Klein/Ally Show: The Podcast - HOUR 2- Clickbait, Klein's Tattoo Talk and MORE

Episode Date: September 4, 2026

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-Rod.

And it's got it Friday! Hell yeah, long weekend Friday. Labor Day weekend is here. Pack your patience. Omar likes to remind you, traffic will be officially bad from now through the end of the year. So, packed that patience yesterday. It took me three hours to get from the Valley to our event in Newport Beach. And I'm such a sucker that when it said to me, we found a shortcut.

We found a shorter route. You want to take it? It took me off the 5 and onto a bunch of side streets. And then I sat while some weird train proceeded to slowly move tankers of God knows what in front of me for 30 minutes. There are some days in Southern California where it feels like a loony tube. Like it feels like two people are walking across the street with glass. Like every possible comedic obstacle is in your way. I don't even know what city I was in, to be honest, because at this point I was delusional.

But it was the slowest moving train. I thought the whole idea of train tracks is you can move faster because you don't have to deal with traffic. Yeah, but I think those freight ones, they don't really care. Oh, my gosh. And I don't know what it was, but they just shut that. There was just all roads closed, and that little train was just chug-chugging along at the slowest possible pace. And then it would just stop for like five minutes and not move, and then it would pick up again, move slowly. And I was like, I guess I won't make it to the kegger this year.

Yeah, that drive, too. I feel like you have a few different options, all of them bad. But you have to make this choice, and then you always wonder if you made the right choice or not. I know I made the wrong choice, because usually the answer is just stay on the 405, stay on the 5. Don't try to get clever, and don't try to go like 19 different side streets to make up a minute or two. It's going to always come back to bite you in the ass. But in my head, as I was sitting in my car fuming, I had Omar's voice going, just pack your patience, client.

Pack your patience. And it actually calmed me down, made me feel good. By the way, Ali, big news for one of our listeners who got a new job. But bad news for us. He won't be able to listen to our show. Hey, what's up, guys? Sad news. I may or may not be able to listen to you guys in the morning anymore.

Your boy just got started his official job as a school bus driver tomorrow. Wow. Wow. That's even more of a reason to listen. School bus driver is you and you got to tune out those kids. You got 40 kids in the back screaming and stuff. Can't you listen? I feel like half the bus drivers, van drivers out there have one AirPod in and they are

listening to whatever the hell they want to. I would imagine that would probably be not allowed if you're driving children. There's probably different rules. But even in the front of the bus, it's not like all the kids can hear what you're listening to. And I don't know if I should put you guys on in the morning with these kids. I mean, we do have a racist white lady. We got Omar talking about thongs. And we got Prine who loves Diddy.

And for all we know, what if Johnny's Pism sprinkles out the speakers and come into these kids? I don't know, man. Let me know. I would like it if you did continue to listen to the show because we need people to listen but

the reality is this is probably not the right thing to have on in the school bus yeah really among kids at all I actually just learned

my kid was listening on the way to school today and is now saying bull crap at school because that's what Jake said yeah

so you know they really are sponges Jake is the gift that keeps on giving right absolutely he is this hour on the show we'll get into

some click bait man versus machine as humans battle robots to see if we still stand a chance in this futuristic world, and we get you your tickets to some Halloween horror nights at Universal Studios Hollywood, and that's all coming up this hour on Carol Q.

Alright, Internet, you've got answers, or you've got questions, the Internet's got answers, whatever the case may be, it's time for us to go ahead and tackle some of the biggest mysteries online as we get into your clickbait this morning, and this is a good opportunity to learn something you probably didn't know, it'll be a great conversation starter, if you meet someone at the bar this weekend and need something to talk about,

Just bring up this. It's time for Clickbait. Here we go. Bait. It's a travel weekend. Bait. Which means you could be driving somewhere, could be flying somewhere. And now they are saying there's a new rudest thing that people are doing as it pertains to air travel.

It's a new rudest thing. And you don't want to do this because if you do this, then you're part of the rudest. And this was determined by people that work in the airline industry. A new rudest thing. Now, once again, these are things that customers are doing, flyers are doing, travelers are doing. You're probably doing it as well, and it's rude. Maybe you don't even realize it's rude. But for the people that work at the airlines, work at the airport, work on the airplanes,

they said that this by far has now jumped as the new rudest thing that anyone that is traveling is doing. So stop doing it. I just can't imagine there's anything new. It's all the same stuff. It's the people who put their hat box in the overhead bin. Oh, yeah, take up that whole overhead bin with a stupid hat. Then there's the people that bum-rush the aisle as soon as you land. They're the worst as well.

These are all things we do. People who have their sound on without putting headphones in. I guess I'll go with gate lice. Gate lice. Describe what gate lice are. So when your boarding group is not until 6 or 7, but you decide you want to hover around the gate area until it's your turn to board. You're not staying seated.

You just feel like you need to hover around and create a big traffic jam for no reason. They do seem. And try and get in earlier than your seat group. The people that work at the airport, they do seem the most annoyed when they make that announcement for the 10th time. And they're like, once again, if you are not active military, please go back to your seat. There is no reason. We will all. They do seem that that's what makes them the most agitated in their voice.

Because they do have that kind of permanent annoyed voice when they make the announcements. but that one it does seem like they make that one a lot yeah but there's also so much difference with how they announce the seating groups and stuff so people feel like okay it's not boarding group c yet but i'm just gonna get up because i feel like i need to be first in line after the bees go up and they feel like they have to take control themselves all right ali says gate lice is the most annoying thing according to people that work in the airline industry and they don't like it about us or don't do it this weekend if you're traveling uh jake i'm gonna say playing your music, like, without headphones.

Right. Yeah, I mean, that's, once again, a classic. It's been going around for a while. That is another, that's another one now where they've been, they made a rule of one of the airlines. Yeah, one of the airlines will throw you, I think they'll throw you off the plane or something like that. Well, it's in the air. Yeah, well, that's a real consequence. By the way, I'm a big fan of throwing some people off the plane in the air,

just to prove a point, because I don't believe that anyone takes a lot of that stuff seriously. And throw their bags out. No one puts their phone in airplane mode because no one takes it seriously, but if you start doing some random phone checks and tossing people off the plane, trust me when I say most people would be in airplane mode. Or toss the phone off the plane. Yeah, you don't have to throw the person, just the

phone. No, not airplane mode. Who am I going to text when I land? Omar, what's the answer? A couple of months ago, we had somebody who's a politician, I think, or maybe works for the airline that wanted everybody to dress up, but I think people are going the opposite

way and wearing sweats and not wearing flip-flops and they're putting their bare-ass feet everywhere. I hate that. So I think that's still happens i think that will always happen and you look at those old school timey videos when everyone was getting on the planes and they were in three-piece suits they were sharp especially it was going to on an airplane or going to a movie yeah they dressed up like

tuxedo style and i do think it's one of those things where if the airlines started making it feel a little fancier perhaps they gotta bring the smoking lounge back yeah i think you need the smoking lounge they needed that you know they would like roll that ham up and down the aisle and carve it we need to get that a thing oh yeah and i think that was a thing even in like coach like at the time, they were like, all right, tonight we'll be having some Coach Ham to come down and carve you off a piece like you're at Lowry's. No one, Allie is right, by the way. Really?

Yeah, Gate Lice has now jumped so high on this list. It is the thing that they're saying is ruining the entire travel experience and making the people that work for the airlines absolutely hate their jobs. And I think it makes the whole boarding process longer, from what I understand. Like, please, they ask you, please look at your boarding documentation. And if you see you have a boarding group, just wait until your group is called. But I know that everyone does it because we're set up for failure. There's a limited amount of, they make 15 announcements and they say,

Yes, that's why. If you'd like to check your bag, we will not have enough space for all the bags. No one volunteers, as per usual. So then they go, all right, now let's board. And, of course, everyone wants to be the first person. Because you want to make sure you have room for your bag up there because of the hat box people. It changes everything. So there you have it.

Don't be that person if you're traveling this weekend. We've got to take a quick break. We're back in a moment. When we return, some things that happened. Obviously, Ali had a big gender reveal. You can see the footage up right now. Over a quarter million views already of Ali's big gender reveal. The first ever gender reveal via bong in the history of gender reveals.

And that's up at our Instagram right now, Klein Ali Show. But some other things that took place, good, bad, and otherwise. There's a lot of questions about secondhand Cindy and that stutterer. And we'll get to all that and more after this on KROQ. KROQ, we are Klein Ali Show. We've got lots going on. Oh, Anna's being congratulated now that we know that she's got a boy inside of her. Thank God.

Bring a blue shirt for me. Hey, Anonymous, you're on KROQ. What's going on? Hey, guys. I just wanted to say hi. I was at the kegger yesterday. I'm the one who made out with her brother. I wanted to let you know that yesterday at the dunk tank, there was a woman there named Hori Tori.

and I guess she's a porn actress. Hold on. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. We had a person named Hori Tori? Yeah, I met her. What? And she said I volunteered to go in the dunk tank and she went, I think, after Jake. When did this happen?

Why am I hearing about Hori Tori a day later and 3,000 miles away back in the studio? Yeah, Johnny was telling me about her beebs. About her what? Her beebs. Yeah, Klein, I tried telling you yesterday, like, dude, come on. Dunk tank's where it's at. Why are you saying boobs like that?

Because they're boobs. Why are you saying that, Allie? That is a weird way to say it. Yeah, no one likes that. Stop doing that. You're ruining boobs. You really are a mom. Wait, wait, wait.

Hold on. Explain this. Let me hear you. Question. You met her at our dunk tank? I did, yeah. She actually taught me how to throw a baseball. Was she on our guest list, or was she a friend of the band Slightly Stupid?

Do anyone know? No, she was just there. Yeah, she was with us. She was with us? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Vanessa, you put someone's name, Hori Tori, on the guest list, and we didn't know about this? I guess.

I didn't know. Hori, Tori? Is that what it was on the list? I'm so disappointed. All right, that's cool. What, was she talking to you about your brother, or did she have sex advice where you guys kind of clicked? Yeah, I don't know. We connected.

I was trying to dunk her in the dunk tank, and I was missing. And she was like, no, girl, I'm going to coach you right now. And so she taught me how to, like, you know, place my hand and everything. And then as soon as she told me how to do it, I threw it, and she went in. She sucks at the dunk tank. I had no idea this was even going on, and I'm so devastated that I missed this. I thought I knew Jake was in the dunk tank for a while, and then I knew that one of the Bud Light bros was up there.

One of the videos that we have up on our Instagram, Klein Alley Show, has some footage of Hori Tori on the dog tank. Is that her professional name or her birth name? She said it was her nickname from her friends. Oh, cool. Our last name is Hori. What would she name our daughter? She's either going to be a teacher or going to porn. She hasn't figured it out yet.

All right, well, did you have fun at the Endless Summer Kegger? Yeah, it was awesome. And, Allie, I did meet you. I asked you if you wanted to make out later. Ah, that's right. I remember you before we took a picture. And I said, no problem. I heard two people make comments to Allie.

I'm sure more than a few did. One of them was the nicest thing ever, and it may have been that comment right there. Allie, would you like to make out later? And then I heard some guy went up to Allie. This was early in the event and said, you take the world's worst pictures. You look like absolute trash. But you look way better in person. Yeah, but in person you look better.

That's so nice. And then he just walked away laughing. I know. It was a real weird thing. I didn't even have a chance to say thank you. Well, listen, I know we don't know your name because you want to be anonymous, but your story of making out with your brother accidentally is getting numbers up on the Instagram, so thank you for sharing that with us.

We appreciate you. Of course. I love you guys. All right. I love you, too. I wish I had known about this whole situation. Yeah, there was a couple of weird things that took place yesterday. There were a lot of questions about things as well, including we had a couple of things we were supposed to do.

That stutterer, Marie the stutterer, who won herself into the thing because she was going to introduce the band Slightly Stupid on stage. Slightly, slightly, slightly, slightly stupid. She showed up, and then Vanessa couldn't track her down in the crowd, and then apparently she sent Vanessa a text saying that she was real nervous. And we go, great, the stutter's going to take forever. That's the point. The more nervous she gets, apparently the bigger the stutter gets.

And Vanessa was texting with her back and forth, but she was hiding in the crowd and refused, I guess she refused to come up and introduce the band? Is that what happened, Vanessa? And does she stutter in text message, too? Like, I called her a million times, and then I started texting to her, and she's like, no, I'm so scared. I'm also really high.

I don't think I can do this. And I was like, well, hold your hand. Come on. You can do this. And then I'm like, okay, we'd love to meet you. She ghosted me. Oh, man. And it's slightly stupid.

So anyway, she was there, supposedly, but we didn't see her, so that didn't happen. We couldn't do that part of it, which sucked. The keg stand was kind of a fail as well because the hotel had certain rules about their liquor license. So we're going to have to push that keg stand maybe to our next event. What about the clam slam lady? We saw them. I met the clam slam lady and her friend who won the clam slam.

And her friend demonstrated to me in front of a group of people off to the side what the clam slam was. But also wouldn't go on stage because she said she was wearing the wrong shorts to do the clam slam. They both were wearing tight jeans. I was like, how are you going to slam in these? And she said, we're not prepared to slam. We can't clam slam. And we said, but she was honored that we kind of named the whole event after her story. And they were a lot of fun, too.

And then. There also wasn't a lot of room to clam slam on the stage. Yeah, it was packed. Pedals. So many pedals. Yeah, so many. The real issue of yesterday, and I believe above all else, and thank you, Slightly Stupid. You guys were amazing, as expected.

And, you know, your fans are great. And thank you for doing our little thing. And we appreciate all that. But the whole planning of this gender reveal became such a chaotic mess because we all went out searching for a certain bong. It's impossible, apparently. I don't know when the last time you bought a bong is. But there's bong stores on every street corner. So they must be selling a ton of them because they're everywhere.

Yeah, but they all look exactly the same. Right. Everything now is that we were trying to find a— It used to be creative. Every bong—the no bong was like. Right, exactly. It was like snowflakes. And you could never find two bongs or someone.

And now every bong is clear and glass and about two feet long. And we were looking for a three-foot bong. We wanted a three-foot minimum bong. And we wanted something that was not clear so that we could hide the color of the smoke. Because our plan was, and we're not good at science, but we figured out there must be a way to take a bong hit and make it either blue smoke or pink smoke. And we went through all of these different theories of how to do this. All of them didn't work, by the way. It's impossible to do that.

I don't know. I'm sure some scientists could figure it out. Which I don't know why we figured out how to dye food with food coloring. Very simple. And we haven't figured out how to dye smoke. Well, you can dye smoke, but not the smoke you'd want to inhale. Right, exactly. And the problem is smoke bomb smoke is full of sulfur.

It smells terrible. And the band was all excited. They were like, yeah, we'll take a bong hit and blow out the smoke into the air and reveal the gender. That sounds cool. And then we realized once they agreed to do it, we have no idea how to make this happen. So it was a lot of running around trying to find bongs. Vanessa calling head shops, calling smoke shops. calling all you know and venice has never bought a bong before so that was a whole thing and johnny

never bought a bong before we ended up uh thank god sluggo was nice enough to loan us his old bong and he didn't care if we spray painted it so we spray we had our bong figured out but then at the last possible second we realized that we couldn't figure out a way to color the smoke so it's going to be a real letdown well we were trying to figure out a way to make the smoke that i bought out of this like kind of it's like it looks like a fire extinguisher and it looks like smoke we're going to try and have that come out of the bong the problem is if your face is near that bong or the smoke at all your entire face is covered in either pink or black so it's really hard to get it off to try to practice to make sure it worked because the band uh slightly stupid said we're

happy to help with this gender reveal we'll take the bong hit on stage we got no problem with that we're gonna do that anyway then we were planning on doing that regardless of a gender reveal oh yeah those guys smoke like crazy oh my god they lit up the biggest blunt before they went on stage and uh and ali did a practice and it looked like she was one of those people that got caught shoplifting where the dye pack exploded all over her. It looks like I gave a smurf a beach. Yeah, Ali got blue cockied

like big time. It was all over the place. And it was harder to get off than they advertised. So I was like, we can't make the band covered in blue, you know, or pink or whatever it was going to be. So we ended up just doing a standard go on stage, take a bong hit, and we will reveal, you know, and then we'll spray the

stupid stuff in the air. And it's funny because in one of the videos Vanessa, I guess, hers misfired. So she has nothing that comes out of hers. And then as I was trying to get the crowd excited for this, I said that you guys will be, no one cares about gender reveals because they're played out, but I said you guys will be a part

of the first ever bong gender reveal in history. And the crowd got excited about that, and then that's when Jake decided to pull a real Jake move and go, actually, I looked it up, and there's been three other ones. Into the microphone, and the whole crowd, he cooled, I've never seen a crowd get cooled off fast.

Yeah, well, you shouldn't lie. The crowd cooled off so fast. I don't know why you're lying, man. And once again, half the crowd is there for us. Half of them are probably there for the band. So, you know, I'm trying to make them care about this gender reveal because some of them don't even know who Ally is and they don't care. And frankly, I love Ally, but I don't care what she's having for a girl. Right, and some people just want to see Slightly Stupid on stage taking a giant bong rip.

And I respect them because I even suggested, I was like, you know, you don't have to take a real bong hit if you don't want to. And he was like, Miles was like, I would be, everything that I stand for would be in shambles. He's like, I'm going to bring my own pre-show bong. I have my own bong. Yeah, he had it all ready to go. So he was ready, and we go out, and the crowd's pumped, and we're like, you guys are going to be the first part of the first ever bong gender reveal in the history of gender reveals. And then Jake, for some reason, decided now is the time.

Because the truth is important. To grab a mic and go, actually, I looked it up. There's been three other ones. Very entertaining. And then everyone just slowly stops caring, and then he takes the- Even Miles was like, what? He takes the hit. Yeah, yeah.

He takes the hit. I think he's appreciative of the honesty. He blows it into the air. Allie reveals to the world that she's having a baby boy, and people got excited temporarily. He sprayed the smoke and kind of blended it with his bong smoke. And then Vanessa also had a canister that did nothing. Did not, did nothing.

And then the band proceeded to congratulate me for the next 25 minutes about my son. And I'm so upset because all I really wanted was a son, and I got two daughters. But I had to tell them that I would never have sex with Allie, guys. And I said, do you understand? This is not my baby. You think I'm having sex with that woman?

You think I would have sex with that baby? I kept saying, look at this woman over here. She's covered in blue. Look at her boobs. I said, maybe Hori Tori over there in the dunk tank, but not this woman. So it worked out, and it was a great time. It was fun. And secondhand Cindy was there, and Blind Charlie was there.

The Bud Light Bros won on Gary. I saw the Momtender walking around, a lot of the Regos. And we have a new show hang that we'll hopefully be able to tell you about next week. So that's that. K-Rock line alley show. It is Friday before Labor Day weekend, which means in less than 20 minutes, the banger bus will officially begin and you get to control the music you hear on K-Rock. Assuming you bring us bangers. Sounds like she's being thrown off the bus. That's right. So get ready. All bangers for the rest of your morning into your Labor Day to Z weekend, which will be happening all weekend on K-Rock.

So get your bangers ready. Already a good list we've got that people have been sending in all morning long. Quickly, Lewis, good morning. You're on KROQ. Hi. 800-520-1067. What's up? Morning.

Morning. I want to thank you guys for yesterday. I met Blaine Charlie. Yeah. And we talked all night. All night. We have a lot in common. And then Johnny put the KROQ stickers on my leg.

It was amazing. And we took a picture with you holding my leg. It was awesome. Oh, my God. You're the guy with no foot. Yeah, that's me. One Leg Lewis? Yep, that's One Leg Lewis.

Yeah, One Leg Lewis was all upset because he really wanted to, oh yeah, you won your way in because we're talking about people missing a body part and you were missing your leg, I think, right? And we did get a chance to meet you, and he was hoping to get a picture with One Arm Gary, but we couldn't find One Arm Gary anywhere because he disappeared into the crowd. But yeah, it was very nice to meet you, One Leg Lewis,

and we hope to see you at future events. You're always welcome. oh wow that's amazing hung over but still went to work all right she's uh she's a real hero that one and i respect you one leg lewis for showing up to an event with one leg and you still wore shorts yeah guy went shorts you could have hid that he could have worn pants and blended in i'm proud yeah yeah the one leg uh situation it was cool i got to uh that thing was heavy too titanium felt way better quality than that thing oh gary brought in here when he gave you that injection yeah he was telling me the story of when he told his girlfriend this is his wife now but his

girlfriend at the time about his leg they were in bed together and all of a sudden he just started stroking her face with his leg i have a uh a policy about people and tattoos and and i went against my own policy and i never i never ask anyone anything about their tattoos because it will almost always backfire and i've watched it happen ally to you a million times usually on the air it's so funny when you'll bring up a tattoo and someone's like oh that's that's the death right it's always some sad it's almost always a sad story that completely changes the vibe and makes everything incredibly uncomfortable yeah but then you get a random story that's like i was wasted and i like mario randomly you get that but it never happens and yesterday like a stupid idiot

i went against my own my own policy of never ask about a tattoo and i was talking to some person that was there and she had a ton of tattoos and for some reason i said oh like that butterfly What's the deal with that? And that was the stupidest. And she goes, and then all of a sudden, I can just see it in her face. Her eyes get all like walled up with tears or whatever. And she goes, that's because of my dead grandfather. And I'm like, God damn it.

You liked butterflies? What a pansy. Jake thought it was so funny. It was funny. Oh, great. Because I just realized. And I would just ask anyone who has a tattoo. I know a lot of you get tattoos to celebrate people that have died or sad, tragic moments.

have a backup story ready. You can have your real reason. Oh, it's their fault? Yeah, it is. Give me a lie. Have your real reason you got the tattoo. That's fine. This is commemorating the time that my sister died or whatever. That's fine. Commemorating when my sister died. But then when someone asks you

about it, then just say, oh man, I was wasted in Vegas and thought this would be fun. Or don't ask. That's another option that's easier than making the person make up a second story. I usually don't ask. But I would imagine if you have tattoos, A lot of times, people do like to be asked about their tattoos. Well, you know, you can just say, I really like your tattoo.

And then they can choose to tell you what it means or not. If they don't want to get into it, they can just say, thanks so much. I got it a couple years ago. And you're like, oh. Well, what do you think? Because you've got that gross tattoo on your stomach that got all stretched out. I do. You want to see it?

No, I do not. It's getting even more stretched out the second time. Oh, God. I really like that blob on your stomach. Where did you get that? It's my dead grandfather. It's him. That's what he looks like currently.

That's why I got it there. We'll get to your news in just a moment. I was just informed by Vanessa, and I apologize if you were only listening to the show today because you wanted to win your way into Ohana Fest and or Ocean Way. But because we are officially kicking off that Labor Day to Z weekend in the banger bus, we're done with those tickets for now. That was my bad. Sorry. We do have other tickets to give you, though, and we got them coming up later this morning.

I think we have some extra Universal, I believe, that we didn't give away earlier this week, and also Monster Energy, SMX World Championship Playoffs, Dignity Health Sports Park on September 19th. We'll get you into both of those things coming up later this morning as well. Ashley, hi, what's up? Hi. What can we do for you? I heard you didn't like the fact that I put 92 on my arm

because I was on my butterfly tattoo. Oh, you were the one with the tattoo? It was me with the tattoo. Oh, sorry. RIP to your grandfather. It's okay. I really like that tattoo, so I'm glad you liked it as well. Yeah, but I mean, in general, if people comment on it,

do you tell them the whole story about your dead grandfather, or do you have a backup story you tell so you don't bring down the mood? No, but I need a backup story now, so if you have a good idea for me to tell, because I just tell the truth most of the time. Allie, give her the backup story. The butterfly with the 92? Yeah, commemorated the summer I slept with the 92 guys.

Okay, yes, I used to be a sex worker in Vegas, and 92 was the amount of men that I slept with before I decided to change careers. That was your tramp stamp? Yeah. Oh, I love it.

It's my new tramp stamp. Your grandpa will love it. He'll be so proud. Nice to meet you. Thank you. I think I smoked weed with this woman, allegedly. You did.

We did as well. You did. That was fun. Allegedly. Thank you for that, whatever that was. Allegedly. What was that?

I was real high. What did I smoke yesterday? A sativa. Oh, good for you. That was nice. I like that. I'm so jealous. All right, anyway,

nice meeting you. Thanks for being there, and sorry about your grandfather. Let's get into your news now. Then a brand-new hour of the show will officially begin, and the banger bus is rolling through the KROQ studios with the songs you want to hear. Grab your Adderall. It's time for ADD News.

You know what's a fun word? Spatula. Spatula. So glad you mentioned spatula, because when someone attacks you, and you don't have a real weapon nearby, you have some quick choices you got to make. What's the most dangerous thing around me

that I can defend myself with. And you've got to hope it's enough to save your life. And there is a man that was at an In-N-Out drive-thru, and he's now being hailed a hero because he was able to subdue a woman who was yelling, swinging around a big sharp wooden stick, attacking people in the In-N-Out. This was up in Lake Elsinore.

And he basically fended her off with a metal spatula. And that's how it sounded. Wow, that's actual audio. yeah that's his impression is spot on it's pretty well that was betty hana well that's apparently any spatula in and out spatula dose of violence at the lake l a double double dose of violence at the lake elsinore in and out a woman with a five foot stick trying to attack employees i just hear like banging like super loud banging coming from the inside of the lobby I then look up and I see this lady overhead smashing, like, what looked like a baseball bat.

20-year-old college student Luca Opperman was in the drive-thru waiting for his food. He propelled himself out of his car and through the drive-thru window and picked up a spatula. I'm holding the spatula. I'm wielding my spatula, right? And I'm, like, yelling at her. I'm like, get out of here! Like, get out of here! What the crazed customer didn't know, Opperman is a former gymnast and freestyle trampoline athlete. What? Why does that make him dangerous? You get out of here, you.

An off-duty police officer, a Navy SEAL. There's a lot of things you go, what they didn't know is that he's a trampolinist. Yeah, he knows how to jump. And then he deep-throated the spatula. It's incredible. It is official after this week, Burning Man is no longer cool. I think this has been slowly happening for a while now, as every festival gets its soul slowly sucked out of it and taken over by influencers. But in this case, it's being taken over by old rich guys.

Burning Man has become a wrinkly sausage fest of aging millennial and Gen X men. People, specifically men, in their 40s and 50s want to do acid and feel young and cool again. So they head out to the desert, and that makes it officially not cool for everyone else. a decade ago, one in three people at Burning Man were in their 20s. Now it's one in ten people that are in their 20s. And it sucks because I've always wanted to go, but now...

Oh, you would be the official nail in the coffin for that one. Exactly. It can't happen. It's like it's never going to come back. That was like the one year that Coachella... In the history of Coachella, I think they had one bad year and it was the year that... It was the year I went. It was Allie's first year ever going to Coachella. Because I say I've always wanted to go to Coachella

and then every year was kind of getting less cool, less cool, less cool And then when I went, it was like, this is the worst Coachella ever. They couldn't, like, sell it out. It was a whole thing. And that was, like, Ali's year. So there is a kind of a breaking update about this whole Lindsay Clancy murder trial. They are, the judge is about to announce a mistrial. So after all of this, they are in day seven of deliberations.

This jury has not been able to reach a verdict. And weird stuff was happening yesterday. So they came back. They sent the judge a note. They said, we still can't come up with a verdict. But there's one specific juror that we have a problem with. And then they said, basically, this one juror is the holdout. And this person pretty much wants to convict.

But everyone else says that there's enough reasonable doubt. This person is not listening and doesn't want to change their mind. So the judge interviewed every single juror and talked to every single one. And they all pointed out this one person. Sounds like they've got a Jake on their hands. Totally. They've got a stubborn Jake on their hands who's like, no, I wanted to go to jail and fry. It doesn't matter what happened or why.

Hell yeah. So now they're saying for a third time with a, quote, heavy heart, we cannot come up with a verdict because of this person. And the defense lawyer was like, get rid of the person and swap them out with a new person. There's all these alternate jurors, right? And if you swap one out, we would all be fine and we'd all be able to go home. But the judge won't do it. So because he won't switch that person out, now they're about to announce this mistrial. They have like one hour to maybe figure it out before then.

But it's looking like all of this is going to happen all over again. Happy birthday wheelchair. That's right. Beautiful. We celebrate you. That's a good tattoo. Get a happy birthday wheelchair tattoo over that butterfly. You should do it.

We will get into a brand new hour of the show in moments. And it's officially time for your banger boss to get you into your holiday weekend.
