- 0:35[SPEAKER_00]: We saw Ukraine doing this over the weekend as well.
- 0:38[SPEAKER_00]: And one of the main goals here for Ukraine is to bring the war or try to bring the war to the ordinary Russian citizen.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_00]: And the other reason is because Ukraine has accused wild berries of handling military goods.

- 4:56[SPEAKER_06]: Lots of things happening.
- 4:58[SPEAKER_06]: We've got...
- 5:00[SPEAKER_06]: And we'll have politics, local news, we'll do local news, hey, red in the paper this morning.
- 5:05[SPEAKER_06]: Do you hear Tommy John dying?
- 5:06[SPEAKER_11]: He says to me.
- 5:09[SPEAKER_06]: And the weather, you just heard the forecast, but what beautiful weather we're having up here in the North country.
- 5:16[SPEAKER_06]: Some parts of the south are just boiling today, but very pleasant here in the 70s and sunny and enjoy.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_06]: Enjoy.
- 5:30[SPEAKER_06]: over in Cross Street, cocaine, fentanyl, mushrooms, what is it about mushrooms?
- 5:39[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I'm a high amount of pizza maybe, I don't know, you can go buy weed anywhere which can't have a mushroom and a strange, how do you explain that to an 18-year-old, you know?
- 6:00[SPEAKER_06]: So anyway, uh, trees, you know what I was thinking of, I was looking at trees this morning, and I was thinking, there's some on our street at Pearl Street.
- 6:10[SPEAKER_06]: None in front of my place, because it's all black top.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_06]: But between the sidewalk and the road, I remember back in the 80s, they put these trees in and now they're huge, we're getting huge.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_06]: And they need trimming and one of them's dead.
- 6:25[SPEAKER_06]: I thought we had a tree person to take care of all of that, but I know we're also a poor street, so that's brilliant.
- 6:30[SPEAKER_06]: But can people trim them themselves?
- 6:33[SPEAKER_06]: I know our neighbors had some other trees cut down recently, I didn't.
- 6:40[SPEAKER_06]: They probably were afraid to touch the one, all up in the wires and everything, with those things really should be trimmed.
- 6:47[SPEAKER_06]: And I shouldn't put in trees that get that big, between the sideblock and the road.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_06]: This is not Thompson Boulevard.
- 6:55[SPEAKER_06]: Hey, old Russ Finley came down last night.
- 6:57[SPEAKER_06]: He was drop it off signs for a couple of people here in town and dropped it in my place and I guess one of the mean girls is going to pick him up today sometime.
- 7:08[SPEAKER_11]: For Constantine, oh yeah.
- 7:09[SPEAKER_06]: I guess he's helping him out or doing something for providing the wisdom of his years advice and all of that.
- 7:17[SPEAKER_06]: He, you know, rest doesn't know a lot about politics, really.
- 7:21[SPEAKER_11]: I know people, you know, like to make fun of him and
- 7:24[SPEAKER_06]: all the names and all that, but those are usually people that don't know anything, you know what I mean?
- 7:30[SPEAKER_13]: Exactly.
- 7:32[SPEAKER_06]: But in that NY21 race, and again, I know that water towns not in that, but many of our listeners are, especially the ones up in Ogden'sburg and Canton and Governor, on WQTK, yeah.
- 7:47[SPEAKER_06]: So when I talk about NY21 on this station, it's very relevant.
- 7:51[SPEAKER_06]: But anyway, the other candidate, Blake Jen Debeen, is having a sworey, I guess you're good.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_06]: Well, it's late in the afternoon, I don't know if it.
- 8:00[SPEAKER_06]: Up in Carthage, $50 minimum, up to $3,500 for want to be a sponsor, nobody does that.
- 8:08[SPEAKER_06]: What you hope for in those type of things, because it's done through Act Blue and all of that.
- 8:12[SPEAKER_06]: And they're having Mary Gay Scanlon, the Congresswoman from Pennsylvania and as a guest speaker in Watertown, Native.
- 8:20[SPEAKER_06]: I think his her dad was an up-the-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-know-
- 8:42[SPEAKER_06]: or near-do-wells or protestors, so we don't know where in Carthage it is, where would your hold a big event, political event like that in Carthage?
- 8:49[SPEAKER_06]: Is that zero dock still open I hear that was nice?
- 8:53[SPEAKER_06]: I didn't know if it was open, caddies is not open anymore.
- 8:57[SPEAKER_06]: There's a wicked wench, probably a legion or something like that up there.
- 9:04[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know where
- 9:12[SPEAKER_06]: You can look on Facebook page or something.
- 9:15[SPEAKER_06]: Look right at my blog, I put the you notice up there.
- 9:17[SPEAKER_06]: No, you know, I'm an open minded person.
- 9:20[SPEAKER_06]: I don't sit there in favor one of the other.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_06]: The other candidates are having something.
- 9:27[SPEAKER_15]: Apparently her father was the lawyer, Dan Stan.
- 9:31[SPEAKER_11]: Who was the ophthalmologist?
- 9:32[SPEAKER_11]: Was that his brother?
- 9:34[SPEAKER_06]: OK. Nice family, though.
- 9:37[SPEAKER_06]: I knew Dan and I think I knew the doctor.
- 9:39[SPEAKER_06]: I think I went to him once.
- 9:41[SPEAKER_06]: and I'm still able to see so he must have done a good job.
- 9:44[SPEAKER_06]: 755, 1240, the phone number, if you'd like to be on the air today.
- 9:50[SPEAKER_06]: Commissioner Goodall on the NFL says there will be football outside the US at some point.
- 9:56[SPEAKER_06]: Really Commissioner, I don't like those games and London and Munich and Brazil now.
- 10:02[SPEAKER_06]: It's an American game play at America.
- 10:05[SPEAKER_06]: You want to have a team and Toronto?
- 10:07[SPEAKER_06]: That's one thing.
- 10:09[SPEAKER_06]: But tell this, that's silly.
- 10:12[SPEAKER_06]: Because you know what it's gonna mean?
- 10:13[SPEAKER_06]: Some day, there'll be a super bowl held at one of those foreign teams.
- 10:19[SPEAKER_06]: Long dinner, someplace like that.
- 10:21[SPEAKER_06]: Won't that be nice?
- 10:23[SPEAKER_15]: Now, won't that be nice?
- 10:29[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, what else are you going on?
- 10:31[SPEAKER_06]: Well, City Council, what they do last?
- 10:32[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, they approved that settlement.
- 10:33[SPEAKER_06]: We talked about that before, but that was expected.
- 10:36[SPEAKER_06]: Five, nothing.
- 10:37[SPEAKER_06]: Four to one on the binding ordinance.
- 10:38[SPEAKER_06]: That was expected, too.
- 10:41[SPEAKER_06]: I, of course, it's easy to be a rebel when you're the fifth person cast to, you know, they go, they vote in sequence.
- 10:46[SPEAKER_06]: If it's four, nothing by the time we get to you, of course you can vote now.
- 10:53[SPEAKER_06]: But so they're going to borrow the money for it.
- 10:56[SPEAKER_06]: But you know, I'm not supposed to criticize the county government, but I read something where the county's spending 4 million on security and enhancements for the welfare building, the whole series building, and which is fine, if they need them, they need them, safety employees, is inclinances important.
- 11:15[SPEAKER_06]: It's unfortunate we need that kind of stuff now, but I guess we do.
- 11:19[SPEAKER_06]: So they're going to spend 4 million, but then I read something in the news where they're
- 11:26[SPEAKER_06]: when you have over a hundred million dollar fund balance i mean that again that's like saying i got to do a four thousand dollar repair to my house and i have a hundred and four thousand twelve thousand or something my savings account but i'm gonna go get a loan no i wouldn't you know it's better to pay for as much as you can it does contain caution well spreads it out so we can hide it better
- 11:56[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, oh, there's a text message that's keep all the NFL games in the US for the safety of the players.
- 12:03[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know if they're any safer here or not.
- 12:06[SPEAKER_06]: But whatever, whatever.
- 12:10[SPEAKER_06]: Now let me just say, and I want to say this in Austin, Serity, you know, Dan is a valued caller and listener.
- 12:16[SPEAKER_06]: And we thank them for a service that the country for many, many years and for paying taxes on the South side too,
- 12:24[SPEAKER_06]: but I'm not interested in talking about the latest Trump utterance.
- 12:30[SPEAKER_06]: Sometimes we talk about a little bit of that or the January 6th or anything else.
- 12:34[SPEAKER_06]: All of those may be important to some people.
- 12:37[SPEAKER_06]: But they're not of interest to the bulk of people who listen to this show.
- 12:41[SPEAKER_06]: Now there's plenty of talk shows and podcasts and cable news shows close to close every day that you can call into and talk about those things or listen to them or something like that.
- 12:54[SPEAKER_06]: But we're not interested.
- 12:55[SPEAKER_06]: You know, I get these things on my blog.
- 12:57[SPEAKER_06]: Well, what about this?
- 12:58[SPEAKER_06]: We public and dog culture.
- 12:59[SPEAKER_06]: And Idaho was arrested for a pedophilia or something.
- 13:02[SPEAKER_06]: Like it's supposed to mean something to me.
- 13:04[SPEAKER_06]: I know.
- 13:04[SPEAKER_06]: I'm not interested in that.
- 13:07[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah, usually delete those things.
- 13:10[SPEAKER_11]: I went deleting more lately because it's just stupid stuff.
- 13:13[SPEAKER_11]: Just insults.
- 13:15[SPEAKER_06]: You know, I'm not going to run comments on that blog about our good friend, Gary, the gunner.
- 13:22[SPEAKER_06]: I haven't seen here in years, but I mean, you know, it's just stupid with some of these people right in.
- 13:30[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
- 13:32[SPEAKER_06]: Beyond stupid, right?
- 13:35[SPEAKER_06]: Well, anyway, I brought my own cable here to charge my tablet from computer, so I don't have to move Glenn's cable, that's good thing.
- 13:45[SPEAKER_06]: Ooh, don't want to do that again.
- 13:48[SPEAKER_06]: Don't want to do that again.
- 13:53[SPEAKER_06]: Now, according to seven news, they haven't decided how to pay it.
- 13:56[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, they passed the bond word.
- 13:58[SPEAKER_06]: Now, granted, you could, you know, I guess the judge has to actually approve a settlement that might take a few weeks.
- 14:06[SPEAKER_06]: So you could decide to go the other way, but they're not going to.
- 14:10[SPEAKER_06]: They're not going to.
- 14:14[SPEAKER_06]: They just said that to, you know, I don't know, make people feel good or something.
- 14:24[SPEAKER_06]: because they've been told that's why I like about this council they do is they're told and what's going on with the golf carts up in the park there was some discussion last night about golf carts and they're up the batteries are running out it old I guess it old then you golfers out there are battery golf carts better or our gas ones better
- 14:55[SPEAKER_06]: It's obvious they're going to operate the club next year because they've basically said so last night.
- 14:59[SPEAKER_06]: They keep talking about some mystery entity coming in and giving them all sorts of money which won't happen.
- 15:07[SPEAKER_06]: But what will happen is, well, buy a 50 new golf carts and somebody also get to rent the club for like $12 a year or something and I was a great deal.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_06]: 755, 1240, the phone number, if you like to give us a call to be on the show of shows today.
- 15:28[SPEAKER_06]: We'll try and talk about whatever you want, whatever you want.
- 15:35[SPEAKER_06]: We've got my picture on news junkie, that's nice.
- 15:38[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
- 15:42[SPEAKER_06]: Well, other things.
- 15:48[SPEAKER_06]: We already talked about the e-bike thing yesterday.
- 15:53[SPEAKER_06]: There's two viewpoints, there's the these people, there's Brian said on Facebook that these people were reckless, where's the accountability for these people?
- 16:03[SPEAKER_06]: And he said it was a legal distortion, what the city had to pay.
- 16:10[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
- 16:14[SPEAKER_06]: Somebody said for the long haul gas cards are more better and more reliable.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_06]: Let's get gas ones.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_06]: No green new deals up in the golf course.
- 16:23[SPEAKER_09]: Mm-hmm.
- 16:26[SPEAKER_06]: Order 50 of them for next year, 50 or 60, whatever you need, and keep a few of the electric system spares.
- 16:31[SPEAKER_06]: That's what I would do.
- 16:34[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
- 16:34[SPEAKER_06]: Of course, you really need a building to put them in.
- 16:40[SPEAKER_06]: Number last time they got in that big kerfuffle about where to put the golf carts in the winter, and oh my god, you'd think it was the end of the world.
- 16:49[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
- 16:55[SPEAKER_06]: So the only thing about the, which I thought about the subtle, and I don't know, maybe it was the best thing to do.
- 17:05[SPEAKER_06]: Because otherwise you're going to be paying, you know, if they're going to, if they are going to perfect it, so take it to court.
- 17:12[SPEAKER_06]: It's going to cost you a lot of money with an uncertain future.
- 17:15[SPEAKER_06]: I understand that argument fully.
- 17:18[SPEAKER_06]: I remember last summer.
- 17:20[SPEAKER_06]: I think it was only if somebody had some questions about the whole thing wanted to know whose idea it was and he was told very firmly, this matter is under investigation and we're not going to talk about it.
- 17:33[SPEAKER_06]: Well now that it's over in the case of settled, if we know the results of the investigation, I guess we sort of know them because
- 17:46[SPEAKER_06]: last April they removed the speed bumps and then they settled so I guess we know it was all but let's the whole thing I mean where did what was the genesis of the thing?
- 17:58[SPEAKER_06]: You know I mean I understand public works poor demand and that's their job but who ordered them up?
- 18:08[SPEAKER_06]: Was it friends of the park?
- 18:12[SPEAKER_06]: Sir sounds like it.
- 18:14[SPEAKER_06]: Some of the comments we've read.
- 18:16[SPEAKER_06]: or the planners or something like that.
- 18:20[SPEAKER_06]: But I would ask now for a complete accounting of all-speed bumps on public roads and public pavement.
- 18:31[SPEAKER_06]: And there's a weather and I think they should still be there.
- 18:34[SPEAKER_06]: You could have the same thing happen at that ramp over it, parking not by the Y, huh?
- 18:42[SPEAKER_06]: Not as likely.
- 18:45[SPEAKER_06]: But there was no need for those things.
- 18:47[SPEAKER_06]: Just put signage up, says, you know, a steep ramp goes slow.
- 18:50[SPEAKER_06]: If you don't go slow, you'll hit the guardrail.
- 18:56[SPEAKER_06]: And you'll know it.
- 18:58[SPEAKER_06]: But I don't know if there's anybody know of any other speed bumps in town here.
- 19:06[SPEAKER_06]: Good afternoon around the air.
- 19:08[SPEAKER_03]: after noon there.
- 19:10[SPEAKER_03]: It's up and I just wanted to say about two topics about the park.
- 19:14[SPEAKER_03]: One is the golf course.
- 19:16[SPEAKER_03]: That can be the zoo, both same thing.
- 19:19[SPEAKER_03]: The city taxpayers are subsidizing it.
- 19:22[SPEAKER_03]: The zoo is getting grants which is a besides what the city is paying.
- 19:29[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody that doesn't even live in the city is getting the where does it think they get the grant money from?
- 19:36[SPEAKER_03]: And in the scoff course, they're supposed to be self-sufficiency.
- 19:41[SPEAKER_06]: I don't think anybody ever.
- 19:42[SPEAKER_03]: And they're not.
- 19:44[SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely good not.
- 19:47[SPEAKER_06]: Well, no, it's not.
- 19:48[SPEAKER_06]: I mean, everything about it subsides from the course itself to the clubhouse.
- 19:54[SPEAKER_06]: I mean, it's all subsides by the taxpayer.
- 19:56[SPEAKER_06]: But I don't think anybody really expected it to be quote self-sufficient.
- 20:00[SPEAKER_06]: I don't expect any department and government to be self-sufficient.
- 20:05[SPEAKER_06]: That's why government runs them.
- 20:08[SPEAKER_03]: But why I understand that, but like say if you go to West Gets Beach, you pay a fee, you pay this fee to camp, you pay this much to go sit on the beach, you stuff like that.
- 20:19[SPEAKER_03]: I think they're pretty close to self-sufficient, pretty guys, it's more long than do whatever they do for the, you know what I mean, stop keeping stuff.
- 20:28[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I don't know if that's true, I mean, you might think it is.
- 20:33[SPEAKER_06]: And I don't know what the fees are to get in there or anything else.
- 20:35[SPEAKER_06]: So I don't know nothing about it.
- 20:38[SPEAKER_06]: As far as the golf course, I don't think that was ever expected.
- 20:41[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, I know, but then everybody's, they shouldn't even got into it.
- 20:46[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody's other than, like, pay for it.
- 20:48[SPEAKER_03]: I don't have to stay for it specifically.
- 20:51[SPEAKER_03]: But unless they get grants, which instead goes to the zoo, but then that comes out of whatever they take out of my chat for the state or wherever it comes from.
- 21:01[SPEAKER_03]: or federal tax, I mean, I don't know, I sure really didn't have grants for them and everything else, but yeah, okay, all right, I don't know.
- 21:10[SPEAKER_03]: Well, I don't know.
- 21:11[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:12[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:12[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:13[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:14[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:14[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:16[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:17[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:17[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:18[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know.
- 21:18[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
- 21:19[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
- 21:19[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
- 21:23[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but that's peanut that's and everybody got him and besides that immediately I'm saying somebody coming to put stupid black cigarettes up and everything Mm-hmm.
- 21:33[SPEAKER_03]: It was ridiculous Yeah, foul.
- 21:36[SPEAKER_03]: She don't even get me going.
- 21:37[SPEAKER_03]: All right.
- 21:38[SPEAKER_06]: No, I don't know.
- 21:39[SPEAKER_06]: Bye Somebody says mayor what are your thoughts on the sidewalk rumble strips put in place for the handicapped I know that those curb cuts they put it isn't that for the
- 21:50[SPEAKER_06]: No, little bumps aren't those, isn't that more for the blind so they can know it's an intersection or something?
- 21:58[SPEAKER_11]: I don't know if they're safe in the rain or so.
- 21:59[SPEAKER_06]: I really don't know.
- 22:00[SPEAKER_06]: I can't guarantee absolute safety on anything.
- 22:05[SPEAKER_06]: And that's, you know, the argument back and forth on this thing.
- 22:10[SPEAKER_11]: I mean, Whose fault was it or whatever?
- 22:16[SPEAKER_06]: But if it's smell trouble with this case early on, especially within days, they move the signs at said speed bump and they refuse comment on anything and all of that, so you know they had a problem.
- 22:30[SPEAKER_06]: And they told the council at that time, keep your mouth shut about this because, you know, we're going to end up paying.
- 22:38[SPEAKER_06]: Now, it could be argued, the argument, there's a solid argument, remember when our friend Cliff Holy,
- 22:45[SPEAKER_06]: made it public that he had referred a constituent complaint about the bumps to city staff prior to the accident if he hadn't done that i don't know what they still have the inclination to sue that made it pretty obvious that there is prior notice prior notice is the issue on this whether it's a pop hole and that we want to retire or whether it's uh... a speed bump that kills you prior notice is the issue if you have it
- 23:13[SPEAKER_06]: and you have an addressed it build a pothole or put a cone on it or done something or in this case at least on us, you know put out some kind of report on it we've done a report on it from these speed bumps or healthy for the community or whatever but yeah i don't think there was anything done but you know it was only only submit so much written material of a third floor who can read it off
- 23:39[SPEAKER_06]: He's got foil request.
- 23:41[SPEAKER_06]: He's got this.
- 23:42[SPEAKER_07]: He wants requests for that.
- 23:43[SPEAKER_07]: He's a funerer for the bath house.
- 23:46[SPEAKER_06]: You know, what are you going to do?
- 23:48[SPEAKER_06]: You can't respond to everything a council member asks.
- 23:52[SPEAKER_06]: You know, a little bet goes a long way with those people.
- 23:55[SPEAKER_06]: They're just sort of ceremony all positions anyway.
- 23:57[SPEAKER_13]: Really?
- 23:58[SPEAKER_11]: Yeah.
- 23:58[SPEAKER_06]: They really don't serve much of a function.
- 24:06[SPEAKER_06]: No.
- 24:07[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know.
- 24:10[SPEAKER_06]: But, you know, we got one employee on the third floor who spends all her time on foil requests.
- 24:19[SPEAKER_06]: At least, only was there.
- 24:21[SPEAKER_06]: It's all she did all day, was we spawned a freedom of information requests.
- 24:26[SPEAKER_06]: You can't waste money on that all the time.
- 24:29[SPEAKER_06]: The public doesn't need to know that bad.
- 24:31[SPEAKER_07]: But after duty on the air, yeah, Jeff, it took two races in our area, 21st and 24th
- 24:40[SPEAKER_07]: You know, we talk about the 21st year a lot because it used to be in the water count basically our area And now we have a Claudia 10 years down the 24th, but just to there's two races I think one thing that the voters should really put out front when they're talking to these candidates Or they go to the town all meeting or whatever They should ask the people Who do you want in office someone to serve in the majority?
- 25:09[SPEAKER_07]: or someone to be continues in the minority and what can we do if we're in the majority party which the Democrats were to take in November overall.
- 25:19[SPEAKER_05]: Right.
- 25:19[SPEAKER_07]: Having a candidate and elected official in the minority party is not going to be much better if you have the 21st or the 24th district.
- 25:28[SPEAKER_07]: So I was being hammering on that point because it's pretty obvious that the Democrats want to take control of the House and make it.
- 25:36[SPEAKER_06]: Right.
- 25:38[SPEAKER_06]: Well, I suspect they are, but the voters have really two choices and any of these elections.
- 25:45[SPEAKER_06]: You vote for the person you like or do you vote in a parliamentary fashion to get the party you want?
- 25:52[SPEAKER_06]: And it's not necessarily always the same thing.
- 25:54[SPEAKER_06]: You know, you may like one candidate, but you may not want Hakim Jeffery's a speaker.
- 26:02[SPEAKER_06]: You know what I mean?
- 26:07[SPEAKER_07]: of the two candidates that are running on the GOP side, you know.
- 26:11[SPEAKER_06]: I would tend to vote.
- 26:13[SPEAKER_06]: I would tend to vote in a parliamentary sense to keep the Republicans in charge, just like you would vote for a Democrat to get the Democrats in charge.
- 26:21[SPEAKER_06]: Now, that doesn't matter.
- 26:23[SPEAKER_06]: It's possible I like one candidate more than the other.
- 26:25[SPEAKER_07]: That's what the Republicans run on keeping the power.
- 26:28[SPEAKER_06]: You know, it's a funny thing about these races.
- 26:30[SPEAKER_06]: Now, we're the largest city in the 24th district,
- 26:36[SPEAKER_06]: in the primary or in the general has never reached out to the banner anybody else.
- 26:41[SPEAKER_06]: And the same thing through this clown that's running eclimbs he's a right-in candidate named Schmidt.
- 26:47[SPEAKER_06]: And that hold down a double you're NYT gave him five percent of the vote, which I don't think was legit.
- 26:53[SPEAKER_06]: But again he's somebody who could have just made a simple phone call and gotten.
- 26:57[SPEAKER_06]: Exposure to hundreds of people, but they don't do it.
- 27:00[SPEAKER_06]: I mean, these people who step out on their front porch and say, I'm running for Congress, but have absolutely no means to run for Congress are a joke.
- 27:10[SPEAKER_06]: Now, in the case of GenDB and Constantine, I think they both have the Jews.
- 27:16[SPEAKER_06]: In the case of Tenny and Elman, is that an abyselman?
- 27:27[SPEAKER_07]: I'm sure she, and I'm sure she's up and I think that's an important thing that she shouldn't be doing right now.
- 27:32[SPEAKER_06]: So maybe she's going to be picking up at the high year right now.
- 27:44[SPEAKER_06]: Well, you know how you win.
- 27:46[SPEAKER_06]: Politics isn't anything else, but politics, especially, you know, everybody complains about the media.
- 27:52[SPEAKER_06]: Don't complain about him in September.
- 27:54[SPEAKER_06]: You have to build relationships.
- 27:55[SPEAKER_06]: I'm not saying the media is there to be your friend, or by any means, they're not going to be.
- 27:59[SPEAKER_06]: But you should be out meeting news directors, editors, publishers, all those people, well, ahead of time, so that when you do want more publicity, you can get it, and so there's something goes wrong, they aren't going to hammer you as hard.
- 28:13[SPEAKER_06]: Now, if I've got a candidate who I've never met, never seen, never talked to, and I hear something bad about, I'm not gonna show no mercy, but if I know the person, I might look at it differently.
- 28:27[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, well, I think that's the important point too.
- 28:31[SPEAKER_07]: I know a little bit back on here since I ran from the office a couple of times.
- 28:34[SPEAKER_07]: I got wacky because I already guess you've got a job too.
- 28:38[SPEAKER_07]: So, that's the point as I enjoy growing.
- 28:42[SPEAKER_07]: But the fact is, we don't know much about either, but in our area, 24th, right against Kenny, I don't like Kenny at all because she's on the right in Trump's hip pocket.
- 28:56[SPEAKER_07]: This element seems to be fairly independent and seems like she's going to be a good candidate.
- 29:01[SPEAKER_07]: She's going to have to get out.
- 29:03[SPEAKER_06]: Well, you gotta, let's make it, let's make it clear.
- 29:06[SPEAKER_06]: It may as Alman probably is a nice person and all of that.
- 29:10[SPEAKER_06]: But her first act on January 3rd will be to vote for Hockey and Treffrey's a speaker.
- 29:17[SPEAKER_06]: You gotta remember that.
- 29:18[SPEAKER_06]: Now, if you want that, that's fine and apparently you do.
- 29:21[SPEAKER_06]: But you gotta consider that and you're gonna get endless impeachment resolutions and there's a whole bunch of things that will come with it.
- 29:28[SPEAKER_06]: And it should DSA, I don't know.
- 29:32[SPEAKER_06]: How much he buys in it?
- 29:34[SPEAKER_07]: I just want to toss that subject out there because those are just kind of kind of influenced a lot of the way people think.
- 29:39[SPEAKER_06]: Now you see, I want to get rid of the Senate too, just like the DSA, but that's because I don't like our two senators.
- 29:50[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, they've been here for a long time.
- 29:52[SPEAKER_07]: I've got some thoughts on all that.
- 29:54[SPEAKER_07]: Anyway, I just want to toss it on the table and it's a local issue.
- 29:58[SPEAKER_06]: All right, well, thank you.
- 29:59[SPEAKER_06]: Appreciate it.
- 30:00[SPEAKER_06]: Thanks, Dan.
- 30:01[SPEAKER_06]: All right, Danny Francis, man about town, man near a golf course, yep, he sees it every day.
- 30:12[SPEAKER_06]: So anyway, we're against football outside the U.S., think the city should get rid of trees between the sidewalk and the road when they're dead.
- 30:21[SPEAKER_06]: I do think that's the case.
- 30:24[SPEAKER_06]: And
- 30:27[SPEAKER_06]: that people keep their mushrooms in a drug raid on them.
- 30:30[SPEAKER_06]: How those could you put those on a hamburger or would they be out right there?
- 30:38[SPEAKER_06]: I see Dodge, the car company's going to come reintroduce the Charger police car.
- 30:44[SPEAKER_06]: It'll have a, you know, a double fuel and checked it.
- 30:48[SPEAKER_06]: Hammy, whatever one else.
- 30:52[SPEAKER_06]: And then they'll all have to go out and buy those.
- 30:57[SPEAKER_06]: So we'll act to buy all new cars.
- 30:59[SPEAKER_06]: The SUVs will be out to do it.
- 31:03[SPEAKER_11]: Let's see what else is going on.
- 31:04[SPEAKER_11]: Council, I don't know what else Council is.
- 31:07[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, they talked crime a bit last night.
- 31:12[SPEAKER_06]: Like, wow, I don't know.
- 31:13[SPEAKER_06]: They talked about neighborhood watch at six different districts and all of this stuff.
- 31:17[SPEAKER_06]: I don't think people aren't going to do that.
- 31:21[SPEAKER_06]: People just want to be left alone.
- 31:28[SPEAKER_06]: But Dr. Kimbal said, the big problem are drivers.
- 31:31[SPEAKER_06]: He said, there's lousy drivers in this town.
- 31:33[SPEAKER_06]: It's speed, Nick.
- 31:35[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, got to do something about it.
- 31:40[SPEAKER_06]: We want to do about it.
- 31:42[SPEAKER_06]: Well, no, I don't know either.
- 31:45[SPEAKER_06]: He said they were his streets getting repaved.
- 31:49[SPEAKER_06]: I've street.
- 31:51[SPEAKER_06]: And they got it.
- 31:52[SPEAKER_06]: They got it milled down.
- 31:53[SPEAKER_06]: And he says people are speeding through there to beat the band.
- 31:58[SPEAKER_06]: Well, I tend to think those signs that light up what speed you are say, slow down, thank you or whatever, and they cross the little money, but I think it's a lot less than all the alternatives about taking tickets and all of that stuff.
- 32:17[SPEAKER_06]: You know, if you drive and buy the high school and that thing comes on, says you're doing too fast, you need to go with that fast, it should slow down.
- 32:25[SPEAKER_06]: Some people don't.
- 32:27[SPEAKER_06]: in which case they don't care anyway.
- 32:30[SPEAKER_06]: But a reminder like that's a good thing.
- 32:32[SPEAKER_06]: Now some people prefer the let's set up speed traps and do that.
- 32:37[SPEAKER_06]: That's the old standby, but I'm not.
- 32:41[SPEAKER_06]: Here's a text.
- 32:42[SPEAKER_06]: If the assistant city manager handles FOIA and the secretary does this.
- 32:47[SPEAKER_06]: Yum, it's update.
- 32:54[SPEAKER_06]: What does the rag do?
- 32:55[SPEAKER_06]: That's Mr. Waggoner.
- 32:56[SPEAKER_06]: You shouldn't call him the wagg.
- 32:58[SPEAKER_06]: I mean, it's short of round.
- 32:59[SPEAKER_06]: Well, I don't know.
- 33:00[SPEAKER_06]: Is that offensive?
- 33:01[SPEAKER_06]: I don't think it is, really?
- 33:03[SPEAKER_11]: People call me names.
- 33:07[SPEAKER_06]: I don't know what he does, really.
- 33:10[SPEAKER_06]: He manages the city.
- 33:14[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
- 33:15[SPEAKER_06]: So, 755-1240, the phone number, good afternoon around here.
- 33:18[SPEAKER_28]: Yeah, you brought up a couple of things that I completely agree with, I think the city should quit spending money on or however they do at planting trees between the sidewalk and the road.
- 33:28[SPEAKER_28]: That's ridiculous.
- 33:30[SPEAKER_28]: They put some in here that don't even grow, they die in a couple of years later.
- 33:35[SPEAKER_28]: They have to take them out because they can't grow into a gas line very well, put it that way.
- 33:40[SPEAKER_28]: Anyway, the other thing is, Dr. Kimbal brought up about the L.C.
- 33:44[SPEAKER_28]: drivers in the city and yes, they are.
- 33:47[SPEAKER_28]: live in an area he was talking about in the speeding in the area is absolutely ridiculous mm-hmm the other we were out a couple of weeks ago and within an hour we had two people pass us on city streets and they were going 45 we were going 30 mm-hmm and one of them was going up to go some street hill towards the park and you have no clue why they needed to go buy you because the speed limits 30 miles away
- 34:17[SPEAKER_28]: on city street signs and speed limit signs in the neighborhoods or something than what they have.
- 34:23[SPEAKER_28]: I'm not even talking about the ones that cost money.
- 34:25[SPEAKER_28]: I'm talking about the ones you put in the ground instead of trees they need speed limit signs.
- 34:30[SPEAKER_06]: I kind of agree with it there yeah.
- 34:32[SPEAKER_06]: So you are to take care of it.
- 34:34[SPEAKER_28]: So you're trees were dead?
- 34:39[SPEAKER_28]: Some of the street words, yeah, I don't have any in front of my house.
- 34:42[SPEAKER_28]: I call them and so please don't put a tree here.
- 34:45[SPEAKER_28]: So
- 34:47[SPEAKER_06]: You can't opt out really I didn't know that yeah, you can you see the trees on our street were put in back Oh a long time ago.
- 34:55[SPEAKER_28]: Yeah, well now you get a letter telling you Supposedly get a letter telling you that they're gonna put a tree in and you can call them and say don't put a tree in and then you have to Well, I you don't want one Yeah, I'm all for trees, but I don't think was
- 35:11[SPEAKER_06]: necessarily put a miss between the sidewalk and a road maybe there are certain instances where that works uh... with certain types of trees but you know right now we've got ones that are up in the wires the one next door mine from my property i'm like if it were in front of my property and i'd have somebody out there with a chainsaw right plus a the ones they put in years ago or even the sidewalks really badly and apparently nobody from the city will take any responsibility to
- 35:42[UNKNOWN]: fix the sidewalk that the tree has heaved.
- 35:45[SPEAKER_06]: Of course not, that's you're supposed to be your response to the old.
- 35:47[SPEAKER_06]: Your problem, yeah.
- 35:48[SPEAKER_06]: Even though it isn't they tell you in the letter unknown, we'll take care of it and we'll turn that and we'll do what stuff.
- 35:54[SPEAKER_28]: Well, they pay somebody a fortune to go around the city and trim them all summer.
- 35:58[SPEAKER_06]: Mm-hmm.
- 35:59[SPEAKER_28]: Why are you going to do that?
- 36:00[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
- 36:02[SPEAKER_28]: The free trees end up costing money in the end, we'll put it that way.
- 36:06[SPEAKER_06]: Exactly.
- 36:06[SPEAKER_06]: Exactly.
- 36:07[SPEAKER_06]: All right, well thank you so much.

- 39:28[SPEAKER_11]: Hey, Jeff Graham.
- 39:29[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, what's up?
- 39:29[SPEAKER_11]: Well, I was just listening to Danny.
- 39:33[SPEAKER_11]: Here's my thoughts on Tom Centino.
- 39:36[SPEAKER_06]: Hmm.
- 39:43[SPEAKER_11]: who are a total Trump, yes, people.
- 39:46[SPEAKER_11]: Right.
- 39:48[SPEAKER_11]: They go along with what everybody say, as long as, along with the whole Mike Johnson Congress, given their power, they've given up all their power to the president.
- 39:58[SPEAKER_13]: Right.
- 39:58[SPEAKER_11]: The power to, for tariffs, power for war, not you've got a guy, Constitino running who built a statue to the president.
- 40:08[SPEAKER_11]: Do you want to live, I mean, you, you want, you ask about the no kings,
- 40:13[SPEAKER_11]: But you want to Congress to check the president.
- 40:18[SPEAKER_06]: Well, I'd love to have somebody make a statue of me, but I'd be very flattered.
- 40:24[SPEAKER_06]: But yeah, I don't know.
- 40:26[SPEAKER_06]: I thought the statue was a bit much.
- 40:30[SPEAKER_06]: And, you know, just like with Trump, there's things that guy says that I scratch my head over on the other hand.
- 40:36[SPEAKER_06]: I look at it as they said in the parliamentary sense, to I want the Democrats in charge of the house with constant impeachment resolutions and a human speaker, and all that, I'm not sure that's what I want either.
- 40:49[SPEAKER_11]: Well, as far as impeachment goes, the guy has definitely committed crimes.
- 41:00[SPEAKER_11]: you know they went after well will you be going to be in crime family yeah when the democrats get control a congress uh... two billion dollars you made last year there's going to be investigations uh... uh... i mean so what about the uh... some of the needs to hold them to account are you going to go to the agenda this congress is just laid down are you going to go to the agenda being the vat on sunday and car
- 41:31[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, but if you want to support your candidate, you got to stroke your track, you know, that's important.
- 41:35[SPEAKER_11]: No, I got to go to the ballot and pull a button.
- 41:38[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, really?

- 46:23[SPEAKER_06]: you should invest in your local public officials, look at the problems in the town or water town right now.
- 46:30[SPEAKER_06]: Because it's jobs, nobody wants.

- 46:37[SPEAKER_06]: No, they should be, many communities do that.
- 46:42[SPEAKER_06]: And but up here, it's like everybody, and then we continue to see more and more power to unelected bureaucrats, we don't live here and don't, you know,
- 46:54[SPEAKER_06]: You know, you can say all roads lead the water town, but that doesn't mean that everybody who works for water town leaves on one of those roads every day, but that's what we've created So with all due respect to the gentlemen, he raises some good points on policy, but contribute to your campaigns But after you're on the air Hey, doing good.

- 48:48[SPEAKER_13]: spreads a bunch of his regular stuff.
- 48:51[SPEAKER_13]: And then he gets a little cheerleader who calls in afterwards and says, I agree with him, I love him, I love him, I love him.
- 49:00[SPEAKER_13]: Well, they're doing the same thing on your block, but he posts below me and then 12 minutes later that the same guy reports in that he thinks he made sense.
- 49:12[SPEAKER_13]: You know, it's supposed to cheerlead your own posts, but they did they do it.
- 49:19[SPEAKER_13]: who's the guy who doesn't like you the problem as a day in the other guy there that called in the cheerlead as you guys have lied too much you lied about laptops you lied about using the justice system to go after certain people you know you lied about so many things and your problem your real
- 49:46[SPEAKER_13]: that you're going to tell the truth this time around and you know you haven't done that for years and we haven't seen it for years the open border thing just destroyed this country and we're going to be dealing with that for decades you know not that everybody's a criminal don't don't play the cry baby game if it's not that you can't let 20 million people into the country
- 50:13[SPEAKER_13]: and then lie about it like both of those previous colors have done again and again and say that the border is secure you can't do that you've lied about so much you have no credibility left you know and you know and to go after you know yeah that's exactly what was the only thing you're gonna get is if you if you get more democrats or whatever run in run in congress you're gonna get is uh...

- 51:20[SPEAKER_13]: It'd be, you've lied about so much.

- 51:30[SPEAKER_13]: You know, you gotta tell the truth once in a while.
- 51:34[SPEAKER_13]: You know, you're killed as long as you're credibility.
- 51:36[SPEAKER_13]: And I think that's what they've done.
- 51:38[SPEAKER_06]: So what do you think of all of our other stories here in the city?
- 51:41[SPEAKER_06]: Anything?
- 51:43[SPEAKER_13]: Uh-huh.
- 51:44[SPEAKER_13]: Well, I'll tell you that bump, that speed bump was outrageous.
- 51:49[SPEAKER_13]: Whether you put it in or not, I don't know.
- 51:51[SPEAKER_13]: But it was so high.
- 51:53[SPEAKER_13]: It was like putting a curve in the middle of the road.
- 51:57[SPEAKER_13]: It was improperly designed, improperly installed, and foolishly decided to put in there.
- 52:04[SPEAKER_13]: And, you know, it was horrible.
- 52:08[SPEAKER_13]: and, you know, you had to come to a complete stop and crawl over the wall.
- 52:13[SPEAKER_13]: It was just like a curb.
- 52:15[SPEAKER_06]: Well, it's funny though, they...
- 52:16[SPEAKER_13]: Anybody in the right mind could have put that in there and dribbin away.
- 52:20[SPEAKER_06]: But who?
- 52:21[SPEAKER_06]: But somebody did put it in there and we don't know who.
- 52:25[SPEAKER_13]: Well, it shows you what kind of control, you know, that's the last cheerleader called there.
- 52:33[SPEAKER_13]: If it comes down to,
- 52:36[SPEAKER_13]: you know who you don't have any control over anything you don't know whether your schools are doing this or that you don't know how they're spending their money you know you don't know and if it's now gotten worse just shut up pay your taxes keep your mouth shut maybe that's some area that we could all agree on but this there's no there's no um... accountability about anything
- 53:05[SPEAKER_13]: That's just the way we seem to want it.
- 53:07[SPEAKER_13]: We, we love our teachers union.
- 53:09[SPEAKER_13]: We want them to be happy.
- 53:11[SPEAKER_13]: So we don't ask questions.
- 53:12[SPEAKER_13]: And if we did it, what do is any good?
- 53:14[SPEAKER_13]: We don't know.
- 53:16[SPEAKER_06]: Yeah.
- 53:16[SPEAKER_13]: And it's not the union or it's not the teachers.
- 53:20[SPEAKER_13]: Don't cry baby, I mean, like in the little fire department does.
- 53:24[SPEAKER_13]: It's not you.
- 53:25[SPEAKER_13]: It's your union who's active.
- 53:28[SPEAKER_13]: Don't.
- 53:29[SPEAKER_13]: And making you look like idiots.
- 53:31[SPEAKER_13]: We spent one in the universe with education spending, and our kids can't figure out.
- 53:40[SPEAKER_06]: Well, clearly the unions are effective though on behalf of those workers.
- 53:43[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, that's the argument that they are very effective, and it's a situation that's amazing.
- 53:50[SPEAKER_13]: And we say we love our kids, but our kids are coming out.
- 53:54[SPEAKER_13]: I mean, here there's one very unprepared.
- 53:56[SPEAKER_06]: One school district on an Indian reservation wanted to...
- 54:00[SPEAKER_13]: by a robot to help out with uh... you know teaching or something the teachers union said no in the state said no with it well they're not the teachers union again the teacher union is not interested in this they're interested in patting their own things so they can move to florida after they retire and it's it's just you know i mean
- 54:24[SPEAKER_13]: you don't again getting back to what I said you don't have any input you don't have any accountability you can't do anything it's just like look at that sure up down there Madison County Madison County which decided that oh we're gonna bend over for Kathy Huckle that's the same group of people that put that airhead in there the guy with the bones who is most
