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. There's been a
change in programming here.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
I'm not gonna change him. I'm just not good with it.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
So cross off Corole at six thirty five. What, yeah,
I've been looking forward to that. And put him in
at six fifteen.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Oh it's even better. Yeah, it's a positive schedule change. Yep.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
So if you have a program at home, scratch Corole
at six thirty five and then put him in pencil
for six fifteen.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
I'm excited. That's only seven minutes from now.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
That's right. Well after that break, so well we take
that break. Okay, so six twenty years, okay, somewhere around there.
All right, let's get real quickly. There's some other news,
and I can't remember what the hell it was. Oh
I know what it was. I know what it was.
There are in Los Angeles, we all live here, not La.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
There is.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
You know this is a show biz town. Oh yeah.
And Zutopia two. They didn't expect this movie to make
this kind of dough. This is blown up. They expected
maybe three or four hundred million. Let's not much money.
This Zutopia two has grossed.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
It's news on Zutopia two slithering its way into movie history,
the animated sequel hitting one billion dollar love movie theaters worldwide.
And guys, they did this in less than three much
in less than three weeks.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
A billion dollars in less than three weeks.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
A billion dollars, that's really crazy in less than.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Three weeks from its debut. That is remarkable. This makes
a Zootopia two the biggest Hollywood box office blockbuster of
the year. It's at the record for the fastest PG
film ever to reach that billion dollar milestone. The franchise
clearly here insistible to fans with Zoutopia and Zutopia Plus.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Yeah, they like that Zutopia. I guess I've not seen
Zutopia one. I wonder if I can follow Utopia too.
Trash police is out there putting trash in the wrong bin,
could get you a warning and then get you fine.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Good crackdown, Tim. Yeah, let's get after these zero intolerance, Tim,
that's right.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
Does your community have trash police?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Yes, we do in Burbank. I often see that. They'll
even know on my trash can saying your green can
has been contaminating.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Oh, you're actually a scoff law.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I didn't realize that.
Speaker 6 (02:30):
The City of Brea posting a picture showing a city
worker checking somebody's trash cans.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Oh my god, whose job is this? Going around checking
your blue can, your black can, your green can. And
then there's a new one. Isn't there a tan can?
Speaker 4 (02:42):
There's one for scraps. I think for kitchen scraps. I
haven't gotten that. Though delivered, the.
Speaker 6 (02:48):
City says, monitoring the trash is actually mandated by state law.
Randomly selected addresses can have their trash cans check. If
you put trash in the wrong bin, snoops tag is
placed on your container explaining what incorrect violators could be
assessed fees starting at fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Oh my god, but what do you put in the
recycl can? Do you put cardboard in there?
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah? In the car in recycle you do, you do?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
But they don't allow that in burbank. It's just for
recycled bottles and cans. They don't let they don't let
you put cardboard in. They don't want you to know.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Oh that's interesting. Huh.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Everything goes in.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
It all goes into a landfill anyway, that's right. Probably
it does, I think, And sadly, yeah. I mean I've
told the story on the air before.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
But I used to live in another place in Burbank
and it was on an alley. So we put our
trash cans in the alley. And I was up early
one morning at seven o'clock and the guy came by
and I see him pick up the black can and
dump it in the truck. And then the same guy
picks up the blue can, dumps it in the truck.
Same guy picks up the green can, dumps it in
(03:47):
the truck. All three went in the same truck. And
I said, Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What's
going on? He said, Oh, it's really too dangerous to
bring three trucks down this small alley, so we just
on this alley we go.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I go, okay, that's great to know because I'm I'm
with you on that. But now it just makes it
easier I can throw anything in any can.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
He goes, yep, you're uh, you're on the on the
on the on the exceptional list on the tiny alley.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Yeah, so your your gold Tiny Alley list. That improved
my life by a boy twenty percent. Definitely takes the
pressure off, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
It does. Yeah, are you really?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Are you really?
Speaker 7 (04:22):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
And what I find Courtney does And I just saw
this today, No, just today.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Oh no, she took some of the cat food.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
She puts the cat food in the container, meaning on
the dish after she's finished with the cat food, instead
of rinsing out the time.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
My gosh, she just throws it in the reside.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
No, yes, exactly. And so I said, no, no, no,
of course I can't mention it to her because he'll
turn into a big fight. What I reach into the
recycling and I clean out all the stuff that she
doesn't clean out, then I'll throw it back in.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
What uh be? You got to clean out these cans?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
They can't be if they're soiled, they're not going to
be eligible for recycling.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Yes, so you got to. But as we've said, it's
like we're all going on, you've got to clean your can.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
You got to clean your can. That's a very good
way to put it.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, all right, we're going to take a break here
and a little bit early because we've got Adam Carolla
coming on. With us. He's doing a big deal on
Thursday at the Sagebrush Canteen out there. It starts at
eight o'clock. You can get tickets. Will tell you about that.
Speaker 8 (05:24):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de mayl from
kf I am sixty.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Adam Carolla is with Aaram Carolla.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
How you, Bob, oh man, I'm good. I'm on the
set of a Byron Allen game show right now. So
Allen literally in between episodes.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, is that it's not It's not comics Unleashed? Is it?
Speaker 1 (05:53):
No? It's funny. You should ask which is a show?
That's another Byron Allen show? But this is not comic
suddlyast Oh.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I see, Okay, Hey, the stuff you do at Home
Depot is my favorite stuff and I prefer one of
those a day. I don't know if you can squeeze
that in, but that's the funniest crap on the internet
right now.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
I'm so flattered you watched Jimmy. Yeah, people been kind
of you know. The rally is is I My shop
is almost literally across the street from the Home Depot,
and I go there all the time to get you know,
because of all the home improvement stuff I do. So
I have a guy who works for me as a producer,
(06:37):
and I say to them, I'm going to home depot.
He just goes, well, mind if I tag along and
I can just film you while you go to the
home depot, And I go, yeah, come on, let's go,
and we just go and it's just really found humor.
But I think, after the success of That's Not going
to Work, which is a sort of bit I did
(06:58):
at the end on one of them, I think we're
going to go back there and do more episodes That's
not going to work and face guys just stand at
the checkout at home Depot, see people walking out with
pufflers and plywood and oriented strandboard, and then I decide
whatever they're doing if it's going to work or not.
And I don't think it's going to work. And I
(07:21):
stood there just organically looking at a woman with a
cart in front of us, and I just kept saying,
it's not going to work. Whatever it is she thinks
she's doing, she's not going to do it right. And
we followed her out to the parking lot. She couldn't
even get the plotwood into the back of her chest.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
That was a great payoff to that.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Yeah, that is so cleassic.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Man.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
That's my home depot as well, and I go, probably,
I don't know, three nights a week. I love that
they're open all ten o'clock. But I will say that
home depot is a little different from Low's, and I
got to remind myself where I am so I can
find stuff. I wish they were uniformly the same, where
I didn't have to figure out where I was all
the time.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Would you say the difference between the home Depot and
the Lows is the difference between an outback steakhouse and
a sizzler, Like you didn't get a meal, you know
what I mean? Talk a little more with a little
nicer night out to pay for.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Right, That's great, that's classic. I sometimes slide up to
the Lows off the the five and the two ten freeways.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It's much bigger than.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Mine I'm at. I'm at the home Depot so much.
It's funny. I'll be walking around, and you know, I
walk with purpose when I'm there, and people inevitably come
up to me and they'll go, hey, we're the we're
the plumbing pictures, and I go, I don't work here,
and then I go Aisle seven.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
That's so classic. I My wife said to me, she said,
what do you go? Sometimes you don't come home with anything,
And I said, well, I said, they have this thing
way back in the in the back of home depot,
almost near you know, near the restrooms, the on the
north side. I said, there's if you go back there
and you look on the third shelf, there's a thing
they sell there that's so great. It's called forty five
(09:18):
minutes to myself.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yeah, that's right, that's right. All yeah, No, no Babylon
from the wives. Just a little smell of fresh cut flywood,
hearing a little classic rock in the speaker above your head,
a little bit of Armenian being spoken files over, and
you're just taking a deep breath and exhale slowly.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I love the variety of aisles that they mentioned. When
I asked for a product, I sometimes get thirty eight,
and then they ask somebody else, No, it's eighteen, somebody else,
Oh it's eight. I love the range of stuff, the
range of answers.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I think there should be tipping in a world where
I pick up tie food and she wants twenty percent.
And I got out of my car right like every
bery set Like, okay, you go to Starbucks, you get
a plain black coffee. They want they want a tip
on everything. Now right home depot, you can get a
(10:24):
retired veteran to go get your seventy feet of anchor chain,
wrap it up, cut it, drag it to the drag
it to a cashure and he gets nothing, nothing, nothing
for that guy. You're gonna be a latte, you get
nine dollars tip. They help you.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
Out with the stuff do you get you can get
you can then hit with.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Once in a while they will, but it's embarrassing to ask.
But I will say this Corolla that if you have
trouble putting your stuff in your car, and I'm sure
you don't, man, every guy that walks through that parking
lot is willing to help you. It's a real guys thing.
It's a real guy's move.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah, and they'll also help you when you're backing it
out due would be something women will never do. They
will let you plow into a special needs bus filled
with children before they would start moving their hand, you know,
stop close their further. And by the way, every Hispanic
guy I've ever worked with on a construction site can
(11:25):
do the super loud whistle so that when you're backing up,
when you're about to hit the concrete pumper, they do
the whistle and everyone stops. The safety thing that all
Hispanics can do.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
That's so great. Hey, you're gonna be in Sagebrush on Thursday.
That's a big deal.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Yeah, I'm doing a live podcast at Sagebrush Cantina this Thursday,
and that Brad Williams, very funny comedian's gonna be on
stage with me. So it should be a great show.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Oh that's a classic.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
People can get tickets at Adamcarola dot com. Is that correct?
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yeah, you can go to amcrol dot com. All the dates,
all the live shows, and all this stuff is going
to be up there.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I know you got to get out of here. You
got to go back to Byron Allen's Game Show, which
I thought I'd never say to.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
But you got to tell the story and how you
you didn't want to have pre treated wood cut, but
they said in Malibu they are not going to cut
that for you. That's a great story.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Well, it's very emblematic of California in general. Treated treated
lumber is like pressure treated lumber. It's what you would
use if you're using it exterior wood like building a
pergolar or deck or something, or contact with concrete. Regular
wood could get rotted and moldy and whatever outside, so
(12:56):
the pre treated stuff is just treated with a chemical.
And when I bought a piece of two by four
that was pressure treated from the Malibu animal lumber, the
guy warned me, they can't cut it for me. They
can't cut it in half with their sliding compound Mirosoft.
Because a lot of people don't drive trucks there, they
probably cut them with But he said, we won't cut
(13:17):
that wood. And I said why not, and he said,
it's an EPA environmental thing. There's chemicals in the wood,
by the way. You're just going to take it home
and cut it by the way when you're using it.
But they won't, and their soul was outdoors and they
said we can't do it because it'll harm the environment.
And a week later, the entire place burnt to the ground.
(13:38):
Every tesla, every futon, every piece of furniture, all the
car it all just burned to the ground, and the
whole toxic stew slid into the sea. Five days after
that when the rains hit and I thought, thank god,
that guy didn't cut that pressure treated two by four.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Right, it really is fantasm. It was like, that's great, buddy,
you got to do some more. Please, I'm begging you.
The home Depot stuff is just my I showed it
to my sister. She's passed it around. Everyone that sees
it absolutely loves it. And there's nobody else that can
do it like you. Please more home Depot stuff we got.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Yeah, they're calling me to the state, so this is perfect. Yeah,
I'm going out. I'll go out Friday and knock knock
some more up.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
There's all right, we'll keep promoting. Get back to the show,
and we'll promote the Sagebrush for you man. All right,
all right, Adam Carolla Adam Carolla dot com. You can
get tickets and go see him Thursday at Sagebrush Cantina.
That's right near Calabasis, is right where La County ends
and Ventura County starts. And which is weird because for
(14:49):
a while, the Ventura County smoking laws were stricter than
the La County smoking laws. So you can smoke at
when you can just be able to smoke cigarette at
Sage Rush Cantina. But if you walked out the door,
they'd give you a ticket. That's pretty funny because the
county comes to an end right there.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
That's very funny. Yeah, wild huh.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
So eight o'clock Thursday night, this Thursday, the day after tomorrow.
And I don't know, Bellio, you were going. I know
you're a big Corolla fan. You're gonna have to get
out there. You're gonna try to get out there. I mean,
she's out, Angel you going, I already have my ticket.
You're going right?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Yeah, you get around, you really do.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
That's that's Sage Brush. They got a kind of that's
a popping spot.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
I heard that.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
Yeah, they get the rock and rollers, they get the bikers. Yes, yeah,
you know, they got the different Uh, there's a different
texture to.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
The crowd each day. That's right. Are you going out?
There are crows?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
You're gonna hit this thing?
Speaker 7 (15:49):
No, not this Thursday. I got a early Friday.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
There's an honest answer. No, No, what about you step
You gotta work till ten?
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Yeah, I wish I could. Yeah, all right, well.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Screw it, you guys are out.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
Maybe I'll go who knows.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
All right, that's great. God, Adam Croller dot com get
tickets and Sart's at eight o'clock this Thursday, the day
after tomorrow at Sagebrush.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
You should go out there and just stitch her at
the back and go do the home depot stuff.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
Home Depot, Adam.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Talk about it, or just I go. I get drunk
and I'm like, where's Byron Allen? Or you could go
do your own version.
Speaker 9 (16:25):
How are you saying you was brib Byron Byron Allen's
game show, Brian Allen or whatever that guy's name is,
the Unleashed guy, the Brian Allens or something.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
By the way, Byron Allen's Unleashed should be called leashed.
Have you seen the comics on that thing? It's curated,
it's all PG. It's curated stuff. You know, it's not
it's not unleashed, it's but it's multi Byron Allen's Lots
of Leashes, it's super curated. That's what it should be called.
Byron Allen's Tons of leash, only leash the most leash
(17:02):
you can have in a comedy place.
Speaker 8 (17:05):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
That Carol is a very funny dude, very funny. Yeah,
he's gonna be at a Sagebrush on Thursday at eight o'clock.
Tickets are on sale at Adamcrolla dot com. You know
a carfax. Oh yeah, I guess there's some controversy. Oh no,
the odometers.
Speaker 7 (17:26):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Carfax is a history of the car that you're looking
to buy or sell, and it's pretty h extensive. It
shows if that car has been an accident, or that
car has been repaired or had water damage or flood
or fire whatever. And people rely on that information when
buying a car so they don't get duped. But let's
(17:47):
find out what's going on with Carfax thing dong with
these car facts.
Speaker 10 (17:51):
If you're in the market for a used car, the
people at Carfax say, be careful. The car you're about
to buy might be a lot more are used than
you think it is.
Speaker 11 (18:02):
So Carfax Stata finds about two and a half million
bugles on the road right now are suspected to have
had their domeinters rolled back. And that's about a fourteen
percent increase from just twenty twenty four. And that's especially
concerning because if we compare the year over year rate.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
It's dramatically higher than the years prior.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
The motive.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
There should be a tremendous penalty for that.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
I agree. I think there is a pray big penalty,
isn't there.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I think that it's a monetary but there should be
prison time for that. That would stop it pretty quickly.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Yeah, the motive is clear.
Speaker 10 (18:33):
Used cars with fewer miles fetch higher prices. Josh Ingele
of Atlanta Speedometers said, the scammers can roll back odometers
using legitimate tools.
Speaker 12 (18:43):
So this is a mileage correction tool. This is available
on the internet.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
How about that.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
They got a name for it, mileage correction tool.
Speaker 12 (18:51):
Yeah, God, this is a mileage correction tool. This is
available on the internet. Prices have come down substantially for
the past few years. The valid reason for this is
sometimes we have a cluster that cannot be repaired. So
whether that's water damage, lightning, anything like that. We have
the capability to get a new or used instrument cluster,
(19:12):
program the correct mileage to it, and then get it
back to the consumer.
Speaker 10 (19:16):
Ingele then demonstrated just how easily a scammer can use
that tool to full a purchaser.
Speaker 12 (19:23):
We'll cut over to the instrument cluster on this good
so you'll see that this car right now has one
hundred and fifty thousand miles on it using this device programmer.
I've already entered in and selected my model and internet
the value that I want to have, and I'm going
to hit the inner button and just in a couple
of seconds, you're going to see the dashes going to reset,
and then when it comes back to life, it's going
(19:44):
to show that new mileages that I've programmed this too.
Oh my god, Now we've got fifty thousand miles on it,
so we've saved one hundred thousand miles off the vehicle
one second.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Isn't that unbelievable?
Speaker 3 (19:54):
That's so wrong.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
That is the worst that now you don't think about,
you know, is my car? Did they do to my car?
My daughter's car?
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Used to be the used car scam that was exposed
on sixty minutes, I think, yah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
But one of the things you're talking.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
About with just Carfax sort of seemed like it was
the new legitimacy that was about all the stuff that
you mentioned, including mileage, and now you learn, oh no,
the old school way to turn it back. Has just
found a new school way to turn it back.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Damn it.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
You can't trust it. You can't trust anybody with anything anymore.
Speaker 8 (20:29):
You know.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
The one thing I always trusted is nobody could get
in there and change the mileage on that car. And
now he can do it in seconds.
Speaker 10 (20:36):
Both he and Carfax point out that rolling back an
odometer on a car you are selling is a federal
crime as far as what you can do to prevent
becoming a victim of such a crime, while they say,
on Carfax's website they put up a page carfax dot
com slash odometer where for free you can put in
a bin number of a car you're thinking of purchasing
(20:58):
to see if there is any suspense that's activity relating
to the odometer. They also suggest buying history reports on
the car you're thinking of purchasing, in taking it to
a mechanic to have a mechanic check it out and
see if anything looks suspicious to them.
Speaker 7 (21:14):
In La Palma, I'm chip yost.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Will they let you do that? Will they let you
do that? They'll let you go to get the car
and bring it to a mechanic. The let you do
a car will car Max does that. Yeah, okay, But
I bought a used car for my daughter. It was
a twenty twenty and we bought it in twenty twenty
(21:36):
four and it had twenty six thousand miles on it
and I thought, wow, that's that's not very many miles
for four years. And I hope that that didn't happen
in the car. Now I think, I don't know, maybe
it did.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
It's but then when she goes to sell it, I'm
gonna have to find some guy to lower the mileage again.
Maybe hook up with this guy. Get that mileage down. Bell,
You got to beat on this guy.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
That's the takeaway from that story exactly.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
They're gonna get involved with this.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Yeah, there's a new way for you to get more
value out of your car. That's that's the real headline.
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 8 (22:15):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I am sixty.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Krozier joins us because your last cast is at six
forty five and you're done out.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
That's a wrap.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
We're talking about Three's company and we're asking Krozer who
is the original mister Roper And of course you knew
you felt Norman found Yeah, but and we're also talking
about that must have been a difficult show to write
because everything was a misunderstanding everything, you know, because they
I think the storyline was that that John Ritter was
(22:51):
gay and that he wasn't having sex with either.
Speaker 7 (22:54):
That's why they told the Ropers.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Yes, yeah, and so they allowed them, the three of
them to live together. And he was always sniffing around
to see if they were having sex.
Speaker 13 (23:02):
And I do remember specifically he was in I believe
he was in his bathroom one time and he could
hear that he was working on the plumbing and he
can hear through the pipes a conversation between like Jack
and Chrissy or something.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Right, it was sexually oriented. Yeah, that turns out it
was nothing. It was something.
Speaker 13 (23:18):
He was like the eyes go up and he does
little hair flip and he's like, but he's gay.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I love don Nott's and and my dad worked with
don Naots quite often, but I thought Norman Fell was
a better mister Roper.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (23:31):
Yeah, and him having Missus Roper there helped as well.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
Yeah yeah, right was the single one?
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yeah right, yeah, But what a great show that was.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
I thought we actually had somebody on the show. I'm
just looking it up now.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
That was telling us that the writing challenge was that
they weren't allowed to talk about certain things on the show,
and and I thought sex was one of them, but
I might be wrong.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
That's the thing they never said, right, It was it's
all to.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Be suggestive, exactly, And that was a So what Tim's
talking about, which is sort of the general challenge of
writing from that show, because it's almost understanding it had
the additional challenge was you you really weren't allowed to
explicitly refer to the very thing that was an essence
of a show.
Speaker 7 (24:16):
The hilarity of it.
Speaker 13 (24:17):
Yeah, they couldn't say it on the show, and then
they couldn't say it on the show.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Exactly it exactly. It was great.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
You remember that? How great the theme song was here,
let me play it for you, very seventies theme song,
Come and knock on our door. We've been waiting for you.
The kisses Ours His Trees Company to.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Come and dance on our floor. Take a step.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
That is.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
His face that needs your face Trees Company.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Again, wasn't there a spinoff?
Speaker 4 (25:01):
Wasn't there?
Speaker 2 (25:01):
The Ropers was show?
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Yeah, the guy who wrote the theme to The Ropers,
or that the Three's company rather wrote to the theme
to Session Street.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
That's right, yeah, but what a It was a great
show and it's one of the reasons you came out
to California.
Speaker 13 (25:16):
I was as a latch key kid, my dad playing
in bands at night during the week. I was home
alone at night, and that that was right in my
wheelhouse when it started, and it was like I fell
in love with everything that John ridder did. And we
talked because last week we were talking about the Dick
van Dyke movie that's coming out with him turning one hundred, right,
and now you know you see that now with that
perspective of John ridd was Dick van Dyke, you know,
(25:38):
the physicality of it, you know, the pratt falls and
the art that he did it with, and that I
fell in love with that man and just the ability
to make people laugh like that.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I think of John Ridder off and especially when I
drive by Saint Joe's because I think that's where he died.
Speaker 13 (25:52):
Oh, I think that's I talked to him about a
month before he passed. No way, Yeah, I talked to
him on the phone. He was on the Michael Jackson
show on KC and I got to tell him that
he was basically the reason that I came out to La. Wow,
that's one of the greatest experiences that I've had. And
I went to a charity function where his son was
there and I actually had a whole conversation with his
(26:13):
son afterwards about that, and even having that conversation with
his dad and he his son was just fantastic.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Michael Jackson. That must have been after KBC, then, yes, yes,
it was just after. Michael Jackson has a great story.
He was the young it was a British or South African.
Was South African by way of Britain, I think. But
he had a great story. He won talk show Host
of the Year in some big, huge like publication, flew
to New York, got the award, came back and two
(26:40):
weeks later he was fired at KBC. And as he
was leaving the building and with all of his crap
in the in the trunk on rodeo drive there he
pulls out and a truck totals his car. It was
it was, you know, just a comedy.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Right from the pet house to the doghouse. Yeah, right,
But I still think about that.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
I thought, Wow, that guy was one talk show host
of the year and then got fired. It makes you
feel like nobody's ever secure in this business.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
No, it's so radio. That's like one of the most
radio things you know.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
But you know, whenever I hear anybody getting fired from radio,
I always hear I listened to the story, and I
always say to myself, Wow, I've never heard anyone fired
like that in my life.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
The stories get wilder and wilder.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
It's always different. I mean, you know, if you work
in a big company, they send you an email, you
you know, got hr, you get your check and you
leave here. It's like there's like nine different ways that
you've been you know, wiped out.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
And and there's another thing. I used to work at
kalis X, and back to when I was smart, I
used to smoke cigarettes. But I used to I was
standing outside on the little bridge that goes into the station,
a little walkway bridge, and I put my card keyt
in and it didn't work and because it was broken,
you know, there was a sign there. It was broken,
(28:00):
and then the sign got wet and it fell off.
And so I'm out there smoking it. Every single person
who came to try to get in that building. Who
worked at that station when their car key didn't work up?
I guess that's it.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
That's how we're gonna find it.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
That's how we're gonna find out. That's a wrap. That's
an unbelievable But all right, Chris Merrill's coming up immediately
here in a couple of minutes. But also don't forget
that Adam Carolla is going to be at the stage
Brush Cantina on Thursday. You can buy tickets at Adam
Corolla dot com Adamcrolla dot com. And Thompson has the
(28:38):
very popular talk show on You.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Mildly popular Tim. It's also on the iHeartRadio network and
on Spotify and iTunes podcast called The Mark Thompson Show.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Is that a lot more work than going to a
radio station?
Speaker 4 (28:51):
It is way more work, too much work, and Tim, frankly,
the money's not in us.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
So I'm going to be making some decisions in the
new year about.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (28:59):
Yeah? Soon? Really?
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Well, it's very popular, it's and I am grateful for
the relationship I have to the audience.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Are you gonna fire everybody and just do it yourself?
Speaker 3 (29:09):
I think I like to play in a band.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
You're the same way, you like you like you know
there the Krozier and belly ots and I'm the same way.
So I don't want to I have to do it
with other people. But the you know, it is a
it is a challenge to you know, to make payroll
every month.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
I bet it is. But it's that it's at the
Mark Thompson Show.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
That's right on YouTube, the Mark Thompson Show. And it's
the Mark Thompson Show on the iHeartRadio network, in Spotify,
et cetera. And how many followers or one hundred forty
thousand that's a lot debscribers.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Yeah, that's huge.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
That's good. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
And Krozier has a book coming out? Is that gonna
come out this year?
Speaker 13 (29:47):
I got to write my own book. That's what I
have to do. I mean, I got this one that
Jen got me. It was through AI should just put
in a bunch of details, and I'm just like and
and reading from it. There's a whole chapter in there
about working with you and on this show. That's great
and it's incredibly accurate of what it says about you.
Speaker 7 (30:05):
Really, Yeah, it's it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
How how how on it is what what's the title
of the book?
Speaker 7 (30:11):
Uh from the Nuts of a Newsman.
Speaker 13 (30:13):
Nuts of a Newsman. Yeah, because I because I get
I eat like nuts. I eat all the broken ones
first before.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, the OCD kicks it.
Speaker 7 (30:22):
That's it. That's what it's all about.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Yeah, I'm OCD. When it comes to the garage, I
constantly am trying to tweak it and fix it. And
my wife and daughter are like, it looks great. Everything's
into the place. I'm like, no, no, it's not there yet.
It's not quite there yet. I got to move this
box over here and this box over there. All the
boxes they're numbered, they're all computerized.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I can get to anything in my life in eight seconds.
But I'm still not happy with it. It's I don't
think I ever will be.
Speaker 13 (30:48):
I'm redoing my launch room and I had to tear
out the wall behind the washer and the dryer because
I'm going to redo all the plumbing ands and stuff
in there in the wall. And I told Jen, I says,
it's gonna take a minute, becare Once I get the
wall off, I have to look at it and really
figure out exactly what.
Speaker 7 (31:05):
I'm doing with my OCD. Before I even touch it again.
So there's a whole big bare wall right now.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
That's the same.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
The washingt dryer is still working.
Speaker 7 (31:11):
Well, yeah, everything's still hooked up because that's my OCD.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yeah, real quickly. When we were my wife was pregnant
in two thousand and five, I smartly decided to remodel
the kitchen while she was pregnant, which is a good idea.
And I was gonna they dropped off the dryer and
I said to my wife, I go, I don't want
to wait a week to have this guy come and
hook it up. Let's hook it up. I said, put
your finger over the gas, the natural gas, and then
(31:37):
I'll quickly attach it to the dryer. And she's She goes, Tim,
I'm eight months pregnant, I said, but there's very little
PSI on that gas. You could hold it with You
could hold it with your tongue if you needed to.
All Right, we gotta get out of here. It's Conna

All right, let's get real quickly. There's some other news,
and I can't remember what the hell it was. Oh
I know what it was. I know what it was.
There are in Los Angeles, we all live here, not La.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
There is.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
You know this is a show biz town. Oh yeah.
And Zutopia two. They didn't expect this movie to make
this kind of dough. This is blown up. They expected
maybe three or four hundred million. Let's not much money.
This Zutopia two has grossed.
Speaker 5 (01:16):
It's news on Zutopia two slithering its way into movie history,
the animated sequel hitting one billion dollar love movie theaters worldwide.
And guys, they did this in less than three much
in less than three weeks.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
A billion dollars in less than three weeks.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
It's crazy.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
A billion dollars, that's really crazy in less than.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Three weeks from its debut. That is remarkable. This makes
a Zootopia two the biggest Hollywood box office blockbuster of
the year. It's at the record for the fastest PG
film ever to reach that billion dollar milestone. The franchise
clearly here insistible to fans with Zoutopia and Zutopia Plus.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Yeah, they like that Zutopia. I guess I've not seen
Zutopia one. I wonder if I can follow Utopia too.
Trash police is out there putting trash in the wrong bin,
could get you a warning and then get you fine.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Good crackdown, Tim. Yeah, let's get after these zero intolerance, Tim,
that's right.
Speaker 6 (02:15):
Does your community have trash police?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Yes, we do in Burbank. I often see that. They'll
even know on my trash can saying your green can
has been contaminating.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Oh, you're actually a scoff law.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I didn't realize that.
Speaker 6 (02:30):
The City of Brea posting a picture showing a city
worker checking somebody's trash cans.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Oh my god, whose job is this? Going around checking
your blue can, your black can, your green can. And
then there's a new one. Isn't there a tan can?
Speaker 4 (02:42):
There's one for scraps. I think for kitchen scraps. I
haven't gotten that. Though delivered, the.
Speaker 6 (02:48):
City says, monitoring the trash is actually mandated by state law.
Randomly selected addresses can have their trash cans check. If
you put trash in the wrong bin, snoops tag is
placed on your container explaining what incorrect violators could be
assessed fees starting at fifty dollars.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Oh my god, but what do you put in the
recycl can? Do you put cardboard in there?
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Yeah? In the car in recycle you do, you do?
Speaker 2 (03:10):
But they don't allow that in burbank. It's just for
recycled bottles and cans. They don't let they don't let
you put cardboard in. They don't want you to know.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Oh that's interesting. Huh.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Everything goes in.
Speaker 4 (03:20):
It all goes into a landfill anyway, that's right. Probably
it does, I think, And sadly, yeah. I mean I've
told the story on the air before.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
But I used to live in another place in Burbank
and it was on an alley. So we put our
trash cans in the alley. And I was up early
one morning at seven o'clock and the guy came by
and I see him pick up the black can and
dump it in the truck. And then the same guy
picks up the blue can, dumps it in the truck.
Same guy picks up the green can, dumps it in
(03:47):
the truck. All three went in the same truck. And
I said, Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What's
going on? He said, Oh, it's really too dangerous to
bring three trucks down this small alley, so we just
on this alley we go.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
I go, okay, that's great to know because I'm I'm
with you on that. But now it just makes it
easier I can throw anything in any can.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
He goes, yep, you're uh, you're on the on the
on the on the exceptional list on the tiny alley.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Yeah, so your your gold Tiny Alley list. That improved
my life by a boy twenty percent. Definitely takes the
pressure off, doesn't it.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
It does. Yeah, are you really?
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Are you really?
Speaker 7 (04:22):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
And what I find Courtney does And I just saw
this today, No, just today.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Oh no, she took some of the cat food.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
She puts the cat food in the container, meaning on
the dish after she's finished with the cat food, instead
of rinsing out the time.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
My gosh, she just throws it in the reside.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
No, yes, exactly. And so I said, no, no, no,
of course I can't mention it to her because he'll
turn into a big fight. What I reach into the
recycling and I clean out all the stuff that she
doesn't clean out, then I'll throw it back in.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
What uh be? You got to clean out these cans?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
They can't be if they're soiled, they're not going to
be eligible for recycling.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Yes, so you got to. But as we've said, it's
like we're all going on, you've got to clean your can.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
You got to clean your can. That's a very good
way to put it.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, all right, we're going to take a break here
and a little bit early because we've got Adam Carolla
coming on. With us. He's doing a big deal on
Thursday at the Sagebrush Canteen out there. It starts at
eight o'clock. You can get tickets. Will tell you about that.
Speaker 8 (05:24):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on de mayl from
kf I am sixty.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Adam Carolla is with Aaram Carolla.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
How you, Bob, oh man, I'm good. I'm on the
set of a Byron Allen game show right now. So
Allen literally in between episodes.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, is that it's not It's not comics Unleashed? Is it?
Speaker 1 (05:53):
No? It's funny. You should ask which is a show?
That's another Byron Allen show? But this is not comic
suddlyast Oh.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I see, Okay, Hey, the stuff you do at Home
Depot is my favorite stuff and I prefer one of
those a day. I don't know if you can squeeze
that in, but that's the funniest crap on the internet
right now.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
I'm so flattered you watched Jimmy. Yeah, people been kind
of you know. The rally is is I My shop
is almost literally across the street from the Home Depot,
and I go there all the time to get you know,
because of all the home improvement stuff I do. So
I have a guy who works for me as a producer,
(06:37):
and I say to them, I'm going to home depot.
He just goes, well, mind if I tag along and
I can just film you while you go to the
home depot, And I go, yeah, come on, let's go,
and we just go and it's just really found humor.
But I think, after the success of That's Not going
to Work, which is a sort of bit I did
(06:58):
at the end on one of them, I think we're
going to go back there and do more episodes That's
not going to work and face guys just stand at
the checkout at home Depot, see people walking out with
pufflers and plywood and oriented strandboard, and then I decide
whatever they're doing if it's going to work or not.
And I don't think it's going to work. And I
(07:21):
stood there just organically looking at a woman with a
cart in front of us, and I just kept saying,
it's not going to work. Whatever it is she thinks
she's doing, she's not going to do it right. And
we followed her out to the parking lot. She couldn't
even get the plotwood into the back of her chest.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
That was a great payoff to that.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Yeah, that is so cleassic.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Man.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
That's my home depot as well, and I go, probably,
I don't know, three nights a week. I love that
they're open all ten o'clock. But I will say that
home depot is a little different from Low's, and I
got to remind myself where I am so I can
find stuff. I wish they were uniformly the same, where
I didn't have to figure out where I was all
the time.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Would you say the difference between the home Depot and
the Lows is the difference between an outback steakhouse and
a sizzler, Like you didn't get a meal, you know
what I mean? Talk a little more with a little
nicer night out to pay for.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Right, That's great, that's classic. I sometimes slide up to
the Lows off the the five and the two ten freeways.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
It's much bigger than.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
Mine I'm at. I'm at the home Depot so much.
It's funny. I'll be walking around, and you know, I
walk with purpose when I'm there, and people inevitably come
up to me and they'll go, hey, we're the we're
the plumbing pictures, and I go, I don't work here,
and then I go Aisle seven.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
That's so classic. I My wife said to me, she said,
what do you go? Sometimes you don't come home with anything,
And I said, well, I said, they have this thing
way back in the in the back of home depot,
almost near you know, near the restrooms, the on the
north side. I said, there's if you go back there
and you look on the third shelf, there's a thing
they sell there that's so great. It's called forty five
(09:18):
minutes to myself.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
Yeah, that's right, that's right. All yeah, No, no Babylon
from the wives. Just a little smell of fresh cut flywood,
hearing a little classic rock in the speaker above your head,
a little bit of Armenian being spoken files over, and
you're just taking a deep breath and exhale slowly.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I love the variety of aisles that they mentioned. When
I asked for a product, I sometimes get thirty eight,
and then they ask somebody else, No, it's eighteen, somebody else,
Oh it's eight. I love the range of stuff, the
range of answers.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I think there should be tipping in a world where
I pick up tie food and she wants twenty percent.
And I got out of my car right like every
bery set Like, okay, you go to Starbucks, you get
a plain black coffee. They want they want a tip
on everything. Now right home depot, you can get a
(10:24):
retired veteran to go get your seventy feet of anchor chain,
wrap it up, cut it, drag it to the drag
it to a cashure and he gets nothing, nothing, nothing
for that guy. You're gonna be a latte, you get
nine dollars tip. They help you.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
Out with the stuff do you get you can get
you can then hit with.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Once in a while they will, but it's embarrassing to ask.
But I will say this Corolla that if you have
trouble putting your stuff in your car, and I'm sure
you don't, man, every guy that walks through that parking
lot is willing to help you. It's a real guys thing.
It's a real guy's move.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah, and they'll also help you when you're backing it
out due would be something women will never do. They
will let you plow into a special needs bus filled
with children before they would start moving their hand, you know,
stop close their further. And by the way, every Hispanic
guy I've ever worked with on a construction site can
(11:25):
do the super loud whistle so that when you're backing up,
when you're about to hit the concrete pumper, they do
the whistle and everyone stops. The safety thing that all
Hispanics can do.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
That's so great. Hey, you're gonna be in Sagebrush on Thursday.
That's a big deal.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Yeah, I'm doing a live podcast at Sagebrush Cantina this Thursday,
and that Brad Williams, very funny comedian's gonna be on
stage with me. So it should be a great show.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Oh that's a classic.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
People can get tickets at Adamcarola dot com. Is that correct?
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yeah, you can go to amcrol dot com. All the dates,
all the live shows, and all this stuff is going
to be up there.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I know you got to get out of here. You
got to go back to Byron Allen's Game Show, which
I thought I'd never say to.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
But you got to tell the story and how you
you didn't want to have pre treated wood cut, but
they said in Malibu they are not going to cut
that for you. That's a great story.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Well, it's very emblematic of California in general. Treated treated
lumber is like pressure treated lumber. It's what you would
use if you're using it exterior wood like building a
pergolar or deck or something, or contact with concrete. Regular
wood could get rotted and moldy and whatever outside, so
(12:56):
the pre treated stuff is just treated with a chemical.
And when I bought a piece of two by four
that was pressure treated from the Malibu animal lumber, the
guy warned me, they can't cut it for me. They
can't cut it in half with their sliding compound Mirosoft.
Because a lot of people don't drive trucks there, they
probably cut them with But he said, we won't cut
(13:17):
that wood. And I said why not, and he said,
it's an EPA environmental thing. There's chemicals in the wood,
by the way. You're just going to take it home
and cut it by the way when you're using it.
But they won't, and their soul was outdoors and they
said we can't do it because it'll harm the environment.
And a week later, the entire place burnt to the ground.
(13:38):
Every tesla, every futon, every piece of furniture, all the
car it all just burned to the ground, and the
whole toxic stew slid into the sea. Five days after
that when the rains hit and I thought, thank god,
that guy didn't cut that pressure treated two by four.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Right, it really is fantasm. It was like, that's great, buddy,
you got to do some more. Please, I'm begging you.
The home Depot stuff is just my I showed it
to my sister. She's passed it around. Everyone that sees
it absolutely loves it. And there's nobody else that can
do it like you. Please more home Depot stuff we got.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Yeah, they're calling me to the state, so this is perfect. Yeah,
I'm going out. I'll go out Friday and knock knock
some more up.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
There's all right, we'll keep promoting. Get back to the show,
and we'll promote the Sagebrush for you man. All right,
all right, Adam Carolla Adam Carolla dot com. You can
get tickets and go see him Thursday at Sagebrush Cantina.
That's right near Calabasis, is right where La County ends
and Ventura County starts. And which is weird because for
(14:49):
a while, the Ventura County smoking laws were stricter than
the La County smoking laws. So you can smoke at
when you can just be able to smoke cigarette at
Sage Rush Cantina. But if you walked out the door,
they'd give you a ticket. That's pretty funny because the
county comes to an end right there.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
That's very funny. Yeah, wild huh.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
So eight o'clock Thursday night, this Thursday, the day after tomorrow.
And I don't know, Bellio, you were going. I know
you're a big Corolla fan. You're gonna have to get
out there. You're gonna try to get out there. I mean,
she's out, Angel you going, I already have my ticket.
You're going right?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Yeah, you get around, you really do.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
That's that's Sage Brush. They got a kind of that's
a popping spot.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
I heard that.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
Yeah, they get the rock and rollers, they get the bikers. Yes, yeah,
you know, they got the different Uh, there's a different
texture to.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
The crowd each day. That's right. Are you going out?

Speaker 4 (16:10):
You should go out there and just stitch her at

Speaker 3 (16:15):
Home Depot, Adam.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Talk about it, or just I go. I get drunk
and I'm like, where's Byron Allen? Or you could go
do your own version.
Speaker 9 (16:25):
How are you saying you was brib Byron Byron Allen's
game show, Brian Allen or whatever that guy's name is,
the Unleashed guy, the Brian Allens or something.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
By the way, Byron Allen's Unleashed should be called leashed.
Have you seen the comics on that thing? It's curated,
it's all PG. It's curated stuff. You know, it's not
it's not unleashed, it's but it's multi Byron Allen's Lots
of Leashes, it's super curated. That's what it should be called.
Byron Allen's Tons of leash, only leash the most leash
(17:02):
you can have in a comedy place.
Speaker 8 (17:05):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
That Carol is a very funny dude, very funny. Yeah,
he's gonna be at a Sagebrush on Thursday at eight o'clock.
Tickets are on sale at Adamcrolla dot com. You know
a carfax. Oh yeah, I guess there's some controversy. Oh no,
the odometers.
Speaker 7 (17:26):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Carfax is a history of the car that you're looking
to buy or sell, and it's pretty h extensive. It
shows if that car has been an accident, or that
car has been repaired or had water damage or flood
or fire whatever. And people rely on that information when
buying a car so they don't get duped. But let's
(17:47):
find out what's going on with Carfax thing dong with
these car facts.
Speaker 10 (17:51):
If you're in the market for a used car, the
people at Carfax say, be careful. The car you're about
to buy might be a lot more are used than
you think it is.
Speaker 11 (18:02):
So Carfax Stata finds about two and a half million
bugles on the road right now are suspected to have
had their domeinters rolled back. And that's about a fourteen
percent increase from just twenty twenty four. And that's especially
concerning because if we compare the year over year rate.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
It's dramatically higher than the years prior.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
The motive.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
There should be a tremendous penalty for that.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
I agree. I think there is a pray big penalty,
isn't there.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I think that it's a monetary but there should be
prison time for that. That would stop it pretty quickly.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Yeah, the motive is clear.
Speaker 10 (18:33):
Used cars with fewer miles fetch higher prices. Josh Ingele
of Atlanta Speedometers said, the scammers can roll back odometers
using legitimate tools.
Speaker 12 (18:43):
So this is a mileage correction tool. This is available
on the internet.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
How about that.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
They got a name for it, mileage correction tool.
Speaker 12 (18:51):
Yeah, God, this is a mileage correction tool. This is
available on the internet. Prices have come down substantially for
the past few years. The valid reason for this is
sometimes we have a cluster that cannot be repaired. So
whether that's water damage, lightning, anything like that. We have
the capability to get a new or used instrument cluster,
(19:12):
program the correct mileage to it, and then get it
back to the consumer.
Speaker 10 (19:16):
Ingele then demonstrated just how easily a scammer can use
that tool to full a purchaser.
Speaker 12 (19:23):
We'll cut over to the instrument cluster on this good
so you'll see that this car right now has one
hundred and fifty thousand miles on it using this device programmer.
I've already entered in and selected my model and internet
the value that I want to have, and I'm going
to hit the inner button and just in a couple
of seconds, you're going to see the dashes going to reset,
and then when it comes back to life, it's going
(19:44):
to show that new mileages that I've programmed this too.
Oh my god, Now we've got fifty thousand miles on it,
so we've saved one hundred thousand miles off the vehicle
one second.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Isn't that unbelievable?
Speaker 3 (19:54):
That's so wrong.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
That is the worst that now you don't think about,
you know, is my car? Did they do to my car?
My daughter's car?
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Used to be the used car scam that was exposed
on sixty minutes, I think, yah, exactly.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
But one of the things you're talking.
Speaker 4 (20:11):
About with just Carfax sort of seemed like it was
the new legitimacy that was about all the stuff that
you mentioned, including mileage, and now you learn, oh no,
the old school way to turn it back. Has just
found a new school way to turn it back.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Damn it.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
You can't trust it. You can't trust anybody with anything anymore.
Speaker 8 (20:29):
You know.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
The one thing I always trusted is nobody could get
in there and change the mileage on that car. And
now he can do it in seconds.
Speaker 10 (20:36):
Both he and Carfax point out that rolling back an
odometer on a car you are selling is a federal
crime as far as what you can do to prevent
becoming a victim of such a crime, while they say,
on Carfax's website they put up a page carfax dot
com slash odometer where for free you can put in
a bin number of a car you're thinking of purchasing
(20:58):
to see if there is any suspense that's activity relating
to the odometer. They also suggest buying history reports on
the car you're thinking of purchasing, in taking it to
a mechanic to have a mechanic check it out and
see if anything looks suspicious to them.
Speaker 7 (21:14):
In La Palma, I'm chip yost.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
Will they let you do that? Will they let you
do that? They'll let you go to get the car
and bring it to a mechanic. The let you do
a car will car Max does that. Yeah, okay, But
I bought a used car for my daughter. It was
a twenty twenty and we bought it in twenty twenty
(21:36):
four and it had twenty six thousand miles on it
and I thought, wow, that's that's not very many miles
for four years. And I hope that that didn't happen
in the car. Now I think, I don't know, maybe
it did.
Speaker 2 (21:50):
It's but then when she goes to sell it, I'm
gonna have to find some guy to lower the mileage again.
Maybe hook up with this guy. Get that mileage down. Bell,
You got to beat on this guy.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
That's the takeaway from that story exactly.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
They're gonna get involved with this.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
Yeah, there's a new way for you to get more
value out of your car. That's that's the real headline.
That's right, that's right.
Speaker 8 (22:15):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I am sixty.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Krozier joins us because your last cast is at six
forty five and you're done out.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
That's a wrap.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
We're talking about Three's company and we're asking Krozer who
is the original mister Roper And of course you knew
you felt Norman found Yeah, but and we're also talking
about that must have been a difficult show to write
because everything was a misunderstanding everything, you know, because they
I think the storyline was that that John Ritter was
(22:51):
gay and that he wasn't having sex with either.
Speaker 7 (22:54):
That's why they told the Ropers.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
Yes, yeah, and so they allowed them, the three of
them to live together. And he was always sniffing around
to see if they were having sex.
Speaker 13 (23:02):
And I do remember specifically he was in I believe
he was in his bathroom one time and he could
hear that he was working on the plumbing and he
can hear through the pipes a conversation between like Jack
and Chrissy or something.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
Right, it was sexually oriented. Yeah, that turns out it
was nothing. It was something.
Speaker 13 (23:18):
He was like the eyes go up and he does
little hair flip and he's like, but he's gay.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
I love don Nott's and and my dad worked with
don Naots quite often, but I thought Norman Fell was
a better mister Roper.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 13 (23:31):
Yeah, and him having Missus Roper there helped as well.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
Yeah yeah, right was the single one?
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yeah right, yeah, But what a great show that was.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
I thought we actually had somebody on the show. I'm
just looking it up now.
Speaker 3 (23:43):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
That was telling us that the writing challenge was that
they weren't allowed to talk about certain things on the show,
and and I thought sex was one of them, but
I might be wrong.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
That's the thing they never said, right, It was it's
all to.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
Be suggestive, exactly, And that was a So what Tim's
talking about, which is sort of the general challenge of
writing from that show, because it's almost understanding it had
the additional challenge was you you really weren't allowed to
explicitly refer to the very thing that was an essence
of a show.
Speaker 7 (24:16):
The hilarity of it.
Speaker 13 (24:17):
Yeah, they couldn't say it on the show, and then
they couldn't say it on the show.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Exactly it exactly. It was great.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
You remember that? How great the theme song was here,
let me play it for you, very seventies theme song,
Come and knock on our door. We've been waiting for you.
The kisses Ours His Trees Company to.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Come and dance on our floor. Take a step.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
That is.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
His face that needs your face Trees Company.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
Again, wasn't there a spinoff?
Speaker 4 (25:01):
Wasn't there?
Speaker 2 (25:01):
The Ropers was show?
Speaker 4 (25:04):
Yeah, the guy who wrote the theme to The Ropers,
or that the Three's company rather wrote to the theme
to Session Street.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
That's right, yeah, but what a It was a great
show and it's one of the reasons you came out
to California.
Speaker 13 (25:16):
I was as a latch key kid, my dad playing
in bands at night during the week. I was home
alone at night, and that that was right in my
wheelhouse when it started, and it was like I fell
in love with everything that John ridder did. And we
talked because last week we were talking about the Dick
van Dyke movie that's coming out with him turning one hundred, right,
and now you know you see that now with that
perspective of John ridd was Dick van Dyke, you know,
(25:38):
the physicality of it, you know, the pratt falls and
the art that he did it with, and that I
fell in love with that man and just the ability
to make people laugh like that.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I think of John Ridder off and especially when I
drive by Saint Joe's because I think that's where he died.
Speaker 13 (25:52):
Oh, I think that's I talked to him about a
month before he passed. No way, Yeah, I talked to
him on the phone. He was on the Michael Jackson
show on KC and I got to tell him that
he was basically the reason that I came out to La. Wow,
that's one of the greatest experiences that I've had. And
I went to a charity function where his son was
there and I actually had a whole conversation with his
(26:13):
son afterwards about that, and even having that conversation with
his dad and he his son was just fantastic.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Michael Jackson. That must have been after KBC, then, yes, yes,
it was just after. Michael Jackson has a great story.
He was the young it was a British or South African.
Was South African by way of Britain, I think. But
he had a great story. He won talk show Host
of the Year in some big, huge like publication, flew
to New York, got the award, came back and two
(26:40):
weeks later he was fired at KBC. And as he
was leaving the building and with all of his crap
in the in the trunk on rodeo drive there he
pulls out and a truck totals his car. It was
it was, you know, just a comedy.
Speaker 4 (26:56):
Right from the pet house to the doghouse. Yeah, right,
But I still think about that.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
I thought, Wow, that guy was one talk show host
of the year and then got fired. It makes you
feel like nobody's ever secure in this business.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
No, it's so radio. That's like one of the most
radio things you know.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
But you know, whenever I hear anybody getting fired from radio,
I always hear I listened to the story, and I
always say to myself, Wow, I've never heard anyone fired
like that in my life.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
The stories get wilder and wilder.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
It's always different. I mean, you know, if you work
in a big company, they send you an email, you
you know, got hr, you get your check and you
leave here. It's like there's like nine different ways that
you've been you know, wiped out.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
And and there's another thing. I used to work at
kalis X, and back to when I was smart, I
used to smoke cigarettes. But I used to I was
standing outside on the little bridge that goes into the station,
a little walkway bridge, and I put my card keyt
in and it didn't work and because it was broken,
you know, there was a sign there. It was broken,
(28:00):
and then the sign got wet and it fell off.
And so I'm out there smoking it. Every single person
who came to try to get in that building. Who
worked at that station when their car key didn't work up?
I guess that's it.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
That's how we're gonna find it.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
That's how we're gonna find out. That's a wrap. That's
an unbelievable But all right, Chris Merrill's coming up immediately
here in a couple of minutes. But also don't forget
that Adam Carolla is going to be at the stage
Brush Cantina on Thursday. You can buy tickets at Adam
Corolla dot com Adamcrolla dot com. And Thompson has the
(28:38):
very popular talk show on You.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Mildly popular Tim. It's also on the iHeartRadio network and
on Spotify and iTunes podcast called The Mark Thompson Show.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Is that a lot more work than going to a
radio station?
Speaker 4 (28:51):
It is way more work, too much work, and Tim, frankly,
the money's not in us.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
So I'm going to be making some decisions in the
new year about.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Is that right?
Speaker 3 (28:59):
Yeah? Soon? Really?
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Well, it's very popular, it's and I am grateful for
the relationship I have to the audience.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Are you gonna fire everybody and just do it yourself?
Speaker 3 (29:09):
I think I like to play in a band.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
You're the same way, you like you like you know
there the Krozier and belly ots and I'm the same way.
So I don't want to I have to do it
with other people. But the you know, it is a
it is a challenge to you know, to make payroll
every month.
Speaker 2 (29:25):
I bet it is. But it's that it's at the
Mark Thompson Show.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
That's right on YouTube, the Mark Thompson Show. And it's
the Mark Thompson Show on the iHeartRadio network, in Spotify,
et cetera. And how many followers or one hundred forty
thousand that's a lot debscribers.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
Yeah, that's huge.
Speaker 3 (29:39):
That's good. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
And Krozier has a book coming out? Is that gonna
come out this year?
Speaker 13 (29:47):
I got to write my own book. That's what I
have to do. I mean, I got this one that
Jen got me. It was through AI should just put
in a bunch of details, and I'm just like and
and reading from it. There's a whole chapter in there
about working with you and on this show. That's great
and it's incredibly accurate of what it says about you.
Speaker 7 (30:05):
Really, Yeah, it's it's crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
How how how on it is what what's the title
of the book?
Speaker 7 (30:11):
Uh from the Nuts of a Newsman.
Speaker 13 (30:13):
Nuts of a Newsman. Yeah, because I because I get
I eat like nuts. I eat all the broken ones
first before.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
Yeah, the OCD kicks it.
Speaker 7 (30:22):
That's it. That's what it's all about.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Yeah, I'm OCD. When it comes to the garage, I
constantly am trying to tweak it and fix it. And
my wife and daughter are like, it looks great. Everything's
into the place. I'm like, no, no, it's not there yet.
It's not quite there yet. I got to move this
box over here and this box over there. All the
boxes they're numbered, they're all computerized.
Speaker 3 (30:41):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I can get to anything in my life in eight seconds.
But I'm still not happy with it. It's I don't
think I ever will be.
Speaker 13 (30:48):
I'm redoing my launch room and I had to tear
out the wall behind the washer and the dryer because
I'm going to redo all the plumbing ands and stuff
in there in the wall. And I told Jen, I says,
it's gonna take a minute, becare Once I get the
wall off, I have to look at it and really
figure out exactly what.
Speaker 7 (31:05):
I'm doing with my OCD. Before I even touch it again.
So there's a whole big bare wall right now.
Speaker 3 (31:09):
That's the same.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
The washingt dryer is still working.
Speaker 7 (31:11):
Well, yeah, everything's still hooked up because that's my OCD.
Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yeah, real quickly. When we were my wife was pregnant
in two thousand and five, I smartly decided to remodel
the kitchen while she was pregnant, which is a good idea.
And I was gonna they dropped off the dryer and
I said to my wife, I go, I don't want
to wait a week to have this guy come and
hook it up. Let's hook it up. I said, put
your finger over the gas, the natural gas, and then
(31:37):
I'll quickly attach it to the dryer. And she's She goes, Tim,
I'm eight months pregnant, I said, but there's very little
PSI on that gas. You could hold it with You
could hold it with your tongue if you needed to.
All Right, we gotta get out of here. It's Conna
and Thompson Krozier. Stay tuned for Chris Meryl next right
