  Speaker 1: With you till six tonight's 406 news radio 570 wkbn
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: on this monday june 22nd let me go back to
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: our patient callers all right so pick it up from
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: the top go ahead callers uh what's on your.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Mind okay ron so um sheppas okay this involves like
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: kind of this involves you and the.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Boss lady me and the boss lady what's that me
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: and the boss lady what about her yes yes.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Yes so First of all, I agree with you. Me
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: and you are on the same page 90, 95% of
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: the time. Well, that's the same with the boss lady.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: I like the boss lady, you know, but I take
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: exception to what you two said about Shepis and his career.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: You said, and correct me if I'm wrong, you said
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: that he shouldn't be using law enforcement in his ads.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: And you also, and the boss lady, I believe said
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: that he was just a security guard.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: No, he was a person.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: On the money with what I'm saying?
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: You know, you're not on the money. First of all,
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: we're beating a dead horse. That was during the commissioner's race.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: But in reality, I was saying that I think it's
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a little misleading. His ads were at that particular time
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: implying that he wasn't an FBI agent or he wasn't a.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: U.S.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Marshal or this kind of stuff. You know, I can
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: say I'm in federal law enforcement or I'm in Homeland Security. Well,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I'm a TSA agent at the airport. Things can be
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: deceptive in their things. He worked at a prison and
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: was a prison counselor. And that's all well and good.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with that. It's something that's necessary. And
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: so we've got to have a place to lock people
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: up and make no mistake about it. But say exactly
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: what it is. That's what I'm saying. Be more specific
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: in it as opposed to putting something out there. That
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: that isn't as specific. But anyway, that was the bottom.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: The bottom line is he ran a pretty good campaign.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: He came in second for Mahoning County Commissioner. I mean,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: this is a Republican primary, just as people know. So
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: he came in second to Christine Oliver. But he ran
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: a good campaign. It was really a two person race.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: And he did. I thought he did respectable, quite frankly,
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: coming in, coming in second to Christine Oliver, who ran
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: an excellent campaign as well.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: Well, I think Christine Oliver was– I think the person–
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: she won, and I think that's who should have won.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, that's– obviously, that's how it comes. You know,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: she ran a great campaign, and he ran a decent campaign, too.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can't take that away from him. He
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: ran a pretty good campaign. Pretty good campaign to come
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: in second. I mean, these are primaries, and they're a
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: good thing to have. It's where I give people credit
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: for entering a race and saying, okay, I'm going to
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: give it a shot. And then the primary determines who
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: your candidate is going to be. And that person will
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: go up against Lauren McNally, who's a Democrat. I just
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: can't imagine her... As a commissioner, but there's half of
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: this community. Basically, it's a 50-50 community. Half of it's Democrats.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: You know, so. I mean, that's our process.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: Back to Shepard. He wasn't just a cop. That was
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: his job toward the end of his career.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, he worked at the prison.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: He worked at. Yeah, he worked at the prison. He
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: took inmates out on medical trips. He did a lot
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: of things in law enforcement, period.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: When I think federal law enforcement, I think FBI. When
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: I think federal law enforcement, I think the federal in
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: that sense. Just be more specific about it. It doesn't
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: really matter. I mean, you know, and I'm not trying
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: to pick on you like I'm wasting my time, but
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I'm wasting my time. The primary's over. She won, and
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: he came in second, so what... What else you got
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to say?
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: My point being, I would like to invite you and
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: the boss lady to have a tour of SCI Elkton,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: and you could see what law enforcement there is.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Okay, listen. Don't take offense to this, all right? Because
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: obviously you take a lot of this way too personal.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: As I said then, as I would say now, When
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I think of law, the cop that's out there on
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the beat, all right, and I'm not saying that prisons
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: don't have their issues, but you're in a controlled environment
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: in a prison, okay? A police officer is stopping a car.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: A state trooper is stopping a car out on that highway,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: and he doesn't know what he's getting into by himself
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: in the middle of the night without a lot of
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: guys anywhere close to him. And a lot of the
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: people that you got in your prison, that guy arrested
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: on his own. All I'm trying to say is that
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of different aspects of law enforcement. I
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: agree with you. I'm not going to get into all
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: of this craziness that you want me to get into
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: about it.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I agree with you 100% about the law enforcement. Why
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: don't you come down? Why don't you and the boss
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: lady come down? I'll give you the tour. And you
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: can see what it's all about inside there.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, I don't have a problem with that.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: My biggest problem is I don't have a lot of
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: spare time. That's my biggest problem.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Neither do I. Neither do I. But listen, I'd love
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: to take you in the box.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: All right. Write me an email. It won't be any
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: time for a while. I can tell you that.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: I'd love to take you in the box, lady, for
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: lunch afterward, too. So, okay, we can talk about it.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: All right. But you have to understand that, as I said,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: it's not a slam even on cops. There's a lot
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: of dangerous jobs, too. It's not just cops. The guy
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: that's roofing your house is a dangerous job. All right.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: You know, I mean, this idea that the only dangerous
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: jobs are like somehow the government jobs, the guy that's
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: on your roof, you know, if you've got a 612 pitch,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: that's a damn dangerous job.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: The guy climbing these cell towers or these radio towers,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: four or five hundred feet in the air, that's a
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: damn dangerous job. The electrician, the guy that goes out
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: for Ohio Edison in the middle of a storm to
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: put your power back on in a storm is a
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: damn dangerous job. So, you know, I mean, everybody's got
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a unique thing. Just be specific about it. You know,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, like, for example, you could say, well, I'm
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: a lawyer. OK, well, what kind of lawyer are you?
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Because there's various kinds of lawyers. You know, and they're
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: all different. Well, I'm an estate attorney. Well, that's much
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: different than a criminal attorney. You follow me? I mean,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: you get into broad categories, but the categories are different.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: It's like alcohol. Here's alcohol. Well, what is alcohol? Well,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: wine is alcohol. Beer is alcohol. But so is Jack Daniels.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Just be more specific. You know, that is all. You've
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: got to have a place to lock people up. You've
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: got to have prisons. The cops have got to have
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: some place to take somebody. They've got to lock them up,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: and you've got to have prison guards and people that
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: deal with that situation. Okay? I'm not saying it's a
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: walk in the park, but needless to say is just
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: be specific about it.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Ron, I retired from down there, okay? My job was
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: not for the faint of heart.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I had to deal with those cons day in and
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: day out.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: But it's, it's pretty intimidating when you walk on that
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: compound and you've got 800 inmates walking around the compound open.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: You know, it's not, and yet, and it's also intimidating
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: when you're one officer per 300 inmates inside the housing unit.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: So, you know, it's, it's, uh, you know, I'm sure
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: there's not just one. I would imagine you have other
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: help there and other tactics set up.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: What I'd really like to do is let you see
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: it like when it's 4 to 12 shift, when there's
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: 1,800 inmates on the compound or 1,800 inmates open compound,
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: and there's only 20 or 30 staff. I'm just saying it's,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: you know, things can kick off any time, too.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Things can happen, but that's the job, you know, that's
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: what you signed up for. I hate to say it,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: but that's what you retired from. You retired after how long?
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: You retired sooner than somebody could in the private sector, right?
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Heck, yeah. They force you out. Federal law enforcement. Mandatory retirement, 57.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: So there's the perk that you got as opposed to
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: waiting until you're 67 or 65 or whatever, 62. Yes, yes.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: So, I mean, that's just..
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: So I retired, and then I hooked up with your boy,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: John Arnold. Just so you know.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Well, okay. And John's made a lot of people a
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: lot of money. You think that's an easy job? I mean,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: you know, here's what I've learned in life, folks. There's
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of hard jobs. You know, there's a lot
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: of hard jobs. And they're difficult jobs in many, many
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: different ways. All right? And I just don't. I can't
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: imagine being an emergency room doctor dealing with some kid
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: that comes in all messed up from an auto accident.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Can you? Or trying to save that kid's life?
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Do you think I want to go down and hang
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: out at the emergency room and watch him do his job?
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Absolutely not. I'm glad people... are there that do something
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: like that. I wouldn't want to go hang out with
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: my wife dealing with cancer people day in and day out,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: day after day, which reminds you how precious life can
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: be and how quickly life can end. It all depends
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: on your priorities. Most people don't understand what somebody does
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: till they actually go do the job. You don't understand
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: what's involved in being a carpenter till you're a carpenter.
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: A lot of people look down on so many jobs. Listen,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I need the garbage guy. He doesn't ever get a
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: day off. If they get a Thursday holiday, he's got
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: to work on the weekend to make that day up.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's so many jobs that we need everybody
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: in the roles that they have. It's just– I don't know.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: That would be the end of it. But– I appreciate
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: your invite.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: And thank you.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: My point exactly being when you try to walk in
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: someone else's shoes and see what they do for it,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean? That's my point.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: All right, but I'm not going to dwell on it.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: I cannot go with everybody on their job, all right?
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: I got one here that I've got to deal with.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: This occupies so much of my time. All right, thanks
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: for your call. You're on the air.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: You're on the air. The average investor should not be
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: speculating in options. The average investor should be patient long-term
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: buy and hold investor. And SpaceX is the most overvalued
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: stock in history. And since SpaceX lost $ 5 billion last year,
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: if you divide the price per share by its earnings,
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: which is zero, the price-to-earnings ratio is infinity. Now, if
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: that's not an overvalued stock, I don't know what is. Now,
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: the time to short sell an investment is when it
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: is overvalued and overbought. Now, the option guy should have
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: short sold, or even better, bought put options on SpaceX
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: when it reached overbought territory, which was over 200 a
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: share around 2 o'clock last Tuesday. After that, SpaceX dropped
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: almost $ 171 a share, a huge drop in price. Anyone
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: who shorted SpaceX or bought put options when it reached
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: overbought territory, they would have made a lot of money.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: And Michael Burry, the author of the big short, said
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: he's considering shorting SpaceX. Michael Burry, Ron, was the guy
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: that made $ 1 billion shorting subprime real estate.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Well, then let him do it. You're so far over
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: my head, I can't even carry on a conversation with
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: you about it. All right? I'm just going to be realistic.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I understand when the one caller says, George says enough
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: of the stock stuff that's over everybody's head, and I
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: agree with that.
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's why I said the average person should not
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: be speculating.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Right, right. I mean, most people don't understand this, including me.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, now people that call the show that think they're
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: experts in investing.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Well, everybody's got their own thing. I talked to a
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: gentleman earlier on the program. Is he an expert? Well,
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: I can tell you he's done extremely, extremely, extremely well
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: in seven-figure wells. So I'll listen to what he has
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: to say. I'll listen to what you have to say.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: But I'm not going to dwell on puts and shorts
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: and stuff that most people don't understand. You know, that's
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: an old category with guys like you and Arnold and
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: that guy and people like that. The average person buys
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: and sells, and that's about it.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: Well, that's why I've always said John Arnold gave your
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: listeners great advice. Don't listen to these people that call
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: the show that think they're experts on investing. Listen to
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: John Arnold or the guys at Rockport Wealth Management, which
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: are certified financial planners. Those are the people to listen to.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, I just wish people would have a basic...
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I'll say this again. I would say that if you are...
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: If you were 18, 19, 20 or whatever, just getting
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: started out working, you should have a Roth IRA, period.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, if I had to give advice, any young
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: person should have a Roth IRA and try to put
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: $ 7, 000 in it a year. If you can't put seven
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: in it, put five. If you can't put five, put four.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: If you can't put four, put three. Whatever you can do,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: open a Roth IRA now. if you're a young person.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Because when you become my age, you will be, in
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: most cases, a multimillionaire if you make the commitments to
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: put money in that every year and have the discipline
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: to do it. It grows tax-free.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Well, that's great advice, and I'll go one step further.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: I'm bullish on undervalued stocks, bearish on overvalued stocks, and
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: neutral on fair-valued stocks. So if you had a professional
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: like John Arnold, for example, I have four mutual funds
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: that only invest in undervalued stocks. Like Warren Buffett said,
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: you just start saving at a young age, and by
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: the time you're ready to retire, you could be a millionaire. Right.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, even with the Buffett strategy, if Roth is
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: a great... The government's given people a Roth IRA, which
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: means you take tax dollars and you put it in,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: and it grows... And you're tax-free, so all your gains
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: are tax-free. Plus, you're not required at 73 to start
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: taking it out. It's the greatest tool you could have
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: for anybody that's, what, 20, 30, 40, 50. You should
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: have a Roth IRA. Stand by, Frank. Hang on a minute.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Back after this. News, weather, and talk station, 570 WKBN.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Back to it. News Radio 570 WKBN, 425 here in

  Speaker 6: I'm all right. It's a little cold and muggy out there.
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: I don't know what's going on with the weather here, Ron,
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: but it's a little bit annoying.
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Listen, Grandma, it's 65 degrees. It's not that bad.
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: I'm avoiding a sweatshirt on right now. It's freezing.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Well, that's odd that you would say that because, you know,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: I sit here in the radio station, which... You know,
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: with this air conditioning, this room can be like a
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: meat cooler. So I, too, have a sweatshirt on just
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: because of the air conditioning.
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: Do you have a little space heater?
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: No. No, I don't need a space heater. Listen, listen here.
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: Are you sure?
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: I'm sure. You have a sweatshirt on. I have a
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: sweatshirt on. Only because I'm in this. It depends where you.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: They keep these studios kind of on a cool side.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: So it is what it is. I'll get over it.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Trust me.
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: You know, it has come to my attention that you've
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: met my sister and have talked with her a couple times.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: Your sister?
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: I have met her. Mm-hmm.
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: Is that hilarious?
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I don't remember. Where did I meet her?
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: She said that you might remember that she told you
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: if you wanted good Italian food to go over to
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: the Ladies of the Dukes in Newcastle.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: When was this? I got to try to recall this.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: I very well could have met her.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: Well, no, you did. You did.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: You did. You will know her mother-in-law.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: I will know. Really?
• 17:09
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Now I'm very intrigued. I know. I know. I would
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: know her. I would know her mother-in-law.
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: And you would know my sister to fear, probably. You
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: probably would know her to fear.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: What a small world this is.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: Crazy.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's God's hands saying, okay, you'll meet this sister,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: the sister of the future boss lady, the great caller
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: on the program, the intelligent boss lady. She never said, hey,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: my sister's really smart and really informed when it comes
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: to all of this government issues.
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: Well, my sister that you met, actually, is just as, well,
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: first of all, she's a lot spicier than I am.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: I think so. I can't remember her being that smart
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: when I met her.
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: She's very smart, and she's very spicy.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: She's loud. In fact, oh, my God, yeah.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, she, yeah, she's good.
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: And she's very politically.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Informed, right?
• 18:16
  Speaker 6: But, yeah, I thought that was so funny.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, why do you suspect then both of you,
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: you know, so many people, particularly, I hate to stereotype,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: particularly women don't pay attention to a lot of this stuff.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, what motivates you guys, which I think is
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: admirable because I think it's part of being a good citizen,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: to be an informed citizen and pay attention to all
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: of this kind of stuff?
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I think I told you before for years.
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: I mean, for over a decade.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Stand by. Stand by. Stand by. I'm coming back to
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: the boss lady. News Radio 570 WKVN and Ron Verbs.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Stay tuned. News Radio 570 WKVN.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: This report is sponsored by Taking a Walk Podcast.
• 18:55
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: I'll get back to Frank. I remember I had him
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: on hold, but I got to go to the boss
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: lady here. All right. So fire away, boss lady. What
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: seems to be on your mind today?
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: No, I really don't have much on my mind. I
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: heard the last caller who, you know.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: He wants to take you to the prison.
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: What's that?
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: He wants to take you to the prison. How about
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: that guy?
• 19:17
  Speaker 7: Listen, if I was in charge of that prison, everybody
• 19:20
  Speaker 7: would be in lockdown 24-7 because I.
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: Am taking none of their crap.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: I mean, I get it. Those guards have a tough job.
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: I'd be to listen. I'd have my billy club out
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: the whole time, and they'd be in lockdown. They'd never
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: get out of their cell. It'd be a very easy
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: job for me, and I know I can't do that,
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: so that's why I probably wouldn't get it.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: I think you'd be very good at it because look
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: at how well-trained your husband is. I mean, you got
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: him under control. I'm sure he was an independent thinker
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: and a normal guy till all hell broke loose.
• 19:53
  Speaker 7: No yeah i mean no ill will towards jeff it's
• 19:55
  Speaker 7: a campaign i mean i you.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: Know right i mean it's right i'm just uh basically
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: saying that you're not a sworn law enforcement officer, like a,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: like a cop or a state trooper or anything like that.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: It's just, it's just trying to be precise. Let me
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: put it that way. I don't know, but it is
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: what it is. Any, you know, it is what it is,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: but we shall see. I mean, you got Christine Oliver
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: running against Lauren McNally. So that's, that's a ways off yet.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, when that's November, it's June now. I'm not
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: even thinking about it.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: Are you?
• 20:30
  Speaker 7: No, I haven't been thinking about it, and I haven't
• 20:32
  Speaker 7: seen much, anything from McNally at all.
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: I don't even, you know, I don't know. I mean,
• 20:39
  Speaker 6: I haven't even heard a word from her on the
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: campaign trail. Have you seen anything?
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen anything. Well, the only thing I've ever
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: seen is Amy Acton, they say, in the polling is
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: doing very well. It's either neck and neck with Ramaswamy
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: or she's slightly ahead, which it doesn't surprise me. If
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: you remember... when they were talking about having Tim Ryan
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: into the race, I said that I think that would
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: be a bad idea. And I said, I think Amy
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Acton will do better than Tim Ryan will do because first,
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I hate to say it, many women will vote for
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: her because she's a woman. She has a very likable
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: approach when she's speaking to people. She's got a lot
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: of great assets to be the candidate. And I think
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: That's why Tim Ryan decided he wasn't going to run,
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: because he realized that he wouldn't be as... I think
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: that when push came to shove, the party was trying
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: to make him their candidate, but I don't think they
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: realized how good a candidate they had in her as
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: far as name recognition and just her style in general.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: And she's doing quite well in the polls. Now, I
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: would never vote for her, but there's plenty of people
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: that will.
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: Exactly, and I think you're right. Her disposition is pleasant,
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: but we all know what she did there. We all
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: know how pleasant that was. I mean, there's companies still
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: recovering for what her part in COVID. I was just
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: laughing about it with somebody this morning about it. I mean,
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: I don't know. But she does have a pleasant disposition
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: and demeanor about her when she's approaching people.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: And I don't know what there is, like Ramaswami, here's
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: his negatives. Tell me if you agree or disagree with that.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of people look at Ramaswami as
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: an outsider. They don't look at him as like an
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Ohioan to a large extent. They view him as kind
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: of an outsider. or a carpetbagger, and they view him
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: as a guy that just wants to become governor to
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: try to run for president at some point. And he
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: upsets a lot of people, like, with his support of
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: these HB1 visas and this kind of stuff. So, I mean, he's...
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: I think that's right.
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: I think they see him as an outsider for sure,
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: Silicon Valley, you know, that he's a rich boy.
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: But, you know, listen, you know, he's definitely educated. I
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: don't agree with him on everything, and honestly, I'm going
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: to vote for him.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: You know, sometimes you've got to make that choice, the
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: lesser of two evils.
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: It's not the ideal candidate, but..
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: No, not for me either, and I really loved him.
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: I mean, if you would have told me a year
• 23:14
  Speaker 6: ago that I would have been saying this to you today,
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: I would have not believed... I mean, I really loved him.
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: He's kind of got..
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: You know, I don't know. Then you get into, if
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: you look at some of this stuff, I mean, here comes,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: I laugh, boss lady, when I see these Sherrod Brown
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: commercials on TV. If I'm elected, I'm going to do this,
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: and I'm going to do this. And I sit back,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: and I think to myself, you were there forever. Why
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: didn't you do it when you were there? I mean,
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: he's running like he's never been, and it's the hypocrisy
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: of it. And if I get elected, I'm going to
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: make sure that you can't do insider trading. Well, wait
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: a minute. You were there forever. Why didn't you take
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: care of that when you were there? And you know,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: if you get reelected, you're going to do nothing about it.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: That you're the typical politician that will tell people what
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: they want to hear, but you won't do a damn thing.
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: Because people will fall for it.
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: That's the sad part. Yeah.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Because it's like he's been there so long and he's
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: got name recognition and he's I don't know. It's hard
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: for me to imagine. Why would I vote for him
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: when he supported everything Biden believed in, the open border?
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, he defended Biden. He's a far left liberal wacko.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: All of this kind of stuff with you got to
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: change the words. You can't use this word anymore because
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: it's got to be generic. It's got to be birthing parent.
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: Doesn't that scare you?
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: Because that scares me.
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: My God, I hope to gosh, you know, Ohio does
• 24:45
  Speaker 7: a good job this election.
• 24:47
  Speaker 6: And that, you know, our..
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, I can't vote for Sherrod Brown. I can't
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: vote for a Democrat. I mean, he is as wacky
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: as Joe Biden was on all that changing the words
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: around and all this kind of stuff. So now I
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: can't vote for him. So, you know, I vote for Houston.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: And there's no way he can vote for Amy Acton,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: so I've got to vote for Vivek. Because, I mean,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: he's just the better choice, in my opinion. I don't
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: want Ohio to become this far-left progressive state where she
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: wants to take it.
• 25:21
  Speaker 6: That's exactly right. I mean, and they are definitely far-left.
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: And if we think about how people are complaining about
• 25:29
  Speaker 6: their taxes now, Amy Acton is far-left. All the spending
• 25:34
  Speaker 6: she can dream of. We'll just have more and more
• 25:36
  Speaker 6: and more of it.
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: So enough of all of that kind of stuff. And
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: I want to see what happens when this deal gets,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: as this whole mess goes on in the Middle East
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: and see where everything lands in a couple weeks from
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: now as far as where are we going to be
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: on gas and oil.
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: I've had it with Iran and Israel. I'm so done
• 25:59
  Speaker 6: with both of them. I don't even know where to begin.
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: And Netanyahu, I don't even..
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: Listen, I was the one who was screaming, oh my God.
• 26:09
  Speaker 7: Poor Israel, poor Israel. I mean, they took these women
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: and children out of their bed. And I was totally against.
• 26:15
  Speaker 6: Palestine, Hezbollah, all the wackos over there. And then now
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: it's getting to the point where it's like..
• 26:23
  Speaker 8: You know, Benjamin Netanyahu, he.
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: Will not stop.
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: Like, he won't stop. He never led good enough. You know,
• 26:29
  Speaker 7: it'd be good enough.
• 26:30
  Speaker 6: Like, if he throws one more missile, I'm going to
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: lose my mind. And, you know, this is costing us,
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: and we're involved in everything. It's just frustrating. I don't
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: even care who's right anymore.
• 26:41
  Speaker 7: I don't even care.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: I'm with you 100% now. Let me shift gears. Now,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: did your husband have a great Father's Day?
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: He did. We had a great day, yeah.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Did you? Yeah. Make any food, or did he go
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: out and get it?
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: No, I cooked.
• 26:58
  Speaker 7: I cooked, and my mother-in-law brought food over, too, and
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: we had family over.
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: It was nice, and, you know, it was nice.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Was he at least king of the castle for one day?
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: Yes, he was king of the castle.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'm just saying.
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: Yes, I let him be king of the castle.
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: I went up until 9 o'clock.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: I tell you, all right, boss lady. You're a joy. Oh,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: thank you. Thank you.
• 27:26
  Speaker 9: Bye.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: She's a joy. Frank, are you there?
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm there, Ron.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I punched on a rotation. But go ahead
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: with your thoughts, my friend.
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: Shame on you.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: Hey, remember last week you asked me, did I buy SpaceX?
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Because as soon as it opened for trading, it was
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: already way up.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: And not SpaceX because I can't. give specific advice, but
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: any investment that has a big run, wait for profit-taking
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: to come in. Ron, you know SpaceX hit a high
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: of $ 224 a share, and it closed at $ 187 a
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: share last Thursday, and today it's down a whopping 16.43%.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: In other words, anybody that had bought SpaceX... right after
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: it went public, would probably be losing a small amount
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: of money. And anybody that's bought SpaceX a few hours
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: later or the next day or wherever, would have big
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: losses right now.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: It's at $ 154 a share, SpaceX.
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: The IPO was $ 135, so I suspect if you bought it,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: then you made money. But it's one of those things
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: that's going to be interesting if you would buy it.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: If you were younger, buy it and sit on it
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: for a period of time. I mean, I'm talking... You
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: never know. How many times have you heard people say,
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: I wish I would have bought Amazon when it was
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: just getting started. I wish I would have bought NVIDIA
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: when it was first getting going. Everybody looks back on
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: hindsight and says, I wish I would have got in then.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: And well, I think SpaceX has that same type of
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: aura about it. That's all I'm saying is a lot
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: of people say, oh, I don't care if it's 154.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: I'm going to buy it and hang on to it
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: for 10 years or 20 years or whatever, because they
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: think it'll be. that it'll be a huge number as
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: time goes on and they'll make a bunch of money.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: And they might.
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, you had that one caller that said
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: that I was bearish on the stock market and he's bullish. Well,
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: when it comes to AI stocks, I actually own some
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: of the largest AI stocks, but that's because they're undervalued.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: Most AI stocks are way overvalued. And, you know, when
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: you talk about data centers, data centers will make all
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: the profits and homeowners will pay all the bills. Now,
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: AI revenues, Ron, are orders of magnitude lower than the
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: sums being invested. Right now, most AI stocks, companies are
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: not working out. There's a few that are going to
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: be real big, probably SpaceX, but most of them, if
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: investors buy these AI stocks because they're in the vogue
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: and they Listen to these callers that call to show
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: how great AI stocks are. They'll probably end up losing
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: money like the dot-com bubble.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, AI's a coming frontier. I mean,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: I think everyone would agree that's where things are heading.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: But like I said to that other guy, Curry's the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: guy's name. I was listening to Curry, the, what do
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: you say, oil guy. And Curry seems to think that
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the sector..
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: You talking about Al Berman?
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: Not Al Berman. No, I'm talking about Curry.
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, Curry.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Curry. I forget his first name. Where he's saying
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: you should be, he thinks the segment to be in
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: is oil and minerals and electrons, which is electricity. I mean,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: because there's such demand for all of this stuff, and
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: there will be huge demand for oil because we depleted
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: so much of the oil reserves, both here and in
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: other countries. The oil reserves have been being drained, so
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: you've got to restock those. And he just thinks oil
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: is the place to be and minerals, rare earth minerals.
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: And I think, am I saying it right? I think
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: electrons is what they say, basically electricity for the other one.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: He thinks that's the segment to be in.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Well, I agree because I have a lot of gold,
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: silver reserves. uh... platinum palladium i have a lot of
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: copper that's correct also some more uranium and nuclear energy uh...
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: stocks but right now uh... most rare earth elements are
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: overvalued and there's not a lot of them right stocks
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: a trade out there but yet today will come but
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: you're absolutely right because like copper like you mentioned the
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: demand for copper is forecasted to be enormous and warren
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: buffett He has recently bought a lot of copper stocks, too.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: So that's why, you know, I tell people that..
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: It's just a big demand. It's right. It's a big
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: demand for all this AI stuff that needs a lot
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: of those rare earth minerals.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: You want to buy and hold for the long run.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: For example, I bought an oil..
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Hey, Frank, Frank, you can't buy and hold for the
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: long run because there ain't a lot of long run left, buddy.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: Well, maybe it's good I sold this oil and gas
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: oil exploration company after it went to overbought territory, because
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: now it had a big drop, and most analysts have
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: downgraded it from buy to sell, so I got out
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: just in time.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: There you go. S & P 500 falls, this big
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: tech and SpaceX struggle. All right, Fort Lauderdale, Frank, go
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: take care of them young women. He's got like a
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: harem down there. A harem of young women in Fort Lauderdale.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Let me see here. Good afternoon, 449 in the afternoon.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: It's Monday. Can you believe it's almost the end of
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: June already? It's June 22nd. I mean, it's not that
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: far before we hit the end of June. Then we're
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: into July. Then August. Then the fair. And then in
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: the blink of an eye, there goes another. I know
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: I'm rushing it. I know I'm rushing it. But, I mean,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: it's almost the end of June. And I kind of
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: dig this weather. I mean, I like it. I loved
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: last week on how it was windy and cool and
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. And even today, it's 64
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: and cool. We need the rain. It's been awful dry.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: So I'm not bellyaching about it. Ohio weather's rather pleasant.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: My daughter was telling me down in Floridia, I should
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: ask for Lauderdale Frank. She was saying down in the
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: Orlando area, it was just really, really hot and humid yesterday. Gee,
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: there's a shocker. You're on the air.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: You're right.
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: The summer is flying by, and pretty soon it'll be
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: time for the Canfield Fair.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: I talked to Brian Massey today.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 34:21
  Speaker 5: I told him to call you today and update you.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Well, he did. And so... I found out exactly as
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: you said, we got enough signatures in 44 counties. Now
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: it's just getting volume. And you can get them from
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: any of the counties, the volume you get. Basically, what's
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: the actual number that's needed?
• 34:44
  Speaker 5: The actual number is 413,488.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 34:47
  Speaker 5: And he wants to go 200,000 over it, basically. Yeah.
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: The next governor's race could change that number, that required number,
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: because if less people vote, then we'll need a little
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: bit less than 413, 488. But then again, if more
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: people vote, we'll need a little bit more. It goes
• 35:07
  Speaker 5: by the governor's rate.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: And you've got a year from now until next when, June, July?
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: Yep, June 1st. We've got to get him in by
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: June 1st to Brian. And I have a new signing station,
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: another signing station in Mahoning County, as if it wasn't
• 35:21
  Speaker 5: enough that I have Creekside Auto.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Stand by. Wait a minute. Stand by. I've got to
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: do my break, and then I'll come back to you.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: The hardest working woman trying to change your property taxes.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Back with Denise after this. All right, so you have
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: some more signing stations, you said.
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: Yes, I picked up another one over the weekend. It's
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: in Cornersburg, which is pretty convenient for a lot of people.
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: It's called JMJ Spiritual Connection. It's like the last brick-and-mortar
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: Christian bookstore around. That's on 3434 Canfield Road. They're open
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: Monday through Saturday. So, I mean, you know, I'm trying
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: to make it as easy as I can. You can
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: go there. You can go to Leonard Truck and Trailer
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: in North Jackson. You can go to Creekside Auto Repair
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: in Struthers. You can go to Southgate Pizza in Boardman.
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: And Bursland Outfitters in Alliance. So, we've got five from
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: Mahoney County, which is pretty good. But the other thing
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: you could do, and especially if you've already signed, is
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: just download a petition and circulate among your friends and
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: family and neighbors, okay? Because if you can get us
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: 20 or 30, if everyone does that across the state,
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: we're going to easily make this happen. Just go to axohtax.com,
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: and you can download a petition, and if you have questions,
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: give me a call.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Well, there you go. Man, this is terrific. I mean,
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: I'm glad you're plugging along. I mean, it seemed to
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: me just in talking to Brian Massey, you have a
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: lot to be proud of this community, Mahoning, Trumbull, Columbiana Counties.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: This area seems to be just a diamond in the
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: rough when it comes to getting signatures because of people
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: like you working so hard. You're out there in the
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: boss lady.
• 37:01
  Speaker 5: It's helping tremendous. I mean, that's the main piece right
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: there is your show, I think.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: Well, I think it's a good cause. Why would anybody
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: not want to sign? It's just to give you the
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: opportunity to vote on something. It's like signing somebody's petition
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: that's running for office. What's the big deal? It doesn't
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: mean you're going to vote for them or not vote
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: for them. You're just signing a petition to say put
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: their name on the ballot. Give people the opportunity to
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: do that. It's not that big a deal. Yeah.
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: Well, we're doing this because our governor won't do this.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: So we have to do it ourselves. So that's why
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: we're out here, you know, just collecting all the time.
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: And I'll do the canceled fare again. That's going to
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: be a go. But that's why we have to do
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: it ourselves. And people are fearful sometimes, like, well, what's
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: going to happen? Well, how about the state cut spending? Like,
• 37:47
  Speaker 5: that's the biggest thing they should do. And people can't
• 37:51
  Speaker 5: seem to get that through their heads because this is
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: the only way they've known it to ever be done,
• 37:55
  Speaker 5: and they think it can't be done any other way.
• 37:58
  Speaker 5: Nothing's further from the truth, you know?
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. Well, keep plugging along.
• 38:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just wanted to comment. I mean, you know,
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: the reason Christine Oliver won the primary is because she
• 38:09
  Speaker 5: outworked her opponents.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. I don't know why that's so hard for people.
• 38:12
  Speaker 5: It's not because of what you say on the radio.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: She ran a great campaign is why she won. Thank you.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Appreciate it.
