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. Sign up or sponsor at urm.org/ote. Thanks for listening to Tim Conway Jr. on KFI!

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. It's being grateful for what you already have instead of keeping a running tally of what you don't. Thanks for listening to Tim Conway Jr. on KFI!

Hour 4 (9.04) Fifteen hundred a week for seventy-five hours behind the wheel, minus a hundred and fifty in gas. That's the top of the Uber ladder — and driverless cars just took the airport runs. 9:05 — Marie's swell reaches Southern California late tonight. Big surf on south-facing beaches and strong rip currents throughout the holiday weekend. 9:20 — Zoox started running driverless robotaxis to and from Harry Reid International in Las Vegas this week, the first fully autonomous service at a US airport, with pickups at both terminals positioned closer to baggage claim than the Uber and Lyft zones. Drivers waiting in the lot had mixed reactions — one full-timer figure it'll take a lot of business; another says there's nothing they can do about it. So, what can you make out there? Six days a week, twelve hours a day, seventy-five hours, about a hundred and fifty in gas, and roughly fifteen hundred at the end of it. Plus, the case for letting riders set their own speed. 9:35 — Neil Saavedra, the Fork Reporter, joins Tim.

Plus the time Conway and Steckler got thrown out of LACMA for breathing on the art. 7:35 — Halloween Horror Nights opened at Universal Studios Hollywood, and this year's run is the longest they've ever done: 42 nights through November 1. Eight haunted houses, six scare zones, the Terror Tram hosted by Art the Clown, and the Purge stunt show. The headliner is Sinners, built out of the second half of Ryan Coogler's film — Club Juke, the vampires, the whole thing. It hit a sixty-minute wait within half an hour of the gates opening. Hellraiser makes its Hollywood debut, and Stranger Things, Killer Klowns and Ozzy Osbourne all have houses. The element of surprise is the whole game. 7:50 — Back in June, during the federal and LAPD operation at MacArthur Park, District Attorney Nathan Hochman made a specific public pledge: Labor Day 2026, middle of the day, he'd be there with his family having a picnic.
