  Speaker 1: The murders of haverob Ryner and his wife Michelle by
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: their son just it's really it's thrown me for a
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: loop today. It really has not. Not because I was
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: a big fan and I mean, you know, as meat
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: and that he was perfect. But politically, yeah, we were
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: in two different universes. But I cannot celebrate. I cannot
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: be happy that he and his wife were killed, especially
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: especially by their own son. It just it saddens me.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: And I was disappointed today with the president on truth
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: social and I said so publicly on my Facebook page,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: and the number of people who came back at me
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: to tell me that, well, he said some nasty stuff
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: and he yeah.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: But.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: He has the right to say that nasty stuff. He
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: has the right to say stuff that is diametrically opposed
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: to ever everything I believe, you believe. He has the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: right to hate, dislike, distrust. That is that wonderful first
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: amendment of the beloved Constitution of the United States of America,
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: our Bill of Rights. Number one on the list. You
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: can say what you want without fear of the government
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: coming after you, and that should apply to fear of
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: crazy people coming after you too, And in this case
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: it doesn't. I mean, it doesn't look like there's politics involved.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: His son had mental issues and was a drug addict.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: And they were just at Cod and O'Brien's Christmas party
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: on Saturday. Everybody was dressed. It was a formal party,
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: and Nick Reiner shown up in a hoodie, in sweats
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: or whatever, and they got into a big fight. Rob
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and Michelle and Nick got into a big fight, and
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: everybody at the party could hear it. And then Rob
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: and Michelle left to go home. And nobody knows what
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: happened to Nick from there. So this all could have,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: you know, started there. And that's another reason, Frankly, as
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I said there before the grace of God go I.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: We are surrounded in our families, in our workplaces, at
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: our grocery stores. We're surrounded by crazies in twenty twenty five,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and it's only getting worse. Crazy people who shoot up
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Brown University, crazy people who shoot up the beginning of
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Honika ceremonies in Australia, Crazy people who unleash on schools
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: and churches. Crazy crazy. There's a lot of crazy out there.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: It could be in your house too. You don't know,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: None of us know comes out of nowhere sneaks up
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: on us, and to celebrate someone's death because crazy came
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: after them, even if you disagreed with everything they have
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: ever seen said, I just don't get it. I personally
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: can't be that way anyway. Your thoughts to A two
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: one nine eight six a two one WUTV, And that's
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: what I'm looking for. Let's get some folks on the
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: line here, John, you're on six to ten WUTV. Yet.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: All right, Chuck, how you doing?
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I'm doing okay?
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: So how are you good? I just I agree with
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: you one n Rob Reiner said some real nasty things.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: But you know what doesn't give Donald Trump a right
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: to say what he said. I love Donald Trump, but
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: he was wrong. And the whole thing is nobody should
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: celebrate someone being murdered. You should be praying for the family.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: You should be praying that this craziness stops. I mean,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: that's really all I got to say. And I just
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: hopeing the world gets better.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: John, I'm with you on that, buddy. Thanks very much
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: for the call. Eight two to one double UTV. And
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: is the number? It's uh yeah. And as Zach where
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: and I were talking about earlier, if it's some dirtball,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: some pervert that you know has been trafficking children and
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. If you know, if he
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: gets his head sliced open as soon as he walks
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: through the prison doors, I'm good with that. I don't care.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: But I cannot celebrate someone dying, no matter how they died,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: why they died, at whose hand they died. I cannot
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: celebrate their death simply because I disagreed with them that
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that just doesn't work for me. Eight two one nine,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: eight eight six or sheel you're on six to ten
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: double UTV and hello, all right.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: I'll try to be quick, Okay. That prior caller, I
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: I think he made some very good points that Ron
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Reiner was so nasty to Trump, always, so unfair of Trump.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Always.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Now I will.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: Say, I love Donald J.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Trump, and in this instance is timing. I do wish
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: that he would not have done this so quickly already.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: I wish I wish that Milania could have jumped in
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: and said, hey, honey, no, let's not test that now.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I do think he could have said something to the
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: effect of and some of the things you were suggesting
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: would be nice too. Were he could have just said
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: that man said a lot of nasty, unfair things about me,
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: and this was an unfortunate accident or not incident incident.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Now Trump doesn't have to go on and say how
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: great run rider is he is he. I wish that
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: he would have tried to stay more neutral, but you know,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: but either way, so hopefully, huh, somehow he'll find a
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: way to fix it. But Chuck, you keep saying that
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: you can't believe it happened at the hand of his
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: own son. This is what the thing about which I'm
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: wanted I believe.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: No, I can believe it happened. That's what I'm trying
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: to say. Rochelle. We are surrounded by this craziness. Now.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: People are losing their minds, and they're they're in our homes,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: our families, our workplace. They're all over crazy is going
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: is going crazy. It's all over me at the point.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: But do you understand the resentment that this kid must
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: have had towards his father. His father's worth millions and
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: millions of dollars, and that poor kid, at some point
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: in his life was homeless more than once. Now, I
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: know tough love, I understand tough love, but that's just
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: really screwed up, in my opinion.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Well, his father also much money. His father also paid
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: to produce a movie that he co wrote, gave him
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: co writing credits, he starred in the movie. He built
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: him up, and he went right back to what he
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: was doing. I mean, at thirty two years of age.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: How I don't know, you know, they're saying. Michelle at
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: the party was saying something about the the fact that
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: they just don't know what to do anymore. They've tried everything,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: and I can understand that frustration. I mean, I understand
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: what you're saying too. He feels like they ought to
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: help in they got all this stuff at their disposal. Yeah. Yeah,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: but I can understand them too, saying, man, what else
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: can we do? We've put him in programs, we put
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: in in treatment, built a successful film for him, We've
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: what eventually, what more can you do?
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Now? That's a good point. That's a very good point.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: So all right, you're great, check, great conversation.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Rochelle. I appreciate the call. Eight
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: two one nine, eight eighty six is my number. Uh, Emma,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: you are on six to ten WTV, and how are you?
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: I'm good? How are you doing.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I'm okay, despite the fact that I'm a little flustered tonight.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: I'm fine, but well, I.
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: You know, honestly, I'm a little flustered too. My mind
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: is kind of blown by some of the.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: Callers you've had.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: So I listened to you all the time, and honestly,
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: I disagree with a lot of your political viewpoints, but
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: I think it's good to keep an open mind and
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: you know, listen to everybody's perspective. And I also disagreed
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: with all i'd say a majority of Charlie her commentary
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: and viewpoints. But his murder was an atrocity and.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: It should have never happened.
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: And it's disgusting that somebody was killed just for expressing
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: their views. And even though this with Rob Bryan it's
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: not political, at least it appears that it probably wasn't,
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: I don't know, but to to make it out as
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: well it was justified because of a difference of opinion
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: and he said nasty things. I just I just can't
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: get on board with that. I mean, I think that's
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: a large issue we have right now, is just not.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: Being able to have dialogue.
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: And you know the fact that some people are saying
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: that this is.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: Well, you know he deserved it because he said this
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: or that.
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: Like I just I don't know.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Emma, you sound like a very thoughtful person. Can I
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: assume that you consider yourself a democrat?
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: I reluctantly do, Okay, I.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Was because when you were talking about Charlie Kirk, I was.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I was just listening to you and the fact that
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: you are so thoughtful, so even tempered. From what I
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: can tell, what was there anything specifically with Charlie Kirk?
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Was it what he said or how he said it?
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Or was it the tactic of going to college to
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: universities and kind of holding court? Was there anything in particular?
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Because I honestly I look at him and I wish
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: that I would have been more like him when I
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: was his age. I might hold my own against somebody
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: like him now, but when I was his age, I
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: was not nearly that articulate, and I kind of look
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: up to him in a strange way. I was just curious,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: what did not work for you?
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, he's definitely like that's something that I
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: definitely give kudos to him for the he was able
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: to connect with uh younger college aides kids and get
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: the excited about politics and get them motivated to vote.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, I've always, you know, been interested in politics,
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: and that's something that i've you know, uh studied a
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: lot in college. I guess. I just in terms of
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: his viewpoint it it seems a little manipulative at times,
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: the way he would.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: Uh, you know, describe describe certain things as you know,
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: the perfect way or the right way to to be
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: in terms of you.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: Know, stereotypical traditional uh lifestyles and just uh this is wrong.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: His debate tactice, I guess, uh, or what I had
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: the biggest issues with because while very effective, UH two
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: do most passers by. I mean that's how he built
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: up his whole reputation, and you know, debating uh, he
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: was always like skirting the issue and never really addressing
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: the actual ah problem at hand.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: But what he did, I don't necessarily agree with you,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: but I give him that's a very thoughtful response. And
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: I want you to know, whether you reluctantly call yourself
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: a democrat or not, you're always welcome here. I have
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: no you don't have to be somebody.
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: Who you all the time, you know, and I I
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: respect you, and I I love listening to your viewpoint,
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: and yeah, I mean I, you know, from as a Democrat, uh,
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: you know, shout out to you and if you have to,
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: Charlie Kirkski dynamic in your younger days and.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Probably oh my goodness, listen to you and me. Thank
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: you very much for the call. And seriously, anytime you
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: feel the need to participate or or you want to disagree,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: You're welcome here. You're welcome here. I'm I actually try
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: to always be that way. That's kind of been my
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: slogan for several years. Debate, discussion, disagreement with respect. It's
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: pretty simple. Before I get out of here, let me
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: throw this at your Columbus City school board expected to
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: vote tomorrow about a proposal to demolish for school district buildings. Okay,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: the buildings under consideration are broad Lay and Molar elementary schools,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Buckeye Middle School, and a mcguffee Road building which currently
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: houses Columbus Alternative High School. Here's my question, why not
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: try to sell the buildings first to someone that would
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: not have to redevelop a vacant lot. Du We don't know.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: A vacant lot might not have any value at all,
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: but one of these high fallutin well budgeted charter systems.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: They may want to buy one or two of those buildings,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: don't knock them down till you see what the market
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: is like out there for the established building. I know,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: I'm so silly and idealistic.
