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 gotta 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.
This is the world famous K-Rock.
Oh yeah, you ready? Kick off your summer.
Perhaps you have not been having a funner summer like we've been encouraging everyone to do.
I believe this upcoming weekend a camping trip is going to be happening with Alley and Vanessa.
This past weekend I pulled my all-nighter in Vegas and attempted to accomplish another thing on funner summer list.
So we'll get into that this hour on the show, but we would love to help you have a funner summer.
and we would love to do that
by sending you
to Universal Studios Hollywood
Fast and Furious
Hollywood Drift
opening summer 2026
guess what
it's summer 2026
so let's get you
onto the ride
that they've been working on
for a while
and we will of course
give away those tickets
right now
to the 20th caller
unlike the people mover
this ride opened on time
I know
it opened when they said
it would open
it's amazing
all these other things
that are supposed to happen
that are much riskier
to humans
and they're able to do it fine
When the government's involved, we'll push that back in a couple of years.
No one will know.
But you need a roller coaster built by a certain time.
Boy.
They were doing test rides for that, too, and then they just stopped.
They were on it.
They were like, we got to fix some stuff still.
Here's a person, Allie, that is super excited because they claim that everything that we've given out on this show has made their life better.
And they don't win everything, but when they do win, they wanted to appreciate the victory.
And I'm going to say there's something nice about winning from us because it does feel good to win on the radio.
And then when you get to actually go somewhere and experience something.
When there's follow through, it always feels good.
Yeah, it feels.
Because you kind of feel like people are just going to lie to you and say you have tickets to something and then you never get the email.
But we do send stuff and you do go to stuff.
We do some stuff occasionally.
And this guy wanted to say he appreciates it.
Hey, how's it going, guys?
You guys are awesome.
I appreciate all the love and everything.
You guys got me Wild Rivers tickets, Cabana, and a $100 food pass.
I felt like a rock star.
You guys make everything awesome.
So that's just one person that won something from us and said that we make everything awesome.
So now it's our chance to make something awesome for you.
As we say good morning to Kimberly in Moreno Valley.
Good morning, Kimberly.
Good morning.
I'm going to give you, technically these tickets are yours, but let's just go ahead and test your Fast and Furious knowledge, shall we?
I'm going to give you three Fast and Furious movies.
One of them is made up.
The other two are real.
Figure out which one is made up, and you'll get to experience this Fast and Furious ride at Universal Studios.
You ready to go?
I'm ready.
All right.
Fast and Furious, Tokyo Drift.
Fast and Furious presents Hobbs and Shaw.
Or Fast and Furious, the LAX People Mover.
Oh, that's very, very hard, but I'm going to go for the LAX People Mover.
Yeah, that one is not real.
It's not fast, but it's plenty furious, that's for sure.
So hold on one second.
Enjoy yourself some Universal Studios.
You will be there.
Universal Studios Hollywood.
Tickets are as good as yours, and enjoy that new ride, all right?
Woo-hoo, thank you.
I'm excited.
You're very welcome.
Hold on one second.
I believe that's four tickets.
Four tickets.
Whoa, look at us.
The generosity knows no bounds here at KROQ.
Another chance to win those tickets from us every single morning this week.
We'll make that happen for you.
So it's time for your strokes on KROQ.
What is the one thing that you were doing wrong that is letting criminals know that your house is very robbable?
This is a question that we'll get into.
It's one question and one question only.
And it's time for Clickbait.
Here we go.
Clickbait.
Crime reporters have revealed how burglars choose which homes to target and the one mistake that you are doing that is potentially inviting them right inside your front door.
So think about that for a second.
We have an answer.
It must be true.
It's on the Internet.
Of course, you want the answer because you don't want to get robbed.
And as you know, there's no shortage of robberies that are happening all over Southern California right now.
So be on the lookout.
I would imagine this information probably applies to most robberies.
So if you ever had your house, apartment broken into, that's a terrible feeling, mostly because there's a mess.
I mean, it sucks when they steal your stuff.
But I think usually it's that, for the most part, burglars are very messy, and they leave a big mess behind.
And then you've got to clean up the mess, and you have missing stuff.
Well, I would love to just have one burglar that respects the home while they steal from it.
Put a coaster down if you're going to rob me, burglar.
So anyway, according to, once again, crime reporters, they reveal how burglars now choose the homes to target and the one mistake that you're making to invite them in.
Allie, we'll start with you.
God, it's so hard because I feel like nothing works.
There's nothing that deters the burglars, you know?
Even if you have a home security system, I don't think it matters at all.
What if you have a please don't rob me Klein Allie show sign?
That is the only thing.
It's the only thing that keeps them away.
I think if you don't have any cars in the driveway, that is a target.
No cars in the driveway is a target.
Because they make it seem like you're gone a lot.
If there's no cars in the driveway during the day, oh, there's nobody home.
Easy to rob, especially if you go out of town a lot.
No cars in the driveway equals target.
And what is the mistake that you're making?
Posting about your vacations.
Ah.
No cars, plus you post on Instagram, I'm on a beach.
Yes.
Interesting.
I'm out of town, just to let you know.
Jake the Nerd, what is the, in your opinion, I'll give you the answer in a moment, what is the one thing that makes your house more robbable?
And what is the thing that you, the mistake you're making?
I think the old school mistake is that you've got too many old newspapers at your doorstep.
That was like the old thing, but people don't read the newspaper anymore.
So maybe it's just like a pileup of mail.
Yeah, just a signal that no one's really taking care of the place.
This modern-day version of that example could be packages, perhaps, from Amazon.
A few of them still sitting there.
I feel like no one leaves them there, though, because they're going to get stolen.
But they could go.
I could porch pirate them.
But guess they're not home, so I could go inside.
If I could steal this much from the porch, imagine how much more I could get from the inside.
Yeah, imagine the goodies inside.
Omar, what do you think it is?
What makes your house more robbable, and what is the mistake you're making that is inviting them right inside?
I think, yeah, along the same lines of Ali.
Anything that's going to make your house look vacant and like nobody's home.
Like I usually do a little timer on the light so it turns on at night.
So you want to make sure that your house looks lived in, like somebody's there.
Do you just have it turn on once or do you have it turn on and off like throughout the night?
It looks like someone's getting up to go to the bathroom and making snacks and stuff.
No, Morris Coyote, don't rob me.
Turn it on around 8 o'clock.
It's a strobe light effect.
There's a party going on.
Omar, it's an outside light or an inside light?
Inside.
But I have outside lighting, too.
So a light goes on inside your home?
Yeah, the hallway light, yep.
Whoa.
That's so cool.
I didn't know you could time those lights.
You guys are all on the right page here, which is obvious, is that for the most part, they would much rather rob a home to tempt eat.
It's much easier for them.
They'll still rob you, but it's easier.
But the answer is, so they obviously look for homes that appear that no one is there.
And by that, they will oftentimes do this method.
And they talk to a lot of burglars.
And they say the simple method is just to knock and see what happens.
If they don't hear any footsteps, they don't hear any TV, there's no voices inside the house,
they pretty much know that the coast is clear for them.
And the biggest mistake that we are making is that when you hear someone knock at the door,
no one ever wants to encounter people, so what do we all do?
Ignore.
We all hide.
We hide and we try to not make any noise.
So what we are doing is basically...
Like I do with trick-or-treaters.
Right, the same thing you do.
And what you are doing is accidentally now hiding because you're going,
oh, I don't want to go.
There's someone at the door
that's probably trying to sell me solar.
I'm just going to hide.
If it's a burglar,
they are going,
oh, I don't hear anyone in there.
There's no footsteps.
I don't hear any talking.
I guess we can go ahead
and smash a back window.
And the amount of people now
that are being, quote,
robbed while home,
or at least they're entering
or trying to break in,
it's because they didn't want
to answer the knock at the door.
Wait a minute.
So the thing that you're doing
that makes you a target
is just they knock at the door?
That's how they case the place?
No, it's you being silent.
You should make noise
when that happens.
Can't come to the door, right?
You should say something.
Sorry, can't come to the door right now.
Right, but the first question was what makes you a target?
If they don't think you're home, you're a target.
But then the mistake you're making.
Just in general, if they don't think you're home.
They don't think you're home.
Any house that appears that you're not home for whatever the reason.
So all of our answers are correct.
All the reasons are right.
They've got a few ways they look at it.
But if they don't think there's any action or activity.
But when they finally do knock, which is usually what they'll do.
Because knocking, there's no crime in knocking on a door.
There's no reason to say they're going to rob it.
They could be trying to convert you.
They could be giving you a, you know, as I said, selling you solar.
So once they knock, the mistake that we're all making is we're hiding instead of making a lot more noise.
We should knock back.
I like to hide and then go on the ring thing and be like, hello.
Who are you?
Just leave it at the door.
Leave me.
Please turn around.
All right, there we go.
We've saved your life with a round of clickbait.
We're back in a moment.
I was given the task of pulling an all-nighter, and I decided the only town I could possibly do that in would be Vegas.
It involved a mushroom chocolate bar, gambling, and a lot of landline calls to Hawaii and Alaska.
And we will get into all of that after this on KROQ.
Hopefully you're having a fun summer.
We made it our mission around here to make it a funner summer because apparently fun is becoming harder and harder to get these days.
No one's having it anymore.
No one's prioritizing it.
It's gotten too expensive.
So did you have it?
You know, listen, I don't know if pulling an all-nighter, I think in theory is fun.
I guess if you're doing it because you're having fun and you happen to be up all night until the sun comes up, it's fun.
But if you're free to determine.
If you're forcing yourself and looking and going, all right, I just need to stay up for two more hours.
It can be fun.
I tried a few different things.
The answer is I was successful because I had to do it.
I have a bunch of video, which I'll be posting today on our socials.
I'll let you stay up.
Well, so a couple questions, and then I'll answer that.
Were you guys expecting that I did a 24-hour, because there was two different schools of thought.
Was it a 24-hour challenge that I was up for 24 full hours, or was it that I pulled an all-nighter and stayed up until the sun came up about 6 in the morning?
That sounds about right.
That one.
Yeah.
Okay.
I got confused because people were wishing me luck on the staying up for 24 hours thing,
which meant for me, I made it my plan, even though I was in Vegas for two nights, that
I was going to make Friday night my all night night because I was already up at five in
the morning for the radio show on Friday and I thought it'd be easier for me to stay up.
Why would it be easier if you've been up since that early?
Because I thought that if I had to do it on Saturday and I wanted to sleep in and let's
say I woke up on Saturday at, you know, noon, I'd have to stay up again until noon. I thought
it was a 24-hour staying awake period. Oh, why did you think that? I don't know. I don't
know why I thought that. And listeners confused me on DMing me. So I was like... I thought
an all-nighter just meant you stay up all night. So I did it the night I got there because
to be honest, and I should have done it on Saturday. It was stupid because Saturday...
Yeah, I don't know why you did it the night you got there. Well, here's the thing. Because
I didn't get to Vegas. I ended up getting to Vegas until closer to like 6.37. So already
it was kind of... I pushed everything later. I didn't make a dinner reservation until 10.30.
What did you do when you got there?
Everything later.
What I always do.
I lose a bunch of money before I even check in.
That's my tradition.
By the way, I can't.
That's my tradition.
I can't win a goddamn.
I just can't win in Vegas anymore.
You lost all weekend?
Everything.
I got every single ticket I bet on the World Cup.
I mean, you want to see these?
I can tell by your energy this morning that you didn't win in Vegas at all.
Messi to get one goal.
Argentina to get at least one goal.
First to have to have one goal.
None of those happened.
Argentina to win in real time.
Argentina to win in penalty kicks.
They're inclined to stay up 24 hours.
They're all like that.
So that was day two.
Day one, my plan was as follows.
I decided to try to mix two things I've never tried together, which was Adderall and mushrooms.
Oh, interesting.
What the hell?
I knew about the mushroom bar, but I wasn't sure how long that would keep you up because you have to have something to kind of jolt you awake.
I brought some of the mushroom bars so you could see what I was partaking of, show and tell.
This is my magic mushroom bar.
So this is the Magic Mushroom Bar.
Now, the Magic Mushroom Bar.
It's a hero bar.
Oh, be your own hero.
I was my own hero, guys.
And so the plan was, and read the ingredients, Allie, because you can read all that's in there.
So my plan was get to Vegas.
Don't even start doing, I didn't want to get there and start doing fun stuff because I knew I probably didn't have it in me to let that last all night long.
So I said, I'm going to treat the first five, six hours on there just like a regular human being.
I'm going to have a couple of drinks.
I'm going to have dinner.
I'm going to gamble a little bit.
I'm going to relax.
And then after dinner, like hopefully I was thinking if I start at 1030.
How do you gamble on mushrooms?
That sounds scary.
Not well.
I'll tell you that right now.
I would not.
Like that wouldn't give me confidence.
That would make me terrified.
But the thing that it did because the mushroom, it gave me a kind of more of a sustained energy.
It didn't make me tired.
It made me, like, all of the colors of the casino, it's nothing but colors, are 10 times brighter, 20 times brighter.
Did it make the time go by really fast?
Slow, very slow.
Oh, damn.
So painfully slow to the point where at one point I walked outside and it was hot.
At 2, 3 in the morning, I want to say it was still 100 degrees in Vegas.
And you were with your wife?
Only for part of the night.
She did not, so her and I had very different plans for this trip.
She was excited to do a relaxing trip to Vegas where she could do some shopping and go to a spa and maybe sit by the pool.
And I said to her, zero of the things on your plan list are on my plan list.
I need to stay up all night one night.
And she said, I'm not doing that with you.
I said, that's fine.
I'll take you back to the room and then I'll go back out again.
She was not a fan of that, by the way.
But she knew how messed up I was because of the mushroom bar that she was like.
So she didn't have any of this?
She didn't want to have any mushroom bar.
God, why would you want to be with somebody on mushrooms tripping on mushrooms?
She didn't want to be on mushrooms.
Oh, okay.
That was why it made it easier.
I was going to say, you either have to do it, too, or you have to just like...
But when she hung out, I'll give her credit.
On Friday night, I want to say she didn't end up going back to the room until close to 2 something in the morning.
And does she gamble?
Yeah, she likes to gamble, too.
Oh, she does?
She likes to gamble, too.
Oh, okay.
That's good.
So you guys are at the blackjack table together.
Not blackjack table.
Texas Hold'em table game.
We're playing that together.
I'm over at roulette for a little bit.
I'm playing over that.
I love watching the spinny wheel of mushrooms.
I could watch that wheel spin for hours.
Fascinating.
Did you forget whether you won or lost most of the time?
Well, at one point, I started taking the guy's chips next to me and placing bets with them.
And he said, I think you're putting bets now with my chips.
And I said, well, I said, those look delicious.
And I said, well, they're the same color.
And he looked at me and he goes, no, they're not at all.
And he had purple chips next to him.
Oh, this was for roulette?
And I had yellow chips next to me.
Yeah, everyone has different.
They couldn't have been any more different in color.
And I was like, well, and I said, sorry, I'm really messed up right now.
So then at one point I go, I take her back to the room.
I go back down to the elevator and now I'm walking around and I do, I do about two or
three laps around the casino and I'm feeling really good because the mushrooms are kicking
in and I'm awake and I know I only have about, in my head, I only have three hours to kill
until I'm 24 hours.
You took two or three laps.
It was probably like 30 laps.
I was walking around for a while, but then I walked outside and they had, you know,
a waterfall situation
going on outside the hotel and I sat there
and I stared at this waterfall.
What felt like, I thought it was hours.
I was staring at the waterfall because I was out
there and it felt so good.
The warmness felt so good
and I was energized but I was calm
and I gave myself some weird ass pep talk about life.
I don't remember what it was.
But I was like, and then I went
back in and I was like, alright, now I'm ready to call it.
I'd really love to know what you told yourself.
Dude, I remember thinking some stupid
That's it, man.
I was thinking some stupid thought about how like the waterfall is cascading down like every challenge that I've ever had to face.
It was like the weird – I went in there feeling so motivated and thinking to myself, now I can go upstairs and go to bed.
And I walked back in and I went out there at like 3.15 a.m.
I come back inside.
It's just 3.17 a.m.
I thought I gave myself an hour-long pep talk.
I was out there for two minutes apparently when this thing happened.
So then I realized now I have no more money on me.
I've lost all my money gambling.
Oh, already?
And it's Friday night?
It's Friday night.
I have no money on me, and I left my ATM card intentionally, but also annoyingly, up in
the room, because I don't like to have access to my ATM card, because I have a bit of a
gambling problem.
So now I have to make a decision.
Do I go upstairs, and do I potentially wake up my wife while I'm still up?
And, you know, she would have not let, if I had come back in and woken her up and then
said I have to go back out because I can't go to sleep, that wouldn't have, like, she
would have been, it would have been a problem.
Okay.
So I said, I should just not go into my room.
But I also had, when you have no money and you're walking around Vegas.
Oh my God, yeah.
What do you do?
No money.
You just have to walk up and down the strip, I guess.
So I did leave and I started, but the strip is a very.
Or you could get a second dinner and eat.
It's weird.
I wasn't hungry again, but I also had that weird feeling where the strip, you can be
feeling great, but also something can spook you really easily there, especially at that
time.
You can get real weird real quick because that's just how the strip is now.
so I walked out and then I was like I can't leave I got really scared so I went back in
and I just and I and I sat at a slot machine and luckily there was a lot of like groups of horny
moms in town for the Backstreet Boys concert so there was all the back streets were back yeah the
back streets were back so there was all these like groups of like you know moms that were just like
you could just tell just like mom mom it's our time mom weekend mom weekend and I ended up having
like a couple of really like weird fun conversations with them and i told them i was like i'm on a lot
of mushrooms right now and they're like we're thinking about trying those what do you think
and i said oh i'm on a hero bar and they said where do you get it and i even i brought it from
la i was like i think it's somewhere on the strip go find it and uh next thing i knew i hadn't
gambled didn't lose any money they did bring me some drinks i kept drinking and i walked upstairs
at like the sun was starting to come up at like 5 45 or you know in the elevator so you just talked
to moms for like an hour and a half? Talked to moms for a little
bit. The other mom friends
were probably so annoyed. Who is Linda
talking to? She's talking to this weird guy
on mushrooms. I was able to buy
stuff at the gift shop because
I was able to charge stuff to my room. That was the only thing
that was my currency. And then
I went back and then in the morning
my wife said, what time did you get home last night? And I was like,
oh, right after you. I didn't tell her I was up all night.
But you told her you had to do an all-nighter?
I told her I'd do an all-nighter and she said
you couldn't do it.
but the next night this is where things got good because i you guys you know i was all annoyed
about this resort fee thing that they said oh you know you have to pay an additional 55 a day
but don't worry it comes with a bunch of crap you're never going to use which is gym business
center digital downloads of uh magazines and newspapers and uh unlimited landline calling
to alaska alaska and hawaii i said i'm not going to let them get away with this resort fee crap
so i called a bunch i made a bunch of calls the next day was this when you were saturday hung over
Saturday when I woke up.
And I was up, you know, before 11.
I didn't really sleep much.
And this was neat.
And it was easy for you to go to sleep?
By that point, I just kind of laid in bed and passed out.
Yeah, I passed out.
And are we all just cool with word of mouth here?
I have a video of different times of the day with clocks.
With clocks I shot in the casino, too, for you assholes.
I knew that's how you would say it.
I'm just saying.
Yeah, I was on my watch.
Well, you said on the way out, I'm going to document everything.
And I was like, okay.
And then I saw, like, one post of an airplane and a cocktail.
I thought you wanted me to share on the air.
I didn't think you wanted me to document a line.
You said you were going to document it.
I was like, okay, I was waiting.
It's all documented here.
So here, this is me calling, taking advantage of my resort fee.
Hello?
Hi, aloha.
Aloha.
I'm calling from Las Vegas.
How are you?
Doing good, thanks.
This hotel I'm at has unlimited landline calling to Hawaii as part of my resort fee.
So I'm trying to take advantage of that fee.
Oh, wonderful.
So I'm just calling Hawaii and also Alaska as well.
awesome because the only other things included in the hotel room
resort fee included digital downloads of like usa today and i'm not going to do that so i'm
trying to get my money's worth i hear you yeah so figured this will probably unfortunately i can
hear you make it worth my while so i just wanted to call and give you a very pleasant
mahalo and aloha from las vegas hey right on thank you so much and uh what's going on there
in hawaii right now i realized that they didn't really want to have chit chat with me and they
didn't really care but they're all so nice they were friendly yeah we're working nice nice do you
guys like mainlanders or not really you can be honest of course oh good everybody we don't
discriminate all right because i am a mainlander but i have been to hawaii and i'm a big fan of
The banana bread.
Oh, yeah.
We have the best banana bread.
See this nice conversation I'm having?
I'm charging this to the hotel.
Those MFers think they're going to hit me with a resort fee that I'm not going to use.
I would love if you misread this and it was not included and you have a huge bill.
Well, I made a lot of calls.
For all of these calls.
I made a lot of calls.
This one was my-
How many times have you misread fine print or not read it at all?
All the time.
All the time.
I mean, a lot of times.
How sure are we that this is included?
It's said in bold letters, this is part of your resort fee that you have to pay.
Yeah, well, when you look into it, because I did for a while, and they told me Crisco is the key.
But thank you for taking the call, and I'll probably call back a few more times until I check out of this hotel.
All right.
You enjoy your day.
Now, I remembered, Allie, while I was calling Hawaii, that you were upset about your recent luau experience there.
So I did call another Hawaiian luau to complain about your complaint about the luau not having what you wanted at it, which was more hot girls dancing with fire.
There were no coconut bras.
Right, so I did bring...
They were all very close.
So this is me calling now another Hawaiian luau.
Hi, have I reached Hawaii?
Yes, you did.
Aloha, this is the Queen's Waikiki...
Now they transferred me to a digital assistant right out of the gate.
This idiot needs a bot.
Are you real or AI?
Hello?
AI assistant.
Oh.
Ah, I was looking for a human person.
I understand you'd like to speak with a human team member.
while i'm the virtual assistant i can certainly take a message for you take a message we'll be
happy to follow up with you to get started may i have your first and last name this sounds so
authentically hawaiian thank you i appreciate that i'm here to help with any questions you
have about our luau was there something specific you were looking for assistance with today
yeah uh on the pictures on the side show a lot of fire dancing and stuff a lot of spinning fire
but the reality i feel like when we get there it's just a bunch of kind of people in big dresses
blowing into horns and shells.
Would you agree there's not enough fire?
Our show features a variety of Polynesian performances,
including the traditional fire knife dance,
which is a highlight of the evening.
It's a full experience that celebrates many aspects of Polynesian culture,
not just one element.
Would you like me to help you with anything else today?
No, the reality is I'm just calling you from my hotel room in Las Vegas
because I have unlimited calling to Hawaii as part of my resort fee.
That's great that you have that perk.

my lesbian friend ali who went to a luau recently and said there weren't enough coconut bras do you

performers our show focuses on authentic polynesian performances which is coconut bras
is there anything else i can help you with today uh no that'll do it thank you so anyway it didn't
go great anyway most of my most of the rest of my trip to vegas before the game started and i went
down to the sportsbook and lost the rest of my money was uh calling alaska and hawaii that was
it here's me calling hi is this alaska this is wonderful i'm in las vegas right now uh calling
from my hotel room uh apparently i have a part of my resort fee is unlimited calling to alaska
and hawaii and i don't really know anyone there but i wanted to take advantage since the resort
The fee's not cheap, so I just wanted to say hi.
Hello.
And they were very pleasant in Alaska as well.
She sounds like a bot, too.
Yeah, she was real, though.
And she said, you know, I mean, she goes on and on.
Sounds kind of flirty.
Ali, I'm telling you, I think I had a chance with this girl.
Really?
If I had my girl in Anchorage, Alaska.
And, you know, they're banging me out for $55 a day to use a fax machine, which I'm never going to use.
So I decided I might as well call anyone that will answer in Hawaii or Alaska.
I got you.
You got to talk to somebody in Alaska.
Wonderful.
Where are you?
Anchorage.
Nice.
Are you at that time of the year where there's no sun forever?
No, no.
So that doesn't actually happen.
It's like six weeks up on the very, very north slope where they don't get any sun for six weeks.
But otherwise, in the wintertime for us, it's just like your regular, you know, getting dark at 5 or 6 p.m.
What?
I know.
How boring is that?
Everything we thought we knew was a lie about Alaska.
Alaska has lies.
That's what I thought.
That's like all I know about Alaska.
I was like, that's literally what everyone thinks.
And then she goes on to say this.
It's one place at the tippy top?
Yeah, that's it.
Yeah, they also believe that we live in igloos and ride polar bears.
You do?
That's what I said.
Well, that part's true, right?
Of course.
Yes.
Okay.
All right, well, thank you for taking the call.
And where did I call?
Sammy City Diner, yes.
What is your specialty there for anyone who may be visiting?
Chicken fried steak.
Man, that sounds great.
We make it here in-house.
And that's made with polar bear?
If you want to tell people that, I won't deny it.
Okay.
So that's one of my many calls to Alaska as well.
They're endangered, but have chicken fried polar bear.
I do have a copy of my folio for you to look at.
and you can see just how many calls were made.
That's my way of really sticking to the resort fee,
really sticking to that.
When I did ask where the business center was,
I had six different people that told me they had no idea.
I don't think even the people that built it
probably know where it is.
There's some other guy on mushrooms who's stuck in there.
I may dispute that.
We've got to take a quick break.
Doesn't that sound like a funner summer was had?
Sounds like you were miserable.
That's funner summer, yay!
That was funner.
I want to see Billy Joe tonight a little closer to home.
They've got his side project, The Cover-Ups.
As you know, it's his cover band.
They're playing a show at the Roxy.
Apparently, already a line of people outside waiting to get into that one right there.
So, actually, I would say Green Day is the side project.
The real bread and butter comes from The Cover-Ups.
Billy Joe Armstrong.
And that is happening today, later today.
If I just covered their Green Day songs.
It would be just doing covers of different Green Day songs.
Probably do it good.
I've seen that guy's popped into karaoke bars before.
Seen people sing Green Day and hopped on stage.
He always does a good version of his own songs.
So the cover-ups, that's happening tonight.
I'm sure you probably, if you're not already in line in that crowd of people, good luck getting in.
It's a hard ticket to get.
An easier ticket to get would be the one from us.
We have them for you starting next hour to the just-announced festival happening in Santa Monica
where you'll see the Killers and Sublime and Jack White and more,
and you'll have chances to win your way into that next hour on the show.
It's a Monday morning.
We're still recovering from the weekend.
It has hit me that even though some people are now accusing after hearing my story
that I did not pull an all-nighter
because 408 says an all-nighter is something
that means you didn't sleep at all.
You must have stayed up and then not gone to sleep.
Even at 6 a.m., I thought I could stay up 24 hours.
He said you have to stay up and go to the next day.
I think you're good.
If you sleep a couple hours, that's fine.
Guys, I'm so drained right now.
Yeah, I don't think you did it right.
I definitely didn't do it right.
I don't know if you really did it.
If you did it the way you said you did it, it counts.
I did it, but I didn't do it right.
That's for sure.
And some people are still recovering from Friday's show.
Today, listening, because I was not at work, I was just listening to the dude with the arm.
I almost sharted myself.
I mean, it was laughing so hard.
Then I got back, and I was able to watch it.
It's incredible.
You guys are amazing.
Oh, my God.
All right.
Take care.
He's talking about one-armed Gary revealing his new arm that he got.
If you want to see that, there's a clip up right now on our Instagram, a Klein Alley show of what the arm looks like.
We can't possibly do justice just by talking about it.
You must see it with your own eyes.
It is.
As Omar said, it's the world's finest technology from the 90s.
1940s and you have to see it to believe it uh it was not something we put together in the quote
prop department here at k-rock because we don't have that but man it's worth checking out and i'm
glad it brought so much people so much joy right now let's get into your news then a brand new hour
of the show will begin grab your adderall it's time for add news the world cup may be over but
the disciplinary action is just now beginning fifa has announced that they are opening some
disciplinary proceedings
following some of the fighting that was happening
on the field just after Spain
won the World Cup. If you saw, there were
several people on the Argentina side that
were fighting with some
of the people on the Spain side, you know,
in those little, like, pink shirts.
You know, those little, like, over things that some of them wear.
I don't really know if they're, like, on
the team or if they're just, like, cheerleaders.
But they're, like, dressed in outfits, but then they have
these little, like, vests
on. Yep. Vanessa can explain
that. Vanessa, who's she talking about?
So the Argentina people were fighting with the people in the little vests.
Yeah. And now there
might be some... They're like the ball boys or something.
I think so, yeah. But they celebrate
like they're players. There are other players
they're just not in. So that's how you...
So they were like the I'm not in vests? Yeah.
Okay. Well, they were all fighting. It got
physical. Now there might be some disciplinary
action. There might be some, quote, sanctions.
So we'll find out. But
on the layman's side,
the feds are also
announcing they have seized
1,000 different internet domains
that were illegally streaming the World Cup.
Oh.
So not just the final,
but all of the World Cup matches
throughout the whole process
from the beginning,
they were watching without authorization
1,000 different websites.
So they are saying
they're going to find those people
and track them down,
which is going to be interesting.
But overall,
it was something that brought us together
and nobody brings us together
like Tom Cruise.
And this was just another highlight
from the world cup where tom cruise talked for two and a half minutes about how the world cup
has made the world better football is a language spoken without words a force that unites people
that turns strangers into friends and reminds us of what we all have in common
The ability to drink and spend money.
Today, only two teams remain.
España.
Y Argentina.
He is an American man.
He really over-pronunciated that.
Yeah, he really did.
But it got people excited.
But these stories,
Now, these stories belong to each and every one of us.
Let us celebrate each other.
This is football.
This is unity.
And this, this is greatness.
I felt like a Cirque du Soleil show was about to start.
It was so epic.
You think that was a better pep talk than this pep talk we got on the go, Len?
Good afternoon, Clinton and Ellie.
You guys aren't stupid.
You're the greatest show on radio.
So, anywho, I'm the FIFA guy to Spain.
I don't want to smush them.
I just wish the best that they win over Argentina, not England.
Anyways, let's go.
They win.
Let's go, España!
Vanessa!
España!
Let's go!
Similar excitement right there.
I think it was, yeah, comparable.
All right, Jennifer Finch of the band L7 unfortunately passed away this weekend.
And if you're familiar at all with L7, they were a very influential rock grunge band in the 90s, an L.A. band, a girl band.
Jennifer Finch was the bassist.
She was very loved in the community.
She was one of Dave Grohl's exes as well.
And she was so loved that when the band announced she had an aggressive form of brain cancer, people started donating like crazy to her GoFundMe.
They'd raised over $400,000.
But then less than a week after they announced the diagnosis and put up the GoFundMe, she passed away.
This was right as the band was about to start on their farewell tour.
That was going to start later this year.
Of course, I think they're making adjustments now.
But Tom Morello, Garbage, Violet Grohl, Courtney Love, a lot of people are pouring their hearts out to the great Jennifer Finch today because she was only 59 years old.
And she had already beat cancer like 15 years ago.
So she's a pretty incredible woman from what I was reading about.
And then here's this for Laziness Klein.
What if you could get dressed without having to physically do anything?
Here's an idea.
Automatic clothing that does the dressing for you.
An idea that came to a Stanford researcher while riding a bike in the rain and thinking,
gee, I wish my rain jacket could crawl itself onto me.
There's a fine line between crazy and genius.
Genius, this guy's genius.
And just plain stupidity.
I thought about that when I was laying in bed, too.
Even sometimes I like to sleep naked.
And the idea that I have to get up and put on pants or underwear if I feel like leaving.
What if it just crawled up onto you?
It would just crawl up onto me?
Yeah, that was the idea.
Though strange, the innovation could help people with unique jobs or needs.
Like what?
Well, I was about to buy that thing on the infomercial to put your socks on for you,
but apparently it's only meant for old people or people that have muscular problems.
Old people, I can see.
That's probably it, though.
Yeah, but if you're able-bodied, you can have that thing to put your socks on for you.
Remember that thing?
You step into it.
Isn't that hard to put your socks on?
That's annoying.
I mean, how lazy are we?
We can't even dress ourselves anymore?
Cool, because I think you preset the socks and you step into it like a mousetrap and it, like, shoots them on your foot.
No word yet on what the cue is for Pants On, Pants Off.
I suggest a clapper.
There we go.
He's got jokes.
All right, well, there you have it.
That's news doing what news does.
This is a good hour to be listening to K-Rock for a few reasons, but primarily because this is the hour we get you into a brand-new festival that was just announced in Santa Monica.
So, in your future, as we give you a funner summer and celebrate Jason,
the great stretch of months that are July through November,
we get you to Santa Monica September 26th, The Killers, Jack White, Sublime, and more.
Those tickets coming up for you this hour right here on KROQ.
Good morning.
