1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: It's KFI AM six forty and you're listening to the 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. Storms are 3 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:16,759 Speaker 1: coming in, big ass storms are flying in, and they're 4 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: getting here soon. They're gonna get here tomorrow. Late tomorrow 5 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,080 Speaker 1: will be the big one. I'm looking outside right now. 6 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,639 Speaker 1: I don't it's really cloudy in the San Fernando Valley, 7 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 1: Bellio for some reason. I'm not sure if she's on 8 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 1: edibles or if she's drinking her wine, her box wine. 9 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,800 Speaker 1: But she said, we can see the northern lights if 10 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 1: you look outside. And I said, I those lights are 11 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: coming from by Wiener Schnitzel. 12 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:47,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, those are Wiener Schnitzel's lights. Those aren't the Northern lights. 13 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 14 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 4: I hadn't heard anything about them being down this far. Yeah, 15 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 4: I haven't either, And she said, no, you look at 16 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 4: the clouds. They're right behind the clouds. 17 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 2: Like they're right behind the clouds. I don't know. 18 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 4: Can't you see through the clowns? 19 00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 2: Are you talking about me? 20 00:00:59,400 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 5: No? 21 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: Little bit, a little bit. 22 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: But the northern lights in Oregon, Washington, Colorado, there's spectacular. 23 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: Twenty two states, is that right? Yeah, that's amazing. Have 24 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 2: you ever seen them? In when you used to live in. 25 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: The never never ever seen them. Something's going on with 26 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: the planet, and I don't know what it is. You know, 27 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: I'm not an expert on the planet, but I think, 28 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: and you know, you can probably look this up. I 29 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: think we're going into another ice age. I think we're 30 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 1: going to get dramatically cooler or colder. 31 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 4: We're gonna double dip and have two at the same time, 32 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,639 Speaker 4: or will we not one, we're going immediately into another. 33 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: Well okay, currently, you know, you know, because you are 34 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: you're smart, Krozier, we're currently in an ice age. Yeah, okay, 35 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna I don't think we'll ever make 36 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: it out of that ice age. I think we're going 37 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: to go back into it in a big, heavy way. 38 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: And so I think that, you know, I think we 39 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: need more gas powered cars to prevent that, and more 40 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: airplanes and more people, you know, throwing trash in the 41 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: streets and burning fires in the backyard. We need to 42 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: save this planet with heat because we're going into an 43 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 1: ice age. So you got to everybody's got to do 44 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: their job. Oh, the emails are started already. Wow, it's quick. 45 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,679 Speaker 1: But there's an article out there let me pull it 46 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,799 Speaker 1: up here and it says here it is. It's right 47 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: here on my Internet, so it's got to be true. 48 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: Climate scientists controversial claim that the Gulf Stream could be 49 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: near collapse, predicting a new ice age. Angel Martinez, I 50 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: know you went to school and you're not a big 51 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: global warmer. 52 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: Kid, but listen to this, Angel, Okay. 53 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: A key Atlantic current could be pushed to the brink 54 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 1: of collapse within decades, supposedly ushering a new ice age 55 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: in dramatically raising sea levels, according to climate scientists. And 56 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: then I read another report coming from another scientist that 57 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: said if we do go into this radical ice age, 58 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: that the ocean levels are going to drop because the 59 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: last ice agee we're in, the ocean levels were four 60 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: hundred feet lower than what they are right now. In 61 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: the last ice age, you could have walked from Long 62 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: Beach to Catalina with no problem. There were four hundred 63 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 1: feet lower than what they are right now. And so 64 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: we're heading towards an ice age. And I blame people 65 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: like Angel Martinez and Mark Thompson who got into these 66 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: electric or hybrid cars, because you guys went the batteries. 67 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: You weren't producing enough heat on your car and you're 68 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: throwing us into an ice age. 69 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 6: Oh come on, you got to settle down on that, 70 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 6: because I do have I emit. 71 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 2: I know, I know. 72 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: You try to burn, you know, you burn your trash 73 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: in your backyard and you know, get out there and 74 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: just turn your oven on when you're not baking. 75 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 2: But you're not doing enough, not doing enough. 76 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: But this current, this current that may evaporate, which includes 77 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: the Gulf Stream that runs from the Gulf of Mexico 78 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 1: or as Bellyoa calls it, the Gulf America and the 79 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: US East Coast across the Atlantic to Europe, helps maintain 80 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: the mild climate in Europe, UK and the East Coast 81 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: of the United States. Well, this study stated that the 82 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: source of this marine temperature regulator, it's called the Greenland 83 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: ice Sheet, is being thwarted amid warming temperatures, causing meltdown runoff, 84 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: and that is going to cause global cooling. We're going 85 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: into another ice age, whether you like it or not. Now, 86 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: the good news for everybody listening right now, it will 87 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: happen hundreds of years after you are all dead. It's 88 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: not happening for another of five hundred to fifteen hundred years. 89 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: But our great great great great great great great great 90 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 1: great great great great great grandchildren will be affected between 91 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: five hundred and fifteen hundred years. We won't be around, 92 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: but it's going to effect our generation of great great 93 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: great great great great great great great great great great 94 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: great great. 95 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 2: Great great great grandchildren, big dog. 96 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 1: All right, before we get back into this debate, Angel Martinez, 97 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: people want to know. I got a text here. Real 98 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: Christmas tree or fake? We went with Kroziers goes with 99 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: the real one.

My mom actually ordered it. 108 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 6: Been in a box in the garage. 109 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 2: Oh bubble? 110 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 7: All right?

I don't know what's going on with you? 113 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: What about Bellio? Are you at this BELLYO Sharon Bellio. Yeah, sir, 114 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 1: are you at the weather desk? 115 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 7: No, I'm at the gift bag desk, still tracking that. 116 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 2: I have some calls real Christmas tree or fake. 117 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 7: I know this seems like a cop out. I do 118 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 7: both because I get the big one is real, because 119 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 7: it smells so beautiful and it's fun to go get it. 120 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 7: But then I have some fake pencil trees that I 121 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 7: put up, and then a small one in the bedroom. 122 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: Okay, but you're but the principal tree, the big one 123 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: is real. 124 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 2: It's good for you. Okay, But wasn't that a. 125 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: Maybe I should just ask it the question, not you know, 126 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: direct the witness here. But was that a tradition in 127 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: your house to take the whole family go out to 128 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: three or four lots when. 129 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, when I was smaller, Yes, I was 130 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 7: a big deal and I loved that. And you get 131 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 7: hot chocolate, make it a whole thing. 132 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 2: We had a when I was growing up. 133 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 1: We lived on Magnolia and Balboa, which is north of 134 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: Ventura Boulevard. When you have six kids, you can't live south. 135 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: First of all, the prices were a little high, and 136 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: if you live in the hills, with six kids, you're 137 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: just in the car all day long. So we grew 138 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: up in the Valley Flats. I'm a valley bumpkin from 139 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: the Valley Flats. And my dad went out and bought 140 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: a huge Christmas tree. We had a four yer in 141 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: our house. It was probably, i don't know, seventeen feet tall, 142 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: and he bought one of those comedy trees. It was 143 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: twenty feet tall, and brought it home. It was delivered, 144 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: we put it up and it didn't fit in the house. 145 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: So he asked the neighbor who knew whose brother was 146 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: a tree surgeon, said, hey, can you cut this tree 147 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: down by five feet so we can bring it in 148 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: the house. He goes, yeah, sure, no problem. So we 149 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: went off to midnight mass. We came back and he 150 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: did cut five feet off that tree, off the top. 151 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: Five feet off the top of that tree. My dad 152 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: just assumed they didn't have to tell that guy. The 153 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: police cut it off the bottom. So we literally had 154 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: almost a square tree one year, and my dad had 155 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,239 Speaker 1: a great solution. He took the top the five feet 156 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: that he cut off and put it on the roof, 157 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: so it looked like that tree went from the first 158 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: floor to the second floor all the way through the roof. 159 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: It was beautiful by a wild Christmas. That's the Christmas 160 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: where by Uncle Tommy during our Christmas party fell into 161 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 1: the tree and nobody helped him out and he spent 162 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: three hours sleeping drunk in the Christmas tree around the gifts. 163 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: That is a true story, all right.

In an admission that the state 336 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: had acted improperly, even though the state had previously defended 337 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 1: its licensing standards. So you may remember that the government, 338 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: the Trump administration had either held or clawed back forty 339 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: million dollars in federal funding because he said the California 340 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: isn't enforcing English language requesd VIRONMENT for truck drivers. Also, 341 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: Trump administration also promised to take away another one hundred 342 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:10,360 Speaker 1: and sixty million dollars from the state over these improperly 343 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: issued licenses. So if you're a truck driver and you 344 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,719 Speaker 1: are here legally you speak English, this could be a 345 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: huge payday this week, this month, and early next year. 346 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: There's going to be seventeen thousand less truck drivers and 347 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: bus drivers that have licenses in the state of California. 348 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: So if you're all set, you got your license, you 349 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: got your insurance, you did it, you know the legal way, 350 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: you could be in the catbird seat and make your 351 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,199 Speaker 1: sell some money because there is going to be a 352 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: truck driver and a bus driver shortage. You can't take 353 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: seventeen thousand of these trucks, you know, and take their 354 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: licenses away without a tremendous shortage.
