1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,000 Speaker 1: John is on vacation this week. I'm here with Debra 2 00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:05,600 Speaker 1: Mark giving you the news updates. And of course the 3 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:10,120 Speaker 1: word came down last night that the word legendary doesn't 4 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:13,319 Speaker 1: even go far enough. Vin Scully, who was the voice 5 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 1: of the Dodgers for sixty seven years. You think about this, 6 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: this was the longest tenured broadcaster with a single team 7 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 1: in pro sports history. But it was more than that 8 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 1: the people that followed the Dodgers over the years because 9 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: he was their connection to the team through the radio 10 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: or through the television. He died last night at his 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: home at Hidden Hills at the age of ninety four. 12 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 1: We have an opportunity now to talk to another Dodger legend. 13 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: He's a broadcaster with the team now. He was a 14 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,520 Speaker 1: player part of the nineteen eighty one World Series champion 15 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Dodgers. Rick Monday, Rick, Welcome to the show. Good, 16 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: good afternoon. Last night was a difficult night for those 17 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: of us that knew Vin. But quite frankly, I think 18 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: anyone that ever listened to a Dodger broadcast was a 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: friend of Vince Gully or felt that that Vinnie was 20 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: a friend of theirs. I go way back, growing up 21 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: in Santa Monica. When the Dodgers first came out, I 22 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: was already attracted to the game of baseball. I was 23 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: fascinated by it even as a kid and growing up 24 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: my mom a single parent, as it too young to drive. 25 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: When we listened to the Dodger games, Vince Gully and 26 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: his broadcast partner Jerry Dogger at the time, we're in 27 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: the car, and that's how I learned a lot more 28 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 1: about baseball, and I learned a whole lot about somebody 29 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: that I think all of us, and then when I 30 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 1: say all of us, I think millions and millions of 31 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: people over the years had really looked at Vinnie as 32 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: a friend. And every time you listen to a broadcast 33 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: Kenna was almost like when you listen to Vinn begin 34 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: to do a game, it was like he was reaching 35 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,559 Speaker 1: through the radio or reaching through the television and putting 36 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: a friendly hand on your show older and saying, hey, look, 37 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: I don't know how difficult your day was today, but 38 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: for the next three hours, it's just going to be 39 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: you and me, a couple of friends, and you were 40 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: going to talk about and listen and or watch a 41 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: baseball game. And I think that's how he really impressed everyone, 42 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: because whether you knew him for twenty years or twenty seconds, 43 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: he always felt and you felt like he was a 44 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: friend at all times. When you joined the Dodger broadcast team, 45 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: what was it like in your introduction to Vince Scully 46 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: at that level, Well, at that level it had been 47 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: a little bit different because you know, growing up and 48 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: being around the Dodgers organization at time of the sort 49 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: of trying to sign me. Tommy was a scout at 50 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: the time when I was in Santa Monica High School 51 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: and trying to figure out if I was going to 52 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: sign professionally or go to college at that particular time. 53 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: Wound up going to Arizona State, but I was around 54 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: the Dodgers organization for a little bit, had not met 55 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: Finny out on the one on one situation I did 56 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: when I was playing in the National League. The irony 57 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: of it is is that my first introduction really to 58 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: Vinny when I was a member of the Chicago Cubs. 59 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: It also happened to be I think my sixth or 60 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: seventh year in the Major League to begin with, And 61 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: ironically enough, I don't think it really set into my 62 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: mother that I was in the Major leagues until she 63 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: heard the Dodgers at Wrigley Field playing against the Cubs 64 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: and Vin Scully announced the name of Rick Monday, and 65 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: for the first time my mother heard Vinny mentioned her 66 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: son's name, and my mom and I laughed about it 67 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: later on and said, well, you know, it really took 68 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: about six years for you understand that I was already 69 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: in the Big league. She says, yeah, but Vin Scully 70 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: made it official when she heard my name. That must 71 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: have been very Specially everybody wants their parents' acceptance and 72 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: love over their achievement, and that must be that really 73 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: did it for You fight for it. We fight for it. 74 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: We wonder if we're worthy of it, and have we 75 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: proved it and everything else. But it was kind of 76 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: a comical story. And I told then that that story 77 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: once and he just laughed and laughed. But the memories 78 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: that we have of then are so precious. And I 79 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: think of all of the great players over the years 80 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 1: that have put on a Dodger uniform and Hall of famers, 81 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: I really truly believe that the old time MVP and 82 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: the Dodgers has been Vin Scully, who has presented the 83 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: game of baseball in such a magnificent manner to millions 84 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: and millions of people, whether they're Dodger fans or just 85 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: baseball fans. And we're kind of getting a sense of 86 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: that quite frankly can up here in San Francisco, because 87 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 1: when we got word last night that then he had passed, 88 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: obviously there's a great deal of sadness. We knew that 89 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: he was struggling the last number of weeks, but it 90 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: is never easy to lose a friend. And when I 91 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: came on the air ride as best I could to 92 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: get words out about a word master Vin Scully, it 93 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: was difficult. In the eyring of it is, we were 94 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 1: sitting only sixty feet away from the booth that Vin 95 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 1: Scully made his last broadcast for the Dodges here in 96 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 1: San Francisco, and it was it was an eye full 97 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: of emotion. It has been a day full of emotion. 98 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: And while we miss our friend, I really cherished the 99 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: memories and the moments that we were able to share 100 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 1: here or just witness. Can you tell us something about 101 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: Vin Scully we might not know? And I realized he 102 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: was kind of a private person, and he was very humble, 103 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 1: and he almost didn't want to have his own celebrity recognized, 104 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: but is there something right? And you know him better 105 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 1: than better than most people, because Ben with all Vinny 106 00:05:54,600 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: never never for a moment dwelled on the fact that 107 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: he was loved by everyone, and he did not believe 108 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: that he was royalty, and yet all of us, serving 109 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,239 Speaker 1: as mere mortals, thought that he was. And we spent 110 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: wonderful times in the back dining room at Dodgers Stadium 111 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: before ballgames with the late Billy Delurry who joined the 112 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: Dodgers one year after Vinnie did in Brooklyn and Charlie 113 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: Steiner and I and we would sit down, the four 114 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: of us and have dinner. Occasionally Tommy Ill sorta would 115 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: come by and have dinner with us. But the stories 116 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: back there, including when vin first came out to Los 117 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: Angeles talking about one night and just a kind of 118 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: almost not a throwaway conversation, but a conversation that he 119 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: didn't think that was that big of a deal. We 120 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: learned that his neighbor when he first came out to 121 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: Los Angeles was none other than John Wooden, and they 122 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: struck up a wonderful friendship for a number a number 123 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: of years. But little things about Thenny growing up and 124 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: playing baseball at Fordham and one thing that he said 125 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: is it one day Gil Hodges asked him to put 126 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: on the uniform, knowing he had played college ball, and 127 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: he went to the outfield. He says, there was a 128 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: baseball that was hit a line drive. He said, before 129 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: I could put my glove up to catch at the 130 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: ball was past me. He says. At that moment, I 131 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: just very quietly walked off the field. I took off 132 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: the uniform and I never went back on the field 133 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: again because I realized, even though I was invited by 134 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: the great Bill Hodges, I had no business being on 135 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: that field because the ball was way too fast from 136 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: what I'd ever seen before. He had a good judgment 137 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: even of himself. When you joined the Dodger broadcast team, 138 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: did you feel any way that you had to sort 139 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: of imitate Vincekully style That did have an influencer to 140 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: kind of intimidate you. The intimidation is not a large 141 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: enough word, a word master owns the English language. Had 142 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: listened to him since I was a kid, mesmerized by 143 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: the game that he was calling. And then I remember 144 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: the first night he said to me, he said, remember 145 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: all you can be is who you are. You can 146 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: never be anyone else, and don't ever try and be 147 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: anyone else, and that it's a great thing for someone 148 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: an icon to be able to say. But for us, 149 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 1: mere mortals were saying, how on earth going to be myself? 150 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: I don't know who I am to begin with, And 151 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: especially when you're listening to a guy that's right next 152 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 1: to you, that owns the English language, it was intimidating. 153 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 1: He was gentle, and I think all of us, somehow, 154 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: in some way have gotten a better understanding of baseball 155 00:08:54,360 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: without question, humility without question, and love for a family 156 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 1: and face because then he represented that each and every 157 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: day of his wife. All right, Rick, I know you 158 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: have a game tonight. I appreciate you spending a few 159 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: minutes with me.

Did 185 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: you ever see somebody famous in public? Yes, and think 186 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: about whether or not you should go up and try 187 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: to say hello, especially if it's somebody really adored or 188 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: you know, watch them play sports or watch them in 189 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: movies or TV shows. And yes, see, Vin Scully is 190 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: a kind of guy that I think if you did 191 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: go up to him, he would smile and he would 192 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: be very kind. I think so too. Yeah, the last 193 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: celebrity I saw in public at the airport was Sean Penn. 194 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: Did you go say hey, Hi? I did not, And 195 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: you know what, that's the second time of a year 196 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: I've run into him. Isn't that weird? Really? Yes, I 197 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 1: had to have some rehab because I had some back 198 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: problems a few years back, and I went to this 199 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: place on the west side, this medical building, and there 200 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: he was sitting outside in a bench smoking, and I 201 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: had the same thing of it. I decided I passed. 202 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: Not that I'm not a fan or a big fan, 203 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: and he's kind of strange, so I just decided I 204 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: wasn't going to take that chance. But Vince Gully, I 205 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: mean I did have a chance to meet him briefly 206 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,239 Speaker 1: when John and I went up into the press area 207 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: of Dodger Stadium for a game. Just he just said hello. 208 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: And as I mentioned, when I talked to Petrouse earlier 209 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: in the show, John starting to explain who we were. 210 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: Is I know John? And can I know who you are? 211 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: That's really cool? Yeah, he was stood. I couldn't figure 212 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: out whether it was sarcastic, because you know, don't be 213 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: an idiot. Of course I know who you are. And 214 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: of course maybe the eyes are rolling. I know who 215 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: you two are, troublemakers. I don't think that, right, So 216 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: what's amazing about this? And you think about this? I 217 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: mean he starts his career as a Dodger broadcaster at 218 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: nineteen fifty, the era Pewee Reese and Jackie Robinson on 219 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: the Dodgers, and then through the sixties with drys Dalen 220 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: santy Kofax, the seventies, Steve Garve, Don Sutton, the eighties 221 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: or Hirsheiser, Fernando Valenzuela, remember Allah and the nineties Mike Piazza, 222 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: Hideo Nomo, and now we got Clayton Kershaw, and that 223 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: we had Manny Ramirez, Yasio Puig in the twenty first century, 224 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: and of course the current Dodger teams, which are the 225 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: best in years since they may be on their way 226 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: to winning another World Series. So we bring in the 227 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: Duke of Sports because you know what, what is a 228 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: guy in his twenties make of Vin Scully because he's 229 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: such a legend, been around so long. But of course 230 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: Eric sclar our, technical director, known as the Duke of Sports, 231 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: follows everything in the sports world, and I wanted to 232 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: hear his reflections for a few minutes on Vince Scully. 233 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Vince Scully is the soundtrack to my childhood. 234 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: In the summer, We've we've kind of heard it from Petros, 235 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: from from Rick Monday, and from some of your memories 236 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: as well. Ken. I mean Vin Scully, I think he 237 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: was He was the ultimate storyteller. And I mean I 238 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: just I remember sitting down watching games with my grandpa 239 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 1: and I'd be trying to ask my grandpa questions during 240 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 1: the game in the middle of it all, and my 241 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: grandpa would just say something along the lines of just like, 242 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: just just listen to Vinnie. He'll he'll tell you the answer. 243 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 1: And sure enough, every time, Vinn would have an answer 244 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: or a story about whatever I was asking about in 245 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: the game. And I mean just just so many iconic moments. 246 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I remember the I played it in the 247 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: tribute I put it in the tribute the game where 248 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: the Dodgers beat the San Diego Padres in the tenth 249 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: inning when Nomar Garcia Para hits the two run home 250 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: run for the walk off. But in the ninth inning, 251 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers were trailing nine to five, and then they 252 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: hit four home runs in a row in the bottom 253 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 1: of the ninth inning to tie the game. And I mean, 254 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: one of one of the all time moments in my life, 255 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: the Steve Finley Grand Slam to win the Division. I 256 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: remember I was at my great grandmother's assisted living facility 257 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: in Beverly Hills and we were moving rooms. We were 258 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: moving her rooms, and I had the game on on 259 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: the TV in the room we were moving her into, 260 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: and as soon as the ninth inning came up, I 261 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 1: stopped and sat down and I watched the ninth inning 262 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: and Steve Finley hits a Grand Slam home run to 263 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: win the game and win the division for the Dodgers. 264 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: I think it was like two thousand and five, two 265 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: thousand and six, and I just I remember Vin's call 266 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: of that, and I mean, there's just so many come 267 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: to mind, and really, LA sports fans, I think we've 268 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: been spoiled. We had Dave Miller for the Kings, we 269 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: had Chickherne for the Lakers, and Vince Scully for the Dodgers. 270 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: It's that raised yelling Ralph Lawler. No one cares. Ralph 271 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: Laller is Ralph Lawler. He's great, but he's the Clippers, 272 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: the Clippers. You're right, because today they're constantly switching an 273 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: ouncers with many teams. Yes, and I will there's no 274 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: patience anymore with anybody. Yeah, and I will say, I 275 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: mean Joe Davis has done an incredible job filling in 276 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: for or Vince Scully since Vinn has retired, and I mean, 277 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: no one will ever replace Vinn. But I think Dodgers, 278 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: Dodgers fans got lucky with Joe replacing him. Yeah, I 279 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: wanted to call you in two because you're younger and 280 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: the fact that radio, you know, has lost its appeal 281 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 1: somewhat where people are more glued to their phones. It's 282 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: funny though their devices, and they're more like or if 283 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna, I'm gonna pay attens to Dodgers at all. 284 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: I want to have the TV on, you know. Of 285 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: course Vince is on TV, too, but I'm talking about 286 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: The real way that he really cemented his relationship with 287 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: everybody was through the radio. Yeah, for sure. And it's 288 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: funny though, because when I was younger, obviously my parents 289 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: had to set bedtime for me, and no matter if 290 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: the game was still going, I had to go to bed, 291 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: and I would just pretend to go to sleep, and 292 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: I would have a little radio in my room and 293 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: I would turn it on and I would listen to 294 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: the end of Laker games with Chick Hearn, the end 295 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: of Dodger games with Vince Scully, and that's how I 296 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: would fall asleep. All right, that's the Duke of Sparks. 297 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 1: It's our technical director, Eric Sklar, and you will hear 298 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 1: later on during the five o'clock hour he put together 299 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: a tribute to Vince Scully his calls in sports over 300 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: the years, most of them baseball, but there's football in there. 301 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: There's the catch by Dwight Clark that I was a 302 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: Cowboys fan. Then don't ask me why I'm really a 303 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: Jets fan. And now I'm ram sand But I was 304 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 1: a Cowboys fan back in the seventies into the eighties, 305 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: and that was a killer. But and I actually had 306 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: forgotten that he called that because his football years announcing 307 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: don't stick in my head obviously as much as his baseball, 308 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: but that he was a national broadcaster when he did 309 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 1: the NFL. He also did golf, so I'll be playing 310 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 1: that in the five o'clock hour coming up too. The 311 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: Rick Munday flag grab is in the tribute as well. 312 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: You did a good job putting together a lot of 313 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 1: stuff from over the years of Vince Scully, even stuff 314 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: from back in the day. Coming up next, Steve Paul 315 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: is going to come back on the show.

They finally caught those two men 319 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: that they believe are responsible for this crime spree which 320 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: a couple of people died in a number of other wounded, 321 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 1: including Jason. He wants to give us an update on 322 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: his son's condition and to thank our listeners because the 323 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 1: go fund me for Jason was very successful and obviously 324 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: you can still give go fund me.

Guys with masks, 330 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: guys with guns. They're pulling backwards for a fast getaway. 331 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: They're gonna come in here and rob me. So he 332 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 1: was ready with his shotgun, and of course he fired 333 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 1: off a shot and he got one of the robbers 334 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: right there on the shoulder.

You'll hear it, and it's entirety. 338 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: It's going to actually come in two parts because we 339 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 1: spent some time with Craig to get the whole detail 340 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: of the story. That'll come up after the news right 341 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: away at five oh five here on the John and 342 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: Ken Show. Now, one of the things we've mentioned when 343 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: we talked to Craig was those horrible seven eleven robberies 344 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: that happened a month or two back. They did eventually 345 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: arrest two Los Angeles men for robbing these seven elevens, 346 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: but that wasn't the worst part they shot people. They 347 00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: killed two people and wounded several others, and one of 348 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 1: the men that they seriously wounded out on Riverside is 349 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: Jason Harrold. His father, Steve Paul, reached out to us 350 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: came on the show to talk about Jason Harold and 351 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: his recovery, and then we pointed people to a go 352 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: fund okay, and we pointed people to a go fund me. 353 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: So he wrote to us today asking if he could 354 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: come on the show for a follow up on his 355 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: son's condition. He wrote that he's in the hospital and 356 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: he's been there for three weeks as of last Monday, 357 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: and they wanted to come back on the show and 358 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: talk with us about his progress and developments that haven't 359 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: been discussed too much in the media. So let's bring 360 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: Steve Paul back onto the show. How are you, Steve, 361 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 1: I'm doing great, Ken, How are you just fine? So 362 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,719 Speaker 1: I guess the real question is how is Jason well? 363 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: As you all know or don't know, he was shot 364 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: below his left ear, which paralyzed his whole right side arm, leg, eyeball, 365 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 1: and then in the last it was three weeks ago, 366 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: davidfore yesterday, when has happened on the eleventh of July, 367 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 1: and about a day ago when my wife went in, 368 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: she said, Jason, are you hungry, and the nurse and 369 00:19:54,080 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: the sitter and my wife heard him say yeah. So 370 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: that's the only thing that's happened since I've spoken with 371 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: you guys. He's been just in miserable pain and they're 372 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: trying out different pain killers event and all oxycott and 373 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: it's just really heartbreaking to see. But I have to 374 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 1: be there for him, and that's what I've been doing. 375 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, absolutely, and then I'm glad to hear that 376 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,719 Speaker 1: and thank you for that. He's going to need all 377 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: the support he can get from what will probably I 378 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 1: guess still be a long recovery. Huh, Well, he's gonna 379 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 1: need yeah, they said, he's going to need probably you know, 380 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: permanent care and they'll know within about three months what 381 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: damage has actually done because the swelling of the brain 382 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: is still going down and sometimes that swelling will affect 383 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: the areas and when it goes away, they get those 384 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 1: areas back. So we do have something, you know, to 385 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: look forward to, hopefully. And he is still being too 386 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: fed through his stomach through it two sometimes assisted on 387 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,479 Speaker 1: his breathing, but I think that's some automatic thing if 388 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 1: he's not taken enough, you know, breaths while while he's there. Yeah, yes, no, 389 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: I was just going to ask you. I don't think 390 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: we've talked to you since they arrested these two men 391 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: in connection with the seven eleven shooting in robbery spree. Well, 392 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: we went through a little tragedy on that one too, 393 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 1: because the one person that shot our son, he's without bail. 394 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 1: What happened was is it at forty six or forty 395 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: seven and they don't let you be an accomplice to it, 396 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: and they let you out on a lower bail now 397 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 1: or anyway, they gave him a hundred thousand dollars bail 398 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: ken if you can imagine that. My attorney and I'm 399 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: sorry my district attorney, everybody called. They dug up so 400 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: many charges against the guy. He's not getting out on 401 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: bail as well. So we were kind of freaking out 402 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: there for a few days until they got that information 403 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 1: that get holding, you know, so they're in for the 404 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: duration of twelve good men and women. Yeah, apparently there 405 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: was the one man. This isn't something I didn't see 406 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:19,159 Speaker 1: an update on that. One of the two men was 407 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 1: the shooter. He was not, and the other man was 408 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: not seen in any of the surveillance camera photos that 409 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,640 Speaker 1: came out, so there was still some speculation. We talked 410 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: to the Orange County District Attorney, Todd Spitzer, when these 411 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: arrests were announced. They were arrested in LA but Todd 412 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 1: Spitzer was in on the prosecution, and he said, were 413 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: they weren't sure what the other man's involvement really was. 414 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: That these two knew each other and that they were 415 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: clearly conspiring to rob seven elevens, but he wasn't sure 416 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: what this other man's involvement was. He was a neighbor 417 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: and they both were in some type of delivery service. 418 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure what, but he was. Yeah, I just wanted 419 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: was he like a drive getaway driver with the car 420 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: or was he there when these robberies and shootings took 421 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: place or did we not know that yet? Was he 422 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:15,959 Speaker 1: his mentor you know this? Yeah, he's forty eight and 423 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: the other guy that shut my son is twenty two. 424 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: So it's yeah, I'm I'm glad if people, you know, 425 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: get a little more info. But they they caught up 426 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: with him on past past charges and stuff that he 427 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 1: uh got complied on. I'm really glad too that they're 428 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: doing this in Orange County. Yeah, you should be, because 429 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,360 Speaker 1: in La County it really is just a terrible roulette 430 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 1: wheel of justice that we have here. Yeah. The two 431 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: it's twenty year old Malik pat and forty four year 432 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: old Jason Payne were the two guys that were arrested, 433 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: and it said pattis believed to be the primary suspect. 434 00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: The twenty year old is the one that probably shot 435 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: your son, and the forty four year old they were 436 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,479 Speaker 1: still trying to come up with his role in all. 437 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: They should think it may have been his mentor that 438 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 1: they made plotted these robberies, or you know, it's just 439 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: thoughts that came to my family. We all kind of 440 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,879 Speaker 1: thought it all at once, so, you know, I don't know, 441 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,479 Speaker 1: it's probably the way we were brought up in everything 442 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: to think that way, but it just seems kind of 443 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 1: odd that that age difference would be there for someone 444 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 1: to be going out and doing these things. Yeah. What 445 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: did you think of the story this week with the 446 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: with the Craig, the Norcoe liquor store owner who shot 447 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: back at the robber that came in with the gun. 448 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: Have you have you been following that one. I sure 449 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,439 Speaker 1: wish our son was going in there instead of the 450 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: seven eleven because he'd still be on two feet right now. Yeah, absolutely, so, Steve, 451 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: give give the go fund me again for your son. 452 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: We know that our listeners really pitched in to help out. 453 00:24:54,760 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: I please, could I please thank everyone for that?

And we're getting pretty close 459 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 1: to where we'll be okay for a couple of months, 460 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: and I was just hoping maybe we could have you 461 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,479 Speaker 1: share with some friends out there and everything.

He did 470 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: answer that he was hungry, right he said, he said 471 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: one word in the last three three weeks. Progress may 472 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: be slow, but hopefully this progress, oh my gosh. We 473 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: were very happy about that.

He is the man who was behind the 496 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 1: counter at his own liquor store in Norco and when 497 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: he saw it was going on outside in the parking 498 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: lot very early in the morning on Sunday, he knew 499 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 1: it wasn't good news, so he positioned himself with his shotgun, 500 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: and sure enough, when one of the robbers came in 501 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 1: waving his gun in the air and tell everybody hands up, 502 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: and of course Craig was the only one in the store, 503 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: he took no chances and he fired.

They are to all four men 506 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 1: because they did take the injured guide to the hospital 507 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 1: and that's where the police caught up at them. Not 508 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: that long after this attempted robbery, because apparently Craig said, 509 00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: the cops got there pretty quick. So I'll talk to 510 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 1: him at five oh five. You'll hear his story in 511 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: his own words, A very, very humble guy. And speaking 512 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: of humble, Vince Scully, of course, passed away at the 513 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 1: age of ninety four. I think what they say is, 514 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, you celebrate the life, because if you lived 515 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 1: in ninety four and you've had a life like Vince Scully, 516 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: you really just want to You're sad, but you also 517 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 1: want to celebrate it because it was amazing sixty seven 518 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: years the voice of the Dodgers, and they're gonna light 519 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: up City Hall and Blue Dodger Blue Tonight to honor 520 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: Vince Scully. The tributes I'm sure will continue for days 521 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: and weeks after this deb Mark give a backyard kind 522 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: of it's more like a front yard, but we considered 523 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: a backyard. It's a very unusual house. Well, when I 524 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: saw this story on the the other night, I thought, Wow, 525 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: there's nothing people won't do now, and apps just make 526 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: it so easy to do. Of course, everybody's familiar with Airbnb, 527 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: where you can rent somebody's home when they're not there, 528 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: or maybe it's an extra home they have that they 529 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: rent out the people for a week or a weekend 530 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: or whatever. I mean, that took off like crazy. But 531 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: now in this era of inflation and people always trying 532 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: to get you know, smart about making a buck, there 533 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: is an app. Well, you can rent out your backyard 534 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: for dogs to play in. Oh that's so cute. All 535 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: I thought of was the poop. Well, it's called Scooper. 536 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 1: You've got to clean up the mess every time you 537 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: have a group of dogs that leaves your yard. It's 538 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 1: just foul. It makes five minutes. Really, what what if 539 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: it's big dogs of gross? Oh? Yeah, because you have 540 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: these little creatures that just like pebbles come out. Sniff 541 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: Spot is the name of the app. The founder is 542 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 1: David Adams. Sniff Spot is by dog lovers for dog lovers, 543 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: Which is why I mentioned you, because I thought, you 544 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: know you love your dogs. You're a dog lover. Maybe 545 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: you'd want to have a few more over in your 546 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: backyard if you rented it out for an hour or 547 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: two for the dogs to play in. Because I've seen 548 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 1: this problem where I live. In other places, people complain 549 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: there aren't enough dog parks very true in LA. That's 550 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: probably really true, isn't it. Yes, do you have any 551 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 1: near you? Well, yes, I do go to this one. 552 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: It's not really a traditional dog park, and you're really 553 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: not supposed to bring dogs, but everybody does, and everybody 554 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: lets their dogs. That's funny. You said that. There's a 555 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: park down the street from me. Yeah, and I see 556 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 1: dogs in there all the time. But one day I 557 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: took her closer. Look on this sign says no dogs. Yeah, 558 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: same thing where I go. But everybody does it. Yeah, 559 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 1: so there's no enforcement, No, not at all. The big 560 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: thing they're trying to do where I live now is 561 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: make sure you have your dog on a leash if 562 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: you walk it around, because a lot of people like 563 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: to do that here too, just let their dogs run crazy. 564 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: It's just it's a trail and a path that a 565 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: dog can run ahead and I'm free. I'm free, and 566 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: they look really wild and excited. But that can get 567 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 1: out of control pretty quickly. If they run into another 568 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 1: dog or some animal they chase, they can run over 569 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: by a car. Then it's not so much fun anymore. 570 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: And of course the gold standard is the dog beach, 571 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: which those are really rare, particularly in La County to 572 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,719 Speaker 1: have a dog beach. Long Beach has a pretty big one. 573 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: You ever been down there? No, pretty big dog beach. No, 574 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,239 Speaker 1: I've never taken my dogs to the beach. The San 575 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: Diego dog Beach is awesome. I would go down there 576 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: with my aunt and she would bring her dogs. It 577 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 1: was so cool. It is. I don't even have a dog, 578 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: but sometimes if I'm there, I do watch them play. 579 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: It's funny to see all the dogs run around like nuts, 580 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 1: jumping on each other. It is so that's sniff spot. 581 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: The other opportunity that you might have, and I don't 582 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: know the ancience his fault. I ask you, do you 583 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: have a backyard pool? Yes? Ah, you can rent that 584 00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: out too, now for dogs, No, for people. Depart I'm 585 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: just kidding, no, thank you, No way. A dog party 586 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: in the pool would be cute. I'm not renting it 587 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: out to people. God knew. So you're okay with dogs 588 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: in your backyard, but you wouldn't want to have people 589 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: in your pool. So you kind of dog poop but 590 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: not human poop. Absolutely, yeah. Imagine that people vomiting in 591 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: your pool and partying. And I wouldn't do either. I 592 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: don't have a yard, and if I had a pool, 593 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: I wouldn't rent it out to strangers. But I can 594 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 1: understand some people want to make a little money on 595 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: the side, so they don't want to pass up an 596 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: opportunity this. Now, the thing about it that I wondered, 597 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: you have to be present with your dog and the 598 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: dogs are required to be vaccinated. Makes sense. I don't know. 599 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:47,479 Speaker 1: Maybe you upload something online to prove that. Sniff Spot 600 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: provides two million dollars of liability insurance for the hosts, 601 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: so that's they must take a cut of whatever money 602 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,239 Speaker 1: is paid for this from the app. So that's how 603 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: they can cover the liability insurance. Because the dog bites 604 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: another dog and you have to take it to the hospital. Yeah, although, well, 605 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: I guess if you did this, you could bring a 606 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 1: group of neighborhood dogs with you, Like your friends could 607 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: all get together and rent somebody's backyard to have run 608 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: around for an hour or two. I guess you could 609 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: do that. But you're right, something could go wrong. Yeah, exactly, exactly. 610 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 1: Then the app about renting pools that are local to you, 611 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: they offer one million dollars an insurance for hosts for 612 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: every single booking. Because that could be a liability too. 613 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: What if for kid drowns absolutely or somebody jumps in 614 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 1: and hits their head. You are limited exclusively to the 615 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: pool area, and there's an adult that has to know 616 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: how to swim at all times. It is there so 617 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: kind of like a lifeguard. They claim that they do 618 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: inspections with a third party. Sometimes they bring in a 619 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 1: pool maintenance company to make sure that your pool is 620 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: kind of up to standards, and they claim they're not 621 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: going to just you know, have any riff reff dangerous 622 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 1: pool and other cases, we have a pool team reach 623 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: out to someone and do a FaceTime sort of tour 624 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: of the pool. Yeah. They do make money based on 625 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: commission with their hosts, both apps or hourly rentals. The 626 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,760 Speaker 1: host does set the price, the availability, and the rules, 627 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: saying could range. It says here for the dogs, it's 628 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: four to twenty dollars an hour. It's not bad if 629 00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 1: you bring a group of people and a bunch of dogs. 630 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: Pool rentals are thirty five to fifty, But that can 631 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: get out of hand. What if somebody has to use 632 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: the restroom? Ken, Yeah, that's another good question. You're right. 633 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: I don't think you get your inside house privileges to 634 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: use the restroom. Is there a tree? That's a good question, Denmark. 635 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what happens, because if you rent somebody's 636 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: backyard pool for hours and you're having a good time, 637 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 1: you could easily see the need to go to the 638 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: bathroom absolutely, And I guess it's up to the homeowner 639 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: to decide whether or not you get restroom privileges, all right, 640 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 1: Coming up next to my conversation with Craig Cope. Craig 641 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: Cope is the man that decided he was going to 642 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: take action when an armed robber entered his liquor store 643 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: in Norcoe early Sunday morning. He'll hear his first hand story. 644 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: Coming up next John and Ken's show on kf I 645 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,719 Speaker 1: Am six forty in Deborah. Mark has a news
