You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty. Now it's time for not Aica Daily Cruise. Well, thank you so very much, and happy Friday, mo Kelly. All right, Well, you know every single Friday I talk about discovering SoCal and the weather is getting a little bit better, so I didn't go too far, but I did go kind of like almost in our backyard. So my discover SoCal location was the Walt Disney's Carol Wood Barn Museum, addresses fifty two two Zoo Drive in La
Griffith Park area. I should say it's only opened get this the third Sunday of the month. It's opened from eleven am to three pm. Free admission in parking and the Walt Disney Carlwood Barn Museum is probably the cutest and the quaintest little spot to take your kids and learn about Walt Disney's obsession with trains and to see what was once his barn. This was actually once his barn.
The Walt Disney Barn member told me that walk love trains and that as a teen, Walt Disney was once a news butcher on the on three train lines. Now a news. Butcher was a person who worked on passenger railroad sellings like newspapers, candies, cigars to the passengers, and even sometimes handling passengers luggages as well. So when you first walk in, you'll see this really bright kind of florescent yellow redline one combined Santa Fe and Disney train that
was used on the opening day in nineteen fifty five. You can't miss it. It is so bright. I tell you that if you go, you might as well just walk in with some like sunglasses, because that's how bright it is. The train was used for ten years until more people started visiting Disneyland, and then it officially retired a year after I was born. Yes, nineteen seventy four. Yes, you could walk around the train, but
not inside, and it looks absolutely immaculate. Now behind the train you could take a small tour where you could see items that have been preserved from Walt Disney, such as the Disneyland Parkside plan of nineteen fifty three. Original passenger tickets from the train, which were I don't know, they were like more like a four by six. Now you get this, you don't even get a pass like a ticket. Disneyland's first ever sponsored pamphlet of the park and
where the train would stop you. There is a drawing of the monorail crossing from nineteen fifty eight which shows that Walt Disney was really ahead of his time. A very first Disneyland board game, which I never even knew existed. Now, from that charming little memorabilia room, you could cross over to the Walt Disney Barn, and I tell you it's very, very point, and it's just a delight, and it has so much history in there. Now, the Walt Workshop, which was his man cave, was kind of where
he escaped. Now, back then, man caves were like barns. Nowadays you have she sheds and you have he sheds, and you have these shes that you can make in tatiki rooms and all this other stuff. But this is where his creative juices and brilliance came to life. And all the workbenches and they were hand built by Walt Disney himself. They're in immaculate condition as well. You'll see his King George and the fifth Livestream engine, which was
purchased in nineteen fifty one in a store in London. You'll see some of the books. You'll see books on trains and engines and diagrams tools he used, and there are original toolboxes and a few pictures of him working in his barn and on the trains. There are some personal items. There's the actual phone that was used to communicate between the barn and the main house, and there is also his very own shaving kit while often and started work in the
bar and early in the morning and he would shave. And you see the sink there too, where you you know, you kind of feel his presence when you're there. The last thing to see is the Ali Johnson's Railroad Depot depot, which is a small working train at the end of kind of like at the end of the museum. And there's also really cute souvenir collectible place. It's called Souvenirs Collectibles and what have you. I love the name of that little snore. So for a little museum, I have to say,
there is a lot to see. So don't blink. Do not blink, and just take your time really walking through either the barn or the where the train is. And if you are a Disney fan of Walt Disney, I have to say that you really get a sense of who he was, how his mind work, how creative he was. There were a lot of sketches that you kind of go, I think this is a ride at Disneyland, but I don't know, And some of it were kind of hit a missus
failures, but they were just ideas. There were just things he really wanted to to life. So for more information on when they are open, you could also follow them on Instagram at Waltz Barn or visit www Carolwood dot org. The Carrollwood Foundation preserves Walt Disney's railroad legacy. And just an fyi, Walt Disney Barn is celebrating twenty five years at Griffith Park. Mark your calendar for July twentieth and twenty first. I'll give this to Tuala two because I
know he kind of mentions things that are coming up. So mark your calendar for July twentieth and twenty first. They are finalizing the details and will be announcing more soon. The events will vary in cost to provide any opportunity for all the guests to celebrate, so make sure you check back and also follow them on Instagram or Facebook. And it's just like I said, it's a really, really cute place. It's only opened once again. I will repeat
myself because I had to wait third Sunday of the month. It is free. They do take donations, he said free. Yeah, it's free ninety nine for we love free. See parking is also free ninety nine freesky. But it's only opened eleven am to three pm and it's five to zero two zoo drive in La Griffith Park area. And on Instagram you could follow them at Walt's Barn. You gave us a lot of information, a lot of
history for four hours that it could be open one day a month. How much time did you spend there to get all of that, to digest all of that? I spent one hour, so a good thirty minutes inside that little where the yellow train was. Because you have to and I'm just giving you just like the basics, because I want you to go. I want you to take that Sunday, third Sunday of the month and take your kids and take your family. And if you're a Disney lover and if you're just
a fan of Walt's there's so much to see. I mean things that you were like, wow, I mean you see diagrams, you see some of his personal stuff. You see things that his his mind mode was just brilliant, just brilliant. He was ahead of his time. When you see the diagram on the wall of the mono rail, you were like, yo, you were thinking, like way ahead decades really, and this is just so
much to see. So about I spent about thirty minutes in the where the yellow train is, and then I was in line for about a good probably ten minutes inside the barn because everyone wants to see that, and they only let so many people inside the barn because it's you know, it's not a really big barn, but there's so many little things to see. So that takes about a good thirty minutes and people are just intrigued. And his actual tools because he had this fascination for trains, you know what I mean.
And he had books on trains, on engines and stuff I don't even know how to pronounce, and just intricate stuff. And you know, you see Walt Disney as this person who created Disneyland and disney World, but you also go you kind of look at him and you go, I feel like, still there's that little boy in him, you know what I mean. I think in every man. There's a little boy and that really wants to express themselves and show who they are and see their creator and show them their show
you their creativity. Well that was fantastic. You've given me something to do. I'm going to put that on my calendar because I am curious to know and dying to see it. Yes, yes, so definitely. Like I said, only the third Sunday of the month open from eleven am to three pm. Free admission, free parking. They do like to take donations if possible, and once again you could follow them on Instagram at Walt Disney's Barn. That's Nataka Dela Cruz. We'll have more on this Friday Night with Nataka
in just a moment. It's Later with mo Kelly if I am six forty. We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty. Now back to you, Naica Dela Cruz. Well, thank you so very much. Love that beat right there. All right, Well it is Friday and I have a beautiful young lady as a hidden gem. Her name is Megan Riley. Megan Riley was adopted at five years old by a male family friend due to her mother's substance
a youth struggles. By ten years old, the family friend had passed away, and Megan learned that her adopted father was not her biological father. Hoping to keep some stability in her life, the man's oldest daughter assumed care for her for a brief period of time. Unfortunately, shortly after the transition, her caretaker contacted the Department of Family Services stated that she was no longer able to care for Megan. Megan ended up in foster Youth Home feeling alone,
scared, and with an overwhelming sense of grief and abandonment. Her first few weeks there were very difficult. She had trouble communicating her needs and making friends. Megan also struggled with schedules and any type of structure. Over time, Megan devel a strong love for animals, like we all love animals, and in high school and in her high school years she interned at a local pet shelter, and you know, she needed some She also needed some what do
you call it, the community credit? I guess so that it was helpful for her. She felt that she liked animals more than people. I think we all can agree on that, and she became a vet nurse at VCA Hospital. Megan said she ended up in the care of additional family members, but she just couldn't shake off the feeling of being in a foster youth home and feeling so scared. She said it was something that was very hard to
forget and didn't want any young child to feel that way. She was very blessed enough to receive love and be in a loving environment with a family she deserved. She wanted to show kindness and warmth to other young children, so she connected with LA y N, which stands for the Los Angeles Youth Network, also known as YES Youth Emerging Stronger dot org. The Los Angeles Youth Network have different programs for homeless, minor youths ages twelve to seventeen and also
transitional age youth eighteen to twenty four. They have programs of intervention, prevention, and permanency. Permanency is more than a safe, stable home. It's connection, it's hope, it's healing. So their residential programs offer intervention, ensuring youth are off the streets, free from abuse and working towards being protected. Also also working I'm sorry protect them from against future victimization, incarceration,
and homelessness. Over two hundred and fifty youth per per year benefit from their education assistance, job development, and mental health services. Two hundred plus youth receive aftercare assistance and supportive services. Thirty five percent of youth they serve are a part of the LGTBQ community and they save and they have eighty four percent success rate of having the youth safely reunited with their family, a foster family
or stable independent living home environment. They also have a help hotline and they do not turn a child away. You could also get involved with this organization by visiting their website and tabbing over to where it says give and engage. There are many many ways to help and you know, Megan Riley, first of all, I want to say thank you for your story. You are
a warrior. Thank you for being our hidden gem this week. And it is not too many times that you hear someone who is in the foster system that has a positive story that ends up with the family with love and caring. Because it could go either way. Go way, ye either way,
it could go positive or it could go negative. And from more information you could go to Youth Emerging Stronger dot org if you like to get involved or if you like to donate, and you know her story, She said this kind of woke her up in a sense as of, you know, what she wanted to do in life. It kind of molded her into becoming a vet nurse and also trying to help other children not to feel the way that
she felt. And you know, with that being said, you know, as a kid, I kind of struggled a little bit, and I, you know, I wanted to be part of a foster home because I was an abused child and I used to that I was an abused child, and I used to run away from my home and sleep at the park. And I did that from the ages of five to six. I've known you, I don't know how many years, and I didn't know bad about you.
Well, you know, I don't really tell too many people my story, but it has been a blessing that you know, sometimes when I learn about people, especially these hidden gems, I feel like I connect with a lot of them in certain way minus homelessness. But that's what I guess draws me
to them, to get to know them a little bit. And so, you know, as a child when I would sleep in these parks from the ages of five to six, I used to wish and pray that somebody would pick me up, and I wanted to be a part of another family. And I'm you know, my life ended up turning not so bad. You know. I got reunited with my mother. But I hear her story and I hear I hear how she kind of suffered a little bit as far as believing you think this is your that you think this is your father, but
it's not your father. Same here. I thought my stepmother was my mother, but she wasn't my biological mother, you know what I mean. And how we go back to that is that my father had kidnapped me from my mother in nineteen seventy four, and so long story short, it was, it's not how now, Daisy, I have Amber alerts and you know, you swipe a credit card and you can find someone where they're at, and yes, it's it, you know. So it took my mom a really
long time to find me. And I'm kind of like Megan. She got reunited with her family, and she started to learn what love is and learning to love herself and learning to know what the value of family is How did you find Megan? I found Megan through a friend and she said that she works with the youth and I said, I was I'm kind of looking for someone who was working for youth and she was like, oh, I have
a person. And I was like okay. And she didn't want to, you know, zoom call because she's very shy and she's like, I don't really like to open up to people. And I said, okay, Well, I'm going to try to make you feel as comfortable as possible, you know, And I said, if it takes me four days to finish the
story, I'll do it. I just want to hear your story and I want to hear how you paired up with this organization because my friend was telling me more about the organization than Megan, and so I said, well, let me talk to her. And you know, we had a good conversation and you know, some tears and some laughter, and you know, I see comedy and even in the worst, you know what I mean, I
see road kill. I think it's funny. But you know what I mean, I feel like sometimes you connect with someone, whether it's Kismet or whatnot, but it's like God sends you an angel from above to go, hey, maybe you need to talk to this person and maybe you guys can compare notes. Yeah, it sounds like you not only learned something from each other, but you also remembered something that you maybe had forgotten long ago about the magic and importance of life. Correct. Correct, Well, that was something
that was pretty powerful. I enjoyed what you Donica, make sure you come back next week as well. All Right, it's led with Mo Kelly KFI AM six forty Live Everywhere on the Art Radio app. You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty Later about Gully Live Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. Now Mark Runner with the Runner Report. Tonight we
talk about The Fall Guy. Maybe your reaction was the same as mine when you saw there was gonna be a Fall Guy movie with Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, something along the lines of, oh, thank you. Another mediocre old TV series gets the big screen treatment. When do we get the big screen Simon and Simon or Hardcastle and McCormick blockbusters. Yes, they're gonna do
those for real, aren't they. I don't forget Heart to Heart I'm not looking you look, So maybe you also thought Fall Guy movie Ryan Gosling will get richer along with everybody else involved. It'll be empty calories that could never be mistaken in any way for anything memorable substantial, let alone art. Kind of like a bag of funians you scarf down on the way home from work in the car and completely forget about until your girlfriend tells you you dropped a
couple on the floor. Look, I'm sorry. Do you think i'd intentionally waste funians? Hell? No, get off my back, and that you also got crumbs on the seat. All right, I'm sorry, my bad. I was trying to keep my eyes on the road, and you didn't want me to die to avoid funion crumbs on your lousy car seat, did you? Is that what you wanted on your conscience? A funion related death? What are we even doing here actually eat funions? Anyway? The Fall
Guy movie. You don't have to sell me on nostalgia. I'm into all of that. Old shows are my comfort viewing. I just bought the score to twelve o'clock High from a joint called La La Land Records, and I'm still digging every minute of the FBI Quinn Martin Warner Production, but for every mission impossible, and those had to get four or five deep to start getting
really good. By the way, there's a wild Wild West or a Starsky and Hutch movie offensively bad, lazy insults to the original stuff Code Brown's no debate. Now. I don't really care if anyone insults The Fall Guy because I was never a big fan of it. In fact, I don't remember watching it. But weirdly, I've become a fan of Heather Thomas in recent months and I follow her on Twitter. She's exceptionally cool and she's got some
nerve too. Also, Lee Major's absolutely loved The six Million Dollar Man when I was a kid, and I know Mode did too. Absolutely. I was tickled to see him pop up in Ash Versus Evil Dead as Ash's father fairly recently. Now, if you remember, Majors sang the theme song of The Fall Guy. Now let's just settle into this. Okay, that's about all that I can take. My God, my god, that's bad. And I may not be a Fall Guy fan, but I am a bad
pop culture trash fan. And let me tell you that's not all the singing Lee Majors did Anyway, we were talking about how the Fall Guy movies like funians, right, but hang on here the director is David Leech. He's the guy who did Atomic Blonde, Deadpool two, Bullet Train. That is some respectable action comedy material right there. Well, here's the deal. Fall Guy's kind of fun, pretty dumb. It's too long, and it wears out. It's welcome way before the credits roll and they show you the behind
the scenes footage. The script so formulaic that if you experience even a singer moment of surprise, you may want to look into one of those person man woman camera TV cognitive tests. But if you like Gosling and he always gives off a vibe of being game and amiable and in on the joke, then you're not going to be furious on the car ride home. Okay, get some mo Vegan nuggets and it's a couple it's a couple hours of not worrying
about Gaza. I can sum up the vibe as being pretty similar to that Dragnet comedy with Tom Hanks and Dan Ackroyd way back in nineteen eighty seven, but with more stunts and maybe the Ben Stiller Starsky and hutch, complete with the obligatory but really unsatisfying cameos and more stunts. This formulaic plot. It's mainly a delivery device for yes, stunts and set pieces, but it's so belabored that you can't help being constantly aware of it instead of just experiencing the
ride and wishing they trimmed at least twenty minutes from it. Gosling's stunt guy character is in a thing with blunts Emily blunts. He gets injured in a stunt and disappears for eighteen months, along with their relationship. He's later hired on her first movies where she's a director, and there's a lot of talking about that, what happened, if they'll ever get back together again. Not
a single surprise anywhere ever. Meanwhile, the jerk lead actor goes missing and mister fall guy goes to find him to keep the plug from getting pulled on the movie and save the day via stunts. There's your setup. Oh, and bad guys literally want to set up Gosling, making him say it with me. There a fall guy, thank you very much. Now. The bad guys are played so broadly that I kept finding myself thinking of better stunt guy movies like like Hooper with Burt Reynolds. Oh, that was a good
one, it really was. Or Richard Rushes the stunt Man, remember that one I do Peter O'Toole Steve Rail's back was the Stuntman. In fact, I'll tell you this, during the two hours and seven minutes, I had completely composed in my head a listical that even I have too much self respect to pitch of the best movies about stuntman to see before you watch The fall Guy and before you ask yes, stunt Rock from nineteen seven and eight is on it. And that's your runner report. I feel like I pulled something,
mo. I have a question, two questions. Actually, I've always been ambivalent ambivalent about Ryan Goswig. I wasn't sure whether he was a leading man. He works well in kind of an ensemble cast. I don't know if he can hold the screen by himself. Well, he was terrific in Blade Runner twenty forty nine, and he was really good in a movie that, for some reason people have forgotten called The Nice Guys with Russell Crowe. Yeah, anybody who hasn't seen that, it's a great time. It's a
much better time. Than the fall Guy. But like I said, it's inoffensive. It's no good by any means, but you know you're not going to be furious on the ride home, and like taking the dog to a gravel pit whether I guess that's a whole nother subject. Were there any Easter eggs? HARKing back to the TV show, Well, you just find out there's the obligatory cameos, but don't expect much at all out of that. I will say at the Thomas, it's still looking pretty good. All right,
all right, that's always a reason to go see it. If we have extra time we do. I've got an honorable mention, so I can leave you with something actually good. It's a movie called Late Night with the Devil. Now, this is not a blockbuster, but it's worth your time. It had a spotty theatrical release. It might still be in some but it's streaming now on Shutter and I think you can just run it to stream.
And it is one hundred percent my wheelhouse. It's about a seventies late night TV show host and he has a possessed girl on a show, along with a sort of amazing Randy Debunker type and some other oddball guests and all hell breaks loose literally on the show. This is lots of fun. It is just note perfect and its presentation, even if I thought the end result was more of a solid B plus as opposed to an Exorcist A plus. The star is David dast Melchin, who has been in one of those suicide
movies, The Last Voyage of the Demeter. You're gonna recognize him. He's been in tons of stuff recently. I felt kind of rotten for not seeing Late Night with the Devil in a theater, but I subscribed to Shutter just to support worth while stuff like this. Not really a ton of stunts, though Late Night with the Devil is worth the watch. There's something positive to take out of this whole ordeal, all right, And there is your runner
report. And also got to remind you one last time. The Beach Live Festival returns to the sands of Adondo Beach May third, as in today through May fifth, with performances by Staying, Incubus, Devo, Dirty Heads, zz Top and more, plus the FOURK reporter Neil Sievedra will be broadcasting live tomorrow on Saturday, and it's not too late, hurry up and get your tickets now at Beachlife Festival dot com and also give us a call for name
that movie called Classic eight hundred five to zero one five three four. It's Later with Moe Kelly k if I AM six forty Live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app you're listening to and Later with Moe Kelly on demand from KFI AM six forty. Last segment. Mark Ronner in his RUNA report was reviewing the movie The Fall Guy, and in that you got the whole nostalgic feels of the original TV show. And I would say it's Cousin the six Million Dollar Man
and all the great memories. If you're old enough to remember those TV shows, There's something very powerful about nostalgia and these characters that we fall in love with over the years. Never is that more evident than when I watch a show like Cobra Kai. It has all of the best feel good moments of the original movies. You have the original actors and actresses. Every single one, with the exception of maybe one or two, have made their presence known
in the Cobra Kai series from the Karate Kid universe. Every single one. We get to find out what has happened to all of our favorite characters, from Daniel and Johnny and Ali with an eye, all of them, the bad boy Mike Barnes since a Kreese Terry Silver chosen every single one. They've made an appearance, maybe multiple appearances, and that's why the show is so
well done. Not only do the homage to the original trilogy and those characters, they've done a very deliberate, well researched presentation of these new characters, the new generation, which is going to take the series into the future. They have the new Karate Kid movie coming out in about a year or so. The one thing that's really really good about Cobra Kai is that it is
a series that has grown with us. Any of us who watched and fell in love with the Karate Kid in our youth, this is a series that grew up with us so it matured. It's not a retread of the old story. It's not the same the old character still going through the same stuff. They are adults now dealing with their history and how it have turned out now. And there are things that Cobra Kai has done which have flipped the original Karate Kids' story on its head and that's what makes it fresher. It
actually shows you how everything you may have thought was happening wasn't everything. It's just actual life. There are no actual good guys and bad guys. These are people who were all dealing with something. I love that about the series. The season six, the final season, is just upon us. They
released a new trailer for season six not too long ago. But what's interesting is this final season is going to be broken up into three parts, three many seasons, if you will, of six episodes each, which are going to take place over the course of maybe a year and a half our real world time. In other words, we'll get the first six episodes and maybe two months, and then we'll have to wait three months for the next six episodes and so forth, and will lead us up to the doorstep of the
new Karate Kid movie. Love the smell of karate in the afternoon, No mercy, get your asses ready, We're not giving up without a fight. Cobra Kai is back. What I love about Cobra Kai as well is they allow these kids who have grown up to become adults, act like real adults, They talk like adults. They are like many of us where we're stuck in our our high school years. As far as mentality, we're stuck in
the nineties in terms of the decade, and the humor is adult. Ye any times, it's not that same innocent universe that we once knew way back when. This is quite possibly one of the most brilliant franchises on Netflix. There's no wonder why it is so popular and has spawned a new generation of fandom because it does touch on real life issue things that you and I as adults, mo that we can relate and we say like, yeah, man,
I remember what it was like in high school. It's almost like seeing what life would be like if you were able to go back and try to fix some of those things. I love how it pulls us in like that. Well, they're basically our contemporaries when they were in high school. We were in high school. When they grew up and started their adult lives,
so did we. They're gone through some of the same life challenges that we've gone through, and also dealing with those demons of the past, the people that you run into later on in life who may have peaked in high school. Yeah, and they're still thinking as if it is still high school. And they think that because they bullied you in high school that they can bully you in your late forties and fifties. And it's like, na, son, I'm not that same person, and neither are you. Yeah, yeah,
that part is fantastic. And I know I've had some people reach out to me, send me dms what we've talked about in the past, and they're like, the martial arts is corny, it's not real. It's not about that, and it's like, let's not re re envision the original Karate Kid as if it was just some you know, Jackie Chan or Jet Lee martial arts, you know, spectacular. It wasn't. They were trying to give you a look at what realistic karate tournaments are, like the tournament,
the tournament, the tournament, not the actual participants. Because let's remember Daniel LaRusso started in New School, so we can assume it's September and the All Valley Karate Championship was December nineteenth, and he was a block belt and won the tournament as well. Look, he was in black belted yagi dough, so that's that's different, but he won even heat. The bad boy Mike Barnes, I think but anyhow, cry excuse me. Cobra Kai is coming
with the sixth season sometime in July. If I'm not mistaken, I will not miss it. Can't wait for it. And it also real quickly before we go to break. It reminds people, or should remind people, the power of Netflix. The first two two seasons of Cobra Kai were on YouTube Red. Netflix picked it up and all of a sudden it spawned a whole universe, a movie, and so forth. It just revitalized everything. It
could have just died on the vine. And if you think about if you know this show suits it originally aired on the USA Network, diehard fans like me, we loved it. It went away, and then it saw showed up on Netflix. It blew up. It became a phenomenon all over again. Now they're going to have another show since La, just because of the success on Netflix. So I think you're going to see more TV shows come back to life because of Netflix. K if I am six forty. We're
