- 6:47[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, twice as what the Jew sent her and it didn't kill her.
- 6:51[SPEAKER_25]: Shouldn't you get to go home after that if we survive that isn't that the tradition with executions?
- 6:56[SPEAKER_25]: I'm not a big fan of capital punishment.
- 6:59[SPEAKER_25]: It's just kind of, the whole ceremonial nature of it and the witness is, oh, we can't see it.
- 7:06[SPEAKER_25]: I want to watch and, you know, all of that stuff and it's just like creepy creepy.
- 7:14[SPEAKER_25]: uh... if they want to kill them just walk in their cell late at night and put a bullet in their head uh... but that guy did was a wife out in the aisle but anyway this woman survived she's in the hospital now they're gonna study remember they said this this is so much more so many what we're doing with two men yeah well i know there's some not
- 7:43[SPEAKER_25]: They want to get rid of her, there's some nursing homes that could probably send her to, wouldn't it?
- 7:48[SPEAKER_25]: You'd come out dead, but I don't know about that prison.
- 7:52[SPEAKER_25]: Like 7.5% of all executions since 1890 have been botched.
- 7:56[SPEAKER_25]: They say the person didn't.
- 7:59[SPEAKER_02]: You know, you'd like to see him squirm around a little on the gurney.
- 8:01[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, that's part of the justice.
- 8:03[SPEAKER_02]: That's justice, you know.
- 8:05[SPEAKER_25]: We're getting, you know, justice in any of that.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_25]: It's just 31 years later, some people want to see somebody
- 8:14[SPEAKER_25]: No thanks.
- 8:15[SPEAKER_25]: No thanks.
- 8:16[SPEAKER_25]: I want to do that.
- 8:17[SPEAKER_25]: I'd be a doctor.
- 8:18[SPEAKER_25]: Um, let's see.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_25]: Debates.
- 8:24[SPEAKER_25]: Story of the Times this morning.
- 8:26[SPEAKER_25]: I've got the NY21 and, I guess, Channel 6 wants to be a 6 out of the Connectity.
- 8:33[SPEAKER_25]: He wants the two to debate.
- 8:35[SPEAKER_25]: Concentino and Gendobine.
- 8:36[SPEAKER_25]: And so it's a spectrum.
- 8:39[SPEAKER_25]: And I really think.
- 8:42[SPEAKER_25]: Just looking at what I've heard so far, I think the gen-to-been people are being the most strapper as on it, you know, trying to say, well, we don't like the foreman, we don't know who's hired, we're doing, you know, to hear it, I'll make it simple for you, Mr. Gen-to-been.
- 8:56[SPEAKER_25]: Two chairs right here, two microphones, already here, you don't have to do anything.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_25]: Just set up a date and come right in here, we can do an hour or two hours, six hours.
- 9:06[SPEAKER_02]: I don't care, I'll do it for you, I'll try it.
- 9:10[SPEAKER_25]: in the public interest, convenience, and necessity.
- 9:13[SPEAKER_25]: And, you know, I'm the Fred Dicker of the North Country, so I'm the only one capable of actually leading up issue-based discussion like that.
- 9:20[SPEAKER_25]: So just do it in here, don't sit there, say, I don't know who the moderator is.
- 9:24[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know who the format is.
- 9:27[SPEAKER_25]: I'll tell you what the format is.
- 9:28[SPEAKER_25]: Just sit in those two chairs, there's two microphones, I sit in this chair with this microphone, I talk, and then you talk.
- 9:36[SPEAKER_25]: There's your format for you.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_25]: And I'm the host.
- 9:39[SPEAKER_25]: I'll do it.
- 9:40[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, one of the generous gesture on my part.
- 9:43[SPEAKER_25]: I didn't want to.
- 9:45[SPEAKER_25]: I'm not getting dressed up for it's radio.
- 9:48[SPEAKER_25]: But, um, I'll definitely do it.
- 9:52[SPEAKER_25]: Okay.
- 9:55[SPEAKER_25]: Oh, we got a call.
- 9:58[SPEAKER_25]: Good afternoon, Ronnier.
- 10:00[SPEAKER_02]: Good afternoon, Mayor.
- 10:02[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_02]: I have a quick comment on the, uh, the ad there by, uh,
- 10:10[SPEAKER_02]: I just saw it the news of a one-to-go yeah they actually said that Anthony was selling stickers of kill the police know what he said the other day said he didn't sell anything like that now isn't that uh... defamation of character
- 10:30[SPEAKER_25]: Well, yeah, but it's politics too, so it's a little different.
- 10:34[SPEAKER_25]: What they do is they take a snippet of information.
- 10:36[SPEAKER_25]: He runs a printing company.
- 10:37[SPEAKER_25]: God knows who submitted material.
- 10:40[SPEAKER_25]: I don't think he would act of, I don't think he are, you know, he's not even articulated.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_25]: He wants to kill the police.
- 10:45[SPEAKER_25]: I don't think anybody says that.
- 10:48[SPEAKER_25]: Like, except people who kill the police, that's, you know, it's different.
- 10:50[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, this is too bad that they have the smear him like that, and
- 10:55[SPEAKER_02]: And I used to be a Democrat myself years ago until I see all the shenanigans that they're doing now.
- 11:02[SPEAKER_02]: And so I'm a registered Republican now, but I guess you got a vote for the lesser of two evils nowadays.
- 11:11[SPEAKER_25]: Well, yeah, and I don't know.
- 11:12[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know.
- 11:15[SPEAKER_25]: you know the whole thing tried obviously everybody's picking a part everybody's finances their business and so on mr. gender being has a farm i'm sure you can find criticism of it mr. constant in our runs of printing company and marketing company and all of that i mean you can go through the you know i will god knows who he's made t-shirts for anything like that i don't think he's gonna make any i'm sure they have standards uh...
- 11:46[SPEAKER_02]: I guess you could go on to online or something and have them make your, uh, like, uh, well, you know, after he announced his candidacy because I'm a, I'm a true journalist.
- 11:57[SPEAKER_25]: I went on that site and I sent in a picture and had to make a, you know, a little roll of stickers from him.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_25]: That if they came out very nice, I mean, I, I didn't try to put anything, you know, crazy in there.
- 12:08[SPEAKER_25]: But, uh, yeah, I'm inclined to think that's just campaign as usual, but they are, you know,
- 12:17[SPEAKER_25]: these campaign operatives command they know how to use the fuzzy photos of people the grainy photos and all of that stuff and they're gonna do it to everybody yeah okay well that's all the only thing i had today you have a great day all right thank you yeah you know i'm i get it
- 12:36[SPEAKER_25]: the shock value and it's just like the other shock value and a constant you know people say well do you do what he said about North country labor is being lazy and drunk and identifying people to work as I'm he said something ten years ago well I don't know the context but you know a lot of times that's true yeah but it's going to get nasty and that's okay as long as there
- 13:04[SPEAKER_25]: are both of them getting matching funds from the state.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know.
- 13:07[SPEAKER_25]: That'd be a good question.
- 13:08[SPEAKER_25]: But the media won't ask that question.
- 13:10[SPEAKER_25]: You know why?
- 13:12[SPEAKER_25]: Because the media is getting that matching.
- 13:14[SPEAKER_25]: It was matching funds in terms of, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in, in

- 13:37[SPEAKER_25]: The governor just spoke.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_25]: Yep.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_25]: Right, the mayor says that the governor seems confident.
- 13:47[SPEAKER_25]: The mayor was going to try to meet AOC if she was there.
- 13:50[SPEAKER_25]: But I, so far, no.
- 13:52[SPEAKER_25]: I always tell the mayor, when you're at these things, get a picture with somebody, you know?
- 13:57[SPEAKER_25]: Proof of life, huh?
- 13:58[SPEAKER_25]: That's what we need.
- 14:00[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, he doesn't have to be, you know, there's a lot of you out there would be afraid to get a picture with AOC because I can't be seen.
- 14:06[SPEAKER_25]: Oh my god, if they saw that, it worked.
- 14:10[SPEAKER_25]: Well, primary Google doesn't care.
- 14:12[SPEAKER_25]: That's him, yeah.
- 14:15[SPEAKER_25]: Well, anyway, we got a call here.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_25]: Good afternoon here on the air.
- 14:19[SPEAKER_03]: Good afternoon, Mr. Mayor.
- 14:21[SPEAKER_03]: I just came from Joe Butler's funeral of you all a little bit.
- 14:31[SPEAKER_03]: And he was my science teacher and this cute little story, he was not only a good man, but he, he said, we're going to talk about Protein, Protein, protein, and no, he said, how long should we just spell it?
- 14:46[SPEAKER_03]: Or how should we just say protein, and he said, it was not protein, but it was Protein.
- 14:52[SPEAKER_03]: But he was a wonderful man.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_03]: I got to know him really well the last 10 years, I see him at Daniel's place.
- 14:58[SPEAKER_03]: We have wonderful conversations.
- 15:00[SPEAKER_03]: Just a wonderful man and a wonderful family and yes, I can't say how good things about him.
- 15:06[SPEAKER_25]: Okay.
- 15:07[SPEAKER_03]: How do you say I graduate in 1998?
- 15:10[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 15:11[SPEAKER_25]: No, no.
- 15:12[SPEAKER_25]: There are Butler where we were all saddened.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_25]: We mentioned that the other day and I'm sure there were a lot of people.
- 15:17[SPEAKER_25]: It is a certain.
- 15:20[UNKNOWN]: It was a different issue.
- 15:21[SPEAKER_03]: Very, very nice.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_25]: Was that the same patch or were?
- 15:25[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 15:26[SPEAKER_25]: Good.
- 15:26[SPEAKER_25]: Good.
- 15:27[SPEAKER_25]: All right.
- 15:28[SPEAKER_25]: Sounds good.
- 15:29[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_03]: All right.
- 15:31[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you.
- 15:31[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, thank you for the community.
- 15:37[SPEAKER_25]: Very good.
- 15:37[SPEAKER_25]: Thank you.
- 15:38[SPEAKER_25]: I know.
- 15:39[SPEAKER_25]: Why I'm glad we're able to name that pavilion after a year as a go, you know, not much gratification after you've passed or something, but anyway, good man, good man, no doubt about it.
- 15:51[SPEAKER_25]: Tax coming in, and the sky says, and then you talk over into a rupture like you do with everything.
- 15:56[SPEAKER_25]: Ah, that's not true.
- 15:58[SPEAKER_25]: Sometimes you gotta keep the conversation moving.
- 16:00[SPEAKER_25]: You can't just let people ramble them.
- 16:02[SPEAKER_25]: And if you don't like it, call the boss and say, I, if you'd rather have Jeff Cole do and you get the debate, I don't care.
- 16:07[SPEAKER_25]: I'll take, look into the famous or anything.
- 16:13[SPEAKER_25]: Somebody said, I'm requesting you interview Dr. Larry Schmigel.
- 16:17[SPEAKER_25]: I doubt the good doctor wants to be interviewed by me.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_25]: And so, if he wants to, again, microphone right here, I don't think there's anyone in my many, many years of doing the hotline.
- 16:32[SPEAKER_25]: There was no one who was walked out of this studio and said, boy, that guy, he's sandbagged me, he got me, he was a guy, no, I never do that.
- 16:41[SPEAKER_25]: I'll ask you a couple questions and then I'll ask you an easy one like, wherever you're born.
- 16:45[SPEAKER_25]: If you can't answer that, well, that's not your problem, not mine.
- 16:51[SPEAKER_25]: Now, the real question, I think it comes out of this plain incident over in between the Emirates and Israel, I don't like to throw the word miracle around, but it probably is a closest thing.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_25]: I mean, the fact that the captain who was attacked, bleeding out on the floor, was able
- 17:20[SPEAKER_25]: and then the uh... let's roll crowd came in got the uh... the terrorist and he is a terrorist and one of the people who colored the terrorist was a plumber from it is real who watched the TV show call aviation disasters in which they chronicle you know what goes wrong in plane crashes he told us this prime minister netting out who i'm not making it up to you know you
- 17:47[SPEAKER_25]: You don't watch the news, you don't watch the news.
- 17:49[SPEAKER_25]: Anyway, this plumber, he then grabbed the yolk, and I don't know how a 737 is set up.
- 17:57[SPEAKER_25]: I was looking at an old-style thing, you know, you pull a thing back, and basically what he did was it took it out of the steep dive, leveled it out a bit, and gave there were a couple of pilots who were dead ending, they were going to pick up a flight elsewhere, but they were on the plane.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_25]: and they gave them time to get up there and get in.
- 18:18[SPEAKER_25]: If the guy hadn't pulled the york back, it probably would have kept going and that would have been it.
- 18:22[SPEAKER_25]: It would have had 180 people dead on the desert.
- 18:25[SPEAKER_25]: And I'll tell you, if it had gone down that way, the Reform Americans on board, it would have been retribution swift and hard.
- 18:36[SPEAKER_25]: But here is the deal.
- 18:37[SPEAKER_25]: What did they fly in over there for if it's a war zone?
- 18:40[SPEAKER_25]: That plane takes off it, Dubai goes over the southern tip of the Persian Gulf, which is more or less nonsense is going on.
- 18:47[SPEAKER_25]: And then goes across Saudi Arabia over the Israel.
- 18:50[SPEAKER_25]: That's great.
- 18:51[SPEAKER_25]: And tourists go back and forth.
- 18:54[SPEAKER_25]: But, you know, if you want to fly to Tehran today, you can just go on the line and book or ticket, you can fly out of LA or probably Kennedy or something, you have to end up going through Turkey and get on Turkey Airlines and they'll take it to Tehran.
- 19:11[SPEAKER_25]: They go away, nobody should be going in and out of there.
- 19:14[SPEAKER_25]: I'm tired of hearing Trump, Mr. Trump, say that we obliterated them, and we're going to annihilate them, and yet you see pictures and they're driving all over the place.
- 19:23[SPEAKER_02]: No.
- 19:24[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.
- 19:25[SPEAKER_02]: So we'll see what happens there.
- 19:28[SPEAKER_25]: Hey, remember I told you about all that debris from homeless people up in the woods by East Hills?
- 19:32[SPEAKER_25]: Somebody says that property is owned by former councilman Cliff Holene over on, uh, on street.
- 19:40[SPEAKER_25]: I see he did a live of his live reports from there, you know.
- 19:46[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's not right.
- 19:47[SPEAKER_25]: I mean, it's just people going to live somewhere.
- 19:49[SPEAKER_25]: I don't care.
- 19:50[SPEAKER_25]: You know, we've had homeless people living over behind my property, not.
- 19:55[SPEAKER_25]: I can't really see them.
- 19:56[SPEAKER_25]: It's in that property between Pearl Street and Moulton Street up in the old, you know, industrial property.
- 20:07[SPEAKER_25]: that now they want to make it some kind of residential because of the planning people decided on that crazy.
- 20:14[SPEAKER_25]: It's crazy.
- 20:15[SPEAKER_25]: So anyway, I don't care if they live up there.
- 20:20[SPEAKER_25]: They don't bother me.
- 20:22[SPEAKER_25]: You know, and if they're neat and clean, they can, you know, set up on them.
- 20:27[SPEAKER_25]: I don't really care.
- 20:30[SPEAKER_25]: I see they're done on stage street.
- 20:31[SPEAKER_25]: Somebody posted a picture on Facebook.
- 20:33[SPEAKER_25]: I mean, I'm not making it up.
- 20:34[SPEAKER_25]: Not making it up.
- 20:36[SPEAKER_25]: some guy sleeping in a doorway with a chopping curtain next to him.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_02]: That's too bad.
- 20:43[SPEAKER_26]: Hmm.
- 20:44[SPEAKER_26]: That is too bad.
- 20:46[SPEAKER_25]: Somebody else texted in a message.
- 20:49[SPEAKER_25]: Move them to Sioux Island.
- 20:51[SPEAKER_25]: That's not a bad idea.
- 20:53[SPEAKER_25]: City's not going to do anything with it.
- 20:57[SPEAKER_25]: And that was another pipe dream from the solar panel guy.
- 21:00[SPEAKER_24]: Oh yeah, give me an option on that.
- 21:04[SPEAKER_25]: Councils lob their heads a little like the little dogs in the back window of a car or something.
- 21:09[SPEAKER_25]: But yeah, be good to let them sleep over there, who cares?
- 21:13[SPEAKER_25]: You can see them when you drive them by.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_25]: It'd be great.
- 21:17[SPEAKER_25]: It would be great.
- 21:19[SPEAKER_25]: Well, Diane's doing the news alone today at noon.
- 21:23[SPEAKER_25]: That should be younger than I am, it's not old.
- 21:26[SPEAKER_25]: But I saw Aaron Bischoff was filling in on the news a couple of days for coal.
- 21:34[SPEAKER_25]: You know, I know she, I've been told she doesn't like to anchor.
- 21:37[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know why, because she does a great job.
- 21:40[SPEAKER_25]: But, uh, presents well and everything like that.
- 21:44[SPEAKER_25]: I put her on all the time.
- 21:45[SPEAKER_25]: If you had, if you had her and Carrie Chever's doing the news, I'd watch it here.
- 21:52[SPEAKER_24]: And even if they throw Malin the middle for a couple of minutes, just for the male fans.
- 21:58[SPEAKER_25]: But yeah, nice job, Aaron.
- 22:02[SPEAKER_25]: you know sometimes people are so much behind the scenes you just don't see them and then I don't want to make any comments or anything we are not supposed to make a appearance a factor in life but she does a good job on there um you know if she did it every day hold my end up like walley peppers 755-1240 the phone number
- 22:30[SPEAKER_25]: uh... somebody taxed it in admit you took a ppp loan it was forgiven i don't admit it it's public record of course i did uh... this is the guy who i says i want you to interview doctor larry hmm like i said i don't care
- 22:49[SPEAKER_25]: But I doubt he wants something I can try to embarrass him by insisting he come in.
- 22:53[SPEAKER_25]: He's a school superintendent.
- 22:54[SPEAKER_25]: He's of a of a class in life intellectually and socially far above.
- 23:00[SPEAKER_25]: So I got my school tax bill today though.
- 23:02[SPEAKER_25]: So I'll be paying that.
- 23:05[SPEAKER_25]: Don't worry.
- 23:08[SPEAKER_25]: Ryan McDougall reports from Westchester County, no AOC down.
- 23:13[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, her her upstate trip wasn't too much.
- 23:15[SPEAKER_25]: I was hoping she was coming here.
- 23:19[SPEAKER_25]: jacket or something, you know, let it, let it do a little bartending.
- 23:23[SPEAKER_25]: Why don't hop not with the people, not down with those weirdos down it, weirdos and rapists.
- 23:31[SPEAKER_25]: I guess you just say it out in a Cornell, yeah, but yeah, maybe before, at some point I bet you'll be up here.
- 23:42[SPEAKER_25]: If she really wants to run for Senate, she needs to hit the whole state and
- 23:46[SPEAKER_25]: Have you noticed nobody wants to come to Watertown to campaign this year?
- 23:50[SPEAKER_25]: Was Tish James?
- 23:52[SPEAKER_25]: Was Saretha Comitarotti?
- 23:54[SPEAKER_25]: Haven't seen him in Watertown?
- 23:57[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 23:59[SPEAKER_25]: Comptroller candidates haven't seen him.
- 24:01[SPEAKER_25]: Haven't seen Bruce Blakeman or Bruce Blakeman?
- 24:04[SPEAKER_25]: Is the Coven?
- 24:04[SPEAKER_25]: Where is he?
- 24:06[SPEAKER_25]: He ain't coming.
- 24:09[SPEAKER_25]: Haven't seen any of these people?
- 24:11[SPEAKER_25]: Where's Claudia Tanny?
- 24:12[SPEAKER_25]: We invited her to be on the hotline and her opponent.
- 24:15[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know who the hell she is.
- 24:19[SPEAKER_25]: Same thing with those candidates in the 49th Senate District.
- 24:23[SPEAKER_25]: They're like mystery candidates.
- 24:25[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
- 24:26[SPEAKER_25]: We're just supposed to go, just check the line, just check the box, so what are you about who it is?
- 24:32[SPEAKER_26]: Oh man, I don't know.
- 24:35[SPEAKER_25]: That ballot this year is just begging for John Moore write-ins on a variety of things.
- 24:46[SPEAKER_25]: Now, let's see, 755, 1240, the phone number, if you'd like to give us a call, somebody said they sent me some message, some photos, no, I don't see them, you wonder if they're
- 25:07[SPEAKER_25]: Keep it all easy for people like me.
- 25:14[SPEAKER_25]: Well, there's that video of Cliff only over the place on off the Near East Hills.
- 25:19[SPEAKER_25]: It's interesting, I, I, if it's his property, and maybe he runs homeless sites for a living.
- 25:24[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know what he does.
- 25:26[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know if he's running next year or what he's gonna do.
- 25:29[SPEAKER_25]: I just hope if he does.
- 25:33[SPEAKER_25]: When you get your petition formatted,
- 25:37[SPEAKER_25]: Go to a place that has photocopies and get like 50 or 60 copies made and keep most of them at your house so that you're not running around in the middle of the campaign trying to find a copy machine.
- 25:49[SPEAKER_25]: And then have those and then just take a couple of them out when you go and don't go out in the rain and all of that stuff.
- 25:57[SPEAKER_25]: And if you need a few, just ask me out, I run into people, I'll get you a few, I can't get you like 50 years up.
- 26:05[SPEAKER_25]: But if he would just ask me last time, what was he five short as I'm like that, where are the judge?
- 26:11[SPEAKER_25]: Well, no matter what, even if I'd done 10 signatures that were valid for him, then he would have been three short.
- 26:17[SPEAKER_25]: Oh my god, they were going to get him off the ballot no matter what, but yeah, we'll see next year when he does.
- 26:25[SPEAKER_20]: Alrighty, we'll take time out from messages we'll be back with more in a moment.
- 26:28[SPEAKER_20]: Hi, I'm State Senator Mark Wallsick.
- 26:31[SPEAKER_20]: There is nowhere on Earth quite like upstate New York from our natural resources and landscapes to the grit and determination of our hardworking families.
- 26:40[SPEAKER_20]: I am incredibly proud to represent seven beautiful counties.
- 26:45[SPEAKER_20]: But your utility bill is too high, tax bill too big and the return on your hard work squandered in Albany.
- 26:53[SPEAKER_20]: Our state government has lost its way and New York has been a leader in what not to do.
- 26:59[SPEAKER_20]: One party rule has created a severe imbalance of power.
- 27:03[SPEAKER_20]: Nobody elected me to manage the decline of our great state and I'm fighting every single day to bring balance back to state government.
- 27:11[SPEAKER_20]: Please know that when you vote to send me back to Albany, you're hiring a Patriot who's not afraid to speak up for you and stand up against policies that make it harder for you to earn a living.
- 27:23[SPEAKER_20]: I appreciate your vote for me, Senator Mark Walsek.
- 27:26[SPEAKER_20]: Paid for by Friends of Walsek.
- 27:28[SPEAKER_16]: Hey, it's Nick O'Brien, but around here.

- 28:21[SPEAKER_16]: And come see me,

- 28:59[SPEAKER_15]: Ranger's contracting the roof people who call you back trying Need a roof get a road or a place We're on the case Haringers contracted the roof people who call you back 315-7-8-2-9-1-20-9 Can we just get this door?
- 29:18[SPEAKER_15]: Haringers contracted
- 29:28[SPEAKER_13]: The news and talk authority, W-E-T-A-M-2040.
- 29:35[SPEAKER_13]: It's all you need to do.
- 29:37[SPEAKER_25]: All you need to know, I am 1240.
- 29:39[SPEAKER_25]: It's the wonderful day.
- 29:42[SPEAKER_25]: I'm just going to look at something here.
- 29:45[SPEAKER_25]: You know, I hear these commercials and they all do it.
- 29:47[SPEAKER_25]: They all do it for Poly.
- 29:48[SPEAKER_25]: I'm going to fight for you.
- 29:51[SPEAKER_25]: Really?
- 29:53[SPEAKER_25]: Really?
- 29:55[SPEAKER_25]: I'm getting the fight go downtown at Saturday night or something like that.
- 29:58[SPEAKER_25]: And I get into a fight for anybody who want to fight for something.
- 30:03[SPEAKER_25]: Talk about making things hard to do business here or hard to live here.
- 30:08[SPEAKER_25]: Well, fight for this.
- 30:09[SPEAKER_25]: And I brought it up before and just say, well, we don't care if a bar pays.
- 30:13[SPEAKER_25]: Well, all right, we don't.
- 30:15[SPEAKER_25]: But whether it's a radio station, a lawyer's office, a gift shop, or whatever business, where people are trying to get by,
- 30:25[SPEAKER_25]: and you're forced to pay, I'm looking at it right here.
- 30:30[SPEAKER_25]: On your electric bill, or your whole bill, and not just the electric gas, there it is, sales tax.
- 30:38[SPEAKER_25]: Now there's all these other things, merchant functions, tariff search charges, all that sales tax, 11%, why?
- 30:49[SPEAKER_25]: And then you go over to residential, and this is bad too,
- 30:55[SPEAKER_25]: because electricity is a necessity and so it's heat.
- 30:59[SPEAKER_25]: These people who are fighting for us probably don't realize that, but it is true.
- 31:03[SPEAKER_25]: And we'll find out here.
- 31:04[SPEAKER_25]: Oh goodness.
- 31:13[SPEAKER_25]: Well, having trouble doing that.
- 31:16[SPEAKER_25]: We'll go over this.
- 31:17[SPEAKER_25]: Oh, done.
- 31:25[SPEAKER_25]: can be the same parcel of land like mine one side of the parking lot you tax at five percent sales tax on electricity other side of the percent because it's a business and what what would they say and all the well we do it because we can but i haven't heard any of these people who say they're gonna fight for making the North country more affordable talk about that they ain't fighting for squat yeah so uh... i don't believe any of them
- 31:55[SPEAKER_25]: Come in here and tell me you'll fight for something that's real.
- 31:59[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, here it is, residential.
- 32:04[SPEAKER_04]: You did it too.
- 32:06[SPEAKER_25]: No sales taxes, three percent.
- 32:09[SPEAKER_25]: I'm sorry.
- 32:10[SPEAKER_25]: It's even lower.
- 32:13[SPEAKER_25]: Why the heat percent?
- 32:15[SPEAKER_25]: Who sent his point differential?
- 32:16[SPEAKER_25]: Why?
- 32:18[SPEAKER_25]: What's the rationale?
- 32:20[SPEAKER_25]: Equal protection under the law.
- 32:21[SPEAKER_25]: There's no 14.
- 32:22[SPEAKER_25]: The men and men needs people's minds.
- 32:24[SPEAKER_25]: They don't know what the amendments aren't even.
- 32:28[SPEAKER_25]: So they don't fight for squat.
- 32:32[SPEAKER_25]: And I just say that on behalf of small businesses, you could be a florist, you could be anything.
- 32:39[SPEAKER_25]: So I don't know.
- 32:40[SPEAKER_25]: You know, I was thinking this week, and this is why I lament the loss of all the flower shops in town.
- 32:46[SPEAKER_25]: Especially Grace.
- 32:49[SPEAKER_25]: Now you know my mother's past so you know there's no flowers to send there and I don't use send funeral sprays although if you want to I don't even know if you could send any to the mayor's funeral today but if you did find it's good it's a good thing but you know what if you it's like pull soundies opening this weekend you like to send him a plant say welcome to the neighborhood you know good luck with everything just to be neighbor but there's no forest around you used to be able to call Scott Gray or you could text him in the middle of the night and
- 33:18[SPEAKER_25]: have that damn thing delivered, but there's nobody.
- 33:20[SPEAKER_25]: Now you can get a nice arrangement and some of those are pretty expensive, which is, you know, just a friendly plant that says congratulations, welcome to the neighborhood.
- 33:28[SPEAKER_25]: You can't get that anymore.
- 33:31[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 33:33[SPEAKER_25]: Just not a service available here.
- 33:35[SPEAKER_25]: Probably because places like that were charged 11% sales tax under utilities.
- 33:41[SPEAKER_25]: But after you do it on the air,
- 33:48[SPEAKER_04]: access to your blog for the first time in like four years good for you yeah i had an easier access point to it that's why because you uh... you left up the uh... it was either you or mr. constantino left up a link to your blog well my blog is anybody can look at it right there mergrams view
- 34:15[SPEAKER_04]: used to be able to act, I used to access the same way I accessed my mind with through northernnewyorkblog.com.
- 34:24[SPEAKER_25]: Well, it's nothing I've done, but I think you can go through newsjunk here, I think you can, it's mirrorgram.blogspot.com, what I don't know what it is, but it's not hard to find.
- 34:37[SPEAKER_25]: Hundreds of people find it every day, bud.
- 34:44[SPEAKER_25]: Okay, well, what's your point?
- 34:47[SPEAKER_04]: My point is, uh, I pretty much haven't mentioned a blog now, um, Diamond, I went there right and I was seeing a picture of, uh, what you put up about, um, you know, a homeless entertainment, uh, uh, uh, by these tails.
- 35:01[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 35:01[UNKNOWN]: And you called the East, and I respect you still, you still call it the real main East tails.
- 35:10[SPEAKER_25]: Well, it's up in that neighborhood around Hun Street.
- 35:19[SPEAKER_25]: Well, I don't know.
- 35:20[SPEAKER_25]: It's back in the woods somewhere.
- 35:21[SPEAKER_25]: You can go up there and look around if you want.
- 35:24[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I don't know exactly where you didn't put an exact spot.
- 35:27[UNKNOWN]: No, for sale.
- 35:27[UNKNOWN]: But if it's all back at the end of the M.P.
- 35:29[UNKNOWN]: There's always been going on.
- 35:31[SPEAKER_25]: Okay.
- 35:32[SPEAKER_25]: Well, listen.
- 35:33[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know exactly where it is.
- 35:34[SPEAKER_25]: I didn't take the picture.
- 35:35[SPEAKER_25]: It was on Facebook.
- 35:37[SPEAKER_25]: I fell a shot of video up there and you can look around.
- 35:42[SPEAKER_25]: Follow what's going on in local media.
- 35:51[SPEAKER_25]: We'll go to it.
- 35:51[SPEAKER_25]: Well, that's your loss.
- 35:52[SPEAKER_25]: I guess.
- 35:53[SPEAKER_25]: Go to a cliffhole needs a Facebook page.
- 35:56[SPEAKER_25]: He just did a live shot from over there.
- 35:59[SPEAKER_04]: No.
- 36:00[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I just wanted to point that it was all easier to make it to your blog that way when the waste put up.
- 36:06[SPEAKER_25]: Okay.
- 36:07[UNKNOWN]: But yeah, I did a, I did go there.
- 36:10[SPEAKER_25]: All right.
- 36:10[SPEAKER_04]: My opinion, so on.
- 36:12[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, fine.
- 36:13[SPEAKER_25]: Go ahead.
- 36:13[SPEAKER_25]: Give me your opinion.
- 36:22[SPEAKER_25]: Okay, well, it's a way of the world, so I don't know.
- 36:26[SPEAKER_25]: Hey, listen, I got a run.
- 36:27[SPEAKER_25]: Thanks.
- 36:27[SPEAKER_25]: You know, I don't know.
- 36:28[SPEAKER_25]: I mean, I hate to say it to my friends in mainstream media.
- 36:33[SPEAKER_25]: Not saying your fossils or dinosaurs or anything, but people like to know what's going on up the street around the corner and all of that stuff.
- 36:40[SPEAKER_25]: And that's how they find out whether it's nosy neighbors or Facebook or some other source might be here.
- 36:48[SPEAKER_25]: I mean, I'm not really, uh,
- 36:51[SPEAKER_25]: a great font of news but you know I get a lot of this stuff from elsewhere people sent pictures and you know that type of thing and somebody sent me a picture of that guy sleeping in the doorway on stage three now I ran up because he was not identifiable I'm not looking to embarrass people or anything but that's just the way it is yeah but I have to do you know I'm here
- 37:14[SPEAKER_18]: that there weren't any local florists anymore.
- 37:17[SPEAKER_18]: There's one on coffee and street right down the street from the radio station, Alan's florist on the left and the other brand there, is it open all the time?
- 37:25[SPEAKER_18]: No, not 24 hours, no, but it's open during the day.
- 37:29[SPEAKER_18]: I'm not sure exactly what they're hours are, but I'm sure they're open after the show is done.
- 37:33[SPEAKER_25]: Did they deliver?
- 37:34[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, they do.
- 37:36[SPEAKER_18]: And there's another one out on outer Washington Street called Nexitut Step
- 37:46[SPEAKER_18]: Okay, well, yeah, well, anyway, I'm just sure would, so yeah, and just stuff and I was a New York florist and all the rest of them.
- 37:59[SPEAKER_18]: Oh, yeah, there used to be a florist and a grocery store on every block.
- 38:02[SPEAKER_25]: I know.
- 38:04[SPEAKER_25]: Well, that's because first of all, the reason for that in addition to a lot of reasons, but one of the big reasons is I don't think people send funeral sprays
- 38:16[SPEAKER_25]: uh... i don't think people send flowers to like people are hitting on or anything like that or wives or anything like that you remember the old days when if the grace truck pulled up in front of your house that was like a a badge of honor somebody's birthday or yeah something special you felt great you said somebody's honoring me you don't those days are growing one of the last time you sent flowers to somebody
- 38:46[SPEAKER_18]: there you go anybody because anybody I know and someone passes away they usually ask for a contribution to a favorite agency or something that's going to do some good that's not going to just die and be thrown out.
- 39:00[SPEAKER_25]: Well yeah and flowers shouldn't be just for dead people I mean flowers are meant to brighten your life up I mean I would give me for anybody but I don't have I don't have.
- 39:10[SPEAKER_18]: I guess I don't hang around with any money that needs a lot of money.
- 39:14[SPEAKER_25]: We're suffering from that scourge of loneliness in the country.
- 39:18[SPEAKER_25]: It's bad.
- 39:18[SPEAKER_18]: That's true.
- 39:19[SPEAKER_18]: But your idea to send a plan to an opening business or something is a really good, you know, that's a very positive idea because plants survive for a while.
- 39:28[SPEAKER_18]: Anyway, you can probably order one at Allen's after, you know, going to Allen's after the show.
- 39:33[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, I'll have to wait.
- 39:34[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 39:35[SPEAKER_18]: I don't have a question.
- 39:36[SPEAKER_25]: Are you going to the harvest festival?
- 39:42[SPEAKER_25]: No, are you going to the harvest festival?
- 39:44[SPEAKER_18]: Oh my going, yes, definitely.
- 39:45[SPEAKER_18]: We're moving to the Volksmarch tomorrow morning and then hang on the festival for a while.
- 39:49[SPEAKER_25]: How long is that?
- 39:52[SPEAKER_18]: It's from 11 until 1.
- 39:53[SPEAKER_25]: No, well how long?
- 39:55[SPEAKER_25]: What distance?
- 39:56[SPEAKER_18]: It's the trail behind the Firmgrounds.
- 39:58[SPEAKER_25]: Oh, okay.
- 39:59[SPEAKER_25]: Well, that sounds like a good time.
- 40:01[SPEAKER_18]: Up through JCC and stuff, yeah.
- 40:03[SPEAKER_25]: Well, I hope you have a good time.
- 40:06[SPEAKER_18]: thing that bothers me this year is how come the city can spend so much money and resources on that and they're pulling back on stuff like parades in the downtown this is festival.
- 40:17[SPEAKER_25]: They don't know what this costs to put on.
- 40:20[SPEAKER_25]: And I don't know if anything's figured in terms of quote over time, set up time.
- 40:26[SPEAKER_18]: Vendors have to pay to set off and I'm sure.
- 40:29[SPEAKER_25]: The vendors pay but that's a
- 40:36[SPEAKER_25]: well i think the uh... company that does it was from people out it wasn't local people it was like the fair where you bring in well i don't i don't know if it's one of these deals with the i don't know if it's right offers or whoever does it i don't know the chairman american club i know had on brats and things like that yeah but the uh... really quick i'm talking about the rides and all of that and a waffle cones and every i mean i mean i don't know if the city has to pay to have that there or they just do it based on
- 41:05[SPEAKER_25]: what they collect in ticket prices.
- 41:07[SPEAKER_22]: I'm not really sure.

- 53:37[SPEAKER_25]: You know, when you're doing these interviews with these politicians, I was saying, they don't want got your questions.
- 53:44[SPEAKER_25]: But, one of it, I was thinking is interesting, and I'm not a great constitutional scholar, really, I'm not, but I mean, these candidates could offer at least a cursory summary of the amendments.
- 53:57[SPEAKER_25]: And I'm not saying you have to know everything about everyone.
- 53:59[SPEAKER_25]: Some of them are more obscure than others, but like the first amendment on religion, freedom of press, assembly, right to bear arms, second amendment, forth through the eighth protections against unfair search, and seizure and legal procedures.
- 54:15[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, I can't incriminate yourself.
- 54:18[SPEAKER_25]: Ninth and tenth, the reserving undeligated powers to the states.
- 54:22[SPEAKER_26]: Yeah.
- 54:25[SPEAKER_25]: Twelfth Amendment set up the current electoral college system.
- 54:29[SPEAKER_25]: Back then, you know, the person finished second on electoral votes got to be vice president before that.
- 54:34[SPEAKER_26]: It changed then.
- 54:36[SPEAKER_25]: Then, of course, the 13th, the abolishes slavery, 14th, the guarantees equal protection and due process under the law.
- 54:44[SPEAKER_25]: Wow.
- 54:46[SPEAKER_25]: That's an important one, isn't it?
- 54:49[SPEAKER_25]: And the 15th prohibits denying the right to vote based
- 54:56[SPEAKER_03]: There's a servitude anymore, I don't know if there is.
- 55:01[SPEAKER_25]: 16th Amendment, that's important, collecting income tax.
- 55:05[SPEAKER_25]: 17th Amendment allows popular election of senators.
- 55:09[SPEAKER_25]: Now then there's the 18th which set up prohibition and the 21st which got rid of it.
- 55:18[SPEAKER_25]: Of course, 19th was gave women the right to vote.
- 55:22[SPEAKER_25]: They had to pass the 18th.
- 55:26[SPEAKER_25]: because people needed to be sober to pass the 90s.
- 55:28[SPEAKER_25]: I think that was the rationale.
- 55:31[SPEAKER_25]: And there's a 22nd Amendment limiting the president's two terms.
- 55:36[SPEAKER_25]: 23rd, that's nothing gives three electoral votes to DC.
- 55:41[SPEAKER_25]: 24th, bands, poll taxes.
- 55:45[SPEAKER_25]: Hmm.
- 55:47[SPEAKER_25]: 26th, lower the voting age to 18.
- 55:48[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 55:53[SPEAKER_25]: Twenty-seventh delays in the change the congressional pay until after an intervening election that doesn't matter Um, they certainly don't do that in all, buddy But uh, well, somebody texted in a question do I consider myself a patriot?
- 56:10[SPEAKER_25]: I guess so Yeah, I certainly wish the best for the country Yeah, I would say I'm a patriot
- 56:22[SPEAKER_25]: I mean, I don't agree with every policy.
- 56:25[SPEAKER_25]: I think I'm smart enough to know that there are certain things that are right or wrong that go beyond mere jingleism and all of that.
- 56:32[SPEAKER_25]: So, yeah, I think I'm a pretty rational person on that, but I'd say I'm patriotic, how about you?
- 56:38[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 56:41[SPEAKER_25]: Now, I know that one candidate says he's a true patriot.
- 56:45[SPEAKER_23]: I guess we'll judge on that, huh?
- 56:46[SPEAKER_25]: You know?
- 56:54[SPEAKER_25]: Yes, Andy Cuomo's got a new home in the Hampton's, $9 billion, somebody just texted him.
- 56:58[SPEAKER_25]: Well, that's all right, he's had a rough life, yeah.
- 57:06[SPEAKER_25]: Well, he wanted to be mayor of New York, and then I guess living in the Hampton's now maybe he doesn't.
- 57:13[SPEAKER_25]: I'd rather be mayor of the Hampton, so tell you the truth.
- 57:17[SPEAKER_25]: Any other West Hampton East Hampton, any Hampton.
- 57:20[SPEAKER_25]: It's nice out there, right here.
- 57:21[SPEAKER_25]: I don't know if I've been that far out.
- 57:23[SPEAKER_25]: I've been out on the North Shore fairly far out, and certainly through Nassauk County in all that area, but I don't know if I've made it into the true Hampton's in life.
- 57:34[SPEAKER_25]: Good afternoon, Ronnier.
- 57:36[SPEAKER_26]: Hey, Mr. Mayor, hey, you were talking about Florida.
- 57:40[SPEAKER_26]: There's one on top of Washington Street Hill that I've used several times, I said, of flowers to my daughter out in Wyoming, and they were beautiful by the time they got there.
- 57:50[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah.
- 57:51[SPEAKER_25]: Well, did they really ship them or did they have a florist out there?
- 57:54[SPEAKER_25]: No, they were ship, well, they do what goes through another florist out there.
- 57:58[SPEAKER_25]: Oh, okay.
- 57:59[SPEAKER_25]: They don't ship them by the time they got the way home, and they'd be a little stand-alien.
- 58:04[SPEAKER_25]: Yeah, exactly.
- 58:05[SPEAKER_25]: Well, that's good.
- 58:05[SPEAKER_25]: What's the name of it?
