  Speaker 1: Good morning, and welcome to the Lee Elsey Show, Voice
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: of Freedom on 94.9 FM. And I'm Marty Olson, pinch-hitting
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: for the great Lee Elsey. And I'm looking forward to
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: opening the Friday morning for you for the first hour.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: And we've got a lot going on in many different areas.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: So we'll open up with a little high school stuff.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: We've got high school football coming up this evening with
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: Robert E. Fitch from visiting the Wailing City in London
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: at 6.30 in the evening. And I anticipate a pretty
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: fiery contest between the two schools on either side of
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: the Thames River. And I'm looking forward to attending the
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: game tonight. London football is back under the tutelage of
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Coach Jack Cochran. And he's got the Whalers off to
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: a 4-0 start. And they've been winning pretty handily. I
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: believe Fitch will be a bit stiffer competition. But we'll see.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: That's where they play the games, as they say. And
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: that's at Cannon Mellow Field, and looking forward to that.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: I'd also like to extend a big thank you to
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Lee and the station for their support of the New
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: London Kiwanis Club's annual golf tournament. This past September, we
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: had our annual tournament over Shenokasit, and it was very successful.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: We raised a net of over $ 25, 000, and all of
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: that goes back into the community and helps to support
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: our scholarship program. endowment and each year we were able
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: to award three three thousand dollar scholarships to graduating high
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: school seniors and that's kind of our signature program and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: we're very proud of that so for those folks who
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: participated and contributed helped out we really want to thank
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: you and thank lee especially for all he does for
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: us and uh what else do we got going on
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: here well My goodness, it's election time. So we've got
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: local elections for state offices. We've got congressional. We've got governor.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: And we've got the national midterms. So there's an awful
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: lot going on, an awful lot at stake, I might add.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: And I'm very interested in what you out there might
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: have to say, what you're concerned about. and where you
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: think things are going. But if you'd like to call in,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: we are at 860-464-9490. So please feel free to give
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: us a call. I enjoy the banter and to get
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: what you're thinking about. But at the election level, I'd
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: like to just kind of give you an overview of
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: some of the races today. Here in southeastern Connecticut for
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: the 39th District in the state, we've got John Russell
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: taking out incumbent Anthony Nolan. And John has run for
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: office before. And he runs Homer Bound Treasures in downtown
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: New London, also a member of the Kiwanis Club. And
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I think that he brings a level of savvy with him.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: His business background, he's also a Navy vet, worked in engineering.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Excuse me. And I think he brings a set of
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: skills that would be well served up in Hartford. So
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I think he's merited to give him a good look.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: If you get a chance to talk to him, I
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: think you'll be impressed. And quite frankly, the incumbent, I
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: don't know if he's ever initiated any... legislation. He's on
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Facebook a lot, but I'm not necessarily sure if that's
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: the place that we need our representatives. I'd like to
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: see him out and about. And where I live in
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the southern part of New London, we've got Isabel Rood.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: She's taking on incumbent Daniel... Gajewski, I guess that's how
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: you pronounce his last name. I've never met the gentleman.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: I find that fascinating. A gentleman such as myself, who's
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: active out and about, hasn't met my state rep.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Maybe he only travels in Democratic circles. Ms. Rood has
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: been working very hard. She's quite young. She's 17. She'll
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: be 18 before the election. She's a senior at Fitch
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: High School. And I think, again, she's bringing a breath
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: of fresh air into the campaign. She's working very, very hard.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: And if you have an opportunity to speak to her,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: I think you'll be impressed. And you may want to
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: give her the opportunity and give her a vote. She's
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: well worth consideration. And Another race that I think is
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: going to be interesting is incumbent, and this is on
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: this side of the river, with Heather Summers, state senate.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: She's being challenged by former state rep Joe Delacruz. And
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I think Heather's record speaks for itself. She's been a
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: terrific senator, representative of her region and beyond. and she's
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: a wealth of knowledge and knows how government works, and
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: she's able to do a terrific job from a minority position,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: and I... If I lived on this side of the river,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: she'd get my vote, that's for sure. And one of
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: my favorites over in Waterford, Doc Foley, who's a regular
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: guest here on the program, I've had him on my
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: television program a couple of times on City Focus, and.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: Here's a gentleman who really, really is passionate about what
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: he's doing, why he's running. He'll talk to anybody. He's accessible.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Quite frankly, he's almost like the ideal candidate. The guy
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: is going door to door. He's hit thousands of doors.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: And I've gotten feedback from friends I have in the
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Waterford area where he has sauntered up their front door
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: and rang the bell and had an opportunity to converse
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: with his potential constituents. And feedback I'm getting has been
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: extraordinarily favorable. And I think that we will, he'll do
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: a terrific job giving the opportunity to serve. So I'm
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: encouraging folks who, when you go out to vote, if
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: you have already voted, I guess we've got early voting
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: going on, but Election Day is on November 3rd, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: I sincerely hope that the results come in the evening
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: of November 3rd, and we're not going to wait a
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: week or two for Bruce Fork to come in, as
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: they say, to manipulate the final tallies. And we've also
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: got our statewide offices, and we've got.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: The governor, which is the top job in Connecticut. And
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: we've got the incumbent, Ned Lamont, who's seeking a third term.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure what he's done to merit that, but
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: we'll see. And he's being challenged by Ryan Fazio from Greenwich.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: And I've met Ryan a couple of times, most recently
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: at a function over in Flanders, at Flanders Fish Restaurant,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: And he's a sharp guy, and I think that given
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: the opportunity, he would be a breath of fresh air
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: and good change for the state of Connecticut. I find
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: that the incumbent, Lamont seems to just play follow the leader,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: whatever California and New York are doing. That seems to
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: be where he takes his cues as opposed to... What
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: may be in the best interest of the state of
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Connecticut is just following what these guys are doing. And,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: you know, those two states are significantly larger than we
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: are and have different issues. You'd think that we could
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: have a little independent thought. And I think if we
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: make a change, that might be. It's also been, for many,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: kind of the downfall of that third term. So give
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: that some consideration as well. And in that discussion, I
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: might add two gentlemen who I thoroughly enjoy listening to
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: and one in particular who I have often on my
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: own public access television program, Tony D'Angelo, better known as
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Tony D here on the station. The issues that he
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: brings up along with Bob Swick, I think are critical
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: and get very little attention. traction in the, if any traction,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: quite frankly, in the mainstream media, that these guys are
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: scratching under the fingernails of what's going on in state
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: government and there's a level of corruption and it gets
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: absolutely no notice. And I find that it's really repugnant
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: to my senses and it ought to be to yours
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: and that we allow this to go on. I will
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: chide my brethren in the GOP because I don't see
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: or hear anything the incumbents, or very many of the candidates,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: for that matter, were taking up the banner on these issues,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: which are very, very serious, and making an issue out
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: of real, real issues. You know, at the national level,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: you've got the level of corruption that's being ferreted out
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: in Minnesota and other places.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: It really.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: We can't in Oregon, here in Connecticut. We're too small.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: We don't have the extra resources to absorb this level
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: of financial skullduggery. We really should be tackling it, making
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: an issue of it, and it should be pounded at
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: our state news stations on Channel 3 and Channel 30,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Channel 8, as well as the statewide periodicals of the
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: current here locally with the day, New Haven Register, Manchester Inquirer,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: people have got to get the good, solid information and
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: get the facts and not have it just swept under
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the rug. And I'd just like to remind you, you're
• 11:39

  Speaker 19: He was looking for a soul to steal. He was
• 20:08
  Speaker 19: in a bind because he was way behind and he
• 20:09
  Speaker 19: was willing to make a deal. When he came across
• 20:12
  Speaker 19: this young man sewing on a fiddle and playing it hot,
• 20:14
  Speaker 19: and the devil jumped up on a hickory stump and said, Boy,
• 20:17
  Speaker 19: let me tell you what. I guess you didn't know it,
• 20:19
  Speaker 19: but I'm a fiddle player too. And if you'd care
• 20:22
  Speaker 19: to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you. Now,
• 20:25
  Speaker 19: you play pretty good fiddle, boy.
• 20:27
  Speaker 20: But give the devil.

  Speaker 1: we did have a call come in, and we're still
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: on that. Welcome to the program.
• 26:49
  Speaker 35: Good morning. I'm here.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Good morning. How are you?
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: I am well.
• 26:53
  Speaker 35: This is Grace over in Groton.
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Okay, Grace and Groton, how are you?
• 26:59
  Speaker 31: I'm well.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: What's on your mind this morning?
• 27:02
  Speaker 14: Lots.
• 27:05
  Speaker 36: Well, you and me both.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: Excuse me? You said lots. I said you and me
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: both have lots on our mind, but you're on, so
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: what do you got?
• 27:15
  Speaker 8: Who doesn't?
• 27:18
  Speaker 35: And what I've been meaning to say ever since.
• 27:26
  Speaker 35: Ever since Lee began running for— oh, I probably shouldn't say
• 27:30
  Speaker 35: his name, even though a certain.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Individual— Well, you're calling in. I think you've got a
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: more latitude than I do.
• 27:37
  Speaker 35: Okay, well, I like to be mindful of things.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Okay, so what— I like to live a balanced life.
• 27:48
  Speaker 35: I listen to NPR and the Lee Elsie Show.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: Well, you've got good taste.
• 27:56
  Speaker 35: Excuse me?
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: You have good taste.
• 27:59
  Speaker 38: Thank you.
• 28:00
  Speaker 35: I like to think that I do. I think it's
• 28:04
  Speaker 35: beautiful the way so many people have stepped up to
• 28:10
  Speaker 35: the plate for ladies during this time. I just think
• 28:17
  Speaker 35: it's wonderful. And I have to say, I wasn't sure
• 28:23
  Speaker 35: what was going to happen when it came time to vote,
• 28:27
  Speaker 35: because I have great respect for Martha Martin. And I
• 28:32
  Speaker 35: also have great respect for Lee Elsie. I can only
• 28:35
  Speaker 35: vote for one person. And I didn't know what I was.
• 28:39
  Speaker 39: Going to do.
• 28:41
  Speaker 35: And then I realized, I live in Gorton. I can't
• 28:43
  Speaker 35: vote for either one of them.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Well, that's true. But you've got a good choice in
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: the incumbent Heather Summers.
• 28:52
  Speaker 35: I don't know Heather Summers, but I'm trying to acquaint
• 28:56
  Speaker 35: myself with the people who represent me here in Groton.
• 29:01
  Speaker 35: And I appreciate what I hear on this show to
• 29:04
  Speaker 35: educate me about what's going on around here and the
• 29:09
  Speaker 35: local views in my area where I live. NPR covers,
• 29:16
  Speaker 35: you know, a lot, the general, the state in general
• 29:21
  Speaker 35: and the country. But I like knowing what's going on
• 29:25
  Speaker 35: in my backyard and next door where that horrendous fire
• 29:28
  Speaker 35: was a few months ago, which I slept through. I
• 29:31
  Speaker 35: didn't even realize what was happening until the next day.
• 29:35
  Speaker 35: But that being said, I just want to. say thank you.
• 29:42
  Speaker 35: And I wish everyone a wonderful day. And keep up
• 29:47
  Speaker 35: the good work, all of you.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much for calling and your positive remarks.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Thank you very much. And I wanted to share with
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: you that your local elected officials are the ones that
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: are closest to you and have the most impact on
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: your day-to-day life. Washington tends to get most of the air,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: you might say, but it's your local counselors and selectmen
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: and offices at that level, state reps and state senators
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: that will have more bearing on your day-to-day life. And
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: it's important to keep an eye on them and what
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: they're doing and hold their feet to the fire. Okay.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Very good. Well, listen, thank you very much. And feel
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: free to call back next week when the program comes
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: back on on Monday. All right.
• 30:48
  Speaker 40: Good.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: Have a good day, and we'll move it along here, okay?
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Okay, nice to get a call
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: to open up the program here at this segment. Some
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: local news, I think that is important that we share,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: but it also has a little bit of a regional thing.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I don't want to leave Asmian periodically primarily to discuss
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: new London topics, but.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: I think what goes on in New London has a
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: bearing on what's going on in the region. Ocean Beach,
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Ocean Beach Park. We have a decision being made by
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: the city administration to have a contract for David Shigeru
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: to manage the facility for another year. The company he
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: had worked for, Sodexo, Their contract expired at the end
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: of September, and they were, for a short time, a
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: ship out in the middle of the ocean without a paddle.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: And they negotiated with David to stay in that position
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: and operate the facility for the next year through 9-30-27.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: I think that I've always been an advocate for Dave.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: I think he's done a terrific job for an extended
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: period of time. He and I go back to our early,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: maybe even teens, sharing how we were going to solve
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: all the world's problems growing up. But I can't think
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: of a gentleman who has got more love and passion
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: for the Ocean Beach Park than Dave Chagrou. I think
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: he's done a... a terrific job with the resources that
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: he's had at his disposal. And quite frankly, over many years,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: you know, the city has not necessarily invested very well
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: with the beach, especially in the capital area of the
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: buildings and the grounds. And they expect him to provide miracles.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: And I think, again, with what he's had to work with,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: he's done minor miracles. And we'll be well served for
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: the next year. And I hope that the city doesn't
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: wait until the 11th hour to try to figure out
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: what they're doing. I think that's one of the problems
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: with the beach is that the city really doesn't know
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: what they want. So it's hard to develop a proposal
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: for potential operators when you don't know. Because everybody's kind
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: of flying around blindly. And You may get a little
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: bit of what you want, maybe not. And not everybody's
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: on the same page. And you really need to come
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: up with some definitive ideas of what's going on. So
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: I wish Dave the best. And anything I could do
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: to assist him or support him during this following year,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: I will do. And I would encourage folks to visit
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Ocean Beach Park. It's a beautiful facility. And it's one
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: of the nicest beaches on the East Coast. And, you know,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Jeff Mullen running the rides in the arcade, and they've
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: got other amenities at the facility that you can take
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: advantage of. So it's not just a beach, as they
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: have said in different advertising campaigns. Another issue I think
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: that merits discussion are dirt bikes. I don't know about you,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: but these things are out of control. And I, in
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: New London, welcome, Steve. And I just find it rather
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: repugnant the tolerance that government at all levels has for
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: these dangerous operators to themselves as well as to the
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: general public. And the locals throwing up their arms saying, well,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: it's not our job, it's the state. The state is
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: dictating the policies or lack thereof. Well, my answer to
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: that is, what about my rights? Or Steve's rights? Or
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: your rights? Should you have to tolerate these wild men
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: on these dirt bikes Doing wheelies and weaving in and
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: out of traffic, going up and down one-way streets the
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: wrong way and just creating hate and discontent. I think
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: that's wrong. But what our local leaders have to do
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: is they need to take and make resolutions for our
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: state reps to get a little guidance because the state
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: reps have no incentive to to do anything without a
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: push from our local officials. Until our local officials do
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: something and say, look, we've got a problem here and
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: we need your assistance, they're going to sit on their hands,
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: and they have been. So for our counselors in New London,
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: and I know this problem is beyond New London, it's
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: in almost every community in the state of Connecticut, but
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: I'll be a little provincial here since I'm a New
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: London guy. that the New Orleans City Council's got a
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: responsibility to take this thing up and draw up a
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: resolution of what they want to see. They want help
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: from the state. They need statutes with teeth that's going
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: to deter this type of activity in our community. In turn,
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: it would be in all 169 cities and towns in
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: the state. But this is not acceptable behavior. The level
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: of danger is profound, and it needs to be addressed.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: We can't play ostrich. That doesn't work. And it should
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: not be a partisan issue. This is something that's going
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: on in Republican towns, in Democratic towns, all towns. And
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Hartford's got to step up on this as well. Now,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: a state rep locally, as I've seen on Facebook, he's
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: made a comment that, well, he's introduced legislation and it's
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: been supported. Well, I haven't seen any clear and definitive
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: action on this issue. So please, call your local reps,
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: your local counselors, selectmen, whatever government you've got in your community,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: and demand that they start taking action. This is unacceptable.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: We can't have this type of activity in our community.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: So don't be shy. I can tell you from sitting
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: in our local government in London that your local officials
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: actually will take action when the electorate comes in and
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: bangs on the table. Please do. Another, I think, major
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: topic is the level of apartments that are being constructed
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: in New London and the region. This is something that
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: obviously is being in response to the hiring of the
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: electric boat, and there is a need for housing. I
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: do worry about the.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: The apartments that are being built, that they're all pretty
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: much high-end, geared for engineers, coming into the region, they
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: do need a place to live. But what is also
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: happening is you've got forcing and raising the rent on
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: all other housing and making the region itself expensive. much
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: less affordable. And you've got folks who are basically your
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: locals who have been here for a while. They're getting
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: nervous and have formed tenant associations and they're looking for
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: some breathing room. But I've got to tell you, if
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: you start putting in rent control... That has proven to
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: be an ineffective way of dealing with these issues. It
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: creates shortages. It creates lack of maintenance because the landlords
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: are not in business altruistically. They're in business to make money.
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: That's their business. That's how they support themselves. So you've
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: got to be careful with what you ask for and
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: wish for. But the basic economics of this is a
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: little bit frightening. And I might add that those who
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: are renting, they're not really having a vested interest in
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: our community. And London in particular has got a very
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: skewed ratio between renters and homeowners. It was bad before
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: all these apartments went up, and this is just exacerbating
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: things with higher rents. And that's not going to be
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: good for the folks who have been living here for generations.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: So we've got to be careful with what we are
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: doing here. We have to be very cognizant. And you
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: can't expect these folks to be, again, working for nothing.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: But I wish we'd see more houses going up as
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: opposed to apartments. Middle class is the backbone of any community,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: and we don't need a high-end, low-end, with no in-the-middle constituency.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, your middle class is the guys and gals
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: who are going to be your scout leaders and your coaches.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: These are the folks that really are going to pull
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: it together, and they'll stay when they're vested. You've got
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: a home. an apartment's much easier to get out of
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: if you decide that you want to move on, whether
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: you get another job. Or if your personal situation changes.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: Because all these new apartments also, by the way, are
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: not geared for families. They're geared for young singles, young couples,
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: empty nesters, but not with kids. So they have... Young
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: couple gets married and they have children. What are they
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: going to do? Are they going to stay in New
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: London or are they going to move out? And here, again,
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: is a situation with the quality of our school district.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: If the schools are not getting it done and the
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: London schools are struggling, where are they going to go?
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: Are they going to stay? Are they going to gamble
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: with their kids' education? I think not. They'll move on.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: Another thing to consider is that Congress could change its
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: mind on a dime and stop funding these submarines. And
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: then what happens? These folks that have been hired are
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: going to have to be looking for work, and they'll
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: be vacating the area. So we're hitching all of our
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: horses to one wagon here. It's not necessarily the best
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: economic model here. So we've got to start broadening our
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: thoughts in how we're handling this. the issues of our day,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: because they're going to have impact down the road, and
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: we don't want to see all those new apartments turning
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: into something less than what they were intended for. We're
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: getting near break time here, so Engineer, what do you think?
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: He's next, so you're Apparently you're going to toss me out.
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: I'm being asked to leave because Steve Elsie's here already.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: I've been keeping the seat warm for him. So we'll
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: pass the baton. It's been a lot of fun. And
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: I want to thank Lee for the opportunity to sit
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: in for an hour this morning on The Voice of Freedom.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: Thank you very much, and we'll catch you next time.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Thank you.

  Speaker 3: A bolt of fear went.
• 45:00
  Speaker 30: Through him As they thundered through the sky For he

  Speaker 31: It's been a while since I've been on the radio.
• 57:17
  Speaker 21: Thanks for having me on.
• 57:18
  Speaker 20: Yeah, of course. You know, we've been at multiple events recently,
• 57:21
  Speaker 20: and I've, you know, personally been out there performing at
• 57:24
  Speaker 20: these events. And I've seen you many times deliver your
• 57:29
  Speaker 20: speeches out, you know, in the community, knocking on doors.
• 57:33
  Speaker 20: I know you're working really hard. It's amazing to see,
• 57:35
  Speaker 20: you know, from a third party view here, Joe. You know,
• 57:38
  Speaker 20: watching all of you guys, not just you, but all
• 57:40
  Speaker 20: the candidates just go out into the community and just
• 57:43
  Speaker 20: do their thing, trying to get their messages out there
• 57:45
  Speaker 20: is pretty, it's a unique sight to see.
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: It really is.
• 57:49
  Speaker 21: Yeah, well, thanks for saying that. And I know me
• 57:52
  Speaker 21: and all the other candidates. I know it's because the
• 57:55
  Speaker 21: more you talk to people on the doors, the more
• 57:57
  Speaker 21: you understand what they're going through. You think you know
• 58:01
  Speaker 21: until you actually go door to door. I think folks
• 58:04
  Speaker 21: are in a lot worse positions than a lot of times.
• 58:06
  Speaker 21: And we even, think or give credit for because, you know,
• 58:10
  Speaker 21: a lot of us, I know me in particular, I'm
• 58:13
  Speaker 21: pretty fortunate. My wife and I have been very fortunate,
• 58:16
  Speaker 21: lucky to have our help, you know, our home, and
• 58:19
  Speaker 21: we feel fortunate. So knocking on doors and hearing some
• 58:23
  Speaker 21: of the stories of what folks are dealing with and
• 58:25
  Speaker 21: going through, it's It just makes you want to knock
• 58:27
  Speaker 21: the next door.
• 58:29
  Speaker 31: It's addicting.
• 58:29
  Speaker 11: I get it.
• 58:30
  Speaker 20: I get it. Well, listen, what inspired you to run
• 58:33
  Speaker 20: for the 18th Senate District? What's going to be one
• 58:37
  Speaker 20: of your top priorities for the towns that you're representing there?
• 58:39
  Speaker 11: What's happening?
• 58:40
  Speaker 21: I've got to be careful about how much I talk
• 58:42
  Speaker 21: because there's a million things that really– and a lot
• 58:46
  Speaker 21: of it has to do with Southeastern Connecticut. I am
• 58:49
  Speaker 21: from here. I do want to make it more affordable.
• 58:52
  Speaker 21: When I go door-to-door and understand– really understand that people
• 58:56
  Speaker 21: really are not making it. I want to protect folks
• 58:59
  Speaker 21: from the legislation that's coming down from D.C. I think that,
• 59:04
  Speaker 21: you know, there's a big, beautiful bill that's about to
• 59:06
  Speaker 21: come through, and I really don't think folks are ready
• 59:08
  Speaker 21: for it. I think uh a lot of folks even
• 59:11
  Speaker 21: on the other side of the aisle um uh i
• 59:14
  Speaker 21: don't know if they understand that the legislation and how
• 59:16
  Speaker 21: it's going to affect folks on medicaid uh it's it's
• 59:20
  Speaker 21: devastating uh it's swift i spoke at uh at something
• 59:24
  Speaker 21: yesterday that was that really uh It shows you the
• 59:27
  Speaker 21: nonprofits and how much you've been hurting and how much
• 59:30
  Speaker 21: more we're going to ask of them.
• 59:31
  Speaker 31: You know, the.
• 59:32
  Speaker 21: 18th District, it's got historic shoreline towns, very exclusive homes
• 59:38
  Speaker 21: in one section. Then you go up north, it's very rural,
• 59:41
  Speaker 21: you know, and I'm learning the whole entire district. I'm
• 59:44
  Speaker 21: excited to learn the district. And I want to make sure,
• 59:47
  Speaker 21: you know, families get relief, these rising costs. And while
• 59:52
  Speaker 21: through all of this, make sure our local businesses, again,
• 59:54
  Speaker 21: the support they need. And lastly, to make sure that
• 59:57
  Speaker 21: the school funding, which really drives most of our local
• 59:59
  Speaker 21: property taxes, ends up getting increased here from the state
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 21: because it's our main way in the state legislature that
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 21: we can lower taxes for folks in these municipalities and towns.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 20: Well, you know, speaking of taxes, you know, there's high
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 20: electric bills, taxes. They're major concerns for the local residents.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 20: You know, how are you going to lower these taxes?
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 20: What are you going to do?
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 21: Yeah, and everyone says– well, the politician said, I'm going
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 21: to lower your taxes.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 47: Right.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 31: And then they get.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 21: Elected and find out how difficult it can be.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 20: Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 21: The electric bill is no different. And we need to
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 21: deliver targeted relief to the middle class. And what I
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 21: mean is there are taxes that we can do and
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 21: target that are going to help the middle class and
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 21: working poor specifically. There's everyday essentials. And I know they
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 21: passed a bill last year. I think it was– school
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 21: supplies and stuff like that. I want to make sure
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 21: that we make, we expand it to the children's clothing, uh,
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 21: and other items that are absolutely needed, uh, get rid
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 21: of the tax on stuff like that. Uh, you know,
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 21: just to give them that little break and, and that's
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 21: a way of targeting the folks that need it most, uh,
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 21: on energy. Uh, you know, I was there before and
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 21: I was one of the people that voted, uh, for
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 21: as well as my opponent voted to save the millstone bill, uh,
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 21: And although a lot of people, you know, they're upset
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 21: about that public benefit charge, and I am too, I
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 21: think something like that would need to get put into
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 21: the budget. No longer can we add it to the
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 21: end of an electric bill. And we also have to
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 21: claw back on these companies. They can only make so
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 21: much money, and they say they have to do it,
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 21: and they do projections. I think I looked it up,
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 21: and– You know, Eversource made $ 1. 69 billion last year. And
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 21: if you look at the last 10 years, they've always
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 21: made over a billion. There was the exception of one
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 21: year where they had a loss. But I think we
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 21: should be looking at the bottom line at the end
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 21: of the fiscal year. And if you see a profit,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 21: that is ridiculous. So make sure all these profits are
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 21: real profits and they're not throwing big, huge bonus money
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 21: to cut down what the profit looks like. You know,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 21: making sure that it's an even playing field for ratepayers.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 21: Those are a couple things that we can do.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 20: Sounds, you know, that's a lot. You know, you got
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 20: your hands full with that for sure. But I think
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 20: you can do it. Absolutely. The 18th district that you're
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 20: going to be representing relies heavily on small business and tourism.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 20: Stonington and local shops in Griswold, you know, how are
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 20: you going to help them thrive?
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 21: There's a bunch of ways that you can do that.
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 31: And you know what?
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 21: The state doesn't get credit for everything they do. It's
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 21: a government, and people want to assume that there's nothing
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 21: good coming out of the government, when in actuality, as
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 21: someone who ran a small business, you know, I wasn't
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 21: the owner, but I was tasked with everything that an
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 21: owner would have to do. One of those things was
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 21: looking for grants and ways that the state could help
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 21: our business. We used it multiple times. It's called the
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 21: MVP grant. If you're out there listening and and you
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 21: own a business. It was specifically for manufacturing. But basically,
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 21: you know, we were looking at a press break that
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 21: we wanted a few years back, found this program, and
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 21: the press break was $ 150, 000. The state came in and
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 21: said that they would pay for one-third of it. We
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 21: ended up buying it, something that we may not have bought.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 21: And I think that was an initiative that I supported
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 21: while I was up there, too, of really talking to
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 21: the businesses that are already in your state, Not sending
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 21: your governor across the country with a bag of money
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 21: and tax incentives telling other businesses how to get to Connecticut.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 21: That's part of growing Connecticut. But the biggest part of
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 21: growing Connecticut is really working with the businesses that are
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 21: already brick and mortar in your state. And I was
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 21: really proud to be part of that. We ended up,
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 21: before I left, I am retired now, we ended up
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 21: buying a water jet. You know, water jets are like
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 21: a $ 300, 000 machine. I'm using those numbers for round numbers.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 21: and I think we got like 100,000, I can't remember exactly,
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 21: from the state, and that was through a program that
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 21: really encourages manufacturing in Connecticut. And if you're listening to
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 21: this and you're looking for help on that, just reach
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 21: out to my website, or you can just look up
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 21: the MVP grant in the state. Those are ways that
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 21: we can do it in local shops in Griswold or Stonington,
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 21: no matter where they are. You know, I've had a
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 21: lot of meetings already, you know, and again, this is
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 21: I am the chair of the Economic Development Committee in Groton.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 21: So when I left office, I went right back in
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 21: and it was really been like we're rolling the boat
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 21: in the same direction. It was a refreshing time. I'm
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 21: still there. I'm still the chair. And, you know, we
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 21: work with we're advocating for the state to give back
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 21: some of those you know, tourism dollars that have been
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 21: earned down here on this side of the state. Um,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 21: I think, you know, there's folks that are in the
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 21: state that think that all just happens. Um, and I,
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 21: you know, you need a strong advocate in Hartford to let,
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 21: you know, folks know that, you know, that money is,
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 21: is being earned because, you know, businesses are advertising and
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 21: they're bringing people to Connecticut. And I want to increase
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 21: that funding because, uh, that's, that's a way we can
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 21: really help them.
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 51: Yeah.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 14: Yeah.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: Right on.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 20: Um, You know, moving on here, as I'm thinking out loud,
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 20: you know, health care is critical. You know, it's expensive.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 20: You know, how are you going to work to make
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 20: it more affordable, Joe?
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 21: When I talked about knocking on doors earlier, I think
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 21: off-air I was talking with you, and when I go
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 21: to the door, the amount of people that don't have
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 21: the prescriptions they need, I mean, we hear this rhetoric
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 21: all the time from politicians, right? And I say from
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 21: politicians because really they are the front lines. We're knocking
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 21: on doors and going down driveways. You know, I've been
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 21: down driveways that people say that no one's ever been
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 21: to their door. And the story is common. It's, you know,
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 21: and if I didn't, if I knock doors today, like
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 21: I'm gonna, I'm gonna go out there and I'll spend
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 21: six hours on the door and three hours of three
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 21: and a half hours, we'll be talking about prescription drugs
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 21: and medical and probably their electric bill. Healthcare, it's no
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 21: family should have to choose between putting food on the
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 21: table or a prescription. I talked to one young lady
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 21: that basically her whole life has been allergic to bees,
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 21: got stung, and her normal protocol was to go into
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 21: the emergency room and get a shot and be monitored.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 21: Or she'd get the shot first, go to the emergency room,
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 21: and leave the emergency room like two hours after, after
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 21: being monitored with a new EpiPen. She told me she
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 21: didn't have the money to do it the last time.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 21: She gave herself a shot. She called a friend. A
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 21: friend came and just sat with her for a few
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 21: hours to make sure she didn't have a secondary attack.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 21: That could have all went sideways. She could have had
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 21: the secondary. An ambulance could have been called. She could
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 21: have been put in a, you know, chemically induced coma
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 21: because she lost her oxygen for too long. And it's
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 21: spending good money early, like making sure someone like that
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 21: had access to the EpiPen right away and access to
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 21: go to the emergency room. That's a true savings in
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 21: the end because... If we did pay and made it
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 21: affordable and she did go, we're avoiding the possibility of
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 21: what could come very expensive later. You know, health care
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 21: that ends up topping over a million dollars. And in
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 21: the end, how do you, you know, you want people
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 21: to feel safe. And she didn't. And right after that call,
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 21: I'd say like eight hours later when I'm making phone calls,
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 21: I told that story to another young lady. And she said, oh,
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 21: my God, my heart just dropped. because I'm going to
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 21: a baby shower this morning and I really don't have
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 21: nothing to say because my best friend who's pregnant is
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 21: highly allergic to bees and she does not have an EpiPen.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 31: And I need an EpiPen.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 21: And I immediately thought maybe I should just get mine
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 21: and I'll give it to her. And I don't buy
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 21: my EpiPen personally because it's like a hazelnut allergy and
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 21: apples and I haven't been convinced that I actually need it,
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 21: but it costs like $ 500 for me. So, yeah, it's
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 21: probably a financial choice that I make. For this young
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 21: lady being pregnant, she doesn't have a choice. She's just
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 21: going without it. So I looked up Planned Parenthood to
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 21: see if they offered that service.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 4: They didn't.
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 31: And then I.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 21: Found out that she had recently just got on Husky
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 21: and found out that she does qualify under Husky. And
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 21: she was going to get it. But we tried to
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 21: try to do the follow-up. I think of that, that
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 21: person often, and I hope it worked out, but that's,
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 21: those are the choices and, and, you know, getting access
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 21: to it. Um, I've always voted to, to, to really
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 21: try to get that, those prices down, keep prescription drug
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 21: costs down. Cause it matters.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 20: It does matter. It absolutely does matter. And what also
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 20: matters is, uh, you know, in these communities, you know,
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 20: taxes are heavy, are a heavy burden for many towns, Joe,
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 20: you know, that, um, You know, how can you relieve
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 20: the pressure of these taxes and still support public schools?
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 21: It's a million, well, let's say billion-dollar question.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 31: Right?
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 21: Every single town in the state is obligated to educate
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 21: our kids. The 169 municipalities, some shared high schools and
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 21: middle schools and some of the smaller towns, and they
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 21: all rely on ECS. It doesn't matter. On the other
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 21: side of the state, some of the towns don't qualify
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 21: for it. It's based on need. You know, Groton, I
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 21: know our numbers inside and out. I represent in New London.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 21: I know their numbers. I'm learning the numbers of the
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 21: eight towns that are in the 18th district. What's in
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 21: common is it's all ECS. And when people say, how
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 21: can I lower taxes for someone in Voluntown? And it
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 21: really is quite easy. It has to do with educational cost-sharing.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 21: That's a number that, if you've never heard of it,
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 21: has a lot to do with the bill that you
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 21: pay your tax at the end of the year. Because
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 21: if you only get, you know, I know just for
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 21: ground numbers, Groton gets $ 25 million for educational cost share
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 21: from the state. I was on the RTM in 2000,
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 21: and it was $ 25 million. I was on the RTM
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 21: from 2000 to 2008, and when I left.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 31: It was $ 25 million.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 21: When I came back and ran for office after coaching
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 21: basketball and baseball and everything I got, uh, wrote back
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 21: into politics by a good friend. Um, and the first
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 21: budget came through and I said, that number can't be right.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 21: Cause this is 25 million for educational cost sharing from
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 21: the state. Um, and they said, no, that's exactly what
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 21: it is. It never increased.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 21: Um, until this day. So from 2000 and it's 2026,
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 21: I would be going into the, 2027 budget, it's always
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 21: been $ 25 million. This past year, they were able to
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 21: get the secondary funding. So for the first time, they
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 21: increased it. And I look to really fund that because,
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 21: you know, it's not in the town's charter. No matter
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 21: which 169 municipality you live in, it's not in their
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 21: charter to educate the children. It's in Connecticut State's constitution.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 21: And we need to take on that challenge as a
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 21: state and make sure that each town.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 31: Is is equal, too.
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 21: There's different tax bases in different towns. We always see
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 21: in some of the richer towns that their field trip
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 21: might be better than the one that is in the
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 21: lower area. Or maybe the lower cost area doesn't go
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 21: on the field trip at all. It's a way that
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 21: the state can equalize that. And I think there's room
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 21: to do better on that. So local property taxes, I'd
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 21: say if you're talking to a politician how they're going
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 21: to fix that, that's probably the number one way we're
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 21: going to be able to do it. And I am
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 21: laser focused on it.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 36: Okay.
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 20: All right. Excellent.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 20: A lot of work there, Joe. A lot of work.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 18: Yeah.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 20: Look, you know, recently your opponent had a mailer out
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 20: that hit you, a little hit piece on you with
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 20: some different things. Do you want to address any of that?
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 44: Yeah.
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 31: You know what?
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 21: It's funny. That's one of my number one questions I get.
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 9: Okay.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 21: The folks that know me and knew the absolute pit
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 21: in my stomach when I left the legislature back in
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 21: 2022 after six years, the first five years I somehow managed.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 21: I was getting up at 4 in the morning, doing
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 21: some of my work for my job, and then at
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 21: 10 o'clock leaving and trying to come back at 3 o'clock.
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 21: I didn't realize when I first got elected day one,
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 21: they gave me my schedule, and it was basically– 9
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 21: o'clock in the morning, be in Hartford, and then leave
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 21: at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Monday through Friday. And,
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 21: you know, when I first ran, I really had this
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 21: feeling that it was a part-time legislature.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 18: Yeah.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 21: That I'd be able to, okay, I'd be in Hartford
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 21: until 2 or 3 in the morning. But that's nothing
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 21: different than I haven't done my whole entire life.
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 20: Sure.
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 21: Business in Hartford is conducted Monday through Friday, you know,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 21: from 8, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. And folks with
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 21: regular jobs, it is a shock. Because I think all
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 21: of us that have always dedicated our time to, whether
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 21: it's a council. So for me, yeah, I miss boats.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 21: Is that hit piece correct? The no-show Joe, you know,
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 21: they came up with a line. Hey, you know what?
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 21: I'll eat that too. But in the end, if I
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 21: was on a golf course and I was missing a boat,
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 21: or if I was, like, at the beach or on
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 21: my boat, come after me. But I can tell you
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 21: unequivocally that last year we got so busy at my
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 21: job that, you know, EB was requiring me to be
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 21: at some of these meetings. And And listen, leadership and
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 21: I would be in very heavy communication about what bills
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 21: were coming up and what. And I'm not saying one
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 21: bill is more or less important. But the ones that
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 21: that really were, you know, the soup of the day ones,
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 21: I wanted to make sure I was up there and
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 21: I had my say on them. And that doesn't mean
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 21: to disregard anyone else's bill. They're all important. But in
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 21: the end, it's a part time legislature. And I made
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 21: the decision to leave. because I didn't feel like I
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 21: could do both well. I love the picture of the cigar.
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 21: I mean, I've got to admit, I'm a big, huge
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 21: cigar fan. I was in the cigar aficionado because I
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 21: built an igloo one day, and the picture made it.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 21: Me and my buddy are in it. So, you know,
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 21: we have a big rally tomorrow. You know, vote for Joe.
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 21: Get out and canvass and knock doors. And if you
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 21: bring that thing, I was not– I don't want to
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 21: sound like too funny, but I'm signing them for my
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 21: buddies that are bringing them up.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 28: They laugh.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 21: They call me. They're like, what, what is that, man?
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 21: That's not how you smoke a cigar. You know, you
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 21: get all those, those things. And it's, you know, it's
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 21: a hit piece. And, you know, and my, my, what
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 21: I sent out about her and anything you read that
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 21: I send out for my team is going to be
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 21: about boats that she took.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 31: Yeah.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 21: About things that she's, she's done. And, and really how,
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 21: you know, how she's kind of attached herself to, you know,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 21: I watched the interview and she basically said that we
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 21: should be following RFK down that rabbit hole that he's
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 21: going and that we should put a philosophical exemption allowing
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 21: people just to not take the vaccine if they want.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 21: And those are scary things. And I think, you know,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 21: a lot of my Democrat friends that have voted for
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 21: in the past, I'm trying to let them know that
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 21: that's kind of, that's a new policy and it's something
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 21: that they're probably not used to or surprised when they
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 21: hear it. But, you know, that's all fair. And listen,
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 21: I'm not saying it's wrong because we all have our
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 21: own opinions. My opinion varies from hers.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 20: Well, Joe, we are out of time. Thank you so much.
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 20: Where can they see you on any debate stage coming up?
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 20: What's going on?
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 21: There's only one.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 31: You know, there's only one.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 21: I wish in this, and I know we probably feel
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 21: the same way, your brothers, we should be talking a
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 21: lot more, a lot of dialogue. There's one on October 26th.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 21: It's only live stream, so don't worry about getting out
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 21: of your house. I wish it was live, but it's not.
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 21: And it is what it is. And October 26th is
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 21: actually seven days after voting starts. I'm encouraging people to
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 21: go to my website, look me up, call me directly.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 21: If you have any questions on how you want to vote,
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 21: because I do encourage people to vote on day one.
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 21: Because who knows what's going to happen on election day.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 21: You know, you could be sick. Your car could break down.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 21: Get it done. Get it out of the way. But
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 21: if you have a question, make sure you call me.
• 1:16:46

  Speaker 9: It's Hugh Hewitt here with Ken and Nick Tumalo, hosts
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 9: of Tumalo Financial Radio. Sunday's on 94.9. Guys, why do
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 9: taxes get overlooked in retirement planning?
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 38: Because the tax code's so complicated. You look at it,
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 38: the 401k is pre-tax money. The Roth is tax-free. Your
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 38: non-retirement accounts are capital gains, dividends, and interest. Your Social
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 38: Security's taxed by provisional income. I'm giving you all these
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 38: things and you're probably already confused. That's why you want
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 38: to build out that two-month retirement checkup to see short,
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 38: first long-term effects on these type of things. Because you
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 38: never know, you might have been saving well in those
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 38: 401ks and you might have a required minimum distribution issue
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 38: at 73 or 75, depending on year of birth.
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 11: So you really don't want.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 38: To look at it just on a one-year basis. Oh yeah,
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 38: I'm going to do a Roth conversion this year. It's
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 38: going to take care of everything. No, Planning takes year
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 38: over year on tax planning. You can't just do it
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 38: in one year.
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 60: One of the biggest things that we did find with
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 60: tax planning, especially for our listeners, was that it has
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 60: to be done over multiple years to actually gain an advantage.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 60: So it's not that simple where you just make one
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 60: change in one year. A lot of times it's the
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 60: planning piece of it. And when we do our two-month
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 60: financial retirement checkup, it actually looks like a big spreadsheet.
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 15: And it shows the numbers over a whole bunch of years.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 60: We like to go out 24, even 30 years at
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 60: times when we're projecting out. Because if we can pick
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 60: up on some of these tax things and then start
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 60: to implement strategies, then what we can do is put
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 60: in front of you, the listeners, we can put in
• 1:24:31
  Speaker 60: front of them where they would save money in taxes
• 1:24:33
  Speaker 60: and how much over time. So it starts with that

• 1:25:18
  Speaker 14: we can always be about our UConn football program is honest.
• 1:25:23
  Speaker 15: There have been some down times and some good times, too.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 15: Some have gone on to the NFL.
• 1:25:28
  Speaker 14: Others haven't. But what Aaron Garland and Carlton Steer just did,
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 14: is so much bigger than anything football related. Garland and Steer,
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 14: who met while playing football in stores, just traveled to
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 14: Sierra Leone in Africa where they built a school there
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 14: for kids that didn't have one.
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you heard right, an entire school.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 15: They found the land, they got the materials.
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 14: They built it themselves, and even helped hire the four
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 14: teachers that are there teaching their 78 students at the
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 14: Steer International Academy. I don't say this too often, but
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 14: some things in life are bigger than football, and this
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 14: is certainly one of them. With more than just a score,

  Speaker 20: Good morning to you, and thank you again for joining

  Speaker 20: But soon enough, that'll be back when the Voice of

  Speaker 20: Freedom returns, and you can get back to the normal
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 20: scheduled time for you.
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 31: Well, I enjoy Fridays with Steve, so thank you for
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 31: asking me on.
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 20: All good, all good. I don't even want to go
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 20: into the Yankees. We can save that to the end.
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 20: You and I are both on that same page, but
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 20: let's just start with with what we talked about a
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 20: little bit off air on these new polls that just
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 20: came out today.
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 31: Yeah, this is the new, just released Pew poll, highly respected,
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 31: nonpartisan poll by the Pew Center.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 31: And Trump's approval is down now at 30% nationally, 68% disapproval,
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 31: 30% approved. That's the lowest approval. He was once at
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 31: 30 right after the January 6th fiasco. And here we
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 31: are again after a year and a half. This guy
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 31: single-handedly has driven himself into the ditch and taking the
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 31: Republican Party with him. And then the other part of
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 31: the poll that's fascinating is he got a lot of
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 31: people to vote for him in 2024. And in this poll,
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 31: only 67% of those Trump voters voted. now approve of
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 31: how he is doing as president. It used to be 90%.
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 31: This summer it was 75% in July. And so in
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 31: two months it's dropped another eight points to 67%. And
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 31: that's not good for any Republican running this year anywhere
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 31: in the country because the Republican turnout is going to
• 1:30:49
  Speaker 31: be down. They're going to be depressed. Someone's called it
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 31: a red undertow.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 42: Yeah.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 31: That along with a high blue or Democratic turnout, there's
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 31: a depressed Republican turnout.
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 9: Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 20: And, you know, and like you said, like he's his
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 20: own worst enemy. I mean, saying things even recently, like
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 20: let him attack, you know, L.A., you know, like these things.
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 20: These things hurt real people. Even if you're a Republican
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 20: and you're out there, statements like that, you know, in L.A.,
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 20: of course, there's military. In L.A., of course, there's women, children, police.
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 20: There's humans, right? So it's a complete disregard for everything.
• 1:31:32
  Speaker 20: And as you said there, you know, he's his own
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 20: worst enemy. He just keeps saying these things. You know, John,
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 20: I don't know. Like I said, I don't know what
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 20: to say either. Like, where's the line for the folks?
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 20: At what point do you say, oh, my God, enough
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 20: is enough?
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 31: Well, you say it on November 3rd. That's what's going
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 31: to happen. And the Republicans are going to have a
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 31: bad election this time. And it's Trump. I mean, the
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 31: Republicans have had to follow Trump. Any Republican who stood
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 31: up to Trump got wiped out. previously in primaries or
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 31: just Trump made sure the donors didn't give him any money,
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 31: ran a primary against him, the whole thing. So it's
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 31: his party, it's the Trump party, and it's Trump in
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 31: every issue. So he put the tariffs on, he started
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 31: the war, he rounded up all the people on the
• 1:32:30
  Speaker 31: streets that he said he wasn't going to round up.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 31: It was supposed to be the worst of the worst,
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 31: not Maria the maid from next door. And he's just
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 31: gone too far. And that's why this election will be Democrat.
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 31: Not that the people are voting for the Democrats. No,
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 31: they're voting against Trump. And even though he's running around
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 31: now saying, well, just pretend I'm on the ballot.
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 35: Okay, great.
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 31: They don't have to pretend. His acolytes are on the ballot,
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 31: and the people are going to vote against him.
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 18: Yeah.
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 1: You know....
• 1:33:07
  Speaker 20: Do you see Trump or his team, do you see
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 20: them working actively to undermine this election? Do you feel that?
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 20: Is that happening? You know, there's so many rumors going
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 20: on with all of this. I mean, is this something
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 20: that you're feeling or you're seeing in any way, shape,
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 20: or form?
• 1:33:28
  Speaker 31: Not really. I mean, I know that they've talked about it.
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 31: I'm sure they're going to do some shenanigans with ICE.
• 1:33:33
  Speaker 40: Okay.
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 31: Putting people at the polls and stuff, and Democrats are
• 1:33:38
  Speaker 31: ready with a team of lawyers to go to the courts.
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 31: You can't have law enforcement inside polling places. They could
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 31: be outside. I guess that's the point. I just think
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 31: this election, what it feels like to me, is going
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 31: to be so overwhelmingly anti-Trump. that some ICE agents running
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 31: around aren't going to make a difference.
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 20: Okay.
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 31: I also don't think the inevitable, ah, it was rigged,
• 1:34:06
  Speaker 31: all that nonsense from Trump. Our elections are not rigged.
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 31: Our elections are the best in the world. Our counting
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 31: of the votes is the best in the world. Yeah,
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 31: it's frustrating sometimes because some states do it differently than others. Florida,
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 31: after the debacle of 2000, the hanging chads and all that.
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 31: They spent a lot of money. They modernized their system.
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 31: And they count every vote, including absentees and mail-in votes,
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 31: all that, the day of the election. So on election night,
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 31: you get the final tally. You don't get that here
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 31: in New York. The votes keep coming in. They don't
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 31: count them until Friday after the Tuesday election. And it's
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 31: an antiquated system. But it's not crooked. And both parties
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 31: together monitor what goes on in these states. And yet
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 31: Trump's running around, oh, it's all rigged.
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 20: Well, that's an important point about the monitoring.
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 31: He's the one that tried to rig it, you know,
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 31: when he called up Brad Raffensperger and said, I need 11,000 votes.
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 25: Yeah.
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 40: Yeah.
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 20: Yeah, I mean, but that's a great point. I mean,
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 20: these elections, you know, on some of the narratives that
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 20: you might hear from Republicans, you would think that only
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 20: Democrats are in the polling booths and just running the
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 20: entire election. And it's both sides, right? That's how it works, right?
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 20: There are representatives in each of these, and then it
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 20: gets approved at the end. Is this the process? I mean, right?
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 31: Well, here in New York, when you go into your
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 31: polling place, There are equal numbers of Republican and Democratic
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 31: workers at the tables with the books to sign you in.
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 7: Okay.
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 31: Then you go take your ballot, go to the machine,
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 31: put it in.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 62: There is a.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 31: Paper ballot now. No more of the flipping of the
• 1:35:57
  Speaker 31: switches in there. Now you mark the ballot manually with
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 31: a pen, and then you go to the machine and
• 1:36:04
  Speaker 31: feed it into the machine. So there is a copy.
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 31: That paper copy is sitting in that machine. At the
• 1:36:11
  Speaker 31: end of the day... When they open every machine in
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 31: the state, there is a Republican and a Democrat doing
• 1:36:18
  Speaker 31: it together, watching it together, writing down the numbers together,
• 1:36:22
  Speaker 31: sending it to wherever it goes, Mineola here in Nassau County.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 31: This is all done by the two parties to make
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 31: sure there isn't any fraud. And I'm so tired of
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 31: unknowledgeable people telling me these things are fraudulent. Well, they're not.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 18: Yeah.
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 20: And that scenario, I know it's just New York City,
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 20: but that is the basic of all the states, right?
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 20: I'm on Long Island, not New York City. I mean,
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 20: Long Island. The whole state.
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 31: The whole state does it this way. Right.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 20: And most states do it this way. Yeah, yeah, right.
• 1:36:54
  Speaker 20: It's not like you're going to go to one state
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 20: and it's just going to be one party in there.
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 20: It's still going to have that representation across, correct?
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 31: Correct. When people say things are rigged, I'll tell you
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 31: what is rigged politically. Not so much here in New York.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 31: I'm not sure about Connecticut, but a lot of states
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 31: only have two parties on the ballot. And so if
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 31: you're a Ross Perot or if you're, you know, whoever,
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 31: you want to run for office, not as a Republican
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 31: or Democrat, to get on the ballot is very difficult.
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 31: And the two parties have conspired to keep third candidates
• 1:37:32
  Speaker 31: off the ballot and enacted petition rules that are really
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 31: hard to meet. You have to get a certain number
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 31: of signatures to get on the ballot, and then they
• 1:37:43
  Speaker 31: take you to court to challenge the signatures. I mean,
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 31: it's a daunting task. That's rigged, okay? That's the two
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 31: parties rigging it to keep you out, you, the third-party candidate,
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 31: or whatever. But other than that, the actual counting of
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 31: the votes and all that, it's not rigged. It's good.
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 31: It's honest. You can have faith in it.
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 20: How about the redrawing of the maps and that? What
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 20: do you feel? Does that rig it?
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 31: Well, I think it ends up in a state that
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 31: you're going to laugh. I think that legally rigs it.
• 1:38:15
  Speaker 20: Legally, actually.
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 31: Legally, yeah, because it's always been that the winning party
• 1:38:20
  Speaker 31: controls the legislature. And let's just say you take a
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 31: state where the governor and both legislative bodies are all
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 31: of the same party.
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 28: Okay.
• 1:38:33
  Speaker 31: Well, what do you think they're going to do? They're
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 31: going to draw the lines for state representative Congress favorable
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 31: to their party. Of course they are. That's the way
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 31: the system was set up.
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 42: Yeah.
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 31: And I've never really had a problem with it. I
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 31: don't like, didn't like what Trump did last year with
• 1:38:50
  Speaker 31: the mid-decade redistricting. Because the Constitution says we redistrict after
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 31: the census every 10 years. And that's what we always did.
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 31: Now he wants to, he redid it last year, thought
• 1:39:06
  Speaker 31: he got himself more seats. And we'll find out after
• 1:39:11
  Speaker 31: November 3rd, but it could be that he's going to
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 31: lose some seats because of that, because he took red
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 31: voters out of solid red states in Texas, red districts,
• 1:39:21
  Speaker 31: I mean, and moved them into other districts to make
• 1:39:24
  Speaker 31: them red. And what he did is he watered down
• 1:39:27
  Speaker 31: the red votes in each district. If there's a blue wave,
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 31: which it looks like there will be, that may sweep
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 31: out some of those– Republican seats.
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 30: Right.
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 20: And the Democrats answered with their own shenanigans with that, correct?
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 20: I mean, they did.
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 1:39:46
  Speaker 31: But in all fairness, in all fairness, they didn't start it.
• 1:39:50
  Speaker 31: They didn't want to do it.
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 3: OK.
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 31: But they weren't going to sit by idly while Trump
• 1:39:55
  Speaker 31: just went willy nilly.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 42: Right.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 31: All over the South. You know, he tried it in Georgia.
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 42: Yeah.
• 1:40:01
  Speaker 31: Tennessee, Missouri, Utah, everywhere. And the Democrats said, screw this.
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 60: We're not.
• 1:40:07
  Speaker 31: And so they did California. They're going to pick up
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 31: some blue seats in California. And they picked up a
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 31: couple others. It's going to end up being a wash,
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 31: I think. It won't be a big factor.
• 1:40:21
  Speaker 21: I think.
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 31: But we don't know. If it's a close election for
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 31: the Congress, it could come down to one seat.
• 1:40:28
  Speaker 30: Right, right.
• 1:40:29
  Speaker 20: Well, we have a caller here, John. Would you like
• 1:40:31
  Speaker 20: to take a caller?
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 8: Maybe.
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 20: Hi, John.
• 1:40:34
  Speaker 25: This is Annie. Why is it that almost every single
• 1:40:37
  Speaker 25: time you hear of a ballot conspiracy, vote dump, late-night
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 25: explosions of voting, ballot stuffing, nursing home ballots being filled
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 25: out for Democrats, illegals voting, it never seems to be
• 1:40:50
  Speaker 25: the Republicans who are bending the rules. Oh, am I wrong?
• 1:40:54
  Speaker 20: All right, I didn't realize.
• 1:40:58
  Speaker 11: Well, actually, that's a.
• 1:40:59
  Speaker 31: Great question, but in fact, of.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 31: In 2024, of cases of election fraud that were prosecuted
• 1:41:13
  Speaker 31: in this country, almost everyone— and there were like seven of them,
• 1:41:17
  Speaker 31: seven out of 150 million people.
• 1:41:20
  Speaker 20: Okay.
• 1:41:22
  Speaker 31: I think like five of them voted for Trump. So,
• 1:41:26
  Speaker 31: I mean, there is no election fraud. It's all just
• 1:41:30
  Speaker 31: BS from Trump.
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 20: Yeah, it's—you know, that's— I feel that that's his his
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 20: narrative to, you know, if he doesn't get the results
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 20: he wants to use to pull some other shenanigans after
• 1:41:47
  Speaker 20: the fact. That's just that's just me thinking and kind
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 20: of like looking looking forward of why you would continuously undermine.
• 1:41:54
  Speaker 11: Like what?
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 20: Why would he continuously undermine our elections, which you have
• 1:41:58
  Speaker 20: said many times are very fair? And as we just discussed,
• 1:42:03
  Speaker 20: represented on both sides of the aisle every single time.
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 20: Why continuously degrade this– the institution of our election system
• 1:42:13
  Speaker 20: to the point where nobody believes in him? Why do it?
• 1:42:17
  Speaker 31: Well, I think he does it because he wants to
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 31: destroy every institution that in any way could restrain him
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 31: so that he can be the guy. I mean, go
• 1:42:27
  Speaker 31: back to 2016, the convention. when he first got nominated
• 1:42:31
  Speaker 31: to run. Of course, he would go on to win,
• 1:42:33
  Speaker 31: but it was the summer of 2016 when he comes
• 1:42:37
  Speaker 31: out in his silhouette on the stage, this hero riding
• 1:42:40
  Speaker 31: to the rescue, and I alone can fix it. Only
• 1:42:46
  Speaker 31: I can fix all these problems. I know more about
• 1:42:49
  Speaker 31: the military than the generals. I know more about Europe
• 1:42:54
  Speaker 31: than the Europeans. I mean, I have just this constant nonsense.
• 1:42:58
  Speaker 31: A guy that actually doesn't know much about anything. He's
• 1:43:02
  Speaker 31: a BS artist. And we've all gone to school with
• 1:43:04
  Speaker 31: guys like this. They string a lot of words together,
• 1:43:08
  Speaker 31: sound like they're knowledgeable. And then when you spend some
• 1:43:12
  Speaker 31: time with them, you realize it's all a front. They're
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 31: a mess behind the mask.
• 1:43:18
  Speaker 20: And that's Trump.
• 1:43:19
  Speaker 31: It has taken this country 10 years to figure out
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 31: what I knew 40 years ago. The guy's a fraud.
• 1:43:28
  Speaker 31: And he lies and makes it up every second. Ah,
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 31: the war will be over in a week, and we're
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 31: going to stop the nuclear program, and we're going to
• 1:43:38
  Speaker 31: get the Strait of Hormuzo. In fact, I'm going to
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 31: rename it the Strait of Trump. Who's ever heard of
• 1:43:42
  Speaker 31: such a thing? And here we are seven months later,
• 1:43:45
  Speaker 31: and he's gearing up to go back and bomb the
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 31: hell out of them again, even though we're running out
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 31: of ammunition. All our bases in the Middle East have
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 31: been hit by the Iranians, not reportedly. heavily because they
• 1:43:57
  Speaker 31: won't let the media see the bases.
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 5: Right, right.
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 31: This thing's a fiasco because Trump is a fiasco. He's
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 31: a terrible leader.
• 1:44:07
  Speaker 20: Yeah. And still in all this seven months, our allies
• 1:44:12
  Speaker 20: have not jumped in to help us in any way, right? No.
• 1:44:15
  Speaker 31: Well, other than Israel, which might even have started the thing,
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 31: but is a good ally of ours. Yeah. Yeah. No
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 31: one wants any part of this thing. You know why?
• 1:44:25
  Speaker 31: Because their populaces don't want any part of it. The
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 31: French talked about helping to clear the Strait of Hormuz.
• 1:44:33
  Speaker 31: I don't know if they're doing anything, but the French
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 31: don't want it. The English don't want it. The Germans
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 31: don't want it. The whole thing. Even the Arab countries
• 1:44:43
  Speaker 31: that are our allies, the Gulf states, they don't want
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 31: this war. And yet Trump said, I know more than anybody.
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 31: I'm going to do it.
• 1:44:53
  Speaker 20: Well, what's his off-ramp? I mean, we have an election
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 20: coming up. I mean, we're still in this war. Gas
• 1:44:58
  Speaker 20: prices are still high. I mean, $ 4. 39 today for me.
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 20: What's his off-ramp? Does he even have one?
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 31: Well, he may have a cosmetic one. I don't rule
• 1:45:10
  Speaker 31: out in the next week, with three weeks to go,
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 31: I could see Trump pulling an announcement saying, that the
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 31: war's over and that he's made a deal with the Iranians. Now,
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 31: he already made one, and both sides didn't live up
• 1:45:27
  Speaker 31: to it. That was the memorandum of understanding. I could
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 31: see this talk about him bombing again. That may be
• 1:45:35
  Speaker 31: to push the Iranians a little bit to agree to something,
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 31: and maybe they'll make an announcement next week with three
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 31: weeks before the election. We've settled the war, and I'm
• 1:45:45
  Speaker 31: bringing another couple shifts home. It could be something like that.
• 1:45:49
  Speaker 31: I wouldn't believe a word of it. It would be
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 31: done strictly for the campaign. And Trump changes his opinion
• 1:45:58
  Speaker 31: every five minutes. I don't think there's an off-ramp until
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 31: after the election. If the election's bad for Trump, then
• 1:46:08
  Speaker 31: everything we've talked about and more will be totally different,
• 1:46:13
  Speaker 31: including his presidency will be on the deep downslope from
• 1:46:18
  Speaker 31: November 4th on Yeah.
• 1:46:20
  Speaker 20: I mean, if the Democrats take the House and Senate,
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 20: I mean, litigation and so much more is in Trump's future.
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 20: I mean, that's just what it is.
• 1:46:34
  Speaker 31: Well, Steve, there's that, and that's big. But there's even,
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 31: in my view, a bigger thing, which is up till
• 1:46:42
  Speaker 31: this November, Trump has been the president in this term
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 31: for almost two years. And This is the first time
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 31: nationally that people get to tell him what they think
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 31: of him. And so, yeah, it'll be by electing a
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 31: House and Senate, the other party. But it's a bigger thing.
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 31: We're saying we don't want what you're doing. We don't
• 1:47:08
  Speaker 31: want all this stuff. And he then needs to either
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 31: acknowledge it. Because you need to govern with the consent
• 1:47:19
  Speaker 31: of the governed. And he's going to be getting the non-consent,
• 1:47:24
  Speaker 31: the opposite. They're telling him, we don't consent to this.
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 31: And we're expressing it by voting on November 3rd and
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 31: leading up to it in the early voting. It's happening
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 31: right now. The early numbers on mail-in ballots being passed.
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 31: requested and sent yeah democrats are way ahead of republicans
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 31: nationally you know already in a couple of million votes
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 31: have been cast you don't know who they vote for
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 31: but you know who is voting and more democrats are
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 31: voting than republicans all right.

  Speaker 7: I'm Dave Anthony, Fox News.
• 1:50:05
  Speaker 45: A man here illegally who was shot in New York
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 45: City during an ICE enforcement operation, then sent to a
• 1:50:10
  Speaker 45: hospital where there was a big protest.
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 44: Today's shooting is only further devastating confirmation of what we
• 1:50:16
  Speaker 44: have long known, which is that ICE operates with impunity,
• 1:50:19
  Speaker 44: that they sow chaos and terror across our country.
• 1:50:22
  Speaker 45: Democratic Socialist New York Mayor Zoran Nandani.
• 1:50:25
  Speaker 46: ICE has not revealed exactly what led to the shooting,
• 1:50:27
  Speaker 46: saying only that during the incident an officer discharged his weapon.
• 1:50:32
  Speaker 46: And in a statement, DHS says the injured man has
• 1:50:34
  Speaker 46: ties to the violent Trinitarios gang and that he has
• 1:50:38
  Speaker 46: a prior grand larceny conviction and a history of other arrests.
• 1:50:41
  Speaker 46: DHS adding this quote, this criminal illegal alien was arrested
• 1:50:44
  Speaker 46: by the NYPD on December 7th, 2023, but was released
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 46: into the community a few days later by reckless Democrat
• 1:50:51
  Speaker 46: sanctuary policies that put American lives at risk.
• 1:50:54
  Speaker 45: That's Fox's Chandler Painter. There is also a backlash to
• 1:50:57
  Speaker 45: what the Pentagon is planning. To live stream Nidal Hassan's
• 1:51:01
  Speaker 45: execution December 3rd at Fort Hood in Texas, where the
• 1:51:04
  Speaker 45: former Army major went on the attack in 2009, murdering
• 1:51:07
  Speaker 45: 13 people and wounding 32.
• 1:51:09
  Speaker 7: Fox's Alicia Cunha reports.
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 58: This would make the Fort Hood shooter the first person
• 1:51:14
  Speaker 58: executed by military firing squad since 1945. It's an unprecedented
• 1:51:19
  Speaker 58: decision as executions have never been televised in the United States.
• 1:51:23
  Speaker 7: Democrats oppose it.
• 1:51:24
  Speaker 45: The ranking member of the House Armed Services Committee, Adam Smith,
• 1:51:26
  Speaker 45: calls it disturbing and a mockery. Senator Chris Murphy says
• 1:51:29
  Speaker 45: the public execution is disgusting. Hurricane Isaias, Category 2, keeps

• 1:59:07
  Speaker 20: little jamming in the studio. And I am here with
• 1:59:11
  Speaker 20: my friends. Casey O'Neill of the Day Paper. Casey, what's happening?
• 1:59:15
  Speaker 36: Hi, Steve.
• 1:59:16
  Speaker 11: How are we doing this morning? That was good.
• 1:59:17
  Speaker 61: We were dancing a little bit there. Listen, there's nothing
• 1:59:21
  Speaker 61: that gets you up out of your seat. And the kids,
• 1:59:25
  Speaker 61: they all love the techno. They all love the EDM.
• 1:59:26
  Speaker 11: We've got that.
• 1:59:28
  Speaker 20: That's our new thing, and we have a good time
• 1:59:30
  Speaker 20: with that. You know, what's happening? I know you got
• 1:59:34
  Speaker 20: a game day tonight, right? Tell us about that.
• 1:59:37
  Speaker 5: We do.
• 1:59:37
  Speaker 61: So we are at Montville High School tonight, Stonington versus Montville.
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 61: And the question everyone's asking is, why aren't you doing
• 1:59:44
  Speaker 61: New London and Fitch? And I will say that the
• 1:59:48
  Speaker 61: short answer to that is because... We're doing New London
• 1:59:50
  Speaker 61: four times. So, you know, when we have when you
• 1:59:52
  Speaker 61: have a 12 game schedule, you know, it's really hard.
• 1:59:55
  Speaker 61: But it is no story has captivated the ECC, the
• 2:00:01
  Speaker 61: eastern half of the state, like Jack Cochran's return to
• 2:00:03
  Speaker 61: New London, like the success that they have had. So
• 2:00:06
  Speaker 61: it's all anybody wants to talk about. Everyone wants to know,
• 2:00:09
  Speaker 61: you know. What's going on with New London? What do
• 2:00:11
  Speaker 61: you think about New London? What do you think about Jack?
• 2:00:14
  Speaker 61: But we will be at Montville High School tonight, Montville
• 2:00:17
  Speaker 61: and Stonington, in our continued effort to showcase as many
• 2:00:21
  Speaker 61: different schools as possible.
• 2:00:25
  Speaker 11: We choose the schools to.
• 2:00:26
  Speaker 61: Get as many as we can, and then as we
• 2:00:28
  Speaker 61: head toward the end of October into November— We start
• 2:00:32
  Speaker 61: to try to— so, you know, we will be doing New
• 2:00:35
  Speaker 61: London and Ledger. We will be doing New London and Waterford.
• 2:00:37
  Speaker 61: We will be doing New London and NFA. But up
• 2:00:40
  Speaker 61: until those games, it's like, let's take our opportunity to
• 2:00:43
  Speaker 61: get as many schools as possible. So that's—you know, give
• 2:00:45
  Speaker 61: a little shine to Montville and Stonington tonight.
• 2:00:47
  Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah.
• 2:00:48
  Speaker 20: No, and, you know, listen, I heard recently, too. I mean,
• 2:00:51
  Speaker 20: you guys are doing all this, but I heard recently
• 2:00:53
  Speaker 20: the day had a flooding in it. You know, and
• 2:00:59
  Speaker 20: I worked down in New London myself. So when I
• 2:01:01
  Speaker 20: heard that and I saw wet floors everywhere and nobody
• 2:01:03
  Speaker 20: could be in there, I mean, tell us what happened.
• 2:01:05
  Speaker 61: Well, the new building has apartments being constructed above them. And,
• 2:01:12
  Speaker 61: you know, when you're doing construction above, sometimes it affects
• 2:01:16
  Speaker 61: the first floor, which is now us. And we had
• 2:01:20
  Speaker 61: all that rain. and something happened where somebody zigged when
• 2:01:26
  Speaker 61: they should have zagged, and we had a little rainforest
• 2:01:29
  Speaker 61: cafe going on in our building for a couple days.
• 2:01:32
  Speaker 61: Good news is that we are nothing if not resilient,
• 2:01:36
  Speaker 61: and all of our go-with-the-flow nature has been it. This
• 2:01:43
  Speaker 61: is not a pat on the back by any stretch,
• 2:01:46
  Speaker 61: but I really do give an enormous amount of credit
• 2:01:50
  Speaker 61: to the people who show up every day in that building,
• 2:01:53
  Speaker 61: and then we're told, like, yeah, you got to keep going, right?
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 11: The paper can't stop.
• 2:01:56
  Speaker 61: It's not like we can tell John Penny, like, no,
• 2:01:59
  Speaker 61: you don't have to write a story because... because we
• 2:02:02
  Speaker 61: don't have good conditions right now. So we all bounced
• 2:02:05
  Speaker 61: around and did our thing, and we're back in business.
• 2:02:08
  Speaker 20: So it's back in business. Because I know you guys
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 20: have debates coming up, right? Yes. And that's going to
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 20: be in the studio that was flooded, correct?
• 2:02:16
  Speaker 61: So the studio, fortunately, was one of the least affected rooms.
• 2:02:23
  Speaker 61: And the reason for that is it already had a leak.
• 2:02:27
  Speaker 61: So they had already kind of addressed it.
• 2:02:28
  Speaker 20: I see.
• 2:02:29
  Speaker 61: So it didn't get really that affected. So the studio
• 2:02:31
  Speaker 61: was mostly affected. One corner panel, not a big deal. So, yes,
• 2:02:37
  Speaker 61: the debates will be in the studio. We're back doing
• 2:02:39
  Speaker 61: content in the studio.
• 2:02:40
  Speaker 20: Tell us about those. I mean, are you going to
• 2:02:42
  Speaker 20: be part of the debates? And what type of format
• 2:02:46
  Speaker 20: are they going to have? I mean, this is people,
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 20: you know, the day now with their game day has,
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 20: you know, made a name for themselves with some video
• 2:02:54
  Speaker 20: and some content. So this is, you know, new. And
• 2:02:57
  Speaker 20: I think this is going to be big. So how
• 2:02:59
  Speaker 20: is it going to be broadcast? How are you marketing it?
• 2:03:01
  Speaker 20: What are we going to see here?
• 2:03:03
  Speaker 61: That's a great question and one that I am ill-equipped
• 2:03:06
  Speaker 61: to answer, but I'll.
• 2:03:07
  Speaker 11: Tell you what I do know.
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 61: The studio is going to be set up so that
• 2:03:11
  Speaker 61: both candidates are on screen, on camera. There will be,
• 2:03:16
  Speaker 61: I believe, multiple people asking questions. So it won't be
• 2:03:20
  Speaker 61: just one moderator. It'll be multiple people. Each candidate will
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 61: have their opportunity, the equal time on the air for
• 2:03:26
  Speaker 61: their answers. And the debate will occur right there in
• 2:03:28
  Speaker 61: the studios. Now, the studio is not huge. I mean,
• 2:03:31
  Speaker 61: it's not a mega palace like this one.
• 2:03:32
  Speaker 11: No, I've seen it.
• 2:03:34
  Speaker 20: It's nice, though.
• 2:03:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is.
• 2:03:35
  Speaker 61: So there is a limit to how many people you're
• 2:03:38
  Speaker 61: going to get in there. So I think the two candidates,
• 2:03:40
  Speaker 61: I think the two moderators, if you will. Are you
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 61: a moderator?
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 5: I'm not.
• 2:03:45
  Speaker 35: I am a.
• 2:03:47
  Speaker 61: I think they're going to use the newsroom for that,
• 2:03:50
  Speaker 61: which I'm completely– I think that's what they should be doing.
• 2:03:55
  Speaker 11: And I'm assuming that the great Peter Wapie will be
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 11: the producer of it, the tech guy. But they're looking
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 11: forward to it.
• 2:04:03
  Speaker 61: I'm just getting some of the news about it in
• 2:04:06
  Speaker 61: the past couple of days. I want to be– I
• 2:04:09
  Speaker 61: actually want to be in the building.
• 2:04:10
  Speaker 21: Yeah.
• 2:04:11
  Speaker 11: When they're going on.
• 2:04:11
  Speaker 20: I think it's going to be a lot. So, so is,
• 2:04:13
  Speaker 20: is that get broadcast live on the website? Like how,
• 2:04:17
  Speaker 20: how does I, how do I see, is it just
• 2:04:19
  Speaker 20: social media?
• 2:04:20
  Speaker 11: How does this work?
• 2:04:20
  Speaker 61: So, you know, the, the day.com generally provides you with
• 2:04:25
  Speaker 61: the link to, uh, the videos, but all of the days,
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 61: so the day has social media, all of the social
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 61: media channels will have it.
• 2:04:33
  Speaker 11: And the day has a YouTube channel.
• 2:04:34
  Speaker 61: So you're going to, you know, the modern, uh, just
• 2:04:37
  Speaker 61: like game day goes up on, YouTube. And if you
• 2:04:41
  Speaker 61: have Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, you can watch it there as well. Similarly,
• 2:04:47
  Speaker 61: that's how we live stream things. So I'm going to
• 2:04:51
  Speaker 61: assume there's going to be a big link on theday.com,
• 2:04:53
  Speaker 61: which will take you to the YouTube channel and you
• 2:04:55
  Speaker 61: can probably watch it live.
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 20: Watch it live on YouTube.
• 2:04:57
  Speaker 5: So that's how it works.
• 2:04:57
  Speaker 20: It's not going to be like just scrolling live on
• 2:04:59
  Speaker 20: the website.
• 2:05:00
  Speaker 11: It'll be a link. That's what you think.
• 2:05:01
  Speaker 61: My understanding is that it'll be a link and you'll
• 2:05:03
  Speaker 61: be able to watch it live, which is, I mean,
• 2:05:06
  Speaker 61: I don't think anybody wants to watch a debate format
• 2:05:09
  Speaker 61: that's not instant, right?
• 2:05:11
  Speaker 11: They want to be.
• 2:05:11
  Speaker 20: Able to be in the moment.
• 2:05:13
  Speaker 11: What I don't know.
• 2:05:15
  Speaker 61: Is if the public's going to have the ability to
• 2:05:20
  Speaker 61: throw comments in or questions in, or if it's just
• 2:05:23
  Speaker 61: going to be a broadcast out.
• 2:05:26
  Speaker 11: I don't know those details.
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 61: And I don't know, I think they're probably still resolving
• 2:05:32
  Speaker 61: a lot of that as well, because I think the
• 2:05:33
  Speaker 61: candidates have.
• 2:05:35
  Speaker 11: Say in the form.
• 2:05:36
  Speaker 20: Yeah, yeah, I think they do. And I know, you know,
• 2:05:40
  Speaker 20: the voice of freedom will be on there and many others.
• 2:05:43
  Speaker 20: And I you know, it's going to be it's a
• 2:05:45
  Speaker 20: it's a great, I think, newfangled way for the day
• 2:05:49
  Speaker 20: to kind of step into this to this arena. Um,
• 2:05:52
  Speaker 20: and I, and I'm, I'm looking forward to seeing how
• 2:05:54
  Speaker 20: it looks. I mean, you know, I listen, I've been
• 2:05:56
  Speaker 20: in the studio.
• 2:05:57
  Speaker 37: Yeah.
• 2:05:57
  Speaker 20: It isn't, it isn't the studio that you like, you know,
• 2:06:00
  Speaker 20: are you going to have a backdrop?
• 2:06:01
  Speaker 2: Are you going to have like, you.
• 2:06:02
  Speaker 20: Know, tell us.
• 2:06:03
  Speaker 10: Okay.
• 2:06:03
  Speaker 20: So, so it is going to be decorated.
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 40: Yeah.
• 2:06:05
  Speaker 11: Yeah.
• 2:06:06
  Speaker 20: To theme.
• 2:06:06
  Speaker 37: Yeah.
• 2:06:07
  Speaker 61: Um, I mean, so the studio has a green screen, uh,
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 61: which could be in, could be employed. It also has
• 2:06:13
  Speaker 61: a dropdown with the day logo and stuff on it. So,
• 2:06:15
  Speaker 61: I mean, some, it'll, there will be some form of, uh,
• 2:06:20
  Speaker 61: set up a setting, if you will. If you're somebody
• 2:06:24
  Speaker 61: out there who is on social media and you follow
• 2:06:27
  Speaker 61: the day, you will have seen that the day is
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 61: making a concerted effort to become video-driven as well. It's
• 2:06:36
  Speaker 61: more than just You know, you can always pick up
• 2:06:39
  Speaker 61: the hard copy newspaper. You can always go online and
• 2:06:42
  Speaker 61: read it at the day dot com. But it's got
• 2:06:44
  Speaker 61: to be more than just articles in print.
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 40: Right.
• 2:06:46
  Speaker 11: And pictures. There's got to be video.
• 2:06:47
  Speaker 61: And they're doing a much better job now of getting video,
• 2:06:51
  Speaker 61: both content and like little vignettes and things about about
• 2:06:55
  Speaker 61: the actual reporters, like the meet the meet the reporters
• 2:06:58
  Speaker 61: of the day, which is really great because I think that's.
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 37: Yeah.
• 2:07:01
  Speaker 11: Everyone has sort of their favorite person that they they
• 2:07:03
  Speaker 11: like to read.
• 2:07:04
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 2:07:05
  Speaker 11: And, you know, you get to know these people.
• 2:07:06
  Speaker 61: So, yeah, I actually do really think that the day
• 2:07:10
  Speaker 61: is is heading in a great direction in terms of
• 2:07:14
  Speaker 61: how its content is getting out to the.
• 2:07:16
  Speaker 20: It's it's resembling more of a news station than than
• 2:07:20
  Speaker 20: a than a print station. facility, right? I mean, this
• 2:07:24
  Speaker 20: is the evolution, right? And you and I have been
• 2:07:26
  Speaker 20: part of this evolution for quite some time. For a
• 2:07:29
  Speaker 20: long time. We have our history with that, but I mean,
• 2:07:33
  Speaker 20: it's finally actually starting to happen, right?
• 2:07:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:07:38
  Speaker 61: I can say with 100% certainty that the people in
• 2:07:43
  Speaker 61: control of the day are committed to evolving and committed.
• 2:07:50
  Speaker 11: To Walking what is a– here's the difficult line.
• 2:07:55
  Speaker 61: The day as the last independent newspaper in the state
• 2:07:59
  Speaker 61: and as a– a small business community partner has a
• 2:08:02
  Speaker 61: set of ethics that it needs to to uphold it
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 61: is still at the end of the day a journalism
• 2:08:08
  Speaker 61: driven it's you know it's a it's a it's a
• 2:08:10
  Speaker 61: media and it takes its standards very very seriously right
• 2:08:14
  Speaker 61: when you start getting into The immediacy of video, the
• 2:08:19
  Speaker 61: immediacy of who's– it used to be who got the
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 61: story right.
• 2:08:23
  Speaker 11: Then it became who got the story first.
• 2:08:25
  Speaker 37: Yeah.
• 2:08:26
  Speaker 61: Even if they got the story wrong. And so the
• 2:08:29
  Speaker 61: day is still holding on to, no, we're going to
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 61: get it right rather than be first. But they want
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 61: to try to get how you absorb the information into
• 2:08:39
  Speaker 61: a more modern format. So people– they want to see
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 61: as much as they want to read. Actually, they want
• 2:08:45
  Speaker 61: to see more than they want to read.
• 2:08:47
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I would argue that.
• 2:08:49
  Speaker 61: So they're making that transition to where I think you're
• 2:08:52
  Speaker 61: going to see more and more. So Game Day was
• 2:08:55
  Speaker 61: really the first product of the day that was entirely visual,
• 2:08:59
  Speaker 61: entirely digital. You're going to see more and more stuff
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 61: on the social media, more and more stuff on YouTube,
• 2:09:07
  Speaker 61: more and more stuff on theday.com. They are undergoing, there's
• 2:09:10
  Speaker 61: going to be a new Web design, new website, which
• 2:09:13
  Speaker 61: is going to make it a more– They need an app.
• 2:09:16
  Speaker 20: And they need a user-friendly app for people to upload content,
• 2:09:20
  Speaker 20: meaning I see something now, I put it up now,
• 2:09:24
  Speaker 20: and there it is.
• 2:09:25
  Speaker 61: So I've been advocating that actually as well.
• 2:09:27
  Speaker 11: That will come. The first thing– And it's a surprise.
• 2:09:30
  Speaker 20: I'm just going to be honest. Everything has an app.
• 2:09:32
  Speaker 20: So to realize that today a journalism, a story-driven community
• 2:09:38
  Speaker 20: thing doesn't have an app is almost silly.
• 2:09:41
  Speaker 61: I think you'll see one coming in the future. I
• 2:09:44
  Speaker 61: think the first thing is to get the website to
• 2:09:46
  Speaker 61: be more friendly for people to navigate and also to
• 2:09:51
  Speaker 61: find exactly what you're talking about.
• 2:09:53
  Speaker 11: Because as you start to build up.
• 2:09:55
  Speaker 61: A library of video, you need to have the ability
• 2:09:59
  Speaker 61: for people to access it after the fact as well.
• 2:10:01
  Speaker 61: But I do believe that all of that's heading in
• 2:10:04
  Speaker 61: the right direction. And I'd like to think that Game
• 2:10:06
  Speaker 61: Day showed the.
• 2:10:11
  Speaker 61: Interest of the community showed that people still want that
• 2:10:15
  Speaker 61: kind of content.
• 2:10:16
  Speaker 20: Look, what's great about Game Day and anything in the
• 2:10:18
  Speaker 20: visual content is you start to highlight people, real people
• 2:10:22
  Speaker 20: in our community. And in Game Day's instance, it's kids
• 2:10:28
  Speaker 20: in high school sports. So this is a big deal.
• 2:10:32
  Speaker 20: But that model can really be extrapolated into many different
• 2:10:37
  Speaker 20: areas in our community. And, you know, you start highlighting people,
• 2:10:40
  Speaker 20: business owners, you know, artists, whatever it's going to be.
• 2:10:44
  Speaker 20: You know, there is a will for the local community
• 2:10:48
  Speaker 20: to want to know more about this. More so than
• 2:10:53
  Speaker 20: the Trump administration, which we hear on every feed of our,
• 2:10:56
  Speaker 20: you know, we can't get away from that.
• 2:10:58
  Speaker 2: No, no.
• 2:10:59
  Speaker 20: So when I hear a refreshing story about a young
• 2:11:01
  Speaker 20: athlete who, you know, does his thing or her thing...
• 2:11:06
  Speaker 20: it's awesome. And it's, it's, and I'm, and I'm stopped
• 2:11:09
  Speaker 20: in my tracks to learn more about this, even though
• 2:11:11
  Speaker 20: I have no real interest in it only because it's
• 2:11:13
  Speaker 20: human and it's in my community.
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 14: Sure.
• 2:11:15
  Speaker 61: And I think our most popular, uh, videos are the weekly, uh,
• 2:11:20
  Speaker 61: player spotlights that we do, which are the vignettes on
• 2:11:23
  Speaker 61: the players from the teams, uh, sponsored by Mashantucket Pequot
• 2:11:26
  Speaker 61: Tribal Nation. Uh, and they are widely received because what,
• 2:11:33
  Speaker 61: These have evolved as well. You go to the coach
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 61: and you say, hey, we need a story on a player.
• 2:11:37
  Speaker 11: And the coach goes... Oh, you're going to do it
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 11: on Steve Elsie.
• 2:11:40
  Speaker 61: He's a senior, and he's the first guy to show up,
• 2:11:41
  Speaker 61: and he plays six positions, and he's the last one
• 2:11:43
  Speaker 61: to leave, and he's a hard worker.
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 1: True story.
• 2:11:45
  Speaker 61: And then you go to the next team, and you go,
• 2:11:47
  Speaker 61: I need a story on a player.
• 2:11:49
  Speaker 11: And they go, oh, you're going to do it on
• 2:11:50
  Speaker 11: Casey O'Neal.
• 2:11:50
  Speaker 61: He's a senior, and he's the first one to show up,
• 2:11:52
  Speaker 61: and he's played six positions.
• 2:11:54
  Speaker 11: No one's interested in that story again.
• 2:11:56
  Speaker 61: So we tell the coaches, we need a story that's
• 2:11:59
  Speaker 61: interesting off the field, something different. And this is why
• 2:12:02
  Speaker 61: we get these really cool stories. And I'll just share
• 2:12:04
  Speaker 61: very quickly. the coach from Brantford, next week we're doing
• 2:12:08
  Speaker 61: Ledger and Brantford. Brantford, very good 3-1 team. The coach says,
• 2:12:12
  Speaker 61: I don't really have guys that do much off the field.
• 2:12:14
  Speaker 61: I got a bunch of senior football players. And I
• 2:12:17
  Speaker 61: was like, well, I bet you do. Let's figure something out.
• 2:12:19
  Speaker 61: So we get to Brantford, and he goes, you're going
• 2:12:21
  Speaker 61: to do the feature on.
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 2: Dom.
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 61: He's a sophomore. And I go, okay, what's interesting about Dom?
• 2:12:27
  Speaker 61: He's like, well, this summer, Dom told me he was
• 2:12:28
  Speaker 61: going to miss a bunch of football lifts. And I
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 61: asked him why. And he said, well, because he was
• 2:12:33
  Speaker 61: going to be competing in the Taekwondo Nationals, and I
• 2:12:37
  Speaker 61: was like, you have to understand, Dom is, Dom looks
• 2:12:40
  Speaker 61: like the kid that gets shoved into lockers. What I
• 2:12:43
  Speaker 61: quickly found out was, no one's shoving Dom into a locker.
• 2:12:48
  Speaker 61: He's like this soft-spoken, five-foot-nothing, 100-nothing, but he goes to the,
• 2:12:53
  Speaker 61: he's a Taekwondo guy, and he comes back, and the coach.
• 2:12:56
  Speaker 11: Goes, how'd you do? And he goes, I did okay.
• 2:12:58
  Speaker 11: And he goes, what'd you finish? He goes, fourth. He goes,
• 2:13:00
  Speaker 11: you finished fourth in the country? He goes, yeah.
• 2:13:04
  Speaker 61: And he's like, Okay, now I realize, like, I got
• 2:13:07
  Speaker 61: this kid who can take down my biggest lineman, and
• 2:13:10
  Speaker 61: he's just a real soft-spoken kid and stuff. So I
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 61: actually went out there with him, and I was like,
• 2:13:14
  Speaker 61: all right, show me what you would do as a
• 2:13:16
  Speaker 61: linebacker if I was coming at you.
• 2:13:18
  Speaker 7: And he did.
• 2:13:18
  Speaker 61: I go, now show me what you would do as
• 2:13:20
  Speaker 61: a taekwondo guy. And he put a kick in my ear.
• 2:13:24
  Speaker 61: I was like, yeah, no one's shoving Dom into a
• 2:13:26
  Speaker 61: locker at all.
• 2:13:27
  Speaker 11: But it's stories.
• 2:13:28
  Speaker 61: Like that where this shy, at the end of the day,
• 2:13:33
  Speaker 61: he's still a shy 15-year-old kid. And it was really,
• 2:13:36
  Speaker 61: really interesting to be able to have a conversation with him.
• 2:13:40
  Speaker 61: So it was really awesome.
• 2:13:44
  Speaker 20: Yeah. Those are the moments. Those are the stories that
• 2:13:50
  Speaker 20: are making it such a big success for you and
• 2:13:52
  Speaker 20: the day.
• 2:13:56
  Speaker 61: The Grade 8 is another thing that seizes on that.
• 2:13:59
  Speaker 61: When we first started doing the Grade 8, which was
• 2:14:01
  Speaker 61: the idea of let's the people– send your clips, right,
• 2:14:04
  Speaker 61: your clips. The first year that we ran the grade eight,
• 2:14:08
  Speaker 61: we would often have to go into the games that
• 2:14:13
  Speaker 61: we have done and actively search to get eight clips.
• 2:14:17
  Speaker 20: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 2:14:18
  Speaker 61: We get 65 clips a week sent to us now. People,
• 2:14:23
  Speaker 61: you know, from youth.
• 2:14:24
  Speaker 11: All the way through all the sports.
• 2:14:26
  Speaker 61: So the community recognizes, and I can't tell you, like,
• 2:14:33
  Speaker 61: the amount of times that I just hear, thank you
• 2:14:37
  Speaker 61: for putting a spotlight on these kids, you know, that,
• 2:14:42
  Speaker 61: which is all we're trying to do.
• 2:14:44
  Speaker 11: And, uh, we do it in a lot of different ways.
• 2:14:46
  Speaker 61: And, you know, the, the day has, you know, the contest,
• 2:14:49
  Speaker 61: the best of the best readers choice awards, the best
• 2:14:51
  Speaker 61: on the shoreline, those contests are designed to give the
• 2:14:55
  Speaker 61: people a voice in telling us who are your favorite
• 2:14:59
  Speaker 61: businesses and stuff like that. Similarly, Game Day is trying
• 2:15:03
  Speaker 61: to give the community a voice in what you want
• 2:15:06
  Speaker 61: to see, what you want to talk about, which is
• 2:15:07
  Speaker 61: why we have, you know, the power rankings and the
• 2:15:09
  Speaker 61: pick-ems and different content that's just designed where people can
• 2:15:14
  Speaker 61: weigh in in the moment and give us, you know,
• 2:15:16
  Speaker 61: kind of their thoughts and stuff. And that's really where
• 2:15:18
  Speaker 61: we've taken off. The studio is really where we've taken off.
• 2:15:21
  Speaker 61: When I do a power rankings, you know, Peter Wapie
• 2:15:24
  Speaker 61: and I do our power rankings. We're getting nonstop during
• 2:15:29
  Speaker 61: these power rankings comments and thoughts from people all over
• 2:15:32
  Speaker 61: the community regarding who should be where. And now there
• 2:15:35
  Speaker 61: are some people who have taken to social media and
• 2:15:39
  Speaker 61: they're doing their own power rankings.
• 2:15:40
  Speaker 11: Just using AI and stuff. It's an homage to us.
• 2:15:44
  Speaker 11: It's a huge compliment.
• 2:15:45
  Speaker 61: People are like, hey, maybe my 50 friends would be
• 2:15:50
  Speaker 61: interested in my power rankings.
• 2:15:51
  Speaker 11: And I think it's really cool.
• 2:15:52
  Speaker 47: Yeah.
• 2:15:53
  Speaker 20: Well, we've just got a couple minutes left here. So,
• 2:15:56
  Speaker 20: you know, what's happening in the day in the next
• 2:15:57
  Speaker 20: few months? What can we look forward to on game day?
• 2:16:00
  Speaker 20: Or where are you going to be at? That kind
• 2:16:02
  Speaker 20: of stuff.
• 2:16:02
  Speaker 61: So game day is heading into its, you know, the
• 2:16:05
  Speaker 61: remainder is football until we get to the championship games.
• 2:16:08
  Speaker 61: The championship games this year are going to be very
• 2:16:11
  Speaker 61: exciting because we're going to be doing them all. We're
• 2:16:12
  Speaker 61: going to do field hockey, boys soccer, girls soccer, girls volleyball.
• 2:16:17
  Speaker 11: Swimming, all of it.
• 2:16:19
  Speaker 61: And we're just putting together our winter schedule, and we're
• 2:16:23
  Speaker 61: looking at– there's a possibility, a strong possibility, that we're
• 2:16:27
  Speaker 61: going to be doing our first hockey game this coming winter,
• 2:16:30
  Speaker 61: which will add another sport to the things that we've done. So, yeah,
• 2:16:34
  Speaker 61: just putting that all together, game day will be nonstop,
• 2:16:37
  Speaker 61: going strong. And as far as the day, I think
• 2:16:39
  Speaker 61: the election– the midterms are a huge– huge.
• 2:16:45
  Speaker 11: For the day.
• 2:16:45
  Speaker 61: I mean, that's the kind of thing the– obviously– The
• 2:16:50
  Speaker 61: debates will be an important thing for the day to host,
• 2:16:52
  Speaker 61: and I think that will get a lot of attention.
• 2:16:54
  Speaker 61: And honestly, as I know you are on both a
• 2:17:00
  Speaker 61: personal level and also on a political level, like.
• 2:17:03
  Speaker 11: November is going to be, it's going to be a
• 2:17:05
  Speaker 11: big day.
• 2:17:06
  Speaker 61: And so, you know, we have, we have skin in
• 2:17:08
  Speaker 61: the game, both personally and politically.
• 2:17:11
  Speaker 20: And so we're going to say, they always say, you know, it's, it's,
• 2:17:13
  Speaker 20: this is the most important election. And I think we might,
• 2:17:15
  Speaker 20: we might be at that one at the real one.
• 2:17:18
  Speaker 61: Actually, I would suggest that, that two years from now,
• 2:17:22
  Speaker 61: it'll be the most, that'll be even more important, but,
• 2:17:25
  Speaker 61: but yeah, but up until now, and I think that's
• 2:17:27
  Speaker 61: going to be the case for quite a while. It's
• 2:17:30
  Speaker 61: this one feels different. And yeah, And I'm really looking
• 2:17:34
  Speaker 61: forward to it.
• 2:17:35
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 2:17:36
  Speaker 20: Again, with Casey O'Neill, thank you so much. We'll be
• 2:17:38
  Speaker 20: right back. And so we're going to go to a
• 2:17:42
  Speaker 20: public service announcement from the Eastline Public Service Announcements.
• 2:17:48
  Speaker 67: Hi, am I on?
• 2:17:53
  Speaker 20: Hello.
• 2:17:54
  Speaker 68: Hello.
• 2:17:56
  Speaker 37: Yes.
• 2:17:56
  Speaker 20: Who am I speaking with?
• 2:18:00
  Speaker 3: Am I on air?
• 2:18:01
  Speaker 20: You're on air, Jan. You're on air.
• 2:18:02
  Speaker 2: How are you?
• 2:18:03
  Speaker 20: This is Steve.
• 2:18:04
  Speaker 34: Okay, I'm fine, thank you.
• 2:18:05
  Speaker 20: You're a public service announcement, right? Yeah, go ahead.
• 2:18:07
  Speaker 67: I was concerned about the young woman with the EpiPen.
• 2:18:11
  Speaker 11: Oh, yes, okay.
• 2:18:11
  Speaker 68: So I did a quick research, and you can get,
• 2:18:15
  Speaker 68: if you have insurance.
• 2:18:16
  Speaker 67: You can get a $ 300 savings on the EpiPen, six
• 2:18:21
  Speaker 67: cartons a year.
• 2:18:22
  Speaker 1: Good.
• 2:18:22
  Speaker 67: If you have absolutely no insurance, you can... get the
• 2:18:27
  Speaker 67: EpiPen completely for free. And if I were handling this
• 2:18:32
  Speaker 67: back when I was working in hospitals, I would have
• 2:18:35
  Speaker 67: gone right to risk management and gotten that straightened out
• 2:18:40
  Speaker 67: because if you dump a patient, a pregnant woman, without
• 2:18:44
  Speaker 67: an EpiPen who's just been in there for an emergency,
• 2:18:48
  Speaker 67: you're going to get sued. And there's also, I mean,
• 2:18:51
  Speaker 67: the human side of it. And I think that If
• 2:18:56
  Speaker 67: I can find that on a five-minute search, there was
• 2:18:59
  Speaker 67: no reason for this woman to be.
• 2:19:01
  Speaker 68: Wandering around trying to find help. And I would hope
• 2:19:04
  Speaker 68: our politicians had this information at their fingertips. But there
• 2:19:08
  Speaker 68: it is. And anybody out.
• 2:19:10
  Speaker 67: There who needs an EpiPen, I've sent the.
• 2:19:13
  Speaker 68: Information to Lee. And I'm sure there are changes and
• 2:19:18

• 2:26:45
  Speaker 20: am here with Lady Mo. Lady Mo, we got a
• 2:26:48
  Speaker 20: special segment here right now. Yeah, we got a special segment.
• 2:26:52
  Speaker 20: You know, Lady Mo, you've been on a lot, and
• 2:26:56
  Speaker 20: we've been talking about, you know, spiritualism, astrology, and Jessica
• 2:27:03
  Speaker 20: of Goodness Gracious. did an astrology chart on you. Is
• 2:27:06
  Speaker 20: that right?
• 2:27:07
  Speaker 51: She did.
• 2:27:07
  Speaker 20: And she is here with us right now. Can we
• 2:27:09
  Speaker 20: bring her in right now? Jessica, you there?
• 2:27:11
  Speaker 68: I'm here.
• 2:27:12
  Speaker 24: Hi guys.
• 2:27:13
  Speaker 20: All right, there you go. Um, so I'm going to
• 2:27:16
  Speaker 20: let you just, and, and everybody out there, just wait
• 2:27:19
  Speaker 20: till you hear this. Um, so Jessica, just tell us what,
• 2:27:22
  Speaker 20: what you've done for Lady Mo and how this worked.
• 2:27:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 2:27:26
  Speaker 34: So I ran a natal chart for Lady Mo. Um,
• 2:27:30
  Speaker 34: I gave her all of her placements, um, where all
• 2:27:33
  Speaker 34: of her planets were, the exact moment she was born.
• 2:27:36
  Speaker 34: She sent me all of her personal information, so I
• 2:27:38
  Speaker 34: ran the chart. And then I ran something I created,
• 2:27:43
  Speaker 34: which I titled Skyfall Stars as a Soul Memoir. So
• 2:27:48
  Speaker 34: it takes all of your placements, and it turns it
• 2:27:50
  Speaker 34: basically into a biography about you. And you're basically reading
• 2:27:54
  Speaker 34: a book about yourself based off of where the planets
• 2:27:57
  Speaker 34: were the moment you were born.
• 2:27:59
  Speaker 59: And from my.
• 2:28:00
  Speaker 34: Understanding, Lady Mo had quite the response to it. So
• 2:28:03
  Speaker 34: I'm really excited to talk to her about this.
• 2:28:05
  Speaker 70: Thank you for doing it. It's hot off the press.
• 2:28:07
  Speaker 70: Just this week you did it and took the time.
• 2:28:09
  Speaker 70: It's 30 pages and really thorough.
• 2:28:12
  Speaker 20: So tell us about it. What did you realize? What
• 2:28:16
  Speaker 20: jumped out at you reading this?
• 2:28:18
  Speaker 63: Me or Jess?
• 2:28:20
  Speaker 20: Well, both of you guys. Go ahead.
• 2:28:22
  Speaker 70: First, I mean, just the brilliance of it.
• 2:28:25
  Speaker 63: When you first, the visual of it is striking, right?
• 2:28:28
  Speaker 70: When you first receive it in the email, you know,
• 2:28:32
  Speaker 70: you feel connected immediately to the sky full of stars,
• 2:28:36
  Speaker 70: you know, that you're, we all are of the stars.
• 2:28:41
  Speaker 70: And you start reading this and it almost looks like
• 2:28:45
  Speaker 70: this geometric design mapped out in the sky just of you.
• 2:28:52
  Speaker 70: And then the language that goes along with it.
• 2:28:57
  Speaker 63: It's very moving.
• 2:28:58
  Speaker 70: I think it all resonated with me, to be honest with.
• 2:29:02
  Speaker 3: You, Steve.
• 2:29:03
  Speaker 63: It was very hard to pick a specific section.
• 2:29:06
  Speaker 70: Because each one was specific to a season or a
• 2:29:14
  Speaker 70: stage in my life that I could relate to or
• 2:29:17
  Speaker 70: that I am in now. You know, maybe, Jess, you
• 2:29:21
  Speaker 70: could talk about the two things that you sent me.
• 2:29:24
  Speaker 70: You sent me the astrological chart the mapping of the
• 2:29:28
  Speaker 70: stars in the sky and the uh planets and the alignment.
• 2:29:35
  Speaker 63: You want to chat about that first i.
• 2:29:36
  Speaker 34: Said to the needle wheel so um astrology in and
• 2:29:39
  Speaker 34: of itself is like a whole nother language um i
• 2:29:42
  Speaker 34: don't claim to be you know but no i'm still
• 2:29:44
  Speaker 34: learning honestly if i'm being completely honest um but it's
• 2:29:48
  Speaker 34: a map it's a you're basically your soul's blueprint so
• 2:29:51
  Speaker 34: i show it to you in visual form of what
• 2:29:54
  Speaker 34: it looks like the very moment that you're born And
• 2:29:56
  Speaker 34: then The Sky Full of Stars is more about the
• 2:29:58
  Speaker 34: story about it because, again, astrology is a whole other language.
• 2:30:02
  Speaker 67: It's so deep and.
• 2:30:03
  Speaker 34: It's so involved. And so I read your memoir before
• 2:30:09
  Speaker 34: I ever sent it to you. And reading it, I
• 2:30:14
  Speaker 34: felt like I knew you. And I don't. We just
• 2:30:16
  Speaker 34: connected based off of the last time I was on air,
• 2:30:19
  Speaker 34: which was like a month.
• 2:30:20
  Speaker 67: And a half ago.
• 2:30:21
  Speaker 34: And then we just recently connected again this week. This
• 2:30:24
  Speaker 34: was an idea that popped in and thanks to Steve,
• 2:30:26
  Speaker 34: we kind of connected that way. And when I read it,
• 2:30:30
  Speaker 34: I saw a lot of, what's fun is that I
• 2:30:32
  Speaker 34: saw a lot of similarities in you as me. And
• 2:30:36
  Speaker 34: I tend to gravitate more towards the North node. I
• 2:30:40
  Speaker 34: am very drawn to the North node because it's the
• 2:30:44
  Speaker 34: direction that your soul is pulling you towards. And a
• 2:30:46
  Speaker 34: lot of people resist that because of, societal structures and
• 2:30:51
  Speaker 34: what we believe we have to do to be successful.
• 2:30:55
  Speaker 34: And what really jumped out to me was that yours
• 2:30:58
  Speaker 34: is in the fifth house, which is, you know, pleasure, creativity, self-expression.
• 2:31:04
  Speaker 34: And yours has Leo in it, which is all about
• 2:31:07
  Speaker 34: the spotlight. Like, you're supposed to be a natural-born leader.
• 2:31:10
  Speaker 15: Who, Lady Moe?
• 2:31:11
  Speaker 20: The spotlight?
• 2:31:12
  Speaker 3: Come on.
• 2:31:12
  Speaker 29: Leo the lion?
• 2:31:13
  Speaker 66: What?
• 2:31:14
  Speaker 18: Yeah, exactly.
• 2:31:15
  Speaker 34: You know, you're south node in Aquarius, which is of
• 2:31:19
  Speaker 34: the collective, right? And so you're kind of supposed to
• 2:31:22
  Speaker 34: move away from more group-focused or collective ideals, and you're
• 2:31:27
  Speaker 34: supposed to move towards more authentic, heart-centered self-expression and leadership.
• 2:31:32
  Speaker 34: So you're supposed to stop hiding in the crowds and
• 2:31:35
  Speaker 34: blending in, and you're meant to, like, stand out and
• 2:31:38
  Speaker 34: live from the heart and trust your passions. Stop taking
• 2:31:41
  Speaker 34: life so seriously. Drop the fear of being foolish. You know,
• 2:31:45
  Speaker 34: connect with your inner child for self-expression. And you're learning
• 2:31:50
  Speaker 34: to release over-reliance on groups or friends and releasing maybe
• 2:31:55
  Speaker 34: more of a detached or an impersonal demeanor and releasing
• 2:32:00
  Speaker 34: the fear of standing out. One thing that really stood
• 2:32:04
  Speaker 34: out to me was that you do, kind of like
• 2:32:06
  Speaker 34: I do, it's like you're trying to find You have
• 2:32:09
  Speaker 34: to trust that your passions, your creativity, being your authentic
• 2:32:15
  Speaker 34: self is value enough and putting yourself out there isn't
• 2:32:18
  Speaker 34: egotistical or selfish in any way whatsoever. And so I
• 2:32:22
  Speaker 34: found it very interesting when we connected on Facebook that
• 2:32:25
  Speaker 34: you're kind of gravitating more towards you know, creating your
• 2:32:28
  Speaker 34: own podcast and putting your voice out there. And I'm
• 2:32:32
  Speaker 34: just like, that's right in line.
• 2:32:33
  Speaker 63: Can you believe it? I'm like in it.
• 2:32:35
  Speaker 34: You're kind of meant to do is put yourself out there.
• 2:32:37
  Speaker 36: I know.
• 2:32:38
  Speaker 63: It's so cool. It's happening.
• 2:32:40
  Speaker 70: Like what I was reading on the page is literally
• 2:32:43
  Speaker 70: happening in my life and thrill 3d right now on earth.
• 2:32:46
  Speaker 2: It's crazy.
• 2:32:47
  Speaker 24: It's amazing.
• 2:32:48
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 2:32:48
  Speaker 34: And so that's why I'm so passionate about astrology is
• 2:32:50
  Speaker 34: because we're so blissfully unaware of what's taking place in
• 2:32:54
  Speaker 34: the sky above us and not realizing that what's playing
• 2:32:57
  Speaker 34: out in our lives has the direct result of the
• 2:33:00
  Speaker 34: sky above us and correlation to the very moment that
• 2:33:04
  Speaker 34: we were born.
• 2:33:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 2:33:06
  Speaker 70: I think there's something to be said about reclaiming your
• 2:33:10
  Speaker 70: moral sense. You're, you know, not conforming to the structures
• 2:33:14
  Speaker 70: around you, being able to ever evolve and adapt and
• 2:33:19
  Speaker 70: acclimate to any situation. And, um, and like that reading,
• 2:33:24
  Speaker 70: it just confirmed for me. I always felt that I
• 2:33:26
  Speaker 70: was able to do that, but, uh, you know, reading
• 2:33:30
  Speaker 70: it really solidified it for me.
• 2:33:33
  Speaker 20: So Jess, really quick, who, who is this for? I mean,
• 2:33:37
  Speaker 20: is this for, is this for everyone to, to, to,
• 2:33:40
  Speaker 20: to learn from? Is it, uh, you know, when, when
• 2:33:43
  Speaker 20: is the best time to do this for someone?
• 2:33:46
  Speaker 34: Really at any time. And like I said, it's constantly evolving, right? So, um,
• 2:33:51
  Speaker 34: Your chart is based off of– it's all energy. To
• 2:33:53
  Speaker 34: go back to a segment that you guys had talked
• 2:33:55
  Speaker 34: about a couple weeks ago, which I love, is everything
• 2:33:58
  Speaker 34: is energy, right? The planets hold certain energies, the stars,
• 2:34:02
  Speaker 34: the constellation, everything. So it's really for anybody. And I'd
• 2:34:05
  Speaker 34: really like to use this quote.
• 2:34:07
  Speaker 17: J.P.
• 2:34:08
  Speaker 34: Morgan once said, millionaires don't use astrology. Billionaires do. And
• 2:34:15
  Speaker 34: if you do the research, you find that a lot
• 2:34:17
  Speaker 34: of very– well-off people have hired astrologers to help lead
• 2:34:23
  Speaker 34: the way in their business. So it's not just personal.
• 2:34:25
  Speaker 34: You can use this in finance and business. There's astrologers
• 2:34:29
  Speaker 34: that recharge specifically or the energy of what we're currently
• 2:34:34
  Speaker 34: in and correlate it to the financial markets and have
• 2:34:37
  Speaker 34: made a boatload of money doing that.
• 2:34:39
  Speaker 40: Wow.
• 2:34:40
  Speaker 20: I agree with that.
• 2:34:41
  Speaker 34: I mean, it's really for anybody.
• 2:34:42
  Speaker 70: Yeah, it can be this knowledge that you receive.
• 2:34:48
  Speaker 70: Pulls you inward and is a mirror so that you
• 2:34:53
  Speaker 70: can directly reflect and apply that into every facet of
• 2:34:59
  Speaker 70: your life and in the world. And honestly, I think
• 2:35:01
  Speaker 70: it's truly beneficial for everybody, no matter what your background is.
• 2:35:06
  Speaker 55: Yeah, really.
• 2:35:07
  Speaker 70: I mean, it's really something that I it would really
• 2:35:09
  Speaker 70: be nice to know just when we're born.
• 2:35:12
  Speaker 55: Yeah.
• 2:35:12
  Speaker 20: I mean, you know, is this is this something that
• 2:35:14
  Speaker 20: changes over time? So, for instance, if you're if you're
• 2:35:17
  Speaker 20: a parent.
• 2:35:18
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 2:35:18
  Speaker 20: And you have a, you know, a middle school child
• 2:35:21
  Speaker 20: and you want to have this done and you have
• 2:35:23
  Speaker 20: it done and then maybe you have it done again.
• 2:35:27
  Speaker 20: I mean, does it change in 10 years?
• 2:35:29
  Speaker 34: Yeah, so it's all energy, right? And we all have
• 2:35:32
  Speaker 34: free will, so we can choose what we do with
• 2:35:35
  Speaker 34: that information, right? So for example, like my chart shows
• 2:35:37
  Speaker 34: that I'd be really successful in real estate and finance,
• 2:35:42
  Speaker 34: but astrology is also very strong. So it's really up
• 2:35:45
  Speaker 34: to you which path you choose. There's no right or
• 2:35:47
  Speaker 34: wrong answer. You learn to find the energies that coincide
• 2:35:51
  Speaker 34: with yourself and work with those instead of against them.
• 2:35:53
  Speaker 34: So you asked me a couple years ago if You know,
• 2:35:57
  Speaker 34: I would be doing this as a passion, and I
• 2:36:00
  Speaker 34: would say no. But then the response has been really well,
• 2:36:03
  Speaker 34: and I can see myself doing this for the rest
• 2:36:05
  Speaker 34: of my life. But, you know, the old me went
• 2:36:08
  Speaker 34: to school, got my degrees and everything. And not that
• 2:36:11
  Speaker 34: that's wrong, but this lights me up more, and I'm
• 2:36:14
  Speaker 34: finding that I'm having better success with this than I
• 2:36:16
  Speaker 34: did busting my butt at a job that I wasn't.
• 2:36:18
  Speaker 20: And you do this for individual folks, but also at organizations.
• 2:36:23
  Speaker 20: gatherings at functions where you can sit and kind of
• 2:36:26
  Speaker 20: teach people about astrology and then they come up to
• 2:36:28
  Speaker 20: you and get get this done right you you do
• 2:36:31
  Speaker 20: for parties for people it it can be used you
• 2:36:34
  Speaker 20: know in any event that you can kind of create right.
• 2:36:37
  Speaker 34: Oh yeah absolutely i have one this weekend i'm in
• 2:36:40
  Speaker 34: florida right now and i have an event in daytona
• 2:36:43
  Speaker 34: this weekend where i'll be sitting with a few women
• 2:36:46
  Speaker 34: or men. It's for men. It's for everybody, really. But,
• 2:36:49
  Speaker 34: you know, just kind of, I'm not going to go
• 2:36:51
  Speaker 34: over their personal charts in front of everybody, but I
• 2:36:54
  Speaker 34: will have a copy of that for them so that
• 2:36:56
  Speaker 34: they can go home and read it. And then what
• 2:36:58
  Speaker 34: my thing is, is I'm going to teach people what
• 2:37:01
  Speaker 34: each house represents, right? So in Lady Mo's case, like,
• 2:37:05
  Speaker 34: your first house has a tazini, which is multiple planets,
• 2:37:08
  Speaker 34: three or more planets in one area. And that amplifies
• 2:37:12
  Speaker 34: the energy, right? And so like the first house is
• 2:37:14
  Speaker 34: of the self. And so I kind of start explaining
• 2:37:18
  Speaker 34: that to people so they have a little bit more
• 2:37:19
  Speaker 34: understanding before they go home with this information. But that's
• 2:37:23
  Speaker 34: why I love the sky full of stars because it's
• 2:37:25
  Speaker 34: written in such a way where it's just you're reading
• 2:37:27
  Speaker 34: about yourself instead of trying to figure out what energies
• 2:37:30
  Speaker 34: mean and what these houses mean. I'll do a teaching
• 2:37:33
  Speaker 34: about that, but the bulk of it is my goal
• 2:37:36
  Speaker 34: at the end of the day is to help people
• 2:37:38
  Speaker 34: come back into alignment with themselves so that they can
• 2:37:42
  Speaker 34: be their best selves. It facilitates a lot of healing,
• 2:37:48
  Speaker 34: maybe from childhood. wounds or trauma or even adult, you know,
• 2:37:52
  Speaker 34: kind of helps make you make sense of things that
• 2:37:55
  Speaker 34: have taken place in your life along the way.
• 2:38:00
  Speaker 70: I mean, do you want to talk about some of
• 2:38:02
  Speaker 70: the particular sections or some of the little blurbs that
• 2:38:05
  Speaker 70: I sent you that I highlighted last night?
• 2:38:08
  Speaker 34: I mean, you sent me an email last night about
• 2:38:09
  Speaker 34: a few of the passages that like really stood out
• 2:38:12
  Speaker 34: to you. And so whatever you're comfortable with, because I'm Again,
• 2:38:15
  Speaker 34: this gets down to the soul level. So whatever it
• 2:38:18
  Speaker 34: is that you're comfortable sharing, I would love your.
• 2:38:21
  Speaker 31: Review on it all.
• 2:38:22
  Speaker 64: Yeah.
• 2:38:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 2:38:23
  Speaker 63: It was just gorgeous.
• 2:38:24
  Speaker 70: I have to open it on my email.
• 2:38:30
  Speaker 34: I have your email back. And one of the things
• 2:38:32
  Speaker 34: that really jumped out at me last night because it
• 2:38:35
  Speaker 34: resonated so deeply with myself, too, and it showed this
• 2:38:38
  Speaker 34: in my chart as well, is that your belief, your spirituality,
• 2:38:42
  Speaker 34: your philosophy, travel, and culture– symbolism, study, or contact with
• 2:38:47
  Speaker 34: reality larger than the immediate environment is what feeds your
• 2:38:51
  Speaker 34: emotional life.
• 2:38:52
  Speaker 67: Would you say that's true?
• 2:38:54
  Speaker 2: Wholeheartedly.
• 2:38:55
  Speaker 37: Yeah.
• 2:38:55
  Speaker 63: Like deep in my soul.
• 2:38:56
  Speaker 5: And I got that.
• 2:38:57
  Speaker 34: Energy, or I got that feeling when I was listening
• 2:38:59
  Speaker 34: to you and Steve talk about energy work, you know,
• 2:39:02
  Speaker 34: how you're just, I felt like you were meant to
• 2:39:06
  Speaker 34: travel more down that path. And then another thing that
• 2:39:09
  Speaker 34: jumped out at me was that, and I do this too,
• 2:39:12
  Speaker 34: is that you tend to make things make sense in
• 2:39:16
  Speaker 34: a spiritual sense in the 3D reality.
• 2:39:19
  Speaker 59: So, like, X, Y, Z.
• 2:39:20
  Speaker 34: Happened because of this, this, and that. And for me,
• 2:39:23
  Speaker 34: when I do that, it makes me feel a little
• 2:39:25
  Speaker 34: bit better, and I saw that it's pretty prominent in
• 2:39:28
  Speaker 34: your chart as well.
• 2:39:29
  Speaker 70: Yeah, there's always a why for something. I like to
• 2:39:31
  Speaker 70: look deeper at a why. something is happening the way
• 2:39:35
  Speaker 70: it's happening. There's a lot of different reasons why and
• 2:39:39
  Speaker 70: different layers to why your life is unfolding the way
• 2:39:44
  Speaker 70: it is. And we all could take some ownership on that.
• 2:39:48
  Speaker 70: But sometimes it takes a little clarity in front of
• 2:39:51
  Speaker 70: you to have that. You know, I particularly liked, she
• 2:39:54
  Speaker 70: did not come here to merely survive. She came to
• 2:39:58
  Speaker 70: determine what makes life worth inhabiting.
• 2:40:01
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 2:40:02
  Speaker 62: Yeah.
• 2:40:03
  Speaker 34: That's really strong.
• 2:40:04
  Speaker 68: That's really powerful.
• 2:40:05
  Speaker 63: And the Venus, yeah, sorry, go ahead.
• 2:40:07
  Speaker 34: Given what it is that you're trying to build now,
• 2:40:09
  Speaker 34: you know, and that's exactly what you're doing.
• 2:40:11
  Speaker 25: It is.
• 2:40:11
  Speaker 70: The language was like matched my branding. It like exactly,
• 2:40:17
  Speaker 70: which I do feel that these were messages in some way.
• 2:40:21
  Speaker 70: I don't know whether you call them downloads or remembering
• 2:40:25
  Speaker 70: or an awakening of an ancient knowledge that was once within,
• 2:40:30
  Speaker 70: but the timing seems.
• 2:40:31
  Speaker 63: Exactly right now.
• 2:40:32
  Speaker 70: That this podcast, uh, radio thing is, is falling into
• 2:40:37
  Speaker 70: place for me at this moment. And I'm embodying it, um,
• 2:40:43
  Speaker 70: in real time for like in 3d.
• 2:40:44
  Speaker 63: It's crazy. It's wild.
• 2:40:47
  Speaker 34: I call them downloads, but yes, no, I'm finding that
• 2:40:50
  Speaker 34: a lot of my chart is lining up with the
• 2:40:52
  Speaker 34: time that we're in now, you know, to touch back
• 2:40:54
  Speaker 34: on that North node, uh, thing where the direction your
• 2:40:57
  Speaker 34: soul is being called towards, Mine is in my ninth house,
• 2:41:01
  Speaker 34: which is of travel and philosophy and higher learning and wisdom,
• 2:41:06
  Speaker 34: excuse me, esoteric knowledge, spirituality as a whole. And that's
• 2:41:11
  Speaker 34: exactly the direction I feel pulled toward, you know, like,
• 2:41:16
  Speaker 34: of course, life gets in the way and you got
• 2:41:18
  Speaker 34: to work your regular nine to five job, which is
• 2:41:20
  Speaker 34: what I'm going to be doing when we get off
• 2:41:21
  Speaker 34: this year, which I love, don't get me wrong, but
• 2:41:24
  Speaker 34: is it what fills me?
• 2:41:25
  Speaker 21: No.
• 2:41:26
  Speaker 34: And that's because that's not giving me the spirituality, creative
• 2:41:30
  Speaker 34: outlet that my soul is calling me toward. So that's
• 2:41:34
  Speaker 34: what the charts really help you to see is like,
• 2:41:36
  Speaker 34: there's no right or wrong answer of the way that
• 2:41:38
  Speaker 34: you're doing life. It just helps open up doors in
• 2:41:41
  Speaker 34: so many different ways.
• 2:41:43
  Speaker 3: It does.
• 2:41:44
  Speaker 36: It does.
• 2:41:44
  Speaker 70: There's a, There's something special when you realize, you know,
• 2:41:51
  Speaker 70: the healing really sort of is not learning to become valuable.
• 2:41:56
  Speaker 70: It's just recognizing that your value existed before the proof.
• 2:41:59
  Speaker 63: So like this says it all. It says it all.
• 2:42:03
  Speaker 39: Thank you.
• 2:42:03
  Speaker 63: I'm super grateful for it, Jess, really.
• 2:42:06
  Speaker 20: So, Jessica, where can everybody out there, you know, I mean,

• 2:42:18

  Speaker 34: What am I studying right now? I'm honestly still studying
• 2:44:01
  Speaker 34: myself to learn myself on a better level. I found
• 2:44:04
  Speaker 34: myself not, you know, I've been through, the last three
• 2:44:08
  Speaker 34: years have been really rough for me and I felt
• 2:44:10
  Speaker 34: stagnant and I keep referring back to my chart to do,
• 2:44:14
  Speaker 34: to find like the repeating patterns that, you know, where I'm,
• 2:44:18
  Speaker 34: where I'm heading. So I've been more, and it's going
• 2:44:20
  Speaker 34: to sound really egotistical and I don't mean it to
• 2:44:22
  Speaker 34: come out that way, but I am so wildly, I
• 2:44:25
  Speaker 34: love self-awareness and I love, growing and i love you
• 2:44:29
  Speaker 34: know being the best version of me so lately it's
• 2:44:31
  Speaker 34: been more of that to be honest with you but
• 2:44:34
  Speaker 34: i i am uh i have signed up for a

• 2:45:05
  Speaker 34: people so that I can help them, what I like
• 2:45:08
  Speaker 34: to call level up in their life instead of, you know,
• 2:45:11
  Speaker 34: we can be our own worst critics, right? We can
• 2:45:13
  Speaker 34: beat ourselves up internally. And I'm looking to end that
• 2:45:17
  Speaker 34: with people using the stars as a tool.
• 2:45:19
