we do the show from the Parmar store studio. If there's not a Parmar

2:07
in Elkins at the Forest Festival. They'll be there through Saturday. May.
2:09
I want to go and get those Powerball tickets as well, because nobody hit
2:12
the jackpot, so I think I heard this morning them say that it was
2:15
the first time there had ever been back to back over a billion dollar jackpot.
2:20
So nobody hit it last night. Get those tickets while you're up there,
2:23
or get them in any participating not participating in all Parmer stores. There's
2:28
not a Parmar store near you. Now, there will be soon coming up
2:30
on the show. There is a new film and it's called Impossible Town,
2:36
and we are scheduled to be joined by the producers of that film. And
2:38
I bring this up because they're doing screenings all around the state of West Virginia
2:43
on the film. One of those is actually going to be held here in
2:46
Charleston and that is coming up at the Culture Center on Friday night, seven
2:51
o'clock. Now, they started doing these screenings at the in Clarksburg at the
2:53
Robinson Grand. They've had them in Pittsburgh, in Morgantown. The one in
2:59
Morgantown I think was last night. They're doing one tonight in Wheeling, and
3:01
then there's one in Charleston as sen Friday night Saturday night there at Historic Fayette
3:07
Theater in Fayetteville, and then on Sunday at the Raleigh Playhouse in Beckley,
3:10
and there's a Q and A with the filmmakers, and again we're scheduled to
3:13
have those filmmakers on the show with us. We haven't heard from them yet,
3:15
but hopefully we'll get them. We'll get them dialed up here momentarily and
3:21
we will we'll have that interview interview for you plus comeing up a little bit
3:23
later on in the show. There. You know, this is the time
3:27
of season where there's hotted houses and hotted trails and things of that nature going
3:31
everywhere, and there's one of those that's called scare View. And the folks
3:37
said, Donna Owens's gentleman's name. He's got a couple of the people with
3:38
him. They've made their rounds here at the station. We're going to tell
3:42
you about scare View coming up a little bit later on as well as we're
3:45
awaiting our guests this morning. I will tell you that details continue to come
3:51
in and further information about this story out of Cistonville. Jeff and I talked
3:55
about it on the air yesterday. The story is actually making national news.
3:59
The kids that were found in a well originally what was called a barn,
4:04
and when you look at the picture of it. There actually was a shelter.
4:08
There were teenagers that were adopted by these two people, and I used
4:12
that term loosely, uh. And they had these kids living in virtual squalor
4:16
inside a shed. They were locked, it was. They fed them apparently
4:19
once a day, and they had the feeding. It sounds horrible to say
4:25
that, but they had their feeding at six o'clock the other morning and then
4:27
they left. And the police then showed up there and found that these that
4:32
these young people were living in again originally called a barn, not really a
4:36
barn. It's more what most would call a shed with no running water.
4:41
There was a toilet in the middle of this shed. Uh. And that's
4:46
again using the term toilet very likely. It was more like as Chris described
4:49
it. It was more like a kind of a porta potty, sort of
4:53
a device that you would have in a in an RV of some type that
4:59
was in the middle of the floor, and that's what they were using for
5:02
that. Now police moved in a couple of days ago, and Sergeant Josh
5:09
Lester of the know County Sheriff's Department said in an interview yesterday, which by
5:14
the way, you can read all the tales on the website that the department
5:16
had been there at least two other times and found everything to be okay there.
5:21
One visit was in May and the other one was in June. Now,
5:27
neighbors had complained that the kids were outside at all hours of the night.
5:32
Deputies did report that there had been a plumbing issue in the house when
5:39
they visited previously, and that the family was using an outdoor toilet. Sergeant
5:46
Lester, again in the Sheriff's Department, said that each time the deputies were
5:48
there that they actually saw the kids, as the term that they use is,
5:53
we actually were able to lay eyes on them because the neighbors had called
5:57
to complain. So I guess what they were saying is is when they went
6:01
out there, they didn't see any any signs of any any major issues other
6:06
than as I said, that that toilet issue that they had, and so
6:11
that's kind of where they that's kind of that's kind of what their what their
6:15
report is saying. So again, just just a horrific situation, I mean,
6:23
all the way all the way around, and so you can read more
6:28
about it the website. It's a very difficult story. I'll be honest with
6:30
you, uh, to even to even talk about now. Again, the
6:35
neighbors are saying that they that they did contact CPS and that they found that
6:42
there was no but there was no response, And I may have been a
6:45
little bit harsh yesterday, and again I apologize for that because we don't know
6:48
what the situation was. The CPS. Well, we all do know the
6:53
issues with CPS around the state of h of West Virginia. It's basically in
6:58
crisis mode. So this is just what the neighbors are reporting, Uh,
7:00
that they had called repeatedly to CPS and nothing was done. You know.
7:05
Again, Uh, we just don't know. We just don't know what that
7:10
situation is and what actually happened there, Chris. I know yesterday reached out
7:15
to the folks with Child Protective Services and they did not have a comment or
7:21
you know, did not return phone calls or whatever at this particular time.
7:25
And we'll keep working on that story. Another part of the story was is
7:30
that apparently the family had some exotic animals, including things like wallabies, on
7:36
the property and that those also had to be removed as well. So uh,
7:46
again, just you know, it's it's a very difficult story to even
7:48
to even try to talk about, and so well, the investigation is going
7:55
to continue into that. We certainly have not heard the last of it.
7:59
And well that's pretty much where we'll leave it there. Five Ady Live is
8:03
brought to you a part by your hometown baseball team, the Charleston Dirty Birds.
8:07
You're invited to come check out the Down and Dirty Music Festival. It's
8:11
going on at Gomar Ballpark on October the fourteenth and fifteenth. For tickets and
8:15
for more information, you can visit Down in Dirty Musical Festival dot com.
8:18
If you were traveling on I sixty four westbound yesterday afternoon, you were delayed
8:24
for a long time when a box truck crashed in the work zone near Bill's
8:33
Creek on I sixty four wayess I guess runs over top of Bill's Creek.
8:37
The truck was carrying non perishable food items and it happened at around one thirty
8:45
yesterday afternoon. Story and pictures of the wreck, and these pictures, by
8:50
the way, they were courteously I think of the emergency services folks there in
8:54
Putnam County storing pictures of the wreck are posted at wq Metronews dot com and
9:00
they are saying that more than likely speed was a factor. And as somebody
9:05
who travels I sixty four daily, as you will know, I live in
9:09
Tays Valley and I travel I sixty four at various times of the day east
9:13
and westbound. Obviously, you know going and coming speed is a factor in
9:18
just about everything that happens there. I mean, it's really really, it's
9:22
really really bad, folks. Slow down, Slow down. If you're listening
9:28
to me and you're driving right now, the speed limit is fifty five,
9:31
okay. Friend of mine actually got a ticket for doing a couple of miles
9:35
over. I'm not talking about he was doing in the seventies. He was
9:39
pulled over for doing like sixty. So slow down. It's not that hard,
9:46
okay. So I think we do have our guests on the show now.
9:48
As I said, we're gonna do a little bit of film study today
9:50
here in five eight Live. There's a film that's going to be screen free
9:52
of charge this Friday night, tomorrow night on the grounds of the West Virginia
9:56
State Capitol of the Culture Center. Started at seven. The movie is called
9:58
Impossible Down. And I think we have Meg Griffiths on the on the phone
10:03
with U right now. Meg, good morning, how are you? Good
10:05
morning? Dave? And Scott Farris this year too, my cow director.
10:09
I want it's great to have both of you here this morning. How did
10:13
you look before we get into what the film is about, tell us how
10:16
did you two get involved in this project and what was it that appeal to
10:18
you about doing this? How'd the whole thing come about? Yeah, indeed,
10:22
this is Scott. I grew up here in Harrison County in Bridgeport,
10:26
and I've been working with Meg making short documentaries all across the country for about
10:30
ten years, and for most of that time, we were so excited to
10:35
tell a story in my home state of West Virginia because we realized that we
10:37
can tell stories and places that feel like home to us, the work is
10:41
that much better. And we just could not find a client who was willing
10:45
to send us here, and so at a certain point we realized, you
10:48
know what, if we're passionate about telling a story in the state, we've
10:50
got to go do it ourselves. And so we started asking around who's doing
10:54
interesting things in the state of West Virginia and almost immediately met a high school
10:58
classmate of doctor I Amjads who said, you really should have talked to my
11:01
old high school buddy. I think she's trying to move a town of people,
11:05
and we thought that just sounds fascinating. We've got to follow up and
11:09
everything and from that pretty organically and talk about the film and whre's that name?
11:15
And then was Amazad is not a not a strange name to our folks
11:18
here in West Virginia. But but talk about what's the basically plotline of the
11:22
film. Yeah, Well, the film opens with doctor Ein Amjad grieving the
11:31
loss of her father, who passed away just prior to the start of production
11:35
and who had worked for years with community activists in mindon West Virginia, which
11:41
had suffered from pretty high rates of cancer due to chemical contamination left over from
11:46
the mining industry. And I decides, you know what, the only way
11:50
to solve this problem permanently is to move the entire town from its current location
11:56
to a ninety seven acre plot of land that she purchased just after her to
12:00
have past. And so that's really the beginning of the film, and everything
12:03
that happens is as a result of Pine's efforts to do that, and as
12:07
a result of the EPA coming in and doing some additional testing and interacting with
12:13
the community members and Mendon and all. Just that one thing, Dave is
12:16
that probably folks across the state may have heard of Mendon and the work that's
12:20
being has been done there over the last forty years. Taka jump. Where
12:26
is men in West Virginia. Mendon is in the southern part of the state.
12:30
It's near Beckley, near Hotel If you're familiar with that, Okay,
12:35
you know, this is an issue that's been covered for many years by state
12:41
papers, radio. It's gotten a lot of national coverage. But you know,
12:46
we really think that we tried to take a different angle and shine some
12:50
new light on the story. So I think that even folks that are familiar
12:54
with what's been happening in men In will come and watch the film and be
12:58
surprised. And when you talk about moving a town and somebody's just tuned in,
13:01
they're saying, oh, you know, she's talking about moving to town
13:05
like a movement in the town. You're literally talking about the moving a town,
13:09
right, Yeah, I'm purchases ninety seven acres in odd West Virginia,
13:16
which is about forty miles from Mindon, And she literally has a vision to
13:22
move the town to relocate on that everyone that wants to go. Yeah,
13:26
I mean that's not something it's like moving a couch or something. I mean,
13:30
since you're moving a town. I mean, it's an unbelievable story.
13:33
Again, we're talking to Meg Griffins and Scott Ferris from this film Impossible Town.
13:37
It's going to be screened its Culture Center. It's on the Capitol grounds
13:41
tomorrow night, and I will go over the entire list I did earlier.
13:43
We're waiting you, guys of where it's been. It's been screened so far.
13:46
What has the response been in the previous screenings that you've had, guys.
13:52
Yeah, it's a great question. In so many ways. It's a
13:56
pretty challenging film on a number of levels. I mean, first and foremost,
14:00
there's just the history of trauma that this town has endured and the loss
14:05
of life that is tough to sit and watch for ninety minutes. But then
14:09
the film is also challenging in the sense that some of the latest data to
14:13
come out around the levels of contamination and the location of that contamination I think
14:18
challenges conventional wisdom about what's going on in Mendon. In an interesting way I
14:26
and herself, which is, as you mentioned, Dave a figure that people
14:30
have probably heard of giving her role at the state level. She reveals some
14:35
very personal and vulnerable information in the film, and I think you will come
14:37
away with a renewed appreciation for the cost paid by public servants like doctor Amjad,
14:45
especially during the pandemic when there was just so much on the line and
14:50
they worked so hard to try to ensure the health and safety of West Virginians.
14:54
I think you'll come away with an appreciation for just the burden that folks
14:58
like I have borne. Well, I'm looking forward to seeing it. I'm
15:01
kind of a sucker for any sort of a documentary type film, anything that
15:05
tells a true story, being a biography or whatever the case may be,
15:07
and I'm definitely looking forward to it. It's called Impossible Town. Is there
15:11
a like a website or something or of social media where people could learn more
15:16
about it? Guys, absolutely absolutely, you can check out our website at
15:20
impossibletown dot com. All right, Impossible down talk now again, the screenings
15:26
are going to be continuing. As I said, this one I'm talking about
15:28
because we're in Charleston. It's going to be tomorrow night at the Culture Center.
15:31

the complete schedule, I've got that posted on my social media. It's on
20:03
Dave Island Radio, on Facebook and at Dave A seventy on x. The
20:07
artist formerly known as Twitter. How in the world did you guys get involved
20:11
in this? I've been involved since day one of two thousand and eight Fire
20:15
Department voluntary fire Department. So what was it that made you back in two
20:19
thousand and eight say I want to be a part of this. I've been
20:22
doing this done since I was fourteen years old. Really, yeah, it
20:23
was no question, just jump on board and let's go creepy old school.
20:29
It's just it's perfect for everything. Well, I was talking to one of
20:32
our salespeople here and he said he actually attended that school, so he remembered
20:37
it. He remembered it. Okay. So I will say this as someone
20:40
who has helped put on an event like this in the past, although full
20:42
disclosure of the one I helped put on was with the Civic Organization. Nowhere
20:45
near is what it sounds like what you guys are doing. And that was
20:48
like twenty five years or so ago, So I don't know really that you
20:52
can compare. There's a whole lot of work, a whole lot of work
20:56
that goes into putting one of these on. Talk about the work we start
21:00
in November. Basically soon as we shut the doors, we're putting stuff through
21:04
our minds. It's a year round process. Basically, what do you see
21:11
when people come out? I mean, you don't want to spoil it for
21:12
our listeners this morning, but when they come out to scare of you?
21:15
What kind I mentioned the top of the show that there's all kinds of trails,
21:18
there's all kinds of houses, and what makes what makes yours different?
21:21
What will people see when they come out? We got fifty thousand square foot
21:26
of old creepy school. It may be creepy without even decorating. Is that
21:32
what you said? Yes, it is very much. So it has a
21:34
it has a on beyance about it. And so I imagine because I've got
21:38
friends that are really into this sort of thing with their kids and with others,
21:41
and although they just make it a point during the month of October,
21:45
starting late in October, to visit as many of these yes different type things
21:48
as they can, where have people come from Pennsylvania, Canada, Yeah,
21:56
all over Florida, all over West Virginia, Vigia. Yeah, exactly.
22:02
Yeah. I mean people and people that are into this sort of thing are
22:06
really into this sort of thing too. I mean it's just like it like
22:07
a sport or whatever. It's just it's just kind of your thing that you
22:11
do. I mean, well you can't see it because it's on radio,
22:12
but he's holding up his armshir, that are covered in uh uh, what
22:18
explain some of your tech guys here. You've got silent heel, we got
22:21
Michael Myers, Jason Krueger, leather face. So obviously this is something that
22:26
you've been into. I'm I'm presuming since you were a kid, right,
22:29
Amy, sir? What is it about that genre that appeals to you?
22:33
Just like being scared? Yeah, I just like it. And I will
22:38
say as you don't have an event like this and it's not going to be
22:41
a success without the buy in of the communities. I mean, you know,
22:44
you have these people that come from all different places, but you've got
22:47
to have a lot of people that buy into this. Your sponsors and things
22:49
like that. Talk about the response of the people in Saint Albans and the
22:52
entire canal of Valley. Well, we're fortunate. We have about sixty to
22:56
one hundred volunteers. We're all volunteer organization. Is a nice thing about it.
23:00
I got a lot of spport from the communities, A lot of people
23:03
just come might have fun with it. But we couldn't do without our staff.
23:07
We've got a great staff. How many people does it take to put
23:08
this on? We design it to have a minimal staff, but it takes
23:12
the minimal staff about fifty to sixty people to make it very successful. Right,
23:17
Yeah, it's it's like I said, I've done this on a very
23:21
very much smaller scale, and it's and there's a whole lot of work that
23:23
goes into it. And what people don't realize too, is that generally speaking,
23:27
I mean doors open at what time? Doors open? We just opened
23:30
took a book at seven and seven pm, okay, and we usually don't
23:33
start tool guys, you'll get stark. Okay. So what happens is usually
23:37
is about six fifty eight, something's not not something's not working. You know,
23:40
this is not working properly, and you're working right up to and then
23:44
working right up afterwards. I mentioned kids earlier, and I always have to
23:47
ask these questions when we promote these things. Is there an age level that
23:52
this is for? I mean, now, sometimes parents, you know,
23:55
I've done interviews like this the past, and parents will say, well,
23:57
I want to bring my eight year old? Is it okay for? Is
24:00
it because some of these aren't necessarily age appropriate? Any age restrictions. No,
24:06
there's no age restrictions. What we what we actually pride are I do.
24:10
I pride myself in it. If you if you come up, if
24:14
you bring your kids, so to say, and your kids seven eight years
24:18
old, and they don't want to go here or she doesn't want to go
24:21
through it, they get scared, We'll actually walk through them and turn the
24:23
lights on for them. Okay. We have a lot of kids actually work
24:26
there, no scares, just just so they can see everything. And then
24:30
by the time they get through it, hey, let's let's try it with
24:33
the lights off. Okay, All right, Well that's good that you do
24:37
that. I mean, and you mentioned don that you have a lot of
24:40
kids involved in Yeah, we have lots of children. I mean I have
24:44
five children, four of them participate, my youngest and Jamie's kids was actually
24:48
younger than mine. My youngest she was six years old the first year she
24:52
worked. My oldest daughter who's now twenty three. Well wait twenty three,
24:55
she was actually four when she started. So my kids have grown up in
24:59
it and they love it. And now I asked Jamie about this, and
25:00
Don I'll ask you about this. What is your fascination with this? Is
25:03
this something like Jamie, that that you've liked since you were a kid,
25:07
this whole genre of well, the scary world. I'm an old man here.
25:11
Actually I got asked to do one my freshman year in college in nineteen
25:15
eighty nine, eight, nineteen eighty seven. My apologies, and it's just
25:19
kind of stuck with me ever since, and I've just been doing it,
25:22
playing it and enjoying it. Love scaring people, helping people have fun.
25:26
It's when you do a haunt, it's it's about the excitement and the fun
25:30
of it. Right, we don't get paid or anything. It's just the
25:33
enjoyment of it of just watching people experience their fears. And again, the
25:37
price for admission, it's twelve dollars or ten dollars if you give a nonperishable
25:42
food item so there's a charitable aspect that as well. And what do you
25:45
do with the with the food ivans? They just go to various places or
25:48
how to raise christ Kitchens and another local church food bank. Now do you
25:55
guys when you have opportunity, and I know your time is pretty much limited,
25:59
you know during from September through October? Uh? Yeah, Jamie's actually
26:03
showed me a picture of the school. I'm actually familiar with the school.
26:07
But do you guys get to go and visit any other ones in the area
26:10
or do you have I mean, is it something that you try to do
26:11
or do you just have to maybe go online and find one? I mean,
26:14
how does that work? Because I know you probably get ideas from other
26:17
places. No, you just don't have an opportunity to do that. We
26:19
don't. I was gonna say, unless they did it, unless they did
26:23
it in April. You probably wouldn't have an opportunity. If you go to
26:26
like Myrtle Beach or if you go to Pigeon Fords, they run year round
26:30
so and go through those Okay, but no, honestly, but I don't
26:34
personally, I don't know about I don't just all have time to do that.
26:38
We just kind of come up with that as I mean, if every
26:41
year we changed as much as we can to the school, it's never the
26:44
same thing twice. If we do use the same room twice, we just
26:45
expand to it and makes it this makes it cooler. Well, and that's
26:51
a really good point because if people went last year, we don't want them
26:55
to say, well, I went last year and had a good time.
26:56
But but there's there's something new every every year. Every year it's brand new.
27:02
This year it's completely brand new. All right. I don't want to
27:03
give away too much, but can you give us a hint on what so
27:07
far, what you've had, what has been the biggest hit? I don't
27:10
want to give away too much, but is there like a hint you can
27:11
give us on what's been what's been the more popular thing, the scariest thing,
27:15
the thing that people are talking about, the most two hit sticks in
27:18
my moent the body bag room and the doorroom. Okay, the body bag
27:23
room of the doorroom. Okay, so you don't say anything more than that
27:26
swamp and the swamp. You got it. You guys got it all there.
27:30
You guys got it all, Jamie and done. I appreciate you guys
27:32
being here. Let me give you the details again, scared of view.
27:34

32:08
Albans. Laura was calling number three one herself a couple of free passes to
32:14
the big event in Saint Albans. It is called scare View. This is
32:16
the house October built. I didn't get the tagline in the house that October
32:21
built, and it's on High Street in St. Albans. Now again the
32:23
dates. They'll be doing it Tomorrow night and also on Saturday night. Then
32:30
they'll come back on Friday the thirteenth appropriate and then on Saturday the fourteenth,
32:34
and also October twentieth, twenty first, twenty seventh, and twenty eighth.
32:37
Laura Clark of Saint Albans calling number three one our self a couple of free
32:39
passes. Curtsy' down, Jamie and folks here, So we appreciate them for
32:45
tuning in. I was talking about the speeding on I sixty four earlier.
32:49
Tex says Dave. We have no speed enforcement in West Virginia. We need
32:53
much more police force. Wouldn't it be better to spend surplus on more law
32:59
enforcement than the deal with rex road closures and deaths every day. I can
33:01
tell you, as I said to somebody who drives I sixty four on a
33:05
daily basis, that the cops are out there now. I don't know what
33:09
the ratio is how many people that they pull over in the work zone,
33:13
but again, most of these accidents that are being caused. And we had
33:16
another year and maybe a month or so until that whole project is finished,
33:22
and it's been going on I think, you know sometimes since the Carter administration,
33:25
it seems like it's been going on for some time. Slow down.
33:30
The speed limit is fifty five miles an hour, and that's on the perfect
33:35
driving conditions. Okay, So if you have rain, which I think I
33:37
saw the forecaster is going to be some rain in the morning commute, I'll
33:40
promise you there's going to be accidents tomorrow. It's not fifty five when it's
33:45
raining. Probably need to go a little slower then, because you got people
33:47
merging. And I was talking to a friend of mine who's not from the
33:52
area, and he actually sent me a text and was talking about driving he
33:57
was going to visit his daughter, and he took I sixty four from southern
34:00
West Virginia, but he took it I sixty four into the Huntings in Barbersville
34:02
area, and he said, I was not prepared for that because he hadn't
34:07
been on that road in some time. About how fast people drive through that
34:10
construction zone, and he said, I opted to go back Route ten to
34:15
southern West Virginia. So again, just slow down, all right. Speed
34:17
limit is fifty five miles an hour through that area. Five eighty Live is
34:23
brought to you in part by a general hardware and number of Windfield from kitchens
34:28
to paint, to deck straight framing wood, roofing metal and anything else.
34:31
You know you going to find a general hardware number of Windfield. All right.
34:35
So Tex says I can't drive fifty five. I have a I'm not
34:40
gonna be honest. I'm gonna be honest with you. I have a difficult
34:43
time driving fifty five as well, but in that area you do need to
34:45
drive fifty five. Okay. So you know me, I've done this show
34:52
for over three years now, and as I was describing to someone the other
34:57
night, I guess I must be doing something right because the liberals say I'm
35:00
too conservative and the conservatives say I'm too liberal. I don't know. I
35:06
just filled up with coffee and sarcasm and try to entertain you for an hour
35:09
every day. But there is something that was on my mind. And you
35:15
know, I do these things from time to time I call davittorials where I
35:19
just kind of wax somewhat poetically on things, and I want you to kind
35:25
of hear me out on this one. Okay, earlier this, I guess
35:32
late last week, earlier this week, they started publicizing that there was going
35:37
to be this emergency alert system test yesterday. It's nothing new. These tests
35:45
are done every two to three years, and it was started they started publicizing
35:52
it. I guess, as I said last week, that it was coming
35:55
at around two twenty yesterday afternoon, so people had plenty of time to prepare
36:00
for it. This comes through ees Emergency Alert System formerly known as Emergency Broadcast
36:07
System and FEMA they're a part of this as well, and it goes through
36:12
your cell phones. They said it would last several minutes. The one I
36:15
got lasted about ten seconds of even that well publicized that it was going to
36:22
happen. It was all over the news, in the newspapers, online.
36:25
We talked about it yesterday. I reminded you of it. It was on
36:28
our websites. This test, as I said, is done every three years,
36:35
and in this case, was actually done within a two year timeframe.
36:37
The last one was being done in August of twenty twenty one. So yes,
36:42
mister and Missus America in tenfoil hatware, this exact thing happened in August
36:46
of twenty twenty one. But somehow you forgot about it. Okay, that's
36:49
fine, I get it. We're all busy. But what got me was
36:54
the things I was reading online about this test yesterday by seemingly normal people.
37:06
I mean, one would think one of the ones I read said that the
37:13
test would only be given to those who had chosen not to have the COVID
37:16
vaccine, or ones that were hardcore Donald Trump supporters. Now you think I'm
37:24
trying to be funny, but these are actual statements that I read online prior
37:30
to the tone, which by the way, did not signal the return of
37:34
Jesus Christ or the return of the White House of Donald Trump or anything like
37:37
that. I read one statement from a young mother, seemingly a bright,
37:43
intelligent, non crazy mother who said, quote, no way, I'm sending
37:49
my kids to school with that alarm thing going off. I'll do a long
37:55
sigh and a pause here for dramatic purposes. Ryan America, we have to
38:00
do better. We are the greatest country on God's green earth. But why
38:07
in twenty twenty three do we choose to believe in the hoaxes, Internet untruths
38:16
and the like ones that ten years ago we would have laughed at ten twenty
38:23
years ago we would have laughed at these things, but now we take them
38:30
as the gospel. COVID was not a hoax, the vaccine is not killing
38:36
millions of people. Trump didn't win. I mean, do we need to
38:40
go on here and doing my own research? Air quotes doesn't cut it.
38:46
If your research results tell you that a simple test of the Emergency Broadcast System
38:54
and FEMA, the Emergency Broadcast System which has been a part of our collective
39:00
lives since nineteen sixty three. And by the way, if your research tells
39:07
you that what we call in the business as an EES test is going to
39:10
emit some sort of bacteria that will ensure that you die from something that was
39:14
an actual statement too, is that that test was going to emit a bacteria.
39:21
I'm not quite sure how that works with a phone, but it was
39:23
going to emit a bacteria. So if your research tells you that, you
39:30
might want to go to another search engine and you may want to turn off
39:35
Newsmacs, maybe read the Bible or something. America, we we just got
39:39
to do better. We got to do better and stop believing this stuff.
39:45
Just stop. All right, let me knock out some texts here, because
39:51
you know that's going to give you a few Texas day THEES signal activated,
39:58
my vaccinated and now I'm ready five G energy, says a Texter. It
40:06
was executing order number sixty six. This is a Texter Texas yesterday the test
40:12
exposed people that you think are normal for mean absolutely not normal. What's wrong
40:16
with people? I'm just gonna say, you're all idiots in fools. That
40:21
was a Texter that said that. By the way, that wasn't Dave that
40:23
said that. Tex says the only place in the state, going back to
40:30
speeding, the only place in the state where the speed limit is actually in
40:32
forts is Somersville. Yeah, o, Sanna, maybe another one if you
40:37
travel through the Wyoming County community of Oceanna. If it's speed limit is thirty
40:42
five, don't do thirty six because because you will get a ticket. Text
40:47
says, dear day, the world is waiting to know. Are you a
40:50
lights on or a lights off kind of guy? Are we still talking about
40:54
haunted houses here? I'm talking about the haunted houses? Okay, that I
40:58
should have said. The textra sid, I'm talking about honted houses. Get
41:01
your mind out of the gutter. That's what the texture said. And I'll
41:07
be honest with you, I'm not. I mean, with all due respect
41:09
to Don and Jamie and those guys who do a fantastic job in the various
41:12
ones, It's it's not my thing. I'm not a hounted house kind of
41:15
guy. I'm not a scary movie kind of guy. Not that I'm afraid
41:17
of them. I just just doesn't interest me, even as a kid,
41:21
and it never really interests me. I'm like the only kid in the world
41:22
that couldn't care less about trick or treating because I just just just wasn't something
41:27
that that appealed to me. Five Indy Lives brought to you part by your

45:20
Dave, after hearing about another child being hit by car, I've been wondering
45:23
why we don't allow school buses to move to the center of roads and pick
45:28
up and drop off kids. Yes, crossing double lines. A friend of
45:30
mine in Illinois said they have done that where she lives for a long time.
45:36
My question to that would be, don't disagree, But my question that
45:37
would be kids still ride school buses. I mean, based on what I
45:42
encounter every morning. I didn't know kids ride road school buses anymore. I
45:49
want to throw this out there, and I've talked about a little bit in
45:51
the past. You're invited to attend a big party PA R Dash Tee benefiting

Bible readers and conspiracy believers likely shows a large overlap. According to a texture
46:45
texta says I'm afraid of haunted houses. Okay, texts says my mind was
46:51
totally in the gutter. That probably says a lot about me. I think
46:52
that had to do with the texture that asked if I was a light lights
46:57

Dave, if you didn't go trick or treaty, you must have hid
47:30
behind the bushes and stole the other kids bags, knowing how you like to
47:34
eat. I didn't say I didn't go trick or treaty. I just thought
47:36
I wasn't a fan of it, I believe it or not. As much
47:39
as I love to eat, I'm not a big sweets eater or candy eater
47:43
and now Ryan my producer, totally different story. But now I'm not Now

if they were handing out like you know, Hickory Farms gift packs, yeah,
47:51
it'd be all about that. Texas people just don't blindly trust anything anymore,

especially after watching countless conspiracy theories being proven to be true. Into a
48:00
text Texas David. I recently traveled to Cincinnati through Kentucky and returned through Ohio.
48:05
I saw seventeen police units in Kentucky and Ohio, but not one in
48:08
West Virginia. Tex says children in Canawh County ride buses. It must be
48:15
different out there in posh Putnam County. I do see some buses. I
48:19
do see a few, but I think it's not a Putnam County thing.
48:22
I mean, I started seeing this years ago when I was still living in
48:24
Logan County, that for some reason, kids just don't seem to ride the
48:27
bus anymore. I mean, I mean, and as a taxpayer, it
48:30
kind of pisses me off, and I go, Lie, I'm like,
48:32
take the buses off the road if the kids aren't going to ride them.
48:36
So I want to throw this out of here too. I had a conversation
48:38
with an old friend of mine this morning. In fact, we went to
48:40
high school together, and you may have heard Hoppy and Brad talking about him
48:45
astually. His name is David McCormick, and he's a businessman in Morgantown,
48:47
has an office here in Charleston as well, and he's involved with this political
48:53
with a political action committee which is called Move Forward West Virginia. Now.
49:00
The group held a good natorial forum a couple of nights ago at Lakeview in
49:04
Morgantown. Secretary of State Mac Warner, Attorney General Patrick Morrissey, Otto Magnate,
49:08
Chris Miller, and Deligamore Capito all took part in that. And I'm
49:12
told I wasn't there, didn't see it, but I'm told by people that
49:15
did attend that it was actually very very cordial, which is the nature of
49:22
a forum as opposed to an actual debate which may or may not happen.
49:25
I'm hearing that it could possibly happen. Gets still early though, And I'll
49:30
say this about David McCormick, I adn't talked to him many years, so
49:34
so I reached out to him about coming on the air, and he's going
49:36
to be on the show next Tuesday. And one of the things in talking
49:40
to him, and again we go way back, we went to high school
49:43
together. But one of the things I liked in talking to talking to him
49:47
about this group. And I haven't had a chance to really research them greatly.
49:51
I'm just basing it on our conversation that we had. This group called
49:53
move Forward. One of the things I like about it is it's a political
49:58
action committee that is strictly related to business issues, meaning they don't get into
50:06
arguments about abortion or any other social issues, the hot button issues. It's
50:13
strictly business, business, roads, infrastructure, etc. And I kind of
50:22
like that. Again, I'm not doing an endorsement of the group because I
50:24
don't know enough about him other than they I have conversation I had with mister
50:28
McCormick this morning. He'll be on the air top of the show on Tuesdays
50:30
talk about it. I know Mike Nolting of Metro News did an interview with
50:34
him. I heard Chris plain some of that this morning. Hoppy and Brad
50:37
reference to me yesterday. But it's a business political group and they're not focused
50:42
at all on social issues. I like it, and they're doing pretty well,
50:46
they got behind seven candidates in the twenty twenty two election, and five
50:52
of the seven one. Now, I didn't ask mister McCormick who, if
50:54
anyone they're going to support for governor. There'll be plenty of time for that,
50:58
letters I said. I'm happy though, to hear of a political group
51:01
that's staying away from social issues focus on what matters jobs, roads, broadband,
51:06
infrastructure, etc. I'm all on board, and as I said,
51:08
not an endorsement of the group. I certainly, I certainly do the endorse
51:13
their basic idea of what they're talking about, as far as staying out of
51:16
people's personal lives and focusing on things that truly matter to all of us.
51:21
Roads, jobs, infrastructure, taxes, things of that nature. I'm a
51:25
man of many opinions that full of opinions, or well full of something.
51:30
Texas big Gym said he would fix the speeding in construction enough. Well,
51:35
I don't know that any one person can do that, despite what he may
51:37
who said Texas Day. Since it has been found that those evil parents were
51:40
from Washington State, are there any checkings in if there were reports on them
51:45
back here? Wouldn't be surprised at all all right, we got to go.
51:49

51:51
