1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,200
Speaker 1: It's KMF I Am six forty and you're listening to

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,319
Speaker 2: If you're traveling eastbound right now and you look up

4
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 2: into your left a little bit to your left, like

5
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 2: east northeast, you can see a full moon.

6
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:23,479
Speaker 3: And it's a full moon.

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 2: It's called the cold moon Thursday, December four, twenty twenty five,

8
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 2: peaking around three fourteen pm local time. It's also a

9
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: super moon, making for great viewing opportunity right now.

10
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:38,959
Speaker 3: If you're on the.

11
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 2: Ten east, the one, the two ten east sixty ninety one,

12
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 2: you're heading east, I think you get that, or north

13
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: you can probably see it as well.

14
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 3: But that is a full moon and a cold moon.

15
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 2: I know why they called a cold moon, but they

16
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: do so just to deal with that.

17
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 3: But it's really cool to see. Look.

18
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm looking at it right now, and you're

19
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: probably looking at it right now. I always found that

20
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 2: odd that. You know, my grandparents who lived in Ohio,

21
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 2: you know, when I was younger, I was on the

22
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 2: phone with them. You know, my grandmother would say, hey,

23
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: can you see the moon. I said, yeah, I'm looking

24
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 2: at it right now, and she says I'm also looking

25
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: at it. She was in Cleveland, Ohio, and she's looking

26
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,199
Speaker 2: at the moon. I'm looking the moon. We're both staring

27
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 2: at the same thing, even though we're three thousand miles apart.

28
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 3: Oh, it's kind of movie. Yeah, kind of a cool dude.

29
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 3: I enjoyed that. I loved it. All right.

30
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: We have to thank everybody who showed up at the pastathon,

31
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: everyone that donated. We had an unbelievable year. I thought

32
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 2: we'd come in around three hundred thousand. Bruno thought four

33
00:01:55,080 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: hundred thousand. Nobody nobody guessed over a million dollar one million,

34
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 2: one hundred thousand dollars.

35
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 3: That's without the Wendy's numbers.

36
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 2: That could be another one hundred and fifty thousand, and

37
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: also smart and final, they're still collecting and so that

38
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: might be another huge chunk of money. All going to

39
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: help Bruno feed these kids who have no food, and

40
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 2: it goes.

41
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: It's a great, great deal, all right.

42
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 2: Yesterday we did a little we did some about some

43
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: stories about kids killing their parents, and I'm hoping it's

44
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: not a trend. If you have sons, you better really

45
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: hope this is not a trend. But it's happened twice

46
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: in southern California, once in I think Tarzan or Van

47
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 2: Ey's just yesterday, and then in Siami Valley over the

48
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 2: last week. And now it's happened in Long Island, and

49
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 2: it's also happened in Illinois. So I don't know if

50
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: this is a trend. I don't know if there's a

51
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: game out there where part of the game is wiping

52
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 2: out your parents. But this is alarming, and everybody who

53
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 2: has kids is praying this does not become a trend.

54
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 4: It's Hicksville Road here in Bethpage and just a very

55
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 4: tragic situation on our hands. You can see ambulances and

56
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 4: police still here at the scene. Police are telling us

57
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 4: this is a homicide investigation. Eyewitnesses are telling us an

58
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 4: elderly couple was stabbed here, two people stabbed, and at

59
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 4: least one of them is now dead.

60
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 3: Unbelievable.

61
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: All right, I'm sorry I couldn't hear him from on

62
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 2: my point, but we finally got it hooked up here,

63
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen. One of my favorite reporters who is

64
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 2: responsible for keeping this city clean and safe and then

65
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: he retired and it went to hell, is David Goldstein.

66
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 3: He's with us from Ky Callen CBS. David Goldstein, Hi you, Bob.

67
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 5: Hey Jimmy, how you doing?

68
00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 3: Ah Man?

69
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: The city of Los Angelus has gone in the s

70
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 2: in the in the crappers since you left.

71
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 5: You know, I get frustrated when I see all that

72
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 5: stuff out there. I bet you do take a step

73
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 5: and say, hey.

74
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 2: I could do not I don't really want it, but

75
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 2: it really has. I mean, Michael Monks here, a KFI

76
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: is trying to keep him on his downtown, but they

77
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: don't seem to care or listen. But it was you

78
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 2: that always drove around and if you know, if cal

79
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 2: Trans was drinking on the job or not working, you always,

80
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 2: you know, held them responsible.

81
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 3: And nobody does that anymore.

82
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know. I mean that's that's the importance of

83
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,479
Speaker 5: investigative reporting, which unfortunately we're seeing less and less of

84
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 5: around the country because it costs a lot of money

85
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 5: to have investigated reporters do work like we were doing. Well,

86
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 5: Unfortunately that's not happening as much. But you know, I

87
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 5: still watch it, I still see it. I'm still here.

88
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 2: What are you doing with retirement? I mean, you're just

89
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 2: sitting around. I'm not staring at door at the all time.

90
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 5: Uh No, she's never here. You know, we're doing a

91
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 5: lot of traveling. Uh. I'm playing ten and my tennis

92
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 5: game has gotten really good. Uh playing tennis three four

93
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 5: days a week. You know, we're watching a beautiful sunset

94
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 5: right now.

95
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 3: Did you do you miss it? You missed the work

96
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 3: at all?

97
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 5: You know, I do. I miss the people. I missed

98
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 5: the office. I miss going into one office. I don't

99
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 5: miss the pressure of it. And I I didn't realize

100
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 5: the tremendous pressure you're under until I left, until I

101
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 5: had to decompress. It's about six months to decompress, really,

102
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,239
Speaker 5: and and but you know it's I don't look back.

103
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 5: It was a great time in my life. I moved

104
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 5: on to another chapter. Now I'm toying with maybe doing

105
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 5: a couple of things here and there. But you know,

106
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 5: we're doing a lot of traveling.

107
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 2: I drove by some city work. I don't know what

108
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: their job was, but I saw them all just sitting,

109
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 2: you know, leaning on their shovel, and I rolled the

110
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,919
Speaker 2: window down. I yelled out, you wouldn't be doing that

111
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 2: if gold Steam was still.

112
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 5: Here, you know, I still I mean every time I

113
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 5: drive by some construction side caltrans or DWP and there's

114
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 5: like ten people there where you can see how many

115
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 5: people you need to stand around to tell the one

116
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 5: guy to dig and put the plow right here, and

117
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 5: the other guys are just standing around. It's like, come on,

118
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 5: and you know, I know how much you know those

119

Speaker 5: We went to Vietnam and Southeast Asia a few months ago,

124
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 5: which was really interesting. You went to Thailand, Cambodia, it

125
00:06:55,400 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 5: was fun. We had a blast. We've been to most

126
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 5: in Italy and uh and all around that area there.

127
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 3: Get around.

128
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,520

00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 5: Well, I mean Dorothy's teaching, so that's like a quarter

132
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 5: of a check.

133
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 3: Okay.

134
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 2: You know, Mark Thompson went to Vietnam and I heard

135
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 2: him about a year after he got back.

136
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 3: He was telling a guy his story.

137
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 2: He goes, yeah, I was in Vietnam, And I'm like, buddy,

138
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,000

Speaker 2: you traveled to Vietnam, there's.

140
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:41,800

141
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 5: the army bases are still there. Oh wow, when you're

142
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 5: in Saigon and uh, you know, they're they're just deserted now.

143
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 5: And it's it's it's really really interesting to figure out that,

144
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 5: you know, it wasn't too long ago we were all

145
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 5: shooting at each other.

Speaker 5: I love talking to the people there and what you

151
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 5: think about you know, Americans and coming here and tourism

152
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 5: and all that, and it's fascinating. It's fascinating to visit

153
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 5: these parts of the world things that we couldn't do

154
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 5: when we were working, you know, to just go on

155
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 5: extended vacations, which has been great.

156
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 3: Right, it's been great.

157
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 2: But Goldstein, I've been likewise right back with you. But

158
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 2: I don't get a sense that you want to get

159
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: back to busting the balls of people who work for

160
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 2: the city or the county. But look, I got to

161
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 2: tell you one more time. They need that now more

162
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 2: than ever we need it.

163
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 5: They do, they do, they do, and there's so much

164
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 5: wasted money around, and you know, you see public officials,

165
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 5: you know, from the mayor on down, talking about counting

166
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 5: all these great things that have been done, and you

167
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 5: look at it and it's really not happening. It's all

168
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 5: a pr game that they're putting out there, and there

169
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 5: are very few you challenge them to say, hey, wait,

170
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 5: sick uh you know this is not happening, or yeah,

171
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 5: you're moving these homeless out, But what did that cost?

172
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 5: You know, you might as well, you know, buy condominiums

173
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 5: for everybody, right, But.

Speaker 2: and you were the only guy in in local media

176
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 2: that would come on and give his opinion. Everybody came

177
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 2: in and gave facts and you know, and gave us

178
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: and both sides every issue. But you came in and said, no, no,

Speaker 2: this city is not run properly, this county is not

180
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 2: run properly. And you made a big difference, and somebody

181
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,400

210
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 2: that SoundBite of one of these cops that got into

211
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 2: some trouble with you and he went mister gold Stain right,

212
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 2: and then and then later he found out he was

213
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 2: at the U and the hairs of your bulls and

214
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 2: he wasn't so thrilled.

215
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 5: No, it took him about five seconds to realize that

216
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 5: one of the classics the shots that we had there.

217
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 5: We went, we walked up and I forgot it and

218
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 5: David and he's like my name, and I'm like, well,

219
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 5: because you.

220
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 3: We're losing you here, buddy.

221
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 2: Let me put you on hold. Let's put him on

222
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,880
Speaker 2: hold and then we will. I'll thank you off the

223
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 2: air and text you. But I really appreciate you coming on,

224
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 2: David gold Stained. Everybody that guy was great.

225
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 5: Ah.

226
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 2: When that guy was on the air, everybody asked in

227
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,239
Speaker 2: their pants when he came around with his Jean Rayburn microphone,

228
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 2: that long ass mic that he had, and always asking people, Hey,

229
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,679
Speaker 2: what are you doing here? Why aren't you working? Why

230
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: are you drinking while you're driving the city vehicle? Why

231
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: are you drinking while you're filling potholes? Why are you

232
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 2: guys always drinking while you're working. Nobody does that anymore.

233
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 2: And look what that town has turned into. It's just

234
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 2: like a like a toilet. Well that's where we live.

235
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 2: That's where we've chosen, right. Everybody is sort of relaxed,

236
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 2: and the homeless, the trash, the crime, we just all

237
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 2: deal with it until we get wiped out. And then

238
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 2: the next generation will come by and either they'll do

239
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 2: something about it or they'll get wiped out too.

240
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 3: So welcome to LA.

241
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 7: You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI

242
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 7: AM six forty.

243
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 2: We have a new trend and I hope it doesn't

244
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 2: take off, but it is mostly suns for now, and

245
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 2: then usually, you know, five six years later, women pick

246
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 2: up on it and they jump.

247
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 3: In on it.

248
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 2: But it's it's sons killing their mom and dad. And

249
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 2: that was sort of popular way back in this eighties

250
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 2: or nineties. It started to resurface again. You had the

251
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 2: Menendez brothers, and thank god that didn't take off when

252
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:07,920
Speaker 2: the Menendez brothers killed their parents. But now I don't

253
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 2: know what's going on out there where there's a story

254
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: every couple of weeks where the son is wiping out

255
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:20,199
Speaker 2: the parents. This one happened in I think this one's

256
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 2: in New York and the other one is in Illinois,

257
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: but there were two out here in the last week

258
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 2: yesterday or day before yesterday. I think it was yesterday

259
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 2: in Van Eyes or Tarzana. And then there's another one

260
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 2: in Seeney Valley. A doctor, sixty three year old doctor

261
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 2: and a sixty six year old wife wiped out by

262
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 2: the husband's son and the step son of the woman.

263
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 2: And I hope it doesn't take off, but it looks

264
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 2: like it is. Looks like it is. This one's in Illinois.

265
00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 2: This one's outside of Sycamore, Illinois. And this one is

266
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 2: again the son wiping everybody everybody out.

267
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 5: Now to Kel County.

268
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 3: Son has been charged tonight in the murder of his parents.

269
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 8: Their bodies were found this morning in a home in Sycamore.

270
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 8: A family member called police for a welfare check after

271
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 8: not hearing from sixty year old Gary Schmidt and fifty

272
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 8: nine year old Holly Schmidt. Their son, thirty five year

273
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 8: old Kevin Schmidt, who lived in the home with him,

274
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 8: is now facing first degree murder charges. No word yet

275
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 8: on a possible motive.

276
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 2: Thirty five year old son living at home, I would

277
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 2: sleep with one eye open, all right. That was a

278
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 2: couple weeks ago that that happened. But this one is

279
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 2: a current one. I think this one was on Long.

280
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 4: Islands here for more than three decades.

281
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is you know, another story

282
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: of mom and dad working and raising a kid who's

283
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 2: thirty five, I believe, and at home and loses.

284
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 4: It Hicksville Road here in Bethpage and just a very

285
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 4: tragic situation on our hands. You can see ambulances and

286
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 4: police still here at the scene. Police are telling us

287
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 4: this is a homicide investigation. Eyewitnesses are telling us an

288
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 4: elderly couple was stabbed here. Two people stabbed and at

289
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 4: least one of them is now dead. Now, this is

290
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 4: a very emotional situation out here, as the couple's family

291
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 4: was here at the scene. Friends and customers telling us

292
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 4: the elderly couple ran the A and a Italian deli

293
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 4: here in Bethpage.

294
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 5: Ah.

295
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 3: I bet that's beautiful.

296
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 2: I bet that Italian deli made some really nice food

297
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 2: for a long time. And then the sun is putting

298
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: an end to all that.

299
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 4: An established business here for more than three decades.

300
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 2: But you can't be a great deli or a deli

301
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: in that part of a Nassau county without being great.

302
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 2: You can't survive thirty years, no way. It had to

303
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: be Fantastic Food.

304
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 4: Say, at some point right after nine o'clock this morning,

305
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 4: one of the couple's sons, who was inside the deli

306
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 4: with them, stabbed both of them. We spoke with one

307
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 4: witness who was inside the deli right when this happened.

308
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 2: You know how much anger is involved when you now,

309
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 2: you don't shoot mom and dad, you stab stab them,

310
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 2: stab them with probably knives that were bought for the restaurant.

311
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 2: You know, the chef uses the knife that you took,

312
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 2: and you killed your mom and dad and you saw

313
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 2: them die in front of you when you repeatedly stab them.

314
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 2: Can you imagine how much anger did this kid had

315
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 2: to be able to do that. It's one thing where

316
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: you shoot your parents from twenty feet away, you can't

317
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 2: really see what's going on. It's loud, there's smoke, there's screaming,

318
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 2: and you run like happen in Siam Valley in the garage.

319
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,320

Speaker 2: was coming.

325
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 4: And another eyewitness who watched all of this unfold in

326
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 4: the moments that followed, the Sun give himself up to

327
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 4: police as they then placed him on the ground. Both

328
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 4: witnesses telling us the Sun was very matter of fact

329
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 4: about all of this, despite this shocking alleged crime. Here's

330
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 4: what they had to say, is the way.

331
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,360
Speaker 9: Seems that ever happened to me in my life. Say

332
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 9: and I'm ninety seven years old.

333
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 2: Wow, that guy's ninety seven. He sounds like he's fifty seven.

334
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 9: This guy is the way seems that ever happened to

Speaker 9: me in my life. Say and I'm ninety seven years old. Wow,

336
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 9: I just seen this the son walking out and he

337
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 9: says that I choose to stay at my parents and

338
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:33,640
Speaker 9: that was it.

339
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 3: And nothing else, nothing else, nothing else.

340
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 9: He was very cool and cool and cool.

341
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 2: And now the ninety seven is coming in.

342
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 9: He was very cool and cool, cool, and.

343
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 3: I see it now like nothing happened.

344
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 10: They just taggled him and when they turned him around,

345
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 10: that's when you see the hands of old, bloody and stuff,

346
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 10: blah blah.

347
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 3: And he just sat him down and yeah, the cops

348
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: came locked it all off, but he was just sitting

349
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 3: on a car.

350
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 2: Now what happens the business golf gets folded up.

351
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 3: No one's going to take it over.

352
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 2: The whole community loses because of this nut this guy.

353
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 4: Again, these are the words of the eyewitnesses, one of

354
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 4: them an elderly man who was inside that deli when

355
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 4: it happened. Another one who literally saw the man go

356
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 4: to the ground and police taking him into custody. And

357
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 4: so what we have here again a very disturbing homicide investigation.

358
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,880
Speaker 4: It apparently involves a family, a well established business.

359
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, it sucks, it really does. Hope it's not a trend.

Speaker 2: It was a false alarm.

375
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 11: I didn't think too much about it because as soon

376
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 11: as I looked at it, I was like, where.

00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 11: That's great, man, they could possibly dream mostly that's classy.

472
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 3: He should go up to the fifth floor with them.

473
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 3: You know, we're all but there's nobody up there. Yeah,

474
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 3: but the FM stations are all up there. You got

475
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 3: Woody people. I wonder if wood he's going tonight.

476
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 2: Maybe I'll hang out with Woody if I got to

477
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 2: go by myself, you know, or you'll be there. Yeah,

478
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 2: Crowz is going. Yeah, and you're going with your wife. Yeah,

479
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 2: and your daughter.

480
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 11: She goes, No, she's got to work. She's doing, she's

481
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 11: doing stuff. Oh that's great, she's working. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

482
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 11: she's doing she's running lights for a tech show's n

483
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 11: doing tech for a show?

484
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, excellent. We gotta take a break.

485
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm okay, So I will come back and talk

486
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 2: about this stupid alert. This thing made me crazy. This

487
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 2: morning around eight o'clock, Colleen Williams busted the balls of

488
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 2: the USGS and had him explain why we all went

489
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 2: through this, because I understood that there needs to be

490
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 2: four separate detectors detecting an earthquake before we get the alert.

491
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 2: And how did this happen? How did four detectors miss

492
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 2: this and then we all got the hell scared out

493
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 2: of us at eight o'clock this morning. Well, Colleen Williams

494
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,120
Speaker 2: dives deep into it and we'll find out what happened.

495
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 7: You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on De Maya from

496
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 7: KFI Am sixty.

497
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 2: The shake alarm alert went off today. They woke me up,

498
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 2: got me up. I was up earlier than I fell asleep,

499
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 2: and then at eight o'clock when that hit, I was up.

500
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 3: I was up for the day.

501
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 2: Let's find out how this happened and why the state

502
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 2: of California, La County and LA City doesn't seem to

503
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 2: get anything right. And everybody has to be annoyed by this,

504
00:24:54,920 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 2: especially people who are terrified of earthquakes. You know, Uper

505
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,520
Speaker 2: Mark is one of them who is absolutely terrified. And

506
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 2: I'm okay with earthquakes until i get a shake alert

507
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,959
Speaker 2: that I'm about to get killed, and then that freaks

508
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 2: me out a little bit, and I don't like that.

509
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 2: So I've erased all of them. They're all off my phone.

510
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: I'm not getting any more alerts. I've asked my wife,

511
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,600
Speaker 2: please take them off your phone, because if you wake

512
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 2: up and you get alert at night, it's gonna wake

513
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,879
Speaker 2: me up too. So let's just go down together with

514
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 2: the ship. But I don't understand how this happened. There's

515
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 2: so many backups and redundancies that have to be complete,

516
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 2: have to have complete failures in order for this to happen.

517
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 2: Colleen Williams with NBC got to the bottom of it.

518
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 3: Did you feel it? And the answer is you did not.

519
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,199
Speaker 12: The USGS says a shake alert that went out this

520
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 12: morning was in fact a false alarm. My shake alerts

521
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 12: went off around eight o'clock this morning for a five

522
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:59,160
Speaker 12: point nine earthquake near the California Nevada border, about thirty

523
00:25:59,200 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 12: miles north of.

524
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 2: Tahoe, Okay, thirty miles north of Lake Tahoe. Do you

525
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 2: know how big the earthquake has to be where it's

526
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 2: centered thirty miles north of Lake Tahoe, and we get

527
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 2: the shake alert that's got to be you know, the

528
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 2: entire nation is moving.

529
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 12: It appeared on the USGS Earthquakes map, but was quickly

530
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 12: deleted right after that. And we want to bring in

531
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 12: Robert Grue with the USGS Earthquake Science Center in Pasadena.

532
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 2: Long day for this guy on X by the way,

533
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 2: a lot of complaining, a lot of people taking shots

534
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 2: at this cat from the United States Geological.

535
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 3: Center Service or whatever this guy is.

536
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 12: Thanks so much for joining us this afternoon.

537
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 3: Glad to be here. Thank you a fine pot. Do

538
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 3: you think he's glad to be here? He's about to

539
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 3: take some heat.

540
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 12: Nine is a pretty good size quake. Did you get

541
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 12: a lot of calls or feedback on this?

542
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:51,880
Speaker 11: Yes?

543
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 6: Yes, In fact, I manage our ex account and oh good,

544
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 6: I've only seen the beginnings of the replies from people

545
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 6: with ART.

546
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 3: One of them was from me, by the way, totally justified.

547
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 6: We know that people get very concerned, and we take

548
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 6: those concerns very seriously.

549
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 12: So Robert, let's break it down a little bit. What

550
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 12: would trigger an alert like this?

551
00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 6: Great question, Yes, and that's something that we're still investigating.

552
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 6: One thing that we know for sure is that the

553
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 6: Shake alert system processing side and the alert delivery side,

554
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 6: meaning the part that takes the data from the field

555
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 6: right and then hands it off to folks like my shape,

556
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 6: actually deliver the other arts performed as designed.

557
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 3: It didn't.

558
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 6: What we're looking at is that interface between the data

559
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 6: that came in from the sensors in the field, the

560
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 6: seismometers in Western Nevada, and the processing algorithms that actually

561
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 6: use that information to generate what would eventually end up

562
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 6: as an alert on the other side.

563
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 3: So there was some.

564
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 12: Sort of data that was fed in, not necessarily a

565
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 12: computer glitch here.

566
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 3: That's right.

567
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 6: Yes, So we rely completely on the sensor networks that

568
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 6: provide us with the data from the field, and then

569
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 6: we interpret that information, of course over a matter of

570
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 6: just a couple of seconds, because shakeler has to be

571
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 6: really fast to do what it does to get alerts

572
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 6: to people. And so that's really what we're looking at now.

573
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 6: But again it's really it's a multi faceted system. So

574
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 6: we want to look at how that data was interpreted

575
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 6: by the computer software that we have in place.

576
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 2: Okay, so how often are these false alarms going to happen?

577
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 2: How often are you going to cry wolf? And then

578
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,959
Speaker 2: people will say, oh, it's probably just another false alarm,

579
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 2: and then thousands of people get wiped out, and.

580
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 6: This will likely lead to some improvements and to better

581
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 6: interpretations of data coming in from the field.

582
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 12: You talk about this happening very quickly. How quickly before

583
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 12: someone realized this was in fact.

584
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 3: A false alarm? Four days?

585
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,719
Speaker 6: Yes, So one of the things, of course that we

586
00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,480
Speaker 6: did immediately is that we realized that there was no earthquake.

587
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 6: So the US just the immediate step to basically cancel

588
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 6: the notification that there was an earthquake then.

589
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 2: So it's another alert you get. You get the alert

590
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 2: that you're going to die, and then you get the

591
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 2: alert that you are not going to die. But the

592
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 2: second one freaks you out too.

593
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 6: So work directly with our alert delivery partners to let

594
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 6: them know, to get the word out on their side,

595
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 6: to let people know that there was no earthquake, and

596
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 6: of course we use folks in the media to get

597
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 6: the word out about what would actually happened. And also

598
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 6: in a very small region in eastern California, there were

599
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 6: wireless emergency alerts delivered very similar to an amber alert

600
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 6: that you'd get on your phone. There's an automated cancelation

601
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 6: message that was sent out as a result of this

602
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 6: as well, so people got notification that way.

603
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 12: One other quick questions, does this happen often?

604
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 3: No, it doesn't.

605
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 6: In fact doesn't have there's a time where what we

606
00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 6: would call an end to end false alert delivery. Very

607
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 6: careful about this. We build in all kinds of safeguards

608
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 6: including really we have to have a minimum of four

609
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 6: stations to tell us whether or not it's an earthquake

610
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 6: or not.

611
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 3: In some so all four of them have failed.

612
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 6: How today it got past the four stations, so we're

613
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 6: trying to figure that out.

614
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 12: All right, Robert, so much for your time.

615
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you, Robert, thank you. I appreciate that.

616
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 2: Appreciate that fun morning, thanks to the USGS. That was

617
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 2: a sweet morning. Enjoyed that. All right, Just another thing

618
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 2: that doesn't work here in California. All right, we still

619
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 2: have money coming in, but right now we're at over

620
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 2: one point one million dollars for the pastathon and ninety

621
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 2: two thousand pounds of postin saw us. This is without

622
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,240
Speaker 2: the numbers from Wendy's and also the final smart and

623
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 2: final numbers, so this could be one point three million.

624
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:52,040
Speaker 3: That's a big deal. Krozer.

625
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 2: I thought it'd be three hundred thousand for the day

626
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 2: and that'd be you.

627
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

628
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 11: I wasn't expecting a million, but I didn't expect it

629
00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 11: to hit them.

630
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 3: I mean, you know that. But I thought it was

631
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 3: going to be lower.

632
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 2: When John was signing off, I think it was at

633
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 2: two point fifty or three hundred.

634
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, it with some it might have been like

635
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 11: four four hundred yeah, four sounds right, something like that.

636
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 11: Maybe a little more.

637
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I'm not taking credit for going from

638
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 2: four hundred to one point one million, you know, because

639
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 2: a lot of things.

640
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 3: Happen, But somebody who is.

641
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 2: Not really trained to look at those numbers could assume

642
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 2: that that happened.

643
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 11: We will say that the crowd was much smaller before

644
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 11: you started, right, Okay, it was dramatically bigger by the end.

645
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 3: Is that right? Oh my god, I didn't know that. Yeah.

646
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,240
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, it was at least at least double Okay,

647
00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 11: Oh that's great.

648
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:43,479
Speaker 3: Yeah.

649
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 2: And you know what, I hate to take credit for that,

650
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 2: because this audience is employed, yes, and so they work.

651
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 3: That is a huge factory afternoon and your show starts

Speaker 2: have a drink and go back to work anymore. You

661
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:12,880

667
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 2: Total judgment app Yeah, right, exactly, they used to judge

668
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 2: if you didn't drink, right, that's exact opposite.

669
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 11: If the sentiment's the same, just means a different thing. Now, yes,
