Speaker 1: It's Camp I Am six forty and you're listening to the Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app.
00:00:08
Speaker 2: Tonight is one of the biggest entertainment weekends of the year, or this whole weekend is round, but we are in the middle of it.
00:00:14
Speaker 3: Tonight.
00:00:14
Speaker 2: Comic Con is on now in San Diego. Comic devotees pack it in into the San Diego Convention Center all around the Gas Lamp district for some sites and sound. We are joined once again by KFI reporter John Fink, who has been down in San Diego for the Comic convention since early in the week.
00:00:31
Speaker 3: It joins us right now.
00:00:32
Speaker 4: Busy day, sir, Oh, yes, very busy day. Weather is cooperating, which is kind of nice. It was a little more humid and then the temps kind of came down, so you see people out here with some long pants and jackets. They're not all just sweating away. Well that's a nice change for Comic Con.
00:00:49
Speaker 2: I know, because there's always a lot of sweat at Comic Con. And like you said, that's still under a heat advisory though, so hopefully there's more time in the convention center and not as much time out gas lamp. But I did see Johnny Depp made it appearance yesterday, Yeah, promoting his new Yes he did movie which is called Ebenezer, which I am internally referring to in my mind as Sweeney Todd two.
00:01:14
Speaker 4: Look, I I'll buy that. I'll buy that ticket. But yeah, it was pretty impressive, and apparently it was a It was a timed thing, and he would step out of this little display and I kind of overheard as I was walking by that he was coming out once every hour, hour and a half, which was a hilarious thing to me because as soon as people got wind of that, they were all just camping out in front of this, you know, one storefront that the only function was to show what the movie looked like and then have him come out of a door and then go back in and do a little bit of acting with the makeup and the costumes and whatnot.
00:01:47
Speaker 2: Did you see it or were you? Because I looked at the I watched the videos. It looked like a lot of fun.
00:01:52
Speaker 4: It looked really fun. I did not see it myself, but I saw the storefront and I saw the press of people that I had to kind of squeeze past. But other than that. No, I hadn't. I didn't see that. I will say, pretty soon after our conversation on Wednesday, I was walking home and going across a crosswalk and look up and go, oh hi, John Cena. So that was pretty amazing on a billboard. This is true, a real one. I actually just reflectively said oh, hi, John Cena, and he said oh hey, and then just kept walking.
00:02:25
Speaker 2: Wait, you said you looked up, meaning like you're six'. Ten does that Mean John cena's taller than you?
00:02:30
Speaker 3: Are, no he is.
00:02:32
Speaker 4: Not, NO i definitely can confirm he is. NOT i just you, know here's the. Thing when you said me Being i'm A i'm a very big fan of, safety and so WHEN i step across a, CROSSWALK i looked down to make Sure i'm not gonna knock anybody over, turn and THEN i look up and there's the.
00:02:47
Speaker 5: Guy yeah.
00:02:47
Speaker 2: Exactly and do you think then you could take him even though you are a fan of?
00:02:52
Speaker 3: Safety how did he?
00:02:53
Speaker 4: LOOK i will SAY i have heard enough people in my lifetime physically by accident THAT i could potentially IF i used my intentions for, EVIL i. COULD i could not, say oh my, god you, KNOW i was a COLLEGE i was a college basketball player back in the day AND i was the goon so that was that was part.
00:03:13

00:04:08
Speaker 2: Well, YEAH i love That Blade runner aesthetic very popular among us. Dweebs And i'll Say i've never felt Like Blade runner is more realistic than this time in our lives in.
00:04:19
Speaker 3: Terms of just artificial intelligence being so.
00:04:22
Speaker 2: Important what was sort of a cautionary tale and a pipe dream now feels very. CLOSE i, mean well within, reason but at least the idea that you, know people speaking to things and watching content and not knowing that that wasn't made by a real. Person it's a very STRANGE. Timee, yeah, well what's.
00:04:39
Speaker 4: On the doctor to?
00:04:40
Speaker 2: Night you're going you going to any, parties going to see any sexy spider man or anything like.

00:05:47
Speaker 6: Fink you're listening To Tim Conway junior on demand FROM KFI am six.
00:05:53
Speaker 2: Forty just a quick clarification, here little talkback that we got THAT i wanted to address before we got too far into the.
00:06:01
Speaker 7: Show, Hey, andy how come it takes you so long to start the show once the intro? Starts does it really take that long to get down from your helicopter into the.
00:06:11
Speaker 3: Studio, well, yeah the issue is the.
00:06:15
Speaker 2: Helicopter it's easier to land it during the day month before six, pm but after six they send THE atc, home so we don't have any ground crew here on the roof of the, Iheartbuilding SO i have to physically try to just manage that all, myself and it's hard to fly the helicopter While i'm scrolling, tiktoks.
00:06:35
Speaker 3: But you know it takes me a.
00:06:37
Speaker 2: Minute the real answer is THAT, i when i've my brain is so atrophied from doing working BOTH ktla AND. Kfi not like Because i'm tired of doing you, know by doing. It it's BECAUSE i have an outlook for BOTH ktla AND, kfi SO i have to log in for two different, corporations and my email and my passwords are, different AND i can never remember which one is. Which SO i often will sit here After cobet leaves and put my credentials in and try to log in and get the audio set up and, everything AND i will try so many times to put the correct credentials in clacking away that it locks me, out So i'm not actually able to even access the.
00:07:25
Speaker 3: Equipment so that's that's my.
00:07:27

Speaker 3: Like, dear, dear, dear dear.
00:10:32
Speaker 2: Girl it is, uh it is really. REMARKABLE i loved. It we did it On monday on The Morning, show AND i was really excited because it felt like it was one of those, like, oh The internet's united about this goofy little.
00:10:44
Speaker 5: Thing, okay but it's also legit terrifying when you first see.
00:10:48
Speaker 3: It, yeah because you're, like, well that's a.
00:10:50
Speaker 8: Demon, yeah that's gonna haunt me in my dreams. Tonight but he seems very.
00:10:54
Speaker 2: Sweet, also have you seen the FOUR k picks of him lately roaming around on the?
00:10:57
Speaker 4: Internet? Oh thank.

Speaker 3: Detail but he's he's quite something to. Behold and there may be More jimothy is now roaming.
00:11:12
Speaker 11: Around if you're fortunate to come across somebody that doesn't know About, jimothy the encourage them in that moment to look it up and just look at their face when they first see.
00:11:23
Speaker 8: It, yeah because my daughter was.
00:11:24
Speaker 11: Just like oh at, first she was like, terrified and she, goes what's wrong with?
00:11:30
Speaker 8: THEM i, say he's got spinal Cond it's, like.
00:11:32
Speaker 3: But he's, not yeah. Exactly it's.
00:11:34
Speaker 2: Sweet, yeah but like the way we we give so much love and appreciation and sweetness to animals who have.
00:11:43
Speaker 3: Issues like that that we don't offer to human.
00:11:45
Speaker 8: Beings, well and many human beings don't deserve it.
00:11:49
Speaker 3: Well BUT i mean of the equivalent sort of. Issue you, KNOW i don't. Know it's a. Weird it's all weird it. Is it's a.
00:11:55
Speaker 2: Weird internet is a strange place AND i AND i am a fan of, IT i think in, General BUT i did hear a lot OF i, mean SOMETIMES i think about When i'm looking for stories to, do especially for the morning, shot, like you, know The internet had a good.
00:12:07
Speaker 3: Run may we'd had a good. Run we can just hang it up right.
00:12:11
Speaker 10: Here and she knows this news would have also brought happiness to the Late Sandy steers who died earlier this. Year sandy a conservationist and fierce advocate For jackie In shadow who we had spoken to time and time.
00:12:24
Speaker 2: Again, yeah we had her ON kfi a lot as. Well she would call in and talk about especially when the babies were young last year and there was a lot of concern, About, oh are they going to make it or? NOT i think it was an exceptionally cold. Winter one of them didn't make, it, obviously But, sandy you, know remembered fondly for her. Advocacy and now it looks as, if like we, said the area that they, live all those birds will be preserved thanks to a wealthy donor who has stepped in at the last. Minute they had basically up until the end of this month to get it figured out before maybe it was sold and, redeveloped which is a crazy kind of thing to think. About but as far as that part of the drama goes with The, eagles they're okay for.
00:13:07
Speaker 3: Now all.
00:13:09
Speaker 6: Good you're listening To Tim Conway junior on demand FROM KFI am six forty.

00:14:09
Speaker 3: California, oh For christ's, sakes look at. This this is.
00:14:12
Speaker 2: So Obnoxious WHEN i have gone to an article to use this reference and THEN i go back to the article AND i can't read it because of a dumb. PAYWALL i don't subscribe. Anyway there's a place Called Santa Monica Monessori. School it used to be In Santa. Monica they closed recently Last. Friday it's been around since nineteen. Sixty everybody, else of, course is surprised because kids who had been going there for a long time thought they were going to keep going in the. Fall but a letter was Sent july. Fifth the school's director said the decision was not made. Lightly they, say we are going to close the school and a new school will assume occupancy of the facility as they prepare for the next. Year the new school is Called Alpha. School it is known as AN ai powered private school based In. Texas the second, location LIKE i, said will be. Opening eight new schools By Alpha schools are expected to open this fall across Southern. California all Over, California, Malibu, Paloa, Auto, piedmont and there's currently programs In San, Francisco Santa, barbara And Orange county that use. This instead of, teachers there will be one on ONE ai teaching with the. Kids it's A k to eight. School students learn subjects like math on a computer for two hours a day USING ai powered software that customizes the. Curriculum the rest of the time is off. Screen most, importantly they, say we're giving kids back their most valuable, resource which is. Time ew whenever someone Says i'm going to give you back your. TIME i figure in a zoom meeting with somebody's, said, okay well it's it's seven fifty six meeting with scheduled to. Eight i'm just going to give you back some of your time.

00:16:15
Speaker 4: You my?
00:16:16
Speaker 3: Wife my?
00:16:17
Speaker 2: Wife most, importantly LIKE i, said they're giving the kids back their. Time they otherwise they wouldn't be able to develop life skills that they are supposed to. Be, look how much are you going to, pay by the, way for a school with no? Teachers And i'm not really sure what the accreditation of this is. Either you think it's twenty thousand dollars a Year Santa monica for? School do you think it's forty thousand dollars a? Year try sixty five thousand dollars a year FOR ai powered school with no?
00:16:42
Speaker 3: Teacher what are we, doing you?

00:16:56
Speaker 3: Something that's a good.
00:16:57
Speaker 2: QUESTION i don't, know BUT i feel like you KNOW. Ai can you imagine you know you've USED? Ai it's not. Perfect it knows some, stuff and maybe you think kids aren't advanced enough to be aware of.
00:17:09
Speaker 5: It, also like the amount of discipline's not going to be handed, out.
00:17:14
Speaker 3: That's, right you.
00:17:15
Speaker 2: Know can you imagine if they're, Like you're, like there's a fight going, on and you know These Santa monica kids ARE i don't know If Santa monica kids are kind of, passive SO i don't know if they would be fighting like the way that we were in The. Midwest but the chat THE ai bot or whatever from its computer is, like that's. Funny violence is unfortunately not a really good way to solve. Problems it looks like you're involved in a. Confrontation would you like me to list some more productive ways that you could solve this?
