Tim Conway, Jr. was born and raised in Los Angeles and is proud to admit that he survived 10 years in what he can only describe as a “youth detention center”, better known as the Los Angeles Unified School District. He spent his childhood around Santa Anita, Hollywood Park and Del Mar Racetracks with his father, Tim Conway (Carol Burnett Show), four younger brothers and older sister.
During his early career, he produced his own internet radio show and thanks to its popularity, he was offered an opportunity to host a radio talk show on 97.1 KLSX-FM. Over twelve successful years, Conway’s show became famous for providing Southern Californian’s with a wide variety of entertaining topics including live police chases, Hollywood craziness, and sharing current events with a twist of humor. In 2009 when KLSX switched to an all-music format, Conway joined forces with KFI-AM 640, the No. 1 news/talk radio station in the country, to continue bringing his unique and comedic perspective to topics like politics, gambling, and more. Fans love his knowledge of history and his down-to-earth take on life; and also enjoy the refreshing levity he delivers.
Throughout his career, Conway has been featured on numerous television programs (Fox 11, CBS, NBC, ABC) and has also received various industry honors including: a Golden Mic award, an Edward R. Murrow award, and a Marconi nomination for “Personality of the Year” (2016). When he’s not busy entertaining listeners, he enjoys spending time with his family, supporting local charitable organizations, and hanging out at the racetracks!

Where were you in 1988? We kick things off with a fun throwback and a look at some of the greatest sports moments of that era — nostalgia, legendary plays, and why certain years just hit different. Then we dive into Los Angeles politics and housing as reporter Michael Monks breaks down why the L.A. City Council hit pause on voting for proposed reforms to the city’s controversial mansion tax.

From Wayne Gretzky’s unmatched record of having the most records, to Mark Thompson’s mysterious 8x10 glossy celebrity photo on his nightstand, we debate ego, legacy, and — naturally — what side of the bed do you sleep on? Then we get real about relationships. Do you have a snoring problem? We talk through the unspoken rules of sleep, compromise, and the secrets to a great marriage, because nothing tests love like a bad night’s sleep. Next, a serious (and slightly unsettling) trend: younger kids gambling on sports. After Ben Affleck told Jimmy Kimmel his son asked him for gambling money, we dig into how sports betting went from bookies and guys “running numbers” to being everywhere — and what that means for parents today. We wrap it up with “Good Times Go Bad” with Mark Thompson, diving into a new Gen Z reality: parents applying for jobs with their kids — and even going on interviews for them. Is this helpful parenting or crossing the line? Either way, the generational shift is impossible to ignore. Funny, uncomfortable, and surprisingly insightful — this episode hits all the angles.
