Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's quite a weekend this weekend, after learning that Sam
Rubin from Channel five KTLA died on Friday from a
heart attack. They're reporting it. Really it struck me because
we've known him so long, we've known him so well,
he's got so much energy. We were just with him
on Yeah, he was just on ktl A the day
before that was that. I mean, it does make you say,

(00:21):
while life is precious, while, why am I putting stuff off?
I mean I even thought about them. I'm I'm like thinking, oh,
I'm going to wait ten years to do that because
I'm busy. Yep, I don't know. It does make you
rethink things, and certainly with it being a special weekend
for mothers too. You know, these things you appreciate the

(00:42):
time you've got with the people that you love and
who are close to you. But what I couldn't get
over was the suddenness, and was the fact that we
were just with the guy. We were just with him
down at Disneyland on our twentieth anniversary and we had
him on many times on this show, but he had

(01:04):
us on his show then and it was Sisiny who's
out sick today? And it was Tanya and it was
myself and there he was, and he was He was
even joking about how we got there right at the end,
because we went from Chalk to Disneyland and we got there,
I think right as he was wrapping up his broadcast,
and he was kind of making a joke that we

(01:24):
timed it so we'd be right at the end and
make him wait a little bit. But he always had
that sense of humor. Yeah he did. And here is
part of that conversation that we just had less than
two weeks ago.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
Look who's here?

Speaker 1 (01:37):
I mean, this is it. I saw you, I saw
your purple jacket, and I was drawn towards it. Here
you go, your grape jacket.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
So this is the we're celebrating the radio shit.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
At the radio show. So twenty years. Can you believe that?
Of on Airthryn Seecres? My obviously my career I owe
to you. It started here locally at KTLA Channel five.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
But here's the thing. Did you ever imagine? And we'll
start with the afternoon show at started nine eight point seven,
then migrating to the Kiss Show, and then it just
blow was up in the most wonderful way.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
That was just a few days ago. That energy is
what people kept saying and celebrating and talking about. He
had a uniqueness about him and he had lived everything.
There was no script, there was no copy, there were
no notes. And what I would he would make me laugh.
What are you gonna wound up?

Speaker 2 (02:16):
Like?

Speaker 1 (02:16):
This is exact energy that he had and where he
did Tanya? Remember he say? And then Tanya, what did
you say? Would you say? Would you say that Ryan
is happier when you're around? Did he do things like that? Yeah?
When you say, you know, he did do that false
sett of sort of wind up which always made me laugh.

(02:37):
But he had that energy about him, and he actually
he brought up being Tanya's former matchmaker. He loved the credit.
He loved it and he deserved it.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
Listen, Sistney's love life always stable Tanya. As you recall,
I fixed up Tanya once brilliantly, and how once brilliantly.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
She's still with the same guy, no different guys and
brilliant Well he was, okay.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
How is the love life now the best it's ever been?
But I will say your matchmaking abilities.

Speaker 1 (03:07):
Were a part that was him.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Remember he said to me, you know who's going to
replace Katie? Parron American idol. I said, we haven't decided
to do you have any good ideas? He said, I
have the best idea, and it would be me.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
I knew that.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, And he asked about Whell fortune. We were just
with him to listen.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Here's what my spies tell me. My spies tell me
that even though the wheel thing starts in the fall,
Ryan in the offices now of wheel practicing.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
Correct your spies, Are you have good sources?

Speaker 2 (03:41):
It's good?

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Oh yeah, this I'm taking this very seriously. It's a
big deal.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Are you going to do some practice shows or you
just want to get in and do it?

Speaker 1 (03:48):
No, no, I will do practice show.

Speaker 2 (03:50):
We should be practice guests.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
You want to come practice guests for no cash and pride,
absolutely for no cash and prize for fun. All right,
that's the voice for fun. Yeah, that's beyond vintage Sam
that we celebrate who will be so missed. And we
just loved him on our TVs. And like you said,
when you have a routine and you see somebody every morning,
or you listen to somebody every morning and they're not there,

(04:12):
it's weird. It doesn't feel like things are okay or right,
and they will not feel that way for a long time.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
It's exactly like it's his family that it's not. They're
not like your actual family, but you feel like they
are your family because you see them every single day.

Speaker 1 (04:26):
You do feel like you know them. And on a
show like that, in the morning show, they get a
chance to talk. I mean, his kids grew up on
the show. I remember seeing his kids on the show
over the years as they grew up. They do little
bits and things on the KTLA morning news. All right,
let's come back shift gears here one at two point seven,
kiss have them. We celebrate Sam Rubin here in Los Angeles.

(04:47):
I do have a morning hack for you in a second.
