Klein/Ally Show: The Podcast - Kriss Kross'll Make Ya....JUMP! JUMP! (FULL SHOW 7/23)
Episode Date: July 23, 2026Today's show had lots of nostalgia as we got into another round of Gen Wars, and the hit 90's duo Kriss Kross came up, which turned into an impromptu white lady dance party for Ally. It took a quick t...urn when we learned one of them has since died of a drug overdose, but we have plans to book Kross and talk to him on the show. Gen Wars also reignited every boomer's favorite catchphrase: Book 'em, Dano! Ally is taking Vanessa camping this weekend and she had a slew of questions because this will be her very first official camping trip. Questions included: -can I bring my carry on? -do I have to poop in a hole? -can we hike with our cars? We also had a long discussion about how long a person should live during Clickbait, where we learned the average person could theoretically live to the age of 156. We had a real doctor call-in live to give us advice on how to extend our lives.

About to get into a brand new episode of Klein Alley Show, but first let's tell you about our good friends at the finest airport that ever was and ever will be.
The San Bernardino International Airport. Especially when there's summer travel plans, it can get expensive at these airports.
That's why you got to go to this airport where parking is just five bucks a day.
Plus you got those easy trips, San Francisco or Provo, Utah. Maybe you didn't plan anything this summer. See how easy it is.
Don't be one of those people who has to pack your patience. Go to San Bernardino International Airport.
Okay, enough shilling.
Now it's time to get into a brand new episode of Klein Alley Show.
Hey, what's going on, Klein Alley?
Are you ready?
I love Klein Alley, you little bitch.
Klein Alley, it's just okay.
Just don't let Frank's body into that.
Good morning, everybody.
Hey, what up, Klein Alley?
Whoa, sweet divot steak, did you see that?
Meet the Klein Alley Show.
Let's get the show started.
The show started.
the show started we are live in los angeles three two one and here we go
it's klein alley show 6.7 kroq fm and hd pasadena world famous
hey good morning and welcome to your thursday is that right wow the prequel is here look at that
bf thursday welcome really creeped up on us this week didn't it bf thursday babe
Or just Thursday.
I thought today was Wednesday.
Is today really Thursday?
Yeah.
Man, it never goes that way.
I'm usually always wrong, and it's earlier in the week than I thought.
When it's later in the week, that's like such a great surprise.
Good for you.
I'm glad that you woke up all morning thinking it was Wednesday.
Yeah.
How nice for you to realize it's not.
I was convinced of it.
You know what?
Yesterday, before you got here, Vanessa came in and was like,
good morning, we're over.
She said, the week's almost over.
And I said, no, it's not.
Yeah, you can't say that on Wednesday.
That's the halfway point.
And the show hadn't even started yet,
so the day hadn't even started yet.
Right.
I had no idea.
Well, that's a great surprise.
Sometimes I come in here and I think it's Thursday.
It's Tuesday.
That's a sucky surprise.
But everyone always knows it's Friday.
Everyone has that.
It's the best branded day of the week.
That's why it's got that whole song.
Yeah.
I feel like Tuesday through Thursday,
everyone mixes up.
But on a Friday, everyone knows.
In the summer, I think all the days get a little sloppy, kind of like that week between Christmas and New Year's.
It's a little, you kind of know what's going on, but also there's a little bit more of a margin of error.
Yeah.
Because everyone's out of their kind of regular routine and schedule.
But it does suck thinking that it's Thursday when it's actually Tuesday or Wednesday.
Oh, that's the worst.
That's a terrible thing.
That's the worst.
Anyway, today, for anyone else who was unaware, today is Thursday.
So happy to be up Thursday.
Enjoy yourself some breakfast for dinner.
Enjoy the pre-Gwen.
Lots to get to on the show today.
Of course, we will continue to hook you up with tickets to go to Universal Studios Hollywood
and ride that new Fast and Furious roller coaster that just opened.
You'll be one of the first.
It's kind of cool.
We're lucky it's right in our backyard in the sense that some people are traveling around the world
to go there and ride the ride, and all you've got to do is drive 20 minutes and park.
And you get that parking validation, right?
Yeah, probably.
Do we throw that in?
I don't know.
That would be cool.
It's going to be hard to drive regular in a car after going on the Fast and Furious roller coaster,
so then you've got to go drive and follow them.
10 miles an hour out of the parking lot.
Follow the rules again.
Not good.
We've got that to get to today.
We also continue to hook you up with this festival happening in Santa Monica.
It's called Ocean Way.
And if you're not paying attention to the show, you should start right now because everything that we say on the air, good, bad, or otherwise, could be used against us or could be used for you to win your way into the show with the killers, Jack White, Sublime, and others.
In fact, I didn't realize this, Allie, but apparently people do claim that us yapping on the radio occasionally does some good.
and this guy wanted to thank us
because we brought his attention to something
and apparently it changed his life
forever. So listen to this. I think finally
we start the show with a positive call for
a change. I just
decided to start watching the
Showvertime podcast
and hearing
Klein talk about what he
was into and might just be
the first and last time I ever listened
to that. I just can't
look at you guys the same anymore.
That's the wrong
No, that's the wrong message.
He's disturbing.
That guy, that was the wrong one.
This is the guy that's saying a good thing about us.
That guy's not going to listen anymore.
Here's a guy that likes us.
Fine, Allie.
Hey, sweet divots.
I am a caller from the New Jersey area, an OG slogger, with a big thank you.
A couple weeks ago, maybe a month ago, you guys interviewed Matt Bellamy from Muse.
He was talking about a tour.
He had not been on the radar for a while, looked it up.
Turns out he was going to be at TNC, 45 minutes away from us.
We went last night to his concert, or to the Concert Muse.
Absolutely amazing.
Just a great, great show.
Great venue.
Great night.
Just everything was good.
And the only reason we were there is because you guys had him on, and you interviewed him, and put him back on the radar.
So thank you for that.
Have a great show.
Bye.
Yeah, well, Allie and I take a lot of credit for the success of the band Muse, clearly.
Yeah, I know.
It's because we put him back on the map.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That guy was wasting away in Irrelevanceville.
And we brought him back.
I hope there are just as many lasers as you promised.
It sounds like there were.
Yeah, it's cool.
That's one of the first shows they put on as part of the new tour.
So you're welcome.
And who knows what we remind you about today.
I'm K-Rock.
Good morning.
All right, lots to give you this morning.
So if you're into it for the free stuff, just keep listening and we'll hook you up.
Limited edition Klein Alley Show merch and moments.
Of course, 100 bucks of Alley's cash.
People were thrilled yesterday.
She lost a round of Alley Knows the News.
Had to pay the people.
Oh, my God.
Yes.
Allie knows the news.
She got beat, dude.
Frickin' the pudding ain't sweeter from this side of the spoon, is it, huh, sweetheart?
Want to answer that, Allie?
Is the pudding sweeter from that side of the spoon?
It's not.
Okay, so this guy made a point.
He's right.
The pudding ain't sweeter, and you learned that.
Frickin' the pudding ain't sweeter from this side of the spoon, is it, huh, sweetheart?
Look it, dude.
One cheater takes out another cheater, dog.
That's just how it is, dude.
How does it feel?
You sit there like Bill Clinton lying to the public.
You know what I'm saying?
I do not cheat on Allie Knows the News.
Yeah, you do, dog.
And so did that lady.
And so now you're going to get a chance to your own mediciones, okay?
So this guy clearly is an intelligent listener,
and he is convinced, Allie, that you are cheating.
And even though maybe the contestant was cheating yesterday,
she out-cheated a cheater, and you lost in your own game.
I'm sick of these conspiracy theories.
Well, someone put it in song form, and here we go.
She's technically a cheater because it's one versus two.
Let's find out if Pregnant Allie knows the news
So listen, if you'd like to battle Pregnant Allie and take her money
This is money that could be used to help offset some of the cost of having a second child
It's expensive, all that stuff you gotta buy
Diapers and formulas and everything else
I'm already getting some of the bills from the embryo transfer
See, that ain't cheap
So now's a great time to take Allie's money
So we can completely make sure that she is starting from nothing
Cool
And if you want it, all you gotta do is call now
800-520-1067
Let's turn yesterday's loss into a losing streak for her.
She was on her high horse for a while, talking about how she hadn't paid out in a while.
It had been months.
It's been a while since people beat you, and I've got the questions.
They're all about things happening in the news.
Allie has not seen them yet, so this will be a completely fair and square game.
And if you'd like to play, call now.
We'll play that after this quick break, and the show continues next on KROQ.
Technically, it is two against one, which I believe is called Canadian doubles.
She's technically a cheater because it's one versus two.
Let's find out if pregnant Allie knows the news
You'll be battling Allie and her unborn child
Living inside of her womb as we speak
Well, my unborn child is not helping me get smarter
Let's put it that way
Well, I mean, it's technically two against one, right?
Two heartbeats, two brains
Yes, but the baby is sucking the life out of me
Also, we've heard the baby
The baby is intelligent
Yeah, the baby sells all sorts of stuff
Do you want us to listen to the baby?
No, no, no
I'll give you $100 if you don't
All right.
Well, we'll do that later in the show once we write something.
Let me say hi to...
It won't take long.
This is Christina from Riverside.
Good morning, Christina.
Good morning.
If you're okay taking Allie's money,
all you have to do is answer some questions
about things happening in the news.
She will sequester herself outside of the KROQ studios.
And if you're one of the many people just listening right now,
let's see how you would have done
had you been on the hot seat.
We're rooting for the people.
Allie lost yesterday, had to pay $100.
If you do not win and do not get her money,
Don't worry, we'll give you some limited edition Klein Alley Show merch,
especially if you've never slept with Jake.
You can get a shirt that says you've never been intimate with Jake,
and the odds are you haven't, so maybe you get that in your future.
Let's get into your round, and here we go.
Alley knows the news.
Question number one.
This UK band has just passed the Beatles
with the new best-selling studio album in the history of the UK.
Okay, which band is it that has just passed the Beatles?
Oasis.
Oasis.
We've got a question number two.
Universal Pictures has confirmed a biopic
based on this Long Beach native
that will be hitting theaters in August of 2027.
Got to wait a year, but who's getting their own biopic?
Bradley Knoll.
Bradley Knoll is from Long Beach.
We've got a question number three.
Let's go with this one.
This celebrity ginger has shocked the public by changing his hairstyle,
and he claims he had to do it because, shocker, he got sunburned on his scalp,
which celebrity ginger has changed their hairstyle, and it has shocked the public.
Oh, Ed Sheeran?
Ed Sheeran is a famous ginger.
That's a good guess right there.
We go to question number four right now.
Glenn Powell is a big movie star,
and he'll be playing what Olympian in a future movie?
What Olympian will he be portraying, the great Glenn Powell?
Uh-oh.
Let's go with Bruce Jenner.
Bruce Jenner.
And finally, question number five.
This food marketed to children has been recalled
because it's got potentially some plastic in it.
What food is now in the middle of a recall?
Oh, Uncrustables?
Uncrustables.
God, I hope not.
I'm throwing those down like left and right.
I think Johnny's eating about four Uncrustables a day right now in the back.
All right, hold on.
We'll bring Allie back in in a moment.
Send her in here.
Allie, what were you sprinting for?
Where did you run?
The bathroom or something?
I had a P.E.F.
Oh, that was a cry.
I've never seen you move like that before.
That was wild.
I was going to be late.
Okay, no, it was crazy.
Some real running.
Uh, we have got Christine on the phone from Riverside.
You're battling to hold on to your own money.
And here we go.
Question number one, this UK band has just passed the Beatles and they now have the top
selling studio album in the history of the UK.
Who is it?
Yeah, I think this is Oasis.
She also said Oasis.
And, uh, to beat the Beatles is like, that's, I believe, I feel like that's the mark.
Anytime you quote did better, sold more, had more of this than the Beatles.
Because they held that title for so long.
And Oasis is absolutely the correct answer.
She got that right as well.
Both of you guys on the board.
One, one after one.
And congratulations to the Gallagher brothers.
Didn't they also say that one of Queen's greatest hits is the top-selling album in the UK of all time?
Yeah, that's the problem.
That surpassed the Beatles, too?
Yeah.
No, the Beatles suck.
The Beatles just keep getting beaten now.
Well, they can't put out any new stuff.
There's only two of them floating around, I think.
You're right.
Thank you, Vanessa.
We go to question number two right now.
It's tied up 1-1.
Universal Pictures has confirmed a biopic based on this Long Beach native that will be hitting theaters in almost a year, August of 2027.
Yeah, I think that is Snoop.
All right.
She guessed Bradley Knoll of Sublime, but the correct answer is Snoop D-O-double-G is getting his own biopic, which he claims will be R-rated at least.
Oh, well, how could it not be?
Well, because, you know, Snoop, I think, is also one of the voices of those dinosaurs in that new Paw Patrol movie.
So, like, he can go family.
He also has a great kid's album.
Yes, that's the thing.
But I think he said this biopic is going to be not the family-friendly Snoop.
No, it's about his life.
It can't be.
Ali's on the board again.
2-1.
Let's go, Christina.
We're playing Comeback now as Ali goes up another point.
We go to question number three.
Ali knows the news on K-Rock.
this ginger celebrity
has shocked the public
with a new hairstyle
because he claims
he had to
after getting
shockingly sunburned
on his scalp
because that's what
happens to gingers
this time of year
which ginger celebrity
is explaining
his new hairdo
I did see this
I think this is
people were up in arms
because Conan O'Brien's
hairstyle
was different
she guessed
it was
that singer
that ginger singer
Ed Sheeran
which would have been
a funny guess as well
but the correct answer
is the iconic
Conan O'Brien
who's now going with
the slick back
Pat Riley look
to accommodate
his sunburned hair.
Allie is right again.
Goes up two
with two questions left.
Glenn Powell,
big movie star,
will now be playing
what Olympian
in a feature
future movie
just announced?
I don't know.
Michael Phelps?
Good guess.
It's a little gayer
than that, Allie.
Greg Louganis.
Ah, Lou Gaines.
Lou Gaines.
There you are.
That's how you used to get your name, right?
Is that what they're calling it?
That's right.
They're calling the movie.
No one gets the point on that, and we go to this final question.
And it all comes down to this.
There's been a recall.
Food marketed to children has been recalled because they think it could contain some plastic,
which seems to be a problem these days.
Everything's either giving you diarrhea or it's got plastic in it.
What food is being recalled?
As a parent, I should know this.
You should.
I think it's, is it fruit snacks?
Fruit snackums?
Or like the ultimate kid snack?
She guessed Uncrustables.
It's a good guess.
I'm not right.
Allie guessed fruit snacks closer.
But it's the fruit pouches.
The kind that, you know, are filled with that little, the little suck it down.
Oh, the little yogurts?
Yeah, not those ones, but the certain.
Oh, where it's like, it's banana and peas.
Yeah, but they try to squeeze a little spinach in there.
And a little plastic.
So you may want to look that up because those are being recalled over a possible plastic contamination.
Well, at the end of it all, Allie did hold on to her money for today.
And, Christina, we appreciate you playing, but what must you shamefully admit over the airwaves with K-Rock?
Go ahead.
Allie knows the news.
We'll go with that.
A lot of people are saying this woman sounds high right now.
Are you high right now?
No.
Oh, okay.
Just confirming.
It's okay if you are.
We don't have to hold that against you here.
Yeah, we don't care.
We don't judge.
Thanks for playing tomorrow morning.
Another chance to take Allie's money.
Hold on.
Give that woman some merch, as promised, on K-Rock.
Hopefully, 2026 will be looked back upon you as a funner summer.
That's our goal here.
It's funner summer!
This weekend, another one of our goals will be accomplished.
I believe it is the camping trip, the funner summer,
that will be happening with Vanessa and Allie.
Yeah, Vanessa has to go on a camping trip,
and I think she's never camped, right?
I have card camp, but I feel like I've never rough camp, like real camp.
She's been asking Allie so many questions about what to expect and what things she's allowed to bring.
And obviously, based on what you just heard a moment ago, she does no concept of camping and is calling it rough camping.
It feels like it's rough.
Right.
The expression is roughing it.
Okay, roughing it.
Okay, I'm sorry to bore you with the facts.
I know.
And I said thank you.
I said it back.
Okay, I'm roughing it.
Roughing it.
So you guys are heading out on Friday to go camping.
Yeah.
I mean, we're going to be there all weekend.
I don't know if, Vanessa, you want to only rough it for one day.
You're free to just come for Saturday to Sunday if you'd rather just dip your toe in and see
if you like it.
It's going to be balls hot.
That's literally my biggest...
Well, I have a lot of concerns.
It's going to be cooler there than it is here.
Is it by a lake?
In the mountains?
Where are you guys doing?
It is near San Diego.
It is near a couple of small lakes, and it's supposed to be like 80 during the day.
That's hot.
Well, yeah, but I mean, I'm not going to find like 65-degree temperatures down here.
I mean, 80 is better than like 100 where it's going to be everywhere else.
What is your biggest concern, Vanessa, or what questions do you have?
Because Allie, you know, she's been camping many times.
I was born camping.
Yeah, I mean, she kind of, you know, between the lesbian thing and the Subaru and everything else, I mean, this is her life.
Give me a lake and a log, and I'm happy.
Is that what she does?
I mean, you love camping, Allie, right?
I love camping.
I love setting it all up.
And I know people think that it's a big pain in the ass to set up the tent, set up the food, do all the cooking, all the cleanup.
Everything is kind of a process, but that's what I love about it.
Most people don't like the idea that they have to be gross for a few days, but you're used to that.
Oh, my gosh, it's the best.
There's no pressure to shower or to change or to wipe the dirt off your face.
Wait, you don't have one of those portable shower things?
You guys don't have one of those?
No.
No.
Why would I have a regular shower?
Why would I have a portable shower?
She doesn't use her permanent shower, let alone a portable one.
You know, we will take some wipes with us.
Okay.
That was one of my questions.
I was like, okay, are we near a lake?
Is there a showering situation?
So I guess it's wipeys.
Well, you can jump in the lake.
That's a great...
But we are near a lake, like really near.
You know what?
To be honest, I have not been here before.
It's just the first time.
So I see a couple of lakes on the map, but I've not been to the lakes before.
So I don't know what activities there are.
I don't know if you can take boats on the lake, if you can fish on the lake.
Would you be interested in fishing?
Yeah.
Now that's passion.
I'll do it.
I'll do it.
What other questions do you have?
Because we're providing everything for you.
The only thing that you need to bring is an air mattress.
We're providing the tent.
We're providing all the food.
All the equipment that you can need for camping is going to be provided.
Is the best way to do your first camping trip?
No, I know.
Seriously, thank you for that.
My next question is, is there a bathroom or is this a dig a hole situation?
Dig a hole.
Really?
Like, it's not a camping ground?
There's no bathrooms?
Allie will have some of those doggy poo bags with her if those are helpful, Vanessa.
I am not eating.
What?
So that she doesn't poop.
There may be.
Allie, tell her the truth.
There are bathrooms.
There's going to be.
There's bathrooms?
Okay, good.
There's going to be some sort of.
It's a campground, yeah.
So are you going to be like right on top of other people?
Like I said, I've not been to this place.
The campgrounds do look pretty close together.
That's the worst part about camping for me is trying to get out in nature,
and then you're right next to someone.
Yeah, I know, especially if you're next to somebody with bad taste in music
and they've got their music on all the time
or they've decided they don't want to go to bed tonight
and they're just going to be super loud, talking by the fire,
getting drunk and screaming, and you just have to be there for it.
And this time of year, everything's sold out.
It's packed everywhere.
Totally. It's going to be packed every weekend.
Or you're the family that's having a great camping trip
until the lesbian couple pulls up with the child and Vanessa.
The two children.
I assure you we will be one of the least annoying families there.
Oh, I'll take the bet on that.
No, it's always the big giant groups of super wasted people that are the most annoying.
Most fun.
They're having funner summer.
Yeah, but if you want to go to bed at like even 11 p.m. and somebody decides they want to stay up till 3 a.m., that's something that you have to deal with.
So, Vanessa, are you going to bring a sleeping bag?
Is that your plan?
No, Ali told me to bring an inflatable mattress.
Yes, there are things that have to go on top of it.
Right, so the inflatable mattress is part one, but then there's...
Oh, I don't have that.
You don't have a sleeping bag?
No.
I could loan you one of my daughters.
Yeah, could I borrow it, please?
Sure, I believe it's a...
It's Powerpuff Girls.
It's Adora the Explorer, maybe.
Really?
I think it is, or maybe a Frozen one.
It's older.
I mean, they're too old for it now, but you'd be great for it.
Yeah, that's fine.
Okay.
Are you going to bring a pillow?
Okay, yeah, I'll bring a pillow.
Are we helping you?
I need a list.
Okay.
So you don't know.
So your biggest concern, the only thing you've really been thinking about is the bathroom situation.
Well, no, and then I was like, okay, how hot is it?
And like, what kind of pants do I wear?
Like, not leggings, obviously.
Why can't you wear leggings?
Or shorts?
Or what about shorts?
Are shorts okay?
Like, is a snake going to get me?
Or heels?
Is a snake going to get her?
That's her concern.
Like, if I wear shorts, or is it safe for me?
Well, you're going to be out in the, you're going to be camping.
So there's probably going to be animals around.
And when you're in a crowded campground, you know who loves those is bears.
Bears love it.
So they usually have an area where you have to lock up your trash at night.
Otherwise, the bears will come and try and eat all of your food.
And sometimes they will try and get into your car.
They've been known to break into people's cars.
We had one that walked right through our campsite last time I went camping.
And, yeah, it can get a little scary.
But they usually, if they get some food, they'll leave you alone.
But remember to, if you do encounter a bear, just yell.
What's a second left?
You guys are right on.
Freak it the hell out.
Totally.
George, I'm K-Rock.
Good morning.
Hey, good morning.
This one's for Vanessa.
You do realize that Allie is pregnant, and she's probably going to be farting a lot in her sleep, and you guys are sharing a tent.
We're not sharing a tent.
We're not sharing a tent.
Oh, you're not sharing a tent.
No, she's getting her own tent.
She has a whole ass family.
Yeah, I've got to be like, thank you so much for inviting me, but I don't want to be with your family in a little tent.
That would be crazy.
That would be terrible for her.
You're building Vanessa her own little tent?
We're bringing her her own tent.
Well, for it?
I have a four-person tent that she can have for herself, or I have one of those single tents.
So, you have to go into Vanessa's tent to fart, you're saying?
Yeah, I'll go in there.
Okay.
I have another question.
Yes?
Obviously, maybe there's no reception, but, like, expect our phones to die, right?
Oh, man.
Like, there's no scrolling at night.
Is that helping you go to bed?
Maybe, like, a little bit.
Well, this is an opportunity to unplug.
You unplug.
You connect with nature, Vanessa.
Where you just kind of sit around the fire and you talk and you laugh.
No, I mean, I like that part.
I'm just saying, like, for the bedtime.
Doesn't sound like she likes that part.
But then I want to go to my tent and scroll on TikTok for three hours.
For when it's time to go to bed.
Yeah, you're not going to probably have much usage of your phone at all.
So you're going to have to listen to Ali's stories.
So, like, who cares if they like dice?
And now I'll tell you about the other time I went camping and almost caught a fish.
Yeah, if you want to scroll, get ready to scroll through Ali's long stories of all of the other times she's gone camping.
And sometimes we can tell spooky stories, Vanessa.
Do you want that?
Yeah, I do.
I do want that.
So are you excited or nervous or scared?
I'm excited.
I'm a little bit worried about the heat.
I've been having, like, this whole week, this past two weeks, it's been so hot.
And I'm like, now I'm going to be out in nature and just take it.
Yeah, well, I guess, Allie, didn't you one time say it was so loud where you were camping
that you ended up going inside your car to sleep?
Was that right?
Because you end up with those weird camping grounds where you can still hear the freeway?
Yes, that is true.
Well, there was another one where that was near the freeway and it was actually 10 minutes from my house.
So I just went home.
Oh, yeah.
That's the ultimate.
You just go home.
That was a practice trip.
So anyway, this is exciting.
Vanessa's going to be going real camping in the rough for the first time.
She's very excited.
You know, wait, one more question.
Do I bring a towel or are you?
Am I bringing you a towel?
No, I know that's a silly question.
Every question has been a silly question.
Okay, I'll bring a towel.
What were you?
Because I don't know if there's showers, but if there's a lake, then, yeah, bring a towel, girl.
Okay, that's it.
Are you talking to yourself?
Yeah, I am.
Okay, fair enough.
You know we have to hike five miles into the campsite, right?
Five miles?
But with our car?
Oh, that's not hiking, Vanessa.
Okay, so that's another question.
I do not have a hiking backpack.
You don't have any kind of a hiking...
Do you have hiking boots?
She's going to be pulling, like, rolly luggage.
I do not have hiking boots.
Do you have rolly...
I have tennis shoes.
Do you have rolling luggage, or are you going to bring a duffel bag?
A duffel bag?
At first, I was like, dude, I do not have, like, I was like, is my pink carry-on okay?
But then I was like, that's kind of embarrassing, so don't do that.
And then I found that I have a tiny duffel.
It is a bit of a roll of shame from the car to the tent rolling, like, a carry-on luggage through the dirt.
I hope you guys document this as much.
Before the phones die, I hope you document as much of this as possible,
because I think the people are going to want to see Vanessa's first experience of roughing it.
Yeah, I want to have a nice, happy meeting because I do want Vanessa to get the full experience and to properly unplug, but I do want to capture some of it.
You guys aren't really hiking to your campsite, right?
No.
Okay, I was going to say.
We're car hiking, otherwise known as driving.
That's good. Vanessa's excited about that.
Well, anyway, we'll update you next week, but that's a part of fun or summer.
So if you need an excuse to have more fun, force fun, to bring back fun in this world, go ahead and do some camping this weekend if you can find a spot.
It's K-Rock.
Pay attention to everything that is said on the show
and win your way into a festival that has just been announced
happening in September in Santa Monica.
You will see The Killers.
You will see Jack White.
You will see Sublime.
You will see many, many, many other bands there
if you get yourself into the Ocean Way Festival.
And the only way to win your way in is by listening to K-Rock.
Tickets all day starting at 9 o'clock.
And at 10 o'clock, you'll have a chance to take part
in the Klein Alley Shoshin Way Quiz,
a chance for you to answer questions about today's show,
things that are happening right now
and things that have not happened yet.
Everyone is starting from the exact same place.
Your chance to win your way into that.
Coming up a little bit later this morning.
Right now, though, there's this, your news.
Grab your Adderall.
It's time for ADD News.
We're in another heat wave right now.
It will last until Monday night.
So it is quite a long heat wave and heat advisory.
Of course, they keep telling you to do things early in the morning and check on your elderly friends and neighbors.
But I'm sure this will have people getting very creative on how to access a pool or a beach or free air conditioning this weekend.
But here is something that I think we need to import immediately.
And this, I know you will be on board with, Klein.
Oh, it's chilly.
This isn't a fridge for food.
It's a fridge for people.
The human fridge.
Oh, man, fridge for people.
Once we're battling extreme heat as Japan sees another brutal summer.
Leave it to Japan to make things that we all want.
They created panty vending machines.
Yeah, that's right.
They didn't ask any questions.
They just made them.
They didn't stop there.
So what's next?
Human refrigerator.
Temperatures in Tokyo have climbed close to 100 degrees Fahrenheit this week.
The company behind the human fridge says it's designed for people who work outside,
including construction workers and event staff.
So the question would be, if it existed here in the U.S., how many would they put out?
Would you have to pay to go in there?
Would there be a time limit as to how long you could be in the human fridge?
Would they prioritize construction workers over you?
Is a human fridge any different than like a walk-in freezer that you'd have at a restaurant?
Or like a beer cave?
Instead of storing food in there?
There's just nothing stored in there.
Just people?
And I think they're like portable fridges that are outside.
It's not like it's inside of a Costco.
It's like an outdoor fridge.
So there's just a fridge on the side of the road and you just get in it and cool off?
Yeah, like a porta potty, but a fridge.
Oh, I bet you that'll be a port-a-potty real quick.
Not in Japan, probably, but here we'd figure out a way.
Here we would defile it, and we would cover it in graffiti, poop in it, do drugs in it.
Well, regardless, it's a great idea, the human refrigerator.
I love it.
They're the same, I believe it was also Japan that came out with the human washing machine, right?
Wasn't that also Japan?
Oh, yeah.
People that didn't want to have to go bathe themselves just standing there.
Yeah, I know they're talking about how Japan is having a population problem, that they're more depressed than ever.
It seems like they're doing great to me.
They're coming up with all the cool tech.
I know, Omar, you predicted this year that companies were going to start adjusting their menus to cater to all the people on weight loss drugs.
It was one of your 2026 predictions.
In a way, you are kind of right.
And they're not changing the portions and making them smaller necessarily, which was what you thought.
But they are making food blander now because people who are on GLP-1s have duller taste buds.
New comments from Nestle's marketing chief this morning.
He said the company is looking to spice up some of their products to counter duller taste buds that can accompany GLP-1 weight loss drugs.
So because they have duller taste buds, they have to punch it up a little bit more for it to cut through.
He said Nestle has been testing packaged food on consumers to understand how tastes change on the medication.
A 2025 study found perception of the five basic taste qualities were depressed by the weight loss drugs.
Nestle said changes could include adding spices or more pepper.
More pepper.
Did your taste buds change any?
I don't think so.
Nuh-uh.
No, huh?
Well, Jake didn't really.
I mean, let's be honest.
You're supposed to find food a little more boring.
Jake eats mustard sandwiches.
Those are good.
I don't really think that's the right guy to go to.
That's fancy mustard.
It's a delicacy.
Do you really have sophisticated taste buds?
Not the guy to go to.
Also, I'll give one more credit.
That's just French's yellow.
I got fancy mustard.
I went to a restaurant last night, Ali, and they said they had a note on the menu that
everything on the menu was available in half-size portions.
Wow.
So I was thinking to myself, as I saw that, I go, wow, Omar is spot on.
But interesting move on the restaurant's part.
You would think half-size portions, half the price, right?
That's what you'd think.
Not the case.
Well, what is it?
Only a little cheaper for half-size portions.
How much cheaper?
Like a few dollars?
Like, let's call it 20% cheaper than the full-size portion.
So you're getting half.
So people are making that decision, save a little bit of money.
But the restaurant's going, we're not going to cut our profits completely.
So they go.
Well, they're selling half the product.
That's what you would think, right?
Instead of a 10-ounce steak, you get a 5-ounce steak.
It should be half as much, but they're saying no because it still takes them the time and the effort and everything.
But I thought it was interesting, based on our conversation with what Omar was saying about smaller portions,
that they just put a note on the menu.
Everything on the menu is available.
I think a lot of people are going like, I'm not going to eat all this.
I don't know why you don't bring it home and eat it over the next four days.
Because there are some people that just don't like leftovers.
I don't really like leftovers, to be honest.
And I don't like wasting food at all.
So I will do it, but it's not my favorite.
I will store it in your cheeks.
Yeah, exactly.
I'll store it in different parts of my body, too.
I'm going to gerbil this meatloaf.
I have a sandwich under my bra right now.
All original ideas are gone these days.
It's all about the reboot.
They don't stop until every good movie and TV show is rebooted, remounted, reimagined, or sequelized.
And there are just a couple that were announced recently.
Jennifer Garner has agreed to a reboot of 13 going on 30, which I never watched and don't care about.
But if you care about RoboCop, Amazon is officially doing a reboot of RoboCop, and it will be a series.
So that's something that people can look forward to.
And Tom Cruise will now take part in a long-anticipated sequel of Days of Thunder.
Oh, great movie.
And they are in negotiations with Tom Cruise.
Cole Trickle?
Who will reprise his role as Cole Trickle.
That's the best.
Also, the movie where he met Nicole Kidman, who I forget he was married to for 11 years.
So, this is going to be put together by Paramount.
And, of course, the last time he did a long-awaited sequel.
Right.
It made a lot of money, billions of dollars, and got a lot of Oscar nominations.
So, I'm sure they're trying to find anything in the Tom Cruise arsenal that can be rebooted, sequelized, or otherwise.
I feel like Days of Thunder, of all of the movies that guy did, was kind of underrated.
It was, yeah.
As far as some of the other ones.
It wasn't his best performing movie, but...
Yeah, I don't understand.
I thought that...
I mean, I haven't seen it in years,
but I remember thinking when I saw it,
that was cool.
Seemed cool.
Never seen it.
Never seen...
Oh, Al, you would hate it.
Great, I'll watch it.
You gotta watch it immediately.
Brand new hour of the show starts now.
This is the world famous K-Rock.
Hell yeah.
Welcome to your K-Rocking good morning.
It is Thursday.
Your prequend is officially here.
And hopefully you're having a decent summer.
If you're not, we'll make it better for you this hour
by getting you into Universal Studios Hollywood
so you can ride that new Fast and Furious Hollywood Drift.
Get ready to ride the ride.
It's been first a rumor, then we got to watch it being built.
I was at Universal a few times as I was watching the construction crews
pouring the cement and getting all the beams up,
and then they've been doing those practice rides.
And now, did they invite us over to ride the ride, Vanessa, or no?
We just get to give these tickets away to our listeners.
We're giving them to our listeners.
All right, well, lucky you.
If you want to bring me, you get three tickets, excuse me, four total, you plus three.
So that'll be coming up later this hour on KROQ.
And we'll get into an interesting conversation based on something that happened as a result of the World Cup.
But if you broke up with someone or were broken up with, and then your ex immediately had an amazing thing happen to them.
Like they dumped you on Thursday and then they won the lottery on Saturday.
Or they had a big promotion.
Right, exactly, because what happened in this, the guy who kicked the winning goal for Spain, who is now a national, I mean international, but he's as big a hero as you could have in the country of Spain.
He just won his weight in tomatoes.
Is that true?
He dumped his girlfriend just before the World Cup, and then he went on to become the biggest celebrity.
Do you think he knew, I'm going to have so many options after this World Cup?
Or he was like, I need to focus.
This needs to be my only focus is this series.
But I also wonder if it was weeks of her girlfriends being like, you don't need him.
He's a loser.
Right.
And then he's a national hero.
And then he's just probably the most famous guy in Spain right now.
So we'll get into the conversation.
You broke up with someone or you were broken up with.
And then immediately the significant other went on to do something amazing or win something amazing.
I mean, I would imagine that happens all the time.
And then you go, God, a week ago, they were just a loser.
Now, look what happened.
So we'll get to that coming up later this hour.
If you've got stories, you can share them with us.
The number is 800-520-1067 to interact with the show.
My name's Klein.
That is Allie.
Morning.
Jake the Nerd over there.
What's up?
Yep.
Omar Khan, the audio sniper.
And then, of course, in the back, Postmaster Johnny and Vanessa taking them calls all morning long here on KROG.
KROG, we are Klein and Allie's show.
It's time for us to tackle one of the biggest riddles on the Internet.
and that is with clickbait
and I'll tell you what,
we're about to find out
how long we should be living for.
Well, let me start that again.
That came out all backwards.
I think you got another two weeks.
I think based on that little stroke I had,
I have got less than 11 minutes left.
But the reality is
that they have now come up
with a new number.
Humans theoretically
could be living to this number.
And if you think about it for a second,
I don't know what the average age is.
I think it's still in the 80s
for men and women on the average.
Really? I thought it was in the 70s, like late 70s.
Oh, it dropped lower. I know we've been going down.
I know we were going up for a while, then down.
But I thought it was early 80s.
I thought women lived longer than guys, too.
I know women live longer than men, but I thought it was creeping up to like the late 70s.
Well, they've looked at the numbers and the research and everything else going on,
and they have a new number that theoretically humans realistically could and should be living for.
Like this is how long our body can last?
Exactly. And it's kind of crazy when you hear this, and we'll get into it now with Clickbait.
Here we go.
this is out today by the way new research that says that according to experts and they looked
at a bunch of different experts from different everything from their brain body all of the
different types of things that you would need and they have said now that you need to live humans
theoretically
could live
to this number.
This is the age.
And I don't know
what your quality of life
would be,
but they're saying
that this is a realistic number
that humans could be living toward.
Like that weird biohacker guy?
Well, that's what,
you know,
that guy's obviously
trying to do
what he can figure out.
He wakes up
and eats a handful of nuts
and that's all he has all day
and then I think
he spends most of his day
in one of those
compression chamber.
I mean, he's doing everything.
No, he's trying to,
he actually has a disease now.
It's not,
his stomach
is eating itself.
I know.
Yeah, it's crazy.
This guy's so hungry because all he's had is handfuls of nuts.
Stomach's going, I'm starving.
Give me some goddamn food.
So that guy has an issue, but his stomach's eating itself.
And I don't know if that's going to end well for him, but probably not.
But if you could, like, I think part of his thing, too, is, like, getting himself to such a cold temperature that he was essentially, like, freezing himself, sort of cryogenically freezing himself to last longer.
I mean, there are a lot of people that were doing exactly what that guy's doing, going, it must be working for him.
And then the guy comes out, he goes, my stomach's eating itself.
And they're like, never mind.
I'll eat some Del Taco now.
Why have I not been doing anything?
So, this is the number, though.
And this is according to the experts.
This is how long we could be living for.
Trying to think about who the longest living person was.
I want to say it was like 120 years old or something close to it.
So, I would then add like 30 years on top of that if we're going to quote theoretically.
Like a person who's born today could live even longer than that.
I'm going to go 150.
You think the number's now 150?
150.
150. I think somebody born right now, because it keeps going up, right? If theoretically they could live the longest a human being could live, I think it'd be 150.
You think about all of the, quote, longevity hacks that are out there now and how much accessibility we have to them. Now, listen, let's be honest. Most of the stuff someone's putting up on TikTok has probably not necessarily been vetted. But if you believe in things like peptides or blood spinning or all of these other...
Yoga, hot yoga, any of the things that can help you live longer.
Sitting in a sauna for, whatever they say, 45 minutes a day.
And if any of the other things don't get you, like the Neato Challenge or any of the other things that could kill you.
If you don't end up eating a Tide Pod and losing your life, then you have all these other things that could be working for you.
And, you know, listen, everyone's putting more supplements in their stuff.
It's all supposed to help us, right?
That's the idea.
So I know in L.A. we're more concerned about looking better as opposed to living longer.
I don't care if I get old.
I just don't want to look like I got old.
But what is the number?
You say 150.
Jake, what is the number?
They have a new number.
I think probably these articles are just outrageous, so it's going to be higher.
I was going to say, like, 170.
Jesus.
170, theoretically.
Can you imagine?
Oh, people's secrets for days.
Oh, my God.
What's your secret?
Yeah, I mean, and that's an interesting question, too.
Like, if someone's living to 170, is it...
Quality of life stinks.
Kill me.
Yeah.
Are they in bad shape for the last 70 years?
That's why I think it's theoretical right
Like you're just sitting at that point
You're probably spending years just sitting in a bed
Or brain in a jar
Yes exactly
Brain in a jar sounds so relaxing
Oh my god
Put my jaw on a hammock
Omar what is the number
So I think Allie's right
I think the oldest person was probably a woman
And she probably lived to be 120 or so
And for Mel
It's going to be 110
So are we doing male and female or just one average?
No, no, just human and humans have theoretically the ability to live how long according to this new research?
I'm going to say I think 120 plus 10, 130.
I'm at 130.
Hey, Leon, you're a doctor?
Yes, sir.
How much of the things we've talked about are medically accurate?
It's pretty accurate.
I mean, with the number you're describing,
It's actually a number that reflects how long, theoretically, the body is supposed to last.
And as human beings, we do a great job of actually messing up that number by malnourishing our bodies.
Thank you.
So the number that I'm going to, so thank you for judging us on all of our terrible decisions.
But what you're saying is that this number that I'm about to share, which is the research out today,
You say, is the number based on if we treat our bodies with some level of dignity and respect?
Pretty much, yes.
Or if they sold things in the grocery stores that actually allowed us to treat our bodies with respect.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know if you've ever had Funyuns, but damn, they're good.
I wonder if you've ever had pesticides.
Those are delicious.
Oh, man.
The number, and Leah, you're a real doctor, so you probably know this, but for the rest of us, is 156.
Whoa!
156.
Allie was closest at 150, but theoretically that means that our bodies could carry us 156 years
if we optimize all parts of them.
Correct, Leon?
Yes, 100%.
Hi, I'm his daughter.
I'm with him right now.
I love your guys' show so much.
I've been watching it ever since I could tell what media is.
We listen to your guys' radio show every morning.
I love your guys' show so much.
Oh, thank you.
Are you a doctor, too?
No, I'm like 16.
Oh, okay.
And you forced your...
Only 140 years left to go.
You forced your dad to listen to the show?
Wait, what?
You forced your dad to listen?
Actually, I've been a lifelong listener, forcing my daughter to listen.
Oh, wow.
You guys can both take credit, but thank you regardless.
That's interesting research there, Allie.
156.
Go ahead and think about that for a second.
That hurts my brain.
Think about that.
156.
Theoretically, that's what you could all be doing.
But if you live in L.A., I think you can half it easily.
Oh, easily.
I mean, smog, that probably knocks like 30 or 40 years off.
We've got to take a break.
We will come back in a moment.
But it's kind of nice if you think about it because if you start freaking out and going like,
oh, man, I'm turning 50 this year or whatever the number is,
you're doing that based on the idea that you're going to die at 80-something.
But if you start going like, oh, still 100 years left?
Right, yeah, exactly.
If you're 50 years old, you're like, I'm not even halfway there.
Right, it puts a whole different perspective on everything.
And as you know, if you look at pictures now of like, you know, 40-year-olds now versus 40-year-olds 20, 30 years ago, where they were all like curly gray hair, grandma looking.
And now you look at them and, you know, you look at like the side-by-sides of like Tom Brady when he was 40 versus some other NFL players when they were 20.
Or like Burt Reynolds.
They look like corpses, yeah.
But then I wonder if we're going to have a second midlife crisis.
Oh, yeah, the two midlife.
Well, your midlife crisis just hits you when you're 100.
But then you've got to go through more crises, probably.
Yeah, we've got to add more crisis.
Late life crisis.
What do you get for 100 years old?
100-year crisis.
Oh, man, I don't even know anymore at that point.
At 100 years old, I'm going to get myself a Porsche.
Finally, I'm going to do it.
Drive it right into a wall three miles an hour.
We've got to take a break.
We're back with more show after this.
Did you break up with someone, or were you broken up with?
And then they immediately, their life got better.
This is what happened to the hero of the World Cup.
Dumped his girlfriend, then went on to become a national hero in Spain.
We want to hear your stories next.
800-520-1067 after this.
It's never usually a good thing when a relationship ends unless you were miserable in that relationship,
in which case it's a chance for you to start a brand new chapter of your life.
Good for you.
Get on the rebound.
Hook up with some strangers.
You don't really ever root for your ex to be doing amazing things, at least immediately following.
As I was about to start taking these calls in a moment, all inspired by a real-life story that happened to the hero of the World Cup,
Ferran Torres, who scored the winning goal for Spain, the 106th minute of the match,
Apparently, he had broken up with his girlfriend just before the quarterfinal round of the World Cup.
Oh, so it was during the World Cup.
During the World Cup, right before the game with Belgium.
Now, there's a lot of theories as to what happened.
First of all, they started unfollowing each other on Instagram, which is usually a sign that there's trouble in paradise.
I'm amazed that people notice that.
Like, how do you notice that they unfollowed each other?
They had, like, millions of followers.
I would imagine when you're that locked into your World Cup team, you want to know everything there is to know about the players.
And so anyway, they had unfollowed each other, and then this guy goes on to become a national hero.
Do you think he cheated?
Who knows what the reason was, or did he want to focus so much on soccer that he's like, I can't be distracted by having a girlfriend at this moment?
And she's like, why haven't you called me?
Right, or can I get tickets to the game for my friends and all my family?
Because they keep asking.
He's like, I can't.
I don't know the reason, but there's all the speculation that they broke up, and then the guy goes on to become a World Cup hero.
And I think about that as it pertains to us regular people, like 818 who texted us and said that basically got into a big fight with my boyfriend while waiting in line to go on Price is Right.
And I finally had had it, so I said, we're done, and I left.
And I actually left him in line.
He went to go on to the game show and won a trip for two to Turks and Caicos, a place I've always wanted to be, and a new car.
So that's like an instant life upgrade.
And then you have to try and convince yourself that that's not that cool.
Right.
You'll probably have a terrible time there.
New BMWs, after like 30,000 miles,
there's nothing but problems.
Let me say hi to Roni on KROG.
Good morning, Roni. Hi.
Hello.
What happened to you?
Well, I was going out with this guy,
but I broke up with him
because I went back with my old boyfriend.
And then he got married to this woman
who made him quit his job
because she was really rich.
And all they did was sail around the world.
Oh, man.
Sailing around the world.
that's like a certain that's like a different level of rich too that's a different level of
freedom like they you don't even have to work again in your life and you're just going to be
on the ocean doing whatever the hell you want for the rest of your life and you were the one who did
the breakup with him and then he went on to the massive life upgrade which is listen that's and
i wonder what the current boyfriend like did he end up being a douchebag or does he just yeah we're
not sailing around the world we're sitting here in tarzana what the hell's going on i know right
Angie on KROQ, good morning.
Hi, good morning.
What happened to you?
So I was dating someone, and he always kind of had, like, instability with, like, money and work.
And that was the reason why, like, I broke up with him.
And then he ends up going into, like, one of those convenience stores, 7-Eleven or Circle K or something,
and gets a scratch-off ticket and ends up winning, like, I think, like, 30 grand or something like that.
And, oh, it was such a bummer.
I'm like, now you have money and you're not with me.
Like, it wasn't about him having money.
It was just like he would never, ever go out and work for it.
That's good financial stability when you find your riches in a scratcher.
That's how you know he's turned the corner.
But then it's like, Kenny, like he won, you know?
Like, she's like, you never work for anything.
And he's like, boop, $30,000 scratcher.
It's also rough for her because she was in the relationship for all these sorry not a winner tickets.
For every failed scratcher.
All the cherry cherry brick or whatever they have.
And then finally, they break up, and he hits that sweet $30,000 scratcher just to be a part of that.
And he's going to get into a new relationship with someone going, wow, this guy just won a bunch of money.
909 said, I've been separated for a year.
I chose to make the decision that she was crazy, so we finally called it quits.
I just found out, though, that she's getting a huge family settlement, but I still feel the money is not worth it.
Well, that's the thing.
It's like, what are the other ways that life could be upgraded that aren't just financial-based?
Like this guy, obviously, he's going to be just fine.
He's the World Cup hero, but he becomes the most famous, popular person in the entire country pretty much overnight because scoring the goal that wins them the World Cup.
And to think that the woman was dating him until weeks before, and now he's got to be the most eligible bachelor in all of Spain.
Yeah, I mean, to be on the rebound, everyone wants to have sex with you.
Right. It's way different than if you're the person that missed the shot or let the goal go in.
Yeah, didn't the person who missed the penalty kick for Columbia threaten to get murdered?
Yeah, that's what's going on there. That was from Vanessa. She said, I'll murder you.
I'm going to kill you.
There's a lot of death threats.
It's got death threats.
So think about that for just a moment if you're ending a relationship.
You want to make sure that you're not ending the relationship right before something great is going to happen for the person.
Because all these stories are, I mean, it's like insult to injury.
on top of everything else.
Yeah, I know.
I think it's, I mean,
it's something that you have to,
the worst part about it, I think,
is that you have to convince yourself
that it still was the right choice
when there's a huge part of you going,
damn it, I should have just stayed
with that person.
Right, that would have been,
yeah, I mean, like 818.
Maybe it wasn't your choice, though.
Who says, my ex-boyfriend,
we broke up, got promoted,
and instantly salary tripled.
See, that's one of those things
where it's, once again, money-based,
but you go, like,
this was someone that I go,
you're never going to be able to provide.
I can't possibly think about,
and then break up and then all of a sudden get this huge promotion.
Well, 818 said they broke up with their boyfriend who was a struggling actor,
really thought he was going nowhere.
A week after we broke up, he got a major role on a series
that's been still on for the last seven years.
His name is Brad Pitt.
He's had quite a run, and I blew it.
So think about that for a moment.
Universal Studios, Hollywood, we've got your tickets.
A four-pack, and if you want them, you call and claim them at 800-520-1067.
Let's go.
It's KROQ, Klein Alley Show.
KROQ, we are Klein Alley Show, and you are Megan.
Good morning.
Hi, good morning.
You are the 20th caller at this exact moment,
so we'd love to send you to Universal Studios Hollywood
to experience the new Fast and Furious ride, all right?
Oh, my gosh.
Thank you so much.
I really appreciate it.
Thank you.
You are very welcome.
You and three friends and or relatives, the choice is yours,
or you can bring one of us if you'd like.
okay i'll bring three friends thank you okay great thank you i'll find three friends that's
okay you do whatever you want to with the tickets they're as good as yours uh universal studios
hollywood congratulations if you want to win and you didn't win those tickets don't worry we have
more of them for you tomorrow and if you want to win your way into a festival in santa monica
we have that for you coming up a little bit later uh ally a lot of messages on the goat
line about different things that happened on the show yesterday this person's not happy with us
for a real reason.
Klein, you son of a bitch.
I thought LeBron was going to be making,
you were going to announce that he finally made
his announcement where he's going.
But we had to hear that he has never been intimate with Jake,
which I don't blame him because, honestly,
that's pretty damn disgusting.
But you son of a bitch, Klein.
Damn it.
A lot of people thought that the LeBron announcement,
which everyone's been waiting for, if you still care.
There's plenty of people that don't care.
Well, a lot of people do care, though, because he's a soap opera,
and I think that people will want to figure out if he's going to go make this super team
and, you know, Golden State with all their oldies,
or if he's going to go back to Miami or end his career in Cleveland.
I think he's going to pick a team and then fart around for a few years
and not win a championship.
Well, we don't even have to speculate, Allie, because we can go ahead and ask him.
We have this as...
The time has come. I am ready to share my plans for the future.
After careful consideration, I will be allowing Allie's unborn baby to make my announcement for me.
Oh, great.
Turn up the mics, Omar.
What's nice is that we're combining two bits that I hate.
It's amazing, Omar, that he knows you.
He knows the technology.
Allie's two least favorite bits.
And now a super terrible bit.
That's okay.
We're not going to listen to Allie's baby just yet.
No, he hasn't thought of that line yet.
Allie hates the bit so much that we can't do it.
It puts her in the worst mood.
And I don't know which one she hates worse.
The LeBron making the announcements
or the listening to your unborn baby?
Well, because also the logistics of this LeBron stuff
during the show is so annoying.
The behind-the-curtains part is very annoying.
What are you talking about?
You just talked to him.
Yeah, I know.
It's all real.
You're right.
I'm wrong.
Did you not hear this?
The time has come.
I am ready to share my plans for the future.
After careful consideration,
I will be allowing Ali's unborn baby
to make my announcement for me.
Turn up the mics, Omar.
I mean, it's amazing.
He knows exactly how it works here.
It's way funnier the second time.
Do you want to play it a third time and see if it's even funnier?
I think it'll be funnier the third time.
Try it.
In a moment, Allie, we're going to turn the mics off,
and we're going to hear what the announcement is from your unborn baby.
All right, write fast.
No, we don't have to write anything.
It's after Sublime on K-Roll.
You want to see that band, Sublime, right there in Santa Monica?
We're going to make that happen for you coming up very soon.
In fact, we have tickets for you in the 9 and 10 o'clock hours,
so you can go to the brand-new festival just announced,
and you will get to go to the beaches of Santa Monica,
see the Killers, Jack White, Sublime, and many others.
It's Ocean Way Festival, and tickets coming up pretty damn soon.
So be ready.
You're such a bitch.
You're such a...
You don't want to hear the...
All right, you don't want to...
I have it here.
Allie doesn't want to hear it from her own child.
That's fine.
LeBron T is the big announcement.
What's funny is, again, the fact that I get emailed and say,
please load this into the system.
Well, we got a problem with...
The bit that you hate.
It's...
Sure, I'll drag it right over.
You have a baby growing inside of you.
That baby has things to say.
Everyone, I think, is entitled to hear what your unborn child...
Is that the file you're looking for, Allie Baby Reply?
I don't know what it is, because it's actual real footage from your baby.
It's the microphone down there.
It's the microphone down there.
We'll be turning it up.
Right.
How else could we hear your heartbeat, Allie?
What will you give me to drag this in right now?
I don't love the...
How much do you love this?
I don't love the bit either, but I like it more than you do.
Oh, the mics have been turned up.
All right, here you go.
All right.
Enjoy.
LeBron.
Do you need the setup again from LeBron?
No, I don't
I mean, this would be the third time you're playing it
The time has come
I am ready to share my plans for the future
After careful consideration
I will be allowing Ally's unborn baby
To make my announcement for me
Turn up the mics, Omar
I've been waiting for this
No one is waiting
Let me turn it up
Can you turn it up so we can hear?
Hello, is that Ally's baby?
Ally, can you put the mic down there by your tummy?
Sure, there it is
Thanks, LeBron
I plan on being the Bronnie James of my family.
Okay.
I have to go now.
My mommy's trying to steal office supplies by putting them up here with me.
Oh, a highlighter.
Oh, God, Allie.
Jesus Christ.
Wasn't that worth it?
Yeah, actually, that was worth it.
Okay, good.
That is how Allie takes office supplies from the building.
Highlighters are expensive.
All right, kid's got a highlighter to play with in there.
All right, thank you.
I'm glad I'm returned with the mics for that.
Well, if you didn't enjoy that, you will definitely not like what we have in store for you next,
which is an entire hour with Allie's unborn baby.
No, that's not true.
We'll be back in a moment.
We have news to get to.
And then Gen Wars, bragging rights for you and your entire generation.
And Johnny hit the streets to ask hot women if they agree that Cars is a great movie.
He believes every hot woman on the planet likes the movie Cars.
You know what?
I was thinking about this.
It is, I think, one of my sister's favorite movies.
Oh, she's, how does that come?
And I think that was like a growing up movie for her, like a big, you know, that was her Little Mermaid.
Right.
Oh, Cars.
So that's why.
Right.
It's nostalgic.
I mean, this was just some of what Johnny, his investigative report with hot women.
So I try to get an argument that hot girls love the movie Cars.
What's your name?
Becca.
And do you like the movie Cars, the Disney Pixar movie?
Duh.
So just a sampling of some of the hot women he chatted with.
Duh, what am I not hot?
There's Becca that he's talking to about Cars as well.
Although, Johnny, we'll get into this later, but it's a little flawed with how you ask the questions
because you went in there already skewing the answer by saying.
So I try to get an argument that hot girls love the movie Cars.
What's your name?
Of course, you're going to start with that.
Everyone wants to be considered a hot woman.
And they're like, tee-hee, hi, I love cars.
Should have just gone up to women and just said, do you like the movie Cars?
And that's the secret.
They get flattered instantly because they're like, oh, he's asking me.
That's the secret?
That's the secret?
Discounts?
Yeah, it means everything you're doing is wrong here.
Discounts?
Because it's a...
Making the argument.
Hot girls love the Disney Pixar movie Cars.
What's your name?
Nitris.
Ooh.
Nitris.
So here's my problem, Johnny.
You're leading
You're leading the witness
To exactly what you want them to say
It's not objective journalism right there
It's a problem
We've got 40 of these here
You talk to a ton of hot people
We don't know that
I mean listen
You started each interview like this
So I try to get an argument that hot girls love the movie Cars
What's your name?
Becca
Here's another one
So I'm making the argument that hot girls love the movie Cars
The Disney Pixar movie Cars.
Do you love Cars?
Yeah, who doesn't?
So what do you love about Cars?
So it's like, he starts with it that way, Allie.
That's the problem.
And they're like, yeah, of course, right.
Even if they had a neutral opinion about the movie Cars, they're going to say absolutely it's great.
They want to be a hot woman.
Right, exactly.
So the whole thing is flawed.
So we're going to talk to Allie's baby instead.
We'll come back.
We have more show.
You like the movie Cars, baby?
Put the microwave down.
Let's do some ADB news this morning
on Klein Alley's show
and then a brand new hour will officially begin
that's the hour we get you to the festival
on the beach in Santa Monica
happening in September
with the killers
Jack White, Sublime and others
and if you're trying to win your way in
hopefully you're paying attention
to everything that happens on today's show
so you can be a part of the quiz
happening after 10 o'clock
if you just want to win the old-fashioned way
by calling in and joining us
well you can do that
during a round of Generation Wars
that'll be happening next hour
So be ready. Millennials, Gen X, Gen Z, and boomers battling it out to win your way into the festival.
That'll be coming up next hour. Right now, though, there's this.
Grab your Adderall. It's time for ADD News.
Well, they were almost done putting Sunset Boulevard back together after that big-ass pipe burst.
They had fixed the pipe. They'd done testing on it, sanitized it.
Then they started filling the hole with truckloads of concrete.
They were about to start paving over all of it, putting finishing touches last night.
And then they noticed some water coming up from the concrete.
So they think there's a leak there of some kind.
They now have to undo their work, dig a hole in the new concrete to get back in there and figure out what's going on.
They were going to have that all opened up today, but now it just goes to show when the city of L.A. works on something, nothing gets done right, well, or on time.
And on top of all of that, this morning we have another water valve leak where Santa Monica Boulevard is now flooding in West Hollywood.
I believe there was also last week another leak that had happened in Sherman Oaks.
So it's kind of like a whack-a-mole situation where all of these leaks and valve bursts are kind of popping up here and there.
And they're trying to get it all under control.
And I know everyone's been scared about the big one coming.
But what if we all just end up underwater, guys?
if all of the rest of these pipes just burst at once.
You saw what happened with one big-ass pipe bursting in West Hollywood.
That happens across all of SoCal?
It does.
We're done, son.
It's going to be like a Waterworld situation.
Yeah, we're going to be Waterworld.
We have to drink our pee.
That's why I've been watching that show, the Waterworld Stunt Show,
greatest live theater out there on the planet,
preparing for this opportunity.
What have I been saying, Allie?
What's the one item I say I've got to get?
What's my one wish list item?
Rich guy item, got to get it?
Rich guy item.
Jet ski.
The jet ski.
Talk about the jet ski.
I need to get a jet ski.
Now's the time.
You know, of all...
It sits in your garage until you need it.
When L.A. becomes Waterworld situation, the people with the jet skis...
You're flying high, baby.
I know it from that stunt show.
It's the jet ski people.
They're the ones who run things.
I know.
It's funny because people that have electric cars are like, cool, when gas runs out, I'll
have something.
And then the gas people are like, ha, when the power grid goes out, I've got something.
But the jet ski people...
They're the ones that really got it.
They're the ones that got it.
They're the ones that got it.
Gotta get a jet ski.
that have been rebooted.
Why has Waterworld not happened?
The movie was a total fail.
I mean, it cost them...
But I feel like it's a cult classic in a way.
Like, everyone remembers that movie.
No, I don't think most people do.
I think it was a skipper,
and I think it cost a ton of money to make.
I think that's the main problem.
And I think in the process of them making the movie,
the sets kept sinking.
There was a whole problem they had there,
and then it made no money at the theaters.
And I think it was kind of stupid
because the whole thing was like,
everyone was like,
hey, man, I'll sell you some dirt.
And they're like, yeah, you got dirt?
I know, that's why it's funny.
I got to recycle pee.
That was the proof that you knew where land was
If you showed dirt
That's why I think people have the soft spot for it
I think that's how the movie opens by the way
He's peeing
It's kind of like cast away but water
He's just like by himself most of the time
He could be living it and it's crazy
Them having to fix that thing
It's no different than any of us trying to build something from Ikea
Getting to the last piece and then realizing
We didn't put the first piece in and having to undo everything
Or you do what a lot of people do
Which is ignore
Right, just a couple extra pieces.
If you're the one who saw that leak, you should have covered it up.
Right.
Just keep moving and see how long that becomes.
Move it along.
I believe Vanessa was the one who predicted that in 2026, group dating and group singles events would become a thing.
It seems like a lot of our predictions are coming true because Tinder announced they are expanding their in-person singles events after tons of success here in L.A.
They've held events like rooftop yoga and hiking excursions and brewery meetups.
And what's cool about it is that you can see ahead of time who's going.
So say you're interested in someone who maybe hasn't swiped on you, this is your chance to meet them in person and shoot your shot.
Or on the other side, if it looks like there's a bunch of weirdos going, you can say, I'm not going to go to that rooftop yoga.
They're going to expand it to nine more cities, New York, Dallas, Denver, Kansas City, Phoenix, Berlin, Munich, Zurich, and Geneva.
And by September, they're going to expand it to 16 more markets like Baltimore and San Jose and so on.
I don't think we need all these events for singles, but I do think that we should officially put some sort of a dress code in effect that just lets people know when you're going out in public if you are single, married, dating.
I mean, for a while, it was the wedding ring was a good indication, but I think a lot of people don't wear them anymore, and I think people that wear them still doesn't mean much anymore.
I think there should be a ring for singles.
There should just be a very easy way to tell in the world who's single and who's not.
I know single people are tired of getting hit on all the time.
Jorts lets you know you're single.
Thank you, Jake.
That is the international sign that Jake is single.
It's yours.
Well, she had another date, by the way.
All right, and we're going to keep the hot news flowing.
They have discovered one of the worst animal hoarding cases of all time.
This did not happen in California.
This happened in Florida.
But they rescued 80 cats and 12 dogs with what they are calling one of the country's worst animal hoarding cases of all time.
It was so bad that a USPS worker had been collecting feral cats along her mail route
for months before they discovered what was going on.
Here are some of the hot details.
There is no air conditioning in that house.
The smell is so bad right here.
The stench was unreal.
We're talking about, in some places, a foot of animal feces in that house.
Oh, wow.
There's one of the cats now.
What do you think?
That is terrible.
A foot of animal feces?
Oh, this was a, you say, a USPS employee?
No, no, no.
So one of the U.S., like one of the postal workers had been collecting feral cats along her route because there were so many escaping the house.
It wasn't, she wasn't the one responsible, but she was one of the people who led to them discovering this.
Their crates were caked on with feces.
The cats drank for 15 minutes straight and we were constantly refilling their water bowls.
Ever since yesterday, we've been getting calls back to back, basically of people offering to help, people wanting to adopt or foster.
And the 12, I mean, that's such a ratio, right?
80 cats versus 12 dogs.
Because cats are like hamsters.
They'll just breed.
It's just like you put two cats together and like in three weeks you'll have 20,000 cats.
Ugh, what a disgusting situation.
They should let that, whoever that hoarder was, they should let the animals all feast on their body.
Cool.
To make it even.
I mean, I wonder though what the person, like the person was obviously just a hoarder.
And I feel like when it's little by little, just a little bit of feces every day, a little more, a little more.
and then before you know it, you've got a foot of feces
and you don't know what happened to you.
Well, if you're not...
Foot of feces, by the way. Good band name.
Great, great band name.
I haven't seen him this weekend.
Jake probably is.
He's got a shirt.
Warm handsy.
We get into a brand new hour of the show right now.
Here we go.
This is the world famous K-Rock.
According to someone much smarter than we are on the text line,
the galvanized pipes, Sally, that have been bursting
were installed in the 40s.
So they are 80 years old now.
And that is the stuff that really needs to be replaced because if not, that's just going to keep on popping, popping, popping.
Now, I would argue stuff that was probably built in the 40s is probably still better made than a lot of the stuff we're making now.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
And it probably wasn't put in with, like, sustainable materials necessarily.
No, they were using all that good cancer-led stuff.
Yeah, yeah.
But if you have to replace all of that at once, and we're just still a couple years away from the Olympics.
That's right.
Let's go ahead and get our infrastructure in good tip-top shape.
as we welcome the world to Southern California.
We've got lots to get to this hour.
Good morning.
Welcome to the Klein Alley Show.
If you're a new listener or you are confused
as to what the hell you are listening to, that's okay.
That's a normal feeling to have at this point in the process.
We're confused most of the time as well.
I'm Klein.
There's Alley.
That is DJ Omar Khan right there.
Jake the Nerd in the back taking the calls.
You've got producer Vanessa and postmaster Johnny,
800-520-1067 to interact with the show this hour.
Here's what we have in store for you.
Gen Wars could result in you not only getting bragging rights for your entire generation,
but tickets to see bands that represent many generations
as they head to Santa Monica, California for the Ocean Way Festival.
You'll be seeing The Killers, you'll be seeing Jack White, you'll be seeing Sublime,
you'll be seeing many others, and you'll be at the first official Ocean Way Festival to ever happen
from the team that brought you Coachella.
So be ready to win your way into that coming up later this hour on the show.
Plus, we will meet the neighbors in moments
and find out what's happening in our neighborhood and yours
after this one from OutKast on KROQ.
Good morning.
KROQ, we're a Klein Alley Show.
We all live in different parts of Southern California,
and Vanessa's all the way in Long Beach.
Allie's in the Deep, Deep Valley.
Omar's in Rancho Cucamonga.
Jake, of course, doesn't leave his little shack in Burbank.
And as a result, there's things happening in neighborhoods all over the place.
Most people report on these things on the many apps available to you,
Ring, Nextdoor, Citizen, Neighborhood.
And these were designed, I think, to bring people closer together,
especially in a big city, you know, where they go,
oh, we'll still feel like we're neighbors.
We can all share recipes and stuff.
It's turned into something quite different than that.
It's time for us to find out what's happening in your neighborhood
and ours as we meet the neighbors.
Meet the neighbors.
That's what you gotta do.
Say hello, shake a hand, share a smile, and make a friend.
Meet the neighbors, their dog just crept in your yard.
The song that was written and performed by Ali's real-life neighbor, Ray.
Who's still making music.
Still making music.
It's been too long since we've had Ray.
Maybe he comes by one day and hangs out with us.
Or gets the words to the songs he wrote.
His live version of Meet the Neighbors was even better.
I don't know where we have that, but that was one of my favorites.
You should get him to do a BF Thursday song.
Yes!
You know what?
Let's get ready to work.
Fee of Thursday.
Same thing.
Dogs just trapped in my yard.
What's happening in your neighborhood, Jake?
Oh, man, this is breaking news.
Another coyote sighting.
Only, the guy says this, a wolf has been spotted in the neighborhood.
No way.
Neighbors, please watch out for your kids.
And he posts a picture of what obviously is a coyote.
And people say, that's not a wolf, that's a coyote.
And he said, I know a wolf when I see one.
That's definitely a wolf.
Is it a coyote?
Oh, it is most definitely a coyote.
Yeah.
I mean, I feel like we all are very familiar with what they look like at this point.
Right, but I could see...
They're like scrappy.
Wolves are like big.
Also, coyotes are always limping.
Or they're like hopping around.
They're just like beep, beep, beep.
I've never seen a coyote that doesn't have at least one wonky leg.
Because, you know, they're constantly...
They're living out in the wild.
Right, so they always have an issue.
Life is tough out there.
Wolves are...
They're like a noble animal.
They're like the prissy little bitches of the forest, I imagine.
Yeah, but so this guy is, how many comments on that out of curiosity?
Oh, 400-something.
That's crazy.
People love to be experts, and they love to call people out on being wrong.
Especially an expert on a coyote, like a very simple thing.
As a joke, like last year, I put up a picture of a coyote on my street,
and I said, adopt, don't shop, or something like that about dogs, you know?
And so many people were like, that is not a dog.
Like, that's a coyote.
It's like, obviously, it's an effing coyote.
Like, it's so clearly, it's a coyote.
I don't think you wasted time doing that.
I did that twice.
Yeah, it's fun to troll people.
Yeah, it's fun.
People get real upset really easily.
Allie, what's happening in your neighborhood?
Well, there's a lot of back and forth about summer jobs.
And so there's been a few things that I kind of came across.
One woman is trying to find a high school senior to work at her soup stand at the farmer's market.
But I wanted to share an actual...
Soup stand?
How can that be doing this time of year?
She's in a soup business.
She said business is good and she needs help from a high school junior or senior.
Yeah.
Like a soup kitchen or like soup?
No, like she makes soup and sells soup at the farmer's market on Sundays.
And she said she's doing so well, she needs somebody to help her.
I mean, could you think of one thing you'd rather eat less when it's 100 degrees outside than soup?
It says we've become quite busy, which we are thrilled about.
However, it's hard for one person to sample the product, fill the orders, and also give our wonderful customers the attention they deserve.
Are you sure she's not talking about like gazpacho soup, the cold soup?
I think it's a lot of different kinds of soup.
I'm actually kind of interested.
Oh, man.
But there's a woman named Victoria who put up a post, and I wonder if this kid is excited by this or overwhelmed.
She said, this weekend, there was a young man who knocked on my door to see if I wanted our trash cans cleaned.
I said, yes.
He came back at 4 p.m. on trash day.
He used his power washer and cleansers to make our trash cans look like new and only charge $10 a can.
I highly recommend him.
His name is Teg, and he'll be a senior at Oaks Christian this coming year.
Let me know if you'd like his number.
there are hundreds of comments about this and she has given his number to every single one of those
people businesses saying i want to hire tag people saying i want him to do our entire yeah our entire
neighborhood so this guy's power wash himself a better name his personal number has been given
out to every single person i'm like dude this dude is making bank off of this side hustle like
what a great side hustle that he's like i'm just gonna knock on some doors and clean out some trash
cans this summer there are so many uh you know tiktok videos that'll basically be like do you
want to own a portion 30 days here's what you do and they go they go clean five trash cans at ten
dollars a trash can do it for two months and you and this is like a tiktok thing i'm not sure if
it's the cleaning trash kids any of any power apparently all you need is a power washer you
get one power washer and uh you could do uh you can clean driveways you could charge 10 bucks to
have your trash cans clean just so some other neighbor can throw the dog crap in there well
Oh, I'm going to want tag's number too.
It's weird because you think to yourself, how much do I care about what the inside of
my trash can is like?
I mean, I don't think about it ever, but then you're like, oh, if they're clean and there's
going to be less flies and grosses around.
Every couple of weeks, I get someone who puts a thing that goes, hey, we're spray painting
the numbers on the curbs outside your house.
And it's like 10 bucks.
How would you like us to spray paint your house number?
And I go, I don't think I want people knowing my house number.
Yeah, but then it looks all nice and clean.
It looks clean.
People pay it.
And what's it cost?
What's it take them to do that?
Three minutes to do it?
And they're making, you know, 10 bucks, 20 bucks.
They're doing that up and down the street all day.
I thought people's side hustles were not making them as much money.
I'm noticing some very successful side hustles.
And it's like these kids getting summer jobs.
You don't need to get a real job.
Just make one up.
This guy's like a young DJ Omar Khan.
He's probably going house to house.
Probably going to bank.
You're right.
If he's doing $10 a can, he's doing, he could probably do 20, 30 cans a day easy.
I know.
But then if you are in a heat wave and you've got hundreds of orders now of you're just power washing trash cans for eight hours a day.
And, yeah, you're making money.
But how much are people like how much did you think this was going to be?
But how much are people also really going to inspect the inside of their can once they're done?
I mean, the screenshots this woman put up, they look beautiful.
Yeah, I never really I've never.
Unless this is all a scam.
No, you think she's a brand new can?
Yeah, they're brand new cans and Teg's just scamming everyone.
What's going on in your neighborhood?
In Valley Village, a woman says, I need some advice.
Her name is Auburn.
Does anyone have advice on keeping my apartment cool during this crazy heat wave?
I'm open to any suggestions except putting tinfoil on my windows.
Even if there's something to buy, like a certain fan or blinds, I'll give it a shot.
I've been running my wall unit, and it's just not doing the trick.
It's a bad heat wave when you know that even your AC unit is not cooling off where you live.
It's giving up.
Or just can't, it's working too hard.
So the first comment is, have you tried tinfoil on the windows yet?
It reflects sun.
And she says, that's the one thing I said I don't want to do.
To which the second comment is, I would recommend using tinfoil.
Oh, wow.
Does that really work?
Everyone is giving her brands of tinfoil to use.
Reynolds works best for reflecting the heat.
Don't cheap out and buy the store brand tinfoil.
To which she says, I don't think anyone read my original comment.
I do not want to put tinfoil on my window.
They also keep the aliens out.
And someone said, tinfoils on the window is a great idea.
I'm going to do that.
Thanks, Auburn.
And she says, I'm asking for real recommendations, like blackout curtains, please.
And someone says, you know what makes the best blackout curtains?
Tinfoil.
Tinfoil, yeah.
So she's asking for real advice, and the neighbors are just having fun with her because she's refusing to put tinfoil on the window.
But also, the truth is, you have to just joke because there is no solution.
It's hot.
It's just hot.
We live in a valley.
It's hot.
You're not going to get another fan that's going to blow the hot air out.
It's not going to fix anything.
I mean, that's the sad reality is that even like last year when my AC was completely shot for a month.
And this year when it was also shot.
And also shot this year.
And I tried it.
I had swamp coolers in there.
I was doing ice cubes by fans.
I was trying every possible trick you could have.
Yeah, 626 said swamp cooler from Home Depot, but you already did that.
I tried.
It made my whole place smell like a...
Like swamp water.
Or a tag would go down your shop.
Yeah, I bet you that guy would come by.
Tag.
Tag.
Power wash.
Go figure it out.
Power wash.
That guy can do everything for $10.
Got to take a quick break.
We're back in a moment.
Generation Wars is upon us.
If you would like to win your way into a festival that has just been announced happening in Santa Monica with the Killers,
with Sublime, and, of course, with Jack White,
you will get in if you are able to beat everyone from every other generation.
Four contestants, four generations represented, Gen X, Gen Z, Millennial, and Boomer,
battling it out over the airwaves of K-Rock.
Call now, play next, and win your way in.
plus bragging rights for you and your entire generation after this on KROQ.
Time for your Generation Wars on KROQ,
a chance for you to win bragging rights for your entire generation.
Looking for a boomer?
If you're a boomer and you can get to your rotary phone,
give us a call immediately at 800-520-1067.
We have our representatives from Gen Z, Gen X, and Millennial ready to go,
and we are looking for you, boomer,
so we always have to give you a little extra time
and make the announcement just a little louder.
If you are a boomer and would like to participate,
you could win your way into a festival in Santa Monica,
and that is all coming up right now
in this exciting edition of Generation Whore.
Oh, it's going to be a real test of knowledge.
Figure out which generation wins this week.
I don't remember who won last time we did this, Allie,
but I feel like we were on a...
I think it was Gen X.
Gen X, back to the glory spot where they believe they always belong.
So here we go.
Up for grabs, tickets, Ocean Way Festival.
It's happening on the beach in Santa Monica, September 26th.
And all you have to do is listen all week, 9 to 6 p.m. on KROQ for your chance to win tickets.
Right now, though, the winner of Generation Wars will be at Ocean Way Festival,
listening to bands that span many generations.
We say good morning now to, oh, let me open up some of these phone lines.
If you are a boomer and you would like to participate, you can call now, 800-520-1067.
We've got open lines now for you boomers.
Let's say good morning to our representation from Gen X.
Her name is Corin, and she doesn't give a crap about nothing.
And ain't that such a Gen X thing, Allie?
You know, it's funny because my wife and I were talking last night.
She has a lot of different clients from different generations, and she said that Gen X is by
far the most stubborn.
Oh.
Would you agree?
Set in their ways.
Corinne, are you a stubborn lady?
Absolutely.
And it's Corinne, by the way.
Oh, see that?
They'll get it right.
Oh, wow.
That is pretty goddamn stubborn.
Only to say your name.
Stubborn about me saying your name correctly.
Corinne, born in 1978, is representing all of Gen X.
So hold on, Corinne.
and you'll be playing if you know the answer to these questions
that will go across all generations.
You must answer by yelling out Gen X.
Wait for Allie to call on you before you lock in your answer.
We say good morning now to our millennial representation,
born in 1985, big fan of playing Crash Bandicoot.
Bandicoot. Crash Bandicoot.
Crash Bandicoot on PlayStation.
I never got so annoyed because I remember seeing that game,
and I was never allowed to have video games in my house.
It was a no-video-game house.
No sugar, no sugar, no video.
Now look at you.
Sucked.
I know.
You're a creature of indulgence.
Hey, good morning to Kat.
Good morning, Kat.
Hi.
Good morning, Sweet Divots.
Sweet Divots to you.
You are born in 1985, and you are representing all millennials.
So good luck to you if you know the answers to these questions that may be before your time or after your time.
Just answer by yelling out, millennial.
Wait for Allie to call on you.
And when she does, you better lock in your answer and make sure it's the right one, okay?
Copy.
All right, we move on now, and we say good morning from the generation known as Gen Z.
The world likes to blame Gen Z for lots of problems.
Well, millennials were blamed for a lot of problems, too, about 10 years ago.
And I know you don't believe this now, Gen Z, but you'll start blaming Gen Alpha for a lot of stuff soon enough.
So we say good morning to Kaylee, born in 2001.
She didn't even know that maps came in paper form ever.
She was shocked to learn that.
Is that true, Kaylee?
yeah i think my before i started driving my dad showed me his like thomas guide
oh he still had it in the car i thought it was ridiculous it is ridiculous i mean it was
ridiculous you saw that thing on a time capsule now you would think to yourself oh my good like
how did anyone get anywhere right that thing's like you would see that now and you would go
like that seems like something christopher columbus would have used but now i understand
why my dad is obsessed with like roadways right he wants to know how i got places what freeways
i took i'm like i did google maps i don't know we say good morning now to a man born in 1963 he is
a boomer uh he believes that uh doing yard work is a great way to spend time and he is retired
we say good morning to kent good morning kent and welcome to generation wars
hey good morning i don't think yard work is a good thing to do i just have to do it
oh okay excuse me yeah boomers hate fun that's right so you do everything is about work work
I've got to do yard work just because I've got to do it.
All right, once again, it's Kent representing Boomers,
Kaylee representing Gen Z,
Kat representing Millennials,
and Corinne, did I get it right that time?
No, it's Corinne.
Corinne representing Gen X.
All right, hands on your buzzers.
Here we go.
If you know the answer, yell out your generation.
If you're not answering, please be quiet.
It's time for Generation Wars to officially begin now on KROQ.
Question number one.
This brand of team jackets was associated with gang activity and banned from some schools.
Millennial.
Millennial, go ahead.
Starter?
Starter jackets.
Nice job.
That is the correct answer.
You are on the board.
And we go to this next question.
What was the name of the robot made from the Jetsons?
Kinect.
Gen X.
Judy.
No, not Judy.
Oh, Rosie, Rosie.
Cannot accept your second guess, and you've yelled out the answer, so we have to move on.
Now we have to move on now because she yelled it out.
Disqualified question.
Disqualified.
The answer was Rosie.
If you get the answer wrong, please say nothing else so that we can just move on.
What was the catchphrase famously used by Detective Steve on the original Hawaii Five-0?
Boomer.
Yes, Boomer.
Book them, Dano.
That is correct.
That is correct.
Is that something you still say in everyday conversation, Ken?
Oh, yeah.
I used to with my wife.
Yeah, I believe it.
Every time.
As soon as we're done with dinner.
I just want your Chipotle order.
Book them, Dano.
Moving on to your next question.
Allie, we've got a tie going on in Generation Wars.
Millennial and Boomer.
Guys, this brand of velvet tracksuit oftentimes had words or phrases written right there on the butt.
Gen X.
Gen X.

answers. You are on the board.
And now, Allie, what is happening?
Four-way tie.
Everyone's got one. Generation Wars.
Who was the principal
of Bayside High School?
Gen X.
I heard first. Go ahead.
Mr.
Boulder. Mr. Boulder?
Boulder.
Can't not accept that. Boomer, go ahead.
Belden.
Mr. Belden.
Principal Belding is the correct answer.
All right.
Boomer's ahead now.
That was close. Boomer has moved ahead.
I'm shocked that Boomer got a question about Saved by the Bell.
We will go to this next question.
What was the viral dance craze introduced by Soulja Boy?
Millennial.
Yes, Millennial.
The Superman?
I will accept that.
Cranked Out the Superman is correct.
Now Millennial and Boomer are tied for first place.
Book them, Dano.
We'll move on.
All right, Ken.
We'll move on to your next question.
generation wars um mr sketch markers were not just colorful but they also did what
god i heard gen x first next squeaking in on the barely by a by just a short little
pube what's up uh gen x they were scratching so you can smell the the flavor that they were
yeah you don't have to scratch them but they were sniffable that is correct the mr uh mr sketch
the best smelling you can always tell if someone had an addiction if they constantly had like uh
purple lines on their nostrils
until they were hooked on the Mr. Sketch.
Helped get through class just to sniff those markers.
We move to your next question.
It is Generation Wars. This iconic
brand of super strong ozone depleting
hairspray is what kept high bangs
in the 80s.
Gen X.
Gen X.
Rave?
No.
I didn't want to steal
this one. Got you. No, Jake.
You cannot play.
The correct answer.
Come on.
Go ahead, Jake.
Aquanet.
Jake has a point.
Great.
Jake, you cannot win this game.
It was back then the best way to kill spiders.
Aquanet was?
Oh, my God.
That would create such a massive flame.
Oh, yeah.
If you were to use this.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, flamethrower.
It was like a flamethrower.
We move on now.
There's only a handful of questions left.
Allie, what is the current score in Generation Wars?
Now, Gen X, Millennial, and Boomer are all tied, but two points.
Here we go.
as we go to your next question.
The hip-hop group Criss Cross
was known for what interesting fashion choice?
Millennial.
Millennial.
They wore their clothes backwards.
They did wear their clothing backwards.
That is correct.
Criss Cross would wear their clothing
completely backwards.
No one saw it coming.
With their hit single,
I Missed the Bus.
Is that what it was?
Was that one of their hit singles?
That was one of them.
Wow, Allie.
You don't know that one?
No.
I want to challenge that, Allie.
Thank you.
We move on to your next question.
Book them, Dano, as we move on.
It's Generation Wars.
The United States Postal Office, here we go, we're coming your way, Kent,
issued a stamp featuring the iconic boy eating watermelon,
which was the name of this classic Saturday Evening Post illustrator.
Gen X.
Yes, Gen X.
Norman Walkwell.
Wow, that is a correct answer,
a question that I thought was going to be stolen by the boomer,
talking about postage and paintings
and stolen by Gen X instead.
Okay, now we have Millennial and Gen X tied.
Guys, we're down to our final three questions
in Generation Wars.
Anyone still eligible to win this thing?
So here we go.
Your next question.
What does it mean if you have main character energy?
Gen X.
I'll put Gen Z.
I think I heard Gen Z too.
Go ahead.
it's like you're really narcissistic and you're um like everything revolves around you
yeah millennial millennial let me see if you have a better answer go ahead
gen x wait hype no i guess we'll accept the first answer it's oh it's acting confidence
confident i guess you come across as cocky i guess but it's the confidence self-importancy
yeah i will accept that is the first gen z you get the point on that one i'm sorry that i
questioned it and we move on to this next question only two left it's generation wars
every generation has a chance to try to answer here um if you were going to play mash what is
something you would figure out about yourself you'd figure out where you want to live that is
i will accept that yeah mash was that fun paper folding game that was played oftentimes and was
A was for mansion, A was for apartment, S was for shack, and H was for house.
Jake, congratulations, buddy.
You got the S.
You got the S. You live in a shack in MASH.
That is correct.
That is a correct answer.
Allie, with only one question left, do we have Gen X up by one?
Yep, Gen X is up by one.
This could be a back-to-back streak, or this maybe turns into a tie situation,
which would go to sudden death generation wars.
Describe the fashion trend, the whale tail.
Gen X.
Gen X.
Gen X.
this was my uh sorry to lose there uh you were a song and people could see your song hanging out
of your jeans that is a correct answer and uh congratulations uh to everyone uh book them

What a streak.
Allison Chains is what we had queued up, so
that's what we're going to give you instead on K-Rock. Good morning.
Jump, jump
You should know, you should know better
Oh, yes
You hear Criss Cross this morning?
Well, you're wrong
This is one of the answers to a Generation Wars question
This was the hit song
Criss Cross will make it
Ally brought up, of course, one of their not-hit songs
I missed the bus
I had their album
Ally was such a fan of Criss Cross, she gave us a deep cut
I did
I mean, I barely could think
Some people know
I remember this song, but like this, I could barely have remembered Jump as their hit song
and Allie brought up some waiting at the bus stop or some nonsense.
I know, this is probably the whitest thing I ever did,
was own this album and listen to it.
Al, you are wiggity, wiggity, wiggity whack.
It's not even on the record where the hit's on.
Yeah, where did you find that?
Do you want to hear the song?
Not really.
This was the crisscross song mentioned by Allie during Generation Wars.
i think these were also children if i'm not mistaken yeah they were oh yeah okay can you hear
it
if you're watching along on the youtube stream right now um you can you can watch ali do her
white lady dancing to this which is yeah real real real real oh no you know what i just found
it. Really? Yeah, you guys want to
hear something? Yeah, I want to hear it. This is Ali's song.
It is off their debut record.
I just didn't see it. Here it is.
Oh, no. Come on, raise it.
I miss the bus.
Yep.
I miss the bus.
I miss the bus.
And I won't never, never, never, never, never do it again.
I miss the bus.
I went to Bentley, but I didn't think they would affect me.
Only came around then late one left me.
Wake up, wake up, so I can get dressed.
I guess my body was mad
Cause I gave in to risk
And when I finally did awake
It was a quarter to eight
Jumped in the shower
And I knew I was late
Oh, terrible.
I said to myself
If I miss school, I'm ruined
Are they, uh...
Hey, Vanessa, uh...
Are they dead?
What happened?
It's a happier version of jump.
Yeah.
That's what it sounds like.
Is Criss Cross, uh...
Are they dead?
Are they bookable?
Like, are they doing, like, uh...
Oh, no, I think they still, like, you know,
do a show from time to time.
What would it cost for Allie...
Two dollars.
I may hire them to perform for Allie
while she's giving birth.
in the room.
What does it cost
to get crisscrossed
these days?
Chris, Mac, Daddy, Kelly,
he died already in 2013.
And then what about Daddy Mac?
Mac Daddy's going to die.
I think he's still alive.
You say he's dead, Jake?
All right, here,
Chris, Mac, Daddy, Kelly,
half of the 90s rap duo
Crisscross passed away
in 2013.
That is wiggity, wiggity,
wiggity whack.
That is whack.
Man, that sucks.
So is Cross available
for hiring?
hiring? Drug overdose, I guess.
Oh, my God!
Jesus Christ.
That is sad.
Now do you feel bad?
He's going to miss the bus. I feel bad.
Yeah, I didn't know what had happened, but I mean, I would
have thought that they would have been bookable and potentially
affordable to come. You could get one of them.
Can I get the one?
Daddy or Daddy Mac, I forget.
Yeah, Cross.
Is the other guy? Is he still performing?
A lot of bands lose a member.
It's ironic that Cross is the one who's alive.
Daddy Mac focuses on creative projects right now.
Well, don't we all?
All right.
Is there no reach-out number?
Come on.
Book him, Dano.
And by Dano, we mean Vanessa.
Yeah, book him, Vanessa.
That's our catchphrase.
We'll be right back.
Okay.
We have more show after this, believe it or not.
And you don't want to miss a moment because you could miss a moment like this.
And now, a moment with Allie.
Are you a thrill-seeker ride?
Do you like the water rides, or are you a lazy river person?
Glad I asked.
That was a moment with Allie.
Lots of stuff happening in the world.
Let's break down some of it right now with the check of the ADD News.
And then if you need to interact with us, you can.
Phones, text line, remain the same as yesterday.
And that number is 800-520-1067 or 323-TIP-BOLY if you dare.
I think that number still works, as a matter of fact.
which works great for us
because we got those hats
to give out
that limited edition
Klein Alley Show merch
and as we were deciding
what phrases we wanted
to put on this merch
I don't know why
we opted with
Tip Bowley
but for whatever reason
it was our phone number
for 24 hours
for the same reason
you guys decided
to eat the Taylor Farms
lettuce yesterday
but there's just no point
terrible
terrible decision
I'm regretting it
every moment
I'm not feeling great
and I know
it's probably too soon
for it to have affected me
in the way that it has
I think it's mental
for you
I think it affects
the incubation period
It is different in everybody.
I think your system maybe is just a little hyper-reactive to it.
Well, the problem is that now a bunch of other listeners have listened to our stupid show,
and then they've done similar things.
Hey, you guys, I just went by Ralph's.
I picked up a couple bags of Diarrhea Farms lettuce,
and I'm cooking burgers for lunch today at work for all the boys.
And I'm going to do a little experiment.
I'm going to sprinkle the shredded over the birds.
Hand them out?
No, no, no.
Don't do that.
Do not do that, guys.
This was a big mistake.
Because I regret it and a lot of things.
Is your tummy just rumbling or are you liquid from the neck down?
It's just been a bad 12 hours.
It's been a bad 12 hours.
And the only thing that I can think of that I did differently was I ate that stupid bag of lettuce yesterday.
Yeah, but you've also been living life very differently the last week or two because your kids have been gone.
Yeah, but it's not.
You're probably eating a lot of stuff you don't normally eat.
You're going out to eat.
I thought, you know, sometimes you go to Vegas.
You have a big weekend in Vegas.
You come back.
It takes you a few days to recover.
But I didn't feel bad on Monday and Tuesday.
So that doesn't mean that it's not catching up with you now.
I think, Allie.
The odds are that yesterday I decided.
Is anyone else feeling it from yesterday?
You know that lettuce, that Taylor Farms lettuce we ate during Row Lettuce?
It's hard to tell.
I just feel like that every day anyway.
That's Jake.
Vanessa, how are you doing?
Normal?
I feel good.
Nothing.
Johnny feels good, yeah?
Yeah, I'm normal.
I drenched mine in dressing, too, so I'm chilling.
All right, well, anyway, put that on the list.
You've got more of a sensitive Timmy.
Put that on the list of dumb ideas that we should never have done.
And I was pushing hard for it, guys.
I thought Row Lettuce was going to be, I thought that was going to be the thing we'd be remembered
by.
At your funeral.
Really?
Probably.
When you're the first cyclist
where I assist death.
Well, at least that's how I go out.
I want to go out
because of a dumb radio bit.
That's fitting.
Grab your Adderall.
It's time for ADD News.
Yeah, so a bit of an update on this.
How is the diarrhea going for America?
The outbreak of cyclists.
I pooped my pants
and I don't have underwear.
Oh, that's so important.
All right, Vanessa, thank you.
Now we're on the same page.
I think that's my least favorite drop.
I think I get a C
and that one gets to go.
No way.
No, you already vetoed one for a lifetime.
I can bring the other one back.
Yeah, remember the one you vetoed for a lifetime?
You already told Omar to stop playing it?
Yeah, I didn't play that out of respect for you.
Which one was that?
We don't need to remember
because if I veto it,
it was for a reason.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
You only get one veto.
It was like over-sexualizing her.
It was like, okay, yeah,
I won't play it anymore.
So the outbreak of psychospiralysis or whatever
started a little more than a month ago.
Taylor Farms Lettuce was the culprit,
which that affected Taco Bell.
So has it gotten better since then?
Let's find out.
Tonight, cases of that parasitic stomach illness
skyrocketing to record levels.
More than 11,000 people have been sickened in 41 states.
It comes just 24 hours after Health Secretary
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tried to reassure the public.
So it's not going on here.
Everybody's fine.
We've been doing a lot.
Is that Morris Joyce's brother, by the way?
They sound similar.
Yeah. Yeah. Do you want to do you want to hear what it sounds like tonight?
I do want to hear what he sounds like. Yeah, because I don't think anyone really feels that reassured by him anyway.
Most of the time, does the federal government have this outbreak under control right now?
We do have the outbreak under control. We have done extensive forensics, epidemiological forensics, and we've identified the source of the outbreak.
Feel better?
Man, if Psycho-Cyralis has had a voice, that's what the voice would be.
Yeah, for sure.
Taco Bell has also announced some food deals, by the way,
since they've had a 30% drop in business since this happened.
They're now offering entoritos and regular nacho fries for a dollar each,
making sure to point out that these items do not contain lettuce.
Wow.
That's intense.
I know.
Here's more from RFK.
Stomps and stomps and stomps.
Well, they're wearing their armor.
He even puts them in their mouth and then spits the armor out after he eats the soldiers.
All right, reenact that.
Thank you for that.
Jake kind of sounds like him, too.
They all sound like him.
That's contagious.
Another epidemic going around.
All right, times are hard.
Things are more expensive than ever.
And I know this is something that you shame me for, Klein, but people are doing it more as things continue to get more expensive.
Shoplifting is up.
More and more people are shoplifting.
I'm not talking about people just running in, shoving a bunch of items in their pants and running away.
This is just regular shoppers stealing small things here and there.
30% of people say they have shoplifted this year.
And what are they stealing?
The number one thing.
I know what it is.
What?
Well, based on how they lock stuff up now at the grocery store.
It's not a specific item.
It's a category.
Oh, okay.
Because I was going to say, lately it's been hard to get, like, laundry detergent is locked up.
Well, it is.
The main focus here is that it's everyday items.
It's not like.
It's going to be like toiletries or something.
Well, number one was food and drink.
So it's like a bag of chips or like a Snapple, not even alcoholic drinks, not even booze.
It's just like, I'm going to steal.
I'm going to keep this water under my cart or things like that.
Then the next category was clothing and personal hygiene products like deodorant or yeah, it could be laundry detergent, just things that you would pick up at the store normally.
And you're just like, you know what?
This is too expensive.
And that's the reason 90% of the people that admitted to doing this say it's just it's getting too expensive.
And I feel like I have to do this.
What if a grocery store had a promotion where, you know, you had to pay for most of it?
Every grocery store has a promotion if you steal enough.
You could steal one thing.
Because I think people like to, even if it's just a bottle of water,
people like to feel like they got one over on the man.
That's how they like to feel.
And they get away with it.
And they go, yeah, I just spent $150 on groceries,
but I didn't pay for this bag of grapes under the cart or whatever.
The idea that a store would allow you to steal one item.
Well, they wouldn't allow you.
Then everyone would just pick the most expensive item.
Yeah, I know.
They would.
but the store's still
going to probably do money
because they'll get more
business in there
and they're still
look if you're going in
and doing a full shop
and you're taking one item
the store's still doing fine
I'm curious to find out
what our resident shoplifter
shoplifted earlier this week
me?
yeah
yeah you are the
shoplifting
you're the one
who takes everything
god what did I take
the salsa member
are you for real
well the last time
the time before the last time
I stole a thing of water
like a whole thing
whoa
how'd you get away with that
they didn't check
under the car
I didn't even
Damn, under the cart.
Yeah, that still works sometimes.
When I was that, you know, I think it was some snack that my kid had.
And it was like, it was, I know what it was.
It was those like fruit roll-up type things.
And we went to an expensive grocery store where it was like 10 bucks.
And I was like, this is ridiculous.
And Wesley was holding them.
He was just holding them.
And then we just kind of went.
You just made that decision.
This is ridiculous, so I'm still in it.
That's the same thing her mom does, too.
This is ridiculous, so continue to hold that and we'll see what happens.
Okay.
Because that's not fair.
You didn't scan it.
Let me get this straight.
You chose to not scan it, throw it on the belt, and instead you said, you just keep holding this and I'll push you right through.
Or it doesn't look like it's stealing.
He was just around.
He wasn't even in the car.
He was just walking around.
And then if they go, hey, what is that?
Give me it.
You know, then we pay.
You're setting that kid up for a life of crime.
He doesn't know.
He doesn't know, but you know.
And he's been involved in a few different crimes, courtesy of you.
Well, my mother did have him steal a few things even when he was a baby.
I remember that.
She would take like, we'd be at Nordstrom or something, and she'd take a little stuffed animal and be like,
oh, here, let's put that in the car seat and keep moving and then just walk out.
What a terrible situation.
Hey, you know what?
The economy is a terrible situation.
You're right.
We're just doing what we can to get by, and I'm not alone.
One of the unfortunate victims of COVID was the Cinerama Dome on Sunset Boulevard.
It was an iconic place to see movies in L.A.
It was around for a long time, but it's been gone for six years now.
But Alamo Drafthouse is going to save it.
They say that they will reopen the Hollywood Arclight and they will put it back under the brand that they are known for, which is dine in curated programming and things like that.
It's got a nice nostalgic throwback feel.
And they said they do have to do some extensive renovations, but they they're going to start that next month.
They're going to shut it down.
And then they said an early 2028 reopening date is going to change the sign in the front because that's what I hope they don't change.
No, I don't think they should.
I feel like Alamo Drafthouse would honor the historic legacy of that.
I thought Quentin Tarantino was going to buy.
There was all these rumors of, you know.
There were some celebrities that were like, oh, we want to save it.
Right.
And then they probably saw what it was going to cost, what the rent is there.
And they go, all right, well, someone else can save it.
I'll just steal water from Fonz.
Fair enough.
All right.
Well, there you have it.
Look at what's happening, at least for now.
We will get into a brand new hour of the show in mere moments.
The greatest hour of your life, perhaps.
It's Clyde Angeles.
This is the world famous.
K-Rock.
Just after 10 o'clock on a Thursday.
Welcome to your pre-quin.
Be up Thursday if you choose to celebrate.
Enjoy yourself some breakfast for dinner.
And tag us in whatever meal you decide to prepare yourself.
A little dinner omelet and a bowl of cereal for dessert.
Nothing wrong with that.
We've got lots to get to this hour, including your tickets to Ocean Way Festival.
If you've been paying attention to today's show, we have a quiz in your future.
So there's your warning.
Study up or re-watch some of it right now up on YouTube where we are streaming live.
and download the podcast.
You can maybe even listen to an hour that already happened.
Catch yourself up.
Get ready to participate in the Klein Alley Show quiz
coming up later this hour.
Hey, Rock, we're the Klein Alley Show.
Someone's very upset with something that we did.
One of us did something that has bothered a listener so much so
that they left a very angry message on the GOAT line.
And before I play the message, Allie,
you want to place your bets on who has upset a listener
or a former listener, I guess I should say?
It doesn't sound like they'll be continuing to listen.
They sound very upset with something that was said on the show by someone.
I know that there were some things said yesterday that I thought would get us in trouble.
I'm going to go ahead and say that it was not something I said, but I was blamed.
Okay, so you are the culprit, but it was not your fault.
Yes.
Jake, got a guess, or did you load the goat line calls so you know the answer?
I loaded the goat line calls, yeah.
Okay.
Omar, I want to take a guess as to who's said something that's offended me.
was DJ Omar Khan. He plays those sound effects
all the time. Sometimes it's things we said
months ago. Maybe it's Vanessa calling to complain about him.
Out of context. You know what?
The only thing that I could think of was your remark
yesterday that was
on the line. Oh, yeah.
That lady's pissed.
On the line.
Yeah, I asked her about it.
There was a few things. There were probably three things
that jumped out for you yesterday. Well, let's not refocus
everything that was said yesterday. Let's just listen
to the message. Now, hold on.
Let's not turn this into a trial, guys.
Jesus, we all say things.
No, I had the audio from her.
Hold on.
Hi, this is in response to the comments made online about what you are going to do,
Klein is going to do to his wife while his kids are at summer camp.
And you repeated that to your children.
And as an elementary school teacher, I can tell you that your kids will go to school
and repeat those comments to other kids.
I told them, I said I was trying to...
I don't think you should repeat it.
Oh, go ahead.
You don't think I should repeat it again?
No, because I do think it was so gross, but go ahead.
Is this a balloon animal?
Yeah, turning mom into a balloon animal.
Huh.
And apparently that was...
Are you going to stand by it?
No, I think after hearing this woman's call, I'm not going to stand by it, but it's interesting.
I want to hear what she's going with it.
Listen to this, because she says what I did is as bad as the worst thing you could possibly do.
And laugh and snicker and make jokes, but not fully knowing.
It's the equivalent of calling somebody the, an analogy is calling somebody the N-word.
Whoa.
Whoa.
I don't know about that.
Me saying that I'm going to turn mommy into a balloon animal is the equivalent of me using the N-word.
I can't even.
I hear my balloon animal talk.
We're so far away.
She's so crazy for that, bro.
That is so out of, like, that is wild.
Maybe your other comment is as equal as an offensive analogy.
An analogy is calling somebody the N-word.
They don't know what it means.
And you're right.
your kids don't know what it means but they repeat it at school so you need to use better
judgment or better parenting skills with with your kids because it's grossly inappropriate
what you said to them um have a good day thanks i mean i agree with like 90 of what she said the
n-word part i don't agree with but it was gross and inappropriate they don't know what it is you
know what it is and you're saying it to your kids you're making a sex joke to your kids i'm not
making a sex you are they just don't know that that's what it is making a sex joke to my wife
Through your kids.
More of a threat to my wife.
You're using your kids to make a sex joke.
But it went over their heads, though, because it went over my head.
I don't even know what it means either.
So let me ask you a question then, Allie.
If the kids say, what are you going to do after we go to bed tonight?
You guys make us go to bed at 8 o'clock.
What do you do?
And my wife says, oh, Daddy and Mommy are going to play a little game.
That is not the same at all.
How is that not the same?
That's not even a joke.
Well, it's not a joke.
And it's just you guys playing around.
It's not you objectifying your wife into being a giant balloon animal because you've filled her with semen and bent her every single way.
No, that's not what a balloon animal is.
You don't even understand the comment.
I'm not filling her with anything.
I don't know if you're pregnant.
Are you crazy?
It's about bending her in every which direction, right?
We bend.
We bend.
She bends me.
I bend her.
We all bend.
Right.
She bends you.
Well, whatever.
I'm saying it's a balloon animal.
No one bends anyone.
The point is, Johnny, we don't need so many comments from Johnny.
Turn Johnny's mic off.
He's getting a little confident over there.
I'm just saying
it's a very graphic image
to paint of your wife
in front of your children
even though they don't know it.
Well.
But it's your life.
You say what you want.
I'm not saying
it's the equivalent
of the N-word,
but I get why she's grossed out
because I was grossed out.
She's my balloon anima.
I used to say A.
Balloon anima.
I think you often make
sexable references
to your wife
in front of your kids.
Do you not?
No, no, no.
No, no, no.
Not at all.
Not at all.
I thought that was a kid reference I was doing, like balloon animals.
They think those are fun.
Didn't you write a sex joke on a Valentine's Day card when you were filling out Valentine's Day cards with your kids?
Yes, but that was a problem because that was something I was just supposed to slide over to her and it ended up getting pulled.
But that was another sex joke made through your kids.
Not through my kids.
They weren't reading the card.
It was like I filled out a card to her, and it wasn't even that sexual, and I was trying to be cute and flirty.
Boom, passed it along to her, and it got mixed up with all the ones that went to class.
I was going to address the other thing you said yesterday.
Here's the, wait, hold on.
Did your wife find it cute and flirty, the balloon animal joke, or was she disgusted?
I'm pretty sure she was disgusted.
Do you want to, are you going to ask her?
She didn't like it.
Because, yeah, if I were a woman, I would not like that comment at all.
She, I don't think liked it.
And I probably wouldn't like it if it was made in front of my kids either.
Let me see if she remembers it.
The good thing is her memory is pretty much shot,
so I feel like most of it is...
That's good to bring it up.
Hey, we're on the air.
Do you remember what I told the girls I was going to do
to you while they were away?
What you were going to do to me?
And told them that I wouldn't be able to walk.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
That is even worse.
Hold on.
That was in reference to the balloon animal comment.
Remember?
Yeah, but you kept trying and mommy wouldn't be able to walk.
Whoa!
That's first of all.
Fine, this is disgusting.
I have my takeaway for today.
That is, you're leaving a lot of context out of this.
Okay, and did you like hearing that?
No, you probably traumatized the kid.
Okay, well, a teacher has called and said that it's the equivalent of me using the N-word.
What?
Yeah, I know.
It is.
It's not.
It's not the equivalent of that.
All right, would you appreciate it if Klein stopped making these jokes?
I'm done being flirty.
No more flirty talk.
You can be flirty, but you don't have to...
I'm not flirty, Kevin.
It's true.
It's not flirty.
Well...
It's just kind of objectifying.
All right, I'm done with it.
All right, so it's weird.
Thank you.
Okay, great.
Good. Thank you for joining.
I love you.
What?
That's it?
That's it.
We gotta go. We gotta go. We're late.
That's what she says after sex.
Every time. That's it.
I wasn't gonna be able to walk.
I can walk fine.
I can do cartwheels.
How's your walking these days?
Okay?
Ha ha.
Okay.
I don't know how this conversation got started yesterday, but Johnny has a theory,
and his theory is that any attractive woman thinks Cars is one of their favorite movies
or is the best Pixar movie, and we said, why Cars?
And he couldn't really explain why, and we called him out on this being a stupid theory.
And then he said he would go out and talk to attractive women
and find out if they're a fan of the movie Cars.
He really volunteered quickly.
It couldn't wait, and he doesn't volunteer for much.
And you would think that Johnny, you know, we were saying, where could you go and find just a ton of attractive women standing around?
And we gave him some suggestions, like go to the beach, or Erewhon, or Whole Foods, or outside of a gym or something.
Rodeo Drive.
Rodeo Drive, right.
Nice places, fans go.
Not hard to find hot people here.
Right, right.
There's a lot of attractive people in this city.
And we were impressed that he jumped on this opportunity so quickly
until I realized that his place to go to talk to attractive people
was just down the hall at this company.
He didn't go to any of the places we had suggested.
Now, that's great.
We talked about it yesterday.
There's attractive people in this company.
Yeah, you're right, Omar.
It's a real beer mug move.
Yeah, but beer mug would have lied about it.
He wouldn't have done it at all.
That's true.
He would have said he was at an Erewhon housekeeper.
But the reality is, so Johnny did talk to people, and here we go.
Already there's a little hole in the argument right out of the gate.
I made the argument that hot girls love the Disney Pixar movie Cars.
I love the memes more than I love the movie.
So already we have someone that is more of a fan of memes than the film itself,
and maybe the memes is what they grew up on more than the actual movie.
The memes come from the movie, so the movie's obviously just as good as the memes,
and you love the movie then, right?
so now he's just putting
he's just putting words
therefore you love the movie
yes or no
like interrogating her
I don't think
just say it damn it
I don't think he understands
what the goal is here
it was just
go up to people
don't even tell them
what you're doing
it's supposed to be
very objective
hi what is your
you're an attractive person
what is your favorite movie
alright name a few
of your favorite movies
and see if Cars comes up
but that's not really
how he did it
he said right away
what he was trying to find
and then when they
didn't say it
he said what they
needed to say
just as good as the memes
and you love the movie
then right
it's not like my favorite pixar movie so we're all what i heard his favorite pixar movie thank
you so much but i mean i wouldn't mind watching it again there you go that's right so he's uh
oh for one of his theory that attractive women all like the movie cars it has some funny moments
it just when i saw it i think i was like 10 when i saw it it just was it didn't hit me like you
know, Toy Story did, or...
That's true. Hot girls like Toy Story
also. And now he's changed his entire argument
to hot girls like Toy Story.
Get back out there, Johnny, to the down the hall.
Johnny, and what are we talking to level of hotness
here? Seven and above? Eight and above?
All tens? What are we doing? Oh, yes.
Eight and above. He's only talking to eights and above.
He said... And they work here all in the building?
He said... Vanessa, why did you...
So bitchy of you, Vanessa.
You just laughed. I'm laughing
at Allie. She's like, good question.
I was so fine with the accent she did.
Okay, all right.
You like her impression of Johnny.
Fair enough.
So Johnny said he's only talking to eights and above that are in this building, supposedly.
And here we go.
Here's another investigative report from Johnny to prove a point that all hot women like cars.
The argument on air that hot girls love the Disney Pixar movie Cars.
Do you love the Disney Pixar movie Cars?
Who doesn't love Cars?
That's what I'm saying.
What do you not love about Cars?
There's comedy.
There's romance.
There's action.
and there's cars.
Ka-chow.
Ka-chow.
Ka-chow.
Ka-chow.
I don't, once again.
Have you not seen the movie Cars?
You don't get it?
Have you not seen it?
No, I get, I just, I'm trying to figure out
what of anything we're trying to prove here.
All hot women love movies.
Do they love quoting the movie?
Is it a quotable movie,
or is it maybe, is it just about the memes?
I think it's just because the movie came out
when we were kids and we grew up with it,
and there's so many quotable and iconic songs
that came from it that it's like,
It grows with you as you get older.
Can I ask you a question?
You're just picking a movie that is universally loved,
so why would this be something different
between hot women and mediocre women
and ugly women and men?
I'm just saying,
why is this something that's different?
You know, I can't explain it.
It's just like in the world,
they just like it out of all the movies.
Because if you were to go talk to 10 ugly people,
like threes and below,
Should I go to threes today and ask them?
Yeah, plenty down the hall.
Mater is my doppelganger.
you said the same stupid thing uh i have a theory that all ugly people like cars do you like cars
they're gonna they're gonna probably also say they like cars johnny
so it's a stupid argument from the beginning so now i want to ask 10 ugly people yeah you
have to lead the same argument though i believe that all ugly people think cars is one of the
greatest movie.
Now let me ask you this, Scarlett.
All right.
Start with Ali.
I'll kick things off.
Yeah, why don't you practice with Ali right now, and then you can do 10 more today.
Okay, so I'm only asking ugly people, do they like the Disney Pixar movie Cars?
Oh, what's not to love about Cars?
I love Cars.
All right, there you have it.
I don't like one.
That's right.
Now we got it.
In the case that hot girls love the Disney Pixar movie Cars, what's your name?
Danny.
Do you love the movie Cars?
I like it.
It's a good one.
But it's not your favorite?
This is so lukewarm.
Kind of.
You wouldn't say you love the movie Cars?
I mean, it's definitely like towards the top of the list, but maybe I do love it.
I don't know.
Okay.
You have to also think about how they're changing their opinion based on the fact that they're talking to Johnny.
Of course.
And he starts with this whole...
So they probably don't like the movie and then they're like, you know, I could like anything.
Yeah, this is proven zero.
It was a giant waste of everyone's time.
That was also that person's first day of work here, too.
Jesus, giant waste of time.
Yeah.
And last.
All right, if you've been paying attention to today's show, you deserve a medal.
But we don't have medals here.
We do have tickets for you.
So if you can answer some questions about things that took place this morning,
and would like to take advantage of the Klein Alley Shoshinway Quiz,
you can score yourself tickets to Oceanway Festival
by calling us right now and answering some questions.
800-520-1067. Go.
Hopefully you've been paying a little attention to today's show
and you can answer some questions.
The last few days, people have done pretty well at the Klein Alley Show Quiz.
Of course, up for grabs, tickets for you to go to the Ocean Way Festival
happening in Santa Monica in September.
You will get to see Jack White and Sublime and The Killers and many others.
And yes, we are making you jump through quite a few hoops this morning
because you had to pay attention to the show and take some notes.
If you want to just win tickets the easier way,
You can just pretty much listen to K-Rock throughout the rest of the day.
You'll have a chance to win tickets every hour.
But if you want to win them from us, we make you earn them.
And this hour, we'd like to prove that you've been paying attention to the show all morning.
So it's time for another round of the Klein Alley Show Quiz.
The Klein Alley Show Quiz.
That's funny.
Titi, caca.
I don't have please, I have aunt.
Chris Greger likes Walmart.
You never call.
Ozzy.
I'm with you, Hitler.
Bitch.
Bye, Carl.
Voila.
We're going to start in Santa Monica because it's going to be convenient.
And she won't have to worry about trying to find parking.
This is Maggie.
Gets the first shot at this.
But if you're on the phone right now and your name is George or Kathy or Joseph or anyone else who I see here on hold,
hang on hold because there's a chance we end up with you if Maggie fails.
Maggie, good morning.
Good morning.
You've made it through.
You claim you've been listening to the show for at least a few hours this morning.
Yes, I have.
Taking notes at all or are you going to try to just go on memory?
Lots of notes.
Read us one note at random that you have, please.
So they're going to go camping this weekend.
Her main concern was, is there going to be a shower by Vanessa's place?
Okay, all right.
Well, you have taken notes.
That's good.
Some of these, there is a question here on my list about camping.
So maybe that actually could help you.
Here's your first question in the Klein Alley Show quiz.
You must get three in a row right or else we move to the next person.
Yesterday we had someone got two right.
They fumbled the third.
We had to move on to someone else.
We understand it could happen to you as well, but we're rooting for you, okay?
All right.
Question number one.
K-Rock is known for playing alternative music, but we did play some hip-hop this morning.
Can you name one of the hip-hop songs that we played on K-Rock this morning?
Criss-cross jump.
That is correct.
Why did we play criss-cross jump?
Good question, but we did play it, and you got that right, and if you don't know why we played jump, you should listen to more of the show, because who knows how much jump you're missing by not listening to K-Rock.
All right, good question out of the gate. You're one for one. We go to question number two right now.
Are you nervous?
Yes, very.
We talked about a new age that experts believe we are theoretically able to live towards and our bodies are able to make us live.
How long?
This is the number that we talked about earlier today during clickbait.
What is the age that theoretically we can live until?
156.
Wow.
Nice job.
Very specific number.
You wrote that note down too?
Yes, I did.
That's incredible.
With a memory like that, Allie, 156, easy.
I hope you wrote this next one down.
All right.
You've gotten two right.
It comes down to this.
LeBron James gave his announcement away earlier today on the show to Allie's unborn baby.
And Allie's unborn baby, who did join us on the show today from inside of Allie's womb, did accuse Allie of doing something.
What did Allie's unborn baby accuse Allie of doing?
Stealing office supplies, specifically highlighters.
Let's find out if you're right.
Thanks, LeBron.
I plan on being the Bronnie James of my family.
I have to go now.
My mommy's trying to steal office supplies by putting them up here with me.
Oh, a highlighter.
That is absolutely correct.
Allie is stealing office supplies in her vagina.
All of that is in context, just as dumb as it is out of context.
And you got that exactly right.
Maggie, congratulations.
Three in a row, you're going to Ocean Wave Festival.
Congratulations.
Hold on one second for those tickets.
Well played, and hopefully that was worth your entire morning today.
Oh, it was.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Enjoy the festival.
Tomorrow, more chances to win those tickets from us.
And as we said, much easier chances to win them.
Much easier.
I just feel bad for everyone who's winning.
I mean, everyone who's just winning tickets by being caller 20.
They don't have to answer a stupid question.
I have to write down things about what my unborn baby said by putting a highlighter up my V.
It's so ridiculous for so many reasons.
But anyway, it is.
I'm sorry we're making you do this.
Yeah, I feel bad about it.
It's really messed up.
Maybe tomorrow we just give away the tickets the way the rest of the station does it.
This seems so unnecessary.
What a waste of everyone's time.
Let's do takeaways from today's show.
and then we will get the hell out of here.
Sluggo will be in with more of those tickets
and a much easier way to win them coming up in moments.
I'm Kay Rocca.
What do we have for takeaways on the text line from today's show?
213, my takeaway is Allie's white lady dancing is wiggity, wiggity, wiggity whack.
Oh, it is so wiggity whack.
650, rough camping involves a lake and a log.
818, my takeaway is Jake has fancy, sophisticated mustard.
818, my takeaway is jet skis, baby.
8-2-1-3, book them, Dano.
And 3-1-0, my takeaway is congratulations, Caroline.
Hey, she's the big winner for Generation Wars.
She'll be, book them, Nessa.
Book them, Nessa.
What is your takeaway, Nessa, from today's show?
If you're single, look out for jorts.
Look out for jorts if you're single.
That's the international sign.
You're dealing with a single person.
If you're wearing jorts, Jake had a second date from Bumble.
We have the audio.
Another date, another exit interview, a brand-new exit interview,
which we'll share with you tomorrow on the show.
He claims he wore the same pair of jorts on date number two
that he was told on date number one were a one out of ten on the fashion scale,
but it didn't stop him from wearing them again,
so we'll see if they work for him or not.
That'll be on tomorrow's show.
Johnny, got a takeaway?
Have you tried tinfoil on your windows?
Yeah, try some tinfoil on the windows.
The only thing that keeps the heat away, especially if you live in the valley.
Allie, takeaway?
My takeaway is balloon animal, please.
That's the same thing.
That's not funny.
Only other balloon animals can say balloon animal.
Yeah, you got to say the B word, Allie.
Yeah, you're right.
Omar, do you have a takeaway?
Yeah, my takeaway is that Chris or Cross is dead.
I think Chris is dead.
But I did learn they're both named Chris.
Someone claims that Allie reverse mushed them somehow.
Like they were not, like somehow.
One of them was already dead.
I don't know.
It feels like you're somehow involved in this.
What is your takeaway?
Is that it, Omar?
Oh, we're all done.
We're out of takeaways.
Oh, Jake, go ahead.
Tag will clean your can.
Tag.
Thanks, Tag.
Want his number?
I'll give it to you.
$10 to get a clean can from Tag.
Have a great day.
We'll do it tomorrow.
Try to do it better.
If you need us in the meantime, there's a GOAT line for you, 844-956-GOAT.
Oh, I did want to play this message before we go.
Damn it, I was all ready to play the jingle and get out of here.
You know what?
I'll play it for you tomorrow, right out of the gate.
We have a very nice message from Blind Charlie.
I didn't think he was doing well health-wise, but he seems like he's doing okay.
Yeah?
He left us an update, but he really wanted to, I'll play it for you tomorrow.
We got to go.
Sluggold will be in here in a moment, and if you need us in the meantime, you can find us on the socials, all things Klein Alley Show.
All right, goodbye.
Klein Alley, it's just okay.
Klein Alley, it's just okay.
Klein Alley, it's just okay.
Just okay.
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
And that will just about do it.
I know what you're thinking.
How is that it?
Time just flew.
God, I would have loved a little bit more Klein Alley Show.
Well, good news.
There is more Klein Alley Show, and it's for your eyeballs.
Yep.
You can check it all out on live stream at KROQ's YouTube, and you can watch along.
You can like.
You can subscribe.
Get us to that 100K.
Or if you're listening to this, maybe we're there already.
We're not going to edit that out, so you got to hear Alley stumble over the word.
Regardless, if you want to be even more involved in the Klein Alley Show universe, that's right.
It's a whole universe, just like the Marvelverse, only way less impressive.
And way smaller.
You can get involved on the Instagram, Klein Alley Show, the socials.
Technically, I think we're still on Twitter, although I don't know if we've tweeted in a while or X'd in a while.
But more importantly right now, they're really pushing this YouTube hard.
So please do us a solid.
Go over there, KROQ's YouTube, subscribe, follow, like, all that stuff.
And I want to watch some of the content, stuff that we do on the show.
You can also share with other people.
YouTube Shorts, a great way to introduce people to the show that may not be listening.
You're already putting up with us and listening to this weird announcement after the podcast.
So at the very least, you could force a friend to do it as well.
And now listen to this entire thing in 2X.
You can listen to us on the live stream.
You can follow us on Instagram.
Oh, I want to eat my breast.
