Violent Laundromat Attacks Rock NoHo, Talk Radio Nostalgia, Then Kobe’s 81-Point Night

Eric Sklar, The Duke of Sports, joins the show as we mark the 20th anniversary of Kobe Bryant’s iconic 81-point game. We also break down the NFL Playoffs, ongoing head coaching changes, and tackle the viral 49ers injury conspiracy theory, with experts debunking claims linking injuries to Levi’s Stadium’s electric substation.  The crew gets nostalgic discussing whether you ever called into a radio station just to hear your voice played back, and how talk radio shaped childhoods for many listeners and their parents.  The show then turns serious with two troubling stories of attacks and robberies inside laundromats, including incidents in North Hollywood and NoHo.  We close with an emotional look at the North Hollywood case, where a laundromat owner’s wife was assaulted during an attempted robbery, leaving a family shaken and small business owners on edge. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
