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 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.
Starting point is 00:00:34 Hell yeah. Good morning. Welcome to your K-Rock. We are Klein Alley Show. Nice to meet you. Thanks for coming back for more. I'm Klein. That is Alley over there.
Starting point is 00:00:41 Morning. DJ Omar Khan, the audio sniper. You know him as Jake Znerd. What's up? And in the back taking the calls early and often and giving you stuff. We got Postmaster Johnny, a.k.a. Gay Leno, and he's sitting next to producer Vanessa. Vanessa, are you in the boogie phase of your six months? We're super in the boogie face.
Starting point is 00:00:58 Yeah, Vanessa wants you to know. Where does it come from? She never gets better. It's all the children's are sick. It happens. The back-to-school flu, whatever they call it. And Vanessa, even though technically she claims she's an adult, has gotten the same exact thing as children all over the place. And she says that it's good for her because she's building up immunity.
Starting point is 00:01:14 That's right. So it's a good thing. She's drinking an orange Gatorade with vitamin C. That's right. So we're together again. A full-force show today. So you can hold that against us if you damn well choose to. we have for you this hour access to our endless summer kegger in less than an hour we get you on
Starting point is 00:01:28 that standby boarding list so you can go see weezer in boston and again right here in southern california and if that were not enough this is the hour we need your ideas the dank tank baby is back turning ideas into high profit it's been a while since we've done a dank tank too long we used to try to get one of these on once a month and it's been a long ass time so start thinking of your ideas and remember to get them to us when we officially open up the dank tank as we turn those ideas into much, much more, including your access to go see Slightly Stupid. And you better believe, if you are coming up with ideas, you would probably like to see Slightly Stupid perform at our endless summer kegger.
Starting point is 00:02:03 So that'll happen this hour on the show. Come back in a moment, solve the internet's biggest riddles once and for all. It's clickbait time after this. If you need us and we love the interaction, the phones, the text line remain the same. 800-520-1067 or 323-TIP-BOLI if you nasty on KROQ. internet design two reasons two reasons only clickbait masturbate we can only do one of them on the radio so let's get into it it's time for your clickbait here we go i think this first one is a little targeting towards me but i'm excited to find out the
Starting point is 00:02:38 answer because apparently if you're like me and you are living in a quote cockroach infestation two more found yesterday by the way and i've been trying to clear the deck in the morning so she doesn't find the bodies. But last night, she found two more. And they're all kind of in that upside-down tummy rub position, but they're kind of like shaking their legs, having seizures. But apparently this uncommon, or excuse me, this common household item actually attracts cockroaches.
Starting point is 00:03:05 And I'm so glad that I have the information here because this is not going to be on me. This is going to be my wife's problem, and I can't wait to rub this in her face. Hmm. But what is it? This common household item. A common household item that is actually attracting cockroaches.
Starting point is 00:03:19 You have it in your house? Since you mentioned your wife, it's got to be a skin care product or something. Okay. I'm going to go with any kind of high-end skin care. Ooh, high-end skin care. I don't know. Maybe there's some ingredient in there that they love that's like, you know, cockroach aphrodisiac kind of thing. It's that salmon sperm everyone's rubbing on their face these days.
Starting point is 00:03:37 Yes, and they're like, where's the salmon? What do you say, Omar? This common household item is actually bringing cockroaches into your home. I mean, I'm going to go with, you know, the standard, like, some sort of sticky syrup situation. Ants love it. Roaches love it. Ooh, syrup. Everyone loves syrup.
Starting point is 00:03:57 Jake, you live in a shack, but yet you have crickets and ants. You don't have cockroaches. Correct. How many times do you think they go in and they're like, mm, I'm good? Like when you walk into a store at the mall and you're like, mm, I don't like the store. I'm trying to hope that crickets stop doing that. What do you think the answer is? I don't think it's something that usually these types of clickbaits are something like, oh, I can't believe it's this.
Starting point is 00:04:22 So you never think it's like dish soap or some kind of cleaner. It actually attracts cockroaches. Well, you're all wrong. The item, and I'm telling you right now, there's no one more responsible for this item in my house than my wife, is cardboard. Really? Cardboard boxes from deliveries. Oh, no wonder. You guys have a million of those.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Non-stop. And they sit around inside the house all the time. And it's because they are damp. They release some sort of a smell from whatever that cardboard is. Cockroaches love it. They just love eating it. Love it. Cardboard is a food source for the cockroaches.
Starting point is 00:05:04 Really? Since the cardboard is absorbent, it can gather odors from other pheromones, too, which makes it even a more attractive surface. What are we doing, guys? The roaches are loving the cardboard. Why don't we mail things and something else? We can't. We're addicted to it.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Every day there's something from Amazon. And they love it. Yeah, that's what they want more than anything, cardboard. That means every Amazon warehouse is crawling with roaches. Of course. They have to be. And so some of them maybe, who knows, they could be chilling in the box. God, now I'm so happy.
Starting point is 00:05:32 I'm so proud of my ability to break down a box and put it right in the recycling when I open it. That could be like Trojan horsing those cardboard boxes right into your house. Think about that for a second. Why is this cardboard box carrying itself into my house? So, I don't know. That's interesting, and I think that that may be the cause of the cockroach problem. Did this naturally come up for you, or were you searching for retaliation? Vanessa found this one, and I appreciate her for that because...
Starting point is 00:05:57 Because you've been getting a lot of crap for that one, Josh. I can't wait. I really can't wait to tell this because she thinks it's... Last night was one of those, we have to move. She said, we have to move. And I said, we're not effing moving again because of the goddamn bugs. We've moved because of bugs too many times. We're not going to stay ahead of the bugs.
Starting point is 00:06:11 Yeah, I know. They're just going to catch up to you again. But now that I know it's her delivery addiction, that's the problem. Good to know. Put that in my back pocket. For her to not do anything. You just wait until I drop that on you later. Allie, I'm going to give you this next one because it is back to school time.
Starting point is 00:06:25 Okay. And it's one more clickbait. Here we go. Here's a clickbait. This is clickbait number two right now. Okay. Teachers share the telltale signs that they know a parent actually cares about their kid. So the teachers are judging you just as much as they're judging your kids at back-to-school time.
Starting point is 00:06:43 And they're saying, what is something that teachers can tell immediately about the parents? And then they say, all right, this parent is... This parent cares? This parent cares about their kid. This parent is a good parent as opposed to... It's just like they're deciding which kids are good kids and bad kids. Well, because there's a parent who doesn't care, and then there's like a medium care, and then there's too much care. Right, like I'm not going to be the first to stand up and volunteer to be, you know, room parent.
Starting point is 00:07:06 That's not going to happen. yeah that's a rough and they still need them apparently they can't have enough they won't be happy till every goddamn parents a room parent and the room parents just sending a bunch of annoying emails that's what they do yeah can you donate five bucks for this can you do the chaperone this field trip pasta wednesday whatever it is it's it's a lot i'm not doing it but if you're a room parent god bless you you got more time than i do and you're better you probably care more than i do well i think a lot of those room parents too they'd be sign up as like a good faith thing but then it's also i just want to see what my kid is doing in class right keep an eye
Starting point is 00:07:36 This is the way the teachers claim that they can tell pretty confidently if the parent actually is good and cares about their kid. Two hugs. Double hugs. Double hugs when you drop off. Not just one, just another extra little squeeze because I actually love you double. I feel like parents, teachers probably hate that because they like the quick advice. They don't like that long link. Oh, my God, the rules that they have around that.
Starting point is 00:08:01 Omar, your wife's a teacher. You're supposedly a good parent. You should know this one. I try. I think it's going to be knowing your child's peers, their friends and stuff. You know their names and, you know, kind of like you know how to, you know, interact with them. Right. You don't say things like, hey, what's up, doogly eyes?
Starting point is 00:08:19 Or whatever. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. Got it. I'm shorty. Don't play with that short kid. Have fun.
Starting point is 00:08:24 Hey, there's your friend, Moleface. Hey, Moleface. Good to see you. Jake, what's... Happy birthday, wheelchair. Jake. Jake, what's the answer? I'm going to say, like, depending on what you have for lunch,
Starting point is 00:08:39 what they have for lunch, if it's like a healthy lunch or whatever. Softly packed lunch. I thought of that, too. Softly packed lunch. And then you just throw an Uncrustable in there. Here you go, Kathy. Or it's just an empty lunchbox. Right.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Oops, I forgot to put stuff in there. Just clearly the parents' leftovers from going out the night before. This is Subway. One of you's right. One of you's right. Oh. Congratulations to, obviously, the man. Omar, yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:01 When the parent is familiar with the child's friends, and talk to their child's friends and listen to their, and they have a good relationship with the friends of the child too, that is the indication that they're actually a good parent and care about their own kid. What if your kid doesn't have friends? Well, that's an alley problem, I guess. K-Rock, we are Klein Alley Show.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Up for grabs right now, access to the Endless Summer Kegger, also known as the Clam Slam. Slightly Stupid will be there. You should be there as well. And all we need from you is your ideas as we officially open up a new round of the Dank Tank. Just to go ahead and remind you, because everyone's short-term memory is fried,
Starting point is 00:09:34 Thanks a lot, Weed. Here are some of the many ideas we've received over the years. Good morning, guys. I think, or I used to think, a brilliant idea was burrito tape. I hated going to Chipotle, and, you know, you take a bite and it all falls apart. So I was thinking translucent, flavorless tape that you could use on your burritos, on overstuffed tacos, on, like, a messy burger. Brilliant.
Starting point is 00:09:57 That guy calls his own idea brilliant for burrito tape. I still don't believe it exists, but he did bring that to us a few months back in the Dank Tank. I think the technology of making that, it has to be highly adhesive but flavorless and edible. I think that's tough to do. Someone pointed out you could just do double tortilla, and that would solve that problem. Or use other pieces. Yeah, but then it's too much tortilla. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 00:10:17 It does change the ratio. Then there was this idea. So what if they had cereals mixed with other cereals? So my idea is for a hoodie, like a sweater, and the top of your sweater has a hole for the woman's ponytail or mouth. Okay, picture this. Picture, instead of an ice cream truck, you'd have a beer truck coming around to the neighborhood and to the park, and then you see the parent running out to go get their sips, their beers. So clearly there is no such thing as a bad idea.
Starting point is 00:10:50 We will take yours now at 800-520-1067. Invest our actual money into the ideas we like and tickets so you can officially come and hang with us at the Endless Summer of Kegger if you are on the Dank Tank. Here we go. My idea is called the Blunt Etiquette Book. Lego or Kinect set that you can put together and you got your pipe or ball. It's called the Dank-O-Meter. Bug repellent, if they could make it smokable. Instead of having a tree in your mirror, we're going to have like weed leaves hanging, bro.
Starting point is 00:11:17 It's viking for your mouth. We should put popcorn out of business and start serving mac and cheese. All right. First idea out of the gate today, Allie, is from Sky, listening right now on Line 4. Good morning, Sky. Welcome to KROQ 800-520-1067. You're in the Dank Tank. Officially pitch away.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Hi, sweet dibs. Sweet dibs. My idea is grocery store daycare. Oh, for your kids. So you just drop them off at, like, a little play place and do your shopping? Yeah. Isn't that what that little area is with all the expired stuff in the back? I know that rack well.
Starting point is 00:11:56 It's right by the bathrooms. Yeah, you just go ahead and leave them back there. Why don't you go ahead and alphabetize these expired snacks. Those big kitchen doors? Yeah, yeah. So don't go back there. That's where the butcher is. But, you know, sit right here.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Interesting concept. You could also put them in that little beer walk-in closet thing. Oh, that's a good idea, too. Keep them, especially in these hot days. Yeah. All right, so you say add some sort of a... Like a pen. Like a kid valet at a grocery store.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Yeah, they just get so bored and frustrated, and I'm just like, I just want to put you somewhere so I can do my shopping in peace, and then I'll pick you up. It's also annoying because anything they ever want to grab is something that... They're such suckers for the end of the aisle. Oh, man, and they know. Those stores are smart. They put all that stuff there knowing it's going to be like...
Starting point is 00:12:39 Let's put all these Hot Wheels right over here. Right, what can I do to shut this kid up? Okay, go ahead and throw it in the cart. Well, and then a kid is constantly talking at you while you're looking at an aisle and trying to make a very important decision, you know, about which soups and pastas you want to buy. All right, hold on one second.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Sky brings us the grocery store daycare. The ideas could be good, could be bad. We say hi to Noah on KROQ. Welcome to the Dank Tank. Noah, what do you got for us? Hey, so instead of Waymo, I was thinking like Weedmo. They're green, self-driven cars that everybody knows you're getting high in it, just looping Snoop Dogg and Cypress Hill all the time.
Starting point is 00:13:14 and then you would have like a fast pass through Del Taco when you're in this safe, self-driven weed car. Oh, wow. So this is not to deliver you weed. It's for you to just get in and hot box. Just hot box and cruise around and it's painted green so everybody already knows you're high. So when you pull into Del Taco,
Starting point is 00:13:31 they're just like, go for it, man. Smart idea. That's a great idea. It's a custom made, you know, because we are in the world of the driverless technology that's only going to continue. So now you have specific ones. you don't necessarily have anywhere you need to go
Starting point is 00:13:44 but it's just you want to pick up and maybe you have an option. Well, smoking weed and driving, I mean, it was such a great part of it. They have those new Waybos, the vans though. Imagine that. You can get in there with five or six strangers or friends. You can just go for a little smoke sesh, drive you around the beach. No one's got to get high and drive and then you can, it'll know
Starting point is 00:14:00 right away to take you to, as you said, like a Del Taco. It's great. But is there any legal problem with that? Like, you can't drive while you're high but you can be in a car, can't you? I don't think they would be upset if you were to smoke weed in a regular Waymo now, I think one of those humans
Starting point is 00:14:17 would jump on and be like, hey, cut it out. We see you because they're spying on you. They're watching you? Oh, yeah. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, they have eyes on you. I mean, it says that. They'll tell you stuff. So if you were to hook up in the back of the Waymo, it would stop the Waymo?
Starting point is 00:14:33 Yeah, you should test it out and see. I will. Interesting. So if you're snorting coke back there doing illegal They'll stop the ride? It'll tell you, and I think it says it can use any sort of footage against you for criminal reasons. Cool. Yeah, but I know that they're, like, eavesdropping in on you, and they are watching. I think that's very clear.
Starting point is 00:14:51 NARC car. It's a NARC car. Yeah, shut up, NARC car. One, those cameras I'm sure you can cover up. It's the Dank Tank. Hi, Diaz. Hi, Profit. We say good morning now to Berkeley.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Hi, Berkeley. You're on KROQ. How goes it? So, my idea, you know how there's full self-driving Teslas all over the road? And most people like to avoid them because they're either slamming on their brakes or cutting in front of them. So I like to have a blue status bar on the back of all full self-driving Teslas that lights up. So when we know they're full self-driving, we can just avoid them. Yeah, that's great.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Like a cab that's open has that light on top. Right, a special light to let people know this one's driving itself right now. Yeah, that's a great idea. It's like the student driver sticker. Let me say that to John. You're on the Dank Tank. John, any idea is welcome. We will pick our favorite and instantly invite you to the endless summer of kegger.
Starting point is 00:15:39 What's up, John? Yeah, what's up? Good morning, Sweet Divots, everyone. Sweet Divots. So my idea is a protein-infused vape. Oh, Klein loves it. You know, there is a three-second period in the day where I'm not getting my protein in, and I could. You're only at 300 grams.
Starting point is 00:15:57 I could vape in the rest of it. They figured out how to protein everything. Why have they not figured out how to protein vape? Vape with protein. And why stop at protein? Why not go creatine? You go a whole thing. It's a whole line of smokable.
Starting point is 00:16:07 At least you don't have to taste that powder taste. Jake tells me, and you want to talk about what a weirdo this guy is. He doesn't even put, he takes electrolyte powder. He doesn't put it in water, let it dissolve, and drink it. He just puts the powder packet right in his mouth and swallows it. It's not even a packet. It's a scoop. I just put a scoop of the stuff into my mouth.
Starting point is 00:16:23 I mean, what a weirdo he is, huh? Yeah, but also, then it just sucks for like 30 seconds. It doesn't suck for the entire time you're drinking the water. It actually doesn't suck at all. I like it. Yeah, but, Allie, to drink a bottle of water, Omar drinks nine gallons of water a day. To drink a bottle of water takes no time at all. You put a little scoop of powder in there.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Yeah, but then your water's salty. It's gross. All right, so Jake just puts a giant scoop on his tongue, swallows it whole. He says that 30 seconds when he's trying to take it down is difficult. I like it. That guy's kind of tanking now, ladies. Yeah, Jake is kind of off the market, so watch out. Let me say hi to Gus.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Gus, you're on the Dank Tank. Good morning. You know, if we did, I had an idea of replacing the inside of chapsticks and glue sticks with butter. Do tell. And just making toast a lot easier, and it just goes up and down like your chapstick does, and then you just apply it whenever. I actually think that's great. A great idea is that it's like the same technology we have for chapstick. Or like those big tube glue stick things where you just kind of roll it up and then you go up and down on your bread.
Starting point is 00:17:37 And you use it for your butter, for spreading purposes. Or you could do the pan. You just spread it on the pan. Originally, I thought he was talking about putting butter on your lips all day, which I thought was a great idea, too. We already were in. Yeah, I was like, that's a good idea. And now I realize he's actually talking about putting it on bread. Yeah, but I thought you were also talking about just like butter on the go. Like if you're in a situation where you have bread but no butter, then you have this.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Shake, yeah, that whole tantrum in the casino because he couldn't get butter. Could have avoided it with chapstick butter. I tried to get my own goddamn butter, and they wouldn't let me. All right, Gus, that's maybe the best idea yet, which is not saying much for this crop of ideas in the Dank Tank. We need to come up with a better name than just chapstick butter. Right, yeah, but that's for the marketing department to think about. We're just here to get the ideas.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Samuel, you're on KROQ. Good morning. Hey, good morning, sweet knockers. Sweet knockers to you, good sir. Hey, so it's summertime, it's hot, and everyone's out by the water. But, you know, sometimes you don't have a canoe. So I'm going to be selling your own build, your own canoe set. That everyone would just bring to the beach? Yeah, you just keep it in the back of your car, you know, or truck, whatever.
Starting point is 00:18:40 And it's pretty much a kick and wire. You make the frame of the canoe, and then you put a little saran wrap around it. Saran wrap? Saran wrap, yeah. Is it going to float? It's not sound Don't cut this guy off He's in the middle of his pitch
Starting point is 00:18:56 What's the important part? It's the flex seal or rip off version of it You feel all the way around the canoe And then it floats like a boat Have you actually made one of these before? No I've been trying to for 10 years Okay I mean how long is it going to take
Starting point is 00:19:16 For us to build this makeshift canoe? 11 years If you want to go in a canoe 11 years from today, we've got the kit for you. I mean, they have inflatable canoes and kayaks everywhere now. This guy's got chicken wire, saran wrap, and flex sealant. And he's still not sure. And what is the situation where you need this? Like he says, hot days like today, 11 years from now.
Starting point is 00:19:37 So this is not for emergencies? This is just recreational canoe use? Yeah, I think he's saying for fun. I thought it was like an emergency. Is this a fun item or is this an emergency item, Saul? It's a fun item, and, you know, you start now, and you can start building it. It's great. I'm only asking for $1 million.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Oh, my God. For just chicken wire and saran wrap? I think it's a good deal. The fact that you go through that much effort just for fun, not out of, like, starvation or necessity. Yes, pantyhose Greg, you're on KROQ. Good morning. Did you fall asleep? I think so.
Starting point is 00:20:16 I just heard... Penny, how's Greg? Good morning. Oh, hey. Hey. Hey, you guys. What's up? Hey, how are you doing?
Starting point is 00:20:24 Sorry, are we bothering you? You called us. Yeah, I was just dozing off here. Yeah, my high idea is a good one, man. What about, like, you run the washing machine, and when it's done, you don't touch it, but then the dryer starts. It's really fabulous. They have that.
Starting point is 00:20:40 That exists. Yeah, I think Ginger Justin has one. Yeah, that's cool. I'm really jealous of that thing. That technology already exists, man. Because picking up the wet clothes, and then you always drop stuff on the way, and it's just, there's no not awkward way to do it. They have one of these things, I've seen it, I think Europe was on this trend earlier, then now it's finally here, or something, but yeah. Yeah, but I don't think it dries stuff all the way, but none of the dryers do anymore.
Starting point is 00:21:02 Sorry, man. Are you guys going to find me a hot little number so I can smoke out with a chick? I thought you were gay. Well, gay and some, you know, gay plus it's called. Gay plus? I've never heard of this. Gay plus plus. Oh, gay plus is the newest.
Starting point is 00:21:20 It's like you're gay in some areas, but plus one or two in other areas. It's called gay plus. Move over, Disney plus. I can't solve this riddle, but congratulations, Greg, on that. It's exciting that you came out as gay plus on our show. You get a gay plus. One final person gets an idea. And let's see how to jasmine on KROQ, and then we have to decide a winner, Allie.
Starting point is 00:21:44 Go ahead. Jasmine, this has been ridiculous enough. It is the Dank Tank. It is on KROQ, oftentimes imitated, never quite duplicated. Good morning. Good morning. So my idea is exercises to slim down your neck. Oh, my gosh. How would that happen? Who could possibly use that? Klein needs to know. I could think of one person that definitely needs it. Right. Well, let's not all say the name at once. What did you, Klein?
Starting point is 00:22:15 Do you have an actual exercise that can actually help slim your neck down or no? I mean, I'm trying to think of some, because I think you might need it. All right, thank you. That's great. Thinking of a noose. It's great when you come up with an idea that you just thought of one minute ago. All right, Allie, we've heard some ideas now. They're not all the best.
Starting point is 00:22:33 Some of them are. We didn't even get to some of the ones on the text line, like a fast track pass for the streets, not just for the freeway. Wow, great idea. So there's certain lanes that you can go in, like a bus lane. Oh, my God. But fast track for you. Who doesn't know? Could you imagine that on like Highland?
Starting point is 00:22:48 Yeah, but once again, as soon as that lane became a special lane, it would suck too. Totally. So it's like the high occupancy vehicle lane sucks now on the, sometimes it's the slowest one. I know. And then it's like tricks you and then it's fast at first and then it backs up and you're stuck there. We've heard quite a few ideas. Only one of them will win access to our endless summer kegger. Who do we want to drink with?
Starting point is 00:23:08 Which one stood out to you as the best one? For me, it's between Chapstick Butter and Fun Canoe. Yeah, those are my two favorites. Those are the strong ones. Maybe not the best ideas in reality, but I do like the fact the guy called. He's been working on this canoe for 10 years plus and still only has chicken wire saran wrap. He didn't really think it through all the way. I hope he has a significant other that's like, damn it again with the canoe.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Will you give up the project? Here's the deal. Since we are doing this endless summer kegger right by the water, I think that he's invited, but he has to have a prototype. He has to bring his prototype. All right, Vanessa, that's the deal. So that's the man who wins the access to the endless summer kegger. It's whoever gave us that canoe idea.
Starting point is 00:23:50 But he has to get his. And sometimes you need that. You got to light a fire under these guys. You know, he's going to serve. Yeah, we've been in five years. Yeah, so he's got another couple. He's got two weeks to finish this prototype, and then we're going to go test it out in the water.
Starting point is 00:24:02 Yeah, well, I'm sure you, you know, you had pie wine as an idea. And then when you actually got Shark Tank, it was like, whoa, We've got to kick everything in the high air. Now we've really got to make something happen. These guys are going to say no in front of millions of people. They've got to be ready. They've got to be ready for this rejection on a massive scale. And that can be you, Canoe Guy.
Starting point is 00:24:17 So, all right, tell that guy the good news, and pick a few other people that called in. Let's invite them as well. We are Klein Alley Show, and this is KROQ. How would you like to go to Harvard? It's very difficult to get into Harvard, but we will send you to Boston to see Weezer, and that's where Rivers went to college,
Starting point is 00:24:31 so at least you'll get to kind of go. You can tell people you're going to Harvard, even if you didn't go to school there. And we've got that trip coming up in about 20 minutes. Get your name on the standby boarding list so you can win your way to the Weezer show in Boston. It's one of the many sold-out shows on their tour that they're about to head in on. And we will get you into the location right here. Crypto.com, October, you'll get to see Weezer right here.
Starting point is 00:24:51 And if you win the trip, you get to go see them again in Boston, plus an autographed guitar. Your chance to win all that in about 15 minutes right here on KROQ. Kaylee, good morning. Hi, what's up? I'm the Canoe Guy's wife. I knew you existed. Hold on one second. You just heard your husband pitch his idea for the canoe? Yes.
Starting point is 00:25:12 And have you heard about this canoe before? He was talking about it on Sunday. We've been together for over 10 years, and he's talked about it every time we go to the beach. We were at the beach with my family on Sunday, and he goes, you know what would be good right now? And I go, don't. And he goes, you know it would work.
Starting point is 00:25:33 I'm like, no, it would not. It would not work. This is a common fight that you get into, is that the chicken wire saran wrap canoe is not a good idea. Oh, it happens every time we go to the beach, every time. And he claims he's never worked on it. He said he's not finished anything, but have you seen him, like, even buying,
Starting point is 00:25:49 has he even purchased chicken wire at any point over the last decade? Oh, you can purchase chicken wire. You can purchase all the saran wrap. He even used the stuff that you can use when you're moving to wrap mattresses. Uh-huh. Yeah. Like shrink wrap? We have a ton of that.
Starting point is 00:26:05 So he has actually bought the stuff to try to make a prototype. He is. He's invested. But he's never once finished a canoe and brought it to the ocean. No. But we do have a pool, and he's tempted to test it there. Tempted? After 10 years, he's tempted?
Starting point is 00:26:23 Listen, do you think it'd be... I mean, we're all having a good laugh at this guy now, but, I mean, if this thing were to somehow, miraculously, turn into a multi-million dollar or billion dollar business, I guess the joke would be on us, but you have no confidence. It's the biggest beach thing since Spikeball. You have no confidence in your husband in this particular realm, correct? Well, the thing is, they're high deals.
Starting point is 00:26:44 So it's like he gets really motivated, and then he gets lazy. And then he just buys saran wrap and keeps it in the garage. I could also use the saran wrap on a sandwich. All right, well, listen, good news for you, I guess, if he's going to bring you as his plus one, because he just scored access to our endless summer kegger. So at least that idea brought you this. I mean, I'm really excited.
Starting point is 00:27:04 I couldn't believe that he was on the radio. I heard Samuel, and I know he listens every day. I listen every day. And I heard his voice, and I was like, don't talk about the canoe. And of course. Well, I wonder if he's going to build it and then bring it, or if he's going to bring the materials for it and build it on site. Yeah, we did say the one caveat is, of course, you guys can come,
Starting point is 00:27:23 but he does have to bring us a working prototype so we can test it out. Your guess is as good as mine. We can't wait to meet you, Kaylee. You sound like a lot of fun, so we'll see you at the endless summer kegger. That's great, Allie. Look at that. I can't imagine every time they go to the beach. She's like, God damn this thing.
Starting point is 00:27:38 Well, I like how she started. She's like, ugh, I'm his wife. We're going to take a quick break. We're back in a moment. We have ADD News to get to. Then we have your tickets to go see Weezer. And before we go to break, Allie, another celebrity is RSVPing to your exciting. Allie is saying, any celebrities out there?
Starting point is 00:27:56 She's been given the hall pass from her wife to sleep with a celebrity this weekend when her wife's out of town. This is big news. Hello, Allison. This is Kim Kardashian. I heard you picked me for your celebrity hall pass. Love that for you. No. Unfortunately, I've seen your acting reel, and I don't think your acting skills are up to par for my next sex tape.
Starting point is 00:28:15 You have no talent. Maybe take some community college acting classes and get back to me. Bye, bitch. Oh, you're a bitch. Oh, man. Now I'm mad. That's a long list of celebrities. I'm mad, and I can't have sex with her.
Starting point is 00:28:25 They're turning Allie down. We've got to take a break. We have more show. Maybe Rob Kardashian you have a chance with. We'll take a break and more show now. You're on the Klein Allie Show. Get into your ADD news in just a moment. Then a brand new hour of the show will begin.
Starting point is 00:28:40 First thing we have for you is tickets to see Weezer at the show. It's happening at Crypto.com Arena in October. And then get you on that standby list to go see them again in Boston. Plus get that autographed Weezer guitar. That'll be happening the second we're done with your news. uh text line wanted to let us know first week listener to klein alley show also happens to be my birthday today we don't really talk about birthdays but happy birthday wheelchair that's for you pal thanks for listening to the show let's get into this now your news grab your
Starting point is 00:29:05 adderall it's time for add news we have our first halloween costume recall and it's not even september yet target has pulled this costume from all stores and issued an apology and i am shocked this even still happens, to be honest. It was a kid's costume. It is a black and orange quote, clown costume with a giant oversized smiley face attachment. They called it the kids
Starting point is 00:29:29 Glows Under Blacklight Circus Clown Halloween Costume Bodysuit. The picture... That's a catchy name. That's what every kid says they want to be this year. What do you want to be for Halloween? Glows Under Blacklight Circus Clown Halloween Costume Bodysuit? Oh, perfect. They have it at Target. Lucky you. I thought you were
Starting point is 00:29:45 going to say Spider-Man. The picture on the front is a kid who happens to be black modeling the costume, and it looks almost exactly like one of those old caricature minstrel show images. The Internet dug up some of these images, and they are almost identical in color and in look, even down to the colors the kid is making. Well, I mean, there's literally this costume. Right. Like, it's almost exactly the same. And so it just begs the question, how did this happen in the first place? As the company issued in their apology, they said, we know we got this wrong.
Starting point is 00:30:21 We are deeply sorry. The costume is offensive and should never have been a part of our assortment. It's no longer available for sale. But there was not only this idea. There was a mock-up of it. Then they said, let's get a kid to model it. What about that kid? Yep.
Starting point is 00:30:36 Okay, kid, make this pose. there's no way someone in the room didn't do this intentionally or at least understood that there was a similarity there. Maybe it's all made in China. They're like oblivious. What would someone wearing that costume say, Omar, if perhaps there's any
Starting point is 00:30:52 clips? No, stop it. That's not what he would say or anybody should say ever. Gay. I don't think you should wear that costume. I'm not thinking of wearing the costume. It's not available anymore. Someone should lose a bet here on the show and have to wear that costume this year.
Starting point is 00:31:09 No one is wearing the minstrel show costume. It's horrible. It's a terrible costume. I'm glad they pulled that off the shelves at Target. At Target, for sure. Just in time for football season, we have an ESPN price increase for the streaming service. ESPN Unlimited is going to go up to $32 a month starting September 17th. And then the just regular ESPN Plus, that's just their regular content library, is also going to be more money.
Starting point is 00:31:35 It's going to go up a dollar from $13 to $14, and their annual cost will go from $130 a year to $140 a year. And the question is, how many of these subscription services do you cut out? When do you decide? You know, it's like Survivor. You've got to be like, where's the weakest link? Because I've got some decisions to make. Which games do they have? Do they have the Thursday night game?
Starting point is 00:31:57 Well, they claim they have tens of thousands. Right, exactly. But I don't think ESPN Plus has enough. If you're going to start raising prices this time of year, it's usually because you say, I've got, if you want to watch, insert which game of the week they have. The Sunday night one, is that the ESPN one? They used to have. It's moved around a lot.
Starting point is 00:32:14 I can't even keep up anymore. You know, we used to have a little cheat sheet on our fridge. You have to. Or Sunday night, here's what you watch. Thursday night, here's what you watch. ESPN's Monday night, right? I think maybe it's Monday. No, I thought Monday night was Fox.
Starting point is 00:32:25 ABC was Monday night forever, but I guess that's the same as ESPN because they're all Disney. But if you have ABC, just watch it there. I don't know. Well, they just said they have 47,000 live sporting events annually and every major sport and championship carried by the network. That number is greatly exaggerated based on all the ones that are skippers. And I'm saying that because they do have a lot of college softball and a lot of other crap on there that shouldn't count towards their number. So how many of the games are they getting, the real games that matter? Well, then you could just get something else, right, like Sunday Ticket and just get all the games regardless of network.
Starting point is 00:32:58 But even that has gotten real pricey, too. That's super expensive. And also, it doesn't even have every game still. There's also blackout games. I don't need anything other than Red Zone, baby. Give me that Red Zone. All the good stuff. Aren't there certain times I want to just watch one game?
Starting point is 00:33:11 Nope, can't anymore. My brain doesn't function. I can't watch real games in real time anymore. I need just the action. It's a fix. I got to get my fix. I need to watch at least one just regular game. Like, I'm fine with the Red Zone for some of that stuff.
Starting point is 00:33:24 But when my team is on, I want to watch their game from start to finish. Can you come close to any of the world records in running that have been set by men over the last 10 plus years? No. So there's a list here of some of the biggest world records that have ever been set. One of them was actually broken earlier this year. But, of course, you have the regular ones that everyone knows about. Like in 2009, Usain Bolt set the 100-meter world record for 9 minutes and 58 seconds, 100 meters. He was the fastest man in the world.
Starting point is 00:33:53 No, no, that would be a terrible time. 9 seconds, I'm sorry, 9.58 seconds. I think I could beat that, actually. Nine minutes? I think I could beat nine minutes in 100 meters. He also set the 200-meter world record nearly 20 years later. Oh, both stand nearly 20 years later. So no one's broken these records.
Starting point is 00:34:08 But it was 19 seconds that he ran that. Then the 800-meter, which is half a mile, is a minute 40 seconds. That's impossible. A half a mile. That seems impossible. One minute 40 seconds, 40.91 seconds. And then the mile was the one that was just broken by Josh Kerr. This was broken in July.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Three minutes, 42.66 seconds. You're not good at times. Are you going to go through all of the times that have been set? This seems like a lot of numbers for you to throw out there. Three minutes, 42.66 seconds. Right. The 400 was broken, too. That was broken by South African sprinter Wade Van Neertekerk.
Starting point is 00:34:51 Do you want to know the time of that one? What is going on here? What is it, like 42? I think Allie's brain is broken. 43.03 seconds. What? All right. What year is that?
Starting point is 00:35:01 So you're asking that if we could beat any of these times? No. Is that a serious question? What about the beer mile? Do you want to know that one? All right. Yeah. Give me that.
Starting point is 00:35:09 You got that? Yes, I do. Four minutes. Okay. 27 seconds. And .1 other seconds. I think you got to go on maternity leave now. I think you got to get out of here.
Starting point is 00:35:23 Call at 20. Let's forget everything that just happened. The 5K. Okay, Jesus Christ. 12 minutes, 35 seconds, and another 36th of a second. What just happened here? If you'd like to go see Weezer. 10K.
Starting point is 00:35:35 You can call us right now. The 20th call, and we'll get tickets to see Weezer right here in L.A., and potentially you'll go see them again in Boston, 800-520-1067. Let's go.
