Starting point is 00:00:00 About to get into a brand new episode of Klein Alley Show, but first let's tell you about our good friends at the finest airport that ever was and ever will be. The San Bernardino International Airport. Especially when there's summer travel plans, it can get expensive at these airports. That's why you got to go to this airport where parking is just five bucks a day. Plus you got those easy trips, San Francisco or Provo, Utah. Maybe you didn't plan anything this summer. See how easy it is. Don't be one of those people who has to pack your patience. Go to San Bernardino International Airport. Okay, enough shilling. Now it's time to get into a brand new episode of Klein Alley Show. Hey, what's going on, Klein Alley?
Starting point is 00:00:32 Are you ready? I love Klein Alley, you little bitch. Klein Alley, it's just okay. Just don't let Frank's body into that. Good morning, everybody. Hey, what up, Klein Alley? Whoa, sweet divot steak, did you see that? Meet the Klein Alley Show.
Starting point is 00:00:52 Let's get the show started. The show started. the show started we are live in los angeles three two one and here we go it's klein alley show 6.7 kroq fm and hd pasadena world famous hey good morning and welcome to your thursday is that right wow the prequel is here look at that bf thursday welcome really creeped up on us this week didn't it bf thursday day Or just Thursday. I thought today was Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:01:29 Is today really Thursday? Yeah. Man, it never goes that way. I'm usually always wrong, and it's earlier in the week than I thought. When it's later in the week, that's like such a great surprise. Good for you. I'm glad that you woke up all morning thinking it was Wednesday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:46 How nice for you to realize it's not. I was convinced of it. You know what? Yesterday, before you got here, Vanessa came in and was like, good morning, we're over. She said, the week's almost over. And I said, no, it's not. Yeah, you can't say that on Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:02:02 That's the halfway point. And the show hadn't even started yet, so the day hadn't even started yet. Right. I had no idea. Well, that's a great surprise. Sometimes I come in here and I think it's Thursday. It's Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:02:11 That's a sucky surprise. But everyone always knows it's Friday. Everyone has that. It's the best branded day of the week. That's why it's got that whole song. Yeah. I feel like Tuesday through Thursday, everyone mixes up.
Starting point is 00:02:21 But on a Friday, everyone knows. In the summer, I think all the days get a little sloppy, kind of like that week between Christmas and New Year's. It's a little, you kind of know what's going on, but also there's a little bit more of a margin of error. Yeah. Because everyone's out of their kind of regular routine and schedule. But it does suck thinking that it's Thursday when it's actually Tuesday or Wednesday. Oh, that's the worst. That's a terrible thing.
Starting point is 00:02:41 That's the worst. So anyway, today, for anyone else who was unaware, today is Thursday. So happy to be up Thursday. Enjoy yourself some breakfast for dinner. Enjoy the pre-Gwen. Lots to get to on the show today. Of course, we will continue to hook you up with tickets to go to Universal Studios Hollywood and ride that new Fast and Furious roller coaster that just opened.
Starting point is 00:03:01 You'll be one of the first. It's kind of cool. We're lucky it's right in our backyard in the sense that some people are traveling around the world to go there and ride the ride, and all you've got to do is drive 20 minutes and park. And you get that parking validation, right? Yeah, probably. Do we throw that in? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:03:15 That would be cool. It's going to be hard to drive regular in a car after going on the Fast and Furious roller coaster, so then you've got to go drive and follow them. 10 miles an hour out of the parking lot. Follow the rules again. Not good. We've got that to get to today. We also continue to hook you up with this festival happening in Santa Monica.
Starting point is 00:03:29 It's called Ocean Way. And if you're not paying attention to the show, you should start right now because everything that we say on the air, good, bad, or otherwise, could be used against us or could be used for you to win your way into the show with the killers, Jack White, Sublime, and others. In fact, I didn't realize this, Allie, but apparently people do claim that us yapping on the radio occasionally does some good. and this guy wanted to thank us because we brought his attention to something and apparently it changed his life forever. So listen to this. I think finally we start the show with a positive call for
Starting point is 00:03:57 a change. I just decided to start watching the Showvertime podcast and hearing Klein talk about what he was into and that might just be the first and last time I ever listened to that. I just can't
Starting point is 00:04:13 look at you guys the same anymore. That's the wrong No, that's the wrong message. He's disturbing. That guy, that was the wrong one. This is the guy that's saying a good thing about us. That guy's not going to listen anymore. Here's a guy that likes us.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Fine, Allie. Hey, sweet divots. I am a caller from the New Jersey area, an OG slogger, with a big thank you. A couple weeks ago, maybe a month ago, you guys interviewed Matt Bellamy from Muse. He was talking about a tour. He had not been on the radar for a while, looked it up. Turns out he was going to be at TNC, 45 minutes away from us. We went last night to his concert, or to the Concert Muse.
Starting point is 00:04:49 Absolutely amazing. Just a great, great show. Great venue. Great night. Just everything was good. And the only reason we were there is because you guys had him on, and you interviewed him, and put him back on the radar. So thank you for that.
Starting point is 00:05:04 Have a great show. Bye. Yeah, well, Allie and I take a lot of credit for the success of the band Muse. Clearly. Yeah, I know. It's because we put him back on the map. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That guy was wasting away in Irrelevanceville,
Starting point is 00:05:14 And we brought him back. I hope there are just as many lasers as you promised. It sounds like there were. Yeah, it's cool. That's one of the first shows they put on as part of the new tour. So you're welcome. And who knows what we remind you about today. I'm K-Rock.
Starting point is 00:05:28 Good morning. All right, lots to give you this morning. So if you're into it for the free stuff, just keep listening and we'll hook you up. Limited edition Klein Alley Show merch and moments. Of course, 100 bucks of Alley's cash. People were thrilled yesterday. She lost a round of Alley Knows the News. Had to pay the people.
Starting point is 00:05:42 Oh, my God. Yes. Allie knows the news. She got beat, dude. Frickin' the pudding ain't sweeter from this side of the spoon, is it, huh, sweetheart? Want to answer that, Allie? Is the pudding sweeter from that side of the spoon? It's not.
Starting point is 00:05:56 Okay, so this guy made a point. He's right. The pudding ain't sweeter, and you learned that. Frickin' the pudding ain't sweeter from this side of the spoon, is it, huh, sweetheart? Look it, dude. One cheater takes out another cheater, dog. That's just how it is, dude. How does it feel?
Starting point is 00:06:10 You sit there like Bill Clinton lying to the public. You know what I'm saying? I do not cheat on Allie Knows the News. Yeah, you do, dog. And put it to that lady, and so now you're going to get a chance to your own mediciones, okay? So this guy clearly is an intelligent listener, and he is convinced, Allie, that you are cheating. And even though maybe the contestant was cheating yesterday, she out-cheated a cheater, and you lost in your own game. I'm sick of these conspiracy theories.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Well, someone put it in song form, and here we go. She's technically a cheater because it's one versus two. Let's find out if Pregnant Allie knows the news So listen, if you'd like to battle Pregnant Allie and take her money This is money that could be used to help offset some of the cost of having a second child It's expensive, all that stuff you gotta buy Diapers and formulas and everything else I'm already getting some of the bills from the embryo transfer
Starting point is 00:06:59 See, that ain't cheap So now's a great time to take Allie's money So we can completely make sure that she is starting from nothing Cool And if you want it, all you gotta do is call now 800-520-1067 Let's turn yesterday's loss into a losing streak for her. She was on her high horse for a while, talking about how she hadn't paid out in a while.
Starting point is 00:07:17 It had been months. It's been a while since people beat you, and I've got the questions. They're all about things happening in the news. Allie has not seen them yet, so this will be a completely fair and square game. And if you'd like to play, call now. We'll play that after this quick break, and the show continues next on KROQ. Technically, it is two against one, which I believe is called Canadian doubles. She's technically a cheater because it's one versus two.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Let's find out if pregnant Allie knows the news You'll be battling Allie and her unborn child Living inside of her womb as we speak Well, my unborn child is not helping me get smarter Let's put it that way Well, I mean, it's technically two against one, right? Two heartbeats, two brains Yes, but the baby is sucking the life out of me
Starting point is 00:07:59 Also, we've heard the baby The baby is intelligent Yeah, the baby says all sorts of stuff Do you want us to listen to the baby? No, no, no I'll give you $100 if you don't All right. We'll do that later in the show once we write something.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Let me say hi to... Won't take long. This is Christina from Riverside. Good morning, Christina. Good morning. If you're okay taking Allie's money, all you have to do is answer some questions about things happening in the news.
Starting point is 00:08:24 She will sequester herself outside of the KROQ studios. And if you're one of the many people just listening right now, let's see how you would have done had you been on the hot seat. We're rooting for the people. Allie lost yesterday, had to pay $100. If you do not win and do not get her money, don't worry. We'll give you some limited edition Klein Alley Show merch, especially if you've never slept with Jake.
Starting point is 00:08:42 You can get a shirt that says you've never been intimate with Jake, and the odds are you haven't, so maybe you get that in your future. Let's get into your round, and here we go. Alley knows the news. Question number one. This U.K. band has just passed the Beatles with the new best-selling studio album in the history of the U.K. Which band is it that has just passed the Beatles?
Starting point is 00:09:10 Oasis. Oasis. We've got a question number two. Universal Pictures has confirmed a biopic based on this Long Beach native that will be hitting theaters in August of 2027. Got to wait a year, but who's getting their own biopic? Bradley Knoll. Bradley Knoll is from Long Beach.
Starting point is 00:09:31 We've got a question number three. Let's go with this one. This Celebrity Ginger has shocked the public by changing his hairstyle, and he claims he had to do it because, shocker, he got sunburned on his scalp. Which Celebrity Ginger has changed their hairstyle, and it has shocked the public? Oh, Ed Sheeran? Ed Sheeran is a famous ginger. That's a good guess right there.
Starting point is 00:10:02 We're going to go to question number four right now. Glenn Powell is a big movie star, and he'll be playing what Olympian in a future movie? What Olympian will he be portraying, the great Glenn Powell? Uh-oh. Let's go with Bruce Jenner. Bruce Jenner. And finally, question number five. This food marketed to children has been recalled because it's got potentially some plastic in it.
Starting point is 00:10:33 What food is now in the middle of a recall? Oh, Uncrustables? Uncrustables. God, I hope not. I've been throwing those down left and right. I think Johnny's eating about four Uncrustables a day right now in the back. All right, hold on. We'll bring Allie back in in a moment.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Send her in here. Allie, what were you sprinting for? Where did you run? The bathroom or something? Hi, the P.E.F. Oh, that was a cry. I've never seen you move like that before. That was wild.
Starting point is 00:10:57 I was going to be late. Okay, no, it was crazy. Some real running. We have got Christine on the phone from Riverside. You're battling to hold on to your own money. And here we go. Question number one. This UK band has just passed the Beatles,
Starting point is 00:11:08 and they now have the top-selling studio album in the history of the UK. Who is it? Yeah, I think this is Oasis. She also said Oasis. And to beat the Beatles is like that's, I believe, I feel like that's the mark. Anytime you, quote, did better, sold more, had more of this than the Beatles. Because they held that title for so long. And Oasis is absolutely the correct answer.
Starting point is 00:11:33 She got that right as well. Both of you guys on the board. One, one after one. And congratulations to the Gallagher brothers. Didn't they also say that one of Queen's greatest hits is the top-selling album in the U.K. of all time? Yeah, that's the part. That surpassed the Beatles, too? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:49 No, the Beatles suck. The Beatles just keep getting beaten now. Well, they can't put out any new stuff. There are only two of them floating around, I think. You're right. Thank you, Vanessa. We've got a question number two right now. It's tied up 1-1.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Universal Pictures has confirmed a biopic based on this Long Beach native that will be hitting theaters in almost a year, August of 2027. Yeah, I think that is Snoop. All right. She guessed Bradley Knoll of Sublime, but the correct answer is Snoop D-O-double-G is getting his own biopic, which he claims will be R-rated at least. Oh, well, how could it not be?
Starting point is 00:12:22 Well, because, you know, Snoop, I think, is also one of the voices of those dinosaurs in that new Paw Patrol movie. So, like, he can go family. He also has a great kids album. Yes, that's the thing. But I think he said this biopic is going to be not the family-friendly Snoop.
Starting point is 00:12:36 No, it's about his life. Ali's on the board again, 2-1. Let's go, Christina. We're playing Comeback now as Ali goes up another point. We go to question number three. Ali knows the news on KROQ. This Ginger celebrity has shocked the public with a new hairstyle because he claims he had to after getting shockingly sunburned on his scalp because that's what happens to gingers this time of year. Which Ginger celebrity is explaining his new hairdo?
Starting point is 00:13:02 I did see this. I think this is people were up in arms because Conan O'Brien's hairstyle was different. She guessed it was that singer, that ginger singer, Ed Sheeran, which would have been a funny guess as well. But the correct answer is the iconic Conan O'Brien, who's now going with the slick-backed Pat Riley look to accommodate his sunburned hair. Allie is right again.
Starting point is 00:13:26 Goes up two with two questions left. Glenn Powell, big movie star, will now be playing what Olympian in a future movie? Just announced. I don't know, Michael Phelps? Good guess. It's a little gayer than that, Allie. Greg Louganis.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Ah, Louganis. Louganis. There you are. That's how you used to get your names, right? Is that what they're calling it? That's right. They're calling the movie. No one gets the point on that, and we go to this final question.
Starting point is 00:14:00 And it all comes down to this. There's been a recall. food marketed to children has been recalled because they think it could contain some plastic which seems to be
Starting point is 00:14:08 a problem these days everything's either giving you diarrhea or it's got plastic in it what food is being recalled as a parent I should know this
Starting point is 00:14:16 you should I think it's is it fruit snacks fruit snackums they're like the ultimate kid snack she guessed Uncrustables
Starting point is 00:14:23 good guess I'm not right Allie guessed fruit snacks closer but it's the fruit pouches the kind that you know
Starting point is 00:14:30 are filled with that a little You'll suck it down. Oh, the little yogurts? Yeah, not those ones, but the certain... Oh, where it's like, it's banana and peas. Yeah, but they try to squeeze a little spinach in there. And a little plastic.
Starting point is 00:14:41 So you may want to look that up, because those are being recalled over a possible plastic contamination. Well, at the end of it all, Allie did hold onto her money for today. And Christina, we appreciate you playing, but what must you shamefully admit over the airwaves with K-Rock? Go ahead. Allie knows the news. We'll go with that. A lot of people are saying, this woman sounds high right now. Are you high right now?
Starting point is 00:15:00 No. Oh, okay. Just confirming. It's okay if you are. We don't have to hold that against you. Yeah, we don't care. We don't judge. Thanks for playing.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Tomorrow morning, another chance to take Allie's money. Hold on. Give that woman some merch, as promised on Kara. Hopefully, 2026 will be looked back upon you as a funner summer. That's our goal here. It's funner summer. This weekend, another one of our goals will be accomplished. I believe it is the camping trip.
Starting point is 00:15:29 The funner summer. that will be happening with Vanessa and Allie. Yeah, Vanessa has to go on a camping trip, and I think she's never camped, right? I've car camped, but I feel like I've never rough camped, like real camp. She's been asking Allie so many questions about what to expect and what things she's allowed to bring,
Starting point is 00:15:50 and obviously based on what you just heard a moment ago, she does no concept of camping and is calling it rough camping. It feels like it's rough. Right. Expression is roughing it. Okay, roughing it. Okay, I'm sorry to bore you with the facts. I know, and I said thank you, and I said it back.
Starting point is 00:16:10 It's called rough camping. Roughing it. So you guys are heading out on Friday to go camping. Yeah, I mean, we're going to be there all weekend. I don't know if, Vanessa, you want to only rough it for one day. You're free to just come for Saturday to Sunday if you'd rather just dip your toe in and see if you like it. It's going to be balls hot. That's literally my biggest, well, I have a lot of concerns.
Starting point is 00:16:31 It's going to be cooler there than it is here. Is it by a lake, in the mountains? Where are you guys doing? It is, it's near San Diego. It is near a couple of small lakes, and it's supposed to be like 80 during the day. That's hot. Well, yeah, but I mean, I'm not going to find like 65 degree temperatures down here. I mean, 80 is better than like 100 where it's going to be everywhere else.
Starting point is 00:16:53 What is your biggest concern, Vanessa, or what questions do you have? Because Allie, you know, she's been camping many times. I was born camping. She's, yeah, I mean, she kind of, you know, between the lesbian thing and the Subaru and everything else, I mean, this is her life. Give me a lake and a log, and I'm happy. This is what she does. I mean, you love camping, Allie, right? I love camping.
Starting point is 00:17:12 I love setting it all up. And I know people think that it's a big pain in the ass to set up the tent, set up the food, do all the cooking, all the cleanup. Everything is kind of a process, but that's what I love about it. Most people don't like the idea that they have to be gross for a few days, but you're used to that. Oh, my gosh. It's the best. There's no pressure to shower or to change or to wipe the dirt off your face. Wait, you don't have one of those portable shower things?
Starting point is 00:17:36 You guys don't have one of those? No. No. Why would I have a... I only have a shower in our house. I don't have a regular shower. Why would I have a portable shower? Okay, good point.
Starting point is 00:17:42 She doesn't use her permanent shower, let alone a portable one. You know, we will take some wipes with us. Okay. That was one of my questions. I was like, okay, are we near a lake? Like, how are we, is there a showering situation? So I guess it's white piece. Well, you can jump in the lake.
Starting point is 00:17:59 That's a great. So, but we are near a lake, like really near. You know, to be honest, I have not been here before. It's just the first time. So I see a couple of lakes on the map, but I've not been to the lakes before. So I don't know what activities there are. I don't know if you can take boats on the lake. If you can fish on the lake, would you be interested in fishing?
Starting point is 00:18:18 Yeah. Now that's passion. I'll do it. I'll do it. What other questions do you have? Because we're providing everything for you. The only thing that you need to bring is an air mattress. We're providing the tent.
Starting point is 00:18:29 We're providing all the food. All the equipment that you can need for camping is going to be provided. It's the best way to do your first camping trip. No, I know. Seriously, thank you for that. My next question is, is there a bathroom or is this a dig a hole situation? Dig a hole. Really?
Starting point is 00:18:44 Like, it's not a camping ground? There's no bathrooms? Allie will have some of those doggy poo bags with her if those are helpful, Vanessa. I am not eating. What? So that she doesn't poop. There may be, Allie, you don't think, tell her the truth. There are both.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Others, others, okay, good. It's a campground, yeah. So are you going to be like right on top of other people? Like I said, I've not been to this place. The campgrounds do look pretty close together. That's the worst part about camping for me is like trying to get out in nature and then you're right next to somebody. Yeah, I know, especially if you're next to somebody with bad taste in music, and they've got their music on all the time, or they've decided they don't want to go to bed tonight, and they're just going to be super loud, talking by the fire, getting drunk and screaming, and you just have to be there for it. And this time of year, everything's sold out. It's packed everywhere.
Starting point is 00:19:27 Totally. It's going to be packed every weekend. Or you're the family that's having a great camping trip until the lesbian couple pulls up with the child and Vanessa. The two children. I assure you we will be one of the least annoying families there. Oh, I'll take the bet on that. No, it's always the big giant groups of super wasted people that are the most annoying. Most fun. They're having funner summer.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Yeah, but if you want to go to bed at like even 11 p.m. and somebody decides they want to stay up till 3 a.m., that's something that you have to deal with. So, Vanessa, are you going to bring a sleeping bag? Is that your plan? No, Ali told me to bring an inflatable mattress. Yes, there are things that have to go on top of it. Right, so the inflatable mattress is part one. Oh, I don't have that. You don't have a sleeping bag?
Starting point is 00:20:10 No. I could loan you one of my daughters. Yeah, could I borrow it, please? Sure. I believe it's a Dora the Explorer, maybe. Really? I think it is, or maybe a Frozen one. It's older.
Starting point is 00:20:22 I mean, they're too old for it now, but you'd be great for it. Yeah, that's fine. Okay. Are you going to bring a pillow? Yeah, I'll bring a pillow. Are we helping you? I need a list. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:32 So you don't know. So your biggest concern, the only thing you've really been thinking about is the bathroom situation. Well, no, and then I was like, okay, how hot is it? And, like, what kind of pants do I wear? Like, not leggings, obviously. Why can't you wear leggings? Or shorts. Or what about shorts?
Starting point is 00:20:46 Are shorts okay? Like, is a snake going to get me? Or heels. Is a snake going to get her? That's a good question. Like, if I wear shorts, or is it safe for me? Well, you're going to be out in the, you're going to be camping. So, there's probably going to be animals around.
Starting point is 00:20:58 And when you're in a crowded campground, you know who loves those is bears. Bears love it. So, they usually have an area where you have to lock up your trash at night. Otherwise, the bears will come and try and eat all of your food. And sometimes they will try and get into your car. They've been known to break into people's cars. We had one that walked right through our campsite last time I went camping. And, yeah, it can get a little scary.
Starting point is 00:21:20 But they usually, if they get some food, they'll leave you alone. But remember to, if you do encounter a bear, just yell. What's a second, Len? Freak it the hell out. George on KROQ, good morning. Hey, good morning. This one's for Vanessa. You do realize that Allie is pregnant
Starting point is 00:21:36 and she's probably going to be farting a lot in her sleep and you guys are sharing a tent. We're not sharing a tent. We're not sharing a tent. Oh, you're not sharing a tent? No, she's getting her own tent. She has a whole ass family. Yeah, I've got to be like,
Starting point is 00:21:47 thank you so much for inviting me, but I don't want to be with your family in a little tent. That would be crazy. That would be terrible for her. You're building Vanessa her own little tent? We're bringing her her own tent. A little fort? I have a four-person tent that she can have for herself
Starting point is 00:22:00 or I have one of those single tents. So you have to go into Vanessa's tent to fart, you're saying? Yeah, I'll go in there. okay i have another question yes uh obviously maybe there's no reception but like our like expect our phones to die right like there's no scrolling at night is that helping you go to bed may like a little bit well this is an opportunity to unplug you unplug you get you connect with nature where you just kind of sit around the fire and you talk and you laugh no i mean i like that part i'm just saying
Starting point is 00:22:36 like for the bedtime doesn't sound like but then i want to go to my tent and scroll on tiktok for three hours it's time to go to bed yeah you're not going to probably have much use usage of your phone at all so you're gonna have to listen to ali's stories like dice and now i'll tell you about the other time i went camping and almost got a fish yeah if you if you want to scroll get ready to scroll through ali's long stories of all of the other times she's gone camping and sometimes we can tell spooky stories vanessa do you want that yeah i do i do so are you excited or nervous or scared? I'm excited.
Starting point is 00:23:06 I'm a little bit worried about the heat. I've been having like this whole week, this past two weeks, it's been so hot and I'm like, now I'm going to be out in nature
Starting point is 00:23:15 and just taking it. Yeah, well, I guess, Allie, didn't you one time say it was so loud where you were camping that you ended up going inside your car to sleep? Was that right?
Starting point is 00:23:24 Because you end up with those weird camping grounds where you can still hear the freeway? Yes, that is true. Well, there was another one where that was near the freeway and it was actually 10 minutes from my house,
Starting point is 00:23:32 so I just went home. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's the ultimate. You just go home. That was a practice trip last year. So anyway, this is exciting. Vanessa's going to be going real camping in the rough for the first time. She's very excited.
Starting point is 00:23:44 Oh, wait, wait. One more question. Do I bring a towel? Or are you bringing a towel? Am I bringing you a towel? No, I know that's a silly question. Every question has been a silly question. Okay, I'll bring a towel.
Starting point is 00:23:57 What were you thinking? Because I don't know if there's showers, but if there's a lake, then yeah, bring a towel, girl. Okay. That's it. Are you talking to yourself? Yeah, I am. Okay, fair enough. You know we have to hike five miles into the campsite, right?
Starting point is 00:24:10 Five miles? But with our car? Oh, that's not hiking, Vanessa. Okay, so that's another question. I do not have a hiking backpack. You don't have any kind of a hiking... Do you have hiking boots? She's going to be pulling, like, rolly luggage.
Starting point is 00:24:24 I do not have hiking boots. Do you have rolly luggage or are you going to bring a duffel bag? A duffel bag? At first, I was like, dude, I do not have, like, I was like, is my pink carry-on okay? But then I was like, that's kind of embarrassing, so don't do that. And then I found that I have a tiny daffle. It is a bit of a roll of shame from the car to the tent rolling, like, carry-on luggage through the dirt. I hope you guys document this as much, before the phones die, I hope you document as much of this as possible.
Starting point is 00:24:53 Because I think the people are going to want to see Vanessa's first experience of roughing it. Yeah, I want to have a nice, happy meeting because I do want Vanessa to get the full experience and to properly unplug, but I do want to capture some of it. You guys aren't really hiking to your campsite, right? No. Okay, I was going to say. We're car hiking, otherwise known as driving. That's good. Vanessa's excited about that.
Starting point is 00:25:12 Well, anyway, we'll update you next week, but that's a part of funner summer. So if you need an excuse to have more fun, force fun, to bring back fun in this world, go ahead and do some camping this weekend if you can find a spot. Okay, right. Well, pay attention to everything that is said on the show and win your way into a festival that has just been announced happening in September. In Santa Monica, you will see The Killers, you will see Jack White, you will see Sublime, you will see many, many, many other bands there if you get yourself into the Ocean Way Festival. And the only way to win your way in is by listening to K-Rock. Tickets all day starting at 9 o'clock and at 10 o'clock you'll have a chance to take part in the Klein Alley Shoshin Way Quiz. It's a chance for you to answer questions about today's show, things that are happening right now and things that have not happened yet.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Everyone is starting from the exact same place. Your chance to win your way into that. Coming up a little bit later this morning. Right now, though, there's this, your news. Grab your Adderall. It's time for ADD News. We're in another heat wave right now. It will last until Monday night.
Starting point is 00:26:10 So it is quite a long heat wave and heat advisory. Of course, they keep telling you to do things early in the morning and check on your elderly friends and neighbors. But I'm sure this will have people getting very creative on how to access a pool or a beach or free air conditioning this weekend. But here is something that I think we need to import immediately. And this I know you will be on board with, client. Oh, it is chilly. This isn't a fridge for food. It's a fridge for people.
Starting point is 00:26:39 The human fridge. Oh, man, fridge for people. Once we're battling extreme heat as Japan sees another brutal summer. Leave it to Japan to make things that we all want. They created panty vending machines. Yeah, that's right. They didn't ask any questions. They just made them.
Starting point is 00:26:54 They didn't stop there. So what's next? Human refrigerators. Temperatures in Tokyo have climbed close to 100 degrees Fahrenheit this week. The company behind the human fridge says it's designed for people who work outside, including construction workers and event staff. So the question would be, if it existed here in the U.S., how many would they put out? Would you have to pay to go in there?
Starting point is 00:27:17 Would there be a time limit as to how long you could be in the human fridge? Would they prioritize construction workers over you? Is a human fridge any different than like a walk-in freezer that you'd have at a restaurant? Or like a beer cave? Instead of storing food in there? There's just nothing stored in there. Just people? And I think they're like portable fridges that are outside.
Starting point is 00:27:35 It's not like it's inside of a Costco. It's like an outdoor fridge. So there's just a fridge on the side of the road and you just get in it and cool off? Yeah, like a porta potty, but a fridge. Oh, I bet you that'll be a port-a-potty real quick. Not in Japan, probably, but here we'd figure out a way. Here we would defile it, and we would cover it in graffiti, poop in it, do drugs in it. Well, regardless, it's a great idea, the human refrigerator.
Starting point is 00:27:56 I love it. They're the same, I believe it was also Japan that came out with the human washing machine, right? Wasn't that also Japan? Oh, yeah. People that didn't want to have to go bathe themselves, just stand in there. Yeah, I know they're talking about how Japan is having a population problem, that they're more depressed than ever. It seems like they're doing great to me. They're coming up with all the cool tech.
Starting point is 00:28:13 I know, Omar, you predicted this year that companies were going to start adjusting their menus to cater to all the people on weight loss drugs. It was one of your 2026 predictions. In a way, you are kind of right. And they're not changing the portions and making them smaller necessarily, which was what you thought. But they are making food blander now because people who are on GLP-1s have duller taste buds. New comments from Nestle's marketing chief this morning. He said the company is looking to spice up some of their products to counter duller taste buds that can accompany GLP-1 weight loss drugs. So because they have duller taste buds, they have to punch it up a little bit more for it to cut through.
Starting point is 00:28:52 He said Nestle has been testing packaged food on consumers to understand how tastes change on the medication. A 2025 study found perception of the five basic taste qualities were depressed by the weight loss drugs. Nestle said changes could include adding spices or more pepper. More pepper. Did your taste buds change any? I don't think so. Nuh-uh. No, huh?
Starting point is 00:29:15 Well, Jake didn't really. I mean, let's be honest. You're supposed to find food a little more boring. Jake eats mustard sandwiches. Those are good. I don't really think that's the right guy to go to. He has fancy mustard. It's a delicacy.
Starting point is 00:29:25 Do you really have sophisticated taste buds? Not the guy to go to. Also, I'll give him more credit. I'm just French as yellow. I got fancy mustard. I went to a restaurant last night, Ali, and they said they had a note on the menu that everything on the menu was available in half size portions. Wow. So I was
Starting point is 00:29:41 thinking to myself, as I saw that, I go, wow, Omar is spot on. But interesting move on the restaurant's part. You would think half size portions, half the price, right? That's what you think. Not the case. Well, what is it? Only a little cheaper for half size portions. How much cheaper? Like a few dollars? Like, let's call it 20% cheaper
Starting point is 00:29:57 than the full size portion. So you're getting half. So people are making that decision, save a little bit of money, but the restaurant's going, we're not going to cut our profits completely. So they go Well, they're selling half the product. That's what you would think, right? Instead of a 10-ounce steak, you get a 5-ounce steak. It should be half as much, but they're saying no because it still takes them the time and the effort and everything.
Starting point is 00:30:15 But I thought it was interesting, based on our conversation with what Omar was saying about smaller portions, that they just put a note on the menu. Everything on the menu is available. I think a lot of people are going like, I'm not going to eat all this. I don't know why you don't bring it home and eat it over the next four days. Because there are some people that just don't like leftovers. I don't really like leftovers, to be honest. and I don't like
Starting point is 00:30:36 wasting food at all so I will do it but it's not my favorite just because I ate a big I'll store it in your cheeks yeah exactly I'll store it in different parts of my body too
Starting point is 00:30:44 I'm a gerbil with meatloaf I have a sandwich under my bra right now all original ideas are gone these days it's all about the reboot they don't stop until every good movie
Starting point is 00:30:54 and TV show is rebooted remounted reimagined or sequelized and there are just a couple that were announced recently Jennifer Garner has agreed to a reboot of 13 going on 30
Starting point is 00:31:01 which I never watched and don't care about but if you care about RoboCop. Amazon is officially doing a reboot of RoboCop and it will be a series. So that's something that people can look forward to. And Tom Cruise will
Starting point is 00:31:14 now take part in a long-anticipated sequel of Days of Thunder. Oh, great movie. And they are in negotiations with Tom Cruise. Cole Trickle? Who will reprise his role as Cole Trickle. This is also the movie where he met Nicole
Starting point is 00:31:30 Kidman, who I forget he was married to for 11 years. So this is going to be put together by Paramount and of course the last time he did a long awaited sequel it made a lot of money billions of dollars and got a lot of Oscar nominations so I'm sure they're trying to find
Starting point is 00:31:46 anything in the Tom Cruise arsenal that can be rebooted, sequelized or otherwise I feel like Days of Thunder of all of the movies that guy did was kind of underrated as far as some of the other ones it wasn't his best performing movie I haven't seen it in years but I remember thinking
Starting point is 00:32:02 when I saw it that was cool seem cool never seen it never seen oh Al you would hate it great I'll watch it
Starting point is 00:32:08 you gotta watch it immediately brand new hour of the show starts now
