The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (8.12) Not to toot his own trumpet, but tonight’s Timmy show has been an absolute barnburner — potential AG Michael Gates, House Whisperer Dean Sharp, and comic icon Jay Leno all dropping in. Ding-dong! Plus the epic Powerball draw. The $1 billion jackpot numbers are in: 26, 67, 69, 66, 4 and the Powerball is 9. Your odds of winning are about the same as an aircraft carrier landing on your house in the San Fernando Valley. In Fullerton, a massive four-alarm fire forced first responders to battle flames while wearing 100 pounds of gear in this sticky SoCal heatwave. Hollywood was rocked again as Nick Reiner was indicted for the December killings of his parents, filmmaker Rob Reiner and Michele Reiner, with prosecutors alleging he was lying in wait. Remember the tiger-blood era? Timmy digs up that classic Charlie Sheen “Winning” song for a blast from the past. Meanwhile, British racer Andy Green just set a new hydrogen-powered land speed record of 406 mph on Utah’s Bonneville Salt Flats. Atta boy! And in Hemet, a family discovered they’d been unknowingly sharing their home with a secret house guest. Spooky stuff! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 1 (8.4) Big morning, big energy. President Trump touches down at his Rancho Palos Verdes golf course for an RNC fundraiser before jetting to Vegas tonight — Angel Martinez has every road closure you need to survive the commute. Then a public service announcement that might save your bank account: think twice before logging onto that hotel or airport WiFi. Plus, thieves hit Urban Pet in the Fairfax district. Conway floats joining the Democratic Socialists for one reason and one reason only: to cancel Thanksgiving. No stuffing, no small talk, no sitting up straight at a 40-person table while the game's on in the other room. Relatable? Unhinged? You decide. Then the story everyone's talking about — Crystal View in Tujunga. Seven cul-de-sacs. Roughly 100 homes. At least seven break-ins in the past month. One LAPD cruiser assigned at a time. An officer told us this is "typically" a San Fernando Valley problem — so why is it here now? Residents are on edge and want answers. We close it out with Walker Hayes bringing "Fancy Like" to Morongo, and the latest out of Spokane, where 37-year-old Aaron Farinacci was arrested Monday in connection with the Old Trails Fire — the largest of three major fires burning in the area. Traffic. True crime. Turkey-day treason. Let's go.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 4 (8.4) Podcast Description: He's not joining for politics. He's joining for the turkey.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 2 (7.29) Alaska is hands-down the most beautiful state in the union — Timmy says there’s not an ugly inch of it. Internet star Jimothy, the short-spined raccoon from Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood, is still taking over the news cycle, but Timmy’s official advice to nature lovers is simple: stop looking at wildlife. That includes Jackie and Shadow the bald eagles and the legendary bipedal bear Pedals from New Jersey, because it all ends crazy. Another heat advisory is out, with the San Fernando Valley headed for 108 this weekend and Palm Springs climbing toward a brutal 120. Timmy’s solution? Head to Del Mar, where the surf meets the turf. Former Cowboys QB and NFL broadcaster Tony Romo got popped for DUI in Milwaukee — open container, refused the breathalyzer, and was laughing and smiling the whole time. Remember when there used to be a bar called One For the Road? And in the heart of West Hollywood, a pack of loud coyotes has taken over an unfinished luxury condo building after construction ran out of money. They’re making a racket on some of the most expensive real estate in town, and now WeHo has to figure out a non-lethal way to deal with them that doesn’t involve just dumping the problem in Burbank.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 4 (7.13) Teen takeovers: Don’t do it, kids! And if you must, pick a spot where the cops aren’t vigilant — steer clear of Orange County strongholds like Newport Beach and Huntington Beach, because OC law enforcement will call in the cavalry at the first sign of trouble. Head to LA County or the San Fernando Valley instead, where we run wild, and who knows, Timmy might even show up to DJ! Timmy reminisces about his old “Mazda Ashtray” and the clever hack he used to get AAA to tow him to and from Hollywood Hills parties. Knott’s Berry Farm has already tipped off local OC cops about a planned teen takeover at the park. In other news, there were two separate home invasion attempts — one in Porter Ranch and another in Woodland Hills — proving that with the FIFA World Cup wrapping up, LA is happily returning to its regularly scheduled crime programming. And finally, one of Hollywood’s most iconic landmarks is in trouble: Legendary Television City, home to The Price Is Right, The Carol Burnett Show, and decades of TV history, could be headed for sale as owner Hackman Capital Partners struggles with over $350 million in debt amid the production slowdown. Timmy and Crozier are sad about it, but hey — Mayor Karen Bass is on the case, and she never screws anything up, right? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Baywatch icon Erika Eleniak joins Steve Kmetko on Still Here, Hollywood for a raw, honest conversation about fame, body image, and reinvention. Before she became one of the most recognizable faces of 90s television as lifeguard Shauni McClain on Baywatch, Erika stole hearts as the babysitter in Steven Spielberg's E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. In this episode, she opens up about being personally cast by Spielberg at age 12, the real story behind that iconic E.T. kiss scene, and what it was actually like filming Baywatch's famous slow-motion beach runs in freezing January water. Erika also gets candid about her Playboy pictorial and the career obstacles it created, her decision to walk away from Baywatch after just two seasons, working alongside Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey on Under Siege, her ongoing struggle with body image, and how becoming a single mother reshaped everything she thought she knew about resilience, fame, and what she wants next. Whether you grew up watching Baywatch reruns or you're discovering Erika Eleniak's career for the first time, this episode is a candid, unfiltered look behind the red swimsuit and the Hollywood machine.

The Andy Riesmeyer Show Hour 1 (7.8) The ceasefire is over! Trump declares the US deal with Iran finished after the IRGC launched new airstrikes on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. He doesn’t think it’ll escalate to full-scale war, but notes that as part of the original agreement, Iran can no longer charge service fees for ships passing through. Trump also explained why he’s flying the old Air Force One back from Turkey instead of the new one, openly acknowledging “I’m No. 1 on the kill list for Iran.” In Boyle Heights, rats are on the move after the massive cold-storage warehouse fire at Linear Logistics left 85 million pounds of food rotting. The new daylighting laws kick in across LA — no more parking within 20 feet of a crosswalk — and Fryman Canyon in the Santa Monica Mountains is now charging for parking on the San Fernando Valley side. Meanwhile, concerns are growing about a possible cancer cluster in the Orange County neighborhood of Ladera Ranch, drawing comparisons to the elevated cancer rates near the old Santa Susana Field Lab in Simi Valley.

There we were, Glen and I. Littleboxes on a Zoom screen separated us.       Onceor sometimes twice a week. The boxes kept moving, changing our view. Never hada conversation. But admiration for his author's journey and Southern Californialife. Then universal alignment. We chatted on Zoom two weeks ago to getacquainted. I was in awe at Glen's journey. Several times from the heart, Isaid there is a movie to be made about his life. He's wonderfully eloquent,charming, brilliant, worldly, and knowledgeable beyond. Of course, thisinterview was born. Some elements and words now. As a kid, a friend had amimeograph machine (see Animal House). Glen begins writing a newspaper. Marinebiology. Meat cutter. Los Angeles Fire Department paramedic, captain, disasterpreparedness. Manuals for FEMA. Motorcycling the country in 1976. Scuba diving.A brave new world. Glen discussed the Implicate Order (David Bohm). Look it up.Now he's writing futuristic novels. Loved the cover of ‘Tears of a ThousandYears.' He loves Groundhog Day. Me too. Be curious.

He's coming back here for the‘Desperate Endeavor' release. As good as it gets.” Calvin

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 2 (6.23) Tim Conway Jr. tackles the WORLD CUP madness — finally, a DEAD-SIMPLE breakdown of the offside rule that's confused American fans for decades. (Hint: no more cherry-picking!) Plus the bizarre warning going viral: why you should ALWAYS check your toilet between uses… a SNAKE was found inside.

Los Angeles mayoral candidate and Los Angeles City Council member Nithya Raman is acutely aware of what's at stake as local Hollywood production craters — 42,000 jobs lost over two years between 2022 and 2024, shoot days down 50 percent below the five-year average. Many of her constituents in District 4, which stretches from the San Fernando Valley to the Santa Monica Mountains, work in the industry — and her husband, Vali Chandrasekaran, is a longtime writer and producer, with credits on television comedies like Modern Family, 30 Rock and Netflix's The Four Seasons. Last week, Raman came by the Ankler offices for a conversation with Richard Rushfield about her plan to save the industry, as well as her thoughts about how we got here.

Mark Jarel Is Building Everything!Before we get into it — this episode is brought to you by MotoTote. Head to mototote.com/MOTOARCHIVES for 10% off your order.I got invited into his shop in the San Fernando Valley, and within the first five minutes I knew this was going to be a different kind of conversation. The man has vintage flathead Harleys, a 1939 Indian Sport Scout, slot car tracks he's sold for $20,000 a piece, vintage go karts that do 70 miles an hour, a 1949 Crown travel trailer, a custom sports car he's building from a wooden buck — and right in the middle of it all, a Yamaha RD400 that's becoming something I've never quite seen before.Mark is a hobbyist in the truest sense of the word. Not a collector. Not a restorer. A builder. And the way he talks about it — three projects going at a time, bouncing between them when one hits a wall, no TV for 25 years — it hit different. This is a man who figured out a long time ago that building things is the antidote to everything.We talked about how it all started — his parents building their own toys because they couldn't afford to buy them, a 400-pound welder with a visible butt crack charging him $50 to weld a bicycle frame, and the moment Mark decided he was going to be smarter than that guy. He bought a welder, taught himself, and never looked back.The RD400 build is wild. It started as a land speed record bike someone gave him — ugly as sin, but with a solid, never-run 1983 engine inside. Mark stripped it, cut the frame, and built something entirely new around that motor. Part 70s drag bike, part road race sidecar outfit, with a working brake wing (does it help aerodynamically? Probably not. Does it look insane? Absolutely), a nitrous purge system for when he rolls into shows, a sidecar nose made from a vintage go kart and a wheel pod off a 1960 Cessna airplane. He made the tank out of cardboard templates first. He drilled out the rear brake for lightness. Does it really matter? Nope. But it sure looks cool — and that's the whole point.We also got into his racing days at Muroc Dry Lake, a land speed record he still holds, racing a 1965 Ducati GP bike at Willow Springs, and why he stopped racing the day his son was born. His kid ended up building his own motorcycle at 13, taking third at a build-off, and now rides a '65 BSA Lightning. The apple didn't fall far.And then there's the slot car tracks. Nine of them built and sold. One in Florida, one in Iowa, one in Hawaii. Each one a rolling diorama that fits inside an enclosed trailer, with figures, landscapes, a dog about to pee on something, and a pedestrian mooning the track. The man is serious about the details.The thing that stuck with me most was something Mark said near the end — if you can imagine it, we can build it. His son told him that in the middle of an Iron Man movie when he was five years old. They went home and built a helmet. That's the whole philosophy right there.Topics covered in this episode:Building a Yamaha RD400 into a 70s drag/sidecar race bike hybridWhy Mark gravitates toward 45 flathead Harleys and their historyThe WWII connection that made flatheads the most widely produced motorcycle engine in historyVintage go kart racing and holding a land speed record at Muroc Dry LakeBuilding slot car tracks from scratch — and selling them for $20kWhat it means to raise a kid around building thingsVintage travel trailer rallies and the community that keeps showing upWhy three projects at once is the secret to staying saneConnect with Mark: https://www.instagram.com/jarelbuilt/Follow Moto Archives:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheMotorcycleArchivesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/motoarchives/motoarchives.com

LA mayoral hopeful Nithya Raman proposes backyard BBQ ban Los Angeles mayoral hopeful Nithya Raman wanted to ban backyard barbecues for residents during certain high fire danger days across the city. Raman introduced a motion Wednesday directing city officials to examine emergency restrictions on grilling during Red Flag Warning days, when high winds and dry conditions significantly increase wildfire danger across Los Angeles. The proposal specifically asks officials to consider possible limits on backyard barbecues, fire pits and other open flames in residential neighborhoods during those high-risk weather events Councilmember Monica Rodriguez, who represents much of the San Fernando Valley,...

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (5.13) There was a crash today in Santa Clarita when a bus collided with a big ol’ truck on Golden Valley Road leaving a dozen people injured. It’s very hilly out there with windy streets, folks. Thankfully, no-one was injured. Home Depot and Lowe’s are installing license plate readers in their parking lots to combat theft rings. Some people are worried the cameras could be used to track undocumented workers. Despite what Mayor Karen Bass asserts, it would appear crime in the San Fernando Valley is up. Last night there was a home invasion on Bluebell Ave. The thieves got by the home’s high-tech security system. What’s Timmy C’s advice? Best to not indicate that you’re wealthy — cover up those gargoyles and water features. Did you know? Ninety-nine percent of us don’t break into homes or stab people in the neck, et al. But the 1% that does it holds everyone else to ransom. Karen Bass calls policing crime in LA like playing “Whac-A-Mole,” although she can’t pronounce whatever that was. Let's talk about Timmy C’s new Monday-night theme song. And that discrimination PSA we used to play on KFI. Timmy C is still down in the dumps about the demise of Primm, formerly known as State Line, the town you stop at on the way to Las Vegas located on the border of California and Nevada.

In this episode of the RuPaul's Drag Race Recap Show, host Joe Betance is joined by special guest co-host Adam Salandra to break down the design challenge of the season. From point-distribution drama to "demon twinks" and unconventional materials, we dissect everything that happened on the main stage and in the workroom. The Daddy Discourse: Joe and Adam kick things off with a candid (and slightly weird) conversation about fatherhood terminology and how kids navigate having two dads. Point Distribution & Betrayals: The queens head back to the workroom to de-drag and distribute their MVQ points. We discuss Morphine's disappointment and Lucky Stars' decision to snub her in favor of Mystique. Mini Challenge Madness: The girls attempt to put on "chonies" without using their hands. Spoiler: Nobody wins, but it leads to a hilarious story about Joe's "Sisterhood of the Traveling Chonies". Maxi Challenge: Bar Queen Couture: The queens are tasked with creating high-fashion looks from unconventional materials based on queer bar categories like Leather, White Party, and Piano Bar. Runway Review: A'keria C. Davenport stuns in White Party realness. Dawn brings the "demon twink" energy to the Piano Bar. Lucky Stars confuses (and delights) as a pinata in a donut hole. Mystique Summers Madison redeems her Season 2 country past. The Lip Sync Battle: A'keria and Dawn face off to Fergie's "Fergalicious" for the win and a major advantage in the competition. "I thought Dawn was such a demon twink... she's no longer nice to their faces either.

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (5.11) What'd you guys do for Mother’s Day? Let’s find out what the Tim Conway Jr. crew did with the women who birthed them! Crime is expanding from the San Fernando Valley to include the charming neighborhood of La Cañada. Home invaders who likely also struck Studio City, judging by reports of the white Kia getaway car, stole thousands of dollars in jewelry, even spraying the family dog with bear spray, from a home in the foothills of the Verdugo Mountains. Have you ever gone to a store where everything is locked up behind glass and you have to find the worker with the key to get into the case? Timmy was at a hardware store, and with the help of a crowbar he took matters into his own hands. There's been a spate of LA home invasions this year, with nearly 3,000 burglary victims already this year in the Greater Los Angeles area. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, I chat with creature effects artist, puppeteer and digital pioneer Craig Caton-Largent about a career that arguably traces the entire arc of modern visual effects — from foam latex and animatronics to motion control, performance capture and full CG animation. Craig talks about growing up on a sheep and cattle ranch in Washington State, being captivated by the 1960s Batman TV show and then Planet of the Apes, and teaching himself prosthetics from Dick Smith's Monster Makeup Handbook. After tracking down Dick Smith's address in Who's Who in America, he wrote a letter that led to a year of mentorship over cassette tapes and ultimately introductions to Rick Baker, Stan Winston and Tom Burman. We get into his first job on Charles Band's Metal Storm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn, working on the Olympic alien for the 1984 closing ceremonies, sculpting barnacles on Cocoon, building Spock's seamless silicone ears on Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, undulating menacingly under shaving cream on Larry Cohen's The Stuff, and puppeteering Slimer's mouth on the original Ghostbusters. A big part of the conversation focuses on Jurassic Park, including the design evolution of the T-Rex, the helicopter convention moment that led to the McFadden motion base, the logistics of moving the full-size animatronic across the San Fernando Valley at night, and Craig's work as the Raptor puppeteer, including the now-legendary "head tilt" at the kitchen window that earned an on-set "It's like Alien, I love it" from Spielberg. We also talk about Craig's twenty-year stint as the caretaker, or "doctor", to the original ET puppet, including the time the LAPD turned up at his garage door thinking he was running a crack lab while he was actually repainting ET. Plus the story of how Stan Winston handing him a couple of SGI machines led, almost overnight, to him becoming one of the eight co-founders of Digital Domain alongside James Cameron and Scott Ross. Later in the conversation we move into Craig's animation career as a final layout artist and character TD at DreamWorks and Disney, with credits on Tangled, Rise of the Guardians, How to Train Your Dragon 2 and Turbo, and stories from working with Guillermo del Toro at DreamWorks. We finish on Craig's current role as Creative Director of the 3D Animation and Visual Effects department at the New York Film Academy in Burbank.

San Fernando Valley OG is one of those strains that doesn't rush you… it settles you.Smooth inhale, calm head, relaxed body, then out of nowhere you realize you've melted into the chair a little more than planned.In this episode, we break down San Fernando Valley OG from Fire Star and how it actually shows up in real life, not just on paper. The flavor leans sour, earthy, a little cheesy on the back end, and surprisingly solid for older flower.What's driving that experience:Terpenes you'll usually see:• Myrcene – that heavy, body-relax feel• Caryophyllene – adds a little spice, helps take the edge off stress• Limonene – keeps your head from going fully foggy• Linalool – soft, calming, slightly floral layerThis combo is why it feels balanced at first… but if you keep going, it leans more into that relaxed, almost sleepy zone.Cannabinoids (typical range):• THC: ~18–24%• CBD: usually very low, often

On today's episode, I talk to musicians Stefanie Drootin and Chris Senseney of Big Harp. Originally from the San Fernando Valley and the Sandhills of Nebraska respectively, Stefanie and Chris met two decades ago, when they became both romantic and creative partners, getting married, having two children and performing together as Big Harp. In 2011, they released their first album White Hat, followed by Chain Letters in 2013 and now thirteen years later, they've released their third record Runs to Blue on Saddle Creek, and it is fantastic!

In this episode of Booked On Rock, I'm joined by author Debora Masterson to explore Freedom Quest, a powerful and deeply human story about love, music, and the cost of chasing a dream.At the center is Michael Griffin—a gifted musician navigating the highs and lows of the Southern California music scene from the 1960s through the '80s. From gritty gigs backing dancers in San Francisco to the brink of a major-label deal, his journey captures the thrill of possibility—and the toll it can take. Along the way is Grace, the love of his life, whose connection with Michael begins in a San Fernando Valley music shop and becomes the emotional core of his story.But ambition, betrayal, and the chaos of the era pull them apart, sending both down separate and often painful paths. What follows is a sweeping story of separation, success, failure, and illness—and ultimately, redemption.In my conversation with Debora, we go deeper into the inspiration behind the story, the real-life influences, and the emotional truth at the heart of Freedom Quest.This is more than a rock story. It's a reminder that even when everything falls apart, music has the power to heal—and true love has a way of finding its way back.Purchase a copy of Freedom QuestVisit DeboraMasterson.com----------

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (4.13) That storm that just blasted through the San Fernando Valley was wild! It’s snowing up in Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead! The teachers and administrators' unions have reached a tentative deal with the LAUSD, potentially stopping the scheduled strike tomorrow. However, the SEIU, which represents school essential workers like bus drivers and cafeteria workers, hasn't reached an agreement, which means there may still be a strike, impacting students across LA. Speaking of LA, the Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick is retiring today after netting the team two Stanley Cups. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tim Conway Jr. Hour 2 (3.12) One of the staples of the San Fernando Valley is Casa Vega, which has been around for 70 years! Tonight our special studio guest is Christy Vega, who now runs the family restaurant following on from her grandparents. With her Covid relief funds, Christy took that cash and converted the Casa car park into a fancy, lush patio! Christy Vega grew up in the iconic 70-year-old Sherman Oaks restaurant and is keeping the delicious dream alive. Her late father Ray Vega will be honored by the community, with the nearby intersection at Ventura and Fulton being renamed after him. This unseasonable winter SoCal heatwave is a real drain, and it’s up to 30 degrees hotter than average for this time of year. Unfortunately, there’s more heat coming next week. Plus, it’s snakebite season! Be wary of rattlesnakes, especially the baby ones, which are more venomous than the adult ones. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to the final episode in the "Errol Flynn Slept Here" book read series. This is Ep. 13, and the Final Chapter in the book, called "The Death of Mulholland Farm." It is May 1988. Errol Flynn is now dead and gone, and the house that he built in 1941, his beloved Mulholland House, has sat vacant for almost three years, after the tragic death of its last owner, rock and roll superstar Rick Nelson. On a balmy spring afternoon, high in the mountains overlooking the San Fernando Valley, quite unceremoniously, the infamous party house, which Flynn once called his "refuge", is bulldozed to the ground, less than 50 years after its construction. In this episode, we explore the house's lasting legacy, and how its tragic end mirrored that of its most famous owner. We also enter into Errol's tortured mindset by exploring his own haunting and sometimes gentle, almost poetic musings, from his autobiography, "My Wicked, Wicked Ways." Between 1941 and 1985, three famous men - all with stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame - have owned and lived in the house, but none surpass the legend of the original owner, the charismatic and dangerous Errol Flynn.   It's been a wild ride with Errol - thanks for being here and supporting the "Errol Flynn Slept Here" series!

In this exercise in somewhat effective stunt-casting, Stabler gets pitted against his untethered analog, a rage-fueled annihilator of tween girls played by erstwhile star actor Matthew Modine. Yes, this week, the Munchie Boys took on “Rage” (SVU S6E17). In a structurally odd episode that pits rager against rager in a ticking-clock, nearly locked-room scenario until it suddenly isn't and renders much of what preceded moot, Stabler tries to nab the one who got away while confronting his own anger management issues. Don't worry, there's also talk of malodorous food PsyOps, truly pornographic whistling, edging, the nature of the San Fernando Valley, Modine's inability to shed his yuppie prick veneer, and so much more.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, Summer S, and Matt - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (2.26) Mark Thompson had A DAY, and the crew breaks it all down—plus a big thanks to Rydell Dodge for coming through and helping Mark with his car. Then the conversation turns to shocking local TV news as KTLA lays off major on-air names, including Glenn Walker, Mark Kriski, Kacey Montoya, Lu Parker, and reporter Ellina Abovian. From there, it’s media business drama: Netflix backs away from a Warner Bros. Discovery deal after Paramount’s offer is reportedly seen as the stronger play. On the streets, a Metro train and car collide in Central Alameda, leaving nine people treated and four transported, and the team tracks the latest details. And because it’s never just one topic, the show wraps with a fun travel debate—should you wear pajamas on flights?—before diving into the big question: the San Fernando Valley is getting Olympic events, so what exactly will The Valley Zone be hosting?

In my conversation with reporter and news anchor Melissa Wright we trace the roots of her calling, what she's learned along the way, and what it takes to be the “face” of the news in a world of mistrust, misinformation, and algorithms. It's a wide-ranging talk about journalism, neighborhoods, identity, and the kinds of questions that don't just inform us, but help us live.Melissa Wright is a journalist and former North Omaha Neighborhood Reporter and Weekend Anchor at KMTV Channel 3, and she is known for community-centered storytelling that informs, uplifts, and connects people. A graduate of the University of Houston, she earned her master's in journalism from New York University and is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. Raised in California's San Fernando Valley, Wright brings a deep respect for how neighborhoods shape lives, which guided her reporting in North Omaha. After two years here, Wright is now preparing for her next reporting role closer to home.*************************Today's show and others are supported by the generous membership of Amy and Tom Trenolone.*Bonus content* for Lives members only features exclusive content and more.

The hour kicks off with a classic Conway WHIP as the crew takes their best guesses at how many people have visited Disneyland since it opened, plus some fun talk about the mystery and exclusivity of Club 33. The mood turns serious with breaking news of a deadly crash on Barham Boulevard near Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank. From there, the conversation shifts to big-picture LA issues, including the San Fernando Valley’s massive population — nearly 1.9 million people — and the ongoing frustration of having zero major sports teams. The crew also dives into the ambitious idea of a subway line running through the Santa Monica Mountains and over the Sepulveda Pass. The hour wraps with Conway sharing details about his involvement in a possible lawsuit, adding a personal and dramatic close to a packed segment.

Traffic grinds to a halt in El Monte after a suspicious device is discovered, setting off a major law enforcement response. Meanwhile, coyotes are turning up everywhere across L.A. — from Dodger Stadium to inside apartment buildings — raising concerns about just how bold they’ve become. The conversation shifts to Hollywood, where new streetlights come with a shocking price tag of nearly a million dollars.
