there's a popular
old hotel called the Mikado, the Mikada Hotel which is
(22:52):
just west of It's on Riverside, west of Witsend, and
that's where this is. There was a great bar man.
We used to go to a great bar. I think
it was called the Fifth and it had a different name.
But you know, where the Van's store is in the
valley on wistt and Riverside. Okay, you know where that is,
right you surfers, skiers, snowboarders, outdoors people. This is just
(23:14):
west of that, right along the La River. And it's
got some bad vibes, man, bad vibes.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
So they got to clean that up. They got to
clean that up or else side.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
You know, thirty eight hundred dollars for a two bedroom
apartment for a month is expensive. And if you don't
clean that up, you're gonna get a lot of vacancies.
That building's going to get a bad rap and it
is going to be back to a vacant hospital or
a vacant building. Barlow Shoot scrubs there again because people
are going to start moving out. They are not going
to tolerate that, not at thirty eight hundred dollars a month.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
No way.
Speaker 7 (23:50):
You're listening to Tim conwaytunire on demand from KFI AM
six forty.

Speaker 7 (24:58):
More breaking news to get to people may reports Taylor
Swift has been subpoened as a witness in the Blake
Lively justin Baldoni case.
Speaker 2 (25:06):
Oh my god, that is breaking news. How far is
Whiskey a Go Go to the Rainbow Room?
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Are they right.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Across across the street? Okay, I have an experience with
the Rainbow Room. I was hired as a stand up comedian.
Thank you very much. I swear to God Belliah.
Speaker 3 (25:28):
Sorry that just came out. You did stand I opened
for Taylor Dane. How about that? I love Taylor Dane. Yeah,
guess who opened you or me for her?
Speaker 14 (25:39):
Me?
Speaker 2 (25:41):
So I got a call from an agent friend of mine,
a guy named Bill Gross, and he said, hey, my
client was supposed to do stand up comedy to open
up for Taylor Dane and he got it sick or
a car accident or something.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
He said, would you do it? They'll pay you five
hundred bucks.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
I said, yeah, never really have done stand up before,
but how hard could it be?
Speaker 3 (26:01):
How tough could it be? That was your first mistake?
Speaker 14 (26:03):
Right?
Speaker 2 (26:04):
But he called me literally the day before he goes
you just put together twenty or thirty minutes and go
up and do it.
Speaker 3 (26:09):
I said, O can now, how had you been doing
any stand up prior to that?
Speaker 10 (26:13):
No?
Speaker 9 (26:14):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (26:15):
Zero.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
So I get down there. I get down there early,
get the lay of the land. It's filled with Taylor
Dane fans, filled probably a couple hundred there, ladies and gentlemen.
Timkanawa Junior Standing Ovation and I wasn't in radio or anything.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
I was just like an idiot.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
And I had thirty minutes of material and because nobody laughed,
I went through all thirty minutes in seven minutes. And
after seven minutes that was a wrap. And so they
started throwing things at me. I remember a bottle whizz
by me, a cup, and you know, people swearing at me.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
I thought that just happened in the movies. No, no, no, no,
it was happened. It happened for opening for Taylor Dane.
No one came up to save you.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
No.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
And so I go off stage and Taylor Dane's manager
comes up and goes, hey, what are you doing. I said,
I went through. He goes, You're supposed to be up
there half hour. She's not ready to go, she'sn't ready
to go on. I said, I got nothing left. I
got nothing left in the tank. I blew through my
whole thirty minute set, and I heard somebody go, you
call out a set.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
You were off stage and still being eckled.
Speaker 13 (27:29):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
So the owner of the manager of the club came
up and says, hey, you got to go back out there.
I don't care what you do. You go out back
out there, and you got to, you know, entertain them
for another twenty to twenty five minutes.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
I said, buddy, I can't do that, and.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
He goes, well, you got to get the hell out
of here, I mean, and he showed me where the
door was, and so I'm leaving out the door and
I stop and I turned around. I said, he am
I still going to get my five hundred and he
closed the door.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
Another bottle whizzes by. Yeah, that was a rat. Ever
got any money? Nothing?
Speaker 2 (28:02):
No, I'm glad I didn't get killed. And then man
to make things worse. As I was driving home. I
lived in the valley on Fulton and Moore Park at
the time. As I was driving home, I heard that
song don't Worry Be Happy, and I'm like, God, this
is not helping me at all.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I'm worried.
Speaker 10 (28:24):
Yeah, yeah, everybody said that, But as it go I'm like,
say it out, No, don't worry, be happy.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Don't worry, be happy? Where's my five iron bucks?
Speaker 3 (28:54):
Don't worry? They always hit it chest. That was it.
Speaker 2 (29:07):
I felt like the dump truck should have hit me.
That had been a better night for me.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
And did you drive home with your window down? I
did all right. Uh, that's uh.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
It sucked. It was a whole horrible night. We got
an update here of a high speed chase. Didn't last long,
but is in sam Pedro. That's where Petros lives. That's
my taxi call.
Speaker 15 (29:31):
This shows just how fast things could change, especially when
dealing with something as a high speed chase. Officials telling
us this pursuit lasted only about a minute and it
all ended at this intersection. Behind me. Off into the distance,
you could see the suv that that suspect was driving.
It was just removed from on top of that car
that you see next to it.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
He was a guy who works at Marine Land and
he was on his way to the Star Kissed Plant
and he wiped out a.
Speaker 15 (29:55):
Lot of people that were injured in today's crash. Luckily
are okay, but they say it's a rough start to
Mother's Day weekend.
Speaker 14 (30:02):
He barreled through this intersection right into us, put us
in a tailspin. We hit a tree.
Speaker 15 (30:07):
So phone video shows the moments after a police chase
ended on the corner of Pacific Avenue in nineteenth Street
in San Pedro.
Speaker 12 (30:14):
I haven't even had time to process this. It was
so faster that we didn't have time to react.
Speaker 15 (30:20):
Tommy and Deanna didn't want to go on camera. The
couple was traveling in this infinity, getting ready to celebrate
Mother's Day weekend when they were hit.
Speaker 14 (30:28):
We were sitting at this red light. We saw a
Oh you.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Think Mom's gonna get blamed.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
You know if he if he didn't want flowers and
jewelry all the time, we would have got hit.
Speaker 14 (30:39):
Guns drawn, two cop cars down there, and then all
of a sudden, we saw a vehicle right in front
of the cop car.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
It's so typical the guy. She's trying to explain what happened,
and he's butting in like, no, no, sweetheart, I know you're
you're confused about what happened.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
Let me tell you what happened. Guns he jumps in.
Speaker 14 (30:57):
Guns drawn, two cop cars down there, and then all
of a sudden, we saw a vehicle right in front
of the cop cars pull out and I thought, oh,
it's a high speed pursuit.
Speaker 12 (31:07):
Now we saw the officers come back blocked the car
in their and their guns. I said to my wife, Uh, oh,
there's something going on.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
And how about that guy right.
Speaker 12 (31:18):
Uh oh, there's something going on.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
It's like he could work here. Remember there was an
anchor Fellio who said one night, it looks like something's happening. Yes,
it was not me, it wasn't you. It was a yeah,
it wasn't you Crozier. But there was an anchor here.
We were talking about a story and like, hey, what's
going on out there? And she said, uh, looks like
(31:41):
something's happening.
Speaker 3 (31:43):
That was it. She was not wrong, Yeah, she was right. Yeah.
Speaker 12 (31:47):
Uh oh, there's something going on.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Yeah, that's exactly what she sounded like. Not a lot
of details, all right. Rely on Camfi A six forty
