Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the
Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Well, it's
Los Angeles, and we throw a lot at you when
you come to Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
It's you know, it used to be.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
You come to LA you get a hotel room, you
enjoy yourself, and you go home and you talk to
everybody how great LA is. You know, you go to
the beach, you go to a Randy's Donuts, you go
to downtown LA. Maybe you go to you know, Disneyland,
Universal and you see the sites. You go to Hollywood Boulevard,
(00:35):
and you used to be able to come out on vacation.
You know when I was when I was growing up
and we had family visit from Detroit, from or Cleveland,
either Dearborn Detroit or Sugar and Falls east side of Cleveland.
And whenever we had family come out, and it was
quite often, you know, my mom came. My mom was
from a family of eight kids and they all had kids.
(00:59):
So you know, there's one hundred relatives that I have
in the Detroit Windsor area, and they'd come out and
they'd visit. We'd always welcome them, and you know, and
they'd stay with us. And we always thought that was
a big deal, you know, when cousins or uncles or
aunts come out and we'd always take them to Hollywood
Boulevard and we'd drop them off for the day, or
we'd go with them and just spend the day walking
(01:20):
up and down Hollywood Boulevard.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Now, you would never do that.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
You would never drop somebody off on Hollywood Boulevard and
say I'll pick you up in six hours. It would
you would just be panicked all day that they were
getting stabbed or shot or abused or robbed or pick pocketed.
You would never do that now.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Never.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
And it's funny because I see when I drive down
Hyland and Hollywood, I see tourists all the time, all
the time, and I'm thinking myself, who dropped these people off?
How much do you hate your relatives? Do you drop
your relatives off and on Hollywood Boulevard. Well, it's not
just Hollywood Boulevard. There is man there's violence everywhere, there's
(02:09):
breakings everywhere. There's another one. And there's a guy ripped
off for a guy. I should say, I don't know
if it was a guy. Maybe I think it was
a guy it's usually a guy's game, and they broke in.
They stole a lot of purses and a lot of money,
and they dropped one of the purses on the way out.
And there's money everywhere in bel air. It was everywhere,
hundreds of bucks, one hundred dollars bills everywhere.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
It happened early this morning, and the money you see
on there, the influencer tells us whether or not it
was real. And at this hour police are still looking
for the suspects.
Speaker 4 (02:42):

a couple of guys.

While we were not home at the time of the crime,
the burglers ransacked my closet, damaging my home in the process.
But they dropped nearly everything, prioritizing the prop money. When
confronted by a neighbor security.
Speaker 2 (06:23):

Speaker 3 (06:34):
Outside her home, police found a bag and one hundred
dollars bill strewn on the street.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
Just beyond the gate of her mansion. In a statement,

I had two dollars off at twenty five dollars order
and I and she said, can you rip it, you know,
off the page. And I'm like ripping a coupon to
save two dollars, And I felt really low.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
And then I got home and I checked the receipt.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
No coupon, didn't even take No.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
No coupon, just the embarrassment of ripping it out of
the paper in front of everybody.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
And she didn't even credit my account. Outrageous.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
We recently did a fold.
Speaker 1 (07:49):

headphones on.
Speaker 2 (07:53):

The Fajida chicken taco at Sharky's is the bomb. The
Faida chicken taco good at Sharky's is outrageous.

We recently did a photo shoot for one of my
digital courses designed to help women improve the relationship with money,
in which my photographer suggested we use prompt money for
safety reasons.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Oh so it might be prop money that these guys.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Stole, as opposed to retrieving and returning money to and from.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
The bank as we've done in the past.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Off camera, neighbor told us she's worried that the home
was burglarized. The neighbor says they know the influencer and
the family that live in the house, adding they run
a group text Usually Francis's husband, she says, sends a
text when something happens.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
This time she didn't receive a text.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Oh no, but aren't you asking for a break in
when you're referred to as the money queen?
Speaker 4 (09:06):
And again police are looking for two guys.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I say left, and Miss France is telling us this
afternoon that among the items taken from our home with
some jewelry, nobody was hurt and nobody was home at
the time of the break in.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
Was there a slogan about that two guys are worth
more going out of your way four you get more
than your bargain for Remember that store, two guys?

AM six forty. Uh.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
You guys want to you want to learn something I
learned from Rich de Muro over the weekend. Okay, go

you all right, click on your photos app, okay, and
then go all the way down and says duplicates under utilities,
(10:21):

I don't you find it? Stuff duplicates? You go to photos.
I found found duplicates. How many duplicates you have?
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Ninety three?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Okay, so you can press that hit duplicates and then
you can merge them all. You can select all of them.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
And you can trust this. I'm not gonna lose anything.
Speaker 1 (10:53):

Speaker 2 (11:09):
Save you a lot of space.
Speaker 10 (11:11):
All right, I'm going to do it.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
There's my Conway on Tech Moment.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
We do it every Monday at five twenty one, twenty two,
twite three five twenty three.
Speaker 10 (11:21):
Great.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
All right. So we had the influencer break in.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
That was a bad deal, and and I you know,
we just every single night there's something else going on.
There's more break ins, there's more crooked people. They still
use that term crooked people. Our our our friend Evan
(11:45):
Love it isn't that his name? Yes, he got broken into.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
I know that's horrible.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
I saw that on KTLA. Yeah, he's the guy does
la in a minute. That's one of the best things
online and and he got broken into man, oh man,
I don't know what's going on in LA. I thought
we were past that with the fires and everybody sort
of straightened out.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
I guess not. I guess not.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Okay, the Big Bear Eagles, here's some good news. They're
going to have babies. The eaglets. There's at least one
egg that's cracking, is it one or two belly? Two
eggs are cracking, and two little eagles are trying to
find their way out. So you can watch it if
you go to any YouTube or whatever and go Big
(12:30):
Bear Eagles and you can see those eagles up there,
Shadow and what's the other one is Jackie? Jackie and Shadow.
Speaker 12 (12:38):
The official pipwatch is on two out of three eggs
by our beloved Big Bear Eagles, jack in Shadow. They
appear to be hatching. We saw the newest crack now
the first moon and the exciting news was announced by
the nonprofit Friends of the Big Bear Valley, which monitors
those eagles. We want to bring in Sandy Steers, the
executive director and biologist, Welcome back and thank you for
(13:00):
joining us in Sandy. For those who don't regularly follow
the big bear eagles.
Speaker 13 (13:04):
Tell us what.
Speaker 12 (13:05):
Pipping is how long it takes for these eggs to
fully hatch. Once the pipping begins.
Speaker 14 (13:10):
Pipping is when the first crack is seen in the
egg from the inside. That the little chick has an
egg tooth on the top of its beak and it pushes,
has to push hard against that shell to make a
crack in it, and then it has to work to
expand that crack around the shell enough that it can
(13:31):
get out.
Speaker 13 (13:31):
It can take from a day up.
Speaker 14 (13:34):
To three days sometimes for it to get completely out
of the show once it starts hatching.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Oh good, okay, maybe in three days, Well we'll be
done with the the pipping stage.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
That egill be out on his own.
Speaker 15 (13:44):
I don't realize it's such a process.
Speaker 12 (13:46):
Yeah, it's hard work.
Speaker 13 (13:47):
It's so cool, so it is.
Speaker 15 (13:49):
Can you put us through some of the key stages
of hatching, some of the signs of a healthy pit
versus maybe a potential problem. I mean one to three days,
it's doing a lot of work.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
I don't know how you tell whether these eagles are
going to be healthy or not, or they're going to
have ADHD or OCD or whatever they're going to have
when they pop out of them.
Speaker 14 (14:09):
It is doing a lot of work and sometimes it
has to rest for you know, twelve hours or more,
just to basically recover from pushing its the hole in
the next section of the shell.
Speaker 13 (14:20):
The first thing it.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
Did was like, I don't know, poo poosh.
Speaker 13 (14:25):
Should basically recover from pushing. It's the whole.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Is that an Italian way to say it?
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Bellione the boosh, Yes, that boush bous boush, pushing.
Speaker 13 (14:35):
Pushing, it's the hole in the next.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Section of this Yeah, right, it's the out the eagles
the form of a tush push, toush, push.
Speaker 14 (14:43):
Pushing, it's the hole in the next section of the shell.
The first thing was pushing it's the.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Hole in the next pushing its hole.
Speaker 13 (14:51):
The hole in the next section of the shell.
Speaker 14 (14:54):
The first thing it did was to before it could
even open the shell, was to break the inner lining,
the membrane. And so it did that before we saw
any holes in the shell. And then it breaks the
shell on the outside and then has to keep pushing its.
Speaker 13 (15:09):
Feet against the back.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
She did it again, poos.
Speaker 14 (15:12):
And then has to keep pushing its feet against the
back of the shell and kind of work.
Speaker 1 (15:16):
Maybe we've been pronouncing it our whole lives. Maybe she's right.
Pool and pooge.
Speaker 14 (15:21):
Working its way around with that egg tooth to break
enough of the shell off that it can crack it
open and push its way out.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Hush, did it again?
Speaker 13 (15:30):
Trips crack it open and push it swear out?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Boosh.
Speaker 12 (15:33):
So Jackiey and Shadow can't do it for them, right.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
That the you know these newscasters, I don't know is
this Katielini?
Speaker 5 (15:41):
You know it's CBS, CBS.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
But those reporters should have said, hey, lady, what's going
on with you with the pooche? You know, I mean,
we're excited about the eagles and everything, but something clearly
is happening with you. You're having a stroke. What's going
on with you?
Speaker 2 (15:55):
So Jackie and Shadow with the with the pooge, I
don't know.
Speaker 13 (15:59):
That it can crack it open and push its way up.
Speaker 12 (16:02):
So Jackie and Shadow can't do it for them, right,
the baby has to do it.
Speaker 10 (16:08):
Well.
Speaker 13 (16:08):
It's known that eagles will not help.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
They want the chick to be Oh, that's that's wild.
That the the the national bird is the eagle, and
their philosophy in life is we will not help God.
Speaker 14 (16:25):
What a nightmare, strong itself to be able to survive.
But at the same time, I've seen shadow break off
a piece of the shell before you, shadows.
Speaker 13 (16:38):
A sneaky, sneaky one.
Speaker 15 (16:40):
You know, We've been looking at these pictures all morning
where it does look like it could be a little
cold out there. It does wind or any of these
weather conditions play a.
Speaker 13 (16:46):
Role and how this will go down? No, they will.
Speaker 14 (16:49):
They will keep the eggs fully warm and covered as
you see them doing and it so that is not
a problem. It's actually warmer than a lot of time
when the eggs have hatched, So that should be fun.
Speaker 12 (17:03):
And I have one more question for you. So if
we have successful hatching here and we have these baby eagles,
how long do they stay with their mom and dad?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Great question? How long does an eagle stay with their
mom and their dad? We'll come back, we will tell you.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
I don't know, but we'll switch you gonna tell yeah,
we'll find Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
There's no rule of thumb. Somebody knows.
Speaker 11 (17:30):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demyl from kf
I am six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
All right, the eaglets are busting out of their shell,
their pippin and trying to pooge their way out of
the shell. And the question is how long do the
eagles stay in the nest once they're they've they've accomplished
their pippin.
Speaker 12 (17:55):
I don't know, how long do they stay with their
mom and dad?
Speaker 2 (17:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (17:58):
How long do they stay with mom and dad once
they're out of their shell? And we're talking about Shadow
and Jackie. Probably they don't go by those names, so
we gave him those names.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
They're up in.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
Big Bear and they've hatched these at least two of
the three eggs are showing signs of new eagles and
they're pipping. You know, I didn't know that term before,
but now I do. They're pipping man, I think dong
with those eagles.
Speaker 12 (18:26):
How long do they stay with their mom and dad?
Speaker 13 (18:28):
It's from ten to fourteen weeks?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Ten to fourteen weeks with mom and dad. Wow, it
seems like a lot fourteen weeks of feet in these
these kids. And what are they gonna name them? Are
we gonna have a names for the for the eaglets.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
That'll be a contest of sorts. I guess. I don't know.
I don't know.
Speaker 14 (18:48):
They stay in the nest and they get fed and everything,
but they grow from a few inches up to over
three feet tall in a short amount of time.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Wait, what three feet tall?
Speaker 1 (19:03):
I'm gonna stay on high alert that that might be
too high.
Speaker 16 (19:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Three feet you mean from from their from their feet
to the top of their head is three feet?
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Or the wingspan might be three feet are big?
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Maybe the wingspan, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
I can't imagine three feet. I mean that's up to
my waist. It's like a condor.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
That makes sense.
Speaker 16 (19:26):
Well, an eagles wingspan can be eight feet long, Okay,
seven ft long.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
I'll buy that. That's fine. But I have never seen
an eagle that's three feet tall. Never three feets a lot,
you know. I mean, if I let me stand up,
that's probably my waist. No way, eagles up to my waist.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Stand about thirty thirty inches high. Thirty inches high? Okay?
Speaker 1 (19:51):
So and then so in the last minute, we've knocked
six inches off. Maybe will knock another six, another six
and get them down to pigeons. You know, they've done
such a great job up in Alaska of protecting eagles
that people who've been to Alaska, and my wife's cousin
goes up to Alaska a lot. He's part of that
(20:12):
life's most difficult job. What is that thing? Dead lest catch,
dead least catch. And he said, there's eagles everywhere. They're
like pigeons up there. You go to McDonald's and said,
of those little McDonald's birds, those little gray birds that
eat at McDonald's, you only find at McDonald's. He says,
there's eagles everywhere. There's like thirty eagles every McDonald's. Just
(20:33):
these fat eagles sitting around, cholesterol problems, smoking, you know,
not eating right, and just bloated. These bloated eagles everywhere
everywhere in Alaska. You can't get rid of them.
Speaker 5 (20:47):
Were everywhere they get.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
What I mean, forty inches long tall.
Speaker 16 (20:56):
Do you know what the shorter eagles National Wildlife Federations
as they grow to about two and a half to
three feet in height.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Okay, now we're now we're two and a half. We
started thirty six three feet hay inches, that's what we said.
Speaker 10 (21:11):
It's it's the average guys five to nine. They could
be six five. So you know there's averages, right, and
there's taller.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Yeah, gid too much ice cream? Sorry, just trying to
prove facts. What'd you say?
Speaker 1 (21:26):
There's guys that are five nine, but he could be
six five.
Speaker 10 (21:30):
That's the average, and then there's guys that can be
six icy.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Icee, I say, okyeah, all right, oh then that does
make sense?
Speaker 2 (21:37):
Now it does? You did smoke a stepos. I'll give
you that. I'll give you that.
Speaker 14 (21:45):
They stay in the nest and they get fed and everything.
Speaker 13 (21:48):
But they grow from a few inches.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
And what if they can stay on the insurance up
to twenty six weeks?
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I don't know what. I don't know, maybe a.
Speaker 5 (21:55):
Few inches up to they stay in school?
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Yeah right, I don't know what they were when where
do they go? Oh and do a Shadow and Jackie
do they call it off? After they have had eglitz?
Now they can go, you know, be with some other ego.
Speaker 4 (22:07):
I don't know, a.
Speaker 14 (22:08):
Few inches up to over three feet tall wow, in
a short amount of time. And so that you'll see
lots of feeding and things like that from Jackie and Shadow.
But they have to be fully grown physically before they
can fly. So that's ten to fourteen weeks before they
can leave the nest, and then.
Speaker 15 (22:27):
Do they all stick together for a period of time
or do the babies go off?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
It depends on if they have the family improv group.
You know, sometimes families stay together and do improv.
Speaker 15 (22:39):
Yes, and then do they all stick together for a
period of time or do the babies go off?
Speaker 14 (22:44):
The chicks probably won't. They'll go different directions, but Jackie.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
And Show we don't use that term around here. Lady,
I don't know what area you're from.
Speaker 13 (22:52):
Babi's go off. The chicks probably chicks?
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Wow, in nineteen seventy eight, doctor here.
Speaker 5 (22:59):
The chicks probably say chicks. All I think of is chicks.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
Mad.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Yeah, that's right, that's as you're talking about chicks.
Speaker 13 (23:07):
The chicks probably won't.
Speaker 14 (23:08):
They'll go different directions, but Jackie in shadow will keep
track of all of them and make sure they're getting
food and teach them how to catch their own food
and things like that.
Speaker 13 (23:19):
So it's an education process for a couple months.
Speaker 12 (23:22):
Wow, it feels like teenagers. They leave the nest, but
we still follow them around to make sure they're okay.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Yeah, all right, Well you can see them online.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
I can go on to YouTube and just put in
big Bear Eagles and there's a live camera on them
twenty four hours a day. They get no privacy at all.
I mean, they don't show them pro creating.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
You know.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
They shut the cameras off for that much to my disappointment,
by the way, never seen that before. Like to take
a glance at that. But they don't do that. They
don't do it.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
All right.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
We got a restaurant, a beloved restaurant in Los Angeles
closing after one hundred years, one hundred years, come back
and give you the details.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Horrible, horrible.
Speaker 11 (24:08):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
The pantry in downtown Los Angeles has been there more
than one hundred years, is closing. That's Mayor Reardon's restaurant,
and it was You got a lot of food there
for your your buck, your breakfast, dinner, lunch, late night snacked.
I think they're open twenty four hours the pantry.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Did you ever go there a belly after a Laker game?
You're a big guy. You went to the.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
Lakers back when Beck when I was making all that
money with the Lakers, I would go to the pantry.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
I was in there once and a guy had his
dog right at his feet, and I said, oh, you
can bring dogs in here, and he goes, oh, that's
not a dog, it's a rat. Oh oh boom oh, man, man,
the size of a dog.
Speaker 9 (25:01):
Yesterday was the official day for this restaurant, this iconic
spond here in downtown LA, to officially close its doors. Now,
this is a general rational, excuse me, a generational restaurant,
not only for the people who spend decades coming here,
but also for the people who work here.
Speaker 15 (25:16):
Now.
Speaker 9 (25:16):
We spoke to their union representative and she says, that's
really what it's all about. It's these people who have
spent so many years giving so much of their lives
to this place, and they really want to see it
either reopen as the Pantry or as something else. Then
they want to continue to be a part of it.
Speaker 13 (25:33):
Now.
Speaker 9 (25:33):
The original Pantry Cafe opened its doors in nineteen twenty four,
serving up pot coffee and burgers and breakfast.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Nineteen twenty four. Man, that's a nice run. That's a
nice run. Anybody opening up a restaurant would take that
in a heartbeat. One hundred one years.
Speaker 9 (25:48):
If you have come down ninth and South for Guaroa
Streets here you probably saw the long lines outside a
twenty four hour response drawing in late night crowns and
also early birds. Unfortunately, the restaurant had to significantly come
back on hours during the COVID nineteen pandemic and couldn't
quite recover after that.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
You know, they had a lot of you got big
portions there too at the pantry, like you could order
one breakfast and feed nine people.
Speaker 9 (26:13):
At one point, Martin Luther King Junior, Marilyn Monroe even
dined here. Former Mayor Richard Rearden took over the restaurant
in nineteen eighty one, and after his passing, the restaurant
was placed in a trust, and there's been some issues
with employees over the years. In the final days, according
to a piece of written by The La Times, the
remaining twenty five workers gathered inside received Milinna envelopes with
(26:35):
their final checks inside, and with the support of their union,
did not want to leave, many employees saying they have
worked here for decades and they want to continue to
be a part of it, despite the decision by the
trust to close.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Okay, here's what I heard about the pantry from somebody
who's in the restaurant game. That they're selling the restaurant,
and the union that represents the waiters, the bus boys,
the the staff, the chefs, they wanted the union contracts
in the negotiation so they could all keep their jobs.
(27:09):
And the people selling the restaurant said no, we want
to give it, you know, to sell it to whoever is
going to buy it, and they hire their own people.
And so the pantry employees said, no, that's not fair.
Some of us have been here for thirty forty years.
We want to be part of this deal and get
transferred into the new restaurant. And that's where the sticking
(27:30):
point was.
Speaker 9 (27:31):
Now Unite Here Local eleven, which represents restaurant workers, trying
to renegotiate a contract, demanding the trust agree to keep
workers on.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
That's what it is.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
That was the sticking point where they didn't want to
offer the contracts and that would muddy up the deal
in selling a restaurant when you have existing contracts for
employees that are making, you know, quite a bit more
money than other restaurants, and they would have to hire
the same people back. They didn't want that, and so
(28:02):
they shut it down before they.
Speaker 9 (28:04):
Sold it, demanding the trust agreed to keep workers on
and also to keep their union representation intact. But that's
not what ended up happening here. The trust has been
trying to sell the restaurant for months but ended up
deciding to close on March second.
Speaker 1 (28:19):
And when they closed yesterday, March second, there were a
lot of employees that were very emotional and they stayed
in the restaurant. They didn't want to leave, they didn't
want to go, and the cops had to come in
and escort them out.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
It's sad, it's horrible.
Speaker 15 (28:33):
We're just coming back out here and honestly just paying
our last respects to the original pantry.
Speaker 11 (28:39):
It's been a staple in the community for one hundred years,
that all.
Speaker 10 (28:42):
The memory that have a been here late at night,
early in the morning, when my parents, with my friends,
with my kids.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Now and this is a statement sent to us by Patricia,
the daughter of former Mayor Rearden, essentially saying, as was
as with most Angelino's, our family saw the pantry as
our home away from home. Our hearts go out to
all those involved in the pantry as it moves into
its next chapter.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Yeah, we'll find out what that's going to be. I
don't know, maybe a Pizza Hut or something something fancy.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
I don't know. I like Pizza Hut, Little Caesars, right,
little Caesar's.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
New Maruno maybe Aporo is?
Speaker 2 (29:24):
I think no Maroona is still around?
Speaker 11 (29:26):
You know.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
I took my wife and daughter to New York City.
They'd never seen, well, my wife had been there, but
my daughter had never seen New York City. This is
right before the pandemic. And we got there and we
were hungry, We didn't we wanted. So we walk out
of the hotel and right across the street Numero Uno.
First night, New York City. And I treated my family
to Numero Uno. And if they were honest with everybody,
(29:53):
they would change that name of that restaurant to Numero Dos.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Whatever. All right.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Dolly Parton was married for sixty years to her husband,
Carl Dean, and he passed away very very sad.
Speaker 13 (30:12):
And this justin.
Speaker 17 (30:13):
Carl Dean, Dolly Parton's husband of nearly sixty years, has died.
The two met outside a laundromat the day Dolly moved
to Nashville when she was just eighteen years old.
Speaker 10 (30:21):
They married two years.
Speaker 17 (30:22):
Later, back in nineteen sixty six, and they kept their
relationship private for decades. Dolly released a statement today thanking
fans for their prayers. Carl will be laid to rest
in a private ceremony. He was eighty two years old.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Well, it's very sad for her, and everybody loves Dolly
Parton everybody, and she lost her beautiful husband.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
So very very sad.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
There was an earthquake last night at ten thirteen and
it was centered right under my house in Burwing. It
sounded and felt like a freight train was coming through. Literally,
it's about a quarter mile from where we live, or
maybe a half mile from right under our house, nine
miles under our house.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Did you feel it yesterday? I did not? Did your? Did? Jen?
She didn't.
Speaker 16 (31:08):
She got the notification on her phone though, Oh is
that right? And then I saw the texts go back
and forth between our little group and I was like, man,
I didn't feel nothing.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
I got the notification about a minute after it happened.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Did it was coming a minute after you?
Speaker 16 (31:24):
Good timing?
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Well, I was too close to the epicenter.
Speaker 1 (31:27):
I was right on top of it happened right under
my feet, Right under my feet. It was huge, huge quake.
We are having an earth It was a three point
nine that it felt bigger.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Give me a break.
Speaker 7 (31:38):
We are having an earthquake right now. If you're in
Los Angeles, maybe you can feel it. That's what is
happening in La in Hollywood on Oscar night. We didn't
feel it too much here at the Governor's Ball, but
that is going to.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
Be a story.
Speaker 7 (31:54):
Is We don't know yet how how long it is,
how high it.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Is, whatever, Just two different ways to measure an earthquake.
I guess how long it is, how long it is,
or the very popular earthquake measurement it is How high
is it?
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Yeah, that's what they say. It can get up to
three feet thirty inches.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
Yeah, it sticks around for ten to fourteen weeks.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Whatever.
Speaker 4 (32:20):
Oh it looks like in.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
Look, he was just you know, he's on fumes. What's
his name in the George Pinocchio. Yeah, he's probably been
up since four am. He does sound a little tired. Yeah,
And he's talked to all these celebrities about, you know,
what they're wearing and their hopes, their aspirations, how to go,
how to you know?
Speaker 14 (32:43):
Who are you?
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Who are you with? You know? And and finally he
just said, screw it.
Speaker 7 (32:49):
Oh it looks like in Glendale. Our control room is rattling.
We can see the Oscar sign above us going a
little bit up and down and up and down.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
So definitely there.
Speaker 7 (33:00):
There has just been an earthquake here in Los Angeles.
We'll get specifics, and if we can, before we go
off the air, we will tell you about it. In
the meantime, we will keep this show on the road.
And I've been standing for the bulk of twelve hours.
I think I'll need some knee braces.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Yeah, he's been working way too long. He's probably been
up for twenty hours.
Speaker 7 (33:20):
They are the latest fashion accessory, aren't they, Michelle Fisher?
Aren't they? Reshamba?
Speaker 8 (33:25):
All right, George, Well what you felt there in Hollywood
is certainly what we felt here in this studio. It
kind of caught us by surprise. As we were listening
to you wrap up that earthquake that was felt right here.
The lights in this studio rattling back and forth. We
grabbed hand and we were our hearts are still beating
(33:45):
pretty fast. You know, so many people out tonight celebrating
the oscars. The last thing that's on their mind is
probably an earthquake.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
There you go. Yeah, it was pretty big.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
It was in Burbank, North Hollywood area, and they say
they say Magnolia and Hollywood Way or the two is
the main intersection where it was centered.
Speaker 2 (34:06):
You were awake, right, I was wake.
Speaker 11 (34:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
I was watching the Oscars and you know, I was
watching them in delay and bang and I thought it
was a sonic boom from an airplane and it was.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Not oh that initial smack, Yeah it was.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
It was pretty big bye bye bang, and and not
a lot of damage. I noticed that when I went
out to my car today that my sunglasses where I
usually keep on the visor were on the seat. So
maybe those fell down, or maybe I just left him
on the seat. That's possible too. So that's the extent
(34:40):
of the damage in Burbank. But all the fire engines,
all the fire trucks came out of the fire houses,
the ambulances, you know, in case the firehouse imploded and
fell apart, they could still go rescue people. So Big
