| 0:00.0 | KFI AM 640. You're listening to the John and Ken show On Demand on the Iheart Radio app. |
| 0:08.4 | All right. It was a week ago when one horrible tragedy struck in Thousand Oaks outside of Westlake High School, |
| 0:17.6 | a man ran down several teens who were gathered outside, caused severe damage, |
| 0:24.0 | and did kill a 15-year-old teen, Wesley Welling, who was hanging out there in front of the school |
| 0:32.2 | with some of his friends. Others who were injured were injured, and still remain in hospital treatment care. |
| 0:41.8 | We have a chance now to talk to Wesley's father, Craig Welling, about his son and find out more about the young man. |
| 0:52.5 | Craig, welcome to the John and Ken Show. Thank you, John and Ken. It's an honor |
| 0:57.4 | and a privilege to be on your show. Thank you. I've been listening from day one. |

| 1:56.0 | to the memorial events, and I've listened to the silences, and I've listened to the stories, and I've listened to the stories and thanks to you |
| 2:03.5 | blessed wonderful people when we're at our lowest of despair you are there with your love and |
| 2:11.9 | your encouragement loving experiences and your prayers they lift my family up where we find a smile among these tears and |

| 2:36.5 | So did so. |
