out bottom of the third. Yankees are up. Dodgers seem unstoppable,
tim they do, but stop. It's close. It's close. It's

very preliminary information. That is that is that we don't know,
just don't know. Dodgers Mookie Betts, I think messed up
this play in the outfield. It was a well hit

it was over his head and he had no shot.

I wanted to tell.
Speaker 8 (05:31):
You yesterday, but I just I felt all floopy.
Speaker 7 (05:34):
And I think it's interesting that when somebody is sort
of ditsy or looks like they're rambling on that they
don't have a brain and they don't know what.
Speaker 12 (05:45):
They're talking about.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Well I do.
Speaker 5 (05:47):
She continued to work well into the Odds, ultimately retiring
from acting in twenty eleven.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
She was the best Terry Garr. I don't know how
old she was, but she was nine seventy nine.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
The I did a sketch for a podcast with her.
It was about ten years ago, right, and she was
really diminished physically. You really felt bad for her, but
while she was still lovely and talented, and you know,
it was just I did. The only thing that was
tough was to watch her have to push through obvious
(06:21):
physical challenges.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
You know she was great, all right.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
That is our celebrity moment. We do it every single
two days.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I didn't realize that. Yeah, it was now that you
mention it.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Sure, and it's being brought to you by Advanced Hair
one day treatment, life changing results. Make your appointment today
at Advanced haair dot com. Dodgers two Yankees one dot
Yankees have bases loaded in the bottom of the third
of one out. So we might come back and tell
you a much different score than we're talking about right now.
Maybe not. Here's a pop up. There's a pop up,
(06:56):
two outs, bases loaded bottom of the third to one. Dodgers,
Go Dodgers.
Speaker 13 (07:02):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun You're on DEMYO from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
It's Conway Show.
Speaker 2 (07:09):
Mark what happened when I left? The bases were loaded.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Base they're not loaded anymore. Yankees five, Dodgers two.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute. So somebody hit a
grand Hitanny O.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
God grand slam, so the two. So the Yankees are
now ahead. Yep, the Yankees win tonight. They win the
World Series.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
So now that's not true. That's not how it works
because they don't have it. They've not won even one game.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, I don't know how it works. I thought, whoever
they said, whoever wins Game four is winning the World Series.
So yeah, Monthy's up at bat. Dodgers two, Yankees five. Yeah,
and it looks freezing there in New York. It was
raining earlier, was it? They just hit Mounsie I think Krozier.
It snowed on Mount Baldy last night. That doesn't surprise me. Yeah,
(07:57):
it's it's like a like a quarter inch or half finish.
Speaker 14 (08:00):
We were talking earlier about how the rain came down
in Claremont. It moved out from where you were at,
and it was it left almost as quickly as it
got there.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah, I ten minutes and it was gone. I was
at Low's when it hit, and it was there for
maybe five minutes. But it sounded like a freight train
hitting the roof. You know, the Lows and the home
depot of that roof were a lot of his skylights
and it just banged bang bang by bang bang bang
but ban bang by ban bang bang. Wow, he got out.
Double play? That sucks, all right, middle middle of the
(08:31):
fourth inning, Dodgers to Yankees five. This is just brutal, dude,
this is this could be the beginning.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Of the end.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Well no, there they could drop could be no. As
you said, they have to win four games.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
He's saved.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Oh he's safe. I'd look at that again. I'd look
at waitbitte that that that uh that guy who was
it is the kiky Hey, k wait a minute? Uh
say safe safe on first?
Speaker 15 (09:01):
He's saved by a mile. How did they had the
ref blow that one? Come on, blue, Yeah, come on
with all you blue Blue.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
He's safe safe on first. That's great. Okay, So the
Yankee salt they had a double play, they did not.
They're lucky to get one out.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
All right.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Let's get some other news that us while we're watching
this Dodger game. It's tough to work here while you're
watching the Dodgers could win the World Series, but we're
keeping it. It's like watching it with friends, right, Mark,
absolutely Krozier, step Fu Angel Bellio.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
One of the things that I think is so much
fun is to listen to people who really have you know,
been Dodgers fans a long time, and you really have
a lot of emotion and it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
So Dodgers are going to stay at bat here safe
at first. Two outske A Hernandez safe on first. That's
great news, all right. Prop thirty six, I don't know
about it. Let's find out.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
You've likely seen the videos smash and grabs. Employees, hair, rhymes, pain,
customers watch.
Speaker 14 (10:09):
We are afraid to come to work every day.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
This grocery store worker is just one of many on
the front lines of what has become a constant and
well publicized retail theft. Bat It's only getting worse, we
agreed to conceal.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Wait, what, it's only getting worse? Is that true? I
thought these smash and grabs were subsiding.
Speaker 14 (10:29):
It's only getting worse.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Only getting worse.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
I mean, statistically it might be going down, but for
this lady's world, it might be going up.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah, And I think statistics go out the door. It's
just how you feel about it.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Of course. Of course you're right about that and.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
How your businesses affected. Like if your home was robbed,
you don't care about stats. Yeah, right, exactly, You've been robbed.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
We agreed to conceal her identity to protect her job.
Speaker 14 (10:51):
We're just broken.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
She felt compelled to speak out on behalf of her
co workers showing us videos.
Speaker 14 (10:56):
They know if the police even come that they're just
taken off the property in which they turn right back
around and come back.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
She says, the videos don't show the reality retail fest.
Speaker 11 (11:06):
Assalts black guys restraining orders.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
A CBS News California data analysis reveals shoplifting is at
its highest level since the nineties, though the shoplifting spike
varies by county, with increases in some large counties like
Los Angeles, Salamita, and Sacramento and decreases in others like
San Francisco, San Bernardino, and Ventura.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Well, you know, Mark, you're a big fan. You worked
in San Francisco for quite some time. I will say
this then, I'll ask you a question. It's an old
radio crutch. Let me ask you a question, but let
me don't make a comment. It's the most beautiful city
I've ever seen in my life. That being said, is
it as bad as people say with the crime in
the filth?
Speaker 4 (11:47):
I think while they're working on getting it better, like
it's going the right direction, I think it is as bad.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Really, I really do. It's got a really bad rap.
I'll tell you that I still love to go there.
I love it.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
It's a beautiful city, as you say, and there's still
a lot of great things to do. And it's not
as though, you know, you're never safe or whatever I mean.
But I do feel as though it's gotten out of control.
And that's why that whole community that's happening here in
LA is going against you know, progressive prosecutors. And you know,
I said, this is a very strong law and order period,
(12:21):
and you know me, I'm in the same category you
are law and order.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I am law and order.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
But I will tell you that San Francisco has let
it go too far for too long, and so they're
breaking back. But yeah, it's it's not it's not a
good place. I mean when you've got homeless. It's also
you know, homeless meets crime, meets all of these things together.
It's just very hard to be a business person, a
small business person in an environment like that.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
One of my favorite times going to San Francisco. It
was probably the mid eighties, and I had a girlfriend
that was fairly new. She was new to me, I
was new to her. We were new to each other,
didn't really know each other.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
A lot of newness, that's right.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
And we were going to fly and she said, what
are we doing for New Year's And I paniced because
I had no plans, nothing, and so I got I
got a I went to TWA because I got this
every once in a while, you know, you get. I
was with the t the TVWA credit card, and with
that credit card, they send you deals. And there was
(13:27):
a seven forty seven that they were repositioning on New
Year's Eve and they were flying it from a lax
to San Francisco, and they were selling tickets for twenty
five dollars because the plane was empty and they just
need to reposition it. And so they sent out like
a weekly letter, and I saw that in the letter,
(13:47):
and I bought two tickets and we got on at
around four o'clock in the afternoon on a seven forty
seven took off out of lax went to San Francisco
for the weekend. It was freezing, it was raining, and
you bundled up and you went from one block to
another block, from a bar to a coffee house to
a you know, a coffee shop, to another bar to
(14:08):
another coffee house. And it's it was one of the
great weekends of all time, just being cold and bundled
up and walking through that city, well was raining.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Oh wow, what a great story. It was great.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
And I remember San Francisco that way. I haven't been
back since.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Yeah, it's it still has some great texture to the
life there. But I'll tell you something else.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Just I mean, esthetically, it's the most beautiful city I've
ever been to.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
It's done. There's a postcard in every corner. You just
can't you keep taking your camera out for everything. Where
all the hills. I mean, just a dramatic, exciting place
to be. But the tech bros ruined it too. The
tech bros came in. How did they ruin it? Because
they drove up the price of everything. They came in
and they just steamrolled everything that was there. Then you
know again, initially it was a sugar high for San
(14:50):
Francisco because you had all this new money that came in.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
But then what happens. No one can afford anything.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Now you can't afford a condo, you can't afford an apartment,
you can't afford anything because the price of everything is
just extraordinary.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
So are you a tech bro I'm I'm sure as
hell not now.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
But the biggest fight came after the pandemic, coinciding with
the fetanyl crisis and peak homelessness in California.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Okay, we'll come back and we'll investigate a little more
about what's happening with Proposition thirty six. It seems to
be important to try to get crime down here in
the state of California. Dodgers to Yankees five in the
fourth inning. At the bottom of the fourth inning, five
to two Yankees.
Speaker 13 (15:30):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Don't run Dodgers, ding dog with these Dodgers. Will Smith,
the Prince of bel Air. Yeah, just hit a home
run five to three, right out of the park. And
he's not been hitting well this season. I mean this series,
he's been great on defense, but not a lot of
offense until just now ding Dog. So Dodgers are still losing.
(16:03):
But it's now Yankees five, Dodgers three, and the game
moves on ding Dong. With these Dodgers, I'll tell you,
these Dodgers are very good. I mean, he never give up.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
They seem much better than the Yankees team.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
No offense to the Yankees fans, but I just see
I see them when I could, they could very easily
win tonight, even know they're behind five to three.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I think you're right. All right, let's send a little
more information on Proposition thirty six. Let's see if we
can vote on this thing. And they control a little
of the.
Speaker 6 (16:34):
Crime here after the pandemic coinciding with a fetanyl crisis
and peak homelessness in California, so there's an intersection there.
According to the data, Sacramento County, DA Tinhoe in San
Jose mayor Matt Mayhan are among a number of elected
Democrats who support Prop. Thirty six, which increases penalties for
repeat retail theft.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Oh so, Democrats and Republicans are on board with this.
With the proposition thirty six. Have you encovering it on
your program?
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I have not. No, no, Well, it's we're kind of
more of a oh, you're not national show. I forgot.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
I forgot you're international. You're like you're you're broadcast in
the universe. We have Are you covering Mars? We have
an active you don't mock me. Conway, how dare you
are you covering the global war? The Mars warming?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I'm not familiar with it. We'll have to get on it.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Neptune and Mars are warming up?
Speaker 2 (17:23):
You guys?
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Are you guys on that?
Speaker 2 (17:26):
How about this?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Elon Mosk said, the first thing we got to do
when get to Mars is heat the planet up. It's
too cold. A whole earthlings get there, and the first
thing we do is see, yeah, let's say heat this sucker.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Up a little. You can mess with the climate.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Let's bring a little climate science to this.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
This little ball and creates a new treatment mandated felony
for repeat drug convictions.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
That initiative has nothing to do with retail theft.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
This has everything to do with retail theft.
Speaker 6 (17:53):
Govinor Newsom recent Wait, why that.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Initiative has nothing to do with retail theft.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Okay, this has everything to do with retail theft, seems
like the opposite.
Speaker 6 (18:04):
Governor Newsom recently passed a package of crime bills focused
on organized retail theft and has been critical of the
drug component of PROMP thirty six th.
Speaker 16 (18:12):
It cuts to the core of the cycle of serious addiction,
retail theft, and unsheltered homelessness.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
And it may Hannan Ho took us to what they
described as a microcosm of the bigger problem across the
street from a target shopping center where shelves are lined
with lock cabinets tents lined the Guadaloupe River in downtown
San Jose. That's where we met Richard.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
They have a they show you go steal sho.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
You know, I don't know what's happened to San Jose.
I don't know if it's still you know, San Jose
like I remember it. But again, one of the most
beautiful cities I've ever seen. San Jose is awesome. It's
just it's just you know, downtown San Jose. And they
got a great airport there too. Yeah, and they flourished.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
That's the reason that their airport and public transport, I
mean he's gotten.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
So that's right.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Good.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Have you seen the new Apple headquarters that they have interview,
I've seen photos and video of it, but I've not
I've flown over campus. Yeah, but it made it looks spectacular.
Speaker 9 (19:07):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
He acknowledges some of his unhoused neighbors do steal from
nearby stores, and he says repeat misdemeanor tickets are not
at a turrent, whether they're for shoplifting, drug use, or
unauthorized camping.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Keep getting unauthorized what gambling is that?
Speaker 2 (19:20):
What she's camping?
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Unauthorized camping?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Okay, to keep getting tickets, you keep hitting kickts, you
keep getting kicks out here.
Speaker 6 (19:25):
Supporters of Prop thirty six say it's needed to fix
the unintended consequences of Prop. Forty seven, which California voters
passed ten years ago. That ballot measure made hard drug
possession and theft under nine hundred and fifty dollars a
misdemeanor instead of a felony misdemeanor.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Freddy seth is a site release offense.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
Which means even repeat offenders generally walk away with a
ticket and a notice to appear in court.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
So we have a Soccermentow often do they appear in court?
You think, Yeah, guy steals seven hundred dollars for the
crap gets a ticket.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Don't see that as a real life gone Yeah.
Speaker 16 (19:56):
Over thirty thousand bench warns for people that never you've
show up.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Wow, thirty thousand bench warrants that are still valid, still
in existence out there, and nobody's showing up.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
Data shows following Prop forty seven, property crime in California
surpassed the national average for the first time and stayed
there ever since.
Speaker 16 (20:18):
We had individuals in our city who were arrested or
sighted over fifteen twenty twenty five times.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
Under Prop thirty six, after two misdemeanor theft convictions, the
court can begin aggregating or adding up the value of
all their thefts, which could lead to a felony charge.
But a judge can also offer treatment instead of jail.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
All right, so look at Prop thirty six. Prop thirty
six might be able to help us out here, all right,
real quickly, before we got a break, it snowed in
Big Bear.
Speaker 10 (20:49):
At the higher elevations, the rain turned to snow. This
is the first time it is snowed in the San
Bernardino Mountains This fall. There were heavy snow flurries along
Highway eighteen and in Big Bear, snow did not stick to.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
The ground, snowed for about an hour.
Speaker 10 (21:02):
Temperatures were around thirty five degrees.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Wow, we're back, baby, Enough of this ninety ninety five
degrees one hundred and five degrees in the valley. You
know Santa Ana wins nine percent humidity. I think we're
I think we're done for the year. Do you think
we'll get one more blast of hot air?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'm worried about the sant Anna's for sure. Yeah, me too.
They could be cold Santanna's. They don't have to be warm.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
But are you convinced that the heat's over for the year?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You're not.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
I'm you hope it is. I think the heat is
probably done. I have this based on just basic climatology.
But I don't feel the Santanas are done.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Okay, But you think the one hundred degrees are done
for the year?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
All right?
Speaker 4 (21:45):
Based on nothing? Maybe literally, based on nothing.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Just tell me they're done.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Okay, They're done.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Thank you, Ah, Almighty, maker of heaven and Earth, all
it's seen and unseen. We believe in one Holy Apostolic Church.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I'm going to do it.
Speaker 14 (21:58):
So is the hundred degree heat done?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I think it's done completely, Yeah, I hope so.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
All right, Yankees five Dodgers, three top of the fifth,
two men on for the Dodgers and one out now
one out. There was zero man on first and third
for the Dodgers. Five to three, one out. It's a
nerve wracking game. But we're here with you.
Speaker 13 (22:24):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Mark Thompson's with us, Crosiers with us, his final teas.
There's news cast cast or teas. Te's right, ts ts man,
Let's roll all right, Inglewood. Inglewood has the Clippers, now,
they've got the Chargers, they've got the Rams, the into
(22:52):
It Dome for concerts. They also have the Kia Forum
for concerts. But the local business own owners are complaining
why the business is going away? What because it's so crowded. Oh,
people are shying away. Unless you're going to one of
these events, you don't go into Inglewood. Of course, it's horrible.
(23:14):
Let's find out what's going on here with the people
live out in Inglewood.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
The growing entertainment complex in Inglewood is bringing in thousands
of fans these days, but all these megasporting events and
concerts are taking a toll on local businesses. Order Ashley
mackew on why the increased traffic into town isn't bringing
in the revenue.
Speaker 17 (23:33):
One of my lowest sales days was on Super Bowl Sunday.
Speaker 12 (23:37):
Carolyn Plumber, owner of Sweet Red Peach, was like many
of her other neighboring.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
That sounds like a great place.
Speaker 12 (23:43):
Plumber, owner of Sweet Red.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Peach was Sweet Red Peak, Yeah, good names.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Wow.
Speaker 12 (23:48):
Sweet Red Peach was like many of her other neighboring
Inglewood business owners here on and around Prairie. They all
thought when Sofi Stadium sprung up across the street and
into a dome, not too much further business.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Would be booming.
Speaker 12 (24:01):
But unfortunately that's not been the case.
Speaker 17 (24:04):
I'd literally made under six hundred dollars for the day.
I had to send employees home, and you're just looking around, like,
what in the world.
Speaker 9 (24:14):
My business has dropped about fifty percent? Wow, and now
I'm down to five employees and myself work and add.
Speaker 12 (24:21):
Days between events at the Kia Forum, Sofi Stadium, YouTube Theater,
and now the into it Dome. Local business owners say
the traffic keeps away their loyal customers that keep their
lights on. They say the city even encourages people through
social media posts like this one to stay away when
they anticipate large crowds.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Well, that's not good. So some of those business have
been there, you know, thirty forty years, sure, and now
they're convincing everybody stay out of there when there's an event. No,
No Good.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Says that they were going to get all of this
business influx because of all of this, you know, seems natural.
Centertainment center that was going up seems natural. Yeah, that's
why this is so weird.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Guess this is not happening. No one is saying we
don't want these venues here. What we're saying is plan Accordingly, business.
Speaker 12 (25:02):
Owners are asking for a meeting with the local venue
owners and Inglewood City Mayor James Butts to discuss solutions.
Community activist Yolanda Davidson says nine years ago she brought
up this issue to the mayor before Sofi Stadium was built.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
I asked the mayor that day, what would he do
for Inglewood residents? It's small businesses. I did not receive
the answer. That day and I still have not received
an answer to this day.
Speaker 12 (25:24):
ABC seven has reached out to the city of Inglewood
for common but hasn't heard back yet. Reporting in Inglewood,
Ashley Mackie, ABC seven Eye Witness.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
News, Oh, Man, not good.
Speaker 14 (25:34):
It's not like downtown where you know, Crypto's got everything
right there. It's the parking problem, is what it is
in Inglewood because you're so spread out. Yeah, there's nothing
conducive about going anywhere like after an event at any
of these arenas.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Right, And if you're a local person where there's an
event going on, you stay home. Yeah, you know, yeah,
of course you're out. Yeah, it's got to be a
nightmare for people live down there.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (25:56):
To me, it's just the way it's laid out. It's
not conducive to any of those businesses.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
I don't know what.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I don't know what they wanted. I mean, I understand
what they always do. They always tell business owners, don't worry,
we're going to meet with you. It's going to be great.
We're gonna have strategies, you know, et cetera. And they
of course don't. And then in this case, it's predictable,
I guess by some of those small business owners that
we were going to we meaning the small business owners
were going to get you know, screwed in all of this.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Uh, speaking of small business owners, there's a lot of
people who own and operate subway sandwich places. Oh I
love this shh, I love Subway too, but they're in
a little bit of a wee bit of trouble. We've
bit of trouble with misleading about sandwiches. Sandwiches?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Sandwiches? Swich?
Speaker 11 (26:37):
Subway facing scrutiny in a new proposed class action lawsuit.
The plaintiff an A Tolisan, accusing the restaurant chain of
grossly misleading customers after she bought a steak and cheese
sandwich that the suit says contained two hundred percent less
meat than the heroes depicted in Subway ads.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Oh no, not enough meat in this in the hero sandwich.
Speaker 11 (27:00):
Suit arguing that Subway's actions are especially concerning now that inflation,
food and meat prices are very high, adding many consumers
are struggling financially.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
We Subway what?
Speaker 11 (27:12):
And the suit says other Subway customers have noticed shrinkage
in its sandwiches too.
Speaker 6 (27:17):
This one looks really, really skimpy compared to the picture.
Speaker 11 (27:20):
Similar lawsuits filed in the same court against McDonald's, Wendy's,
and Taco Bell were dismissed last year. NBC News has
reached out to Subway for comment. With more than twenty
thousand US locations, this isn't the first time Subway has
come under fire for not meeting customers' expectations like this.
Mystery meat lawsuit filed in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 6 (27:39):
To California residents sued the restaurant chain, claiming that an
independent test of ingredients revealed that the sandwiches are made
from quote anything but tunea.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah, how about that. I remember that.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
That's that's different. That's different.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
But this one tuna sandwich had no tuna.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Yeah, this one's going to get thrown out because that's great.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
But that was different. Yeah, that was just complete.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
You know, that was rawed, complete ripoff.
Speaker 9 (28:03):
Always a bad day, and we have to launch an
independent test to prove that your two night is in fact.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (28:07):
A separate lawsuit argued Subway's famous footbong sandwiches were not
actually a foot long. Both of those cases were eventually dismissed.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Yeah, all right, So that's a subway. Now, let's talk
about McDonald's. When you go to McDonald's, Chancellor fifty to
fifty that their ice cream machine's not working. I don't
know what the hell's going on, but the ice cream
machine is never working at McDonald's. Well, maybe there's a
new solution here.
Speaker 16 (28:34):
Donald's mcflurry machine saga is finally over.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
I didn't realize her was there was. I know who
that is. It's Glenn Walker and he's I don't know
what he's doing where he's not going to say to McDonald's.
He's on some kind of crazy diet.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
I know it's I.
Speaker 9 (28:48):
Hadn't known too until I heard from a number of
our viewers who said, no, this is really a big thing,
And apparently it is enough so that there's even a
website mcbroken dot com.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yes, I am been aware of this for the last
ten year, that these ice cream machines are constantly broken.
Speaker 9 (29:03):
That tracks broken mcflurry machines. People are very upset about it.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Now.
Speaker 9 (29:07):
There's a key reason the mcflury machines often seem to
be down when people visit, and that's because the franchisees
can't fix them on their own. There is a digital
lock on these machines. That means only the manufacturer, a
company called Taylor, has access to be able to repair them,
and at least so it seems, the company doesn't seem
to do that in very timely fashion. So many people
(29:29):
who go and looking for a mcfluury are often disappointed.
But I am here to tell you those days are
finally over.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
How snobby are those guys at KTLA where they both say,
from what we understand, we don't go there, but the
mcflurry machines aren't working.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
How there they over?
Speaker 9 (29:46):
A copyright exemption took effect today that now allows franchisees
to get around the digital lock repairs on the mcflury
machines on their own. This is an exemption that have
been sought by consumer advocates who had been responding to that.
They said it was the vast scope of complaints about
these machines and that something needed to be done, and
(30:07):
hence a court issued that narrow copyright exemption that does
allow people to at least do modest repairs.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
A good good You had to go to McCourt, Yeah,
that's what you had.
Speaker 14 (30:17):
And I always remember mcbroken dot com which gives you
a map wherever you are of any of the broken
ice cream machines at McDonald's right anywhere, it's great, and
they'll give you an alternative where there's a Wendy's nearby.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
My we use that all the time, you know, because
the one near me doesn't work. I got to go
to the other one near Costco. That's fantastic where I
know they have hotter fries. I know the fat better
fast food places and the worst fat because they're all
independently a lot of we're independently owned and management has
a lot to do with it. So I know the
one on Victory and Burbank has the greatest, hottest fries
(30:51):
and the most likely that their mcflurry machine is working.
They get two great grades.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
For me.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
It's a little tiny McDonald's right across from Costco. Hot fries,
mcflurir machine working. That's a good way. I eat like
a twenty year old who's not going to turn thirty.
All right, we gotta get out of here. Yankees five
Dodgers four in the fifth inning. Go Dodgers. Maybe we'll
(31:17):
celebrate tonight a Dodger World series. Mo Kelly, also a
huge Dodger fan, up next right here on KFI AM
six forty Conway Show on demand on the iHeart Radio app. Now,
you can always hear us live on KFI AM six
forty four to seven pm Monday through Friday, and anytime
on demand on the iHeart Radio app
It's kf I AM six forty and you're listening to
the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio apps. Dodgers
up two to one of the third inning. There's one
out bottom of the third. Yankees are up. Dodgers seem unstoppable,
tim they do, but stop. It's close. It's close. It's
(00:21):
close right now. Yeah, it's not close in games, but
it's certainly close in the score.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (00:28):
The story is, we don't know much, but there's a
car over an embankment near Dodger Stadium. Let's find out
if there's any more details.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
It's near Dodger Stadium, LACD firefighters from one hundred feet
off the road. No word on whether anyone is in
this car or how it ended up here.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
All right, that's all we know right now. It's early,
very preliminary information. That is that is that we don't know,
just don't know. Dodgers Mookie Betts, I think messed up
this play in the outfield. It was a well hit
ball off the war Yeah, very well hit ball. Maybe
it was over his head and he had no shot.
But the Yankees have been on first and third with
(01:09):
one out in the third inning, so there you go.
We will keep you updated on that score. Terry Garr
has passed away one of my favorite actors. I don't
use the term actress.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah, you don't distinguish like that.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
I do not very PC showbase of you. Thank you,

years old.

one hundred times better.

surprised if some fringe benefit comes along like this, you

Long Lost Mom of Lisa Coudreuz Phoebe on Friends.

It takes place in New York.

I wanted to tell.
Speaker 8 (05:31):
You yesterday, but I just I felt all floopy.
Speaker 7 (05:34):
And I think it's interesting that when somebody is sort
of ditsy or looks like they're rambling on that they
don't have a brain and they don't know what.
Speaker 12 (05:45):
They're talking about.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
Well I do.

She continued to work well into the Odds, ultimately retiring
from acting in twenty eleven.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
She was the best Terry Garr. I don't know how
old she was, but she was nine seventy nine.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
The I did a sketch for a podcast with her.
It was about ten years ago, right, and she was
really diminished physically. You really felt bad for her, but
while she was still lovely and talented, and you know,
it was just I did. The only thing that was
tough was to watch her have to push through obvious
(06:21):
physical challenges.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
You know she was great, all right.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
That is our celebrity moment. We do it every single
two days.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I didn't realize that. Yeah, it was now that you
mention it.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Sure, and it's being brought to you by Advanced Hair
one day treatment, life changing results. Make your appointment today
at Advanced haair dot com. Dodgers two Yankees one dot
Yankees have bases loaded in the bottom of the third
of one out. So we might come back and tell
you a much different score than we're talking about right now.
Maybe not. Here's a pop up. There's a pop up,
(06:56):
two outs, bases loaded bottom of the third to one. Dodgers,
Go Dodgers.
Speaker 13 (07:02):
You're listening to Tim conwaytun You're on DEMYO from KFI
AM six forty.

Base they're not loaded anymore. Yankees five, Dodgers two.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Wait a minute, Wait a minute. So somebody hit a
grand Hitanny O.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
God grand slam, so the two. So the Yankees are
now ahead. Yep, the Yankees win tonight. They win the
World Series.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
So now that's not true. That's not how it works
because they don't have it. They've not won even one game.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Yeah, I don't know how it works. I thought, whoever
they said, whoever wins Game four is winning the World Series.
So yeah, Monthy's up at bat. Dodgers two, Yankees five. Yeah,
and it looks freezing there in New York. It was
raining earlier, was it? They just hit Mounsie I think Krozier.
It snowed on Mount Baldy last night. That doesn't surprise me. Yeah,
(07:57):
it's it's like a like a quarter inch or half finish.
Speaker 14 (08:00):
We were talking earlier about how the rain came down
in Claremont. It moved out from where you were at,
and it was it left almost as quickly as it
got there.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Yeah, I ten minutes and it was gone. I was
at Low's when it hit, and it was there for
maybe five minutes. But it sounded like a freight train
hitting the roof. You know, the Lows and the home
depot of that roof were a lot of his skylights
and it just banged bang bang by bang bang bang
but ban bang by ban bang bang. Wow, he got out.
Double play? That sucks, all right, middle middle of the
(08:31):
fourth inning, Dodgers to Yankees five. This is just brutal, dude,
this is this could be the beginning.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Of the end.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Well no, there they could drop could be no. As
you said, they have to win four games.
Speaker 9 (08:43):
He's saved.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Oh he's safe. I'd look at that again. I'd look
at waitbitte that that that uh that guy who was
it is the kiky Hey, k wait a minute? Uh
say safe safe on first?
Speaker 15 (09:01):
He's saved by a mile. How did they had the
ref blow that one? Come on, blue, Yeah, come on
with all you blue Blue.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
He's safe safe on first. That's great. Okay, So the
Yankee salt they had a double play, they did not.
They're lucky to get one out.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
All right.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Let's get some other news that us while we're watching
this Dodger game. It's tough to work here while you're
watching the Dodgers could win the World Series, but we're
keeping it. It's like watching it with friends, right, Mark,
absolutely Krozier, step Fu Angel Bellio.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
One of the things that I think is so much
fun is to listen to people who really have you know,
been Dodgers fans a long time, and you really have
a lot of emotion and it.
Speaker 2 (09:46):
I love that.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
So Dodgers are going to stay at bat here safe
at first. Two outske A Hernandez safe on first. That's
great news, all right. Prop thirty six, I don't know
about it. Let's find out.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
You've likely seen the videos smash and grabs. Employees, hair, rhymes, pain,
customers watch.
Speaker 14 (10:09):
We are afraid to come to work every day.
Speaker 6 (10:11):
This grocery store worker is just one of many on
the front lines of what has become a constant and
well publicized retail theft. Bat It's only getting worse, we
agreed to conceal.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Wait, what, it's only getting worse? Is that true? I
thought these smash and grabs were subsiding.
Speaker 14 (10:29):
It's only getting worse.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
Only getting worse.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
I mean, statistically it might be going down, but for
this lady's world, it might be going up.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah, And I think statistics go out the door. It's
just how you feel about it.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Of course. Of course you're right about that and.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
How your businesses affected. Like if your home was robbed,
you don't care about stats. Yeah, right, exactly, You've been robbed.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
We agreed to conceal her identity to protect her job.
Speaker 14 (10:51):
We're just broken.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
She felt compelled to speak out on behalf of her
co workers showing us videos.
Speaker 14 (10:56):
They know if the police even come that they're just
taken off the property in which they turn right back
around and come back.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
She says, the videos don't show the reality retail fest.
Speaker 11 (11:06):
Assalts black guys restraining orders.
Speaker 6 (11:09):
A CBS News California data analysis reveals shoplifting is at
its highest level since the nineties, though the shoplifting spike
varies by county, with increases in some large counties like
Los Angeles, Salamita, and Sacramento and decreases in others like
San Francisco, San Bernardino, and Ventura.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Well, you know, Mark, you're a big fan. You worked
in San Francisco for quite some time. I will say
this then, I'll ask you a question. It's an old
radio crutch. Let me ask you a question, but let
me don't make a comment. It's the most beautiful city
I've ever seen in my life. That being said, is
it as bad as people say with the crime in
the filth?
Speaker 4 (11:47):
I think while they're working on getting it better, like
it's going the right direction, I think it is as bad.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Really, I really do. It's got a really bad rap.
I'll tell you that I still love to go there.
I love it.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
It's a beautiful city, as you say, and there's still
a lot of great things to do. And it's not
as though, you know, you're never safe or whatever I mean.
But I do feel as though it's gotten out of control.
And that's why that whole community that's happening here in
LA is going against you know, progressive prosecutors. And you know,
I said, this is a very strong law and order period,
(12:21):
and you know me, I'm in the same category you
are law and order.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
I am law and order.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
But I will tell you that San Francisco has let
it go too far for too long, and so they're
breaking back. But yeah, it's it's not it's not a
good place. I mean when you've got homeless. It's also
you know, homeless meets crime, meets all of these things together.
It's just very hard to be a business person, a
small business person in an environment like that.
Speaker 1 (12:44):
One of my favorite times going to San Francisco. It
was probably the mid eighties, and I had a girlfriend
that was fairly new. She was new to me, I
was new to her. We were new to each other,
didn't really know each other.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
A lot of newness, that's right.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
And we were going to fly and she said, what
are we doing for New Year's And I paniced because
I had no plans, nothing, and so I got I
got a I went to TWA because I got this
every once in a while, you know, you get. I
was with the t the TVWA credit card, and with
that credit card, they send you deals. And there was
(13:27):
a seven forty seven that they were repositioning on New
Year's Eve and they were flying it from a lax
to San Francisco, and they were selling tickets for twenty
five dollars because the plane was empty and they just
need to reposition it. And so they sent out like
a weekly letter, and I saw that in the letter,
(13:47):
and I bought two tickets and we got on at
around four o'clock in the afternoon on a seven forty
seven took off out of lax went to San Francisco
for the weekend. It was freezing, it was raining, and
you bundled up and you went from one block to
another block, from a bar to a coffee house to
a you know, a coffee shop, to another bar to
(14:08):
another coffee house. And it's it was one of the
great weekends of all time, just being cold and bundled
up and walking through that city, well was raining.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Oh wow, what a great story. It was great.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
And I remember San Francisco that way. I haven't been
back since.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
Yeah, it's it still has some great texture to the
life there. But I'll tell you something else.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Just I mean, esthetically, it's the most beautiful city I've
ever been to.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
It's done. There's a postcard in every corner. You just
can't you keep taking your camera out for everything. Where
all the hills. I mean, just a dramatic, exciting place
to be. But the tech bros ruined it too. The
tech bros came in. How did they ruin it? Because
they drove up the price of everything. They came in
and they just steamrolled everything that was there. Then you
know again, initially it was a sugar high for San
(14:50):
Francisco because you had all this new money that came in.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
But then what happens. No one can afford anything.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Now you can't afford a condo, you can't afford an apartment,
you can't afford anything because the price of everything is
just extraordinary.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
So are you a tech bro I'm I'm sure as
hell not now.
Speaker 6 (15:06):
But the biggest fight came after the pandemic, coinciding with
the fetanyl crisis and peak homelessness in California.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Okay, we'll come back and we'll investigate a little more
about what's happening with Proposition thirty six. It seems to
be important to try to get crime down here in
the state of California. Dodgers to Yankees five in the
fourth inning. At the bottom of the fourth inning, five
to two Yankees.
Speaker 13 (15:30):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (15:37):
Don't run Dodgers, ding dog with these Dodgers. Will Smith,
the Prince of bel Air. Yeah, just hit a home
run five to three, right out of the park. And
he's not been hitting well this season. I mean this series,
he's been great on defense, but not a lot of
offense until just now ding Dog. So Dodgers are still losing.
(16:03):
But it's now Yankees five, Dodgers three, and the game
moves on ding Dong. With these Dodgers, I'll tell you,
these Dodgers are very good. I mean, he never give up.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
They seem much better than the Yankees team.
Speaker 4 (16:18):
No offense to the Yankees fans, but I just see
I see them when I could, they could very easily
win tonight, even know they're behind five to three.
Speaker 2 (16:25):
I think you're right.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
I think you're right. All right, let's send a little
more information on Proposition thirty six. Let's see if we
can vote on this thing. And they control a little
of the.
Speaker 6 (16:34):
Crime here after the pandemic coinciding with a fetanyl crisis
and peak homelessness in California, so there's an intersection there.
According to the data, Sacramento County, DA Tinhoe in San
Jose mayor Matt Mayhan are among a number of elected
Democrats who support Prop. Thirty six, which increases penalties for
repeat retail theft.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Oh so, Democrats and Republicans are on board with this.
With the proposition thirty six. Have you encovering it on
your program?
Speaker 2 (16:59):
I have not. No, no, Well, it's we're kind of
more of a oh, you're not national show. I forgot.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
I forgot you're international. You're like you're you're broadcast in
the universe. We have Are you covering Mars? We have
an active you don't mock me. Conway, how dare you
are you covering the global war? The Mars warming?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I'm not familiar with it. We'll have to get on it.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Neptune and Mars are warming up?
Speaker 2 (17:23):
You guys?
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Are you guys on that?
Speaker 2 (17:26):
How about this?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Elon Mosk said, the first thing we got to do
when get to Mars is heat the planet up. It's
too cold. A whole earthlings get there, and the first
thing we do is see, yeah, let's say heat this sucker.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Up a little. You can mess with the climate.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Let's bring a little climate science to this.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
This little ball and creates a new treatment mandated felony
for repeat drug convictions.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
That initiative has nothing to do with retail theft.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
This has everything to do with retail theft.
Speaker 6 (17:53):
Govinor Newsom recent Wait, why that.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Initiative has nothing to do with retail theft.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Okay, this has everything to do with retail theft, seems
like the opposite.
Speaker 6 (18:04):
Governor Newsom recently passed a package of crime bills focused
on organized retail theft and has been critical of the
drug component of PROMP thirty six th.
Speaker 16 (18:12):
It cuts to the core of the cycle of serious addiction,
retail theft, and unsheltered homelessness.
Speaker 6 (18:18):
And it may Hannan Ho took us to what they
described as a microcosm of the bigger problem across the
street from a target shopping center where shelves are lined
with lock cabinets tents lined the Guadaloupe River in downtown
San Jose. That's where we met Richard.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
They have a they show you go steal sho.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
You know, I don't know what's happened to San Jose.
I don't know if it's still you know, San Jose
like I remember it. But again, one of the most
beautiful cities I've ever seen. San Jose is awesome. It's
just it's just you know, downtown San Jose. And they
got a great airport there too. Yeah, and they flourished.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
That's the reason that their airport and public transport, I
mean he's gotten.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
So that's right.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Good.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Have you seen the new Apple headquarters that they have interview,
I've seen photos and video of it, but I've not
I've flown over campus. Yeah, but it made it looks spectacular.
Speaker 9 (19:07):
Wow.
Speaker 6 (19:07):
He acknowledges some of his unhoused neighbors do steal from
nearby stores, and he says repeat misdemeanor tickets are not
at a turrent, whether they're for shoplifting, drug use, or
unauthorized camping.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Keep getting unauthorized what gambling is that?
Speaker 2 (19:20):
What she's camping?
Speaker 6 (19:21):
Unauthorized camping?
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Okay, to keep getting tickets, you keep hitting kickts, you
keep getting kicks out here.
Speaker 6 (19:25):
Supporters of Prop thirty six say it's needed to fix
the unintended consequences of Prop. Forty seven, which California voters
passed ten years ago. That ballot measure made hard drug
possession and theft under nine hundred and fifty dollars a
misdemeanor instead of a felony misdemeanor.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Freddy seth is a site release offense.
Speaker 6 (19:42):
Which means even repeat offenders generally walk away with a
ticket and a notice to appear in court.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
So we have a Soccermentow often do they appear in court?
You think, Yeah, guy steals seven hundred dollars for the
crap gets a ticket.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
Don't see that as a real life gone Yeah.
Speaker 16 (19:56):
Over thirty thousand bench warns for people that never you've
show up.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Wow, thirty thousand bench warrants that are still valid, still
in existence out there, and nobody's showing up.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
Data shows following Prop forty seven, property crime in California
surpassed the national average for the first time and stayed
there ever since.
Speaker 16 (20:18):
We had individuals in our city who were arrested or
sighted over fifteen twenty twenty five times.
Speaker 6 (20:23):
Under Prop thirty six, after two misdemeanor theft convictions, the
court can begin aggregating or adding up the value of
all their thefts, which could lead to a felony charge.
But a judge can also offer treatment instead of jail.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
All right, so look at Prop thirty six. Prop thirty
six might be able to help us out here, all right,
real quickly, before we got a break, it snowed in
Big Bear.
Speaker 10 (20:49):
At the higher elevations, the rain turned to snow. This
is the first time it is snowed in the San
Bernardino Mountains This fall. There were heavy snow flurries along
Highway eighteen and in Big Bear, snow did not stick to.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
The ground, snowed for about an hour.
Speaker 10 (21:02):
Temperatures were around thirty five degrees.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Wow, we're back, baby, Enough of this ninety ninety five
degrees one hundred and five degrees in the valley. You
know Santa Ana wins nine percent humidity. I think we're
I think we're done for the year. Do you think
we'll get one more blast of hot air?
Speaker 2 (21:21):
I'm worried about the sant Anna's for sure. Yeah, me too.
They could be cold Santanna's. They don't have to be warm.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
But are you convinced that the heat's over for the year?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You're not.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
I'm you hope it is. I think the heat is
probably done. I have this based on just basic climatology.
But I don't feel the Santanas are done.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Okay, But you think the one hundred degrees are done
for the year?
Speaker 2 (21:45):
All right?
Speaker 4 (21:45):
Based on nothing? Maybe literally, based on nothing.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Just tell me they're done.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Okay, They're done.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Thank you, Ah, Almighty, maker of heaven and Earth, all
it's seen and unseen. We believe in one Holy Apostolic Church.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I'm going to do it.
Speaker 14 (21:58):
So is the hundred degree heat done?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
I think it's done completely, Yeah, I hope so.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
All right, Yankees five Dodgers, three top of the fifth,
two men on for the Dodgers and one out now
one out. There was zero man on first and third
for the Dodgers. Five to three, one out. It's a
nerve wracking game. But we're here with you.
Speaker 13 (22:24):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Mark Thompson's with us, Crosiers with us, his final teas.
There's news cast cast or teas. Te's right, ts ts man,
Let's roll all right, Inglewood. Inglewood has the Clippers, now,
they've got the Chargers, they've got the Rams, the into
(22:52):
It Dome for concerts. They also have the Kia Forum
for concerts. But the local business own owners are complaining
why the business is going away? What because it's so crowded. Oh,
people are shying away. Unless you're going to one of
these events, you don't go into Inglewood. Of course, it's horrible.
(23:14):
Let's find out what's going on here with the people
live out in Inglewood.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
The growing entertainment complex in Inglewood is bringing in thousands
of fans these days, but all these megasporting events and
concerts are taking a toll on local businesses. Order Ashley
mackew on why the increased traffic into town isn't bringing
in the revenue.
Speaker 17 (23:33):
One of my lowest sales days was on Super Bowl Sunday.
Speaker 12 (23:37):
Carolyn Plumber, owner of Sweet Red Peach, was like many
of her other neighboring.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
That sounds like a great place.
Speaker 12 (23:43):
Plumber, owner of Sweet Red.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Peach was Sweet Red Peak, Yeah, good names.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Wow.
Speaker 12 (23:48):
Sweet Red Peach was like many of her other neighboring
Inglewood business owners here on and around Prairie. They all
thought when Sofi Stadium sprung up across the street and
into a dome, not too much further business.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Would be booming.
Speaker 12 (24:01):
But unfortunately that's not been the case.
Speaker 17 (24:04):
I'd literally made under six hundred dollars for the day.
I had to send employees home, and you're just looking around, like,
what in the world.
Speaker 9 (24:14):
My business has dropped about fifty percent? Wow, and now
I'm down to five employees and myself work and add.
Speaker 12 (24:21):
Days between events at the Kia Forum, Sofi Stadium, YouTube Theater,
and now the into it Dome. Local business owners say
the traffic keeps away their loyal customers that keep their
lights on. They say the city even encourages people through
social media posts like this one to stay away when
they anticipate large crowds.
Speaker 1 (24:38):
Well, that's not good. So some of those business have
been there, you know, thirty forty years, sure, and now
they're convincing everybody stay out of there when there's an event. No,
No Good.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
Says that they were going to get all of this
business influx because of all of this, you know, seems natural.
Centertainment center that was going up seems natural. Yeah, that's
why this is so weird.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Guess this is not happening. No one is saying we
don't want these venues here. What we're saying is plan Accordingly, business.
Speaker 12 (25:02):
Owners are asking for a meeting with the local venue
owners and Inglewood City Mayor James Butts to discuss solutions.
Community activist Yolanda Davidson says nine years ago she brought
up this issue to the mayor before Sofi Stadium was built.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
I asked the mayor that day, what would he do
for Inglewood residents? It's small businesses. I did not receive
the answer. That day and I still have not received
an answer to this day.
Speaker 12 (25:24):
ABC seven has reached out to the city of Inglewood
for common but hasn't heard back yet. Reporting in Inglewood,
Ashley Mackie, ABC seven Eye Witness.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
News, Oh, Man, not good.
Speaker 14 (25:34):
It's not like downtown where you know, Crypto's got everything
right there. It's the parking problem, is what it is
in Inglewood because you're so spread out. Yeah, there's nothing
conducive about going anywhere like after an event at any
of these arenas.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Right, And if you're a local person where there's an
event going on, you stay home. Yeah, you know, yeah,
of course you're out. Yeah, it's got to be a
nightmare for people live down there.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (25:56):
To me, it's just the way it's laid out. It's
not conducive to any of those businesses.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
I don't know what.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
I don't know what they wanted. I mean, I understand
what they always do. They always tell business owners, don't worry,
we're going to meet with you. It's going to be great.
We're gonna have strategies, you know, et cetera. And they
of course don't. And then in this case, it's predictable,
I guess by some of those small business owners that
we were going to we meaning the small business owners
were going to get you know, screwed in all of this.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Uh, speaking of small business owners, there's a lot of
people who own and operate subway sandwich places. Oh I
love this shh, I love Subway too, but they're in
a little bit of a wee bit of trouble. We've
bit of trouble with misleading about sandwiches. Sandwiches?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Is that right?
Speaker 1 (26:36):
Sandwiches? Swich?
Speaker 11 (26:37):
Subway facing scrutiny in a new proposed class action lawsuit.
The plaintiff an A Tolisan, accusing the restaurant chain of
grossly misleading customers after she bought a steak and cheese
sandwich that the suit says contained two hundred percent less
meat than the heroes depicted in Subway ads.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Oh no, not enough meat in this in the hero sandwich.
Speaker 11 (27:00):
Suit arguing that Subway's actions are especially concerning now that inflation,
food and meat prices are very high, adding many consumers
are struggling financially.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
We Subway what?
Speaker 11 (27:12):
And the suit says other Subway customers have noticed shrinkage
in its sandwiches too.
Speaker 6 (27:17):
This one looks really, really skimpy compared to the picture.
Speaker 11 (27:20):
Similar lawsuits filed in the same court against McDonald's, Wendy's,
and Taco Bell were dismissed last year. NBC News has
reached out to Subway for comment. With more than twenty
thousand US locations, this isn't the first time Subway has
come under fire for not meeting customers' expectations like this.
Mystery meat lawsuit filed in twenty twenty one.
Speaker 6 (27:39):
To California residents sued the restaurant chain, claiming that an
independent test of ingredients revealed that the sandwiches are made
from quote anything but tunea.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
Yeah, how about that. I remember that.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
That's that's different. That's different.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
But this one tuna sandwich had no tuna.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Yeah, this one's going to get thrown out because that's great.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
But that was different. Yeah, that was just complete.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
You know, that was rawed, complete ripoff.
Speaker 9 (28:03):
Always a bad day, and we have to launch an
independent test to prove that your two night is in fact.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 11 (28:07):
A separate lawsuit argued Subway's famous footbong sandwiches were not
actually a foot long. Both of those cases were eventually dismissed.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Yeah, all right, So that's a subway. Now, let's talk
about McDonald's. When you go to McDonald's, Chancellor fifty to
fifty that their ice cream machine's not working. I don't
know what the hell's going on, but the ice cream
machine is never working at McDonald's. Well, maybe there's a
new solution here.
Speaker 16 (28:34):
Donald's mcflurry machine saga is finally over.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
I didn't realize her was there was. I know who
that is. It's Glenn Walker and he's I don't know
what he's doing where he's not going to say to McDonald's.
He's on some kind of crazy diet.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
I know it's I.
Speaker 9 (28:48):
Hadn't known too until I heard from a number of
our viewers who said, no, this is really a big thing,
And apparently it is enough so that there's even a
website mcbroken dot com.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Yes, I am been aware of this for the last
ten year, that these ice cream machines are constantly broken.
Speaker 9 (29:03):
That tracks broken mcflurry machines. People are very upset about it.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Now.
Speaker 9 (29:07):
There's a key reason the mcflury machines often seem to
be down when people visit, and that's because the franchisees
can't fix them on their own. There is a digital
lock on these machines. That means only the manufacturer, a
company called Taylor, has access to be able to repair them,
and at least so it seems, the company doesn't seem
to do that in very timely fashion. So many people
(29:29):
who go and looking for a mcfluury are often disappointed.
But I am here to tell you those days are
finally over.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
How snobby are those guys at KTLA where they both say,
from what we understand, we don't go there, but the
mcflurry machines aren't working.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
How there they over?
Speaker 9 (29:46):
A copyright exemption took effect today that now allows franchisees
to get around the digital lock repairs on the mcflury
machines on their own. This is an exemption that have
been sought by consumer advocates who had been responding to that.
They said it was the vast scope of complaints about
these machines and that something needed to be done, and
(30:07):
hence a court issued that narrow copyright exemption that does
allow people to at least do modest repairs.
Speaker 4 (30:13):
A good good You had to go to McCourt, Yeah,
that's what you had.
Speaker 14 (30:17):
And I always remember mcbroken dot com which gives you
a map wherever you are of any of the broken
ice cream machines at McDonald's right anywhere, it's great, and
they'll give you an alternative where there's a Wendy's nearby.
Speaker 1 (30:28):
My we use that all the time, you know, because
the one near me doesn't work. I got to go
to the other one near Costco. That's fantastic where I
know they have hotter fries. I know the fat better
fast food places and the worst fat because they're all
independently a lot of we're independently owned and management has
