The Art of the Deal with Paramount and Warner Bros
Hour 1 (09.21)  Mark’s limping into the Conway castle with a mystery ankle, a Chargers-shaped hole in his wallet, and Petros Papadakis of “Petros and Money” booming in for backup — while Timmy takes a “We Buy Junk Cars” card on his 2020 luxury ride as a personal insult. The losing streak continues: $14,000 at the track, then a dead Arby’s gift card in Long Beach (hold the cheese). Mark remembers poker with late “Simpsons” creator Sam Simon, who got clipped for $600 by ALT 98.7’s Booker, and some ranking of L.A.-born radio legends has Conway at No. 46. F them. Tomorrow’s the first day of fall; September 26 is LA’s equal-day-and-night equinox. Paramount and Warner Bros. settle the multi-state antitrust fight: Rob Bonta says they stay put instead of fleeing to Nashville or Atlanta, the merger can proceed on those terms, and the Writers Guild gets $7.5 million. Bellio’s a sweetheart — Marilyn’s old psychic Kenny Kingston would say so — Mark’s telethon psychic promised him $3,394 (didn’t happen), and a doctor at a Walk for Autism quietly ran Timmy through the seven screening questions (also didn’t happen).  6:05 —Hobbling Mark is in the house with Timmy Conway Jr. and special cameo guest, the bellowing-voiced Petros Papadakis from the “Petros and Money” show! They’re chitchatting about Marky Mark’s mysterious broken ankle and the LA Chargers, who are apparently in big trouble this season and therefore, Mark is losing moolah. Timmy is rather offended about the “We Buy Junk Cars” business card that was placed on his luxury vehicle, which is a 2020 model.  6:20 — Timmy lost $14,000 gambling at the track this weekend. To console himself, he went to Arby’s in Long Beach and because he was cleaned out, he had to use a gift card — that didn’t end up working, even without the cheese. Mark recalls the time he played in a poker game with late creator of “The Simpsons,” Sam Simon, who got ripped off by Booker of ALT 98.7’s “Booker & Stryker” fame to the tune of $600. We also find out that of the all-time most popular radio personalities born and raised in LA, Timmy is rated No. 46. F them.  6:35 — Tomorrow is the first day of fall! On September 26 we have equinox day in LA — that’s the only day of the year when we have daylight and nighttime equally. And now to the Paramount and Warner Bros. merger: The two companies were sued by multiple states for violating antitrust law, but California AG Rob Bonta has just announced that the entertainment giants have reached a deal that means they will not move headquarters to Nashville or Atlanta, and the merger is able to go ahead, provided they adhere to the terms of the agreement. The Writers Guild receives $7.5 million as part of the deal.  6:50 — Is Conway producer Bellio a sweet spirit? She sure is! Marilyn Monroe’s favorite and only psychic Kenny Kingston, who never paid for parking, would agree with that sentiment. Speaking of which, Mark had a peculiar interaction with a psychic at a telethon, who predicted he would come into $3,394. Spoiler: He did not. Also, Timmy recalls the time he was at a Walk for Autism event and a doctor slyly asked him the seven questions doctors ask to see if someone has autism. Spoiler: He did not.  Thanks for listening to Tim Conway Jr. on KFI! πŸŽ™οΈ  #Morongo #PetrosandMoney #LosAngelesChargers #PetrosPapadakis #DelMar #Arbys #LongBeach #TheSimpsons #SamSimon #Booker&Stryker #WeBuyJunkCars #equinox #RobBonta #WritersGuild #ParamountWarnerBros #KennyKingston #WalkforAutism #TheConwayShow #autism #TACA See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We Got Conway Kitty-Cats Galore and a Scam Involving the Garage Door!
Hour 2 (09.21) Timmy caught a stunner of a Huntington Beach sunset Saturday, then reality: El Niño is pointed at LA, Gavin Newsom has declared a state of emergency, and Conway’s shopping flood insurance like everybody else who’s sick of home premiums, HOAs, and special assessments. Mark’s ankle has him in full James Caan “Misery” mode — hobbling, bedbound, miserable — but newlywed Courtney is no Annie Wilkes; she’s at the pet store grabbing supplies for two new kittens. The El Niño emergency is for weather that isn’t even here yet: high tides, floods, winter storms, snow if it gets ugly. Nicolas Cage’s place on Malibu’s Sea Level Drive is already red-tagged after a sinkhole opened in front of it and blocked the street, plus there’s a new garage-door scam making the rounds. Timmy hits a live Rams–Giants update (no spoilers), then Newport’s vanishing beach: they’re hauling 200,000 cubic yards of sand — a football field 3.5 feet deep — from the West Newport river bottom down to The Wedge before the surf eats more coast.  7:05 — Timmy was on beautiful Huntington Beach Saturday night and enthralled by the sunset. El Nino is on its way to LA, so Gov. Gavin Newsom has declared a state of emergency. Timmy is shopping for new flood insurance for his home. The crew (and the entire world) agrees that they are no fans of the exorbitant cost of home insurance, HOAs and special assessments.   7:20 — Mark is griping about his destroyed ankle, how it makes him feel like James Caan in “Misery,” bedbound, hobbling and utterly miserable. So, does that make his beautiful newlywedded wife Courtney the Kathy Bates character Annie Wilkes? Hardly, she’s at the pet store right now picking up pet supplies for the two new kitties they’re adopting!  7:35 — To Gavin Newsom’s state of emergency because of El Nino, which isn’t here yet. How d we prepare and capitalize on this strange weather event, which might not even happen? Worst case scenario is high tides, flooding, winter storms and snow. Nicholas Cage’s home on Malibu’s Sea Level Drive has already been red tagged because of the giant sinkhole that opened up in front of it, blocking access to other homes along the street. Also, we now must be aware of the latest scam involving garage doors.   7:50 — Timmy gives us a live Rams vs. New York Giants update. Won’t spoilt it for you here! To Newport Beach and its disappearing sand thanks to El Nino, they’re having to ship 200,000 cubic yards of sand (enough to fill one football field with 3.5 feet of sand) from West Newport Beach’s river bottom to Orange County’s Wedge thanks to crashing, heavy surf that’s eroded the coastline.   Thanks for listening to Tim Conway Jr. on KFI! πŸŽ™οΈ  #HuntingtonBeach #ElNino #GavinNewsom #stateofemergency #floodinsurance #HOA #JamesCaan #Misery #KathyBates #AnnieWilkes #NichoasCage #Malibu #KFI #ConwayShow #SeaLevelDrivesinkhole #garagedoorscam #NewYorkGiants #Chargers #NewportBeach #sandnourishmentproject See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Streaming is Beaming, the Rams are Ruling and Good Golly It’s Dolly!
Hour 3 (09.21) Timmy’s been a lifelong Rams guy since the third grade, rocking that old white-and-blue jacket every day until the team switched to yellow and blue and little Timothy upgraded on the spot — which is still a happier fate than his cousin, a die-hard Detroit Lions fan still reeling from Matthew Stafford bolting to LA.   Do not take Mark’s bookie tips, because Mr. Cankle cannot catch a break at the windows. Tragic news out of South LA, where a worker at a senior living facility opened fire in the lobby and seriously wounded three coworkers.   Marky Mark and Timmy Tim agree TV and streaming have never been better — back in Tim’s day, NBC, CBS and ABC had lawyers and sponsors breathing down their necks, and now streaming has forced everybody to raise their game. Over the weekend, a man rode trains and buses all over the West Coast while spreading measles. And Dolly Parton gets her day in California on September 25 — nine to five, get it?   The Chargers may be in the doldrums, but the 49ers haven’t won a Super Bowl since 1994 and the Cowboys since 1995. Check out Mark on YouTube with “The Mark Thompson Show”!    8:05 —Did you know? Timmy is a lifelong Rams fan and used to wear his white-and-blue Rams jacket to school every day in the Third Grade. Then the team changed their colors to yellow and blue, so Lil Timothy upgraded. He’s fared so much better than his cousin who is a lifelong Detroit Lions fan and is devastated that Matthew Stafford left and went to LA.  8:20 — Do not take Mark’s advice at the bookies because Mr. Cankle cannot catch a break when it comes to betting. To the tragedy today at a senior living facility in South LA, where a worker there got miffed about having to, y’know, work, so he grabbed a handgun and opened fire in the lobby, seriously wounding three of his coworkers.  8:35 — Marky Mark and Timmy Tim agree that TV and streaming shows have never been better. When Tim was growing up, NBC, CBS and ABC had lawyers constantly telling them what they could or couldn’t do, plus commercial concerns, so now the bar has been raised, what with streaming forcing networks to up their creative game. Over the weekend, a man was riding trains and buses all over the West Coast, spreading measles. And now, Dolly Parton will have her day in California on September 25. Geddit? Nine to five!  8:50 — The Chargers may presently be in the doldrums, but did you know last time the San Francisco 49ers won a Super Bowl was in 1994?! And the last time the Dallas Cowboys won was in 1995! Check out Mark on YouTube with “The Mark Thompson Show”!  Thanks for listening to Tim Conway Jr. on KFI! πŸŽ™οΈ  #Rams #Giants #Raiders #Chargers #DetroitLions #MatthewStafford #nursinghomeshooting #SouthLA #EmmyAwards #NBC #CBS #ABC #RideorDie #Brothers #AppleTV #Friends #DollyParton #DollyPartonDay #9to5 #JoStafford See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From Psychic Sweet Souls to Pet-Shop A-Holes
Hour 4 (09.21)  Mark hobbles in with a mystery ankle and a Chargers-sized dent in his bankroll, Petros Papadakis of “Petros and Money” piles on with that foghorn voice, and Timmy finds a “We Buy Junk Cars” card on his 2020 luxury ride — ding-dong, it’s not a junker. The losing streak includes $14,000 at the track and a penance Arby’s in Long Beach with no drink.   Mark remembers poker with late “Simpsons” creator Sam Simon getting clipped for $600 by ALT 98.7’s Booker, and an L.A.-born radio ranking has Conway at No. 46. F them. Bellio’s a sweetheart (Kenny Kingston would agree), Mark’s telethon psychic promised $3,394 (nope), and a Walk for Autism doctor ran Timmy through the seven screening questions (also nope).   Then cat chaos: The Conway house once had 22 of them, they gave most away at Gelson’s including Mom’s favorite, a store wouldn’t let her take an indoor-only cat, so Timmy pretended he wasn’t her son to adopt it. The pile-on was immense.  9:05 — Mark Thompson’s limping into the Conway castle with a mystery ankle and a lighter wallet — the Chargers are tanking and taking his bets with them. Petros Papadakis of “Petros and Money” drops in with that foghorn voice to pile-on. Then Timmy finds a “We Buy Junk Cars” card on his 2020 ride and takes it personally. It’s a luxury car, ding-dong, not a junker.  9:20 — Timmy dropped $14,000 at the track this weekend — and the humiliation tour continued at an Arby’s in Long Beach, where he purposefully did not buy himself a drink, as an exercise in self punishment. Mark flashes back to a poker table with the late “Simpsons” creator Sam Simon, who got taken for $600 by ALT 98.7’s Booker. Then the insult: Some all-time LA-born radio ranking puts Conway at No. 46. F them.  9:35 — Bellio’s a sweet spirit — even Marilyn Monroe’s old psychic Kenny Kingston (the guy who never paid for parking) would back that up. Mark once got a telethon psychic who swore he’d come into $3,394. He did not. Timmy remembers a Walk for Autism where a doctor quietly ran him through those seven screening questions. Also not a match. Two spoilers, zero jackpots.  9:50 — Mark is a cat lover, as was the Conway household when Timmy was a lad. At one point, the Conways had 22 cats meowing around the house! So much so, they gave most of them away at the local Gelson’s, and unfortunately that included Mrs. Conway’s beloved cat. She tried to adopt another purrer, but the pet store wouldn’t allow it because the cat in question was an indoor cat only, so Timmy had to go in and pretend he was unrelated to his mom so he could adopt it for her. The pile-on was immense!  Thanks for listening to Tim Conway Jr. on KFI! πŸŽ™οΈ  #TimConwayJr #MarkThompson #PetrosPapadakis #PetrosAndMoney #Chargers #WeBuyJunkCars #HorseRacing #Arbys #TheSimpsons #SamSimon #BookerAndStryker #LARadio #Bellio #KennyKingston #WalkForAutism #CatLovers #Gelsons #KFIAM640 #ConwayShow #Catadoption See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wheeled to Court, She Never Appeared
Hour 1 (09.18) She was wheeled into a San Fernando courtroom on a gurney to face murder charges — and never made it in front of a judge. Plus, the losses of LA's news community is still absorbing.  6:05 — Bailee Lynn Rios, the Simi Valley woman charged in Tuesday's Metro bus crash in Chatsworth, arrived at Superior Court in San Fernando by ambulance and was wheeled in on a gurney, but never appeared before the judge. She faces murder, DUI and reckless-driving charges; bail is $4.03 million. A new video shows her bloodied in the wrecked SUV moments after impact. Investigators say they found hard drugs in her car, and a family friend says addiction had taken over her life in recent years. Also: a heartbreaking week for L.A. and for this news community.  6:20 — A new study in Scientific Data puts Greenland and Antarctica's ice loss at 12.5 trillion tons since the 1970s, and here's the part nobody expects: roughly five-sixths of it came from warm ocean water eating the glaciers from underneath, not from sunshine melting the top. Meanwhile, the ocean took a bite out of Nicolas Cage's Malibu house — a 30-by-30-foot sinkhole swallowed the driveway, triggered a gas leak, and got five oceanfront homes red-tagged.  6:35 — George Marciniw, the pilot killed in the NBC4 news helicopter crash, was Burbank High class of '74 and never really left the neighborhood — the Blue Room knew him. A longtime colleague says he "flew that helicopter just like a feather."  6:50 — An installer on a GFiber job in Irvine asked a customer to hand over her phone to "test the Wi-Fi," then texted an explicit video from it to himself, police say. Logan Edward Gray-McCannon, 37, of Hemet is charged with commercial burglary, unauthorized computer access and sharing a private sexual image — and Irvine PD believes there are more victims.

Best Burgers in L.A. and Why Simple Wins
Hour 2 (09.18) Conway says A.I. isn't smart at all — and Neil's going off the roof of a 25-story hotel to raise money for Skid Row. Plus, the best burger in L.A. is also the simplest one.  7:05 — Neil Saavedra, KFI's Fork Reporter, throws down a climate change-and-A.I. challenge: is this the end of the world, or is the whole thing oversold? His argument is that A.I. isn't smart at all — its reductionism dressed up as intelligence. Is Siri even A.I.? A walk through the different types, and why everything in this world matters.  7:20 — National Cheeseburger Day, and the best burger in L.A. turns out to be the plainest one on the menu. Meat, cheese, bun, done. The case against everything else you're paying for.  7:35 — Neil is going Over the Edge for Union Rescue Mission — rappelling 25 stories down the side of the Universal Hilton, September 25 and 26, to fund beds and meals on Skid Row. Every rappeler raises at least $1,000 to get on the rope.  7:50 — Winning in life isn't the scoreboard.

Garden Hose Collapsed a Hollywood Hillside
Hour 3 (9.18) An unattended hose put about 7,000 gallons into a pool above Wilcox Avenue and took the hillside out from under it. Plus, Sushiya is closing after 28 years on Sunset.  8:05 — LAFD says a hose left running to fill a swimming pool sent roughly 7,000 gallons into the slope above the 1900 block of North Wilcox Avenue, pressurizing a retaining wall until it failed Friday afternoon. Cinder's blocks hit a vacant building below; eight apartment units on Grace Avenue were evacuated and later cleared, and crews siphoned the water out in about 90 minutes. Also: Sushiya, the sushi room at 8650 Sunset in Sunset Plaza, closes September 29 after 28 years.  8:20 — WDCD — What Did Conway Do? A Jamba Juice predicament, and the larger confession underneath it: Conway physically cannot send something back. Bad smoothie, wrong order, fly in the soup — he drinks it, eats it, says thank you. Plus, where the best street tacos actually are.  8:35 — Sammy Long from Not Quite Ringside on AM 570 KLAC with his picks for Sunday: Packers over the Jets, Texans over the Bengals, Chargers over the Raiders, Jaguars over the Broncos, and Washington over Dallas.  8:50 — We close the week remembering Eliana Moreno and George Marciniw of NewsChopper4, and Edy Gutierrez Mejia on the ground, after Tuesday's crash in Chatsworth. The helicopter was covering a Metro bus collision a few blocks away when it went down. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is Siri A.I.? Plus, the Best Burger in LA
Hour 4 (9.18) The best burger in Los Angeles isn't the $38 one with bordelaise sauce on it. Neil Saavedra stops in to argue about climate change, explain why A.I. isn't actually smart, and then go off a building.  9:05 — A new study in Scientific Data puts Greenland and Antarctica's ice loss at 12.5 trillion tons since the 1970s, and the surprise is where it's going: roughly five-sixths of that loss comes from warm ocean water eating the glaciers from underneath, not sunshine melting the top. Meanwhile, the ocean took its own bite out of Nicolas Cage's Malibu house — a 30-by-30-foot sinkhole swallowed the driveway and got five oceanfront homes red-tagged.  9:20 — Neil Saavedra, the Fork Reporter, brings the climate change and A.I. challenge. Is this the end of the world? And is A.I. smart at all, or are we just calling pattern-matching "intelligence"? Is Siri A.I.? What the different types of A.I. actually are, why reductionism gets it wrong, and the case that everything in this world matters.  9:35 — The best burger in L.A. is a simple burger. Time Out's #1 is a $38 double at Petit Trois with house made bordelaise; the Apple Pan's hickory burger is $11.25 and has been on the same griddle since 1947. Bills in Van Nuys will make you a bacon cheeseburger for nine dollars. Two patties, cheese, sauce, bun. That's it.  9:50 — Neil is going Over the Edge for Union Rescue Mission — rappelling 25 stories down the side of the Universal Hilton on September 25 and 26 to fund beds, meals, recovery and job training on Skid Row. Every rappeler must raise at least $1,000 to get on the rope, and URM says 87 cents of every dollar goes straight to the programs.
