  Speaker 1: I'm just looking at the mugshot of Mary lou Retton. Man,
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: you talk about tragic. Wow. Life takes its turns, and
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: apparently took some bad turns for her. She was arrested,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: of course, a couple of weeks ago, down in West
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Virginia for DUI and this this. Frankly, if you would
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: have taken this picture, put it in front of me
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: and put a million dollars on the table and say
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: guess who this is, I never would have guessed. Mary
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: lou Retton just wouldn't have happened. Allison in her news
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: covered the ritz recall. I want to tell you about that. Plus,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: if you did this, you already know it. But a
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: gas station here in the state of Ohio was pumping
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: diesel from the gas pump and a lot of cars
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: messed up. I'm just saying A two one WTV and
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: is my number. Aaron's been staying on or staying on
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: here through the brake, so let's get him in. Aaron,
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: you're on six to ten WUTVN.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Hey, Chuck, what's going on?
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Man?
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Good to talk to you. I'm glad that you're feeling good. Hey,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: I just wanted to say a couple of things, the
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: veneers or the sorry of the implants that you're referring to.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Apparently people say that because there's no connection to the root,
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: that you don't have that same sense of feel in
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: your mouth. And I guess it's pretty common to bite
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: your tongue and your cheek a lot more when you're
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: trying to chew with those.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Really, I have not heard that.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: And then the other thing was man about you know
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: about the herpes is I can't wait to hear your story.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: But people don't really realize there's gobs of different kinds
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: out there. Man, get them on your hands and your
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: feet and all over the place.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Tell me about it, Aaron.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Anyway, I'm excited to hear the story. I hope you
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: guys have a great night. Thanks for a good show.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: You too, Aaron. Thank you. Zach has the beard herpies?
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: I think, don't you have the beard herpes?
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I just say I don't save the
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: beard very often, so I know they're there. I just
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: know that they.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: All of them are essentially like lice, aren't they herpes? Yeah?
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: The beard herpes are you can feel a moving it now.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: They're like they're bugs. That embed themselves, and I thought,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: I'm no expert. Thank goodness, Yeah, I can tell, but
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I'm just I thought that. I thought, you know, the
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: herpes virus was kind of like, it's just smaller version
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: of lice.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: I thought, I thought just like it was it was.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: It was a virus, but it's a living It's like bugs,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: isn't it. I don't know, are you thinking of Oh,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking a crap. Okay, See again, I'm no expert
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: on any of this. I've never had to worry about
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: that kind of thing. People say, how do you know
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: you don't have children? Because I know, I trust me,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: I know these things. Oh, take stock in yourself. The
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Ritz recall from the Food and Drug Administration. RITZ didn't
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: do this. Apparently the FDA got involved. Ritz cracker packs
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: nationwide because of mislabeling. Cartons may contain undeclared peanuts Impact
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Best or Inspectates Range my Gosh, impacted Best by Range
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: November twenty five and January twenty sixth, or through January
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: twenty sixth. No illnesses have been reported, but because there
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: may have been some peanuts used in the production of
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: those Ritz crackers, you're supposed to call them and say
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: give me a refund for my crackers. I guess that's
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Also, Sam's Club in Saint Clairsville, Ohio,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: that's up toward Kyahoga County, right, pretty sure, the fuel
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: truck comes and fills the tanks underground so you can
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: pump the fuel from the pumps into your car. Well,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: some guy who is likely unemployed today, who was filling
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: those tanks put diesel in the gas. So people who
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: went to the gas pump to pump eighty seven octane
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: unloaded fuel got diesel in their cars. Now, for those
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: of you that are not mechanically inclined, this is a problem.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: It was not a Sam's Club or Walmart truck. It
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: was a third party fuel supplier that did the inadvertent
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: mix up. The issue went unnoticed until customers began posting
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: on Facebook their vehicles would not start. Jerry Witzberger, the
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: owner of ASAP Auto Care, explained what happens to an
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: engine when diesel fuel was used in an engine designed
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: for unleaded gasoline. It's pretty easy. Diesel fuels thick and heavy.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: It's a high oil content. It is not refined the
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: way gasoline is, so he says, Hopefully it didn't get
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: through the whole system. If it got into the point
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: where it was your car wouldn't start. The whole thing's
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: going to have to be flood. Hopefully you haven't done
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: any engine damage yet, but it will definitely shut down
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: your car. In many cases, the engine is salvageable, but
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the process can be costly. It may require your vehicle
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: to spend a full day, a full day whatever at
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the shop. So when's the last time you got a Carlo,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Well you basically when's the last time you got a
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: car out of a shop in a day? Yeah? I know,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Sam said, we're actively addressing to address the situation, or
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: actually working to address the situation, and are dedicated to
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: making things right for a Festiica. And there's going to
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: be the people are going to want new engines, new
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: fuel systems, new cars. It's going to happen when you
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: go to something that is government regulated, inspected and the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: vendor finds a way to screw it up and possibly
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: screw up your your tens of thousands of dollars worth
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: of vehicle. Yeah, you're going to want compensated. Yeah, be furious.
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: I had I missed work and you need to pay
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: me for loss of time. I mean, this could go
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: on and on and on.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: I'm unemployed, but I I wasn't able to go out
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and look for work, so I need to be compensated.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: For her I'm still in everybody. I'm still with the government,
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: the county commissioner, why all of them?
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Why not? Man, there's a check to be had everywhere.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: That's just what a shame that something like that happened.
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: All right, So the herpee story, I know you are
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: on the edge of your seat. Doctors. This is a
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: New York Post story. Doctors are using herpes to fight cancer.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I'm not making this up. I am not making this now.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I've already seen the reports about these new lasers that
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: are basically they use laser technology and AI technology to
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: detect cancer cells and they knock out the cancer cells.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: They bust them up in the system, which is hopefully
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: going to be a wonderful alternative to chemotherapy. But doctors
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: at the University of Southern California have turned her into
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: a cancer fighter. They took herpie simplex virus type one,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: remove the parts that cause blisters, and tweaked it so
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: that the germ attacks tumor cells. A study of one
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: hundred and forty people who's advanced melanoma no longer responded
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: to regular care, the combo shrank the tumors by at
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: least thirty percent in about a third of those patients.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: It wiped out all signs of cancer in nearly one
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: out of six. What that is you talk about? God
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: send news right there? That is uh. I'm a firm
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: believer that there is nothing that afflicts us for which
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: there is not a cure on this planet.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: It just hasn't been found yet.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I'm with you. It would
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: it not be amazing to find that one of the
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: vermin of our existence is also the savior. That that's
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: just the way life works out, Just the way life
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: works out. Sometimes they say herpes. Of course they call
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: it the gift that keeps on giving. Could be useful
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: in this case. Of those one hundred and forty people, again,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: the tumors shrank by at least thirty percent, and about
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: a third wiped out all signs of cancer in nearly
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: one out of six, which may not sound like a
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: tremendous number of people, but that's a very hopeful study.
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: Any progress who knows what this could lead to, that
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: could lead to something else, that could lead who knows
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: right exactly.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: So that's great. They've got a larger trial coming up,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: what they call Phase three, and that's that's actually underway
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: right now, and instead of one hundred and forty, they're
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: using four hundred cancer patients and I'm truly looking forward
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: to that. I want to see what the result is.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: A two ninety eight six my number eight two WUTV
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: and Cliff has some thoughts on the dental implants. Clint,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to look beautiful, man, tell me what you
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: need to tell me.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: Hey, I lost some of uppers because of COVID because
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: I had a calcium deficiency. And yeah, it's a foreign
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: body in your mouth. But if you get a real
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: good uh dentist that knows what he's doing, they can
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: make it right. Like that person talking about biting your
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: tongue or scraping. They'll make those adjustments and they actually
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: look pretty good. They're better than having dentris in your mouth.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Let me let me ask you this, Cliff, when you
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: got them, did you get are they bright white? Did
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you get bright teeth? Did you did you say, hey,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: I want. I need these to be kind of dull.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: I need them to look like I'm a grown man
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: that's had a cup of coffee.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: They they actually bring a little chart in. You got
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: the bright white Hollywood, then you got the smokers look okay.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: But what I got, what I got lucky with is
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: when I had had to have my uppers removed, I
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: had them cast. So my my implants look absolutely like
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: my original teeth.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: That right there is what I'm looking for, because I've
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: got I've got a gap in the front of my
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: mouth that my dad he had, that his daddy had,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that my sisters have. We all have it, and it's
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: a family thing. We've all got this gap in their
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: two front teeth. I don't want to give that up.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: As crazy as that sounds.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Well, you're an old boy from Columbus. There's a guy
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: I won't tell on the air, but if you want
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: me to, I'll tell you off the air. He's a
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: really good guy, really good prices, because the problem is
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: these guys that advertise on television are screwing people over
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: hardcore on prices.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've looked at some of those prices anywhere from
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: fourteen up to about thirty two thousand dollars is what
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I've seen.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Well, what I got my mouth right now is twenty
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: five thousand dollars. What Clear Choice wanted to charge me
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: was forty five thousand.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: That's a big difference.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: But the convenience I can whistle now, I couldn't whistle
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: with denters. I couldn't sneeze without worrying about them popping
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: on my mouth.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: All right, I'll tell you what can I will put
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: you on hold so if you will give Zach the
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the info on where you went, because I you know,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: you've got my attention, especially with that kind of price difference.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: And again I want I don't want perfect I don't
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: want glowing Hollywood tea. I just like to, you know,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: have a nice smile. If I'm gonna be thinner, if
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna hopefully get in better shape, I want a
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: nice smile. Is that asking too much? I don't think so. Cliff,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: You're on I'm sorry, Chuck, You're on sixthen w TV,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: And I how did I mess up? Chucky? How could
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: I mess up?
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: Chuck? How did you do that?
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: So?
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: One thing I think about you? Your voice is very
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: important to you. Yes, how you make your living. Everyone
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: I've ever seen has had those implants their voice. Really, okay,
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: you might want to give a real consideration two before
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: you take.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: That leap that would killer right there.
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it is for you, I think it would be, honestly.
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: And Saint Clair'sville is out by Wheeling.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, so it's going to be more east southeast
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: from here. For some reason, I thought I was by Cuyahoga.
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: Now it's like fifteen miles from Wheeling on the side
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: of the river.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, you didn't get any Sam's gas out there,
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: did you.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: I did not. I do go there for worker every
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: once in a while, but now I did not get
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: sam seats.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, Chuck. I appreciate the info, especially that warning about
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: the voice, because that is a that is a big
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: consideration I had years ago. If you've been with me anytime,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: you know I had surgery on my spine and they
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: didn't tell me at the time because I was desperate.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I couldn't walk, I couldn't button my shirts. My left
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: leg was a dead piece of meat. Frankly, I did
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: not know when nature was calling, and half the time
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: I go, oh my gosh, what did I just do.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I had no feeling from the neck down. I was
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: dead because my spine had been damaged to the point
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: where the signals from my brain were not able to
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: travel to the rest of my body, and so my
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: body base was just shutting down. I wasn't going to
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: negotiate anything. They said, we can help you. In fact,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: the neurologist came in the room and he said, his
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: quote was another eighteen months or so, you'll be a quadriplegic.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: I can't do a damn thing for And I said,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: then do what you gotta do to do the surgery,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: to put the screws in the back of my head
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: and get my spine straightened out and all that stuff.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: They went in through the front. They didn't tell me.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: I hadn't asked about it. I didn't know this was
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: going to happen. But they went in through the front
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: of my neck. I still have a scar, and basically,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: you know, grab my esophagus, vocal cords and everything and
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: pushed them aside and held them aside in order to
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: get in there to do what they needed to do
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: in my spine. When I came out of the anesthesia,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: I was Yoda. I herable that was like this, and
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I cried, I, you know, there are better voices than mine,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: but this one's mine, and I know how to use it.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I know what to do with it. And when I
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: opened my mouth the first time and I heard that,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I thought I was done. So h yeah. I haven't
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: had much to offer in my lifetime except for whatever
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: talent God gave me, and a lot of that revolves
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: around what comes out of my face. And frankly, if
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: all my teeth fell out, I would not get them
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: replaced if it meant I would lose the voices that
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: I have because they are what I do. I know
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: that probably sounds crazy, but it's too much a part
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: of me to say goodbye to. So Chuck. I appreciate
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: the U. I appreciate that warning. I have not heard
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: that as any kind of admonition before. All Right, well, nobody,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: don't go out and start, you know, collect thing herpes,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: rus cups or anything. There's still that studies underway, but
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: that is some great news
