    Tim Conway Jr. on Demand

    Tim Conway Jr. can be heard live Monday–Friday from 6pm–10pm on KFI AM 640 and everywhere on the iHeartRadio App.

    Follow the show on socials @ConwayShow.

    Tim Conway Jr. brings his signature humor to breaking news, Los Angeles current events, Orange County stories, Riverside County headlines, the Inland Empire, live police chases, freeway traffic, Hollywood craziness, pop culture, the big sports stories of the day, politics, gambling, and everything happening across Southern California. With his finger on the pulse of what’s happening in SoCal and beyond, Conway delivers funny, fast-moving talk radio every weeknight on KFI AM 640.

    Heard by listeners across the country and around the world on the iHeartRadio App, Conway’s humor, storytelling, and take on the current news of the day connect with audiences far beyond Southern California. His perspective is local, but his comedy, curiosity, and down-to-earth view of life translate across cultures, communities, and languages.

    Tim Conway Jr. was born and raised in Los Angeles and is the son of iconic comedy legend Tim Conway of The Carol Burnett Show. He spent his childhood around Santa Anita, Hollywood Park, and Del Mar Racetracks with his father, four younger brothers, and older sister — experiences that helped shape his humor, storytelling, and down-to-earth perspective on life.

    During his early career, Conway produced his own internet radio show and, thanks to its popularity, was offered the opportunity to host a talk show on 97.1 KLSX-FM. Over twelve successful years, his show became famous across Southern California for entertaining topics, live police chases, Hollywood craziness, pop culture, sports, and current events with a twist of humor. In 2009, when KLSX switched to an all-music format, Conway joined KFI AM 640, continuing to bring listeners his unique comedic perspective on breaking news, politics, gambling, history, sports, entertainment, and life in SoCal.

    Throughout his career, Conway has been featured on Fox 11, CBS, NBC, and ABC, and has received numerous industry honors including a Golden Mic Award, an Edward R. Murrow Award, and a Marconi Award nomination for Personality of the Year. When he’s not entertaining listeners, Conway enjoys spending time with his family, supporting local charities, and hanging out at the racetracks.

    Homeless Camping Ban Lifted in Echo Park Aug 22, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 1 (8.21) The City Council voted 10-3 to lift camping bans at a dozen sites in Echo Park, Silver Lake and Hollywood. Conway went to City Hall and then to the encampments to find out what actually changed.

    6:05 PM — Extreme heat warning through Saturday, with the Valley running near 109. We say goodbye to one of our best I.T. guys, Dave Shuttera. Then the camping ban: Councilman Hugo Soto-Martínez got 12 anti-camping zones in his district rescinded — the first time the city has ever pulled a 41.18 designation back. Conway went looking for the real reason, and it isn't the one on the council floor.

    6:20 PM — Somebody backed a car up to Paramount City Hall at 2:15 in the morning and walked off with the kneeling soldier and the bronze rifle from the Armed Forces Memorial. LASD Major Crimes puts the pair at about $100,000. The same memorial got sawed up in May of last year. Los Angeles is now the wire-and-metal theft capital of the country, and this is what that looks like when it comes to a war memorial.

    6:35 PM — We love our listeners, but some of them listen too closely. A green object landed on the floor at Crypto.com Arena during the third quarter of Atlanta's 124-88 win over the Sparks. Angel Reese spotted the guy from the bench, pointed him out, and security had him before he got to the exit. He was wearing a Lakers jersey.

    6:50 PM — NOAA's Climate Prediction Center now puts a very strong El Niño above 90% for this fall and winter and gives October through December a 69% chance of an event bigger than anything on the books since 1950. Daniel Swain and the European model have California at 70-100% odds of a top 20% wettest winter. Get the sandbags now, not in December.

    Why L.A. Restaurants Keep Closing in 2026 Aug 22, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 2 (8.21) Neil Saavedra, the Fork Reporter, is in. Handel's birthday costume party is on the calendar, and Saavedra is coming as a Zelmin's capsule — the death of bad breath, walking around a party.

    7:20 PM — Thursday's thrower wore a white No. 77 Lakers jersey and made it up the steps of Section 111 before security caught him, and he made it worse by shoving a guard on the way. He was arrested, and Front Office Sports reports an indefinite ban from all WNBA, NBA and league-affiliated events. Angel Reese called out the jersey number from the bench, which is how they found him.

    7:35 PM — Saturdays have gotten too busy and everybody needs a day off. Some honest talk about panic attacks and what helps. Then a Kobe work-ethic story, and a word about Margo Dydek — 7-foot-2, first overall pick in 1998, all-time WNBA blocks leader, and a Los Angeles Spark before she was done. She was 37 when she died in 2011.

    7:50 PM — Saavedra on why the closings keep coming. Cole's, open since 1908. Connie & Ted's. Nearly 19,000 restaurant jobs gone in L.A. in six years. The more useful question is the other one: what are the ones still standing doing right?

    Skip the Tip! Americans have hit their Tipping Point Aug 22, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 3 (8.21) L.A. County's own report puts the Paramount-Warner Bros. deal at 4,500 film and TV jobs lost over three years — on top of the 52,000 the region has already shed since 2022. And that's if the studios stay.

    8:05 PM — Attention, Angelenos. A report to the Board of Supervisors this week from the county's Department of Economic Opportunity and CVL Economics says the Paramount Skydance–Warner Bros. Discovery merger would cost roughly 4,500 direct film and TV jobs in the county, with more than 10,000 total job-years and billions in economic activity at risk. That's the version where the merged company stays here. David Ellison is threatening to move operations to Texas or Tennessee if Rob Bonta won't come to the table by October 1. Bonta and eleven other attorneys general are suing to block the deal, and trial isn't until March. Then a burglary suspect in a Honda Accord led LAPD for over an hour through the Valley — through a CSUN parking structure, through a gas station, T-boned by an innocent driver in Granada Hills — before pulling a U-turn on the 405 and going head-on into a CHP SUV in North Hills. He ran. He didn't get far.

    8:20 PM — Leveling Out: come meet Stu Mundel at Dave & Buster's in Orange. Plus the Los Feliz water main that let go at 11 o'clock last night at Commonwealth and Avocado — a six-inch cast iron line that buckled the sidewalk and flooded a restaurant patio. Crews had it back in service by 8 a.m. LADWP says the city averages two to four of these a day, which is either reassuring or the opposite.

    8:35 PM — End of week WHIP. Then the tipping point, and we mean it literally: one survey has the average American leaving about $38 a month in tips they didn't want to leave in the first place, and Toast's data across 171,000 restaurants puts the overall average tip at 18.8%, dropping to 13.7% on takeout. Nearly three-quarters of Americans say they're being asked to tip in more places than five years ago. Skip the tip? We take your calls. Plus another chase, this one out of Woodland Hills.

    8:50 PM — SeaWorld San Diego turned its Bayside Amphitheater into a Y2K block party. Ying Yang Twins opened the run, Ginuwine, Bow Wow, E-40, Ashanti and Jordin Sparks followed, and Too $hort and Warren G closed it out — all included with park admission, all going viral on TikTok, all with the bay behind the stage. Grandmothers, parents and kids at the same show. How a marine park accidentally built the best throwback series in Southern California.

    Arrested, Then Banned from Every Arena Aug 22, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 4 (8.21) He shoved a security guard on the way out of Crypto.com Arena and got about twelve steps. Arrested, and now reportedly banned from every WNBA and NBA building in the country. Plus, Saavedra on the restaurant closings.

    9:05 PM — Neil Saavedra, the Fork Reporter, is in. Handel's birthday costume party is on the calendar, and Saavedra is coming as a Zelmin's capsule — the death of bad breath, walking around a party.

    9:20 PM — Thursday's thrower wore a white No. 77 Lakers jersey and made it up the steps of Section 111 before security caught him, and he made it worse by shoving a guard on the way. He was arrested, and Front Office Sports reports an indefinite ban from all WNBA, NBA and league-affiliated events.

    California Jam 1974: Callers Who Were There Aug 21, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 1 (8.20) Callers who were at Ontario Motor Speedway on April 6, 1974 tell it themselves — the bands, the heat, and the ones who admit they were way too young to be there.The whole hour belongs to California Jam. Callers walk us through what it was actually like to be on that speedway floor: one day, eight acts, a site about 35 miles east of Los Angeles, and a crowd that set the record for the highest paid attendance of any rock concert to that point. Then the lineup, act by act — Deep Purple and Emerson, Lake & Palmer co-headlined, with Black Sabbath, the Eagles, Earth, Wind & Fire, Seals & Crofts, Black Oak Arkansas and Rare Earth — plus the parts people forget, like the fact that ABC put it on television in prime time while KLOS ran the FM simulcast. The confessions come next: listeners who owned up to going knowing full well they were too young to be there, and how they pulled it off. The hour closes with the crew off the Cal Jam topic entirely, going around the room on who they'd interview if they could pick anyone, living or dead

    Jim J. Bullock on Too Close for Comfort Aug 21, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 2 (8.20) Jim J. Bullock is back in the studio with Tim, forty-plus years after Too Close for Comfort — plus the Smoke House cheese bread Tim can't stop thinking about. Tim and Jim go all the way back to when they worked together, and they spend the first half of the hour there: the Monroe Ficus years, the run on the John Davidson version of Hollywood Squares where Bullock sometimes filled in as host, and the stories that come with four decades of knowing somebody. The conversation keeps rolling into whether The Love Boat could ever sail again, and into the crew's ongoing and doomed project to butch Jim up. From there it's the latest in toaster technology and the unanswerable question of where morning news anchors find that much energy at 5 a.m. And Tim closes it out on the Smoke House in Burbank and the garlic cheese bread he can't shake — the steakhouse has sat across from Warner Bros. since 1946, and the recipe came from the original owners and got passed quietly down through generations of chefs, with hundreds of vacuum-sealed loaves now shipping around the country every week.

    Birth Order Personality Traits, Tested Aug 21, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 3 (8.20) The crew runs birth order against their own personalities; Bellio stops the show over a pair of shoes, and Tim admits what he pulled at the Getty on a date. It starts with the theory that where you land in the family — oldest, middle, baby, only — stamps you for life, and the crew testing it on themselves one by one. Then everything grinds to a halt because Bellio's shoes are too cute to let pass without comment. Tim takes it from there with the story of a trip to the Getty with a girlfriend and the move he decided to make while he was up there. And the hour closes on retro television; the shows the crew grew up in front of, which turns into a roll call of people who got fired in radio and what finally did it.Worth knowing before you do the birth-order bit: the largest study on it, 377,000 high school students, found the differences between firstborns and everyone else are so small they have no practical relevance to people's lives. A separate analysis across British, American and German samples found null effects on personality across the board, with the only exception a slight firstborn edge on intelligence. Doing the bit and then pulling the rug plays better than playing it straight.

    Doomsday Glacier: What Thwaites Collapse Means Aug 21, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 4 (8.20) The ice shelf braking Antarctica's Doomsday Glacier is about to go, a rare violin gets stolen, and Mark relives the voiceover auditions that didn't go his way. The hour opens on the theft of a very expensive, very old violin, which turns into a detour through the instrument's history and everyone who's held it. Then Tim and Mark on the Doomsday Glacier — Thwaites is nicknamed that because a total collapse would push global sea levels up 26 inches and flood coastal communities. The eastern ice shelf that acts as a natural brake on the glacier is expected to start breaking apart, though scientists put the full collapse on a timescale of centuries, not years. Mark takes it from there with stories from the voiceover audition circuit and what actually happens in those rooms. And the crew closes out going around on their favorite cereals, which gets more heated than it has any right to

    One Last Vape Hit Before the Handcuffs Aug 20, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 1 (8.17) A dirt bike rider runs from police across South LA and into Compton, tears a gas pump off the island mid-pursuit, gets fuel staged for him in a park by other riders — then hides in a trash can and takes one more hit off his vape before the cuffs go on.+

    We follow it live from the top: the rider weaving through traffic with units behind him, then the stop at the gas station where he pulls away with the pump still attached. The chase picks right back up once he's fueled. Then the part that turns it from a pursuit into something else — he meets up with other riders, and there's a jug of gas waiting in the park so he can top off and keep going. It runs through Compton from there, until he ditches the bike, climbs into a trash can, gets one last puff in, and gives himself up.

    LA Just Erased 12 No-Camping Zones Aug 20, 2026
    Show notes

    Hour 2 (8.19) The City Council pulls a dozen anti-camping zones off the map in Hollywood, Silver Lake and Echo Park; Conway runs through the racing firsts that all started at one Tijuana track, and a big upset out of Florida. The council voted 10-3 to remove 12 designated enforcement zones under the city's 41.18 anti-camping law — supporters say it lets the city focus on outreach and housing; opponents warn about public safety and quality of life. All 12 sit in Council District 13, represented by Hugo Soto-Martínez, who said he'd never heard of a 41.18 zone being removed before. Crozier weighs in with his own housing history — he slept on a branch in a tree when he first got to L.A. Then Conway on going to Agua Caliente with his dad, and everything the track gave racing: the Pick 6, which started there as the "5-10," plus the starting gate and safety helmets, and Anna Lee Aldred, who in 1939 became the first American woman licensed as a jockey — she got that license at Caliente. Plus, the Coast Guard pulls a jet skier out of the ocean, and why his life jacket is the reason he's alive. The hour closes on the Florida Democratic Senate primary, where progressive state Rep. Angie Nixon upset former National Security Council aide Alex Vindman, setting up a November race against Republican Sen. Ashley Moody.
