Hour 1 (11.06) Three men tried to fly 3,000 tarantulas out of Peru stuffed in socks. Plus: the Vincent Thomas Bridge closes for 16 months, and the 91 drops to three lanes for a weekend. 

6:05 — Santa Ana winds bring a Red Flag Warning on Saturday, Nov. 7 to the Santa Clarita Valley, the Santa Monica and Santa Susana mountains, and the western San Gabriels. Power shutoffs are possible, which is why a generator matters. LA County Fire has pre-positioned crews, and Topanga Canyon Boulevard is residents-only between Mulholland and PCH. On the coast, morning king tides above 7 feet raise the risk of coastal flooding. 

6:20 — Peru arrested two Germans and a Polish man trying to check suitcases full of tarantulas, hidden in dozens of socks, onto flights to Europe. A group of tarantulas is called a “cluster.” Morgan Fairchild, 76, the soap star who played Chandler Bing’s mom on Friends, joined OnlyFans and says her content is “not that kind.” That leads into Netflix’s three-part docuseries The One About Matthew Perry. Plus, a nude-in-the-sky story. 

6:35 — For 55 hours, eastbound 91 shrinks to three lanes between the 241 and Green River Road near Corona. Two of the open lanes are toll lanes, and they’re free for everyone during the closure. Caltrans is replacing 82-foot culvert segments so wildlife can cross under the freeway. 

6:50 — The Vincent Thomas Bridge between San Pedro and Terminal Island closed at 12:01 a.m. Nov. 7 for a 16-month, $752.8 million deck replacement. It’s expected to reopen in early 2028.

3rd Annual KFI ThanksGrilling! 28022 La Paz, Laguna Niguel 

He will also join us out at Morongo! Wouldn't be great if Nythia Ramen turned L.A. around. Our news anchor Eileen Gonzalex was returning from concert at Hollywood Bowl walking down Highland and tripped over a crack in the sidewalk and broke her ankle. Will she sue? Major sidewalk issues across L.A.- Kardashian Concrete could fix the potholes. 

7:20 — Walmart had Butterball for 84 cents. 10lbs – Conway gave his wife a test Turkey, wife made the best gravy ever. Thanksgiving is a very brown meal. How does Conway order and judge restaurants nowadays? "I don't want to risk it" You want to go with what you know. Ride the white horse! Always a hot blonde offering. 

7:35 — 97-year-old died at his birthday party. Don't like the "he went out doing what he loved" like John Denver – he had a homemade plane and the switch to open the reserve tank was too far and he couldn't reach. Everyone's problem is compared to others. Free electricity, a proposed Gov elect. Becerra proposal. The Power Hour.   

7:50 — Narrowing the EB 91 through Corona and closing Vincent Thomas Bridge for 16 months. We forgot how to build it. Disneyland was built in one year. Santa Monica Pier sign will take 12 months to fix and upgrade. And the LAX people mover delayed until 2027, 4 years behind schedul

Radio signals keep traveling into space long after the transmitters go dark. Elon Musk says Tesla will wind down Cybertruck production at its Texas plant around mid-2027 to make room for the Cybercab robotaxi. 

8:20 — Louise’s Trattoria, the last remaining location of a chain that started in Santa Monica in 1978, closes its Larchmont Village restaurant on Nov. 25. The Larchmont spot opened in 1988, and Layla Bagels is taking over the space. 

8:35 — NFL handicapper Sammy Long brings his Week 9 picks: Packers vs. Patriots, Bengals vs. Falcons in Madrid, Giants vs. Eagles, Buccaneers vs. Bears, and Bills vs. Vikings. 

8:50 — The mayor’s race map splits the city east vs. west. Nithya Raman ran strongest in neighborhoods like Echo Park, East Hollywood, and Boyle Heights. Karen Bass won Pacific Palisades by a wide margin, months after the fire-ravaged neighborhood voted against her in the primary. Plus, the Rams expect Myles Garrett back on Sunday at Washington after seven games out with a knee injury.

Hour 4 (11.06) Disneyland was built in about a year. LAX’s people mover was promised for 2023 and slipped to 2027. Plus: 3,000 tarantulas stuffed in socks, and an 84-cent-a-pound turkey. 

9:05 — Peru arrested two Germans and a Polish man trying to check suitcases full of tarantulas, hidden in dozens of socks, onto flights to Europe. A group of tarantulas is called a “cluster.” Morgan Fairchild, 76, the soap star who played Chandler Bing’s mom on Friends, joined OnlyFans and says her content is “not that kind.” That leads into Netflix’s three-part docuseries The One About Matthew Perry. Plus, a nude-in-the-sky story. 

9:20 — For 55 hours, eastbound 91 shrinks to three lanes between the 241 and Green River Road near Corona. Two of the open lanes are toll lanes, and they’re free for everyone during the closure. Caltrans is replacing 82-foot culvert segments so wildlife can cross under the freeway. 

9:35 — Walmart has frozen turkeys at 84 cents a pound, and Butterball is 97 cents. Conway brought home a test turkey, and his wife turned it into the best gravy he’s ever had. Why Thanksgiving is the brownest meal of the year, and how Conway orders and judges' restaurants now. 

9:50 — The 91 is narrowed through Corona, and the Vincent Thomas Bridge is closed for 16 months. Has LA forgotten how to build? Disneyland went from groundbreaking to opening day in about a year. The Santa Monica Pier sign, up since 1941, came down in October for restoration in Las Vegas and isn’t due back until late 2027. The $3.3 billion LAX People Mover was supposed to open in 2023.

Hour 1 (11.04) KTLA’s Andy Riesmeyer is filling in for Timmy C tonight while the city works through its post-Election Day hangover and the votes are tallied. Results will get a full look as the night goes on. First up: A round of impressions — and impressions of impressions. Andy’s superstition is that if a newsroom or radio station is too nice, the show suffers, so the general scrappiness around here is a good sign. KFI is no place for germaphobes, except Tim. Andy just got back from a little vacation in San Francisco and was shocked how clean it’s become in the two years since Daniel Lurie was elected. Whoever ends up mayor of LA — Karen Bass or Nithya Raman — needs to take a page from San Francisco’s book.  

Breaking sad news: Longtime ABC and CBS anchor Harold Greene has died at 82. He was the inspiration for “Anchorman.”  

Andy admits he loves collecting and restoring old cars; he’s selling one on an auction site with no reserve and is nervous nobody bids or they lowball him.  

Prop 38 didn’t get much attention until a post on X went viral. The measure would put about $9 billion into immunization clinical studies, with roughly $4.6 billion going to a nonprofit run by three people, one of whom is billionaire spinal surgeon Gary K. Michelson, who put the prop on the ballot. He spent more than $70 million of his own money to get it there.  

The crew then debates the importance of emo princes Jimmy Eat World, who play the Hollywood Bowl this weekend. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 2 (11.04) Is Jimmy Eat World better than OK Go? The crew’s mostly team Jimmy, though Crozier’s not buying it. They also weigh in on Blink-182 and Green Day while noting pop punk is having a moment. Andy plays some listener TalkBacks and does more impersonations. Everyone agrees Nikki’s got the best voice in the building.  

How is the European freezer hack not bigger news? Hackers remotely cranked supermarket fridges and freezers across at least ten countries — Ireland, Estonia, Sweden, Belgium, the Netherlands, Finland, Germany, and more — and spoiled millions of euros in food. It follows a bigger hit on roughly 700 French stores last month. Experts say it looks Russian-linked, US military commissaries in Europe may have been targeted, and French blood banks got hit too.  

In Tennessee, vintage guitars worth thousands were stolen in Chattanooga and turned up at Carter Vintage Guitars when someone tried to sell them. Staff got suspicious, called the cops, and one suspect using the fake name Nico Simpson was nabbed after leaving the instruments to be authenticated. In West Hollywood, people in polycules and other multi-partner setups can now register as a government-recognized domestic partnership as of today, though not at the same level as marriage. And in Myrtle Beach, a cop pulled a gun on another officer after someone heated fish in the work microwave. The crime was lunch.

Hour 3 (11.04) LAPD released audio of one of its helicopters narrowly avoiding a collision with a military chopper over Echo Park earlier this week, with the officers involved losing their cool. Let’s have a listen to those not-so-friendly skies. Helicopters are incredibly expensive, and they’re the biggest line item at most TV stations.  

Next up is Solo 2 Solo: Andy plays an isolated guitar solo from a famous rock song and the caller has to name the song, the artist and the guitarist. The first one may or may not be from a band whose name rhymes with Strolling Bones. Andy keeps the guitar-solo game going while getting nostalgic as he heads toward 40 — he even got the old band back together. Sounds like early-onset midlife crisis. Earlier today at KTLA he interviewed “Star Trek” actor William Riker, who’s doing a pancreatic cancer fundraiser.  

Does Ryan Seacrest still have his own wing at iHeartMedia HQ? Word is he doesn’t come in the building anymore because he doesn’t like running into the riffraff — meaning us. And now it’s The Foosh’s turn to try to stump DJ Riesmeyer with a solo of his own. Hint: the band is considered super cringe and comes from Canada. No, it’s not Sum 41. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 4 (11.04) Andy Riesmeyer is dealing with a proverbial post-Election Day hangover. First up: A round of Solo 2 Solo, and rock’n’roll chitchat — and impressions of impressions. It’s an impression inception. 

Hackers cranked supermarket freezers across at least ten European countries up to 50-plus degrees Celsius, spoiling millions of euros in food. It follows a bigger hit on roughly 700 French stores last month. Experts say it looks Russian-linked, US military commissaries in Europe may have been targeted, and French blood banks got hit, too.  

Andy also recalls the time a bandmate stole someone’s girlfriend and got his guitar stolen in return. It turned up on Craigslist, a sting failed, but a MySpace threat worked — the guitar showed up in the dead of night.

Hour 1 (11.02) Happy belated Halloween with Timmy and Mark! Mark barely got any trick-or-treaters at his mansion, but Tim had hundreds show up in Burbank — thousands of kids out on Saturday and he didn’t run over a single one. His snagged a 10-pound Walmart turkey and his wife made the best gravy known to man. Single ladies, Tim’s advice is simple: Don’t brag that you can’t cook or the guys will sprint the other way.  

Daylight saving ended and it’s darker earlier — the lads like it. Tim’s a night owl and digs the night-owl crowd. No “Conway Show” on election night, but he’s been invited to parties for Karen Bass and AG candidate Michael Gates. Both were recent guests, so that doesn’t bode well given Tim’s track record. \ 

Tim and Mark are talking the horrific Learjet crash in West Palm Beach: The plane was doing about 1,200 miles an hour when it exploded into a mobile home park, killing everyone onboard including seven passengers and two crew. It was headed for the Bahamas, piloted by a 20-year-old woman with a co-pilot who had tens of thousands of hours.  

Tim’s annual Morongo birthday party is Saturday, November 14 upstairs in the Drum Room — a month after his real birthday. You’re all invited; he’ll be re-gifting stuff including a flatscreen. DM him on Instagram @conwayshow for an invite.

Hour 2 (11.02) Burbank Halloween was cold, rainy, and foggy — Tim loved it. Mosquitoes are still out, so a Chinese startup built an AI laser that zaps their wings so they crash and die. Mark’s the hilltop Halloween grinch with no candy and no decorations; Tim puts his up then yanks the skeletons and pumpkins down by noon 

Tim’s daughter still hasn’t touched her ballot, so he threatened to fill it out and send it himself — Mark confirmed that’s illegal. Mark the Democrat is fine with California’s slow vote count.  

Lions linebacker Jack Campbell is still in the hospital after a brutal neck injury that left him facedown and motionless.  

McDonald’s is doing a pop-up fine-dining thing with its own menu. A new study links energy drinks to cardiac arrest 11 times more often in young people; Tim remembers one that had him staring at the ceiling for two days after a long drive.  

Martha Stewart apologized twice for her deleted homeless-person Halloween costume. Crew guesses on her net worth; Mark got closest at about $400 million. She said it was to highlight homelessness. Right.  

And insurers love the new Ting sensor, a plug-in that flags flood and fire risks at home. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 3 (11.02) Christmas is coming and The Grove is already getting festive. The live 100-foot Christmas tree goes up November 16 for the 25th anniversary of the tradition, followed by a month of faux snow. The lads are also looking at the LA and California candidates on the eve of Election Day.  

El Niño is on the way — a new UC Davis study flags San Luis Obispo, Pismo Beach, Moss Landing, and Humboldt Bay as some of the West Coast spots most vulnerable to damage and infrastructure problems.  

There’s tension in the ESPN booth between Troy Aikman and Joe Buck; industry guy Mark has the story. Gov. Newsom wants to make California more competitive for film and TV and is pushing to expand the Hollywood tax credit to $1 billion through 2040. If it passes, productions and jobs should return, though filming in LA is still struggling.  

Augustine Wine Bar in Sherman Oaks is closing after 12 years because the economy is too tough. People whose homes were damaged in the Norte Fire in San Clemente and San Juan Capistrano are now fighting their insurance companies. A lot of them say they would have been better off if the houses had just burned down. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 4 (11.02) Timmy’s convinced any candidate he has on the show or endorses is doomed. Both he and Mark are fine paying for good public servants — cops, teachers, bomb squad.  

They’re still stunned by the Learjet that broke up over West Palm Beach and slammed into a mobile home park. It happened so fast there was almost no room to recover; Mark notes how unforgiving private jets are when anything goes wrong, and Tim calls it a brutal reminder that even fancy planes can come down hard.  

Burbank Halloween was cold, rainy, and foggy — basically Pacific Northwest cosplay and Tim loved it. Mosquitoes are still around, so a Chinese startup built an AI laser that shoots their wings off so they drop and die. Mark remains the hilltop grinch with no decorations or candy; Tim puts his up then clears the skeletons and pumpkins by noon. One guy dressed as Michael Myers was staring down kids until the cops had a word.  

Martha Stewart is doing damage control after her deleted homeless-person Halloween costume — she’s already apologized twice. Crew guesses on her net worth; Mark got closest at about $400 million. She said it was to highlight homelessness. Right.  

Insurers love the new Ting sensor, a plug-in that flags flood and fire risks before they become claims.

Hour 1 (10.30) Joe Buck signed a reported $108 million. Troy Aikman has no offer, and it blew up in the booth at SoFi. Plus, Selma Blair’s first apology since her Delta arrest. 

6:05 It’s Halloween weekend. The West Hollywood Halloween Carnaval takes over Santa Monica Boulevard from Doheny to La Cienega, free, 6 to 11 p.m. Saturday, and The Abbey is throwing its own party. Over in Burbank, whole neighborhoods turn their homes into full haunted houses. 

6:20 Will the rain wash out trick-or-treating in Riverside? More people seem to be decorating Halloween than ever. And what did you dress up as when you were a kid? 

6:35 Kids are more than twice as likely to be hit and killed by a car on Halloween as on any other day, and kids ages 4 to 8 face the biggest jump in risk. Then Joe Buck and Troy Aikman, partners for 25 years, reportedly argued about their ESPN contracts before Monday Night Football at SoFi. 

6:50 Jarret Stoll may be the luckiest man in hockey: two Stanley Cups with the Kings, a job on LA Kings Live, and a marriage to Erin Andrews. Plus, Selma Blair speaks on video for the first time since her arrest on a flight from LA to New York: “I take this very seriously.”

Hour 2 (10.30) Angel City FC CEO Amy Taylor on building LA’s women’s soccer powerhouse. Plus, club owner Bob Iger’s $12.5B Lakers deal, and the “forever cruise” that ran out of money. 

7:05 Amy Taylor joins us. She took over as CEO of Angel City FC this summer after running Zevia and spending more than 20 years at Red Bull, where she rose to President and Chief Marketing Officer for North America. She’s been named a WISE Inspirational Woman of the Year, and she talks about where women’s sports go from here. 

7:20 In-N-Out CEO Lynsi Snyder hints that more states are on the way as the chain pushes east from Texas. Plus, the “cruise for life” that stranded about 200 residents in Cambodia when its operator ran out of money. 

7:35 What was Halloween like when you were a kid? Decorating, and staying out with friends until the candy ran out. North Korean hackers are stealing crypto faster than investigators can track it. And the Lakers are being sold for the second time in about a year, to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger, at a record $12.5 billion. 

7:50 An escape artist called Houdini II hangs upside down in a straitjacket from a crane about nine stories above Hollywood’s Magic Castle, with no airbag below, to mark 100 years since Harry Houdini’s death on Halloween 1926.

8:05 The LAX Automated People Mover, a $3.3 billion project, slips again. Now the target is February 2027. Waymo keeps growing across LA County, but this week’s high tides showed its limits when a robotaxi wouldn’t drive through a few inches of water. The Foosh drives Uber and chases bonuses like six rides in a row. He’s working Halloween, and he tells us whether he’s worried about Waymo taking his job. 

8:20 Happy birthday to Woody from The Woody Show on ALT 98.7. Then Chris Nowinski, co-founder and CEO of the Concussion & CTE Foundation, is on a new Boston University study.

Hour 2 (10.29) What really killed Houdini? A hundred years later, auctioneer Gabe Fajuri weighs the famous punch, the ruptured appendix and a surgeon’s cover-up theory, ahead of his centennial auction at the Magic Castle. 

7:05 Gabe Fajuri, president of Potter & Potter Auctions, on “Houdini Returns: The Centennial Auction.” It’s 100 rare items from Kevin Connolly’s collection, many of them owned by Houdini himself, and they go up for sale at the Magic Castle in Hollywood on Oct. 31, the 100th anniversary of his death. 

7:20 Was it the punch to the stomach? A ruptured appendix? Fajuri on how Houdini really died, and on a new book by a surgeon, Houdini: The Man Who Died Twice, that argues the official story is wrong. 

7:35 Cheyenne Jackson (30 Rock, Glee) started the “One Job Away” campaign on Instagram to spotlight actors who are close to losing their SAG-AFTRA health insurance.

Hour 4 (10.29) Mayor Karen Bass calls in after wiping out Nithya Raman’s 11-point lead. They’re now tied at 40%. Plus, 100 years after his death, what really killed Houdini? 

9:05 Mayor Karen Bass calls in. The new Berkeley IGS/LA Times poll has her and Councilmember Nithya Raman at 40% each, with 19% undecided. In September Raman led 39% to 28%. Plus, what the mayor orders at In-N-Out.

9:50 Was it the punch to the stomach? A ruptured appendix? Fajuri weighs in on how Houdini really died, and on a new book by a surgeon, Houdini: The Man Who Died Twice, that argues the official story is wrong.

Hour 1 (10.28)   6:05: Tonight on “The Conway Show,” Timmy kicks it all off by talking about the lawsuit accusing a popular Los Angeles animal rescue of “puppy laundering.” It’s called Wagmor Pets and it’s in the San Fernando Valley. Celebrity-favored Wagmor owner denies laundering these puppies. The City of Los Angeles has filed a lawsuit against the animal rescue organization and its owner Melissa Bacelar. That’s ruff, man. 

6:20: To more on the puppy laundering insanity in Studio City, the woman, Bacelar, allegedly bought dogs from puppy mills and pawned them off as rescue pups to wealthy women looking for a canine companion. The dead giveaway? They were designer pooches, with not a pit bull or mutt in sight. Were these women in denial? Some of them were forking out well over $1,000 for these so-called rescues. 

6:35: While Southern California continues to experience coastal flooding, inland LA is not quite free from flooding either. There’s a sinkhole impacting traffic in Hollywood due to yet another watermain break. And it’s right on Sunset Boulevard, on the corner where the Chick-Fil-A is. Those party girls must be soggy! When the Big One hits, this city is gonna be a lake. 

6:50: As the holidays approach, you think you’re set for a sweet deal on airfare? Bad news. If flying a discount airline like Frontier, it’ll cost you a heck of a lot more, with fares jumping a whopping 71% due to rising fuel costs. At least you’ll still get the midair flight fights between the other cheapo travelers. It now costs close to $150 per pet to fly the dog-friendly airline. After a nightmare experience traveling with his dog Ernie and a serious case of green apple splatters, Tim vowed never to fly with another dog. Speaking of Ernies, Ernie Johnson is retiring from “Inside the NBA.”

Hour 2 (10.28) 7:05 — Timmy wasn’t into politics when he was growing up, and even now he’s not so into it and doesn’t think it enriches your life. He thinks it makes people judgy and angry. However, there is a very important race for mayor of LA between Mayor Karen Bass and Nitha Raman. Presently it’s a tie of 40% each among unlikely voters, with around 19% undecided. Raman has lost 11 percentage points since September, which isn’t good news for the DSA candidate. Although, they’re both DSA candidates, which could be bad news for Angelenos. The LAPD is not happy about this — Raman wants the popular LA police Chief Jim McDonnell fired! 

7:20 — Remember that new foldable iPhone Duo that people queued for 30 hours on the street to get their dirty mitts on? Those peeps are nuts, right? And now? We’ve got thousands of fans lining up overnight at bookstores globally for the highly anticipated midnight release of “A Court of Splintered Harmony” the latest in the fantasy romance series by Sarah J. Mass. There were more than 700 midnight release parties nationwide. Ladies love that lusty literature! The Planters NUTmobile is hiring three drivers — that’s nutty! 

7:35 — West Hollywood moves forward with plans for the city's tallest building, 1000 La Brea Tower. Some people are for it, while others? Not so much. It’s happening on the site of the old Cemex Hollywood Concrete Plant on North La Brea and will have 514 apartments and 34 stories. There’ll be a percentage of affordable housing there, as well as retail and restaurants on the lower levels. More than 80% of WeHo residents are renters, and Timmy is all for this new skyscraper. Meanwhile, in fancy Tarzana, two men have been arrested related to a kidnapping. 

7:50 — A knife attack at Wendy’s? Crime can happen anywhere, even in a Northridge fast-food restaurant.  A man was caught on camera arguing with employees before approaching a customer who was enjoying his burger with his lady. The customer then pulled a knife in self-defense. Do you want fries with that? Meanwhile, Halloween weather is going to be spooky, with coastal flood warnings and storms set to rain on the literal parade. It’s going to be misty, rainy, and cold — just like we’re in the Midwest. Wonder if they make slutty waterproof capes at Spirit Halloween.

Hour 3 (10.28) 8:05: We often hear stories about people, particularly retirees, selling their homes, furniture, vehicles — you name it — to live onboard a cruise ship for years. The residential cruise ship Villa Vie Odyssey suspended its round-the-world four-year voyage and stranded over 200 passengers in Cambodia after soaring fuel costs. The cruise ship is now on temporary layup in port, having set sail from Belfast two years ago. Permanent residences start at $100,000, and go up to more than $400,000, plus monthly fees for life onboard. But it hasn’t exactly been smooth sailing and there’s no guarantee the voyage will ever resume. 

8:20: Breaking news: The Milwaukee Brewers have just won the World Series! Is it their first championship win? Timmy thinks so! The Los Angeles Summer Olympics 2028 new slogan has been revealed: Stars align. That it? Where’s the rest of it? It reflects the coming together of athletes and fans from all over the world — and some other stuff. Where can you find your best deals for Thanksgiving? At Walmart, you can buy a 10-pound turkey for 84 cents a pound — that’s less than $9. Meanwhile, at Target you can do the entire Thanksgiving spread for six people for just $30. Bundling is the trick. At Walmart, you can feed 10 people for $3.50 a person. You can get a free turkey at ShopRite if you spend a certain amount at the supermarket chain. 

8:35: With the MLB now over for the year, sports lovers still have the NFL, NHL and NBA to look forward to. That sentence was a nightmare for dyslexics. The cops pulled over a couple to prank them on their wedding night as they were headed for their honeymoon while they were still in their tux (the groom) and the wedding gown (the bride). A guy decided to swallow $760,000 in diamond earrings rather than give them up after snatching them from Tiffany’s in Orlando. He’s been forced to stay in hospital until he evacuates the baubles. 

8:50: High tide has never been higher in parts of SoCal and Orange County thanks to this crazy El Nino weather bringing weird waves and coastal flooding. We’re talking shin deep water in Newport and on the Pacific Coast Highway. The community is rallying and helping each other out with support and sandbags. The flooding is predicted to subside tomorrow and won’t return ’til Thanksgiving. Some restaurants and stores are doing it tough with soggy carpet and waterlogged floorboards.

Hour 4 (10.28) 9:05: Timmy’s starting the night with a real dog of a story. The City of LA just sued a Valley animal rescue called Wagmor Pets and its owner Melissa Bacelar, accusing them of “puppy laundering.” The claim is that celebrity-favorite Wagmor was moving pooches through the system in a way that wasn’t quite as pure as the marketing. Bacelar’s denying every bit of it. That’s ruff. 

9:20: The Wagmor story gets even shaggier. The lawsuit claims Bacelar was buying dogs straight from puppy mills and then flipping them as feel-good rescues to wealthy women hunting for the perfect companion. The tell? Every single one was a designer purebred — not a pit bull, not a mutt, not a single scruffy face in the bunch. Were these buyers in full denial mode? Some of them happily dropped well over a thousand bucks for the privilege of “rescuing” a Frenchie or a doodle. 

9:35: Think you’ve got a cheap holiday flight locked in? Think again. Discount carriers like Frontier are watching fares jump a brutal 71 percent thanks to fuel costs. The silver lining? You still get the classic midair arguments between fellow bargain hunters. Pet fees on the dog-friendly airline are now pushing $150 a head. After one disastrous trip with Ernie that ended in green-apple splatters, Tim swore off flying with dogs forever. Speaking of Ernies, Ernie Johnson is hanging it up at “Inside the NBA.” 

9:50: West Hollywood moves forward with plans to construct the city's tallest building, 1000 La Brea Tower. Some locals love it, while others are up in arms? As for Conway? He says bring on the construction! Helicopters hovered over upscale Valley nabe Tarzana yesterday, warning locals to make themselves scarce. Why?  They were coming for two men who were nabbed in relation to a kidnapping. It happens to be Timmy’s old stomping ground and brings to his mind the memory of a person who got their wiener and testicles bitten off by a feisty German Shepherd after an attempted home robbery.

They say shoppers were charged more at the register than the shelf or ad price from 2019 through March 2026, which drew nearly 30,000 complaints. Also: the eat-before-you-drink rule for skipping the hangover, the side-of-sour-cream story, and flip-flops versus Nauti USA sandals. 

6:50: Unusually high tides pushed seawater onto the International Boardwalk at the Redondo Beach pier and into nearby businesses. Tides along the LA County coast ran 1 to 1.5 feet above predictions, and the San Pedro gauge set a new record of 8.02 feet.

Hour 2 (10.27)  7:05 — LAX’s embattled ‘People Mover’ malfunctions with massive arc flash during routine test of train. LADWP customers sound off... 

7:20 — LADWP customers are expressing severe outrage over skyrocketing utility bills that have doubled, tripled, or surged into the thousands of dollars following recent Southern California heatwaves.

The San Pedro tide gauge set a new record of 8.02 feet, beating a mark from 2005, and Long Beach’s Peninsula neighborhood is bracing for more.

8:35: The LA City Council voted 13-1 to put up to 50 enforcement cameras on DASH buses. Fines are $293 for blocking bus lanes and stops, with warnings only for the first 60 days. And Glendale Water & Power wants a nearly 50% rate hike to fix aging pipes, while residents gather protest signatures to block it. 

8:50: The Milwaukee Brewers swept the Dodgers out of the NLCS and ended the 3-peat bid. Without a World Series in LA, the bars, restaurants and vendors that count on October baseball lose out.

Hour 4 (10.27) LAX’s $3.34 billion People Mover erupted in an arc flash during a test run, and it was supposed to open in 2023. Plus: Petros Papadakis on kids’ e-bike batteries blowing up in the garage. 

9:05: Commerce Casino manager David Mosikian on how he and Tim met 29 years ago, and whether Conway was an angry drunk back then. He also lives near the flooded area and tells us what he’s seeing. 

9:20: Saltwater corrodes your car fast and can short out an EV’s battery pack. Fire officials have warned that flooded EVs can catch fire days or weeks later, so get yours inspected as soon as possible if it went through these high tides. Then Petros Papadakis warns parents about kids’ e-bike batteries blowing up in the garage. 

9:35: The FTC and 20 states, California, sued Dollar General in federal court in Tennessee. They say shoppers were charged more at the register than the shelf or ad price from 2019 through March 2026, which drew nearly 30,000 complaints.

Hour 1 (10.26)  Mark’s cranky cankle is back in the house as he and Timmy dig into the coastal flooding slamming LA and Orange County — Huntington, Newport, the whole soggy mess. Locals are stressed, shops are closed, and the high tides are swishing ocean water where the sun usually shines.  

Then it’s on to the restaurant business, which Timmy says is brutal right now: His favorite Burbank barbecue joint was out of half the menu, regulations are everywhere, and more than 7,500 restaurants across the US shut down in the first half of 2026. On a brighter note, Woody from “The Woody Show” called Timmy’s Instagram a “solid follow,” especially for San Fernando Valley and Burbank content. Atta boy. And if you need extra cash this holiday season, Amazon, UPS, Dick’s, Foot Locker, and Michaels are all hiring thousands, with some companies apparently filling jobs in about seven minutes. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 2 (10.26)  Timmy’s latest hot take is that the dogs at the dog park are living their best life — he watched them take dumps, hump each other, and sniff butts today. He and his wife are ready for a new dog six months after losing Ernie, so they checked out the orphans at the East Valley Animal Shelter over the weekend. Once Mark’s cranky cankle heals, the self-proclaimed cat daddy is getting a kitten.  

Meanwhile, LADWP is blaming those massive utility bills on the heat and people blasting the AC nonstop. Apple’s $2,000 iPhone Duo is already cracking its foldable screens, and Paramount Skydance is rolling out a voluntary buyout as CEO David Ellison looks for hands in the air.  

A United flight from Vegas to New Jersey got quietly turned around after a flight attendant spotted a passenger’s message about hijacking the plane — authorities locked it down and made a 75-mile turn back so nobody onboard would notice.  

Danny Trejo’s Hollywood donut shop is closing this week but he says another spot is coming. Karen Bass’s office is touting a 47% drop in crime. And LAX is getting a very LA upgrade with a Kogi BBQ spot in Terminal 1 that’ll look like a food truck — perfect for when your flight inevitably gets canceled.

Hour 3 (10.26) Michael Gates, the former Huntington Beach city attorney who could be California’s next attorney general, is in the studio with Mark and Tim talking about his campaign. California ranks as the second most dangerous state under current AG Rob Bonta, and Gates says he’ll fix that. Head to Gates4ag.com to learn more.  

On the Skydance lawsuit Bonta was involved in, Paramount was ready to leave the state and gave the AG one chance to walk it back — according to Gates, Bonta was nearly in tears to get the settlement because of the political heat.  

With Halloween approaching, hospitals see a surge in kids getting hit by cars while trick-or-treating, so parents should put them in high-visibility vests and reflective gear. As of today, multiple speed cameras are live around LA, with plans to ramp up to 120 to catch speeders with ever-rising fines.  

There’s a 40 to 50% chance of rain this Halloween, and the clocks go back for an extra hour of moist sleep. Ding-dong. Timmy’s noticed a surplus of Halloween candy at Target and Costco that needs to move fast — scary-sweet sales are down 7 percent. His favorite bar is a Snickers; Mark’s is a KitKat. Halloween falls on Saturday this year, so the weather chat is on. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 4 (10.26)  The restaurant business is getting hammered — more than 7,500 places across the US closed in the first half of 2026 thanks to skyrocketing costs and weaker sales, and even foodie cities like New Orleans are feeling. On a lighter note, the crew over at The Woody Show on ALT 98.7 gave Timmy a shout-out and called his Instagram a “solid follow,” especially for Burbank and Valley content — atta boy.  

Holiday hiring is wide open if you need extra cash: Amazon’s bringing on more than 300,000 temporary workers, UPS wants around 100,000, and Dick’s, Foot Locker and Michaels are each staffing up by the thousands.  

Mark’s still laughing about how his new wife Courtney locked him down early on by cooking killer vegan meals every night — once they moved in together, that cooking stopped — and those mysterious empty restaurant takeout containers also disappeared.  

A United flight out of Vegas got quietly turned around after a flight attendant spotted a passenger’s message about hijacking the plane; authorities locked it down and ordered a 75-mile turn back so nobody onboard would notice. Danny Trejo’s longtime Hollywood donut shop is closing this week (he says another location is coming), and Timmy still thinks Trejo hasn’t been the same since that Fourth of July parade dust-up. And Mayor Karen Bass’s office is pointing to a 47% drop in crime under her watch.

8:05 Crumbl Cookies has closed dozens of locations this year as sales slide. Meanwhile, Chunk-A-Dunk is open in Claremont with half-pound stuffed cookies. Dirty sodas are the craze: soda mixed with flavored syrup, a splash of cream and often fresh citrus, a trend that started in Utah at shops like Swig. And it’s been 100 years since Harry Houdini died on Halloween 1926. 

8:20 A World Series check-in as the Brewers faces the Rays, Milwaukee’s first trip since 1982, with a viral new theme song. Plus, Milwaukee legend Big Red, and a weather cell rolls through Orange County with lightning, thunder and rain.

8:50 Halloween is one week away. Lingering showers stay in the forecast for the weekend, with a strong cell near Carlsbad and Oceanside and heavy rain in Santa Ynez and Lake Arrowhead. The Ontario Sports Empire, a 190-acre sports complex billed as the largest of its kind west of the Rockies, holds its grand opening Saturday, Oct. 24. And Metrolink suspends Orange County Line service between Laguna Niguel/Mission Viejo and Oceanside Monday through Friday, Oct. 26–30, because of extreme high tides.

7:05 First the Norte Fire, now this. A violent storm cell tore through San Clemente, snapping a palm and uprooting trees near the municipal golf course.

And Anthropic’s draft IPO filing shows an $80.7 billion first-half loss, mostly on paper. Would you buy stock in a company that’s losing money? 

8:50 Travel blogger Tomiko Harvey refused to trade her aisle seat for a middle seat on a 10-hour flight so a woman could sit next to her husband. She says the woman cried for three hours. Would you swap? Dolly Parton celebration from across the entertainment industry on CMA.

9:05 Two men and a woman were pulled from the rain-swollen Pacoima Wash in North Hills Thursday morning as one of the season’s first big storms-soaked Southern California. LAFD crews used a helicopter hoist and a ladder truck to reach them..  

9:20 How do you keep going when life gets hard? Susan Fries of Ecola Termite & Pest Control shares the mindset that gets her through. Plus: when did your kid get their first phone? 

9:35 The Norte Fire tore through San Clemente and San Juan Capistrano last Friday. Mark McNabb had just remodeled, adding a fire-resistant roof and a pool pump to fight flames. He and his wife had 20 minutes to grab their valuables and go, and OCFA’s Steve Concialdi says staying could have cost him his life. 

9:50 Rapper Foenem’s viral Brewers track became Milwaukee’s clubhouse anthem during its four-game NLCS sweep of the Dodgers, a year after L.A. swept them. How does it stack up against the Dodgers’ theme songs as the Brewers head into the World Series against Tampa Bay?

Hour 1 (10.21) 6:05 — Ding-dong with this rain! It's putting Timmy in a great mood — it is sensational when it rains! Especially in the filthy San Fernando Valley where Tim the Valley-dweller has always... dwelled. Meanwhile, San Clemente is dealing with burn scars and no vegetation following the recent Norte Fire earlier this week, with rains bringing the threat of mudslides. 

6:20 — Tim went to Starbucks today, and the only thing people were talking about was the rain. It's big news in Southern California! He likes it when something makes people remove their noses from their phones. People who live in South Orange County listen to KFI and these are the people impacted by the Norte Fire, king tides and the rain. A local emergency has been declared down there. We're getting attacked on all fronts! Meanwhile, in Laguna Beach, they're doing emergency repairs on a massive crack on the PCH, near to where they have Pageant of the Masters. 

6:35 — In Newport Beach they're preparing for rain and another potentially dangerous surf situation, with emergency alerts activated due to flooding fears. In Long Beach, the peninsula people are still bracing for the worst as a storm approaches. Those homes used to have 100 yards of sand, carparks, and volleyball courts between them and the Pacific Ocean. Not anymore, with those waves practically in their living rooms. Everyone who lives near the ocean is friendly with their neighbors. In Burbank where Timmy lives? Not so much. 

6:50 — With burn areas following SoCal wildfires, Oxnard has issued a flashflood warning in the Malibu and Topanga areas. Rain over an inch forecast throughout the night in areas including the Valley, Agoura Hills and Orange County. Driving in SoCal when it's raining is very dangerous. We could listen to Dallas Raines all night long.

Hour 2 (10.21) 7:05 — What's up with Conway's massive flannel shirt today? It's a 3X Tall! He'll never tell us the real reason why, but his wife Jen sure will. They were up north and went to Fred Meyer for the Carhartt sale. She saw the shirt on the rack and thought it'd be perfect for The Foosh. They were up in Oregon, and Timmy was freezing, so he took the gift meant for Foosh and wore it himself. The Foosh weighs 220 pounds. Tim weighs less than 160 pounds. Will the shirt fit Foosh? Let's find out live on air! 

7:20 — If Tim gets 40 more Instagram followers @conwayshow, then he officially hits 105,000 followers, so jump on it, Oxnard! The new trend in households is ditching the plates and silverware and just throwing food on the table. It's called the "dump dinner" and it involves wrapping the dinner table in tinfoil, dumping the pasta, meat or whatever on the table and diving right in. No dishes, no complaints, just fingers and mouths. Have at it, kids. Costco is attracting shoppers seeking dating interactions in real life, and it's a growing trend among college kids.  

7:35 — Dopamine hit for the people who love to shop but don't want to spend the money: There are now fake websites, such as fakehaul.com, where you can hit purchase on things like beauty items, workout gear, jewelry and meals, but without cracking out your credit card, so whatever you order won't ever arrive. It's all for dopamine. Timmy doesn't get it.  

7:50 — You know who's gotta be making a ton of money? Those DIY carwashes. When Tim was a kid, they'd charge $3 tops. And now? Timmy went the other day and it cost him $17! Netflix has laid off1,000 employees, raised its prices and its stock is down. Will new leadership placate investors and reengage viewers?
