1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,920
Speaker 1: It's KFI Am sixty and you're listening to The Conway

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.

3
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 2: At Mark Thompson sitting for Tim Conway Junior. I have

4
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 2: a YouTube show that I do. It's all news and

5
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 2: politics and stuff. It's kind of fun to splash around here,

6
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: you know, a little sometimes lighter tone here at KFI.

7
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 2: But if you want to check it out, it's called

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 2: The Mark Thompson Show on YouTube. You can subscribe and

9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 2: it's free. That's the best part of it. That's free

10
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 2: and you get what you pay for, by the way.

11
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 2: So it's on YouTube, also on the iHeartRadio app and

12
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 2: as an audio podcast on Spotify and stuff too. They

13
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 2: are making a closure and you may have seen this

14
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,280
Speaker 2: viral video. Did you see the viral video of the

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 2: the guy slamming into the ground this big slab of meat.

16
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: It hit my Instagram and apparently it's led to a

17
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 2: restaurant closure. Check this out.

18
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 3: It an eight restaurant. A restaurant in the Bay Area

19
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 3: remains closed this morning after a worker was seen throwing

20
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 3: frozen meat onto the ground. It happened last week in

21
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 3: the city of mill Pizza. Someone on a rooftop saw

22
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 3: the worker trying to break apart frozen ribs.

23
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 2: By the way, that's one of the cool aspects of it.

24
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 2: Somebody saw this from above, so the person who's doing

25
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 2: this can't tell that they're being videoed. It's being shot

26
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 2: from someone who's like in an apartment or in a

27
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 2: balcony above where this is going on. So it's completely

28
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: It's one of those things where you know, again, as

29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 2: we say, the worker can't take the pizza.

30
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 3: Someone on a rooftop saw the worker trying to break

31
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 3: apart frozen ribs in back of Full Love, a Vietnamese restaurant.

32
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: He slolammed them onto a piece of cardboard. They frequently

33
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 3: touched the cement.

34
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 2: He slammed them, slam them, Yeah, he did.

35
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 4: He salamed them.

36
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 3: He slammed them onto a piece of cardboard. They frequently

37
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 3: touched the cement and mop bucket. Employees told health inspectors

38
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 3: they were trying to thaw the meat outside due to

39
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 3: the lack of indoor space, and that it was not

40
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 3: served to customers. Inspectors, customers, that's.

41
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 2: Kind of I would say, exactly, how does that arithmetic work?

42
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: Isn't the meat for the customers?

43
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 3: Indoor space and that it was not served to customers,

44
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: inspector custom.

45
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 5: The staff.

46
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 3: Right, Well, here's the thing too. They found multiple other violations,

47
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 3: including a cockroach infestation. The restaurant closed until violations are corrected.

48
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, gosh, she just wondered how it gets to that

49
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 2: point to begin with, they were just making ground beef

50
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 2: they got. Well, you know, the reality is, I would imagine.

51
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I saw the video. He's smashing it against

52
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: cardboard that is on the ground. Now, so apparently it

53
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 2: touched a mop bucket and stuff. I didn't see that,

54
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: but apparently that's there. The cooking of the meat should,

55
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,880
Speaker 2: if it's cooked properly, kill all those bacteria, right, I mean,

56
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, I know it's gross, it's not as

57
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 2: gross as it could be. I mean, it's touching the

58
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 2: ground on this cardboard. Please don't misunderstand me. I'm not

59
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 2: justifying it or suggesting that it's a new kind of

60
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 2: preparation technique. But I'm just saying that it's likely that

61
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 2: a meat chunk, properly cooked will kill all of that bacteria.

62
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 2: But it sounds to me like that place has got

63
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:46,279
Speaker 2: bigger problems than just that. You know, I'm struck by

64
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 2: this story. The story about women and lung cancer bizarre

65
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 2: and surprising.

66
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 6: An active Chicago mother in her mid forties, Danielle Hooyg,

67
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 6: was stunned. Did you ever think that you were someone

68
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 6: who could get lung cancer?

69
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 2: No?

70
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: Never.

71
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 6: Early last year, this scan showing this white mass proved

72
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 6: her wrong.

73
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 7: They thought, well, no way do I have lung cancer

74
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 7: because I don't smoke.

75
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 6: Her doctor, delivering a second.

76
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 7: Blow, he said to me, it does look like cancer.

77
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,919
Speaker 7: And oh, by the way, you're not the first young

78
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 7: female I've seen today that has lung cancer.

79
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 6: Doctors we spoke with from around the country say they're

80
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 6: seeing more young women like Danielle with no history of

81
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 6: tobacco use diagnosed with lung cancer, and a new study

82
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 6: from Northwestern Medicine shows sixty five percent of people diagnosed

83
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 6: with lung cancer today don't qualify for regular screenings that

84
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 6: could have caught the disease sooner. That's because current screening

85
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 6: guidelines only cover adults fifty to eighty years old who've

86
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 6: smoked the equivalent of a pack of day for twenty years.

87
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 4: That is so screwed up.

88
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 2: So you're penalized for a cleaner lifestyle and a less

89
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 2: cancer prone lifestyle, you're penalized by the insurance.

90
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 5: Company disease Sooner.

91
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 6: That's because current screening guidelines only cover adults fifty to

92
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 6: eighty years old who've smoked.

93
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 4: And let me be clear about that.

94
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 2: When they say screening guidelines, I mean I guess those

95
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 2: do come from like the American Medical Association, et cetera.

96
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: That's kind of a consensus among the medical community that

97
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 2: that younger people who don't have a risk profile shouldn't

98
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 2: need the screening. But I also think there's an input

99
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 2: from the insurance company. That's why I mentioned it, because

100
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 2: I think the the underpinning everything with our healthcare system

101
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: is money. So it's sort of again, you don't get

102
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 2: scans that you don't need or that aren't prescribed to

103
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: the medical community because you know, you have to pay

104
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: for them, whereas if they are prescribed, oftentimes these scans

105
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 2: can be covered in some way by insurance anyway. But

106
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 2: I'm just saying that it's a shame that people who

107
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 2: are of the lower risk profile are essentially penalized because

108
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 2: of a lower risk profile.

109
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 6: That's because current screening guidelines only cover adults fifty to

110
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 6: eighty years old who've smoked the equivalent of a packa.

111
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,239
Speaker 5: Day for twenty years.

112
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 6: Among those diagnosed too late, Northwestern researchers say more younger

113
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 6: non smokers, the majority women.

114
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 4: They're like, what did I do wrong?

115
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 1: I've not smoked, I've never had alcohol, I eat healthy, exercise,

116
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: I have stage four lung cancer.

117
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 6: Chief of Thoracic Surgery doctor and Kit Barot. Do we

118
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 6: know why lung cancer rates are on the rise among

119
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 6: younger women who have never smoked.

120
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 4: Do we know why this is happening? Well, V actually don't.

121
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 6: Right now, Doctor Barrot says the culprit could be environmental

122
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 6: factors like air pollution or things more commonly inhaled by

123
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 6: women like cosmetics, aerosols, gas stoves, or cleaning products. But

124
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 6: none of that is proven. What is now, lung cancer

125
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 6: is the leading cause of cancer deaths nationwide.

126
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 2: You know, we always hear about carcinogens everywhere. You hear

127
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 2: about being inundated by this stuff. Essentially, we're bathing in

128
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 2: these carcinogens every day, and exposure to all those things

129
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 2: mentioned help up that annie. But wow, these statistics are

130
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 2: really brutal.

131
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 6: Doctor Barrod is now calling to change the screening guidelines

132
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 6: to include all adults forty to eighty five. Hoyg, whose

133
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 6: cancer was caught early by an unrelated scan and treated,

134
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 6: still wonders why her.

135
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 7: I could have died and my children would have been

136
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 7: without their mom. Really, anyone can get it.

137
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:45,080
Speaker 2: I mean it's scandalous though, that you know an illness

138
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: that you really need to catch early to have any

139
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 2: chance that the screening guidelines are what they are. They

140
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: don't allow you to screen earlier, So hopefully they do

141
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 2: change those guidelines.

142
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 4: When we come back.

143
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 2: It's a remarkable story of the latest fascination that has

144
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 2: grown not only in America but worldwide with a new pet.

145
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 2: We'll get to that next. Mark Thompson Here for Tim

146
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 2: Conway Junior.

147
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 8: You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI

148
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 8: AM six forty.

149
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 4: Mark Thompson here for Tim Conway Junior.

150
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 2: As we ramp up to the holidays, Conway is off

151
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 2: taking some holiday time. I was going to get the

152
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 2: car washed today and we had all the rain. Now

153
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 2: things have kind of cleared out the car wash. It

154
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 2: takes an hour now to get your car because there's

155
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 2: so few people working there now. It's crazy. These car

156
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 2: they had to close the car wash for several days

157
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 2: after the ice raids last month. Absolutely crazy, and I

158
00:08:55,520 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 2: was reading about it just today that there are so

159
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 2: many car wash places that are really stressed, and the

160
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 2: people working there are not coming to work they're so frightened.

161
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 2: And even those who are getting their car washed. These

162
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 2: are not even people who should be frightened. That it's

163
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 2: to say they're not immigrants, they are not Latino, They're

164
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 2: not you know, they can't be profiled. They're not going

165
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 2: into the car wash. They're just frightened by the raids.

166
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,320
Speaker 2: I mean, no one wants to go into a car

167
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: wash where, you know, ice agents come in and you're

168
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 2: just trying to get your car wash, and now it

169
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 2: turns into a crime scene. He's reading a piece in

170
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 2: the La Times. Are just saying from one of the owners,

171
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 2: who is one of those people who won the green

172
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 2: card lottery effectively and sunk all of his savings into

173
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 2: opening this car wash. He says, my target is to

174
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 2: pay the rent, pay the insurance, and pay the gods.

175
00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 2: It's an immigrant from Mexico, and apparently the concern is

176
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 2: that these guys are exposed to the street, so you

177
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 2: have straight vendors. I guess day laborers, you know, the

178
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 2: home depot guys, farm workers, gardeners. They've all become easy pickens,

179
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 2: and so you never really feel safe if you're any

180
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: of these people.

181
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 4: They said, the.

182
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 2: Last time the ice agents stormed that car Washington, I'm

183
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 2: talking about the one in my neighborhood, it was like

184
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:40,239
Speaker 2: a kidnapping, you said, felt like we were in Afghanistan

185
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 2: or Iraq, not in the middle of Los Angeles. And

186
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 2: you know, many of these people have been in the

187
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 2: country for decades. We know this story, but it's really

188
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 2: affecting life for these people, and life in and around

189
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 2: southern California and the economy on a broader level. But anyway,

190
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 2: I just I literally was there to trying to get

191
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 2: the car in. The thought just it's too long's I

192
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: don't have an hour to sink into this. And bosses

193
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 2: are saying, I thought, this is interesting that if immigration

194
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 2: agents come back, that the workers should consider locking themselves

195
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 2: inside the cars they were cleaning. The manager says, don't run,

196
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 2: they'll only chase you. So this idea somehow that I

197
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 2: mean again, getting in and out of the car wash

198
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,439
Speaker 2: may just be an all day affair. If it turns

199
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 2: into one of those situations. So you've got drama, you

200
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 2: have disappointment. You even have a lot of these owners

201
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 2: of car washes saying, hey, it's totally cool if you

202
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 2: want to go after criminals and stuff, but these people

203
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 2: aren't criminals. I pay taxes on their stuff. They pay

204
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 2: taxes on their stuff, and this is absolutely a legitimate situation.

205
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 2: These are hardworking people. So I don't know it, just

206
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 2: it's definitely changed life, and as we slide into the holidays,

207
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 2: just seems like one of those situations that you know

208
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 2: is at best unresolved. And it used to just be

209
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 2: criminals that they're arrested, and now they've had quotas that

210
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 2: have been increased so substantially that they have to make

211
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 2: additional arrests. The newest pet, this household pet more popular

212
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 2: in America and maybe worldwide, the growing fascination with raccoons.

213
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 2: New scientific research is suggesting that raccoons are literally becoming

214
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 2: physically cuter and that is maybe fueling their rise as

215
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 2: unconventional household pets. Trash pandas yes, and in fact, trash

216
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:03,479
Speaker 2: is part of this Trash may be the real kickstarter.

217
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 2: According to the author of one of the studies out

218
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 2: of the University of Arkansas. Trash creates easy food opportunities

219
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 2: that reward animals that are brave enough but not too

220
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 2: brave to live near people.

221
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 4: And so because we interact.

222
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 2: Around these creatures over generations, that balance of boldness and

223
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 2: caution softens their natural fight or flight response and it

224
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 2: reshapes their features. I know it seems wild, but this

225
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 2: is what scientists call domestication syndrome, which includes traits like

226
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 2: shorter snouts, smaller skulls, changes in coat color, more docile temperaments.

227
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,640
Speaker 2: So urban raccoons appear to be changing in the way

228
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 2: they look and the way they act. And so, yes,

229
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 2: the trash pend the backyard bandits increasingly comfortable around people

230
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 2: as they adapt to city life. And you know, they

231
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 2: even get internet fame as a result of you know,

232
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 2: some ring camera thing. So humans are choosing raccoons and

233
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 2: raccoons are choosing us. It's a holiday love story, and

234
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 2: raccoons are on the rise as a pet in more

235
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 2: and more households, and they all lived happily ever after

236
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 2: Thompson Here for Conway.

237
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 8: You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI

238
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 8: Am six forty.

239
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,480
Speaker 2: Mark Thompson's sitting in for Tim Conway Junior Andy Reesemeyer.

240
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 4: After this show, he's going to stop in and say hi.

241
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 2: There's a bizarre story of a Jet Blue pilot dying

242
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 2: after eating a hamburger. And they thought that this guy

243
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 2: was allergic to red meat and no one was aware

244
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 2: of it. But it turns out the story is even

245
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 2: more bizarre than.

246
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 4: That, And all right and check this out.

247
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: Jet Blue pilot died after eating a hamburger. The autopsy

248
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 1: called it a sudden, unexplained death. His face baffled his family.

249
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: He seemed to be in perfect health.

250
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 4: But now, a.

251
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: Full year after the pilot's mysterious death, a team of

252
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: doctors has found the explanation, and their conclusion is scary.

253
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: They believe that a tick bite made the forty seven

254
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: year old pilot allergic to red.

255
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 4: Meat and nobody knew it.

256
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 1: The speed of pilot Brian Waitzel's decline is astonished.

257
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 2: A tick bite that made him allergic to red meat,

258
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 2: so the two things were linked, but provoked was the

259
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: red meat reaction by the tick bite.

260
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: Made the forty seven year old pilot allergic to red

261
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: meat and nobody knew it. The speed of pilot Brian

262
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: Waitzel's decline is astonishing. He was at a barbecue at

263
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: his daughter's high school when he ate the burger at

264
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: three pm. By seven to twenty pm, he was vomiting

265
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: in his bathroom. By seven thirty seven pm, he was unconscious.

266
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 1: At ten twenty two pm, he was declared dead at

267
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: a local hospital, leaving behind his wife, Piper, and three children.

268
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 4: It's now believed.

269
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: Wakesl was bitten when he was jogging at a state

270
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 1: park near his home in Wall Township, New Jersey.

271
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 2: By the way, having been bitten by a tick, I

272
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 2: had lime disease. It was very serious. I'll spare you

273
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 2: with the story. But you don't always know you're bitten

274
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 2: by a tick. I mean, tick bites go down all

275
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 2: the time. Most of the time you don't even you're

276
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 2: not even aware of it. That's why they have you,

277
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 2: you know, check yourself. My dad took me to get

278
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 2: my haircut one time when I was a little kid,

279
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: and the woman who's cutting my hair spound a tick

280
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 2: in my head.

281
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 4: It was just the grossest thing in the world.

282
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they tell you, you know, after you've been out

283
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 2: for a walk or whatever to check yourself. This is

284
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 2: particularly in areas that have tick infestations. More common area

285
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: is yeah, yeah, what a area. But this condition that

286
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 2: they've talked about is a real thing. It's called alphagol

287
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 2: syndrome AGS, or a tick. Saliva sensitizes a person to

288
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 2: a sugar called alpha gol, and this causes the body's

289
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,160
Speaker 2: immune system to have this allergic reaction to mammalian meat

290
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 2: like beef, pork, or lamb, and usually two to six

291
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 2: hours after consumption, you begin this reaction and symptoms can

292
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 2: range from the hives and nausea to apparently this, which

293
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 2: is death. It's insane how quickly this forty seven year

294
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 2: old pilot succumbed to this.

295
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,679
Speaker 1: According to The New York Times, he returned from the

296
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 1: jog with a dozen small bites around his ankles. He

297
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: apparently had been bitten by the lone star tick, which

298
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: gave him the red meat allergy.

299
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 7: It is becoming a growing problem.

300
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 1: Doctor Aaron mc guinty is an expert on the condition.

301
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 7: The patient has no awareness that they could be allergic

302
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 7: until two hours later when they are experiencing symptoms, so

303
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,719
Speaker 7: they feel completely fine when they're eating it.

304
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: The pilot's widow says she is relieved she no longer

305
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: has to tell people we don't know why he died.

306
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 4: It brings a lot of closure.

307
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 2: Well maybe I mean it brings a lot of sadness.

308
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 2: The dude, you know, he bought the farm from a

309
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 2: tick bite that produced his death within hours. It sounds like,

310
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,439
Speaker 2: and this is really beautiful. Did you know about this

311
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 2: that these tick on me? Look, I know lime disease

312
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 2: because I had it. And of course lime disease can

313
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: lead to all kinds of horrors, and there have been

314
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 2: documentaries on it, and you can see them, and you

315
00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 2: you know, and I'm sure many of you know people

316
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 2: who have lundy. Maybe you had Landis yourself. That's been

317
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 2: my exposure to tick bites and some of the physical

318
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 2: tragedy that can be wrought by tickpipe. But this, you know,

319
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 2: he was declared dead seven hours after eating the hamburger,

320
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 2: and the hamburger reaction was brought on by this bite

321
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 2: that sensitized his body to it. Seven hours jogging at

322
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 2: a state park in New Jersey. Seven hours later, he's dead.

323
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 2: A Jet Blue pilot forty seven years old. Wow, that

324
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 2: is just wild. I got my tick bite at a wedding,

325
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: yet another reason not to go to a wedding.

326
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 4: Where was it?

327
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 2: It was in rural Maryland. Yeah, and I'll tell you

328
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,479
Speaker 2: there you go. When I came back to LA, I

329
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 2: started manifesting all of these symptoms of like the flu,

330
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,719
Speaker 2: like fever, persistent fever, really sore throat but I mean

331
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 2: super sore throat, had trouble swallowing my own saliva, and

332
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 2: aches and pains, body aches, and I did have a

333
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 2: rash all over my body. And when you go back

334
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 2: at once you know it's lime disease. You go back

335
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 2: and go, my god, these are all the classic signs

336
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 2: of lime disease. It's like wheel of fortune with all

337
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 2: of the letters turned. And the doctors were all going,

338
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 2: I just can't figure it out, because, to be fair,

339
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 2: it's less common out here. So I went back to

340
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 2: rural Maryland, contracted the tick bite and the lime disease there,

341
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 2: and the doctor asked at one point, actually changed doctors

342
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,959
Speaker 2: because the one doctor seemed to be so flumme. It

343
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 2: was insistent that it was the flu, and I just

344
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 2: knew it wasn't. I mean, I just knew it was

345
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,199
Speaker 2: something different. And so that's when I doctors, and the

346
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 2: second doctor said have you been camping? And I think

347
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 2: he was thinking lime disease. He said, have you been

348
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 2: camping or hiking? And the answer with me is always no,

349
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 2: i'n't been camping or hiking. But the real question is

350
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 2: have you been in any kind of rural environment or

351
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:21,679
Speaker 2: wooded environment. That's what you should really ask yourself. And

352
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 2: the answer to that was yes at this wedding, and

353
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 2: they just got it in time with me. I had

354
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:32,400
Speaker 2: it for thirty eight days. It gets very, very dangerous

355
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: after that. And yet if you can catch it early

356
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 2: lime disease anyway, you can knock it right out with

357
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 2: a simple antibiotic. But for all who are struggling with lime,

358
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 2: and who who've contracted lime, you know what I'm talking about.

359
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 2: But I was unaware that there's an even more dangerous

360
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 2: illness apparently provoked by a tick bite, a different kind

361
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 2: of tick crazy. And now this Jet Blue pilot is

362
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,880
Speaker 2: gone because of it. When we come back, we'll talk

363
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 2: to Andy, who I guess is coming in tonight. You know,

364
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 2: I love it, always love to hang with Andy for

365
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 2: a few minutes. We'll do that next. Mark Thompson from

Speaker 9: And I know you knew him forever, and and and

391
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 9: One of the things that I love to reflect on

392
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 9: is that Fox used to be across the street literally

393
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 9: from KTLA. That's right at Sunset Brons and now I

394
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,320
Speaker 9: think it's a high school right where.

395
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:23,880
Speaker 2: The Fox used to be. They told you what it is. Yeah,

396
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 2: it used to be Metromedia, then it was Fox. And

397
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: you're right right next to the Tribune lot next to

398
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 2: h and now Tribune it sold that.

399
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,760
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's next our now next we and we have

400
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,679
Speaker 9: the same We shared a lot with Netflix and they

401
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 9: don't want anything to do with us.

402
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 4: They don't.

403
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 5: They just don't care about it.

404
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 4: It's a it's a working lot. There's a lot going

405
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 4: on there.

406
00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 2: I did a show called Guinness Prime Time came on

407
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 2: and they set Guinness records on the show. So the

408
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 2: guy would come on and he like balanced drinking glasses

409
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 2: on his chin, like like two and a half stories

410
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 2: where the yeah, of course, okay. So it was that

411
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 2: kind of thing, really exotic. It was really a cool,

412
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 2: fun show to host. But I did it on the

413
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 2: k oh Okay. So I'd go from Fox eleven and

414
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 2: I just crossed the street over to k TLA right

415
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 2: and we'd shoot, you know, all day and end of

416
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 2: the night. But the fun part of it was that

417
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 2: the dressing room they gave me to kind of hang

418
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:18,239

425
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 9: going into work in the morning and then you'd see

426
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 9: all the crazy people who were in the audience for

427
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,400
Speaker 9: Let's Make a Deal. Sure, you know, shivering in their

428

Speaker 9: in their little spandex tight situation with the two two

429
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:43,959
Speaker 9: and stuff like that because they were you know, they

430
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 9: had to dress up like crazy.

431
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,320
Speaker 4: Get on the show. So that's right funny.

432
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 9: And then you'd have you know, a reporter coming in

433
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 9: after a triple homicide or whatever and driving past all

434
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 9: these people and just like, well, that's another day in la.

435
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 4: I mean, that is the yin and yang of all

436
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 4: of these lots. You know.

437
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 2: I remember when I would go over to the Sony lot,

438
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 2: like I've two days on Air Force one, that movie

439
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 2: with Harrison you were in that yeah, I've got a story.

440
00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that another time. Just awful what happened

441
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 2: with the airport? If you watch air Force one, uh huh,

442
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 2: I watch it every year. There's a scene in the

443
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 2: it's the Thanksgiving feel good movie. If you watch air

444
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 2: Force one, there is a scene in multiple scenes, I think,

445
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,199
Speaker 2: but at least one in the gaggle that is the

446
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 2: press room at the White House right now. The president

447
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 2: of course has been you know, taken on Air Force one,

448
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 2: and the vice president is there, Glenn Close, I think.

449
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 2: And so we're all there and we have speaking lines

450
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,120
Speaker 2: the people who are isoed in that, so we we

451
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,120
Speaker 2: shoot the the way it worked.

452
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 4: This story is already too long.

453
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 5: No my ripped. I am just on the edge of

454
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 5: my make.

455
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:52,359
Speaker 4: A long story longer.

456
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: Uh.

457
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,679
Speaker 2: And the one thing about air Force one is it

458
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 2: was shot by in the director's Wolfgang Peterson. He's a

459
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,680
Speaker 2: very famous German director who did dash Boot, et cetera.

460
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 2: So it's kind of like prestigious to be there, right,

461
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 2: So uh, there are three of us was speaking lines,

462
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 2: and again if you watch the movie, you're gonna be

463
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 2: able to see what I'm talking about. And we all

464
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 2: kind of just I think I had the line, which

465
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 2: was is James Marshall still president? That's the that's the

466
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 2: money line scene. And at lunch I meet the producer's

467
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 2: mom and she's this very nice lady, and I had

468
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 2: no sense when I'm about to tell you, I would

469
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 2: never do this today. But back then I kind of

470
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 2: felt like, I don't know, well care.

471
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 5: Were you already on TV doing weather?

472
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I was, we already you already, So I

473
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 2: auditioned for this, god yeah. So what happened was they

474
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 2: bring in and I'll get back to the mom in

475
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 2: a second. They bring into the room. It was just

476
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 2: the three of us. They line up the shot. Then

477
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 2: they bring into the room like one hundred people roughly,

478
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: maybe even more than one hundred extras. They're all the

479
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 2: rest of the press corps, and they have people who

480
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 2: are playing like photographers. They have cameras and all these

481
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 2: things are going off. And so when we actually rehearsed

482
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 2: the scene, you this lady who is the producer's mom,

483
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 2: You couldn't you couldn't hear her because she couldn't really

484
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 2: shout and over everybody's shit.

485
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 5: Oh yeah yeah.

486
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 2: So at lunch, I said, you know, say take this line,

487
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 2: and I'll take your line.

488
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 4: I thought we'd both be in the movie.

489
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 2: I didn't think, dude, you're you're like so she because

490
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 2: I can shout, I said, oh, everybody you, I think

491
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 2: it's a little harder anyway.

492
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 4: Blah blah blah. We talk.

493
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 2: It was not a big I said, so we take

494
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 2: that line, I'll take this line. It doesn't matter, and

495
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 2: they kind of. It didn't matter to them them either,

496
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 2: I could tell.

497
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 5: Which is a surprise.

498
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 9: It didn't matter to the director, especially a German director

499
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,679
Speaker 9: who you would assume would be Yeah, the guy who

500
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 9: did dos Boot is not just.

501
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,679
Speaker 5: Letting the day players, but which the script.

502
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 2: I mean, I was reporter number two, and it's not

503
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 2: like he was wedded to as soon as those lines

504
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 2: got in, So then something happened, and I think she

505
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,200
Speaker 2: gave the line to this.

506
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 4: Young girl who was younger girl.

507
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 2: A twenty three year old, twenty four year old in

508
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 2: the front row or second row. We're all kind of

509
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 2: toward the front, and that girl got the line. Huhuse,

510
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 2: I'm thinking when I saw the movie, I thought, wait

511
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 2: a minute, that's not.

512
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 9: That's not the lady. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I didn't remember

513
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 9: you being that young. Twenty something woman. No, who says

514
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 9: who says? Are still president?

515
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 2: And but what you will see, and this is how

516
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 2: I say, if you watch Air Force one, you'll be

517
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 2: able to notice what I'm talking about. You'll see a

518
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 2: cutaway of me. You'll see it close up of me.

519
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to have an you, you have a moment

520
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,600
Speaker 2: that is anticipated, suposed of a line.

521
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 4: But I gave it.

522
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 5: He gave it away.

523
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 4: Some thing like what I just described happened Mark Thompson.

524
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 9: That could have been your break. Yeah, that was your

525
00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:55,000
Speaker 9: pathway to oscars. And I mean, hey, listen, did the

526
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 9: check clear?

527
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 2: I know that right, it was two days. But what

528
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 2: got me onto this is the lot thing. Yeah, because

529
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 2: while that I was there for Air Force one, you

530
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 2: know what else was And they're everywhere.

531
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 4: They were walking everywhere at Starship.

532
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 2: Troopers, oh yeah, and so they're all dressed up like man,

533
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 2: it's like it was the coolest boy the.

534
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 5: Old days because they just there's nothing shooting anymore.

535
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

536
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 9: At Netflix, there's a lot of people having meetings, very important, Katla.

537
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 9: Obviously we're still doing our news thing, but those shows,

538
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 9: I mean, Netflix basically runs the whole lot, so all

539
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 9: the talk shows, all the daytime shows are gone.

540
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 4: Wow.

541
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 9: And it's a weird feeling because when I interned there

542
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 9: fifteen ish years ago, it was a working studio, sure,

543
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 9: and it was exciting, and I remember being like a

544
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 9: kid from Indiana thinking, oh, right for Hollywood, right, And

545
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,640
Speaker 9: you know, now it's just like, man, now everybody has

546
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 9: those meetings.

547
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 2: They have the meetings at Netflix and then they go

548
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 2: shooting at Lata or they shoot in Budapest.

549
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 4: Right or Vancouver.

550
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

551
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 4: It sucks.

552
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 2: And it's one of the things that the town is

553
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 2: dealing with right now because it has an effect of

554
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 2: ripple effect across the entire community.

555
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 9: I hear you, and uh, you know, at least we

556
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 9: have this little AM radio station to hang out, you know,

557
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 9: at the very least we've got this cool vintage analog

558
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 9: thing that we're doing.

559
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 2: So it's a it's it's a throwback, it's a it's

560
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 2: legacy media.

561
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 4: Are you here tomorrow as well?

562
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 5: I don't think so.

563
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 4: This is just a one off.

564
00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 9: So I do Mondays and Fridays at least for I've

565
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 9: been doing it for the past month and I'll probably

566
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 9: do it for at least the end of the year.

567
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 9: Mondays and Fridays, and then I do I do a

568
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 9: show on Sunday from two to four here.

569
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 2: Uh.

570
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 9: And it's fun. It's amazing, you know. And I know

571
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 9: that as a radio guy who's also done TV. It's

572
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 9: a really different muscle, yeah than the TV thing. It's fun.

573
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 9: I love it, but it's it was. The learning curve

574
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 9: is a lot steeper.

575
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 4: I think.

576
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 2: And you live or die by your own that's exactly right.

577
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 2: You did an interview. I know we're late, just to mention.

578
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 5: This, I will see my time. If you're going to

579
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 5: compliment on a year.

580
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wasn't because it was really good. Who was

581
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 4: it with. Did you talk to John Tesh? Maybe I did?

582
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 4: It was great, Thank you, It was great.

583
00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 5: I had him on, We had him on the show here.

584
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 4: And it was absolutely terrific.

585
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 5: Thank you so much.

586
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 9: He was wonderful, so gracious to give us so much time.

587
00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 9: I know Mark Ronner, who's there, was hugely excited that

588
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 9: Tesh called it John Tesh for God, said that's right.

589
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 2: But the other thing is I was impressed with how

590
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 2: really honest he was.

591
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

592
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 2: Really, I mean not that he revealed anything like it

593
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:19,719
Speaker 2: was so disparaging or awful.

594
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 4: But I'm just saying it.

595
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,719
Speaker 2: Just the conversation felt like, you know, he wasn't, you know,

596
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 2: playing like he was very unvarnished about totally.

597
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, And I think honestly his you know, he's an

598
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 9: old school guy. Yeah, but I think that there's something

599
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 9: about him. He's always the showman, I think is what

600
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 9: it is.

601
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 4: And he mentioned that you play music too. Yeah. Oh yeah,

602
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 4: oh that's great.

603
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was fun. We could connect on that.

604
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 4: A little bit.

605
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that was cool that he referenced. All right,

606
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 2: he's come out of town. Otherwise I would have even

607
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 2: more complimentary.

608
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 5: You can stay if you want. I'm sure you don't

609
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 5: want to.

610
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 4: I mean, don't know, Mark, I want to. I've got

611
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 4: a thing. I gotta go.
