7:23
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, we got some big local news, I'm before I get to that though.
7:27
[SPEAKER_07]: How outrageous.
7:28
[SPEAKER_07]: Is that incident in Shreveport, Louisiana?
7:32
[SPEAKER_07]: Eight children.
7:34
[SPEAKER_07]: age one to twelve I believe and a couple of adults wounded but eight children killed including a one year old by the baby daddy he was father to seven of the eight i do that because you're getting a divorce or the marriages yeah so what so you kill eight children including a one year old
8:04
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, outrageous.
8:07
[SPEAKER_07]: So I don't know.
8:08
[SPEAKER_07]: But much grief for the people of Shree Ford and that family, there's a horrible, horrible thing.
8:15
[SPEAKER_07]: Let's see what else.
8:21
[SPEAKER_07]: Oh boy, oh, yeah, this story.
8:23
[SPEAKER_07]: This is kind of a big story for those who understand new onces, but impressively, he's out of city hall this morning.
8:34
[SPEAKER_07]: In case you didn't have the chance to go to news junkie, but it says in July of 2025, last summer, a very unfortunate incident occurred in Thompson Park involving the speed bumps.
8:48
[SPEAKER_07]: As a result, I, the city manager, have directed the appropriate staff to remove the speed bumps at this time.
8:55
[SPEAKER_07]: The city remains committed to public safety, and will continue to evaluate roadway conditions, traffic calming measures, and methods for sea controlling, improved speed throughout the city.
9:15
[SPEAKER_07]: Because this matter involves legal proceedings, it would not be appropriate to comment further.
9:21
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, probably not, but here's a couple I will.
9:25
[SPEAKER_07]: because I have no, I'm not in on it.
9:28
[SPEAKER_07]: First of all, the lady was killed last summer on the speed bump on her bicycle.
9:37
[SPEAKER_07]: Okay, there was controversy at the time, but it was like tamped down, tamped down, tamped down, don't talk about it.
9:45
[SPEAKER_07]: And then the family of the deceased filed a notice of claim against the city.
9:51
[SPEAKER_07]: Now what we don't know is was that followed up by actual litigation, because if it was, I'm sure the council in public wasn't told about it.
10:00
[SPEAKER_07]: So we don't know the status of that, but now all of a sudden they put out a press release.
10:07
[SPEAKER_07]: Wouldn't you just remove them with the same no cut?
10:10
[SPEAKER_07]: When they put them in there was no press release.
10:14
[SPEAKER_07]: And wouldn't you just remove them?
10:16
[SPEAKER_07]: There's had to be an advice of council.
10:22
[SPEAKER_07]: Having been through recent proceedings, I know our lawyers work, and that had to be out of advice on the health.
10:29
[SPEAKER_07]: So the speed bumps are out in Thompson Park.
10:37
[SPEAKER_07]: Interesting.
10:39
[SPEAKER_07]: Interesting.
10:41
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, anyway, 755, 1240 is our phone number.
10:45
[SPEAKER_07]: If you want to be on the air, talk about that or anything else.
10:52
[SPEAKER_07]: I did not steal K-Cups from the station, but apparently my comments triggered a couple of people, so some people are such haters out there.
11:06
[SPEAKER_07]: Now the K-Cups we use over at the bar are Dunkin' Donutwins, purchased from Blue Mountain springs.
11:13
[SPEAKER_07]: They have a whole variety and the ones here at the station are different brands, so no I do not take them.
11:19
[SPEAKER_07]: I can't speak for other staff members, you know.
11:23
[SPEAKER_07]: Good afternoon, good afternoon here, I'm here.
11:27
[SPEAKER_13]: Good afternoon, Mayor.
11:28
[SPEAKER_13]: I had to call in today because I've been meaning to call in, but I just wanted to say how pleased I was when I got my mail Saturday, and I received a copy of a list of five
11:48
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, yeah, because you're a player, you know, you're a big deal.
11:52
[SPEAKER_13]: Oh, I've been supporting her.
11:54
[SPEAKER_13]: Nice.
11:54
[SPEAKER_13]: Thank you, note, for the past 14 years.
11:58
[SPEAKER_13]: And I started to read it.
12:00
[SPEAKER_13]: And of course, it's written well and very well, you know, Doc, you made it.
12:06
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, I got one, too.
12:07
[SPEAKER_07]: I just, uh, I'm just putting it on my coffee table to make me look more erudite or whatever.
12:16
[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, that too.
12:18
[SPEAKER_13]: I just want, I really just wanted to share that.
12:22
[SPEAKER_07]: Hmm.
12:22
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, that's good.
12:23
[SPEAKER_07]: Hey, what do you think of removing the speed bumps in Thompson Park?
12:27
[SPEAKER_07]: What about an announcement on that today?
12:30
[SPEAKER_13]: That seems like a bad idea, doesn't it?
12:34
[SPEAKER_07]: Dude.
12:34
[SPEAKER_13]: I was like silent, please, man.
12:36
[SPEAKER_13]: They called him.
12:38
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, no, but they had that in the press release.
12:41
[SPEAKER_07]: It cites the accident from last summer.
12:43
[SPEAKER_07]: So there's a cause of a fact here.
12:45
[SPEAKER_07]: Remember the lady that got killed up there?
12:49
[SPEAKER_13]: Yeah, yeah, so why wouldn't the speed?
12:53
[SPEAKER_13]: What was the, I didn't, I don't know the detail, I remember, but they're removing the speed bumps.
13:00
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, well, there was a lot of questions of whether they should be in there anyway because of bicyclists and others.
13:07
[SPEAKER_07]: Oh, my goodness.
13:09
[SPEAKER_07]: And there's other ways to control speed, but I think it's, I think this is not advice of council, because I think they're getting sued.
13:19
[SPEAKER_07]: because the family of the deceased did file a notice of claim whether they perfected a lawsuit, I don't know for sure, because they will never tell us that.
13:28
[SPEAKER_07]: But just having been around this stuff, normally if you were going to put something when they put them in, they didn't put out a press release.
13:39
[SPEAKER_07]: And if they were going to take them out because they reconsidered having them, they just take them out.
13:44
[SPEAKER_07]: There's no reason to put out a press release saying you're taking out speed bumps.
13:49
[SPEAKER_07]: You see what I mean?
13:51
[SPEAKER_07]: I mean, it is and in the press release, they cited the accident.
13:58
[SPEAKER_07]: I'm not a fancy lawyer, but I'd say that was on advice of council, that press release, because if you were going to take them out, it's like anything else, if you were, you know, whatever you're doing.
14:18
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, I don't know, or whether this is part of an overall agreement that they take them out, announce it, and then announce the settlement later, I don't know.
14:28
[SPEAKER_07]: I think there's more to this than meets the eye, maybe I'm paranoid, maybe I'm crazy.
14:35
[SPEAKER_07]: But I do not understand the reason to put out a press release saying, because no, like you, you weren't thinking of speed bumps today.
14:45
[SPEAKER_07]: So nobody is in town.
14:46
[SPEAKER_07]: So why would you put out a press release?
14:49
[SPEAKER_07]: If you were going to put him in, you might want to put a press release out, but taking them out?
14:56
[UNKNOWN]: No.
14:56
[SPEAKER_13]: Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't came after you, right?
15:01
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, yeah, I'm, you know.
15:05
[SPEAKER_13]: I understand.
15:06
[SPEAKER_07]: I do understand that.
15:13
[SPEAKER_07]: They basically controlled you, and they managed your demise, in other words, well, we minimized what you had to pay so aren't we wonderful, and it was a good conclusion.
15:25
[SPEAKER_07]: When, really, you got screwed in a whole deal from the get-go, because it's a rigged deck.
15:30
[SPEAKER_07]: So, you know, I had a situation like that recently, different circumstances.
15:36
[SPEAKER_07]: This is, in all the division of human rights,
15:43
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, in this thing with the speed bumps, I don't know, it just seems strange to me you would put out a press release saying we're removing.
15:51
[UNKNOWN]: Yeah, I agree, I agree.
15:55
[SPEAKER_07]: I wonder if the mainstream media will pick up on that.
16:00
[SPEAKER_13]: I don't know, you know what I'll say with do though, I was, I don't know who it, who it's spearhead this.
16:06
[SPEAKER_13]: Wouldn't it be nice to have like a class action suit?
16:11
[SPEAKER_13]: against like, um, I don't know, maybe, Dr. Fauci or, um, managed, uh, COVID, nonsense.
16:23
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, but he likes to do something.
16:24
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, he should be in jail, you know?
16:26
[UNKNOWN]: He should be in jail, and, um, I wouldn't mind getting, getting a little money from the government, because,
16:36
[SPEAKER_07]: why can't we have reparations for everything they put us through which at many cases did result in physical harm it did result in physical harm right that whole thing was not without consequences medically for a lot of people yes yes it was certainly was and uh... uh... doctor phoenix oxa his next thing thing and you don't hear a word about it i know
17:06
[SPEAKER_07]: All right, well, thank you.
17:08
[SPEAKER_07]: All right, thank you.
17:08
[SPEAKER_07]: Okay, thank you.
17:10
[SPEAKER_07]: I know.
17:11
[SPEAKER_07]: Right to life lady there.
17:12
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I'm in favor of life Good afternoon, you're on the air.
17:17
[SPEAKER_15]: I'm later on the speed bumps.
17:18
[SPEAKER_15]: Yeah, I don't think this should have been put in there to begin with I told you what happened to me.
17:24
[SPEAKER_15]: I drove my car over one.
17:26
[SPEAKER_15]: I came on top of that coming From the park by the go and I hit it above
17:31
[SPEAKER_15]: probably 30 miles an hour and I snapped the shock absorber on my vehicle cost me ninety dollars.
17:38
[SPEAKER_07]: Mm-hmm.
17:38
[SPEAKER_15]: I'll be sure to call suit the city but I didn't.
17:41
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, you don't want to admit you were speeding because you were.
17:44
[SPEAKER_15]: Yeah.
17:46
[SPEAKER_15]: Maybe 25 30 miles an hour.
17:48
[SPEAKER_15]: Mm-hmm.
17:48
[SPEAKER_15]: Here we go.
17:50
[SPEAKER_15]: But the thing on the lady was killed, uh, was she on a knee-beat bike, married dinner, or just a regular bike?
17:57
[SPEAKER_07]: I think it was an EV bike.
18:01
[SPEAKER_15]: I don't know.
18:04
[SPEAKER_07]: It was a very warm day if she should have had one.
18:07
[SPEAKER_15]: She didn't have one.
18:09
[SPEAKER_07]: Right.
18:09
[SPEAKER_15]: I think the city will sell this case.
18:11
[SPEAKER_15]: I don't know how much to look at for, but it might be in a long run.
18:14
[SPEAKER_15]: The best thing to do.
18:16
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, the mitigation, not wearing a helmet, might mitigate the city's losses if it went to.
18:23
[SPEAKER_07]: But.
18:24
[SPEAKER_15]: Why did didn't go around the speed bump?
18:26
[SPEAKER_15]: I don't know.
18:26
[SPEAKER_15]: There's room to get around.
18:28
[SPEAKER_15]: I almost went around.
18:29
[SPEAKER_15]: Well, the problem was you got room to get a car around there coming up the hill.
18:34
[SPEAKER_07]: You're not expecting it, and it was not adequately marked, but you're really not expecting it.
18:39
[UNKNOWN]: Well, it was marked, but it was too close to the speed bump.
18:42
[UNKNOWN]: I made that point a while ago.
18:43
[UNKNOWN]: The science should have been down the road.
18:46
[SPEAKER_07]: Now, here's the question.
18:47
[UNKNOWN]: Now, here's the question.
18:48
[UNKNOWN]: Here's the question.
18:48
[SPEAKER_15]: There's no reason to have a speed bump in that area.
18:52
[SPEAKER_07]: Right, but when they put them in, there was no announcement, public announcement, hey, we've put speed bumps in, but they put out a press release to say we're removing a speed bump and they're citing the accident as the reason.
19:06
[SPEAKER_07]: I think that's problematic.
19:08
[SPEAKER_07]: If the city hasn't already quietly admitted some level of culpability.
19:15
[SPEAKER_07]: I don't know.
19:16
[SPEAKER_15]: I would soon.
19:16
[SPEAKER_07]: Hey, did we have a two-minute, somebody who keeps writing me and they say we got a $2 million personnel settlement a couple of years ago when I was in the hospital and concerning the park superintendent was that true?
19:32
[SPEAKER_15]: Oh, who was that?
19:34
[SPEAKER_07]: Oh, God, it was a, I don't know what was the name I forgot or anything.
19:37
[SPEAKER_07]: Nice.
19:37
[SPEAKER_07]: I got along with her very well.
19:38
[SPEAKER_07]: I liked her but.
19:39
[SPEAKER_15]: Park superintendent.
19:41
[SPEAKER_15]: I don't know we had a park superintendent.
19:42
[SPEAKER_07]: Park superintendent.
19:46
[SPEAKER_15]: I was in it, yes, she was gay man, she was supposed to lie to the house, you know what I mean?
19:52
[SPEAKER_15]: No, no, no, that's the problem.
19:54
[UNKNOWN]: No doubt about it.
19:55
[SPEAKER_07]: You can't say that.
19:56
[UNKNOWN]: Well, she was.
19:59
[SPEAKER_07]: You can't say that.
20:00
[UNKNOWN]: She was on both sides of the aisle, and her personal life, that might have had a problem.
20:05
[SPEAKER_15]: Maybe she claimed that the city manager didn't like the gay agenda.
20:10
[SPEAKER_07]: He was fired in my correct.
20:13

20:57
[SPEAKER_07]: I don't think so.
20:59
[UNKNOWN]: I do.
20:59
[UNKNOWN]: I disagree 100% there.

21:06
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
21:06
[SPEAKER_15]: Of course, you won't come on this show and explain anything.
21:11
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
21:11
[SPEAKER_07]: Now here's a tax department.
21:12
[SPEAKER_07]: That was one of the problems over here.
21:16
[SPEAKER_07]: Okay, well, we're not okay.
21:18
[SPEAKER_07]: We ended up getting rid of the guy.
21:20
[SPEAKER_07]: I met guy up in a park.
21:22
[SPEAKER_07]: He seemed like a teacher.
21:23
[SPEAKER_07]: Oh, that was fan.
21:24
[SPEAKER_07]: Rick Finn was a fan.
21:25
[SPEAKER_14]: Yeah, Rick Finn.
21:26
[SPEAKER_07]: I never mad at what I did meet him a few years earlier, but yeah.
21:31
[SPEAKER_07]: He had a problem with that lifestyle.
21:32
[UNKNOWN]: He's not alone there, but you can't say anything about it.
21:35
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, I know.
21:35
[SPEAKER_07]: I don't know.
21:38
[SPEAKER_07]: Well listen I got a tax message says taking out the bumps is admitting your guilt that the bumps car should never have been put in settlement will be done under the table.
21:48
[SPEAKER_07]: This to me, this statement to me, just knowing and I got to talk to a couple of people I know there's no things about the law, but I think there's a settlement in reach.
22:07
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, yeah, that's the way the lawyers present you.
22:09
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, if you take it to a trial or a hearing, it'll crush you even more, and that's how they shake you down.
22:15
[SPEAKER_15]: Yeah, we do that a lot.
22:16
[SPEAKER_15]: We set a lot of cases out of quote you never hear about them.
22:20
[SPEAKER_15]: Yeah.
22:20
[SPEAKER_15]: Well, I don't know why they didn't go around the speed bump.
22:22
[SPEAKER_15]: I have no idea.
22:24
[SPEAKER_15]: There's really good around that one speed bump.
22:26
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, there is, if you know it's there, but you know, you're right.
22:29
[SPEAKER_15]: Many of this is there to sign.
22:31
[UNKNOWN]: It was too close to the speed bump.
22:33
[SPEAKER_07]: And many of us have been in the park for years and years and years.
22:36
[SPEAKER_07]: You wouldn't think of it.
22:40
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
22:41
[UNKNOWN]: You know, okay, Mayor.
22:42
[SPEAKER_07]: Hi, thank you.
22:43
[SPEAKER_07]: You bet.
22:44
[SPEAKER_07]: I know.
22:45
[SPEAKER_07]: Okay.
22:46
[SPEAKER_07]: The angry man there.
22:49
[SPEAKER_07]: Uh, let's see.
22:50
[SPEAKER_07]: Hmm.
22:58
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, I mean, it was a call.
23:00
[SPEAKER_07]: Good afternoon.
23:00
[SPEAKER_07]: You're on the air.
23:02
[SPEAKER_16]: Hey, Jeff.
23:02
[SPEAKER_16]: How are you doing today, buddy?
23:03
[SPEAKER_07]: Good.
23:05
[SPEAKER_16]: Hey, did you ever have a shuttle when I saw your, uh,
23:11
[SPEAKER_07]: on the all from a week or so ago all you know what you know about the motorists insurance company said they would cover so i think we're all set on their just got to get the damn contract out there and uh... that's the good news because a lot of times a lot of people are trying around with no insurance well i was lucky in that sense he had insurance and uh...
23:39
[SPEAKER_16]: the day they're coming down towards your power.
23:41
[SPEAKER_16]: And I said, how did he make it between that wall and that telephone pole?
23:45
[SPEAKER_16]: It looks like it'd be a very close call.
23:48
[SPEAKER_16]: I mean, how did he even go over the curb?
23:49
[SPEAKER_16]: He must have.
23:51
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I've watched it a hundred times and it's, uh, he was moving right along.
23:56
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, you think like the, um, well, it's a state highway.
24:00
[SPEAKER_07]: So maybe the DOT engineers or the city engineer.
24:04
[SPEAKER_07]: You think they'd want to look at that video and
24:09
[SPEAKER_07]: But they don't show much interest in his stuff, though.
24:12
[SPEAKER_16]: Yeah.
24:13
[SPEAKER_16]: And another note I know, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
24:39
[SPEAKER_16]: Yeah, yeah, I get it the first time to come up.
24:42
[SPEAKER_16]: I didn't even realize it was there.
24:43
[SPEAKER_16]: So I got on top of it.
24:44
[SPEAKER_16]: I was coming up there.
24:47
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, to me it was.
24:50
[SPEAKER_16]: I know they're probably going to remove it.
24:52
[SPEAKER_16]: Cost that much to put them in.
24:53
[SPEAKER_16]: Now they're going to remove it.
24:54
[SPEAKER_16]: So they see where their money is going.
24:55
[SPEAKER_16]: Stupid me.
24:57
[SPEAKER_16]: It's just stupid.
24:59
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
25:01
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, maybe they can put them.
25:02
[SPEAKER_07]: Maybe they can move the speed bumps to Pearl Street.
25:04
[SPEAKER_07]: I don't know.
25:07
[SPEAKER_16]: Maybe you should put barriers in front of the fire.
25:09
[SPEAKER_16]: It probably never happened again in our lifetime, but you know.
25:12
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, you know, when I suggested that, everybody said, well, you shouldn't get something for free.
25:16
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, first of all, the city has a bunch of jersey barriers.
25:19
[SPEAKER_07]: It's sitting there.
25:21
[SPEAKER_07]: And, um, not, not that big a deal.
25:25
[SPEAKER_16]: Yeah, right, you know, if they'd even come pick them up, you know, well, you sort of come one front of the fire would never be.
25:32
[SPEAKER_07]: And so, wait, I look at it.
25:33
[SPEAKER_07]: Okay.
25:34
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, Rich, thank you.
25:35
[SPEAKER_07]: I got a run now.

[SPEAKER_07]: Hello, we are on the hotline.
25:41
[SPEAKER_08]: Hey, Major, how are you doing?
25:42
[SPEAKER_07]: Good.
25:44
[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, there was actually a channel news segment with a regular bicycle, a cyclist, probably, a couple months before that happened with the e-bikes, that made a complaint saying there should be a cutout in the speed bump for bicycle owners and e-bikes and such.
26:06
[SPEAKER_08]: and I just got slept on her bed rug and got ignored and the situation happened with the goal of her lady that got killed.
26:17
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
26:18
[SPEAKER_08]: So there you go.
26:20
[SPEAKER_08]: All right.

[SPEAKER_07]: W-A-T-N. Hey, I'm 1240 W-A-T-N, good afternoon.
29:48
[SPEAKER_07]: I just checked with a one-league expert, a seven-line retainer here, of course.
29:53
[SPEAKER_07]: I was said that, yeah, it's in a potential or existing litigation scenario.
30:00
[SPEAKER_07]: You would never put out a press release saying you're removing speed bumps.
30:05
[SPEAKER_07]: It's a admission of guilt, so there's a very good possibility
30:11
[SPEAKER_07]: announcement of the removal of the speed bumps is in conjunction with some kind of proposed settlement uh... could who knows maybe will find out it tonight's meeting uh... it's probably something the council knows nothing about and all of that so
30:30
[SPEAKER_07]: If that's the case, I could be wrong.
30:33
[SPEAKER_07]: I could be wrong.
30:33
[SPEAKER_07]: You could say, what do you know?
30:35
[SPEAKER_07]: You're not a lawyer.
30:37
[SPEAKER_07]: No, but you've been around enough of them.
30:40
[SPEAKER_07]: You catch on eventually, how it works.
30:43
[SPEAKER_07]: Good afternoon, you're on the air.

[SPEAKER_09]: Just had to make sense for redemption center advertisement.
30:55
[SPEAKER_09]: My father is going through invasive squamous cell carcinoma in nose, which entails removal surgery of tumor and tissue around his nose.
31:06
[SPEAKER_09]: All this year is going to be bad on radiation and everything to heal back up.
31:10
[SPEAKER_09]: He's retired 69 years old, the veteran.
31:13
[SPEAKER_09]: I want to know how I have a can drive going on at make sense redemption on the racetrie.
31:19
[SPEAKER_09]: All you have to do is show up and say that you want to donate your can to the Randy Roche fund.
31:26
[SPEAKER_09]: Anything any little bit helps.
31:28
[SPEAKER_09]: They're on a fixed income and I just really appreciate the airtime to be able to get that message out there Could try to help my dad and my mom.

[SPEAKER_09]: Um, yeah, he just show up and say you want to donate to Randy roaches fund and uh anything and everything helps guys And I appreciate that.
31:56
[SPEAKER_07]: No, I know a lot of roaches.
31:58
[SPEAKER_07]: Uh, he's the roaches rover on uh Lansing street that area.
32:03
[SPEAKER_09]: Yep.
32:03
[SPEAKER_09]: That's his brother actually.
32:05
[SPEAKER_09]: That's my uncle Jeff.
32:06
[SPEAKER_07]: There was a Bob rocher Who ran for city council, right?
32:09
[SPEAKER_09]: Yep.
32:10
[SPEAKER_09]: That was my uncle Bob.
32:11
[SPEAKER_09]: Yep, and then my cousin Jesse was actually part of council for a little bit
32:15
[SPEAKER_09]: And then he ended up moving outside of the city so we had to submit a seat.
32:19
[SPEAKER_07]: Okay.
32:20
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, good.
32:20
[SPEAKER_07]: I mean, hopefully Pete's already in a rupture as far as I know.
32:23
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't agree with him.
32:24
[SPEAKER_09]: I don't agree stuff like that should be on the roadway anyway.
32:28
[SPEAKER_07]: What speed bumps?
32:30
[SPEAKER_09]: No.
32:30
[SPEAKER_09]: The speedway can be e-bikes and all that.

32:32
[SPEAKER_07]: Oh, e-bikes too.
32:33
[SPEAKER_09]: Yeah.
32:33
[SPEAKER_09]: I'm sure it shouldn't be on a roadway.
32:36
[SPEAKER_07]: I agree with it there, too, but there's a little bit of blame all around, but a great is just sad that someone lost their life over it.
32:43
[SPEAKER_07]: I agree so yeah, okay, well, thank you, and that's makes sense for the fund drive and up I'm literally saying Randy Roche fund if you would like to donate your cans models to the foundation and it's much appreciated All right, very good.

34:19
[SPEAKER_10]: Saturday was beautiful, beautiful weather.
34:23
[SPEAKER_10]: Yes, I'm going to say about the speed bumps.
34:26
[SPEAKER_10]: Nobody knew about them when they were coming in.
34:28
[SPEAKER_10]: And then they get a big pulse.
34:31
[SPEAKER_10]: They're going to take them out.
34:32
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm sure there's a lot of listeners that would be like leaving right there.
34:37
[SPEAKER_10]: We didn't want them in the first place, but
34:42
[SPEAKER_10]: I'm just on that one and they bite course I'm totally got some driving all over the place if you want to go you know whatever you can't afford a car or whatever the reason is you know follow the graphic rules but uh... i have a question uh... save of ladies leasing the house right so she's changing her mail in the address uh... city resident has a rent here
35:11
[SPEAKER_10]: The property owner say he lives out of state or chair cues or whatnot.
35:16
[SPEAKER_14]: Right.
35:16
[SPEAKER_10]: There's a property owner that pays the taxes, get the vote on this.
35:21
[SPEAKER_10]: Say you didn't have the vote for the speed bump say, but in anything in the city, but the runner does or the all get the vote.
35:30
[SPEAKER_07]: No, voting rights are based on residency.
35:33
[SPEAKER_07]: So doesn't matter whether you're renting or own the place or anything else.
35:39
[SPEAKER_07]: So if you live in Syracuse and own properties in Watertown and Carthage, you don't get to vote in those places.
35:48
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
35:49
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
35:49
[SPEAKER_10]: So the former police in the house are writing that gets to vote whoever owns it and paying the property taxes.
35:57
[SPEAKER_10]: that they don't live there, so they know they own the property.
36:03
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, correct.
36:05
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, let's say registered a vote at that property, but you can only register in one place.
36:10
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
36:11
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
36:12
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
36:12
[SPEAKER_10]: Just saying keep an eye just out for more of these.
36:15
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
36:16
[SPEAKER_10]: Okay.
36:17
[SPEAKER_10]: Yeah.
36:18
[SPEAKER_10]: All right.
36:18
[SPEAKER_10]: What do you think about the speed bumps?
36:20
[SPEAKER_10]: I don't know.
36:20
[SPEAKER_10]: I'd wish you didn't put them in.
36:21
[SPEAKER_10]: And that was funny.

[SPEAKER_18]: Yes operated but not gas operated bikes to very similar are regulated in the state of Florida They have bunk lanes all over the state of Florida, and they have break-winged gear more down for people I just think that maybe we should just Be in horse and buggies for the honest as well too.
37:13
[SPEAKER_18]: I mean come on
37:15
[SPEAKER_18]: really crazy that we just can't echo nature to helping keep the poor people out of the last portion of people that can't afford cars or $30 over to get to work.
37:27
[SPEAKER_18]: People have been riding bikes before automobiles.
37:33
[SPEAKER_18]: And you have these e-bikes because there does need
37:45
[SPEAKER_18]: meetings or more outlook or whatever you want to call it on it, you know, more firms, whatever, but it's just, you just can't go out and say, no, it's bad and the fact that, and this net, people need to slow down a little bit, man.
38:01
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, I don't think they're necessarily bad and inherently, they're an inexpensive way for many people to get around or can't afford cars and all that, and insurance and all the other
38:15
[SPEAKER_07]: But on the other hand, when you're out there competing in traffic, no helmet on, no nothing.
38:22
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, you're creating a bit of a problem.
38:25
[SPEAKER_18]: Yeah, that's wrong.
38:26
[SPEAKER_18]: That's wrong.
38:27
[SPEAKER_18]: I'm not saying that they shouldn't be regulated.
38:30
[SPEAKER_18]: Look, I can't worry about our son out there.
38:33
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, the problem is this, if you regulate them, that creates expense, and that creates the insurance partailer gets in the middle of it, and everybody else, these people can't afford that or don't water afford it, and that's why they have those bikes because they don't have to pay any of the trappings.
38:52
[SPEAKER_18]: Hold on a minute.
38:52
[SPEAKER_18]: You're the one, and you say this a lot, how many of you voicemailers we're all there today, Jeff?
38:59
[SPEAKER_07]: A good number of them aren't.
39:01
[SPEAKER_18]: You're talking about that all the time.
39:03
[SPEAKER_18]: People don't even have insurance nowadays.
39:05
[SPEAKER_18]: Most of them don't have an insurance certificate because they can't afford to inspect it.
39:11
[SPEAKER_18]: You know what this is?
39:13
[SPEAKER_18]: We really need to take your stuff back.
39:14
[SPEAKER_18]: I keep saying that every day.
39:16
[SPEAKER_18]: And another thing, too, and get ready.
39:18
[SPEAKER_18]: This is going to be, this is taken.
39:19
[SPEAKER_18]: We're hearing this on the national news.
39:21
[SPEAKER_18]: And I'm hearing it.
39:22
[SPEAKER_18]: I don't pay attention to the mainstream, but I'm hearing it on the wire.
39:27
[SPEAKER_18]: Canada has been a comfort hour.
39:29
[SPEAKER_18]: What are we going to do about that?
39:32
[SPEAKER_18]: What he's talking about it.

39:37
[SPEAKER_18]: 20%.
39:37
[SPEAKER_18]: 20%.
39:38
[SPEAKER_18]: They're not because of the chance and because of what's going on.
39:41
[SPEAKER_18]: They're just going to be lower here.

[SPEAKER_18]: They're just going to be more.

[SPEAKER_18]: That way.
39:53
[SPEAKER_18]: You doubt it.
39:54
[SPEAKER_18]: You doubt it.
39:55
[SPEAKER_07]: People here are there.
39:56
[SPEAKER_07]: Plastic.
39:56
[SPEAKER_07]: They don't do anything.
39:58
[SPEAKER_07]: They'll bend over for anything.
39:59
[SPEAKER_07]: So yeah, they're not going to be warm.
40:03
[SPEAKER_18]: I'm sorry, but you're just now living, I just don't know, maybe we need to get going for the times we're in.
40:11
[SPEAKER_18]: People need to put out of me to go and have to...
40:13
[SPEAKER_07]: Okay, all right, calm down.
40:16
[SPEAKER_07]: All right, have a good day.
40:18
[SPEAKER_07]: Thank you.
40:21
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, we've got a text.
40:23
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, if you see these street takeovers in the big cities where they do donuts around traffic circles and light fires in the street,
40:34
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
40:35
[SPEAKER_07]: Somebody wrote in the speed bumps, were installed, were done without proper signage according to MUTCD, federal and state regulators, you know, this person goes on to say it's a shame someone had to die because of the city's negligence.
40:52
[SPEAKER_07]: I'm not directly, I don't think there was direct culpability, but as you recall,
40:57
[SPEAKER_07]: Councilman Olney was in at that time and he asked who put those in there and the third floor was very evasive on that so I think we know but still but after dinner on the air hey Jeff I just really like because I agree with most of the everything the things I had to say okay lifestyles you know men like growing up
41:24
[SPEAKER_17]: men in the, you know, 80s and 90s for me in the early 2000s.
41:29
[SPEAKER_17]: That's how men were.
41:31
[SPEAKER_17]: All right.
41:32
[SPEAKER_17]: That's how you how it is.
41:34
[SPEAKER_17]: You messed up.
41:36
[SPEAKER_17]: You had to deal with the industry guy.
41:38
[SPEAKER_17]: Okay.
41:39
[SPEAKER_17]: You know, we don't have that anymore.
41:42
[SPEAKER_17]: And you give them an inch.
41:45
[SPEAKER_17]: And the lifestyle took a thousand miles.
41:48
[SPEAKER_17]: Okay.
41:49
[SPEAKER_17]: We see what the city did.
41:51
[SPEAKER_17]: Okay.
41:52
[SPEAKER_17]: It was what they.
41:53
[SPEAKER_17]: brought into the city and then who mirror that the school did the school mirror that right um... i guess yeah yeah and then it goes in even further and then when you start looking at the lifestyles you find out who all these media personalities really are and yeah and you don't want to talk about it no
42:22
[SPEAKER_17]: Men like you that want to keep that hushush and I talk about it.
42:27
[SPEAKER_17]: That's the problem.
42:28
[SPEAKER_17]: We need more men like the English guy.
42:31
[SPEAKER_17]: Because those are the men that I remember being raised by.
42:34
[SPEAKER_17]: Do you know what I'm saying?
42:36
[SPEAKER_14]: Yes.
42:37
[SPEAKER_17]: Those are the guys that would tell you how it is.
42:40
[SPEAKER_17]: And they'd be so scared to death of them that you did the what was right.
42:44
[SPEAKER_07]: Right.
42:45
[SPEAKER_17]: So that's all I want to say.

[SPEAKER_07]: Um, okay, what else were you coming in?
46:20
[SPEAKER_07]: Somebody, Glenn sent me some video.
46:23
[SPEAKER_07]: I think that was old video, Glenn, wasn't it?
46:27
[SPEAKER_07]: Some time ago.
46:30
[SPEAKER_07]: Somebody also said the caller's intolerance is sickening.
46:35
[SPEAKER_07]: Another person said, why do you cut people off when they say something controversial?
46:40
[SPEAKER_07]: Because you can't just say whatever you want,
46:44
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, you don't care, we do.
46:48
[SPEAKER_07]: And...
46:51
[SPEAKER_07]: So, let me say, Council is at a loss on making decisions on the budget.
46:56
[SPEAKER_07]: They will settle for 9% and call it a day.
46:59
[SPEAKER_07]: Are they going to pass that tax cap over rights tonight?
47:02
[SPEAKER_07]: Or are they going to be gutless?
47:04
[SPEAKER_07]: Or show some spying, I mean, and defeat it?
47:09
[SPEAKER_07]: Now, Councilman Schoen says he's against it, so that's one no vote.
47:13
[SPEAKER_07]: We know the mayor, Councilman Kimbull, of Otonfavor, probably Garibrand, too.
47:21
[SPEAKER_07]: So they'll need to have that override.
47:29
[SPEAKER_07]: Oh, let's, there's something this shows could be shut down if Lechissa James is listening.
47:38
[SPEAKER_07]: Why would she shut it down?
47:41
[SPEAKER_07]: Somebody was telling me, you know, she's a funny one.
47:45
[SPEAKER_07]: Like a lot of us sometimes take good pictures of them.
47:48
[SPEAKER_07]: Sometimes not.
47:49
[SPEAKER_07]: I was talking to a mayor of a small village in this area of life-saver, Mary.
47:56
[SPEAKER_07]: Said he was hugged by two streams and she was quite fetching.
48:01
[SPEAKER_07]: What he said, I think.
48:03
[SPEAKER_07]: So, we have nothing.
48:07
[SPEAKER_07]: We don't agree with Tish calling guys, I guess, to male, to pale and to stale.
48:11
[SPEAKER_07]: We think that's racist, but it's okay because she thinks we're racist too.
48:16
[SPEAKER_07]: So, and I see they're doing a lot of work on the key bank building.
48:20
[SPEAKER_07]: Are they putting in windows or taking them out?
48:22
[SPEAKER_07]: I can't figure, but that's going to be her new digs up there for when she's in town.
48:29
[SPEAKER_07]: Only the best for Tish.
48:32
[SPEAKER_07]: Good afternoon, you're on the air.
48:34
[SPEAKER_05]: The senior citizens can't afford 11% tax increase by the city, and if the city hadn't wasted $8 million on an 80-year-old building, the taxes wouldn't have to be raised.
48:48
[SPEAKER_05]: And also on the problem with traffic in the city, you've got cars going down the millstreet way too fast.
48:54
[SPEAKER_05]: One of these days, some across the street down here in millstreet is going to get killed.
48:59
[SPEAKER_05]: Thank you.
49:00
[SPEAKER_07]: Have a good day.
49:02
[SPEAKER_07]: And when this issue of driving too fast is, you know, it goes back as long as cars have been around.
49:08
[SPEAKER_07]: But on the other hand, it does seem like people, maybe I notice it more or whatever, whether it's in the park or a mill street or a pearl street or whatever, slow the blank down, okay?
49:22
[SPEAKER_07]: Um, yeah, we don't need that, too easy to have an accident, and you really don't get there
49:33
[SPEAKER_07]: When it's all said and done, you really don't get there any quicker.
49:37
[SPEAKER_07]: So slow down.
49:39
[SPEAKER_07]: I think some more of those things like in front of the high school, which I had recommended years ago, where it tells you to speed and then says slow down if you're going too fast, I think those are helpful.
49:50
[SPEAKER_07]: And given the city can't, you know, we may want to put those in more locations.
49:57
[SPEAKER_07]: It might help, it's not going to eliminate the problem, but it helps.
50:05
[SPEAKER_07]: I don't know.
50:06
[SPEAKER_07]: It doesn't seem to be a lot of interest in correcting these type of problems.
50:13
[SPEAKER_07]: You know, like, did anyone go up and look at those speed bumps after that accident or any other accident?
50:23
[SPEAKER_07]: Say, well, you know, maybe we should make some changes here or something.
50:26
[SPEAKER_07]: No.
50:28
[SPEAKER_07]: The top brass is all out of town.
50:31
[SPEAKER_07]: When something happens, they're like,
50:35
[SPEAKER_07]: No big deal.
50:36
[SPEAKER_07]: We're having a picnic today.
50:38
[SPEAKER_07]: So yeah, they are disconnected from a lot of these events.
50:42
[SPEAKER_07]: I've noticed there are many occasions.
50:44
[SPEAKER_07]: Well, I heard about that.
50:46
[SPEAKER_07]: I didn't really know much about it.
50:48
[SPEAKER_07]: We'll have to look into that.
50:50
[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah.
50:52
[SPEAKER_07]: Shouldn't have to look into anything.
50:55
[SPEAKER_07]: 755, 1240, the phone number if you'd like to give us a call.

[SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it's like a This is a big holiday.
56:57
[SPEAKER_07]: I mean, I imagine they made a big Johnny probably made a big deal of it over on his station because all of his listeners I bet you if you took a poll of Johnny's listeners more people would know it for 20 years than would know what 9-11 is.
57:09
[SPEAKER_07]: It's that bad But on the other hand Yeah, and then when they get special or 20 sales out of the weed stores And all of that stuff
57:24
[SPEAKER_07]: We got weed coming out of our ears in this town.
57:28
[SPEAKER_07]: We're growing it in doors.
57:29
[SPEAKER_07]: It's in door growing places here in the city.

[SPEAKER_07]: This is the 420 town.
57:38
[SPEAKER_07]: I don't know if it's a good thing or not.
57:39
[SPEAKER_07]: Remember when that lady and Edita used to go around all the stations and talk about drug abuse?
57:45
[SPEAKER_07]: Oh, bad weed wasn't.
57:47
[SPEAKER_07]: Now she doesn't because the state says she can't.
57:49
[SPEAKER_07]: I mean, the state is now a promoter of weed.
57:54
[SPEAKER_07]: So nobody's speaking against it.
57:56
[SPEAKER_07]: And we used to do a story.
57:57
[SPEAKER_07]: I can remember the news business back in the early 80s point you do those stories.
58:01
[SPEAKER_07]: Pops of me holds up stocks of weed.
58:04
[SPEAKER_07]: And this has a street value of blah, blah, blah, blah.
58:07
[SPEAKER_07]: And it was a big deal.
58:08
[SPEAKER_07]: Now nobody cares.

58:17
[SPEAKER_17]: Well, I'm going to say bring it on.

[SPEAKER_07]: I don't know where he's talking about.
58:27
[SPEAKER_07]: Nobody's bringing legal action against anything.
