to talk about that and several other things i want to get to and I
2:17
want to welcome to the show. Now, how did you a mayor candidate
2:20
for governor? Steve Williams, mister Mery, good morning, Welcome to the
2:23
show. Thanks for having me on, Dave, really appreciate you giving me
2:27
some time to talk. Absolutely, first I asked you got to ask the
2:30
obligatory how was your trick or training? Last night? My wife and take
2:38
our chairs out to the front, and there wasn't nearly as many people last
2:44
night as there has been in the last few years. But it's a blast.
2:49
And particularly what's fun is when the families actually dress up. The parents,
2:53
oh yeah, dress up and one one dad that came as the Great
3:00
and it was, it was, it was precious the entire evening. It's
3:05
so fun. It is it is, And of course it is like I
3:07
said, in my neighborhood and we'll talk about that a little bit later on.
3:09
Mayor if I get tied. The numbers were down, and well,
3:12
you know, they said it was too cold and whatever. I mean,
3:15
I just don't get that. I mean, it's Halloween, It's supposed to
3:16
be cold. But that's exactly what I think the reason was was that it's
3:23
always been recent. In recent years, it's been a bit of a controversy
3:28
in Huntington and Cabell County. What day is right to be yea and everybody's
3:34
pointing it on the thirty first. Well we had it on the weekend,
3:38
and we had it on a Friday night in past years, in the most
3:40
recent years, and that gone. People were out. Uh, last night
3:49
was fun. It was indeed, may I want to give you a chance
3:52
before we get into your campaign. I'll give you a chance to talk about
3:53
your city for a moment, and I will tell you I know that there
3:57
is no probably it's up for debate. I there's probably no mayor in the
4:01
state that loves your city more than Steve Williams does Hontington. Talk about your
4:04
love for that city. It starts all the way back when I moved to
4:11
Huntington from Little Athens, West Virginia, when I was sixteen years old.
4:15
My dad was a coach down at Concord and when he quit coaching went on
4:19
to VPI to work on as doctorate. He was offered a job at Marshall
4:25
and we moved to Huntington when I was sixteen, and this town just reached
4:30
out and just embraced my family, and certainly it helped during the years that
4:36
I was playing ball football at Marshall. And there has just been a romance
4:43
that's developed within the city and I'm so proud of how folks are. There's
4:48
a high level of compassion, there is unbelievable talent, an interest to be
4:55
able to make the city much better. It was a time that Huntington was
5:01
always known for fighting among themselves on whatever issues were coming out. Arch Moore
5:06
used to say, you go to Huntington and you hand out twenty dollars bills
5:11
on the street corner, and they'll argue about which street corner used to be.
5:16
And when I became mayor, I was a little bit worried that will
5:21
will people be able to come together to be able to pursue the vision that
5:29
I had for a transformation of life within the city. And folks embraced it,
5:34
and I have to say, I am proud as can be of our
5:41
community. We have well documented all sorts of problems, but there's a point
5:46
where you just have to just name it and own it and quit being a
5:53
victim about it, just work on getting it fixed. And that's the way
5:56
folks, really, I think Huntington, I think that's the way folks in
6:00
West Virginia are and uh, it could be our our Appalachian culture, but
6:10
the reality is, we have big hearts. We believe in holding folks accountable,
6:16
but we will give a shirt right off our back. And that's why
6:21
I'm so so proud of Huntington. Frankly, I can't run for mayor again,
6:27
so I'm thinking this is an opportunity for me to take statewide what we've
6:33
been working on and uh and allow communities to be able to frame their own
6:39
future. Talking again with Huntington mayor and candidate for governor Steve Williams here on
6:44
the Dave Allence Show. Okay, Mary, I'm going to go ahead jump
6:46
right into the governor's race here for a moment. I'm going to go ahead
6:47
and state the obvious here. West Virginia is a red state, a hard
6:53
a hard red state, and it's getting it's getting reader. It seems by
6:58
by the year that's gonna be difficult to overcome. I'm sure you thought about
7:01
that. Oh well, I know it's an uphill climb, that it's a
7:05
clime worth taking because I believe if there's going to be a segment of the
7:14
population that see that I have a D after my name and they're just not
7:16
going to look any further. But there's a significant number of independence and I
7:27
do think that there are a significant number of Republicans who will give me a
7:32
look see so to speak, and a given an opportunity and they listen to
7:39
what I'm saying, then we have a good conversation going, and I think
7:45
I stand better than odds chance. But the reality is is that every race
7:56
that I have run in, and this will be my eleventh race, every
8:01
campaign that I've run in, I've run as a D. But I have
8:05
never ever said to anybody, vote for me because I'm a Democrat, vote
8:11
for me because of my ideas. Vote for me as to how I'm able
8:13
to communicate with you and identify ways that we can work together to be able
8:18
to move move our community forward. And I'm not going to change I'm not
8:24
going to change tactics now. It's been successful for me. I'm more of
8:31
a mainstream candidate, and I think the message that I have to deliver,
8:39
if people will listen, they'll say, well, this guy's worth in taking
8:46
a look at Attorney General Patrick Morrisy, Secretary of State, Mac Warner,
8:50
Delegatemore, Capitol out of dealer, Chris Miller. People, I'm sure that
8:52
you all know very well what makes Steve Williams the better candidate. I've done
8:58
what my ass my responsibility. The last twelve years as mayor. I've had
9:05
to deal with paving. I've had to deal with infrastructure. I've had to
9:09
deal with law enforcement. I've had to deal with the directly actually fighting the
9:15
opioid epidemic. I've had to negotiate contracts with my employees and look at I've
9:22
had to fix pensions. I've had financial problems on the verge of bankruptcy and
9:28
been able to eliminate taxes and increase our revenue. As one person said to
9:37
me, Steve, you don't have you will not have to have on the
9:41
job, on the job training. You can step in day one and be
9:46
sitting in an environment that you've been operating in in twelve years. That's the
9:52
difference. Man. Frankly, all four of those that you've spoken, who
10:00
you've mentioned, I've worked with all of them. They're fine, they're fine
10:03
gentlemen. And the only difference is is that I've done this day in and
10:11
day out for nearly twelve years. They've done some things, but they have
10:15
never done all of the breadth of everything that I've had to be involved with.
10:20
And I think given that posture, I know how to start from the
10:28
very first day. What are some of the ideas, if elected mayor,
10:33
that you would like to put into place as governor? What are some of
10:35
the things that you are willing to step up and fight for and say,
10:39
hey, this is an idea that I could really get. Mind, it
10:41
just gives a couple of those. Everything, everything, everything that we must
10:48
be doing has to be geared towards wealth accumulation, developing prosperity within the state,
10:58
creating jobs. My background all the way back to the early eighties,
11:05
I was working in developing economic development programs. Now, the thing is,
11:11
there's some things that are working extremely well in West Virginia right now. The
11:16
thing is we got to kick it up several launches. It's not enough to
11:22
say, well, we're not in the We're not forty eighth, forty ninth,
11:28
or fiftieth anymore, we're in the top thirties. No, we need
11:31
to be a top ten percent state. And if we're going to be doing
11:35
that, we have to be more aggressive than any state around. What I
11:39
am known for saying is let's set vendors that the rest of the nation will
11:43
be seeking to follow. So everything is going to be driven towards job development.
11:50
Well, we have problems within higher education. We have problems within our
11:54
public education system. The reality is is that recent years in higher education,
12:01
we've had a situation where it has been the privatization of our public colleges because
12:07
the way they have been funding their operations has been increasing tuitions, and we've
12:15
seen the level of participation in the enrollments and dropping in our colleges and universities.
12:22
We have to address that. But also I think that there are some
12:28
things that we have to leave for local governments, city and county governments to
12:35
be able to have a robust conversation as to what works in their area.
12:39
Everything doesn't have to be controlled by the legislature. When I was in the
12:45
legislature, there was a tendency to try to say, well, we'll do
12:48
things. And then now that the Republicans have come in and have taken over
12:52
the first time in eighty years, well they fell had fallen into the same
12:56
trap where now they're making all of the decisions. Frankly, we have brilliant
13:01
people in our communities. We have talent hiding and plain sight, and we
13:07
need to encourage communities to be able to utilize those resources that we have.
13:15
And lastly, we have more resources than we have ever had in the history
13:20
of the state to be able to build infrastructure throughout the state. It is
13:26
an absolute crime that we have areas of the state that don't even have running
13:30
water. I mean, my goodness, that's those are through world countries and
13:35
we here in the wealthiest nation in the world and we have areas that don't
13:41
have running water. We have to fix things like that. We have to
13:45
have broadband all across the state, and we have to have roads that are
13:50
actually opening up areas of the state. We've done that quite well in some
13:54
areas that there are areas down in southwestern Virginia that don't have ready access in
14:03
and out. So all of these things point to one thing, creating jobs.
14:09
We create jobs. A job that's created starts to solve an awful lot
14:15
of problems that we have, and everything, everything that we do has got
14:18
to be in that direction. And lastly, and just as importantly, we
14:24
need to get out of the business of running people's lives. There's some things
14:28
that is not the bitten, not absolutely not business of the legislature to come
14:37
in and make decisions as to who I'm going to love, how I'm going
14:41
to handle my health care, and how I'm going to be able to make
14:46
decisions for my family. We are known in this state mountaineers are always free.
14:52
Well, then we need to let let folks be able to make their
14:54
own decisions for their own lives. Mayor, I got one final thing for
14:58
you before I you go. All politics now seems to be national. If
15:03
you're a Republican, you're tied to Donald Trump. If you're a Democrat,
15:07
you find yourself answering. I know. I have the state Democratic Party chair,
15:09
Mike Pushkin on the show, and it's constantly he's asked having to ask
15:13
answer questions about about Joe Biden or AOC or whatever. What is your plan
15:20
to if you are going to do this when you're out on the trail,
15:24
you're at a forum or whatever, to say, hey, I'm my own
15:28
guy. I'm not part of that, or are you part of that?
15:31
The National Democratic Party has failed with Virginia. I mean that's why. I
15:35
mean, frankly, I believe in the market, and I think markets are
15:39
quite efficient in that regard. That's why we see that West Virginia has become
15:46
as red as it has because people look and they are wondering, well,
15:50
what are Democrats doing doing for us? Reality is, we do have resources
15:56
now to be able to fix things. But the fact of the matter is
16:02
there are some there's some folks in the Democratic Party that would never ever want
16:07
to have lunch with me and uh and for that matter, if they were,
16:12
they would expect me to pay for it. And and that's just not
16:17
who I am. I am a mainstream Democrat. I'd like to say that
16:22
I am a West Virginia Democrat, more of a Kennedy Democrat and John Kennedy
16:27
Democrat, not Ted Kennedy Democrat. Reality is, I think where we find
16:34
ourselves is that after a while, people will start to realize. You know
16:42
this fellaw stands on his own. I've had some people say, well,
16:48
as we said, am I a Kennedy Democrat? I'm a Mansion Democrats?
16:52
And actually I'm a Steve Williams Democrat. What you see is what you get,
16:57
good, good place to leave it. Mayor and candidate for Governor,
17:00
Steve Williams. I appreciate you taking time at your schedule to be here.
17:04

interview today. I want to get in that little bit later on. Right
20:37
now, I want to talk to our good friend, Ashley, offered Glance
20:38
from the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce. Good morning, miss offered Glance.
20:44
How are you, good morning, my friend Dave. How you doing?
20:45
I am doing fine. You get an event going on there tomorrow at Area
20:49
thirty four. You're going to be teaming up with the Small Business Administration for
20:52
an event talk about them. Yeah, absolutely, So tomorrow we're hosting an
20:57
event called show Me the Money, and it's in partnership with the West Virginia
21:02
Small Business Development Center. And then we're also going to have some Q and
21:04
A by Carol Jackson, who is a loan officer of the first Micro Loan
21:08
of West Virginia. And so tomorrow what we're going to be doing is hosting
21:12
a quick seminar on how it's it's geared at small business owners anybody that already
21:18
owns a business or wants to start a small business, and we're going to
21:22
be talking about building a business plan. We're also going to be talking about
21:26
pre startup, pre planning, business financing, and literally and anything that you
21:32
any questions that you really have about starting a business here in West Virginia and
21:36
specifically in Putnam County. We're going to be on hand and able to answer
21:38
those questions and hope that we can help some small businesses. And according to
21:42
what I saw on social media, my favorite phrase in English language, breakfast
21:47
is provided. That is correct, Breakfast is provided. So we'll we'll have
21:52
a light breakfast there and then we'll have the seminar and then again Carol Jackson
21:57
from the first micro Loan will be there for Q and A. And you
22:00
know, really we just want to make sure that people have all the information
22:03
they need when they're looking. You know, they may have an idea for
22:07
a new business, but don't know what's next, so you know, the
22:10
first thing that we can do is help them with a business plan or look
22:14
for access to funding or just really any questions that they may have. And
22:18
if if we don't answer the questions tomorrow, then we can answer them later.
22:22
We might need to make some other connections to some other organizations that help
22:26
small businesses in addition to us and the SBDC. Let's talk about the role.
22:30
You're somebody that's very involved in not only the Putnam Chambers executive director,
22:33
but also involved with the business on a state wide level. How important are
22:37
small businesses in your opinion, to not only Putnham County, but the state
22:41
of West Virginia and the entire country for that matter. Oh, absolutely small
22:44
businesses. They make up a majority of the businesses in Punham County. And
22:48
you know, to have, you know, a proper ecosystem in in your
22:52
community, you need to have both small businesses and large businesses. And that's
22:56
what makes the community great to live in. And so in Putnham County we're
23:00
fortunate to have, you know, our small businesses that make up the majority,
23:03
and then are great support by our larger more national and national and global
23:07
businesses as well. And for those who don't know, Area thirty four is
23:11
just off the Tays Valley exit if you're coming from Charleston, it's just you
23:15
take a rite next to the x SIM of the RBS directly across the Liberty
23:18
Square. That's the home to not only the Chamber, but also the Putnam
23:22
County Convention Visitors Bureau, the best coffee shop in the area in my opinion.
23:26
Connie and the folks with Putnam Provisions Solid Waste authorities in areas of development
23:30
authority. So it's kind of a one stop shop for Putnam County and I
23:33
will give you an opportunity to sell that a little bit, a bit of
23:37
a free commercial because you got meeting spaces and work pods available. To talk
23:41
about that absolutely, so we we had Area thirty four really pride ourselves on
23:45
being a hub for our community no matter what your needs are. So whether
23:48
it's a place to just come and meet a friend for coffee or to have
23:52
a business business meeting. We have a coffee shop that's open to the public.
23:56
Putnam provisions from every day and so any that can come on in and
24:00
grab a cup of coffee a locally roasted coffee as well. And then we
24:04
have conference rooms, we have meeting spaces, and we also run a coworking
24:08
space. So if you are looking for flexible or temporary space for your business,
24:14
you can get started at Area thirty four and have access to all the
24:18
amenities of the building. And then we also have Area thirty four Mobile,
24:22
so if you need to interface with your clients on the go, give us
24:26
a call to talk about Area thirty four Mobile. It is the area's only
24:29
or the state's only mobile coworking space. And also I understand that we yet
24:36
another new business coming into Putnam County. Fact, it's already there. It's
24:38
called Walked. It's a mid Valley square. Had lunch there a couple of
24:41
weeks ago, very delicious lunch. It's across from the reservoir there in Hurricane.
24:48
As I said, it's been open for at least a couple of weeks.
24:49
There's going to be a riven cutting hell there tomorrow at eleven o'clock.
24:52
Love seeing those new businesses come into the area. Ashley, Oh, absolutely,
24:56
we really enjoy. That's one of the most favorite parts of the job,
25:00
that's cutting those cutting those ribbons with the big scissors. And so tomorrow
25:04
we're going to be celebrating Walked. And we've been very very fortunate here in
25:11
Pundam County too. You know, there has been very few weeks that have
25:17
gone by that we haven't celebrated a new business in Pundam County. And so
25:21
I hope that everyone will join us in celebrating walk to tomorrow. And we've
25:23
got a few more schedules for the rest of the year, and you know,
25:26
it's really important as we get into the holiday season and you're thinking about
25:30
gifts buying, you know, to make sure to show some love to some
25:34
of our small and locally owned businesses when you're thinking about gifts through your loved
25:40
ones this holiday season. And I also understand that downtown Hurricane is going to
25:44
be getting a Italian slash steakhouse, so we're looking forward to I'm always looking
25:49
forward to that. I'm always looking forward to that. Before we let you
25:52
go, New Core, everybody's talking about New Core coming to Mason County and
25:56
and what it's already meant. And I know in Putnam County we've already we've
26:02
already seen several of their their feet print for lack of a better term,
26:07
that they've had in Putnam County talk about that. Yeah, the state of
26:10
West Virginia is so fortunate to have to have Newcore join us here in our
26:15
state. And I think that all that the state is going to benefit from
26:18
them, and as well as you know, the county surrounding Mason County,
26:23
and so you know, we're so fortunate. They're such a wonderful company and
26:27
they go above and beyond to support their community, and so you know,
26:30
in Putnam County, we are seeing a lot of new residents due to being
26:37
relocating from other mills, and so we're always happy to meet our new families
26:41
that join us in Putnam County and figure out how we can make Putnam County
26:45
still like their new home. All right, let's before let you go,
26:48
let's get back to the event tomorrow. And I errored earlier when I said
26:52
Small Business Administration, I meant to say the SBDC, But they kind of
26:55
work hand in hand. So talk about the event tomorrow at Area thirty four.
26:59
Yeah, So tomorrow we've got to show me the money, and it
27:00
is an information session for small business owners. We are going to be learning
27:04
about business plans, we're going to be learning about small business financing, and
27:11
we're also going to be able to answer any questions that you have about opening
27:15
a new small business in in West Virginia or in Putnam County specifically. It's
27:18
from eight It starts at eight thirty am. Breakfast is provided, and we're
27:22
also going to have a Q and A that will be led by Carol Jackson
27:26
from the first Micro Loan of West Virginia. So I hope people will join
27:30
us and and we'll be able to answer some questions and get some new business
27:33
appea and information I presume is available on the Putnam County Chamber of Commerce websites
27:37
and social media. All right, Ashleys, all right, Ashley, we
27:41
will talk soon and I'll see you there for that definitely for that ribbon cutting
27:45
tomorrow, So look for you tomorrow. All right. Thanks for having me
27:48
tell my friends. I didn't get to tell my friend Steve, but may
27:52
Or Williams actually has a long history and it is a good friend of Putnam
27:56
County. So I was honored to be on the show right behind him today.
28:00

hardware number of a Winfield. He got some text to get to several news
28:30
items I want to get to as well. I do want to throw this
28:33
in there. On Monday show. I had the mayor of Montgomery, mister
28:37
Greg Ingram, on the show on Mayor Monday, and he announced what he
28:42
actually had already announced it, but he added I guess that in addition to
28:45
mayor of Montgomery, he was also going to be running for the West Virginia
28:49
House of Delegates, and so I kind of thought this was right, but
28:55
I didn't know for sure. I wanted to verify this with mister Ingram and
29:00
and the voter registration folks. Somebody had texted the show yesterday and ask what
29:03
his party was. Greg Ingram is indeed a Republican, and so he's going
29:08
to be running for Western Indian House of Delegates. I think the district was
29:12
fifty two. I think that's what it is, and he's based on Montgomery.
29:15
But again, he was on the show on Monday, on the Mayor
29:18
of Monday segment talking about the great things going on in Montgomery, and then
29:21
somebody he announced a couple of weeks ago that he'd signed his papers pre candidacy
29:26
papers if you will to run for the House of Delegates. And somebody texted
29:29
the show yesterday I wanted to know about his political party. Greg Ingram is
29:33
indeed a Republican. We're going to take a break. We're back after this

little insider information here. One of our own here in the building is celebrating
34:37
a monumental birthday today, and that is our Morning Guy on our sister station
34:43
KWS ninety six one. Superstar Country Rob Reel is celebrating the big five O
34:50
today. Welcome to your fifties, Rob, and I'm going to sit down
34:53
with him with it and I'm going to explain to him everything that he has
34:55
to look at now that he's in his fifties. He's a great guy,
35:00
one of my good friends, Rob Real. Some want to say happy birthday
35:02
to Rob who's celebrated number five O Today's or morning Guy on her sister station
35:07
ninety six to one KWS. All right, I me knock out, and
35:10
I got a bunch of texts to get to. Going back to Steve Williams,
35:14
text says, wait, so he's a Democrat and his dad was at
35:16
Virginia Tech. Not looking good for Williams, says a text. A little
35:21
little tongue in cheek there. Text says Mayor Steve Williams is undoubtedly the best
35:29
candidate for governor. It's just a shame that West Virginia voters had blinders on
35:32
and can only see party affiliation and will waste Mayor Williams potential for barely mediocre
35:38
candidates. According to a Texter, you know, and if you heard the
35:43
show on Monday, I guess it was when I gave my my advice,
35:46
and I didn't get into whether you know Mayor Williams actually heard my advice or
35:50
not on how he could No, I'm not saying when Okay, I'm saying
35:54
I kind of gave some advice on Monday show on ways forward, if you
36:00
will, for Steve Williams in ways he could do a little better in his
36:06
race for governor. Of course, one of those that I mentioned earlier,
36:09
Warner Capitol, Morrissey or Miller is going to emerge, and of course you
36:15
have another cannibrashity used. One of those is going to emerge to take on
36:19
Steve Williams for the governorship next year. And I kind of give some advice
36:22
on Monday Show in the ways I think he could move forward. And if
36:25
you heard, if you go back, and if you go back and listen
36:29
to the show once it's posted online. He kind of answered that because I
36:32
had to ask the question, and that is all politics is national. As
36:38
you've heard me say time and time again, I changed the county every time.
36:42
For the example, if you're running for Wetzel County Assessor, somebody's going
36:45
to ask you, how do you feel about Joe Biden and how do you
36:49
feel about Donald Trump? Because that's just kind of where it's sad, but
36:52
that's just kind of where we are. And he said Steve Williams earlier in
36:59
the show, he said some things that I think we're very good coming out
37:04
of him, and that is saying no basically as he said to the National
37:08
Democratic Party, he said, I am my own guy, and if he
37:14
holds to that, I think it will bode well for him in the race.
37:16
Now, is it going to be enough to propel him to the governorship
37:21
when he does have that D after his name. And that's another thing too
37:23
about Steve Williams that I kind of like and talking to him on the interview
37:28
this morning, and that was he said, I am what I am.
37:30
He said, I'm a West Virginia Democrat. And the problem is is that
37:35
the classic West Virginia Democrat and the National Democrat or what is the National Democrat
37:40
now, or at least the image thereof, aren't the same anymore. And
37:46
I give I mean, so far one interview, he's only done one interview
37:51
with me, and I'm sure he'll do he's already done. We'll do other
37:53
interviews with other people, but it's going to be, as the old timers
37:59
would say, a tough row to hoe in West Virginia. But if he
38:01
keeps on like he did on the interview this morning, I think he did
38:05
a good job. And I think that's the thing that he probably needs to
38:07
continue to say, Dave, allany show is brought to you and partly about
38:10
husbands. Pizza This month that your favorite Hustand's get a large eighteen inch pepperoni
38:14

com for the tales. More news out of Morgantown this morning. Mike Nolton
38:22
with the story post at wv Metronews dot com. Wvu's vice President for Strategic
38:27
Initiatives, Rob Alsop, is leaving now. He'd been at that job for
38:30
six years. He will work the job as vice president until November eighteenth,
38:37
and then he'll transition to a special advisor to WVU President Gordon Gee through the
38:42
end of January. My guess is that's probably a contract, a contractual thing.
38:45
He Alsop has been one of the major players in all this shuffling going
38:52
on up there. The Board of Governors back in September gave the final approval
38:57
to eliminate twenty eight majors and to cut one undred and forty three faculty positions
39:01
at West Virginia University. Now, in his time at WVU, he did
39:07
a variety of things. He served as interim athletic director immediately aughter Shane Lyons
39:15
left, and outside of WVU, he was also a big part of the
39:19
remember this, He was a big part of the Gubernatoil administrations, then Governor
39:23
Joe Manchin and then Governor Earl Ray Tomlin, and he actually served as chief
39:28
of staff for Senator cart Goodwin, who took that job following the death of
39:32
Senator Robert Byrd. So there's no word yet on a replacement moving forward for
39:38
rob Alsolf. I don't know exactly how that's I don't know exactly how that's
39:43
going to look, to be honest with you, Texas, So your former
39:46
boss is getting glad hands from crazy freak trader insurrectionists and Christian denominationist Mike Flynn.
39:55
What kind of a thing to be proud of? What a silly boy
40:00
kids talking about? Secretary of State Make Warner and Canada for governor. It
40:04
feels like he's playing out of his league and getting in over his head with
40:07
America hating criminals. According to a texture, Well, you know, I
40:14
I've I've put it out there several times. I did work for the Western
40:16
Uion Secretary of State's office, and I worked from for Mac Warners specifically for
40:21
four years, and I'd considered him act to be a very close personal friend.
40:25
He was my boss and he's not. Now he's not my friend,
40:30
but he's but he's not my boss anymore, is what I'm trying to say,
40:32
and you know, you don't always agree with your boss. If you're
40:37
listened to me right now, uh, and you're at work or whatever you
40:39
may, you may say my boss doesn't know what he's talking about. I'm
40:43
not saying that about Mac Warner. I'm just saying that you don't always agree
40:46
with your boss to what your friends do. So we'll just we'll kind of
40:50
leave it at that. I mean, there's nothing nothing more I can I
40:52
can say, but he's doing what he thinks he needs to do in order
40:57
to move forward in the race for governor. That's what he feels he needs
40:59
to do, so, you know, more power to it. Tex says,
41:02
is there any info out there about Sergio's. Sergio's is the new restaurant
41:07
that's going to be coming a downtown Hurricane, the formerly former Conley's Irish publication.
41:12
I know. The only thing I know about it is that obviously it's
41:16
owned by someone named Sergio, and this is a gentleman that has several other
41:20
businesses in the area, including the Guadalajara I think in Nitra of eating there,
41:23
it's pretty good. I'm looking forward to it. I'm always looking forward
41:28
to food, though, so that's just me. No, I don't have
41:30
any other information other than I think they were going to try to be open
41:34
by some time over the next couple of weeks, I think. But I
41:36
haven't been in downtown Hurricane in a few days. I live kind of on
41:39
the other end of the valley, so I haven't been down there, so
41:42
I haven't checked out. But I'll be there all right, And I will
41:45
definitely when you had me at steak and pasta, so I will definitely be
41:49
there. We are getting a new member of the House of Delegates. The
41:52
governor yesterday naming Erica Moore to take over the seat that was held by Riley
41:58
Keaton in District fifteen. That's and area based kind of out of r Own
42:00
County. Keaton has taking a job with the Justice Administration. Now Moore,
42:05
Erica Moore works actually for the city of Spencer and so she has been named
42:09
to that position by the governor. She will take over for Riley Keaton,
42:13
who, as I said, is taken a job within the Justice Administration.
42:16
So congratulations to Erica Moore. She will fill out the term and then at
42:22

According to a texture Well, one of my favorite eating places in Charleston
46:15
is closing its doors. Story post at WCCHS network dot com this morning.

The Fresh Seafood Company is closing up shop Capital Market now it's been there for
46:24
twenty six years. They planned to close by the fifteenth of this month.
46:29
The location, however, in Jefferson, is staying open. And I'll say
46:34
this to me, and yes, I know it's not Milly Snyder approved,
46:37
but there was nothing like the giant fish sandwich from there. I mean,
46:42

46:46
need. I hate to see him go, but I'm glad to know that
46:50
they are staying open at least in Jefferson. That place by the way,
46:52
sixty two thirty Mccorkyil Avenue. So there you go. And speaking of the
46:58
Capital Market at this areer, I'm looking forward to this. I've been asked,
47:01
along with several others, to serve as a judge for Saturday's mac and
47:07
Cheese cookoff to benefit the Childhood Language Centera. It starts at eleven o'clock Saturday
47:15
morning at Capital Market. And I was looking at the list of the entrance
47:20
and myself and the other judges have our work cut out for US. I
47:25
have a complete list posted at Dave Island Radio and Facebook and the Dave Island
47:30

47:55
what's not the love there? Restaurant, Brusi, Shuckers, be Stro just
48:00
a name a few, and a complete list of all of the sponsors are
48:04
available on my social media. So it should be fun. And somehow Joe
48:08
Stevens with the folks in Nitro is trying to get me involved somehow. Saturday
48:16
afternoon they have an event in Nitro and it's their Wagging Tails and Nitro Ales
48:23
event. It's a beer fest and a chili cookoff and that runs from eleven
48:30
until four on Saturday at the Living Memorial Park in Nitro. Proceeds there will
48:36
benefit Hospice Care and various other local animal charities. So if I can make
48:40
both and they've got me at the mac and Cheese deal at the Capital Market
48:45
starting an eleven Saturday morning and if I can somehow then get to Nitro for
48:51
Wagging Whales and Nitro Ales this beer fest and chili cookoff my Saturday night which
48:58
I had intended on back and watching the Marshall Appellitian State game. If anybody
49:05
would like to get me a sponsorship to the show from Pepto Bismol, that
49:07
might be appreciated. After mac and cheese during the day and chili in the
49:12
late afternoon and speaking to Joe Stevens, our good friend from the Nitro CVB.
49:16
He will be on the show tomorrow to talk about that particular event.
49:21
Also looking to head to tomorrows show. Ryan Weld, state Senator, who
49:23
is a candidate for Attorney General, is going to be on the show tomorrow.
49:28
If you go back, and we always encourage if you miss any part
49:30
of the show, you can go back and listen to them on your schedule
49:32
on demand wchsnetwork dot com or sign up for the podcast version wherever you get
49:37
your favorite podcasts, and that way it's just it's delivered to you. And
49:40
we also repost the shows on social media on Facebook, and on AXI artists
49:45
only known as Twitter as well. But if you go back and you listen
49:49
to Monday show, I had attorney general candidate also State Senator Mike Stewart on
49:52
the show, and mister Stewart was you know a little I'm dismissive if you
50:00
will, toward Ryan Weld. He said, basically, it is a three
50:05
person race for attorney general. I'm sorry, he said, a two person
50:08
race for attorney general between himself, speaking of Mike Stewart and current State Auditor
50:15
J. B. McCuskey. He called it a two person race. Well,
50:16
there is another person in it, and as someone who is closely affiliated
50:22
with the Ryan Weld campaign texted and told me, he said, well,
50:25
if you want to look at it like this, the race for attorney general
50:29
right now is a two person race, but it's between McCuskey and Ryan Weld
50:34
if you base it just on the money that's been raised. So I'm not
50:37
getting now all that. I'm just saying. I had Stewart on the show
50:40
and the folks with Ryan Well to talk to them. They asked to come
50:43
on the show on Thursday. So I'm looking forward to having Ryan Weld State
50:47
Senator and candidate for Attorney General on the show tomorrow, and I would presume
50:53
that probably one day next week I'll have JB. McCuskey on the show.
50:57
Is well, welcome to campaign twenty twenty four. As it is in twenty
51:00
twenty three, it's still there. I hope your tricker treating went well last
51:07
night. We had maybe about one hundred or so at our at our place
51:09
last night, not a lot considering the number of kids that live nearby.
51:15
I guess, as Mayor Williams and I were talking about earlier, I guess
51:17
it was just too cold. And I was talking like came in the buildings
51:21
when he was talking to Steve Animal, our morning guy on the on the
51:24
Mountain, our classic rock station, And of course Steve's a Michigan guy,
51:29
so his definition of cold might be a little bit different. But remember when
51:31
trick or treating a couple of years ago was postponed because of rain I mean,
51:37
you know you you have got to be kidding me, And what are
51:40
what message are we sending to kids when we tell them you can't go out
51:45
because it's cold and because it's windy, because it's rainy. It's Halloween there's
51:52
a reason why Halloween is held in October and not in July. It's supposed
51:57
to be cold, nasty frost, that's what it's supposed to be. And
52:00
it was not windy irany last night. It was just a little bit cold.
52:05
But anyway, old man, old man ran over all. Right,
52:08
Uh, gotta go again. I will not be on the show on Friday.
52:13
I will be here tomorrow though. Again. Attorney General candidate and Saint
52:15
Senator Ryan Welds on the show tomorrow, plus Joe Stevens talking about this big
52:19
