I got so many guests to talk to you about as well. There's going

2:15
We'll talk about that. Metro New state Wide Correspondent Brad Mcalhenny's going to

Monday. Brad and I are going to talk about that, plus Governatorial Canada
2:25
Chris Miller is going to be by a little bit later on as well.
2:30
You've heard me talking on the show here recently about some things that are being
2:36
discussed as it pertains to public outdoor drinking and the Charleston area. It's been
2:42
talked about just goes on in other cities and it's called PODA, and we're
2:46
going to get in exactly what that means. Chad Robinson is a city councilor
2:51
out of Ward twenty and he joins us right now. He's all on board
2:53
for this. Chad, good morning, how are you sir? Thanks day
2:55
for having me again. Last time we're here, I think we're talking turf.
2:59
Oh yes, we were. Well today we're talking not not kids,
3:02
the furthest thing from it why is this being discussed or where did it come
3:07
from? And I'm gonna because I talked about it on a couple times on
3:10
the show Councilman, and we had a couple of tax people I think had
3:14
some concerns about it's being proposed that certain areas, certain folks, certain businesses
3:20
would be allowed to to drink in public in Charleston. But now it's not
3:25
as bad as it sounds. So break it down if this comes into being
3:30
what it would be. Yeah, this is uh. Sometimes it gets overblown,
3:34
but this is a podas private outdoor designated areas. This was passed by
3:38
the Western Legislature this year in a full ABCA omnibus bill. I followed it
3:46
throughout the session. This is not a partisan issue. This is something that
3:52
is important for our downtown businesses. Not only our downtown businesses, but for
3:57
the podas that are drafted in the current bill is city Center, Downtown,
4:02
Elk City, Bridge Road, and the Capital Market. So what this what
4:09
it does is basically allows anyone to purchase an alcoholic beverage or non alcoholic beverage
4:15
in an establishment in a PODA location and carry in a designated cup outside.
4:23
Okay, So you know, take from one area, from one restaurant to
4:28
another. Give us an example, and maybe just use the downtown because that
4:31
may be an area that more people are familiar with. How would this work.
4:34
People come downtown for an art walk, or people come downtown for you
4:38
know, any number of things. Just give us an example. You and
4:41
I are just hanging out, Chad, we go into let's go to five
4:46
Street, and we order a beer and we decide we want to purchase a
4:50
cup. Because it has to be in a specially designated cup. We would
4:54
get our cup there from from five Street and then we would be able to
4:57
and just kind of take it from there. Sure, that's a Let's think
5:00
Friday, the friday when the Capitol Street or shut down, will go into
5:04
Fife Street by an adult beverage in a designated cup. All those UH restaurants
5:12
or bars will have designated cups that they you purchase by by a beer drink,
5:19
walk down Fife Street the alley, enjoy your beverage, walk into Adelphia,
5:27
have another drink. That's it. It's in designated areas. You can't
5:30
go outside those areas. Now, you cannot go outside those areas, and
5:32
it has to be in the designated cups. So it's not you're not gonna
5:34
be able to run into your local store, or you're not gonna be able
5:39
to show up, you know, with a with a with a Coors lighter
5:42
or whatever and walk down the street. That's not the way this works.
5:44
It has to be in the especially designated areas. And this is something that
5:49
I think the majority of businesses have asked for in downtown Charleston. Absolutely,
5:55
this is not something we've come up with own our own. You wouldn't be
5:59
doing this. You and I talked for sure, you wouldn't be doing this
6:00
that the business people I can come to you and ask, well, this
6:01
is something that you know, we we've always since I've been on council for
6:05
almost six years now, we're looking for events, We're looking for options.
6:11
We're looking for things that we can enhance that let our restaurants and businesses downtown
6:16
enhance their business. This is that option. It's nothing more than giving them
6:23
the customers and another option. And actually, you know, my thing is
6:29
it's not always best to be first and passing ordinances and things like that.
6:33
Huntington's passed one already. We've taken our time on this ordinance about a month
6:40
now. I've had two meetings already in my Ordinance and Rules Committee, uh,
6:45
and we're going to meet again October two to take up the drafted legislation.
6:50
Also too, we've included all downtown businesses and retail establishments. They're actually
6:55
meeting tomorrow morning at nine am to discuss it further. We're open to making
7:00
changes to allow our businesses to use this option to help them with bringing more
7:06
customers to downtown area. And where is the meeting? Go to me to
7:09
where I want. It's at Adelphia Sports Bar at nine am for the Retail
7:14
and Business Association, so anybody can show up that owns a business or whatever
7:17
talking about that. What has been the response from from the public, Because
7:20
I know this was I've talked about it on the show just a little bit.
7:24
I know the Gazette mailed at an article on it. It's been all
7:28
over you know, the social media. What has the response been from the
7:30
public so far. I've had nothing but positive comments. I've not received well,
7:35
I actually see one negative, but it wasn't really a negative, just
7:39
a hey, Chad, look at this, and you know this gives we
7:43
talk We talked about the downtown City Center. But this also gives the option
7:47
to Elk City Area. There's a PODA creator for there the Bridge Road during
7:51
one of their events up there. And then Capital Market with Evan We've talked
7:57
about that one too, But it's just another option for our businesses to bring
8:01
more customers to downtown Charleston. And again, what is the enforcement going to
8:05
look like on this? I mean, because you know you said, Okay,
8:09
I can't if I if I get a bear, you mentioned five Street,
8:11
if I get a beer, I can't go outside the designated areas.
8:16
So I mean, are you are you? Are you concerned? I guess
8:18
I would say, uh that because the Charleston Police Department is going to have
8:22
to enforce this, that maybe a little bit a little bit taxing to them.
8:24
Have you have you heard from them? What doesn't do? I have
8:28
no issues with allowing CPD and public works in our In our ordinance UH that's
8:35
drafted. Each PODA has UH requirements regarding CPDU and public works downtown up to
8:46
four and four CPD officers and two public works during the time of the podas
8:52
open. It's no different than think of Live on the Levey, think you
8:56
our Capital street closed. Our officers are there now. This is not going
9:00
to add any more duties to their their their day or nights. And as
9:05
you mentioned Huntington, I spend a lot of time in Ohio, Mariette,
9:09
Ohio particularly and in Marietta. This has gone on for some time because I
9:13
first saw the signs that called it Dora up there and it's designated outdoor Recreation
9:16
Area, I guess, or something like that, and I saw the signs
9:20
of my wife and I were up there, like what the heck is Dora?
9:22
And I had to look at it. Also, there's several places outside
9:26
Columbus that do this well. In some of the some of the areas outside
9:30
Columbus it also goes on. And again I think it's important to know people
9:33
can't just walk down the street councilman with their with their bottles. So that's
9:37
not the way this works. And it's in a specially designated area. And
9:41
if somebody you know, is walking down the street carrying a bottle of whiskey
9:46
or beer or whatever and it's not in the cup, then they're gonna paste
9:48
consequences for that. That's absolutely right. We will have designated cups, could
9:52
be color coordinated, could be clear with certain logos, but it'll be designated
9:58
cups that they must carry in these specific areas only, and enforcement will be
10:03
tight at first, I believe, and you know, I think the downtown
10:05
business would want that, and you're going want this to go outside of what
10:11
the rule says, and I think it's good. It's good for our businesses.
10:15
It's it's something that gives them an option to work together to build more
10:20
customer based downtown. So I guess you're asking businesses in the area that one
10:26
and you've already talked to most of them. Again, they're the ones that
10:28
ask for this. And it is important to note that this was something that
10:31
was passed by the legislature and you mentioned it being nonpartisan. This was a
10:35
Republican legislature that passed it. So we don't want to turn this into a
10:39
Democrat versus Republican liberal conservative thing. This was the Republican legislature that pat that
10:43
made this legal in Westvigia. Yeah, this is not a partisan bill.
10:46
Actually, Senator Eric Nelson helped us on the Senate, and Delegate Kelly Young
10:50
helped us in the House, and many other Knall County legislators helped us with
10:54
this. It's it's not partisan at all. You care to take a couple
10:58
of texts, You have a couple text weight done here Texas. This council
11:01
person's previously question any discussion in relation to regulations on camping in relation to the
11:09
virgin and the homelessness problem in the Charleston the city of Charleston faces. Why
11:13
does he feel it's more important that the art walk participants enjoy their beverage instead
11:16
of dealing with a homeless problem that isn't being addressed this that's two separate issues.
11:20
It's a homeless issue is a totally separate issue from this for helping our
11:24
businesses. I believe we've seen that the Charleston Police Department has taken care of
11:31
some of our homeless issues. It's not a Charleston issue for homelessness. This
11:33
is a nationally seen issue that's across the country and many many of our cities
11:41
in West Virginia are having the same exact problem for homelessness. And another text
11:46
says, will there be a sign that says don't walk past here with your
11:48
drink? Yes, that's that's what's It's a great text. Yes, there'll
11:52
be signage on all entrances and exits of the PODA areas. We're talking about
11:58
what hype of signagists possibly at our meeting, we had over fifteen different businesses
12:05
at our meeting last Thursday, and some of us like, maybe it's on
12:09
the street where you're entering or exiting, or it's on the on the post
12:13
when you're entering or extra destiting. That's the way I've seen it in other
12:16
cities. That's when I first saw the science I talked about Texas Dave are
12:20
The business is going to have to pay for the cups and will they guarantee
12:24
availability? That's that's being discussed. Uh. We believe that the first round
12:28
of cups will be purchased by the city, designated and designed by the city,
12:33
but going forward it could be a business uh issue. So let me
12:39
just say, let's just say it's in one of these designated areas downtown and
12:43
I own a business and I don't want people to come in. Can I
12:48
put a sign up that says I'm not taking part or whatever, no alcoholic
12:54
beverage is allowed. I could do that absolutely. Only those who as an
12:58
application process with the city and with ABCA to be included in the PODA.
13:03
And if a business does not want to participate, they don't have to persic
13:05
and so they don't pay. They don't pay the fee. They don't because
13:09
the business will be paining, it will be paying for this small and and
13:11
it's and it's it's again, it's it's if they choose to, they don't
13:15
have to, that's right. And so they could put signs up, you
13:18
know, I could just see it now with a beer and a circle a
13:20
line drawn through it or something that says that says that you can't come in
13:22
here. All right, So what are the what's the timeline again? You're
13:24
gonna have this meetia tomorrow morning of business people at nine o'clock at Adelphia Business
13:30
or mean, myself and the city manager will attend just to answer any questions
13:35
and hopefully we have some changes to the drafted bill eight zero one three and
13:41
that will be on our my agenda for five o'clock Monday, uh right before
13:48
Finance, Accordance and rulesfully and Council. If we could get it out of
13:52
our committee on Monday, it'll be on full council for a Monday night.
13:58
Right. Well, well, we should the best to lock regardless of what
14:01
happens, because I know, again this is something that the City of Charleston,
14:03
I mean, based on what I have been told by you and by
14:07
some of the business people, is that they've asked for this. It's going
14:09
on in other cities. There haven't been any problems that I'm aware of.
14:13
And Honeyton I know because as I said, I spent a lot of time
14:15
at Mariette, Ohio. There's not been any issues there. I mean,
14:18
so you know, but it's enforcement if you've got If it does get out
14:22
of hand, you can as just crack some heads, not literally get it's
14:24
taken care of. I'm open to help in our businesses any way possible.

I did not get to ask him that on the air, but on
17:48
his way out the door, I did ask him. They're gonna do sixteen
17:52
ounce cups. That's what they would be. They can go up to eighteen,
17:53
but it would be sixteen ounce cups. Tech says we should not be

18:12
necessarily in that order of the Valkyries. Ladies Club invite you for the third
18:18
annual Think Pink Ride. That's happening, happening that is the Sunday, with
18:22
proceeds benefiting the c AFC Breast Center. Sherry Workman is with the organization.
18:27
She joins us now shared good morning, welcome to the show. Good morning,
18:30
thank you for being here. Thank you You've made the rounds this morning,
18:33
haven't you? Weren't you on the here with the with Rob or in
18:37
the basement on Superstar Country? Kwus you're down there with him hanging out.
18:41
We'll make care a bona fide radio person before the days of now. I
18:44
really wouldn't wish that on. You seem too nice for that. We don't
18:47
want to make you one of us. It's gonna be a good time for
18:49
a good cause. Talk about the group first, this third annual. Then
18:52
we'll talk about about your riding group. Okay, the Valkyries Ladies Club.
18:56
We Hannah Johnson and I founded it in July of twenty twenty one just to
19:03
you know, there's a lot of female riders out there that you know,
19:08
don't really want to ride with guys, and so, you know, we
19:11
just thought this would be a great idea to you know, encourage more women
19:15
to get out and ride. We do a lot of community events, including
19:21
the Think Pink Ride. How long have you been riding yourself? I've been
19:25
riding for four years. No, really, okay, what is it that
19:29
My reason I said, really is I assume by you know, in barking
19:32
on something like this, that you probably would have been riding like your whole
19:33
life you just picked up. For what is it about riding that you like
19:37
so much? The freedom really, just the freedom getting on the bike,
19:41
the wind just just going and it just just you know, release your mind
19:47
and you can just just ride. What kind of bike do you ride?
19:48
I have a no force softail standard. Okay, right. And one thing
19:52
I have learned I'm not a motorcyclist myself, but one thing I have learned
19:56
by being friends with a lot of men and women that ride bikes is there
20:00
they're a family, very close knit group, and there's a lot of stereotypes
20:07
around people that ride bikes. And I will tell you I have done work
20:10
in my thirty five years in this radio business, I have done work with
20:14
a lot of different motorcycle organizations and a lot of different parts of the state.
20:18
Some of the most caring, giving, loving people that you could ever
20:23
want to meet, whether it's something like this for cancer, whether it's uh
20:26
providing toys and think you know, for kids at Christmas time. I mean,
20:30
some of the most caring people in the world that ride motorcycles. Yes
20:36
they are. The biker community is amazing and like you said, usually stereotyped
20:41
they see them, you know, with their men, you know, with
20:44
their beards, their tattoos. They don't all have tattoos and beards, you
20:48
know, but still they see all that and it's like, oh, no,
20:49
stay away from them. But but no, the it really I wasn't
20:53
around, you know, a lot of the biker community and everything before you
20:57
know, I started riding in everything, and it really opened my eyes.
21:03
And I know I've changed a lot me personally, you know, I know
21:06
I've changed a lot of other people's viewpoints, you know, of bikers,
21:10
and and that's another goal of the Valkyries, you know, it's just like
21:15
bringing the feminine side, you know, you know, in on it.
21:18
Also. Yeah, and again we're talking with Sherry Workman about this third annual
21:22
Think Pink Ride. One hundred percent of the proceeds will go to the CMC
21:26
Breast Center. Why is this particular cause important to your organization? Sharing,
21:32
Well, you know, we're females, you know, we're females, and
21:34
breast cancer does not Actually I found this out doing the research and the spokespeople
21:38
that I've spoke with through the c AMC Cancer Center. Breast cancer doesn't only
21:44
affect females, No, man can get one of one of my former co
21:48
workers and best France, he's since passed on, not from that, but
21:51
for something else. You've suffered from breast cancer. Yeah, and like I
21:55
said, I mean it affects everyone, whether personally or someone that you know,
22:00
co worker, loved, one family member, you know, and gets
22:03
expensive. Ite's very, very expensive. And one percent of our funds going
22:10
to you know, the breast cancer Center. Part of this, you know,
22:15
it's used to anyone, whether you have insurance or not. You know
22:18
you can it's it's to help fund for the screenings. You can get a
22:22
screening. You know, there's transportation costs that people don't think about getting to
22:27
and from the treatments, and then just other personal assistance that is needed that
22:33
you know insurance does not cover and sometimes that is an issue. And you
22:38
set a goal for yourself to raise was that ten thousand dollars since years?
22:44
Yeah, when we first started this. Our this is our third annual,
22:47
like you said, our first one. I can still remember being in the
22:48
TV interview stating that I just you know, they have said, you know,
22:52
what was our goal? And I was like, I said, I'd
22:55
like to raise five hundred two thousand dollars. You know that was you know
22:59
too years ago. This is our third one and this year the club,
23:03
you know, we talked and everything about it and everything, and we set
23:07
this goal that when we were figuring up the money that we've brought in that
23:10
we've gave to the foundation, if we match last year's amounts and then increase
23:18
it by eleven dollars, it'll be ten thousand dollars is what we've raised.
23:22
If we do it, you know, in three years. That's why we're
23:25
really you know, it is a club goal, and you know, we're
23:27
really really really trying to push for that. Yeah, And so everything's going
23:32
to be uh in Charleston this Sunday. Registration is at eleven. I like
23:37
this, kickstands up at one, kickstands up at one. It's at the
23:40
sea. So you're going to start at the c AMC Cancer Center thirty four
23:42
fifteen mccorkill Avenue, Southeast and Charleston. It's fifteen dollars for single, twenty
23:48
dollars for doubles. What's what does the ride itself look like? We are
23:52
just it's it's a simple rinde. We just try it. Because last year
23:55
we had over a hundred bikes, okay. And so when you have that
23:57
many bikes going through are also done you know, in the area and stuff
24:00
like that, it's hard to get every you know, keep it safe for
24:04
us and others and everything else, and so we try and keep it simple.
24:08
We're just going to go straight down sixty to Collode and we're going to
24:11
end it at the Coal Miners Lounge, okay. And we have door prizes.
24:15
You know, we really want to thank the community and the local businesses
24:18
that have you know, you know, dug deep and gave us door prizes,
24:22
gave us cash donations, which we do. You know, we will
24:26
take cash donations even if you can't be there, right people have to work
24:30
or right, yeah, I don't ride right and then and that's perfectly fine,
24:33

the texture given us that in a couple of quick notes, and then we'll
31:00
go to brad the City of Charleston, go back to the city for a
31:03
moment. We'll have their second in a series of meetings called Here to Serve
31:08
Now. These are designed to get the public a chance to talk about anything
31:11
that happens to be on their minds, questions, comments, concerns, whatever.
31:15
They had the last one at first one last week. This one is
31:18
tomorrow night at six at Mary C. Snow Elementary. Now the entire meeting
31:22

31:26
also at Dave A seventy on xc artist form. They noticed twitter. The
31:30
second Republican presidential debate schedule for denighted at the Reagan Library in California. No
31:36
former President Trump, He'll skip it to speak to auto workers instead. Latest
31:41
polls have him somewhere around forty points ahead of his nearest rival, Rond and
31:47
Santa's a couple of notes about our presumptive nomintees for president, former President Trump
31:52
and current office holder Joe Biden. Start with President Biden. NAVC News out
31:56
with a story that the federal probe and if the President's handling the classified documents
32:01
has grown into a widespread investigation. As many as one hundred witnesses have already
32:08
been interviewed and more coming. Now. This is when he was vice president
32:13
under President Obama, not when he was president. This is handling the classified
32:15
documents as vice president and worth noting that this is a growing investigation. As
32:22
for Trump, a judge has ruled that the former president engaged in repeated fraud
32:27
to obtain business loans for his businesses. Pretty much the way I read it,
32:34
Trump has done with being allowed to conduct business in the state of New
32:37
York. If this holds, the judge's words were Trump and other defendants have
32:44
a propensity to engage in persistent fraud end quote. That's the words out of
32:51
the judge there in New York. And remember this is our future, folks
32:55
in twenty twenty four, that we're talking about Trump and Biden. This is
32:59
what we're talking Let's go to Mentro New state wide correspondent Brad Michael Henny Brad,
33:02
good morning, how are you hey? Good morning, doing good,
33:06
Great to have you along this morning. We waited, Brad a long time
33:10
for the governor's financial disclosures to come out, and well that came out one
33:16
hundred or so days late, I think on Monday. This was some fun
33:22
reading. What what was your biggest and you talked about a little bit with
33:25
a hoppy, but what was your biggest takeaway from the whole thing? I
33:30
know that's kind of hard to surmise into a couple of minutes. What was
33:32
your biggest takeaway from the governor's financials? You know, A couple of things
33:39
I wanted to know. A couple of things stood up. One is that,
33:45
particularly early in his political career, Justices entry into your door to ask
33:52
your vote was I'm a businessman. I have done this, I can bose
33:57
the numbers, bring that business acumen potentially to his government experience, and he
34:05
has. He has continued to say that when financial questions have come up,
34:07
so does the do do this? Does this financial disclosure show that that Justice
34:15
is a good businessman? You know, just generally doesn't reflect that. And
34:22
then secondly, he's a he's in a high profile and expensive US Senate campaign
34:27
and was recruited by US Senate Republican leadership. And so the question has been
34:32
there to what degree, if any, could Justice self fund his campaign.
34:37
Well, you know, you look at this, and I will say this
34:40
information is available to you. You can you can look up Senate financial disclosure,
34:46
gentle listeners, and you can go to this and and take a look
34:50
yourself. Justice does have a lot of assets, hundreds of lines of reporting
34:58
on assets, stockholdings, is checking accounts parts of his family business network,
35:08
and they they are listed as having significant value, particularly you know, the
35:15
coal holdings, the resorts, all of that significant value, but some of
35:22
them, some of the more than fifty million dollars, it says in overall
35:28
value of the asset. But then you come out to another line and it
35:32
says, well, how much income is it bringing in, and line after
35:36
line after line it says none. So, you know, Justice, as
35:40
we have suspected for a while, and his own report does appear to have
35:47
holdings at least he and and maybe assessors consider to be of value but not
35:55
bringing in any money. So you know, the first question, good business
36:00
guy's it would be hard to make that assessment if you have all those assets
36:06
and they're not bringing in any money, hard to say, good business guy.
36:10
And can he self support his expensive US Senate campaign based on the income
36:19
coming in? That would be hard to support. Also, and again you
36:22
talked about that campaign. The polls have him way out ahead of Congressman Alex
36:29
Mooney. We don't know if there's going to be a Democrat if just as
36:32
ones. We don't know if there's gonna I mean, there'll be somebody to
36:35
run, but we don't know. Certainly looking like it's not going to be
36:37
Joe Manchin, but we don't know who that would be. Brad, did
36:40
you hear Senator Tar on the show yesterday, because he wasted no time and
36:45
pouncing up on this. I did hear him, and I thought he raised
36:52
some specific and insightful questions. One of them to review. I'm sure everybody
36:58
was listening yesterday, but just to remind everyone on what Senator Tar wondered first
37:02
was about a couple of loans. One was a loan of in the neighborhood
37:09
of one million to five million dollars, specifically from the businessman and broadcaster Brave
37:15
Carry, who spent several years as Justice as senior advisor. And then there
37:22
was also another loan in the same range one to five million dollars from his
37:28
Carry Foundation, a sort of charitable fund that bray Carrey has, you know,
37:36
and there's very little we know otherwise. It had a date on it.
37:39
It was August thirty first, twenty twenty one. That was just a
37:44
few weeks after bray Carrey left the Justice administration. There are questions that I
37:47
have, you know, first, how do you raise the issue, Okay,
37:51
can you flip me alone of five million dollars? Why why would bray
37:57
Carrey provide that money both from his own checking account apparently as well as from
38:02
his own charitable account. And why did the governor seem to need that specific
38:07
amount? No explanation so far. And then the other the other thing that
38:13
I thought was a great question from Senator tar It was something I hadn't noticed.
38:15
But the liabilities section for Justice listed loans zero zero percent loans, so
38:24
he's paying zero percent interest. But some of them up to boy there was
38:31
a five five hundred thousand to one million dollar loan from Teams Management, which
38:37
is a company Justice owned himself, a loan of that amount to Justice for
38:44
zero percent interest. Also, well, sorry, it was a line of
38:47
credit. Loan is not the proper term, but it was a line of
38:50
credit. And then another line of credit, for example, from Bellwood Corporation
38:54
one million dollars to five million dollars to Justice zero percent interest. A line
38:59
of credit from the Greenbrier, the resort which Justice's family owns, True Justice
39:07
five million to twenty five million dollars that line of credit at zero percent interest.
39:10
So, I, like Senda to Tar, don't quite understand how that
39:15
works. And it is a range, and it is a line of credits,
39:20
But how much from the family businesses is benefiting Governor Justice in his own
39:29
day to day living, very very curious, and I thought Sendor Tar was
39:34
correct, and we're out as a matter of questioning. Well, it's going
39:37
to be pointed out in the campaign. I can promise you that. And
39:39
again, as Senator Tar said on the show yesterday, Brad, I mean
39:43
this is one of those two or three big races that everybody across the country
39:46
is going to be looking at and Congressman Alex Mooney is way way down in
39:52
the polls, as you know. And I guess the question here is,
39:55
Brad, is will this be enough for will voters care? I mean,
40:00
because you know Jim Justice is his numbers, I don't know, I haven't
40:02
seen recent pony, but his numbers as far as his popularity of governors,
40:07
he's fourth fifth most popular governor in America. People elected him as a Democrat
40:15
knowing that he had had a lot of this financial not to the point that
40:17
we have at now, but that knowing he has some of this financial uncertainty
40:22
or whatever, and people didn't really care. They voted for him back when
40:25
he's a Democrat. He made to switch the Republican. It doesn't seem seem
40:29
like it's going to really make a whole lot of difference. But I do
40:31
think that what you're gonna see and what you're gonna hear, Brad on media
40:37
outlets like this and your television stations and social media newspaper, you're gonna see
40:40
a lot of money poured into West Virginia by political action committees and the lack
40:47
of you called it the lack of financial acumen on behalf of governor Justice is
40:54
going to be a major vocal point in the campaign, would you agree,
41:00
Well, I think so. I had the same question you do that as
41:04
far back as twenty sixteen when Justice was first running as a businessman for governor.
41:09
He received this criticism and won anyway. And then in two thousand,
41:16
when it was twenty twenty, when he was running for re election, you
41:20
know, it came up again. It's it's it's been, It's arisen many
41:22
times over the years. What I do wonder is if if the difference could
41:28
be that this is a race for US Senate, it's very evenly split.
41:31
Congressman Mooney, who is his Republican primary campaign opponent, has his own significant
41:39
campaign funds, but also has allies in Club for Growth with potentially millions of
41:45
dollars to spend. And so has Justice been hammered on this point to the
41:52
degree that he potentially could be hammered first by allies of Congressman Mooney and then
41:59
potential actually for the general election potentially for allies of Senator Mansion. We will
42:05
see. I don't know still if it'll make a difference, but it is
42:09
it is out there as an issue that I think we'll hear of in these
42:13
these advertising campaigns. What are you working on today, Brad? Never a
42:15
dull moment in the world of Brad. What are you? What are you?
42:19
What are you looking at today? Byn? You know, I got
42:23
up today expecting that we would hear Governor Justice is going to have a media
42:29
availability. They've typically been on Wednesdays, and so far none has been announced
42:34
today. Justice did have a fundraiser in Washington, DC yesterday late afternoon,
42:42
early evening, so it's possible that the schedule has been disrupted because of that
42:47
event. But I thought that there would be significant questions, potentially including by
42:52
me, about this this this financial disclosure. But we might have to wait
42:58
another day on that. Secondly, every every moment, Dave, every moment,
43:02
we get closer and closer to a federal government shutdown, so that is
43:06
also worth watching. All right, Brand, I appreciate it. We'll talk
43:08
again to man. Thanks a lot, he thanks. Ten minutes away from

46:04
Tour Canada. Chris Miller, Good morning, sir. How are you,
46:07
David Man? I'm fantastic. How about yourself? I am doing well.
46:09
You know, we're running a little bit short on time, which is bad
46:13
for two guys like us who love to talk. Yeah, in that that
46:15
aren't true. But go ahead, I'll get right to the chase. Then
46:21
all right, well, but let me ask you this first. I want
46:22
to ask you was how's the campaign one? I gotta give you how's the
46:24
campaign one? Listen? Rock and Rolling got a ton of momentum ever since
46:30
we had the first quote unquote debate. She's taken off and quite frankly,
46:34
Dave it was I don't know if he saw it or not. The consensus
46:37
was I smoked him. Anyway. The reason why I'm calling those not it
46:42
wouldn't even talk about that, Okay, talk about what real election interference is.
46:46
I'm sure you've seen by now that there was this lawsuit that was filed
46:51
in West Virginia by this crazy group of liberal people it's called crew and they
46:57
are literally trying to kick Donald Trump off of the and they're doing this all
47:00
around the country. It started in Texas, and they're using it underneath the
47:05
guys at the fourteenth Amendment, which is you know that that was created to
47:08
keep a bunch of British loyalists from you know, being involved inside of the
47:13
government as we formed it and has nothing to do with this, and they're
47:16
trying to use they're trying to violate Donald Trump's First Amendment rights of free speech
47:21
to use that as a reason to keep him off of ballots. I don't
47:25
I'm pretty confident that it's not going to work in West Virginia. The question
47:29
is does it work anywhere else around the country. And like this, this
47:32
is not stuff that's done right after, you know, the election happened in
47:37
twenty twenty. This is being done right now before another election that's occurring.
47:42
With the entire ideal idea is to take all of his focus and resources and
47:47
have him fight all these legal battles all around the country as opposed to like
47:51
focusing on beating Joe Biden and running for president. So I think it's definitely
47:55
worth mentioned mentioning I think everybody out there needs to understand and this. It
48:00
is an absolutely crazy thing that's going on, and it's nothing more than like
48:05
a baked in deep state approach to try to interfere inside of an election.
48:09
It's it's crazy. The state Republican Party Chris issued a statement within the last
48:15
hour about it, and I can't really I necessarily read it on the air,
48:17
but but they're all over this. I think somebody's told me in the
48:21
hallway that the state treasure Riley Moore had released statements on it. So a
48:23
lot of the a lot of the Republican folks are are all up in arms
48:28
over this. Yeah, it's really disappointed to see this happening. It seems
48:34
like it is like you're talking about election interference. This seems to me to
48:37
be what election interference is right here. And I'm a big Trump supporter.
48:44
I think I'm the biggest Trump supporter in West Virginia when it comes to raising
48:49
money for him and helping, you know, get votes for him. And
48:54
to see something like this, where I've spent a lot of my time trying
48:58
to raise money for a president happen is just it's disgusting because it's going to
49:05
take all of these particular resources that he has that he has been building up
49:08
and have to direct them all the fighting stupid lawsuits. It's ridiculous, Chris.
49:14
So let me just play Devil's advocate here for a moment. So you're
49:16
saying you have no problem with President Trump. Obviously, you're a supporter the
49:22
lawsuits, the court cases his own alleged election meddling or making phone calls to
49:25
Georgia. You're you're okay with that. Listen, until I believe in our
49:30
legal system, right, I believe in the fact that it's guilty until or
49:34
sorry, innocent until proven guilty. Okay, And I don't see anything that.
49:38
I don't see anything that shows that he has done anything wrong as of
49:42
yet. I haven't seen it yet, have you? Well, I mean
49:45
when you when you start playing seeing phone calls. Now, I do have
49:47
a little bit of an issue with that. Telling people to find votes,
49:50
I mean, didn't have a little bit, a little bit much Chris.
49:52
Well, so if you're talking about literally finding and inventing votes, that's one
49:57
thing. I guess it's intent. It goes to yeah, yeah, right,
50:00
and listen, there were all kinds of stuff shelf around in this.
50:04
And if you're talking about locating where all the votes are, that's one thing
50:07
you're talking about inventing something that's something totally different. Okay, what about all
50:12
the other cases you you contend, you and others contend that these are just
50:16
being no pun intended trumped up to keep him off the ballot. I think
50:21
it's very very convenient to do this stuff during during another presidential election, as
50:24
opposed to starting all of these things the week after the past election in twenty
50:29
twenty. So that tells me there's a lot of political nonsense baked into all
50:31
of this stuff. Well, and again, you're looking at somebody that has
50:34
forty percent at least a forty percent advantage over his nearest Republican rival, and
50:39
the Republican debates at night, he's not going to be there, and he's
50:44
going to get no matter where what platform that his talk to the auto workers
50:47
is going to, it's going to get more ratings than what the Republican debate's
50:51
going to get on television, which is pretty fascinating in it it is for
50:54
media guy, it is it is pretty fascinating. You and I are both
50:59
media guys, and that is marketing baby it is, and you call yourself
51:02
the greatest market in history. You stay to West Virginia so you would know.
51:07
I guess David takes one another one. Yeah, you get pretty dark.
51:10
Good yourself, all right, Chris, we'll talk a good suit man.
51:14
Thanks a lot, best to luck to you. Appreciate Chris Miller again
51:16
gubernatorial candidate here in the state of West Virginia. You know, Chris and
51:22
I have been friends for us. We kind of he kind of needle on
51:23
each other a little bit from time to time. But he got me with
51:27
that last one about the marketing. Yeah he did. I you know,
51:30
look I have said on this show, and we're running out of time,
51:32
I have made I'm not exactly the most popular person within the Republican Party and
51:36
staid to West Virginia simply because I cannot wrap my head around me personally speaking
51:42
to me, not the station, not anybody else. I can't wrap myself
51:45
around the Donald Trump flak. I just can't do it. And U but
51:50
he or Joe Biden is going to be the next president of the United States,
51:53
and you are looking, in my opinion, my opinion, only two
51:58
of the most corrupt individuals on the face of the Earth and one of them
52:01
is going to be your next president of the United States and my president too,
52:06
So there you go. My thanks for Chris Miller for being on the
52:07
show, and the Sherry Workman from the Think Pink Ride, Brad mclahaney as
52:13
well, and Charleston City Councilman Chad Robinson. Gotta go. Coming up tomorrow
52:17
