Klein/Ally Show: The Podcast - HOUR 3- Ellina Abovian, Johnny Doesn't Know and MORE

Episode Date: September 11, 2026

We'll get into an episode of Klein Alley Show in just a moment, but in the meantime, let's tell you about our absolute favorite place on the planet. Yep, that would be San Bernardino International Airport, where you can go through the airport process without waiting in long lines and overpaying for parking. Quick connections to the Bay Area and the world, plus ski and snowboard in Provo from San Bernardino all winter long. Every other airport, you're going to be in long TSA lines, you're going to be miserable, you're going to say, oh, I got to get there two, three hours before my flight.

Not at San Bernardino International Airport. And now we send you on a direct flight into our podcast, which starts right now. This is the world famous KROQ. Oh, hell yeah. Thanks for listening to KROQ. Thank you for following along. If you are watching, we are on YouTube streaming there as well. What an hour to be alive together again on the world famous KROQ.

We have tickets for you right now, four packs. We'll get you into Not Scary Farm opening night. You'll be there. Get them first screams of the season. And then we have lots of other stuff to get through this hour. We got some Johnny Doesn't Know. We have a Box of Shame plan. No!

And one of our absolute favorite guests, Alina Bovian, formerly of KTLA, now LA Magazine. And I think had something to do with our show being declared Best of LA. I thought that was a public vote situation. And I was really proud that the public voted for us. But I think she was just doing us a solid. I think she was, yeah. She was one of the very big stories when KTLA had that mass firing and they fired a lot of people who had been there a long time.

And Alina Bovian, I think, was fired on her birthday or just before her birthday. It was like a big 40th birthday gift from KTLA. Yeah. But now it seems she's on to bigger and better things. So, and then. Happy birthday wheelchair. That's what we say. That's right.

It's the anniversary. We say good morning now to our 20th caller. We'll play that for her. I think that's Omar's favorite new drop. I really do. I mean, any time Happy Birthday is mentioned, I have to play it. How long will it take for Alina to hate us? I think today will be the day.

Hey, is there a boss that usually doesn't come in on Friday? Is he in today? I bet he'll be here. The parking lot's full. The parking lot is full today. Everyone who's ever worked here came in today. Usually there's a ghost down around here. Hey, Tiffany from Pico Rivera, good morning.

Hi, good morning. How are you guys? Doing well. Happy birthday wheelchair to you as well because you are the 20th caller. So you'll be going to some Knott's Scary Farm opening night. Get ready for them screams, all right? Thank you so much. Thank you for starting your day and weekend with us here on KROQ.

If you are in a wheelchair, do you get to skip the lines at Knott's Scary Farm for the scary mazes? Or is that just for roller coasters and stuff? That's a great question. Like, if you can wheel yourself through the thing, you should be able to wait in line with everybody else. Let me just make sure I'm hearing your point clearly. You're saying that if you are physically handicapped, when it comes to a maze, a haunted maze, you shouldn't get preferential treatment. Why would you? If you're getting on a roller coaster, someone has to help you get on the roller coaster.

Like, that's an extra process. I understand that it takes more time and assistance and things like that. But if you're just rolling through a maze, you're just rolling while people are walking. This is Allie, by the way. She's decided to bring this up. Unprompted? Tiffany, I know you're still on the phone. We're in the middle of giving you tickets,

but Allie's decided to go on some sort of a weird rant against the handy guy. Tiffany, you know what I'm talking about, right? Yeah. Oh, boy. She does not want to jump in on this one. All right, well, there you have it. A very welcoming show.

We're in the line with the rest of us. Unless you're a cripple, in which case, get to the back of the line, loser. Right, Cody? That's what she's saying. All right, we'll get into some Johnny Doesn't Know. So, in a moment, and if you'd like to play with us, you're more than welcome to call now, 800-520-1067. And we have some questions.

These are very general intelligence level questions. And if you do better than Johnny, just by predicting if he will know the answers, yes or no, you don't need to actually know the answers yourself, you will win something from us here at KROQ. So, call now, play next, 800-520-1067. That is after some System of a Down on the world famous KROQ. All right, it's KROQ. It's Friday. we have that going for us and we're going to give you

something right now if you're able to predict if Johnny will know answers to very simple questions I think Johnny's going to try to seem smart today because Alina has arrived she's in the other room

I know she can hear us right now the last time that she was here Johnny you did that weird thing where you sat in the corner the whole time and watched her interview

and my spot is open for me to go back to again today your cuckold corner cuckold corner Johnny's going back to his corner he's only done that

one other time it's remarkable how weird everyone acts he'll just fluff himself when a bovian's in the building All right, well, let's get into it, Johnny. We've got some questions. These are general knowledge, but pretty easy.

In fact, these were rated at a fourth grade level of easy. Damn it. But that doesn't mean Johnny will know the answers. It's time for Johnny Doesn't Know. Here we go. Johnny doesn't know. And I was like, okay. Oh, Johnny doesn't know.

I didn't know Vegas was like in Vada for like a while. Johnny doesn't know. Johnny doesn't know. Gelato sounds like Jell-O. Johnny doesn't know. It like goes, wiggles. All right. Let's go ahead and get our first contestant on the air.

Randall, you don't need to know the answer. You just need to know if Johnny will know or at least predict. Adrian, welcome to KROQ, and good morning to you. Adrian. David. All right, we'll go with that. Off to a great start. Let's go.

It's a strong start. Let's go. Who screened your call? Was that a Vanessa or a Johnny? I think, no, it was me. I remember I took all the calls. Oh, Johnny. Yeah, and you asked him to spell his name like we talked about and all that stuff?

No, you know me. I don't care about that. I've been doing this four years. We know. I've been doing this four years. Don't give me notes. So what is your name? David.

David. That sounds close enough, yeah. It's a word jumble. Yeah. All right, so Johnny didn't know your name. Let's go to this one, though. Will Johnny know what the center of an atom is called? Yes or no?

He didn't know my name, so I'm going to go with no. All right. David and or Adrian says no. Johnny, he's confident you will not know what the center of an atom is called. Do you know? Shout out my boy Nacho Libre. The center of the atom. It's called the nucleus.

Wow. Sorry. Nucleus. Wrong name, wrong prediction. We move on. Johnny, I told you. I knew he was going to come in here today, and all of a sudden he was going to act all smart and stuff.

Turn on the jets, man. Yeah, but he only knows it because of Nacho Libre. What's wrong with Nacho Libre? Shout out. Every teacher is like, why? Why did I bother? Yeah. This guy got one question right, and he gave the credit to Nacho Libre.

Nucleus. Hey, Lori, good morning. Welcome to KROQ. Hi. Hello. Good morning. Johnny? Mm-hmm.

What is the small dash call that is used to connect words together? Will Johnny know this, yes or no? I'm going to say yes. Johnny, it's a small dash, and it's used to connect words together. What is the name for it? She thinks you will know. Klein, are you referring to what is the hyphen? Wow.

So this is where genius Johnny comes in and tries to confuse us all. When he puts his fingers together in a triangle. It makes you look smarter when you connect your fingertips. He's also done that before and given us a completely wrong answer. Did that when he thought that cheese was... I do declare mayonnaise. Yeah, we've had that many times on this show. All right, two people have gone.

Only one is predicted correctly. She said Johnny would know? Yes, she did. She said Johnny Doe. Good job. So hold on. Put her on as a right one. All right.

We say hi to Chris now in Valencia. Good morning, Chris. Welcome to KROQ. Johnny doesn't know. Hey, guys. Good morning. Johnny, what is three-fourths as a decimal? Let me ask it again, Klein.

Go ahead. You were looking away. You were confused. Because I was like, what the hell did he just say? What is three-fourths as a decimal? Well, Chris, will Johnny know this yes or no? I would say no. I don't know it.

You don't know what three-fourths is as a decimal. Really? All right. So he doesn't think Johnny will know this as well. You're Johnny's people. Johnny, think about it before you answer. Yes, I'm ready to go, Mr. Klein. He says you will not know.

It is going to be 0.75. Wow. This is so rare. Three-quarters, 75%. Johnny usually gets tripped up when you start doing fractions. When you start doing math at all. Math is tough for Johnny. English is your subject.

English is my subject. I could write like a, yeah. I could write like a, yeah. I was going to say a bad word, but I was like. Say hi, Mike in Anaheim. Good morning. Welcome to Johnny Doesn't Know on KROQ. So far, Johnny's gotten a lot correct today, which is rare,

but I assumed he's going to try to put his best foot forward. Johnny, what is a shape with six sides called? Will Johnny know this? Mike, yes or no? Yes, he will. All right, Johnny. He believes the streak continues. A shape with six sides is called what?

Big Mike, I got you. Six-sided shape, a hexagon. Damn. Hexagon, baby. Johnny's a genius over here. Johnny's on a heater today. I don't think in the history of Johnny doesn't know he's ever gotten every question right. He's gotten a few where he's gotten four out of six or something.

Do you know what the stop sign one is? No. Pentagon is five. Hexagon is six. And that's as far as you go? I'm stumped after that. What's an eight-sided thing called? An eight-sided?

Oh, spider is an eight-sided thing. Oh, man. Amazing. Nice. Just when I thought. Just when we started calling him Johnny Genius, he gave us that. Haley. We've got to do this last one, then we've got to move on.

Our guests are waiting. Hello. Hi, good morning. Will Johnny know what 25% of 200 is? I could hope so, yes. Yes. You have a $200 bill at a restaurant. You want to leave a nice 25% tip.

How much are you leaving, Johnny? I do it, but I got to take a minute and write it out and do all this crap. I know I could do it, though. I know the answer. I just don't know right off the top of my head. You want some paper and a naked lady pen? Yeah. Whoa.

Whoa. Okay. Johnny's just looking at the pen now. Hold on. Give him a second to... It's weird you have to turn it upside down to see her breasts, though. You kind of like... I would like it the other way.

Yeah. Johnny, focus on the problem at hand. Yeah. Yeah, sorry. What was it? $200 of what? What is 25% of 200? Okay.

She says you will not know. 25% of 200. 125. Oh, man. 12. Damn. 12, damn? 25% of 200?

That's right. Look at his head. He was feeling so confident about himself a moment ago. It was until you just gave me a math question, and I was like, bro, what do I look like, a calculator? That stuff's already printed out on the receipt before I signed the check. Right. You have a little guide at the bottom. You couldn't figure that out if you had to?

I probably could, but I mean, I can't do it under pressure. Are you leaving waiters $125 tips? God, no. I don't do that. Haley said you wouldn't know. I'll give you one more chance to give us the right answer. 25% of $200. Let's go $50.

Wow, is that right? Wow. Far cry from $125. Wow, $50. Haley, I'm so sorry. All right, well, listen. One of you that got your question right is going to win yourself six tickets to the Sandsport Super Show, so hang tight for those tickets.

We take ourselves a quick break. When we get back, the woman responsible for declaring our show the best in L.A. I wonder if she still feels that way after hearing what she just heard. Alina Bovian joins us in the KROQ studios. After this, we are on YouTube streaming live there and more on KROQ after these words. 106.7 KROQ, Brian Alley's show, Friday morning. Back in our studios right now. She's one of our favorites.

Ali has been as excited as I've seen her ever this morning. And it wasn't for me, for a change. Alina Abovian. I look at your mug every day. KTLA was how we all welcomed her into our lives. And then they did the worst possible thing they could have done. What a terrible decision. I can't say this enough.

I mean, if you've got a bunch of people on the chopping block, how are you like, Alina Abovian, she's got to go. She should have been the last one standing there. But regardless, it doesn't matter what we think. We have no power. And now she's at LA Mag. And it's great to have you back on KROQ, Alina. And ever since you were in here the first time, people said, have her in every day. And here you are.

Happy to be back, guys. Thank you for being here. Congrats on all the things that have been going on. I guess we should probably give you a proper thank you on KROQ because I didn't realize when you put together the best of L.A., which was the August issue of L.A. Magazine. Klein said he used to read that every year. I did. I look forward to it. It's like my Bible.

I've got to eat there. I've got to go there. I still think of it like that, but I never thought we would ever be featured in there. And then you pulled some strings and you made it happen. And I didn't realize that really. Was it just your opinion that we're the best radio show or did other people actually have that opinion as well? No, I think that proof is in the pudding, guys. Right. I mean, look at your numbers, the way that you guys are bringing in the audience. I mean, it's tough to do nowadays, especially in radio. So I thought that that deserves some honorable mention. So you're helping make these decisions and print out the final copies. Right.

And when it comes to, you know, radio show, yeah, you're helping make that decision. Are you making equally important decisions on the best puppet show and all the other things that have been in L.A. Magazine? Like, you're making all those decisions? I'm not making all the decisions. We have a team of editors, so we all come together and decide what decides, what needs to be the best and what does not. Who put Zibby's Bookshop on the list? I was disappointed. That wasn't me.

Okay, I'm just curious as to, Allie, we're on a list with Zibby's Bookshop and The Bubble Show. I hate Zibby. I've always had him. Okay, don't knock a good bubble show. I would imagine a good bubble show is worthy of knowing about. And I'm going to tell you right now, if you've not seen a good bubble show, you haven't lived. So I do know that on the page that you put us in, and I don't know if this was your call or the editors, the other editors there, you have an opportunity to put one picture that goes with the page.

And you decided instead of putting a picture of Allie and I on the page, you put a picture of the outside of a building. And I believe it was a puppet theater. It was the Marionette Theater. Correct. Was that your call? Well, haven't you guys been out there enough? Let's get some other people. The puppet theater needs press

You have a chance for one little tiny picture And you could have put Ally I think you went with the right call I'm not saying you made the wrong call I think it was the wise decision But that just proves you're probably good at what you do Let's put a building out there instead of those guys You can be humble

You don't need to be seen as much Can't get wrong angles on a building Ally and I put together our own list Which we're going to share with you in a moment Because you focused on the best of LA And we have a list we put together The worst of LA But we fight about a lot of things

Like, for instance, we were talking in the category of worst parking lot in L.A. Allie's got her own theory on this. Any Trader Joe's. Whoa! That's crazy. I have it written right here. Parking. I can't read my writing.

Trader Joe's. I have it written right here. Allie believes. I put the Hollywood Bowl. Hollywood Bowl. Okay. For sure. It's a bad parking lot.

You know what's worse than the Hollywood Bowl? The Greek. The Greek or the Rose Bowl. That one's pretty bad, too. Yeah, but they don't stack you. Rose Bowl, you park on a golf course, which sucks. I think it's the stacking that makes Hollywood Bowl parking my choice. But Alina said what I said, and I think anyone can agree.

Any Trader Joe's parking lot is the worst. But that's also in any city. Of course. I think someone just died at the one down the street, right? And how many times have we seen a car actually drive into a Trader Joe's? That's happening regularly now. People love the new stuff. You can just make your own parking spots there at the front of the building.

Yeah, you have to. We'll get into our list in a moment because you're going to help us make some decisions. But you're here not only to hang out and all that stuff, and you're always welcome here. You do have a cool event that's going on that we should mention because it's a food event. We spend a lot of time talking about food. We're all obsessed with food. And this is happening in Malibu. And tickets are available at LAMag.com.

But what exactly is going to go down there? So, it's our annual food event happening at Calamigos Ranch. So, tucked away in Malibu. It's during the day. It's on a Sunday. We have 30 of LA's top restaurants. We have a wine tasting, a margarita bar, cigar lounge. I mean, it's so fun.

$115 per ticket. And we're giving away two this morning. Nice. Oh, look at that. We get to give away some tickets. So if you're interested and you like eating. This sounds fancy like something you would like to go to. I know they have some pizza pop-up that happens there that everyone's been telling me I got to go check out.

I want you to check out the cigar lounge. I want you to just talk to other guys about cigars. In the cigar lounge? You're a cigar gal? I've never. I like to be around heavy smoke. I'm a big fan of secondhand smoking cigars as opposed to firsthand. Like I like smelling a cigar in the distance.

We ever walk into a cigar shop and you're like, ah, it smells like old man. I like a guy that can smoke a cigar But not me Yeah I'm a big cigar guy Now all of a sudden I'm super into it Bring in my stogies guys I was going to be at Calamigos Ranch Smoking cigars anyway

Is that the secret to your sexy voice It's the cigars In fact Allie doesn't realize this but I'm turning her desk into my humidor My walk in humidor I'm a big cigar guy now But this event is happening We have tickets right now We'll give those away in a moment

And we're going to have Alina help us break down the worst of L.A. The worst person, the worst tourist, the worst freeway. Worst landmark. We've got a whole list to get into. And we're going to find out what she's been up to all after Blink-182 on KROQ. All right, Blink, it's KROQ. We're Klein Alley Show in the studio right now. You can watch us on YouTube.

I recommend you head over there. Alina Abovian, who we just found out is now single. And a lot of people are asking that on the text line. Do you want to talk about that at all before we get into our worst of L.A. list? Get into the worst guys of L.A. list. Worst guys in L.A. Who are the worst guys in L.A.? Good one.

Vanessa would agree, right, Vanessa? Yeah, let's talk about it. Oh, Vanessa's got her own list. Vanessa, is she single? Yeah, yeah, very single. She's with you. She's nominating chefs, right, as the worst? Yeah, Vanessa.

Yeah, they're not good. I wouldn't date a chef. You wouldn't date a chef either? Uh-uh. Why is that? Never a chef, not an actor. Sorry. There's certain people who...

Really, I dated a chef, and I thought it was great, because she would always make me food or bring it home from her work, and it was delicious. Yeah, but they don't want to do that when they're done doing that all day. It's like people say dating a nurse is tough because they're done being nice at work and then they come home and they're not nice.

Yeah, but first dating a chef is nice because that's how they impress you. At the beginning. Yes, I went over to her house and she was like, let me show you how to make bananas foster. I set the bananas on fire and I was like, this is awesome. So, Alina, the people you will not date include the following. Chefs, actors, who else?

Have you dated famous actors? One. One that we would know? Yes. Actually famous? Mm-hmm. Could you say the name or no? No.

What does it rhyme with? Lane. Wayne. Wayne. Wayne Brady. Wayne Brady. That's cool. Now, was it a comedian act, funny act, or a dramatic actor?

He went dramatic toward the end. Uh-huh. Yeah. Toward the end? Is he dead? Our listeners will come up with it. Is he old? They're much better at cracking these codes than we are.

This is like 20 questions. Come on. Google a picture. Does he like cigars, does he? Google. I don't know. I don't think he was. Okay.

Moving on. It's definitely Wayne. How do you feel about radio DJs? Yeah, are they out? I don't know. No, they're definitely out. They are now. I don't want anyone in my industry.

Yeah, yeah. No one in media. That makes sense. It has to be something completely different. Yeah. Like a finance guy. Right, that's what I do. You know?

I trade stocks on the weekends. You are probably the worst person with money. Allie, shut it. All right? I got a savings bond I haven't cashed yet, so shut your mouth. Helena, you're on KROQ. Good morning. Hi.

Hey, good morning. I assume you want to go eat the most delicious food on the planet and be a part of this event. Los Angeles Magazine's food event. It's 2026, October 4th at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu. You've got two tickets. Enjoy and thank Alina for those. They're not from us. Thanks, Alina.

You're welcome. I'll see you there. You'll be there. I'll be in the cigar lounge. You know how I do. We've got our list now. These are the worst of L.A., but you need to help us decide. By the way, are you serious about letting Allie and I help you find a date?

We talked about this during the last song, but would you be opposed to that? Look, I'm a very happy single gal, but if you have someone incredible, maybe. We don't. No? No. We have a guy by the name of Pantyhose Greg. I don't know if you'd like to meet him. He's been wanting a boyfriend and girlfriend for a long time.

We have a lot of listeners that I know you like to make it out like everyone who listens to our show is some Hills Have Eyes person. That is not the case. We've been to many of our events, and I go, damn, this is a good crowd of people. They should all date Alina. I'm not saying there aren't eligible bachelors out there. I'm just saying that mostly people who are going to call are going to be like, hey, I want to take you to an In-N-Out truck and then have sex. Hey, well, listen, that's not a terrible date idea. You mentioned that.

I'm going to write that down as a note right there. In-N-Out truck and sex. All right. So only into guys or women too? Just guys. Just guys. Sorry, Al. You're out.

You're out. You can't do it. Let's get into it now. Eliminating half the population, Alina. The worst. I know what I like. The worst of the worst in L.A. She will help us decide because she had to edit down every possible place in L.A. to come up with the best of L.A. list.

And now we go with our first category. The worst freeway in L.A. Allie, what do you say? I got the 405. It's the five. It's always the five. In every direction. At any time of day.

The 405 is such a major artery and includes one of the worst commutes in all of Southern California, which is going from L.A. to Orange County. All right, you have to make this decision now. Which one will make it onto the list? I know you may have a different opinion, but we've whittled it down to two. The 5 or the 405, which is the worst freeway in L.A.? I'm going to say the 5. Wow! Point Klein.

Why? What is your decision-making process there? I think the 5, especially going through the 134 as you approach 110 and then going to San Diego or Orange County. Yeah, that's true. If you were a news reporter, you were getting sent all over the place on a daily basis. And I would imagine the amount of times you were sitting on the phone just yelling and punching your news van. Going, why, why? Right?

That must have been all the time. Every day. Except I drive myself. Oh, really? So you had to punch yourself. Punch yourself. It's so hot. Got a question number two.

It's the worst of the worst. Is that out loud? Stop being in traffic. Ow! Who is the worst tourist in L.A.? We are a city that has a lot of tourists. We'll have even more as the Olympics come here, Super Bowls here this year. Who is the worst tourist?

I think the worst tourist in L.A. is the person who only comes for reality TV show landmarks. Like, I'm only going to Erewhon to try the Hailey Beaver smoothie. I'm only going to Health Net because Kim Kardashian went there in one of the episodes of her show. People who are just chasing, you know, locations or Instagram famous places based on reality shows and reality stars. I think the worst tourist, and it's really every city, but it happens a lot in L.A., They ask you to take a picture, and they hand you their phone, and then you take multiple pictures, because that's what you do these days, and then you give them the phone back, and then they immediately look through and critique your photography work.

And you go, I just did you a solid here. I'm not the Ann Geddes. I'm just taking a few pictures of your family. The Ann Geddes, the woman that put the babies in the strawberry costumes. I'm not a professional photographer. I'm not going to put you in a strawberry costume. I'm taking a picture of you in front of a pink wall on Melrose. Let's just call it a day.

I don't know another photographer. Who else? Who else? You're not an Instagram boyfriend? No, I mean, I do take a lot of pictures of my wife. And she's very critical of almost every picture I take. And after the 20th picture, she rejects it. I go, maybe it's you.

It's not me. Oh, well, that's funny. Handing a phone to a guy is useless. Thank you. I agree. I agree. No guys, no moms. No guys, no moms.

My mom, I'm not even in the photo. That's my hand in the Eiffel Tower. All right, we go to the next category now. Wait, which one are you going with? Oh, yeah. Who's worse? Sorry, you have to decide. Who's worse?

Worst tourist. Worst tourist. Between the one Ali said, I said, or you can throw your own in the mix. I think one that was very specific to L.A., but I think Klein gave one that's very specific to most tourist towns. You know, I think it's the pseudo-intellectual tourist that snubs L.A. because they're from New York and it's better, or they're from another big city. The one who wants to visit and hate it?

Yeah. Exactly. That's a really good one. Yeah, they compare everything to what they have at home. And I love L.A., so I will defend it with very sharp teeth. Right. It's like, oh, you don't go. Shut up, Klein.

We have a guest in here. That's clips of me. Don't pay attention to that. I like the way you kiss me. Shut up. Shut up. That's Omar. Don't worry about him.

Hi, Omar. The next cat, don't even acknowledge he's here. Someone take Omar's machine away now. The next category, I'm glad Omar started playing sound effects, is what is the worst thing that Ali has said on the airwaves of K-Rock? It's the worst of L.A. lists. I'm going to give you two options right now, and you can decide. Go ahead, Omar.

Hit her with it. Saw a couple of cute boys and a hot little girl. It was a real all-you-can-eat boyfay. Okay, that's offensive. And that was said out of context. We were talking about the Wheel of Fortune announcement. Let her decide. There's that clip or there's this clip.

I've done that with jalapenos in my vagina. All right. That one I have no excuse for. That was the Wheel of Fortune guy also. I'm just too curious about the second one. Well, it happened. That's curiosity's option. like is it a simple shower fix or is this a you know no you have to wait it out and it really

sucks i had to go to urgent care with a whole made-up story about salsa going wrong well if you cut jalapenos even if you wash your hands doesn't mean it's all gone that's true i'm just saying be careful where you touch it's a cautionary tale more than anything else uh the next category i don't think we have to choose there wait a minute i have ones where the worst thing that Klein ever said. Omar, hit him. I've never said anything bad ever. Omar, hit him.

I only say good things. Don't hit it. You got two choices here. I'm a cigar guy. I do stocks on the weekend. That's all we need to worry about. Okay? Relax.

Sweet knockers. There you go. I've never said that. And hit it. Big fat asses. That was me in code. That was him describing me. All right.

Let's go to this final round now. Okay. Who is the worst local news station? Now, I have to say it's KTLA. I also had KTLA. Because they fired Alina Abovian. And who could do that? Who could do that?

Would you agree it's the worst local news station, even though you have friends who still work there? Listen, if you can't hold on to a good thing, you're going to fumble it. I know. That's right. And I feel like that's going to you, Wayne, whoever you are. Wayne with the cigars. That's Wayne. We're talking to you, Wayne.

In all seriousness, you're always fun to have here. Long live HIV. Omar, we're out of them. We're out of them. Now hit it. No, don't hit it. Don't listen to them this morning. Stop hitting it.

Stop hitting it. I never said that. Thank you, Alina, for talking to us. That's AI, but anything bad I've said is AI. You can't blame AI. It is. In all seriousness, though, you're always welcome here. Thanks, guys.

And when you put us in the article, we did an interview downstairs, and then is that interview going to go online? Was it the toughest interview you've ever done? Yeah. I know you've interviewed heads of state. Article on interview will come out next week. Who's more fun to talk to, us or Karen Bass? Seriously, guys.

I mean, she sounds like a great time. Yeah, I know. Actually, you know, when she walks into the room. her room, she always makes eye contact with me. Oh, that's good. Yeah, but she doesn't have jalapenos in her vagina like Allie. I bet she does. Okay. Let's get weird real quick.

Here's the good news. If you're a fan of Lena Abovian's, she's single and she's going to allow us to help her find a date for her. I don't know. I said that at the beginning of this interview. No, we're locking it in. And now it is a verbal contract. So, Vanessa, get 50 eligible bachelors queued up for

a Monday and we'll roll with this into next week. Okay. And then we will continue. And maybe the first date can happen at that big event, which is going down in Malibu. No, no. He's not bothering me at my place of work. You can bring her there. We got a blind guy.

We got a guy with one arm. Yeah, you're into one arm guys. And a guy with one leg now. No. Oh, that's right. He is taken, though. One leg Louie or whatever? Yeah, he is a girlfriend.

All right, damn. I missed out on one leg Louie. You did, you did. The good ones are gone so fast. Should have been here last week. It's too bad. All right, well, we'll come back. We have to do the news next and then a new hour of the show.

Of course, all things Alina on Instagram, Alina underscore Abovian, LAMag.com. We will take a break. More show after this. Get rocked. Hey, Rock. We are Klein Alley Show. We'll get into the ADD news. Then a brand new hour of the show will officially begin.

We are live for the calls at 800-520-1067. When we're not here, there's a goat line here for you. Good morning, team. Happy Friday. Vanessa, whose house is it? Rob's house. It's harder to say that after what took place last night, but that's okay. You're bringing a lot of people a lot of happiness, and even though you're not a real Rams fan, you're a forced Rams fan.

People love hearing it. Hey, Clyde and Allie's show. This is Listener Eddie from Mar Vista. Relatively new to the show, but I wanted to call in and say to Producer Vanessa, her yelling Rams house is hilarious. It brings so much joy, and I just wanted to let her know that. So, Producer Vanessa, just know that, yes, the job may be stressful, and you have your days when it seems like it's too much. Just know that you being your genuine Colombian self brings happiness and joy to all your listeners. Oh, that's so sweet.

So, God bless you and the hot dogs. I love the hot dogs. You know, last week, Allie, you left early because that's your move on Fridays. But Vanessa, during the Box of Shame, we learned... Why did we learn from the Box of Shame? You release it and you don't speak on it again. I thought that was the whole thing. That's right.

So I won't tell you that she has been getting the nervous poops again at work and she clogged a toilet down the hall. Oh, damn. Look, I think that's easy to do around here. Not that it's happened to me, but I think there's... Yes, it has. They brought it up in the whole company meeting. No, that was...

Didn't they have to hire people, like a crew? They had to reinstall the whole thing. They didn't have to reinstall a toilet. They changed all the pipes in this place. Jake's right, it was the pipes. They had to put bigger pipes. Bigger poo leak. Allie, you...

There was no poop involved. I was testing out different toilet papers to let you know that I can spot my brand just by feel alone. When they put a stint in people's heart to get more blood flow, they had to put a stint in the pipes because of what Allie did. And then the guy brought it up at the whole company meeting. They did make a comment about me clogging the toilets, which was very embarrassing.

That was a couple of years ago. Our meetings are much more positive now. Yeah, we don't have them anymore. That's why. Let's get into your news right now. Here we go. Grab your Adderall. It's time for ADD News.

Klein, it's Friday. You're here. I'm here. Wow. Even though leaving early is my move. And you'll be here Monday too, right? But you have been a fan of the four-day workweek for a long time. And Bernie Sanders is still in Congress. He's still fighting the good fight.

And he is introducing a new bill to make the four-day workweek permanent in America. What if your workweek got shorter without your paycheck taking a hit? Well, Senator Bernie Sanders is pushing a bill that could turn the traditional 40-hour workweek on its head. He wants to move the standard work week to 32 hours, four days, with no cut in pay. Burn, baby, burn. I know, right? Burn, burn, burn. It's weirdly comforting to hear him talk.

And he's like, this is ridiculous, the fact that we're doing this. He's in the shorter work week over several years with overtime kicking in after 32 hours. Would you take a four-day work week if your paycheck stayed the same? What a question. Stupid question. No, I wouldn't do it. Absolutely. But they say that this is going to be nearly impossible to pass.

Why? They've tested it in so many other countries. That's what I thought, too. And they're like, because labor costs and blah, blah, blah. But I don't think that's true. I don't think that there really is. If it was going to make the company more money, then they would do it in a heartbeat. I don't think they're necessarily going to make more money.

But I always thought that productivity either stays the same or gets better. I spend the least amount of money when I'm here because I'm working. But when I'm out, I've got to kill time on that three-day Labor Day weekend. true. I'm out doing stuff. Every time you're not working, you're spending. Paying for puppy yoga and stuff. So I'm helping the economy. Did you ever get that money back? No. No. And they told me

to stop contacting them. They did? Yeah. Very not namaste, puppy yoga. Very not namaste. You know, I know at least one other person who has been puppy yoga scammed as well. Seriously? The same. Well, it wasn't. I think it was a mistake where they booked the wrong location, but I think there is a puppy yoga scam going around because

it seems to happen more than i thought two times is way more than i thought i mean i understand i've been duped by some things but i never thought i'd be in this sort of a feud with puppy yoga i did i think we all knew when you see a spider in your place of course the instinct is to crush it but then when you get a little bit of a heart have some empathy you think hey maybe i shouldn't kill this spider i'm damaging the ecosystem why don't i take it trap it under a cup and put it outside well according to a new study that's not right either in fact it's potentially worse Most house spiders have never lived outside at all,

especially like the, quote, American house spider, which is the most common one you would see inside your place. Oh, so you're giving them a much scarier death sentence. Has adapted to indoor life, so putting it in the yard or outside doesn't return it to its native habitat. It actually exiles it from its habitat, and it's very difficult for it to survive. So you're giving it a slow death by putting it outside because it has no idea how to navigate the outside world.

If you just go old school, crush it with a shoe. You're giving it a quick death. It's a nice, sweet, that's like one of those. Like pulling the ripcord. It's one of those nice deaths, like a samurai death right there. You're giving them a proper death with like full glory. Right, exactly. But they said dehydration, predators, and the cold would make relocation a likely death sentence.

So you're going to kill the spider slowly by putting it outside. So I guess you're just supposed to leave it there, which is not an option for a lot of people. Especially people like your wife or Vanessa who can't get away from the fact that there's a spider there. Once it's there, that is the focus until it's no longer there. If I've ever not successfully been able to kill the spider and it escapes into the room, that room is now a room we don't go into anymore. Pretend that room doesn't exist anymore. Then everyone has to have a spider room. No! If it drops into the bed, I will f***ing kill you. Be smart.

Every room and piece of furniture will be eliminated one by one until you're just standing in the entryway with nothing to do. And then finally, Snoop has another gig to add to his 5,000 other gigs. He will be hosting the MTV VMAs, which are taking place in L.A. later this month. In one of the widest news reports I've ever seen, it said, quote, It's the one and only D-O-double-G, revealed the social media video, which showed him appearing from a cloud of smoke, a nod to his famous enthusiasm for cannabis. Man, that is well written. congratulations it's about time
